How to extend audio from a video clip over an adjacent still image

I'm in iMovie 11. My project looks like this: video A, transition, still image B, transition, video C. I want the sound from video C to start playing while still image B is on the screen. I tried following the iMovie 11 help instructions for extending a video clip's audio. I click on video C and open the precision editor. From there I can grab video C and move it back so that it overlaps with the still image, but all that happens is the still image still shows up, without sound, and video clip C starts in the middle. The help instructions seem to indicate that I should be able to drag only the audio and make that overlap the still image, but it's not happening. Either the video and audio move together, or nothing moves.
When I try detatching video C from its audio, I just end up with a big mess because later the audio and video don't synch up.
What am I doing wrong?

I am having the same challenge... any tips here would help me out in a big way. I recorded my boss tdoing a training session and now I would like to have the powerpoint slides change as necessary - but I want the audio to remain. I would love to just get the slides to change rather than back to full before bringing up the next slide. Jim, if you come up with anything, let me know. I have VC2 pro.

How to extract audio from a video clip

I am editting a video, and I need to extract the audio from a video clip. On the old iMovie it was really easy, all you had to do was press apple K I think. Thanks in advanced for your help.

Select the clip in the sequence.
Then command-L to unlink the clips.
Then select the audio and delete.
As a suggestion, two things:
1. Explain what you want to do. If it is delete the audio, then that is different than extracting the audio;
2. Do a search in the pdf manual in the help manual

On iMovie how can you mute a section of the sound track so you can hear the audio from the video clip?

.

Hey,
If you double-click on the soundtrack you can open it up in the inspector tab and lower the soundtrack so that you can hear the audio from the video clip.
A great resource for finding answers to questions like this is http://www.imovietutorialhelp.com
You can ask questions just like these and they will be answered for you. If you need a tutorial video made or anything like that, you can go there as well and ask for a video to made as well. Check it out.
If you still have questions on how to do this, they can help you for sure.
I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my video or link.

Trying to combine audio from a video clip with a photo

Is there a way to allow the audio of a video clip to continue, while the visual is changed? I'm trying to insert a photo to replace the last few seconds of a video as the song in the video finishes.

Not at the moment. Hopefully at some point they will add a feature to independently trim the audio and video to allow this type of edit, otherwise known as an L cut.

Patch in Audio from Similar Video Clip

I have video of our church's Christmas play, shot with a Panasonic TM700. The audio is with the video, from the camcorder. My problem is that in some of the dialog, one girl's lapel mic quit working, so every time she speaks its really hard to hear what she says.
I have similar video from a dress rehearsal where this person's mic was working fine. I'd like to be able to replace the bad audio from the actual performance with the good audio from the dress rehearsal, just for this one person. Can someone suggest a good workflow for that? Can it all be done in FCPX, or does the good audio need to be extracted from the video before bringing it in?

Never mind, I figured this out. I just imported the clips from the rehearsal to my event, right clicked and chose Open in Timeline, then copied and pasted the audio from there to my project. Pretty easy.

Taking audio from one video clip to another

Hello,
In editing a short film, there are scenes where the director is talking in the background, while the action is going on. If I like the video of this particular take, but want to use sound from another take, what would be the best way of doing this? I could conceivably take the sound from the one clip and put it in with the desired video clip, but, I do not know if that is the most efficient way, especially when it comes to matching up everything - thanks!

This is one of the basics of editing Kristina. Just cut the video you want on V1 (video only), then put the audio you want on V2. This happens ALL the time. Director giving directions in the middle of shots. This is one of the reasons we get room tone after we are done shooting, before you wrap a set. Need to have something to cover the hole you make in cutting out the BANGS and dolly moves and director talking...stuff like that.

Is there a way to separate audio from a video clip in iMovie HD?

iMovie 6.0.4
Sorry if this has been answered before.
Is there any way to edit audio within iMovie? What I mean is, importing an audio file but then editing and separating the audio file into smaller pieces. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks for any help, much appreciated!

