Yes, there is no wave form when I press "LL," and there is no audio playback at all. In the instances where it skips around, it is consistent - even when prerender is complete. It's not the "slowing down, etc." you get when it's rendering on the fly and can't keep up. When I talk about groups, it's just adding the files at once. Ironically, the last time this happened to me (yesterday), I had rendered out a single timeline into seven different segments, to bring in as scratch tracks to comp over. One of the seven was "blank." Three others were skipping around. Three were fine. After trying to "reload" in various ways, after confirming that the native files were fine, I just changed the file names of the four, dragged them into the project, and they all worked fine. It's almost as if AE has something beyond cache that "ruins" a particular file as long as it has the same name in the same project. I have had other times where I would actually alter/re-render a source file and "reloading" wouldn't do anything to change it - I would have to close and re-open AE. With this audio thing, even rebooting the whole computer doesn't fix it. As Mylenium mentioned, I haven't tried this with WAVs, so I can't say that it has happened with less compressed formats. I do know that it has never happened with MP4s - which I will also use as scratch files when just doing titling. As far as my system, it's relatively new.
