Ram preview audio problem

This is the first time i have came across this problem. Im working on AE cs4 on vista 64 .And when i make a ram preview the audio plays back at double the speed. I have gone through the usual suspects ( creating a new file just with the audio, checking preferences, testing the file, different file formats– wav , aiff , even mp3 –) and there is no way i can spot the problem. The funny thing is that if i make an audio preview it goes at the right speed…. im completely clueless and on a tight death line.. Haven’t found anything on the web either..
Thanks in a advance

Nuke Smoke Compositing – Stupid Problem.

Hey guys,

just wondering if anyone can help me with a stupid problem I am having, I am trying to comp smoke over my plate (see attached) and off the bat it seems really simple but I can’t seem to tint this smoke Black, so I essentially want this smoke to be blacker and darker whilst retaining its thickness and exact shape,

Everytime I try to effect the colour I can’t help seeming to effect the Alpha, I have tried copying its alpha to a black constant, using histograms and a few other little bits, even the invert doesn’t seem to visually invert this properly.

Excuse the colour of the smoke it was rendered out pink so it could be seen within a simulation I was just shuffling the alpha to make it white and start from there (plus they were tiff’s I just had to convert to JPEG to upload).

Im’ 99% sure this is such an easy fix and I am just doing something stupid but any help on this would be greatly appreciated,

Kind Regards

Dave
