IPhoto montage has an audio delay

I'm trying to assist a family member with a photo montage issue that has an audio problem. Here's her recap (her words, not mine) -
"I made the photo montage in iPhoto and then did the music in garage band. Then I loaded the iPhoto slide show into garage band and saved the whole thing. It plays great on my computer (MacBook Air) in iTunes, but when I put it on a CD or load it into drop box and it is played on a non Mac it delays the music by 14 seconds."
I downloaded the .M4V file and I too get the 14 second delay before the audio begins.
If it plays correctly on her Mac, why does it become a problem on other platforms (CD, dropbox). Can it be the conversion process to CD and upload to Drop Box that is causing the issue?
Can the problem be embedded in the file, and if so can I edit it to fix it? If so, how do I best do that?
I consider myself a tech geek and a Mac power user, but I'll admit that I'm not good witih video apps.
Thoughts or suggestions?

That's not an iPhoto issue, is it?
It plays great on my computer (MacBook Air) in iTunes,
It seems to be related to the burning process, which is done in some other app.

Willy, the procdedure you describe works perfectly for AppleTV G1. In fact, I frequently play DTS music discs ripped to my iTunes library as Apple Lossless (ALAC) and synched to the ATV. What happens is that, as far as iTunes and the ATV are concerned, a conventional stereo 16/44 audio file is being played; however my reciever detects the DTS data stream, and instead of outputting static, it decodes the 5.1 channels correctly. This process parallels the way DTS discs were designed to be played back: a conventional CD player is connceted, via digital out, to a DTS-aware reciever/pre-amp and the two channels of static are recognized as 6 channels of DTS-encoded audio.
However this process will only work if the player (CD, ATV, PC, etc.) sends a "bit-perfect" 16 bit/44.1 khz data stream to the decoding device. In the case of ATV G2 and G3, as has been discussed elsewhere, the unit resmaples all audio - including 16/44 PCM (Redbook CD) - to 16/48. While this is not a big deal for conventional audio CDs, MP3s, and AAC files, it mangles the fragile DTS datastream and renders it undecodable. The resulting static that you hear is just like the static you would hear if you played a DTS CD on a non-DTS capable system.
Sadly, I'm not aware of any easy way around this. You could use a program like Foobar (and the DTS plugin) to convert your DTS CDs to 6-ch .wav or .flac file. From there you could transcode the file to AC-3 and then mux it into a video container that ATV supports. You may need add a dummy video track, for iTunes/AppleTV to be ok with the file, though I'm not sure. This may be a lot of work.
Sorry for the bad news. I wish that the iTunes/ATV ecosystem had better multi-channel audio support.

1-2 Second Audio Delay after installing windows 7

I installed windows 7 on monday but whenever i do anything that has audio it is always delayed by -2 seconds.
For example when playing Dragon Age Origins an npc's mouth moves then a second latter the audio finally comes.
When listening to music it isnot that noticable since it is just audio but when i pause or stop it the audio continues for -2 seconds.
When watching videos on Hulu it is the same as games where the voice comes about -2 seconds after the person's mouth moves.
I have everything up to date via the auto updater and checked on here to verify the correct drivers are installed and they are indeed the latest.
Everything worked fine when i had vista but this issue may not be big to some but since i am a big very gamer this is a major problem and if not fixed soon i will remove the card and use the crappy onboard sound.
Any help fixin this issue would be greatly apreciated.
Edit: Forgot to mention that i use the creative sound blaster x-fi titanium card
Edit: I managed to fix it by deleteing EVERYTHING Creative and using ONLY the newest driver from the site, however doing this pretty much makes my card nothing more than a fancy onboard sound card since it doesn't have any of it's features.
The updater doesn't detect my card and when it does and i install anything from the list i get this audio delay issue.

Long Audio Delay

I'm running on Mac 10.7.3 using the latest free trial of Adobe Connect.
I'm experiencing very long audio delays (5 seconds or more) when in a meeting room. I've searched the forums and found this Re: Long audio delay By jonturkle, posted Nov 20, 2008 by this doesn't seem to match my situation as I'm not in a hosted environment or behind any firewalls that would restrict ports. (Or at least I don't think anything like this should be going on)
Video streams fine, so it doesn't seem to be a bandwidth problem, just a lag with audio.
Has anyone got any ideas what might be causing this and how it can be fixed?
Thanks
James

By free trial of Adobe Connect, are you talking about Hosted Trial? or did you build a server?
If it's Hosted trial, then you are in a hosted environment.
In the upper right corner of your meeting, see the vertical green bar. Click that - to see your connection /latency.
In the room, choose Meeting / Preferences.
Set your preferences for bandwidth to DSL/Cable
Then run the audio setup wizard.

'File has no audio or video streaming' error -- I have codecs!

Hi!
I really hope someone can help me!
I am trying to import MOV files into Premiere CS5 (latest version, just downloaded last week) and I get the error message "file has no audio or video streaming.'
I can open these files just fine in Final Cut Pro X (which I hate, so hence why I am back on Premiere).
I already downloaded Quicktime 7, and the Quicktime Pro Codecs here (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1396). When I tried to install those codecs, I got an error saying there is a newer version of the codecs installed on my machine.
My info:
Mac OS 10.6.8
Quicktime 10
(I read you also needed to download Quicktime 7 for some codecs. I did that, but it didn't help.)
Premiere CS5.5 (Trial)*
*I read the old trial did not allow you to import MOVs, but that the new trial does not have an issue -- so I'm at a loss as to what to do.

