No Sound When Playing Back from Timeline

IIn Captivate 5, I have text to speech waveform showing in the timeline but no sound when previewing.
Soud does play in audio edit mode or when published. Makes it difficult to adjust timing.
What am I missing?

Hi Jack
My own guess is that you clicked the speaker icon in the Timeline to mute audio. If that's the case, click the icon to toggle the state.

Audio Clicking and broken up when playing back from timeline

Can anyone please give me some advice about a possible solution to a continuing audio problem I am having when using the Tascam Fireone with Final Cut Pro 5.1.4. (Fireone working well with Logic 7 on the same machine)
The Symptoms are as follow:
When playing back edited clips or music from the timeline there are constant ugly pops and clicks.
Any audio or video and audio even with differing sample rates when played in the source monitor are unaffected and play perfectly.
I have tried everything I know and am now at a total loss as to what to try next.
Tascam's so called support ignore any communication from me about it, as do most people on this forum.
Any suggestions welcome.
Thank you

I think it is a driver issue between Tascam and Apple Firewire connections
It's all very frustrating as Tascam just do not respond to support questions well.
Thanks for your comments, it's back to the drawing board with the Fireone and Final Cut Pro, a great shame because it's cheap and very good with Logic.

No sound when playing back videos, 10 out 14 taken all on the same day!!

Ok strange 1, took videos this morning using my iPhone 4, when played back the sound was fine could hear everything, i took 10 more, i could hear no sound from these 10, i took 2 more when i got home they were fine, the phone was held in different ways all day so i wasnt covering anything, obviously some worked before and after so there isnt a problem with the microphone. tried restoring but I dont see the point if some have sound and some dont, have uplaoded to youtube and played back on the computer with the same problems, anyone any ideas?

You could try either a Backup Restore or a Clean Restore. I usually do a CR with MobileMe as the restore source. Afterwards I reload the music, videos and apps.
It could be a sound playing bug like the Bluetooth bug that bites me now and then (audio stops and goes once in a while, audio gaps in the video if the video is paused, and videos recorded have the audio very quiet).

No sound when playing video from organizer in PSe 4.0

I am currently having a problem with previewing video in the organizer in Photoshop Elements 6.0. The problem is that there is no sound. I thought something went wrong during the import of these videos from the camcorder to the PC hard drive (imported through the Adobe Downloader) so I tried to use them in a project in Premier Elements 4.0.
If I open these videos in Premier Elements 4.0, you can hear the sound. Also, it's only for the .mpg I copy over from the camcorder. There are .avi files and .mov files in the organizer and those play just fine.
I use Windows XP with an older DELL system.
Anybody have this problem? Any suggestions how to fix it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I tried searching the web and these forums but I didn't find anything that matched my problem.

My suspicion is that there is not an appropriate system available mpeg2 codec on your Windows XP machine for the Photoshop Elements 6 Organizer to use for the playback of your .mpg file. Premiere Elements 4 provides its own codec for mpeg2 and I think that is why it can work with these files.
What solved this type of problem for me on an older Dell desktop runnning XP Home using Sony hard drive SD camcorder .mpg files was
-- to install the software provided by Sony on the CD that came with the camera
-- I think that the critical factor provided by the Sony software was the addition of an mpeg2 codec that Photoshop Elements 6 Organizer could then use.
I do want to emphasize that my solution may have been influenced by the specifics of my system: therefore, I can't be sure if it will resolve your problem.

No sound when playing video from iTunes on a Satellite M45

Hi,
After trying to play a video from iTunes on a Toshiba Satellite M45, the entire sound system went out. I think there is something wrong with the sound drivers or it/they can't be detected. I'm new to the PC world and any help in easy-to-understand terms will be grateful. Is there any destinations where I can download a new driver.
I need to fend off the insanity that's creeping in. Thanks.
Caden

Hi
I think you should firstly check the device manager if there are any yellow exclamation marks near to the sound card.
If yes so the sound driver reinstallation could help.
It seems that the notebook was designed for the US market. (because of the 5 at the end of the number)
So I think you should take a look on the US Toshiba site for driver updates.

