Audio Capture problem

When Capturing from a DV device on to final cut express HD, only audio is "caught". When I checked the scratch bin the audio selection was disabled (like, the check-bow was dimmed and unable to be changed). I'd like to be able to capture audio without using the voiceover feature and having to completely match audio with video. Ya dig?
Thank you (for at least reading this)!

then why is FCE capturing video but not audio. all the settings are correct, the only thing i fan find wrong is the "audio capture" check box in sratch disk settings under system settings is nulled to where you can't do anything to it. So, unless it's normally like that, I'd say it has something to do with the way it captures audio.
so, please tell me that has nothing to do with it so I can find another reason why it won't capture audio.

Audio Capture problem in Mac OS X 10.7.5 in Mac mini(in Silverlight)

I got a mac mini and upgrade Mac OS X 10.6.x --> 10.7.5.
However do not hearing the audio in Webpage using Silverlight.(10.6. version doing well)
So, I found the solve this problem, that is a audio capture problem.( My device does not supported Stereo audio data).
this is the source in audio capture using Silverlight code.
CaptureSource source = new CaptureSource()
                        AudioCaptureDevice = CaptureDeviceConfiguration.GetDefaultAudioCaptureDevice()
                    try
                        foreach (AudioFormat af in source.AudioCaptureDevice.SupportedFormats)
                            if (af.Channels == 1 && af.BitsPerSample == 16 && af.SamplesPerSecond == 8000)
                                source.AudioCaptureDevice.DesiredFormat = af;
                                break;
af.Channels is always af.Channel == 2(Stereo)
--- the question is
How can I caputure audio channel mono?
If couldn`t, how can I transfered audio capture data stereo to mono?
Please answer the question as soon as possible ^^

Ti4800 & audio capture problems

Hi,
I've got the Ti4800 card and though the sound is perfect when I'm recording off tv, vcr etc when I -play back the captured clip it's all noisy. The audio is there but there's a loud static noise playing over it.
I'm using the winproducer software that came with the card..
Anyone else have this problem too? What am I doing wrong?

What are the IRQ settings?
Any other magnetic devices near your com while recording/ playback?
How do you link them up?
All the Best... :D!!!

Audio capture problem - I am baffled!

I am having a strange experience trying to capture footage from a particular tape. Perhaps someone out there can help me solve this mystery.
I have a particular DVCAM tape that I am trying to capture.
If I capture it to Premiere CS4 using a Sony DSR-11, the audio of the footage is 48K mono.
If I capture any other tape with the DSR-11, the audio of the footage is 48K stereo.
If I capture this tape using a Sony DSR-200, the captured audio is also 48K mono
When I am monitoring the audio of this tape through Premiere, I can hear that it is mono
When I monitor the analog outputs of the DSR-11, I can hear that the audio is stereo.
If I run a firewire cable from the DSR-11 to a DVD recorder, and monitor that, I can hear that the audio is stereo.
I have tried creating a new project, but the same things happen.
What might possibly be going on?! Why can't I capture the audio from this *one* tape in stereo? I am completely baffled.
J. D.

Hmm. Interesting about the DSR200. I no longer shoot with the DSR200, but I'm re-editing an older tape from the time when I did shoot with the DSR200. As such, this will not likely be an issue in the future. At least the mystery is solved, for which I am grateful. As a test, I tried capturing from footage from a different tape shot with the DSR200, and I experienced the same problem.
As far as the difference between type 1 and type 2 .avi files, I wasn't aware of this. For this project, I'll output the audio of the type 1 .avi file as a .wav file, and sync it to the type 2 .avi file with the mono audio.
Thank you everyone for your help!

NEED HELP WITH AUDIO CAPTURE PROBLEM

I've been filming for the past 2 weeks on a MiniDV camcorder. Heres the problem, I didn't check the audio bit rate before I started filming. Instead of the normal 16 bit, I used 12 bit. Now when I try to Capture the footage, the audio is out of sync and final cut says something along the lines of "The sample bit rate is different than the source. Change the settings to match the source."
I tried to go into the settings menu and change the bit rate to 12 bit, however I was not successful. Can someone please help me with this situation? Thanks for looking. Hope we can figure out a solution.
-D.

