Audio out of sync in exported iMovie project
I am editing an MP4 recording of a Zoom meeting in iMovie. It is in sync in iMovie, but out of sync when exported. How can I get it in sync to export?
Thx!

Hi, JulieNew,
Try converting your exported movie to H.264, Mp4/AAC with the free download, Handbrake. Do that even if the codec already is indicated to be Mp4/AAC. Re-rendering often cures audio sync issues.
You can get Handbrake here:
A simple way to do it is to open Handbrake and do a File/Open Source. Navigate to your video and choose it as the source from the resulting screen. Then do File/Start Encoding. Wait a couple of minutes for the conversion to complete. Then save the converted clip and see if it plays in sync.

Thanks Rich - that was it. All solved, like magic!
We all need a Harry Potter wand now and then. :)
