Audio pitch is wrong when played in timeline

[Jeff Vannest]

I'm using the Video Capture Wizard's DV-AVI(NTSC) setting
to capture video from my Canon DV camcorder. The AVI
created is beautiful and plays great in the previewer.
However, when I put a clip in the timeline and press play,
it plays the audio about an octave lower than normal;
everything else seems okay, just the audio's messed up.

What's wrong? It's like MM2 is playing back the audio in
the timeline at the wrong bitrate.

Thanks for your thoughts,
Jeff

Actually, that's not true. When played from the timeline,
the video looks compressed (or more compressed than the DV-
AVI format) and frequently contains the small, "scratchy"
lines on the edges of objects (can't remember what that's
called).

So what the heck is the timeline player doing to mess up
my video playback??

I'm experiencing the same problem with other software.

I just bought a Canon ZR65 and trying hard to reconcile this problem.
I've tried several different pieces of software to capture the DV from
the camera, no luck. If I convert the audio to anything it ALWAYS gets
messed up. If I play the DV file as is from the start it plays fine in
some software and not others. If I skip forward (without playing) and
then begin playing it always sounds messed up.

I have same problem. Audio is high pitched as if speeded
up !

Did you find a solution ?
