We have heard this complaint frequently from users of Adobe Premiere—WeVideo and iMovie do not seem to be affected. It is caused by Premiere's inability to handle the variable frame rate recordings made by the Apple products (OBS videos are recorded on a Apple Mac Mini). If you wish to import your mp4 files into Adobe Premiere, you'll need to convert your mp4 files to a constant framerate with the Handbrake application available on all library computers. Follow these instructions and your files will be properly audio-synced when you import them into Premiere.

Why does the sound on my One Button Studio recordings move out of sync?

1 Open Handbrake (on most Library computers)If you wish to download this free, open-source application for your device, visit: https://handbrake.fr/downloads.php

2 Click Source to navigate to the file(s) you wish to convert and Open itNote: The navigation window opens automatically the first time you open Handbrake.

Ensure the correct codec and framerate settingsA) Under the Video Tab, make sure the following settings are applied:

• Set the Video Codec to H.264 (x264)

• Set the Framerate to 29.97 (NTSC Video)

• Select the Constant Framerate option

Add the file(s) to the processing queueReturn to step 2 to add any additional files to the processing queue.

Click Start to begin converting the filesYou may click Show Queue to view the list of files to be converted.

6 Handbrake will prompt you when it’s finished processing the filesThe Handbraked files may now be used inside Adobe Premiere without syncing issues.
