A different audio problem

I have a problem with my Video Ipod where certain songs, not all, are pretty low in volume. But in the last second of the song, the volume makes a sudden jump to being loud. This is very annoying and happens to quite a few of the songs...and it happens to specific songs. I want to rid of this problem without having to go through each and every single song and listening for which songs have this problem. Anybody have any clues as to how I might do this? It's bugging me like crazy.
PC Windows XP

I think I will try deleting the songs and then putting them back on the I-Pod. Hopefully THAT will work, although I'm not sure, because when I connect my Ipod and listen to these particular songs on I-tunes, the songs sound fine. Oh, and these songs used to be perfect before I updated the firmware. Does anybody see any other possible solutions before I do a restore? Because reloading 10,000+ songs and 25+ movies, AND re-doing my playlists seems like too much.

MTS (yeah I know, but this is different) audio problem

Okay, this is strange. I have a Sony FS100, that spits out MTS files. 25p and 50i work great, but 50p does have no audio. And I don´t mean a mute track, but no audio track at all. The strange thing is, when I play it back in the camera, there is all my sound, it just doesnt show up in Premiere. Any Ideas?

PCM audio in AVCHD MTS has been historically a little problematic with Premiere Pro. Everything was working fine (I use AF100 footage with PCM audio), but this Sony stuff is new enough that it probably was not around for testing and implementation in CS5.5. I'm assuming you're talking about CS5.5--I can't find an FS100 clip at this rate with this audio format to test.
If it is CS5.5 you're working with, be sure to report a bug: Adobe Feature Request/Bug Report Form. If you can, prepare a short clip with PCM audio that you can send to the engineering team--they will undoubtedly contact you if you outline the problem and say that you have a sample to test.

Multiple use of the same video time line for different audio tracks

I have a 90 minute video timeline
I will be putting different audio tracks in multiple languages.
But as i was just editing i wondered if i could use only a segment (30 minutes ) of the timeline
along with a 30 minute audio.
Example:
So the first thing on the menu will be the whole 90 minute video
with a 90 minute music track
Second thing might be the 90 minute video with a 90 minute commentary
Third thing might be the first 30 minutes of video with a different commentary
Forth thing on the menu might be the first 30 minutes of video and 30 minutes of
a different language
Etc.
I realize i will need to make space (mb) for all the audio.....but if i could use the same video or pieces of it
that would be fantastic.
If i can do this i am presuming i should use playlists and chapter playlists to get it done?
I have never done this before and would love some feedback on an over view or tips
that might save me some guess work
Thanks for any help :-)

Hey Stan!
Thanks for your help...i think i am really getting this. And have learned a lot.
I had to go back to my computer programming and flowcharting skills to figure out the flow :-)
And i still have 153mb to spare when i build it.
I ended up lining up all the different videos and audios exactly for each time line except for 1 timeline.
Question: I know if the audio is shorter it will be ok.... but if the audio is longer than the video on a timeline ( and its the audio i assigned it by specify link )
Will the DVD keep playing until the audio is done or end when the video is done playing?
2nd Question: I am previewing the playlists with the "Preview from Here" feature
I specify the link and chapter within that timeline ( it is the only timeline with more than one chaper....the one with the longer audio than video from the question above )
For most of the audios i only need video chapter 1.....the preview here plays it ok but if i hit the skip to next (in the preview button on theright of the play button)...it goes to the next chapter #2... instead of the next timeline chapter 1 like it is programed to do from the playlist.
I am wondering if this is just fluke in the preview feature...or will it do that on the actual DVD as well?
Lastly because i am using different timelines. I am wondering if there are delays between playlists? for example...i have a long audio that continues between three timelines...i have spliced it pretty fine so it picks up perfectly on the next timeline...but i am wondering if the DVD when playing in realtime will have a little black space inbetween timelines.
Thanks again for your help and time :-)

Hiya Mark.
DVD-Video is video dominant, with the audio always following the visuals so if the audio ends berfore the video it will not (okay, should not) be a problem.
However, the other way around could go either way - if the actual video timeline has ended the audio may well truncate so I would personally add videoblack at the very least.
I am also not at all sure how you are going to work a single contiguous audio file across 3 separate playlists. This sounds flawed in concept to me (have I misunderstood your meaning?). In DVD-Video the format is graphically/visually dominant - the audio must always be tied to a visual asset be it a menu or a timeline - so there is no way to have one piece of audio playing across 3 timelines and having it play back glitch free whilst the timeline changes. You will not get a black space - it will simply stop. So unless I have misunderstood you in some way.........
As Stan says, preview is flaky - the only way to know for sure is to multiplex & burn.

Mac Pro 2009 audio problems

Hi there.
I have a mac pro 2009 quad-core intel xeon and since i've updated to 10.7.3 i've started to have problems with audio.
Sometimes when i turn on the mac, the audio doesn't work (the audio icon in the menu bar is shown grey, and if i try to rise the volume using the keyboard it doesn't work.
I've tried to get inside the audio preferences and select a different audio output like the internal speakers (i currently have speakers connected into the jack output) but it doesn't work too.
The only way to resolve this seems to do a RAM reset during the boot, but it's very annoying do this every time.
Anyone can help me to resolve this? Is it a software problem? Or my logic board is going to die?
It never did anything like this before the update.
Thanks for the support and forgive me for my bad english.
Greetz,
Lorenzo

I'm having similar problems with a brand-new Mac Pro 8-core. Mouse cuts out (I'm using a wired keyboard thankfully) and my Jawbone headset will work wonderfully with my old MacBook Pro but will only pair (maybe) on my Mac Pro.
Called and spoke with an expert and feel I get the run around. He had me shut down and unplug everything for 30 seconds. I did it but felt he was just having me "do something" to get me off of the line.
Apple has a problem with Bluetooth on their Mac Pros and isn't dealing with it.

