On Export, Left audio is delayed by about half a second, is there a fix?
can you use https://mediaarea.net/MediaInfo and post the text output. maybe there is something malformed in the source that the render engine is unhappy with. as soon as i see sync issues that dont make any sense, i always blame the source media and look to reencode it or somehow repackage it (like with handbrake) into a known and not wierdo format. remember mp4 is just a box. there might be a cat in that box, there might not be a cat at all.
