I have a project that has been made to be exactly 1:00:00 (one hour) long. The time format is SMPTE Non-Drop. However, when i rendered (using the default MC MPEG-2 CODEC), the resultant .MPG file reported by WMP9 when played to be 1:00:03 in duration. Where does the extra 3 seconds come from?
I've now upgraded to 4.0b and found a few things out of place.
The same project that was 1:00:00 long in 4.0, when opened with 4.0b now shows itself to be 1:00:03.7 in length.
The events and markers are all slightly off from where they were. Looks like i'll have to go through the entire project to make sure nothing got out of synch.
