Changing playback rate separates the audio

nothing wrote on 7/22/2024, 2:25 AM

When I changed the playback rate of the clip, it only changes video, but not audio. Thus, the sound doesn't match with the video. The ignore event grouping button is off.
What am I missing?
Vegas 18 Pro.

You can change the playback rate on the audio too. If they're grouped, they should both change together automatically. So make sure they're grouped and make sure you change the length by holding down the CTRL key and drag the mouse to change the length.

If you're typing in the playback rate on properties box, you'll need to change both separately. If you hold down the CTRL key and resize, they'll both change together.

Hi, jetdv.
Thanks for the reply. It works with CTRL key, of course. I'd like to adjust it on properties box, but audio track doesn't have the playback rate function. Take a look.

Video Playback Rate

Audio Playback Rate (you have to set the "new length")

Or, you can do it via a script:

            VideoEvent vEvent = (VideoEvent)myVegas.Project.Tracks[0].Events[0];
            vEvent.PlaybackRate = 2;

            AudioEvent aEvent = (AudioEvent)myVegas.Project.Tracks[1].Events[0];
            aEvent.PlaybackRate = 2;

Let's say you want EVERY selected event to be a playback rate of 2:

            foreach(Track myTrack in myVegas.Project.Tracks)
            {
                foreach(TrackEvent evnt in myTrack.Events)
                {
                    if (evnt.Selected)
                    {
                        evnt.PlaybackRate = 2;
                    }
                }
            }

Personally, the CTRL resize method is really the "best" way as it also resizes the event to match the new speed. Otherwise, it will repeat if you speed it up or suddenly cut off if you slow it down. But the above script segment will let you change the playback rate on any event be it audio or video.

Reaper will resample your audio. Better than dragging or the Elastique plugin in Vegas.

Hi, jetdv.
The two screenshots are too small to see. Could you re-upload them, please?

Try clicking on them which should make them larger.

@nothing you have to click on the image and then it will load the full size image.

@nothing When you reduced the speed it puts a the little black arrow at the top to indicate it's looping.

Choose this right click option & it will trim the video to the correct length to that little black arrow at the top

You can then double click the video & copy the length from the bottom right box. I only did 1.25, the little black arrow at the top is right next to the playback marker.

I just realized this website isn't optimized with Firefox. When I clicked the image in Firefox, the size wasn't changed. It works in Chrome. Thanks.

It was a problem with Firefox. It works in Chrome. Thanks.

Thanks, but it doesn't have the option as my Vegas Pro version is 18.

I checked it out, and found Vegas Pro 18 is different. Take a look.

@nothing Ah I see, I thought this was in that version, you'd just have to drag the video to the little black marker, unless there's an option I'm unaware of.

This is Vegas 18, choose Elastique

That's strange as I use Firefox and it works for me and has done with this forum for around eight years now.
