SYMPTOMS
When you play back a movie that you recorded by using Windows Media Encoder 9, the video or the audio stream may end before the other the media stream has ended.



CAUSE
This issue may occur if you stop Windows Media Encoder 9 before the transcoding from one file to another file is complete.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, let the transcoding from one file to the other file finish completely. The file that has finished completely is now synchronized and can be edited to a shorter length through any video editing software.



MORE INFORMATION
When Windows Media Encoder 9 performs a file to file transcode, it does so in an unsynchronized mode. This means that one media stream may lag behind other media streams, then the stream that is behind catches up with the other streams. The difference between two streams can be as much as three seconds.

Additional query words: out of synch
