There are systems where is certain delay in audio playback path. On these systems Audio Offset is needed to compensate this delay. There are systems where this copensation is not needed. The intended usage of this setting is during setup of cinelerra. Nudge is editing tool. User can use it to synchronize audio/video. Cinelerra assumes that audio and video start exactly at the same time. With digital video this assumption is not always true. > > I have looked at many tutorials on YouTube re Cinlelerra and I cannot see > any of them covering this matter.

Powerful tools are not simple to use. Cinelerra is not very intuitive tool. The manual is quite good, at leat it exists. I recommend to read the manual at least twice and refer to it again during usage.
