X6 Pro Multi-Trim Problems with .mov files

[BardenVid]

I've just started using VS X6 Pro, after not doing much with video for a few years. I previously used VS 10 and 9.

We have a canon P&S camera which produces HD H264 mov files which I am editing for the first time and getting a weird problem. The files play fine on the time line, but when I try to use the multi-trim tool I get two issues:
1. Audio is badly out of sync in the multi trim window, like 1/2 second in a 20sec clip. (again, same clip plays fine on the time line)
2. When I make a multiple trim, the "play trimmed video" button does not work properly. eg if I make two selections from a clip with a gap between them, play trimmed video plays the whole clip to the end, then returns to the start of the second trim selection and plays that.

If I load up an mpeg2 .avi clip, the multi-trim tool works perfectly: audio is in sync and it correctly plays only the trimmed sections.

Any ideas? I have enabled smart proxy on the clips, and following another hint in a thread here, I downgraded quicktime to 7.5.5 but neither helped. Also I have installed sp1.

Hi

Video Studio allows you to cut the clips within the timeline using the scissors, then delete the cut section.
you can remove the end sections using the Mark-IN Mark-Out brackets (F4-F3)

I guess that’s a manual multi trim, to be honest I don’t use Multi Trim always do it manually.

If you were to use the scissors do you have problems

I've always done the manual trim, but sometimes the audio becomes un-synced. I want to use multi trim, but that choice is greyed out. I can only do a single trim. I am using avi files. Solution?
