timeline fault

[Guest]

When I drag (good working video/sound ) clips to the timeline, suddenly in
playback these clips start to stotter/hackle/are not displayed fluently.

The clips are worked at through virtualdub from an avi-file. But after
import they seem to be fine and working. Only after putting them into the
timeline they go bad...

Can anyone tell me why and moreso how can I resolve this??

WHat sort of an avi file are they?
Only dv-avi is guranteed to work properly,

Thanks Graham,

Your website offers a lot of explanation of this matter. The problem lies
perhaps more in the 'skills' of the 'director of the movie....' that's me. I
will need to dig into the matter of various aspects of this movie-making.
As this is probably a one-off movie I will only focus on the solution of
this present problem. Many txs though!

YOu cna find many hints and tips in the tutorials section of my site, along
with some videos to help show you how to go.

www.papajohn.org also has a lot of help in it and is well worth a good read.
