Sountrack synchronization problem

I am attempting to combine prerecorded video with animation in Anime Studio Pro 6.

As my animation gets to frame 9400, I begin to develop problems with the video soundtrack; i.e., pitch changes or speeding up. Often the soundtrack loses synchronization with the video altogether.

How can I maintain synchronization after this point?

(The video is recorded at 30fps and has key frames every 24 frames.)

I'd recommend that you put together shorter scenes in Anime Studio, and combine them later on using a video editor.

Thank you.

That is probably the only solution.

Even changing the key frames to every 10 frames did not help with synchronization.

Even after removing the video layer and then attempting to do the animation synched to the soundtrack, synchronization wasn't possible after frame 9510.

That appears to be the limit.

Maybe I need more RAM.

A 15 minute shot in any animation program is pretty much never heard of and it seems that it might be a resource problem.

I render my animations at every chance I get and splice it all together in a number of editors I have.

Thank you.

You're right, of course.

So I will try to put it together in Premiere Elements rather than "edit" it in Anime Studio.