Thanks for replying Les. I tinkered with some stuff and it is still not working. I thought I was able to change the "Capture Preset" to 32kHz, instead I was only able to change the "Sequence Preset". The Capture Preset is still set at 48kHz and I have no idea how to change it. Hope you might know what to do. Thanks again for the help.

I did download and install it. No Joy. I went back and tried ot uninstall and reinstall the drivers. I am now getting an error when I run the install program. It appears there is some kind of problem with Installshield installer. I am getting a "1608 error cannot create an installatin instance". Installsheild has several suggested solutions. none of them seem to be working. What the heck is going on. To quote an unnamed presidential "EEEIIIIAAAAAACH"

Audio capture problems

I'll see if I can summarise this clearly and accurately.
Client has material recorded onto DV tape. The audio was captured directly onto tape via an external mike connected to the camera.
When played back on a tape deck or through my own camera, the audio is almost inaudible. However, when played back through the client's camera and heard through headphones, the audio is clear and distinct.
When capturing the material from my DSR11, the FCP Audio Meters show levels to be normal (peaking at around -6dB), even though the audio is still virtually inaudible. After capture, however, the Audio Meters show the levels to be very low (around -40dB).
This remains the case when the audio is captured directly from the client's camera (the sound can be heard normally through headphones connected to the camera - the camera's audio output level is set at the mid-point, it is not turned up - and shows at normal levels on FCP's Audio Meters, but the sound becomes very quiet and the levels on the Audio Meters drop back down after capture).
The material has been captured on different tape stocks, and only about half of the tapes in the client's batch have problems - the rest are audible as normal.
My tape deck and camera have been tested with other tapes and are working normally. FCP is configured to capture stereo through both channels.
In short, everything is set up normally and in working order, but the problem persists.
Has anyone any idea (a) what is wrong and (b) what to do about it? Please answer the second question first!
Many thanks.

Maybe the mic records to mono.
Do you see two audio tracks in the Viewer and Timeline?

FCP Kona 3 Audio Capture Problem

Hello,
We're trying to capture 4 channels of audio only through the embedded HD input, using a Kona 3 card on our G5 2.66 Intel Mac with FCP 6.01 from a Panasonic 1400 HD VTR. All 16 channels are coming in even when we highlight or deselect the audio tracks under clip settings in FCP. Do you have any other ideas on how to capture only four channels of audio?
Thanks in Advance!

RAM streamed audio - capturing problem

I have come from the PC camp where I can fire up Realplayer and sound recorder and record the audio stream (for later listening).
Now on the MAC I find I am unable to achieve this. I tried AudioHijack and it required SoundFlower. This seemed to work but screwed up other audio settings which I didn't want screwed up. I ended up uninstalling Soundflower.
Does anyone know how I can achieve this? I tried Audacity but it seems to only support 'line in'. I tried various other internet-radio apps but they didn't seem very happy about connecting to the sources I want (BBC) let alone allowing me to save/record the stream. I tried VLC but it didn't want to play all the stream and I couldn't see a way of saving it anyway.
I'm running Leopard and all I get in the Audio configuration under INPUT is 'Internal Microphone' and 'Line in'.
Is there no application out there that could perform this simple task?

You should uninstall Soundflower then. I don't think you need it. According to the Soundflower description:
*What It Is*
Soundflower is used to allow all system audio to be hijacked. With Soundflower installed, all System Audio can be hijacked at once and used, instead of grabbing audio from just one application at a time.
You said you are trying to record from the BBC. That means you are trying to record one application's output, not from everything that's running. Therefore, it sounds like you don't need to have Soundflower installed at all.
All you need is the default Audio Hijack behavior, which is to record a single application's audio stream.
I've been using Audio Hijack for years, and to avoid conflicts, I still have not installed the Extras (Instant Hijack, Soundflower, and Schedule Helper). So choose Audio Hijack Pro > Install Extras, click the Soundflower tab, and click Uninstall and see if you can then do what you want to do without trouble.

