When I export a video and play it, the video plays back at half speed while the audio plays at regular speed. I just purchased this software today, and outside of looking through all the settings to see if I could find a reason for this, I have not made any changes.
I'm using Movie Studio 2024 Platinum
OS: Windows 11 CPU: Ryzen 7 5800X GPU: Radeon RX 6800 XT 32GB RAM
Welcome to the Magix user to user forums.
Self-evidently, this is gameplay footage, but what software did you use to record it? Can you read and follow this tutorial to get a MediaInfo analysis of your file as recorded, please? Please paste the results of the Text view here.
Then, please tell us exactly which export template you used; a screenshot of its setting screen would be helpful.
Can you also post a MediaInfo analysis of the exported file? Again, show us the Text results of this.
One thing to check: is the audio sample rate of your gameplay recording the same as the setting in MMS? MMS will normally expect 48kHz.

I used Instant Replay in AMD Adrenaline software to record the video, which looks and runs perfectly fine. Only once I save the edited video in Movie Maker does the video go into slow motion.

Thanks for supplying all that data! It really does help.
An initial very quick read shows these "anomalies", I think.
If that is correct, and I have no reason to doubt what MI is showing, then I think that could go some way towards explaining what you see in your exported footage.
I will tag @johnebaker into this to see whether he has nay further ideas.
One thing to note, please: the software is Magix Movie Studio, NOT Movie Maker!
Jeff
I guess I did type Maker instead of Studio ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ at least I got it right the first time I typed it. The discrepancy of the FPS is strange. Looking forward to any ideas as to what may be causing that to happen.
Hi Brian, Jeff
One immediate 'peculiarity' is in the export settings, the source video is 60.8 Mb/s and 60.000 FPS, in the export settings used, the Average Bitrate setting of 6000 kbits/s (6 Mb/s) and audio bitrate of 120 kbits/s.
This would suggest either:
Were the advanced settings changed and if so, is there a specific reason for the changes, which and to what values? A screenshot of the Advanced settings used would help.
The video settings are, IMHO, way too low for FullHD 1920 x 1080 59.9 fps - the preset default values are Ave: 28000, Max: 35000 kbits/s and audio at 160 kbit/s.

I don't remember changing anything, but clearly, I did something without realizing it. Looking at the screenshot you provided, I compared that to what I'm seeing and see the issue. I messed with the advanced settings and made a new edited video, and everything runs as expected now. Thank you, John and Jeff, for your help.
