Sound Cuts Out Half Way Through Clip

I'm importing an AVI file into iMovie HD to edit it. There is nothing wrong with the file itself, there's sound the whole way through, but when I import it into iMovie the sound cuts out at a certain part. I've tried uploading it multiple times and every time the sound cuts out at the same part of the clip. I can't figure out what's wrong.

Welcome to the discussions.
AVI isn't a format. AVI is a container, just like MOV. These containers can contain video in any format (=codec) of the hundreds available. Which codec is YOUR video encoded with?

Songs cutting out half way through

I recently bought the album Light it Up by Rev Theory on itunes, while playing it I have noticed that a bunch of the songs towards the end of the album cut out half way through and move on to the next song, is there a fix?

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library then use the Purchased link in the right-hand column of the iTunes Store home page to download fresh copies of the tracks.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not available in your region contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history.

When i publish the movie to youtube, the sound gets cut out half way through. help?

I'm trying to publish a short movie to youtube. It plays fine in the editing screen, but when I publish it, half way through, the sound cuts out on the video. There's still some background music that's playing, but the voices get cut out. I've tried republishing it in a different size and the sound cuts out at the exact same place. Any suggestions?

You can contact support and have them troubleshoot the songs for you.

Audio cuts out half way through video after conversion.

I just put together some video clips I've shot into a single video, then ran it through conversion. Half way through the completed video, the audio cuts out for the rest of the film. Yet in iMovie, it's still there. I've converted twice and it cuts out in the same spot. Could corruption in a single clip, kill the audio for the following clips? Since it takes hours to convert, I thought I'd ask before deleting the suspect clip and starting again.
I've spliced together clips before without problem, using the same camera source.
Thanks.
Cheers

I figured a work-around. From the clip where the audio cut out till the end, I dragged those clips to a new iMovie project. After converting, the sound was intact for that portion. Then I opened the complete version with audio cut-off in Quicktime Pro. Deleted the the half with audio loss. Then joined the new half I just created. Voila!
Only when I went to post the video on my vlog, did my Internet connection die (Comcast strikes again).

HT1040 I cannot upload my iphoto book to the apple store for printing, it cuts out half way through the download. What can I do?

I have made a photo book which is ready now to send to the apple store for printing but half way through the download process it cuts out unexpectadly and will not send. I have printed many books from my computer through Iphoto and have never had this problem before. What could be the problem? I have checked for updates and installed all of them. Turned my computer off and then on again. But still keeps doing this. Help ?

Apple's servers are very busy today, right after the big WWDC conference and the announcement of new products.
download process it cuts out unexpectadly and will not send
The reason for this may be that the book contains photos that cannot be rendered. Have you checked the preview of your book? Does the pdf look correct?

If that is not the problem, check your network and your security settings. If you are using a Firewall or Antivirus filter, disable it temporarily.

I have been watching a rental movie and the audio cut out half way through, tried restoring the apple TV now I've lost the rental.

I have just been watching (The Adjustment Bureau) a rental movie and about half way through the audio cut out, I tried rerunning the chapter but still the same problem so I tried the restoring function and now I have lost the 48 hrs viewing of the movie. So how do I get the movie back without paying for it again and is this problem likely to reoccoure and if so how do I rest without loosing the movie?

Hi David.
This must be a glitch in the movie file on the iTunes server because my husband and I just reached the same point in he film (The Adjustment Bureau) and no audio! Totally cuts out and doesn't come back in. We tried the same - turned off, signed out, and also couldn't see the rental in the menu... Sign out, sign back in and click 'Check for rentals' in the 'General' menu just under where you signed in.
It may come up with a negative 'no more rentals can be found' or similar but go back to the main screen and check anyway. It should be there.

Older itunes purchases cutting out half way through

I've been noticing for some time (this is not my first attempt to get an answer) that my older itunes purchases cut out about half way through when played on my ipod (but not when played on my PC) I've tried to find an answer on Apple forums before but it seems to be one of those questions that never gets a good answer. I'm beginning to wonder if it is Apple's way of getting us to buy our music all over again, but they wouldn't be that cynical would they. Anyway, since I'm increasingly unwilling to trust Apple to look after my music I'm going back to CDs whenever possible. I don't always want to buy an entire album, so does anyone have a real remedy for this problem?