Audio Only Capture problem

I'm using FCE on a Macbook and although it's worked absolutely perfectly for about a month, I'm suddenly getting a capture screen which shows colour bars and has the message 'Audio Capture Only Selected - Video preview disabled' and, sure enough, it's only capturing audio. Yet when playing the tape through, the video shows perfectly well. I can find no reference anywhere in the FCE manual or in the software to capturing audio only, so can't revert to capturing video as well as audio. I've clearly done something wrong - can anyone help?
Macbook Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Nothing that you have described in this thread is common to the application. These are the first instances of anything like this that I have heard. Your first message creates a function which is not normally available in the application. I'm not sure how that was achieved, but there seems to be something significantly wrong with your system or the way the application is installed. You cannot make a project, save it, and close the application without generating the FCE prefs files.
Did you recently upgrade your operating system? Did you do a clean erase of your system drive and install the new OS, or did you upgrade it?
There may also be an application installation problem. You should begin by repairing permissions on your system drive. You might want to delete evertyhing related to Final Cut Express, Title 3D and Title Craw. Make sure you're an admin user and reinstall the software directly from the install discs.

Problems with Roxio Spin Doctor audio capture

I recently purchased Roxio Toast Titanium 10, which includes Spin Doctor 6 (version 5.0.4). I am trying to use it to capture audio streaming as described in the Spin Doctor User Guide, but continue to have problems. I have repeatedly contacted Roxio with little success. Most recently they had me provide a copy of my System Profiler file and "escalated" the issue. Only result was that I was told to uninstall and reinstall Toast 10. I did that but the problems persist. Here's my report back to Roxio, which explains the problem. I'm wondering if anyone here has encountered this problem or has suggestions on how to proceed.
Bottom line is that I cannot capture streamed audio, as Spin Doctor documentation says I should. I'm guessing this has something to do with the Audio Capture Support program within Spin Doctor, but I can't find out what's wrong.
Here's the description I provided Roxio: +I uninstalled the software and re-installed it per your instructions. Once in Spin Doctor I also installed Audio Capture Support, closed Spin Doctor, and re-opened it. The Start Auto Music Capture button was active. Following the instructions in your Spin Doctor User Guide (page 22) I went selected "start a new recording" and selected various parameters. CDSD Audio Capture was one of the input options. I clicked on the "start" button and immediately got an error message. After that the Auto Music Capture button was no longer active and CDSD audio capture was no longer one of the input options.+

UPDATE: I again uninstalled everything and reinstalled. I did not install the Auto Capture Support feature in Spin Doctor. I was able to successfully record from an internet stream, saved it, and then started another recording. After the second recording I quit Spin Doctor and re-opened it. Now I have the same problem as before: the Auto Capture button does not work and CDSD is not an input option. Back to the same situation as before. I tried quitting both Toast and Spin Doctor and re-opening them but it didn't make a difference.

Premiere Pro CS3 Capture Problem with Audio

Setup:
Premiere Pro 3.2.0
Video Capture Device: Blackmagic Design Intensity Pro capture card
Audio Capture Device: HT Omega Claro Plus XP
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit
I am able to capture video with Premiere with no issues. However, the audio does not get captured even though it is set to capture both audio and video. I am configured for ASIO capture and playback. Strange thing is that I can load Adobe Soundbooth and it will capture the audio just fine (from the same input stream as I'm trying to do with Premiere). What gives? I'm almost out of options.
From what I can see, when I hit F5 and go into capture mode, Premiere seems to insist that it must capture audio from the blackmagic design audio ports, and even though I have the audio explicitly setup for the Claro in audio hardware, if I go into the capture settings, it still is set on "Blackmagic Capture" as the capture format, and when I go to settings, I can pick the audio channels to capture, however.... I don't want to capture with the blackmagic for audio. The capture format MUST be "Blackmagic Capture" or else I can't capture the video. It still doesn't make sense though, since I have the audio hardware set for input from the claro ASIO. It shouldn't force Blackmagic audio.
Any ideas? Please help

Some additional information:
Sound card is a Claro Plus XT not XP. Used to typing XP heh
Also, the video capture works with the included blackmagic capture software, as well as freeware solutions like VirtualDub and a Japanese freeware program I use. I'm able to capture video and audio without issue on those. Just don't know why Premiere doesn't do it...

