Video and Audio in Sync
Final Cut Express HD allows you to adjust the synchronization
relationship between video and audio items in a clip. Linked
clip items can be temporarily or permanently unlinked,
resynchronized, and relinked.
This chapter covers the following:
 Linked Sync Relationships Between Video and Audio Clips (p. 397)
 Linking and Unlinking Video and Audio Clip Items in the Timeline (p. 402)
 Selecting Individual Clip Items While They Are Linked (p. 405)
 Getting Clip Items Back in Sync (p. 406)
 Establishing a Different Sync Relationship Between Linked Clip Items (p. 411)
 Learning About Linking Behavior in Audio Channel Pairs (p. 413)
Linked Sync Relationships Between Video and Audio Clips
Linking helps you keep video and audio clip items in sync. Clip items from the same
media file are automatically linked to each other in the Timeline. You can also link
unrelated clip items together.
Final Cut Express HD keeps track of the sync relationship between video and audio clip
items of all QuickTime media files that you’ve captured or imported into your project,
as well as the sync between merged clips.
