Audio track visually out of sync with video

Question

My audio and video play in sync but the audio track is sudenly 6 min 57 sec out of sync at 7 minutes into the video (the waveform does not match video). It appears the audio track waveform starts over at about the 7 minute mark but it does not represent the actual audio. I copied a section of this visually repeated audio and pasted in the narration track at the beginning of my video where the wave form matches the Audio 1 track and it is completely different audio.

I have restarted Premiere and restarted computer. Started a new project and get he same result.

The codecs for audio and video listed are both problematic. Converting the video to standard MP4s using the free download Handbrake would resolve your problem. However, that's a lot of work for such long videos. It might be worth using a different video program (like CyberLink PowerDirector) that may better be able to handle these codecs. But that's up to you, but I think this video as is will continue to give you issues in Premiere Elements.

If you want to try to convert the files with Handbrake, here's my tutorial on the specs to use.

This weeks file worked fine. Be doing this for years and that was a first and hopefully last occurrence. Thanks for your help.
