Large MP4s with Voiceover Don't Play Audio after an Edit

Wayne-McIlvaine wrote on 4/13/2025, 9:31 PM

I imported a 15 minute MP4 clip from OBS of a PowerPoint presentation with voiceover. All video and audio plays fine in the editor until I clip the track and splice two pieces back together. The video after the cut/splice plays fine, but audio remains muted for the next 60 seconds or so, and then suddenly returns to normal.

Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Thanks.

Creating proxies temporarily fixed the issue, but it's now back again.

Files produced from the basic OBS settings can cause problems in other video editors.

These settings work for me. Try them and see if things improve.If you have a 4K monitor adjust the screen recording size accordingly.