Capturing Problem with Sony TRV330

Capturing problem with Sony digital8 trv330.
I recently purchased the above camcorder from eBay for capturing old 8mm/Hi8 tapes for editing purpose. The camcorder set to A/V -> DV OUT connected with Firewire to my Power G4 and the Easy Setup was DV-NTSC. The playback on the capture window looks OK except there were no timecode in the Timecode Duration Field and the Current Timecode Field (both shown 00:00:00:00) during playback but there was timedoce in the camcorder viewfinder. When I click the Capture Now button, the capturing window show up with message “waiting for timecode ….”. I have to click “esc” to stop the capturing operation. I trash the Preferences and Ran the Disk Utility without success. I also tried the Easy Setup with DV-NTSC DV Converter as well as DV-NTSC 32Khz, nothing work.
My set up is: Mac Power G4 version 10.5.5/ F.C.E. 4.0.1/ QT7.5.5/ Startup 160 GB-89 GB available/ Scratch 350GB-277GB available. Folks, I need help. Thanks everybody.

Hi, I have a similar problem. I am trying to digitize my 8mm tapes (via firewire) using final cut express (4.0.1). Using easy setup I use DV-NTSC DV Converter and do capture now. I transfer the entire tape but notice the audio is out of synch with the video. This problem gets worse throughout the transfer process. When I use the esc to complete the transfer I get the error " The audio sample rate of one or more of your captured media files does not match the sample rate on your source tape....." So after searching around it is recommended I change the audio sample rate to 32 kHz option. However, when I do this using easy setup and picking DV-NTSC 32kHz I cannot use capture now because I have no timecode and so the window comes up with the message "waiting for timecode". Since there is no timecode this option does not work. Any suggestions? Thanks, Dan

Audio Capture only happens if its more than 5 seconds

Hello,
I'm writing a midlet that does audio capture on the LG CU500 phone. When I capture for 5 seconds or more, audio capture works as intended, however if I only record for under 5 seconds, it doesn't work. There is no timer. Would could be causing the problem?
Thanks
aztec30

Here is a snippet of the code that i'm using. When playing back, if I record say 10 seconds, I only hear about 7 seconds of the recording. About 3 seconds are cut off at the end. If I record for say less than 4 seconds, nothing seems to be recorded, nothing plays back.
To record I do the following
try {
if(player != null)
player.stop();
if(ctrl != null)
ctrl.commit();
player.deallocate();
player.close();
ThreadSleep(500);
if (player==null) {
player = Manager.createPlayer("capture://audio?encoding=audio/amr");
player.realize();
player.prefetch();
player.addPlayerListener(playerListener);
is = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ctrl = (RecordControl)player.getControl("RecordControl");
ctrl.setRecordStream(is);
ctrl.startRecord();
player.start();
} catch (Throwable e) {
Once recording is stopped I do this
try {
player.stop();
ctrl.commit();
player.deallocate();
player.close();
Thread.sleep(500);
if (is !=null) {
playback= Manager.createPlayer(new ByteArrayInputStream(is.toByteArray()),
"audio/amr");
playback.addPlayerListener(playerListener);
playback.start();
} catch (Throwable e) {

Audio capture lost after installing snow leopard

Has anyone else had problems loosing their audio capture in Premiere cs4 after installing Snow Leopard?

Just wondering, is that a plug-in for Premiere?
Similar problem with After Effects maybe?...