Edit the same as you would a video clip. Highlight the audio clip by clicking on it, then select the place you want to edit it with the playhead, go to EDIT and select Split Audio Clip at Playhead.

How to add audio from a video while recording.

Hi,
I want captivate to recognize the audio of the video when recording a video demo. I know that it is possible in captivate 6.1 but not sure how. It sounds lame but I am a beginner.

Hi there,
Welcome to Adobe Forums.
You can do this by selecting the System Audio option on the recording window. Please refer to the below image:
Hope this helps!
Thanks!

Audio from a captured clip over still graphics

I capture the on-camera portion of my presentation and then place graphics and titles over the captured video. How can I allow the audio from the clip to continue when a graphic appears, other than using the non-transition effects?

No audio when sending video clips over HDMI

When using an HDMI link (from my Acer laptop) to an A/V receiver, no audio is sent over the HDMI when using Lightroom5 to play video clips, but it works OK when playing the same clips directly from the files).
Playing YouTube videos, and tutorials, also work correctly (audio on the HDMI).
(The audio is output from the laptop speaker, and the 3.5mm jack.)
What am I doing wrong ?
Thanks,
Chris

Reply to suggestion to checking system tray: HDMI device shown and not grayed-out.
However I did find that after rebooting the laptop the sound showed up on the HDMI.
…not sure for how long of course.
Thankyou for your suggestions,
Chris

How to extract audio from home video

Hello all,
I am trying to compile an iMovie and I imported a home video shot with my Sony DSC T7 and when iMovie imports it. There is no audio!??! Is there a way for me to use the power of my Mac OS X and extract the audio before I import and then bring both into iMovie seperatly? Or is there a way to bring it into iMovie with sound? I'd appreciate the help. Thanks,
Lorne17

iMovie should import the audio/video together. Maybe you should re-post your question in the iMovie forum. It's possible that someone there had the same problem and knows the solution.

How to acess audio on a video clip... it plays when clicked on seperately,but not in movie.

I have created a movie. It will not play the audio, but when I expand the view to expert, the audio shows up.. it just does not play. It does play the narration added to the pictures in the clip... What can I do. Yes, the volume on the computer is on and turned up.

joflobird
What version Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system? Premiere Elements 12/12.1 by any chance?
In your project, did you have audio on the numbered audio track and lost the sound for that once you added the narration to the project,
using the project Narration Tool? If 12, that is a known issue. Please refer to
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE12: Audio Losses After Narration Addition
Please determine if the above applies to your situation. And, then we will decide what next.
Thanks.

After I detach audio from the video, and I go to delete the video portion but keep the audio, it deletes both. Am I doing something wrong?

Hello Everyone!
I would appreciate your support if you can. I know how to detach the audio from a video clip. Once this is done I wanted to add another video shot (B-roll) over the audio I detached. When I go to delete the video (which is detached form the audio) It deletes both of them automatically.
Is there something I am doing wrong? Do I need to unpin the audio somehow?
Thanks again.

Can you record the audio from a Video embedded in a pdf?

I can't seem to find anything on this, so I will ask. A client sent us a company produced interactive pdf and wants us to use the audio from a video clip that is in the pdf. We asked for the audio clip but they don't know who to get it from and just keep saying it is in the pdf. While others try to explain that a pdf and an mp3 are not the same thing. I get to look into a fall back position of trying to extract the audio (or video). There is no copyright issue here. Client peon just can't/won't get the proper file.
Maybe some one can help or point me to info that says it is not possible.
Thanks.

WireTap Studio did the trick. I downloaded a free Trial version and bob's yer uncle.
Thanks Michael

How to extract audio from an .avi for use on iTunes

I have an Ipod Mini and I want to put the audio from a video clip (.avi file) onto it. Is this possible?
Thanks

Gobias
The simple fact is that if it won't play in iTunes it won't play in your iPod. If the file plays on the Mac you'll need to capture it to an iTunes compatible format (mp3, aiff). To do this check out AudioHijack at http://rogueamoeba.com/ - the idea is that as your play the avi this will record the sound.
