Can't trim soundbite despite plenty of underlying material.

Post by Robert Randolph »

So I opened up DP to record a quick VO for a video and I encountered this strange situation.

As you can see in the .gif, it won't let me resize the soundbite. It has a plenty of underlying material to trim it to.

When I click to drag/move the soundbite, you can see the outline that shows a larger soundbite even though I'm seeing only a partial in the Sequence window.

Does anyone have a clue what may be happening here?

I just changed the sample rate from 96khz->44.1khz->96khz and now I can trim the soundbite.

I had a feeling that may be related since it was slightly over half the soundbite that was missing, but I'm totally confused as to why this happened to begin with.

^^^^^

Related issue that seems to be fixed the same way.

No clue what caused it to begin with though.
