Audio Sync

There are many platforms available to audio sync and the focus in determining which platform will suit you the best is dependent on what the audio syncing is used for and connected to. With the ease that is available through technology for individuals to create their own videos and their own audio, and the fact that there are many platforms to upload such videos for sharing on the internet, there is a need to ensure that the audio sync matches the videos in order to optimize viewing and enjoyment of such uploads.

Problems with effective video and audio syncing

There are several problems that can arise when attempting to sync videos with audio that has been recorded separately. Amongst the issues that can arise are:

  • When the video playback does not sync with the audio
  • When the video and audio are not in sync
  • When lip sync problems arise

Specific audio sync issues and possible solutions

These various situations may arise due to several factors, including the computer that you are using in order to sync video with audio. Regardless of the software that is used to achieve this purpose, effective audio sync will require that you have a fairly fast and current computer. This will ensure that the software that you are using will be able to achieve optimum conversion. Commonly when syncing audio with video, it is best to shut down all other programs to ensure the best results.

If the problem arising is that the video you are watching is not in sync with the audio, this may mean that you will require upgrades for your drivers and software. Most of these upgrades are available free from source and you should be able to download the upgrades easily. Always ensure that the upgrades are fully installed before viewing the video again. You will find that upon upgrading the drivers and software, the audio sync problem will be resolved, unless the problem was not as a consequence of your system, but as a consequence of a poor quality recording to begin with.

When converting audio and video for play on your mobile device, this may sometimes cause the video and audio to fall out of sync. The primary cause for this is the fact that the mobile device requires different settings. Therefore, before converting any audio and video files for mobile devices, always check the settings for frame rates on your mobile device in order to ensure that it is capable of supporting what you are interested in converting.

Another issue may be choppy audio that does not sync with the video. Sometimes this may be due to the modem that you are using for download purposes. If you are still using a traditional 56K modem to download, chances are that this will happen. If, however, you already have broadband access, and still face this problem, it may be because your internet service provider is experiencing high traffic volume at the time. The solution in such instances is to reload your internet access and try watching the video again.

All in all, audio sync features have become the norm and related software is included in more recently purchased computers. It is likely that this will serve your purposes unless you are looking for more specialist means to audio sync.
