Wierd audio sync bug in 17.4.3

PostSun Jan 16, 2022 12:19 am

Just spent a merry 2 or 3 hours getting this bug out from my hair:
1) Delete .mov file from timeline (video + scratch audio)
2) Delete .wav for same file from timeline
3) Delete both files from media pool
4) Delete both files from windows using what used to be correctly called the file manager
4) Record new .mov and .wav
5) Rename them the same as the files I just deleted
6) Import both files into media pool and timeline
7) Now the audio can be correctly synced to the video but the waveforms from the original (now deleted) files are there on the timeline in place of the new audio. Making it impossible to do any editing.

Sigh

8) Solution was to rename the new files something else and reimport them to the media pool.and timeline

It's always easy when you know how.
(I'm guessing you have a cache that is not being reset to zero when a file is deleted)
