-21- I created a movie with audio using makemovie, but the soundtrack plays back really garbled and choppy. What
do I do?

You created a movie with image and audio tracks of unequal length.
This probably happened because you chose a frame rate for the
movie which caused the image track to not match the length of the
audio track.
There are a few solutions for this problem. The easiest is to
choose a frame rate which makes the image track match the audio
track in length, and then use makemovie to create a new movie file
with the correct frame rate. Another way is to pad the shorter
track (image or audio) out with additional content to match the
longer one.
In IRIX 5.3, Moviemaker will automatically detect movies like these
and offer to correct them for you. You can choose either of the
above methods of correction. If you choose to pad out the shorter
track, Moviemaker adds blank material, which you can later edit.
In IRIX 6.2, the restriction that image tracks and audio tracks must
be the same length has been removed, so this should no longer be a
problem.
