How to fix an elgato video where the audio goes out of sync over time after you import it into your editor.

--------------------

VIDEO BREAKDOWN:
Start - A detailed discussion/demonstration of the problem
04:52 - The ffmpeg solution
09:14 - The "slightly out of sync" problem/solution
11:06 - Summary & Speculations

--------------------

For those of you, like me, that have been forever frustrated with the footage's audio drifting out of sync after exporting the mp4 and putting it in your NLE (I use Premiere Pro), this is for you. It happened on the HD model I used to own, and it happens everytime on my HD60 Pro model as well.

The workaround I found is to use ffmpeg to rip the audio stream from the mp4 file into a separate mp4. Import the newly ripped audio into your program and get rid of the audio track that was out of sync. Fixed! I just put the ffmpeg.exe along with its files into my elgato's export folder (for convenience) and have a AudioRipper.bat file with the following lines:

ffmpeg.exe
ffmpeg -i Footage.mp4 -vn -c:a copy Footage_Audio.mp4

Simply change the name of the input/output file to match your footage; you'll have to change the name to take spaces out. Hope this helps someone out there, searching for answers.

--------------------

SUMMARY:

When you import your footage into the editor:
- Check the sync in the beginning of the video
- Check the sync at the end.
- If the audio drifted out of sync, use the ffmpeg solution
- If the audio seems slightly off, re-align using a reference point
- Check the beginning/end again for any drifting

--------------------

Sidenote: some of the demonstration videos are a bit choppy. This is from me recording this, as I was running OBS, recording 1080p60 with both Adobe Premiere AND Elgato Game Capture open, all of which are resource intensive.
