ATR, sorry I forgot to mention the operating system, it is Windows 7. This is another editor's computer and he is runing APE 12 recently up loaded to a new laptop. . The nature of the video is Quicktime.
He did an edit of another TV show we do with the same equipment and had no problems. Properties are set to: DV Standard 48KHz.
Camera settings. They are studio Cameras recorded through a Tricaster adn down loadec to a Seagate mini ! t hard drive.
I will tell him to do a rendering and see if that helps.
Thanks again for your help.
Cheers adn Peace! Phil
