I'm doing music video's and I'm having difficulties with getting my video
clips to sync up with the word's/lyrics of subject singing...
Don't misunderstand me, it's possible but it is proving to be extremly
difficult.
Am I missing something, perhaps some sort of code when I'm shooting
the clip so I can line it up more accurately with the audio track?
Usually when I do get the clip to sync up, if I drop in a transition
leading to the next clip it will somehow move the previous clip (that I just
spent an eternity on) out of sync again.........maybe I need to upgrade to a
more adequate program?
Confused...

three words:
trial and error.

seriously, as far as I know the only way to do it is exactly what you
describe. expand your timeline to the maximum view (hit the little + sign
as many time as it will let you) as this will provide the most detail in
moving the audio. and as you noticed, don't bother fine tuning any audio
until your done moving the video around. there is no way to lock the two
separate tracks together until you actually render a movie.

Agreed. The only other thing I can add is to suggest getting it all sync'd
and render it. Then import it again and clip it to add transitions.
