What does sync mean?

Syncing means matching audio and video tracks so that they play in alignment. This is especially important in dubbing or recording audio separately from video.

What is the purpose of syncing?

When you sync a video and audio track, the visuals match the dialogue and sound effects in the final output.

How to synchronize video and audio

Align the audio waveform with the visual markers, or use auto-sync tools in most video editing software. Riverside automatically syncs audio and video through a constant frame rate.

Why is the audio lagging behind my video?

Audio may lag behind the video due to a mismatch in frame rates, slow processing, or desynchronization during the recording. This can also happen if the audio and video were recorded separately and weren't synced properly in post-production.
