Audio Stutter Skipping

[Lighthorse]

I got these Action Camera's (AKASO V50X) I set the record to 2.7K, all is well I can play it on my PC fine with no problems.
When I insert the video into the timeline so that I can edit it, the sound skips like, on and off and on and off, on the whole video.
At first I thought audio update or something but no my other un-edited videos work fine.
Any one have an idea how to fix this.

I just did another, just filming the TV, Its doing the same thing, but sense there is talking the voices sound like chipmunks, the sound is still going off and on.

Can you please right click one of the clips in the timeline and select Properties. Then copy all the Properties -- especially the audio -- here please. That way we will at least know what we are dealing with...

This is the Properties tab

I was going to add a short video so you can hear it but it wont let me.

Oddly enough, your audio settings seem to be fine. It is the video settings which I think are causing the audio to skip. First, the frame size is very unusual at 2716 x 1524. It is far from being a normal size. Then you have a frame rate at that point of 25.31 fps which suggests the camera is using a variable frame rate. Unfortunately, VS doesn't like either unusual frame sizes or frame rates. Trying to deal with them is probably causing the program to trash the audio since it would be trying to play the audio at a normal speed while the video would be clearly out of sync with that speed.

In situations like this we usually recommend that you put the video through a converter program, like the freeware Handbrake, and convert it to a standard frame size (such as 3840 x 2760; 1920 x 1280 or even try 2760 x 1280, though I suspect VS might have trouble with that one too). Then insert the newly converted video into your project instead of the original video.

I tried it on all settings with the same results. 4K, this one 2.7K, 2K or 1920x1080.
I will find Handbrake and give that a try. I saw all the hype and assumed the AKASO V50X was such a hot camera. I am wondering what other people using it are using to edit there videos.
If someone knows please let me know. I will probably have to send these back and get something different.
Thanks

Hey ken Handbrake worked Worked, Thanks.

That's good that Handbrake worked. I am wondering, though, if your camera can be set to use a standard frame size and frame rate... The camera website doesn't give full specs. Just says it can shoot in 4K, 2.7K, 2K and HD, which at least suggests it can be set somewhere to 3840x2760 etc. So I would have thought that would be easy enough. But the variable frame rate would still be a problem for VS. The website talks about 30 fps, which is of course standard NTSC and again suggests the camera can be set to a fixed frame rate, but no instructions how. Interesting, though, that the variable frame rate you show includes 25 in it, which is course the PAL rate. Are you in a PAL or NTSC country?
