VFR Audio Sync not displaying

[matthewr927]

Hello,

I recently made a project in Premier using all iPhone footage. After creating the project I noticed a slight audio desync throughout the video. After a lot of research, it seems that this is caused by the files being VFR. I also saw that you could fix this in newer versions of Premier. However, my "preserve audio sync" option does not display in the panel it should. Am I doing something wrong? Also, is it still the best method to use Handbrake before starting a project? Lastly, is there anyway to fix audio sync after the project has already been created?

as long as your clips are variable frame rate,  I think you'll probably need to fix them and replace them.  Certainly the safest way to proceed.    Can someone confirm that the latest versions of premiere does not require this fix?  I recently completed a project in 2019 in which I suspect this issue was the cause of problems in the final output...  Managed a workaround, but will always fix any vfr clips in the future.

Hi Matt!

Thank you for reaching out. I understand that you're working with VFR and Preserve Audio Sync does not display. It is recommended to use Handbrake for converting VFR media to constant frame rate.

Also, I am sharing a link that shows how to work with VFR media in Premiere  Pro: https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro/faq-how-to-work-with-variable-frame-rate-vfr-media-in-pr...

I hope that helps.

Best,