Lost all my sound when playing movies and shows from internet

i seemed to have lost all sound when playing movies from internet. i still have "system" sounds and beeps?

The speaker is not that good but maybe yours is defective if you have the volume fully raised.
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted and have a poor contact.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R" or "R".
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack or other hardware problem.

No sound when playing from timeline

I just installed the latest CS5.5 on a Snow Leopard hackintosh (dualboot os-x and Win7 64bit - all bought software) and I can´t get sound to work on the timeline in Mac OS-X.
I´m trying to get this to work with a standard DV25 PAL file (but I´ve also tried default bars+tone).
Sound plays back fine in Mac OS-X in Quicktime, VLC and Itunes.
Sound plays back fine in the Source window in Premiere
However, when I try to play back the timeline the audio master meter moves up and down as it should, but I can´t get ANY sound out of the speakers.
I´ve tried all the audio hardware and mapping settings too without any success.
Just thought I should ask in here. Any ideas?
If I route the audio through my Blackmagic Studio card it all works fine.
Hope to get a clever answer :-)
Andreas

I've heard of this error. When you upgrade to Lion, it can remove the soundcard driver. You'll have to use Multibeast to roll back and reload your audio drivers.
I'm assuming your audio does not work at all and not just in Premiere Pro, correct?

When watching my Apple TV (3rd gen) the picture jumps a few frame every few seconds, this happens when I rent a film or play back from my new Mac Pro, my Wifi is the Airport Express.

These may be different issues, but lets look at rentals first.
Poor motion can result from mismatched output. If your source is 24 or 30 fps you should set the output of the Apple TV to 60 Hz, for 25 fps content use 50 Hz.
Additionally motion software on the TV itself can cause the picture to jump, check your TV settings and turn off any motion settings in use,

AC3 sounds garbled when played back through the asset window

i have a 5.1 AC3 file i made with A.Pack with DVDSP3 (now using DVDSP4) and when i played the file back in my asset window via S/PDIF out on the Mac to a Dolby Digital Capable 5.1 amp (having the prefs in DVDSP set to SPDIF not default in the simulation pref window)...it sounds REALLY garbled.....i know what a raw AC3 file sounds like played back throught a standard amp (like a code-not being able to hear anything BUT that)...and the file i tried to play back was still barely understandable...but sounded like a robot. is this a bug or am i doing something wrong?

Awesome! This fix worked for me as well. I too don't know what happened after my system had been working just fine for years, then today it was all garbled. All is well now. Thanks!

Downloaded CD clicks when played back

I have two new CD's that will play back just fine on my iMac, but they can't be downloaded to my iTunes library without picking up popping, clicking and screaching artifacts when they are played back from the library. (I have successfully downloaded some 30 GB of my CD library.) What's happening?

Do the files play okay in Quicktime Player? I have read somewhere that iTunes can introduce effects in older CDs which were made with a certain kind of audio enhancement. Also make sure iTunes itself doesn't have any sound enhancing filters enabled.

How get multiclips to stay in viewer when playing/editing in timeline?

I just started editing in multiclip. I can get my 3 multiclip clips to show in the Viewer on a 4-up display, but when I play the Timeline, the Viewer jumps to full frame active view. I've set the RT at Multiclip Playback, set the Open option on the Playhead Sync menu, and set Multi-clip 4-up Display. What am I doing wrong or missing?
How can I get the multiclips 4-up display to stay in the Viewer when I play the Timeline?
Thanks,

There are 2 things to check.
1. Has your timeline been rendered? I ask this because I was given a 3 camera multiclip project from another editor here, and with all of my settings checked, I still couldn't get the multiclips to show on my external when playing back. Once playback was stopped or the playhead scrubbed, then the 4-up display would return. Just for kicks, I cleared his render cache and bingo, 4-up returned on playback.
2. In the View menu, is "Show Multiclip Angles" checked? (It's at the very bottom of the menu).

