I have PE V08, and have used it for a number of years. Suddenly it randomly drops the audio. I reload the video clips and audio loss turns up elsewhere. I reload the project and the audio returns. But each time I burn the disc the audio drop-out is at a different place. What is going on??

    If the audio clips are mp3, try converting them to wav before importing in Premiere Elements.

    OK, thanks. Worth a try. Offending files are .avi. I have another response enquiring about system properties, but will need some help here to round up that info. Wifey is off interstate on family business. She will have more clues.

    AVIs are more a category of file rather than a specific file type, Rusty. There are literately thousands of varieties of AVIs, depending on where they came from and how they were created.

    But if you'll give us the specs I asked for above and any information you can about the origin of your AVI, we'll be glad to help you troubleshoot. We do need lots of details though!

    Don't know if I can help.  But, nobody can even guess without a lot more information about the files, the sources, the computer, etc.

    OK thanks. Asking the question was a long shot. Hoping that some-one might have had the same problem that they were able to fix.

    No one can know if they have the same problem if we don't know what operating system you're working on, what processor your computer has, how much RAM and how much free, clean defragmented space is on the hard drive -- and what model of camcorder your video is coming from and how you got the video from the camcorder to your computer.
