Question

Can not drag audio clip by -00:00:00:00415

Hello,

I am trying to synchronize two clips manually, but for some reason, no matter how much zoomed in I am, I can not drag my audio clip by about -00:00:00:00415. I click on the clip I want to drag, I drag it, I release it, but instead of jumping to where I dragged it, it just stays where it was. Dragging the clip by half a second or so is no problem, but I can not drag it by a small value.

Any solutions? And is there a way to drag it by typing a number instead of using the mouse?

    If your audio has video attached you can only move it by the frame and not audio samples.

    Yes, that seems to be it. I can freely drag the audio clip which has no video attached to it, but not the one that has video.

    Is there a way to change this?

    (turning off snapping makes no difference)

    If you want to move the audio attached to the video in subframe increments, you'll need to un-link it from the video.

    Click on the clip to select it then go to the menu Clip > Unlink. After the move, you may want to relink the repositioned audio back to the video again for ease of editing.

    What happens if you turn off snapping?
