I am adding a video clip (.avi, motion JPEG, 25fps) and an audio file (.wav, signed 16-bit little-endian, 44.1) to the timeline. As I am trying to sync the video and audio, I play a little bit, then stop and nudge one way or the other, then resume playing, etc. However, when I try to rewind, the video resumes playing from where I last stopped. It's like the frames that I played up to that point are gone. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
Len

I'm running this version: kdenlive-0.7.7.1.1.fc12.i686

Clarification: I can rewind the clip by selecting 'Reload clip', and play it from the start in the Clip Monitor. But no matter where I put the playhead on the timeline, the project resumes from where it last left off in Project Monitor.

Your file is not seekable and therefore not suitable for editing. It must be converted first, possibly just remuxed since it is MJPEG: ffmpeg -i bad.avi -vcodec copy -acodec copy out.avi

Yes, thanks. I finally realized that. The following command worked, but probably not the optimal solution:

mencoder capture3.avi -o capture3.2.avi -ovc lavc

I'll try the ffmpeg command you posted. And again, thanks.