Hello Jo Tampoco,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you have some purchased music that plays as expected in your iTunes library on your computer but does not on your iPod touch. Any purchases made in the iTunes Store can be downloaded again at no charge as long as the item(s) are still available for purchase so you will not be asked to repurchase these items.
For troubleshooting, depending on how your music is being moved to your iPod, there are some steps I would suggest. If you are syncing the music from your computer to your iPod and the music on the iPod is not playing completely, I would suggest trying to download that music directly from your purchases to your iPod. To do this, please use the instructions in the first article below.
Download past purchases - Apple Support
If you have been downloading the purchases directly to the iPod and the music is not playing completely, I would suggest syncing the music from your iTunes library and testing to see if it will play as expected once it is on the iPod.
Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB - Apple Support
Have a great day,
Joe

Why do some of the songs I purchased from itunes cut out half way through?

I've purchased a lot of music through itunes, and as I've been playing it, I've noticed that several of the songs stop half way through and just play silence for the last minute or two. This is very frustrating as I have spent hundreds of dollars buying music through iTunes. This occurs on all of my devices, iPhone 4, MacBook and iPad 2.

I'm having this exact problem now with an iPhone 4 (not the 4S) and running software 6.1.3 with iTunes version 11.0.4.4. - The songs play fine in iTunes. In some instances I brought in the songs from CDs, in other instances I purchased from the iTunes store meaning I can't simply convert them. In either way they play silence on my iPhone around halfway through and for the remainder of the track.
I have attempted a full restore from a backup, and then reloaded all of my music, same songs, same problem. I don't feel a manual restore would help because that means reprogramming every single app, and the music would be reloaded the same way so what difference could that make?
Just to add insult to injury my protection plan ran out about 2 weeks ago and my phone otherwise works fine, so this can't possibly be worth purchasing another pricey plan just to be allowed to TALK to Apple.

Some tracks cut out half way through playing

I have a 20GB 4G iPod with a black & white display which I got in December 2004.
Recently, some of the tracks on my iPod have been cutting out during playback and the iPod moves onto the next track in the play list.
I store my music on my Windows XP SP2 computer and I sync my iPod with this computer. All of the tracks playback correctly on the computer, so why aren't they playing correctly on the iPod and how can I fix the problem?
Many thanks for any help.

I have a similar setup and have had the same problems. I've noticed that since I update iTunes to 5.0.1.4. About 15 songs (out of 3200) will reload onto my iPod each time I connect. When this happens the length of the song (time) changes to some random number, either shorter or longer. If it is longer the iPod basically plays to the end of the song and then skips to the next one (doesn't play the "extra" time), but if it is shorter, the song cuts off in the middle.
This is an annoying bug. Any help would be greatly appreciated!...

Itunes purchased music cuts out half way through a song.

Hello. I recently purchased two albums off the Itunes store and found that in some tracks the music completely "cuts-out". About 30 seconds of the song plays, then the rest of the track is silent. It happens on both Itunes and on my Ipod. I haven't a clue what to do. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

It worked, Thanks!

Imported image sequences get cut off half-way through

Hi there! I'm trying to import an image sequence (jpeg) into Premiere Pro CS4 4.2.1 and having trouble getting the clip to play in entirety. My sequence is 24 fps and the footage I'm bringing in is a 5-second piece interpreted at 12 fps. (It was shot at 12 fps via Dragonframe software, on 1's). Unfortunately, the clip gets cut off half-way through. If I play it at 24 fps it's all there but much too short of course, and the wrong speed. If I play it back at 12 fps, only the first half or so of it shows up. All the files are numbered correctly, so there shouldn't be a cut-off. I feel like this might be some obvious problem, but google-and-forum searches have yielded nary a result. Anyone run into this or be able to tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Background info: I'm on a Dell Inspiron 1525, Windows Vista, 32-bit operating system, using Premiere Pro CS4 4.2.1, importing jpegs as an image sequence/numbered stills. Not running any other software, codecs, playback engines etc. to my knowledge.
Many thanks!

Thanks, John and Jim.
I went in to change the Indeterminate Media Timebase to 12, but there's no such number option in CS4. The lowest is 23.9-something, and 24 is the next one up. After bringing the sequence in and playing it in the little preview box in the upper left-hand corner, everything's there, but bringing it into the time-line cuts it off. Is this a glitch? Any other known ways around it? Worst comes to worst I guess would be importing the sequence in two halves.

Could be a bad inverter cable, that's a classic symptom.
