Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of.

If you START playback near the end, what happens? Is it in sync? If so, then you have a playback speed issue of some sort. If not, then somehow your clips have some kind of offset happening. If the audio is out by two frames at the end, is it out by one frame at the midpoint of the show?

It's 2 frames off at the end. I can hear the delay when I unmute the movie's audio track and I can see it in the waveform. Yes, it is one frame off in the middle.

Did you import the audio from the video file you got? Put it up against your tracks and see how and where it starts to drift.

See above.

Given the opportunity, I like to ask video editors to put a beep at the beginning and at the end of the OMF, with corresponding flash frames of text in the QT which show those exact TC addresses. Then you know whether you're at least starting off on the right foot.

I agree except it was obvious where the end of the session was as the last audio file ends exactly two frames after the end of the movie file.