CS4: Hangs When Playing Back Stills

Can anyone reproduce this:
Sequence is AVCHD, 720p... I've inserted a couple of pictures from my digital camera along with a couple of short movie clips (camera: Panasonic DMC-FT1)...
After inserting a couple of stills into the sequence, when playing back those stills I can't stop playback until playhead has either reached one of the movie clips of end of sequence.
Is this a bug of the current version (version 4.2.1)?

I have sporadically seen a very similar problem with stills in Premiere
CS4 when editing both mini DV footage and P2 footage. It seems to
be related to project complexity and not to a particular type of footage.
It seems to happen more often if I have a lot of large stills that are scaled
and panned as opposed to stills that are exactly frame sized.
When the problem happens, killing Premiere and restarting usually
seems to work ok, so it is not clear what triggers the bug.
I know nothing about the internal architecture of Premiere but it is
clear that there are multiple threads at work when playing from the
timeline and I am guessing that something about playing a lot
of stills causes the thread
that is responsible for listening to the user to "block" forever (wait for
some event that never will happen). So the player thread(s) keep on
playing but you can't stop them. Its unfortunately an all too common
type of bug in complex software and goes by the colorful name of
"deadly embrace" or deadlock.
I have mostly avoided this problem by preparing sequences of stills
in separate projects and importing them into a single final project
near the end of my editing process so as to mimimize the exposure
to situations likely to cause the problem.

No sound when playing .pps files

I occasionally receive .pps or .ppt files from my mother but usually can't hear any sound when playing these slide shows. Most recently, I took the same inaudible presentation she sent me, renamed the file and sent it back to her and the music accompanying the renamed slide show played fine for her. Any idea what's going on?? My mother does not create these files but just forwards them along to me. She uses a Windows XP machine and I use a Mac if that makes any difference.

I'm having the same problem. Evidently, the Mac does not include
whatever application plays the music that accompanies a .pps file.
I visited my local Apple store, but nobody was able to help.
Very disappointing and frustrating.

No sound when playing burned DVD with Windows Media Player

Hello!
I made a 10 minute movie which I burned , tested and delivered today.
But it turns out that when playing the DVD with WMP, there is no sound.
I had tested the movie playing it with powerDVD, and it worked as it should. When playing it with a normal DVD player and TV it works allright.
But I had not tested it with WMP. And sure enough, when playing it with WMP there is no sound!
The ones who will show the DVD will do it from a computer to a video projector, and maybe they don't have a "proper" DVD program installed. But I heard that there was sound when playing with "VLC" which is a relief.
But I feel the need to get to the bottom of why there is no sound with WMP? Any clues?

In NTSC-land, one has but two choices: PCM/WAV or DD AC3, which is a particular "flavor" of MPEG. In PAL-land, one does have the option of MPEG (not DD AC3) as an option, but that seems to be falling out of favor.
When MS was re-tooling WMP, they wanted to add back the functionality of commercial (pressed/replicated) DVD's, but sought to limit any burned DVD's. Do not know what the mindset is now, so much could have changed with a few iterations of WMP. I have to admit that I just do not reach for it that often.
In the Project, or Disc, menus, one can tell En which Audio Transcoding to use. As John T, suggests, I would definitely do a test with PCM/WAV, and X my fingers.
If your client(s) is/are set on WMP as the player, there is hopefully a scheme that you can get to work. Also, remember that some older versions of WMP might not play the DVD at all, unless one finds the right plug-in, that basically hacked the intended setup in those older versions. Just like when delivering to a client, and not knowing their systems' calibration, or setup, trying to cover every base in a particular player software might involve a lot of work, and prayer.
Good luck,
Hunt