Audio delay in Windows Media Encoder

I am using WME for broadcasting (streaming).
The video source (digtal mixer) has a delay of 200ms.
The audio source (soundcard) has no delay.
Audio and video are now out of sync.
WME has no audio offset option, is there another way to delay the audio for 200ms?
Is there maybe a plugin for WME that can delay the audio?

This will help you to configure:

Turn off the audio delay?

My question is pretty straightforward and simple.
Is there any way that I can turn off the ~2 seconds audio delay from the AirPort Express audio output?
Thanks!

Not really.
iTunes uses a QuickTime CODEC to convert audio files to Apple Lossless, and then, uses AirTunes to send them to the AX. In turn, the AX uses built-in software that converts the Apple Lossless to an Encoded Digital Audio format. From there, digital audio is sent to a optical transceiver to convert the electrical signal to an optical one before sending it to the innermost part of the audio port. For analog, the AX has a built-in DAC to convert the Encoded Digital Audio to Analog which is sent to the same audio port.
One operational glitch is the fact that, as the AX doesn't have a local clock circuit, when the incoming data is interrupted, as it is when you change songs in iTunes, there is no longer a digital output to feed the DAC, which loses lock as a result. This is typically "heard" as the delay you are experiencing.

Encoding Audio delay using iDVD ...

Why are Apple not rectifying this bug?
iDVD appears, even to the most advanced user, to have crashed when it comes to the Encoding Audio section. But it hasn't. Let it run. Yes I know that even if you check the Force Quit menu it shows iDVD as "not responding" but it is working.
Come on Apple - sort this out.

iDVD 6 Encoding audio "delay." So am I supposed to believe that iDVD is actually "working" on encoding the audio even when after 12 hours it says in the Force Quit menu that iDVD is "not responding" and there's a spinning cursor?? Balderdash!
I have spent the greater part of the last 3 days trying to finish off a massive project for my family: transferring all our old home videos to DVD. Actually, I spent many many additional hours adding a soundtrack with songs and sound effects to these silent movies. And all for nothing!
Trying to fix the problem of iDVD stopping responding during audio encoding, we bought a 500 Gb hard drive to clear up more space on the hard drive: $$!
I even tried turning off the audio track and just burning the dvd without it. Not even that worked! It still freezes up.
APPLE, if you are listening. PLEASE PLEASE FIX THIS. This was to be my Christmas Gift to the family, and your product has FAILED.

Quicktime video recording - audio delay

If i try to record a video using quicktime and my built-in webcam, and have the audio volume turned up so i can monitor as i record, there is a delay.
This is the only program that delays audio as i record. To be clear, the final video is not out of sync, its just the audio delays if i try to listen as i record (important if you are recording guitar like i do)
Any way to make it not delay?

JTBluesmaker, When you record the computer has to capture the video/audio and then convert the video/audio and then play it back. I believe Quicktime is monitoring the recoding and not the audio input. With that, I would say there going to be a slight delay.
If you have something like Apple's GarageBand you should be able to monitor the audio input.

IPhone 4s Voice Memo App has 5 second delay when the record button is pressed. When it starts recording, it goes from 0 seconds to 5 or so seconds recorded. This happens randomly and often and sometimes has the delay but starts at zero. Solution Anyone?

After iOS 7 update, my iPhone 4s Voice Memo App has 5 second delay when the record button is pressed. When it starts recording, it goes from 0 seconds to 5 or so seconds that it shows has recorded. This happens randomly and often, sometimes it will have the 5+ second delay but starts recording at zero seconds. Besides the delay it has been working fine as far as saving and playback is concerned. I have plenty of storage on the phone itself and it NEVER had this problem before I updated to iOS 7. I've reset the phone a couple times by holding down the power and home buttons at the same time. The reason I have an issue with this is that I'm always recording song ideas, melodies, and scratch takes; what I'm saying is when I come up with an idea I need to be able to know that when I hit record it will start right then so I don't forget anything that has just popped in my mind.
Does anyone have a solution or suggestion?
Thanks

I've been using Ringtone Maker to add ringtones to my iPhone. The app is now telling me my music I bought from the iTunes store is not exportable. I downloaded a new app called Ringer and it says my song "has no audio tracks". What am I doing wrong?

never mind. i think it just makes you review the information -- it looks like you have to click through everything.

My iPhoto library has suddenly disappeared from my computer.
When i click on iPhoto it tells me to choose my library or create a new one. However no library option appears. I have searched the computer for the library but it does not seem to exist anymore. I did not have time machine set up, so there is no back up. Is there any way i can retrieve my library?
Here is a picture of what appears when i click on iPhoto:

In terms of searching i have searched for photos on my finder. However, none of the photos that appear are from my iPhoto Library.
Search with FindAnyFile. You can download it here: http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/index.php
Search for any file with "ThumbJPGSegment" in the name. If you added at least one image to your library, the library should contain a file with this name, see OldToad's post: Re: Since I updated to iPhoto 9.5.1, my library is not listed or available. How can I find it? Can I use the time machine to restore it?