HOW TO FIX NO AUDIO PROBLEM IN FLASH (4 SOLUTIONS)

This solution is for WINDOWS ONLY!!! Unfortunately I believe
it is a bug in flash itself as I have read more than one instance
of this same no audio problem occuring on MAC'S and LINUX based
systems as well. IF YOU KNOW OF SOLUTIONS TO THE MAC OR LINUX BASED
PROBLEMS, PLEASE POST THEM IN THIS THREAD.
Description of the problem: Video sites such as YouTube,
VideoSift, Break, Google Videos, Yahoo, and a plethora of others do
not stream embedded audio. Viewing a YouTube video, for example, on
VideoSift.com results in the video playing back with no audio.
However, by going directly to YouTube and playing back the same
video, it appears to work.
THERE ARE SEVERAL POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS.
Problem: You may be missing your WAVEMAPPER driver.
Cause: Wavemapper driver was removed during installation or
updating of the Flash Player. It might not necessarily be Flash
that removes it but apparently something does.
Solution #1: Google "Flash No Audio WAVEMAPPER" for
directions, its been covered a bunch, but basically requires
running REGEDIT and readding the WAVEMAPPER key to the appropriate
location and value in the registry. Its not as difficult as it
sounds.
http://weyland.be/wrdprss/index.php/2006/08/22/no-sound-in-macromedia-flash-player-9/
if your wavemapper key is installed correctly...
Possible Cause: Corrupted or damaged flash content preventing
audio streaming from working correctly.
Soltuion #2: Run CC Cleaner and delete only cached Flash
content. It is a free program, again just google "download CC
Cleaner". This particular solution worked for me.
If CC Cleaner also does not work, the description of your
problem may differ slightly. In my case on several computers, one
day it worked, the next day it didnt. If it never worked, this
would be a logical solution for you. One variation of this that I
have found is to create a new Windows User Account and log into it.
The reason the CC Cleaner method may work better is that the User
Accounts have their own separate cache folders so a corrupted cache
preventing audio playback on one profile will not be available on
the other User Account to cause the same problem. I wont explain
how to do this as the CC Cleaner will work better but if you are
curious, yet again google "create new windows user accounts". I
have also seen this method work on one of my affected computers but
it did not fix the issue on the account I was having problems with.
http://www.ccleaner.com Install
and run it, use it only to remove Flash under the Applications Tab,
Multimedia, Adobe Flash Player. Check it and uncheck everything
else, then hit Analyze then Run Cleaner.
Possible Cause: Missing Codec
Solution #2: Download and install the K-Lite Codec pack.
Again, google it. A CODEC stands for COmpressor DECompressor and is
a way to make audio and video files small enough to be transferred
on the internet. There are a lot of different codecs and if you
want to play back a video that was compressed using a particular
codec, you will need that same corresponding codec to decompress
your media source and view its content. Basically if you dont have
a codec, you cant observe the content of the media. If you have a
VCR and want to play back a DVD, you are out of luck unless you get
a DVD Player. DivX and XVid Codecs are some of the very popular
codecs used on the net, but to get those, I still suggest getting
the K-Lite Codec Pack.
http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Codec_Pack.htm
Solution #4: Go back to Flash 7. If it aint broke dont fix
it. This Final alternative is only to be used as a last resort.
You'll have to get rid of Flash 9 and go back to Flash 7. The
really tricky part here is that you have to prevent Flash from auto
updating itself. If you install Flash 7, and hit up YouTube, you'll
immediately get Flash 9+ installed again with the same problems. So
AFTER you uninstall Flash 9 (use Macromedias / Adobes uninstaller,
yet again go google it) make a new text file and name it MMS.CFG,
in the file put this one line "AutoUpdateDisable=1" (without the
quotes) and put it in BOTH your c:\windows\system32 AND
c:\windows\system32\Macromed\Flash folders. This will prevent flash
from Auto Updating to 9+, then have to find some place to download
the old flash 7 installer. I found one here.
http://www.intercomm.com/downloads/Flash7.
Only problem is that most sites will try to make you install Flash
9 and Flash 7 does not work on all sites, but it does on some like
YouTube. DO NOT UPDATE TO FLASH 9+ IF YOU USE THIS METHOD.
You will probably want to IMMEDIATELY go to
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager05.htm l
after installing Flash 7 and UNCHECK the update feature
I've tried to write this quick little guide at 3AM so Im not
going to take more time to research other ways to fix this problem.
If you have other solutions, such as for MAC and LINUX, or feel
like adding on to something else that I've written here (links
would be useful to the downloads I suggested) or correcting any
mistakes I probably have made, please say so.
One of these solutions is bound to help you. Theres multiple
causes for this no audio problem so there is obviously multiple
fixes.

Macbook Pro jack Audio problem

Hi, suddenly the audio output from the jack of my macbook pro 13" is "distorted ". everything happened from one day to another. I did not do anything special, I tried to try different audio outputs to see that it was a cable problem, but as occurs with everything that I connect I'm afraid something has happened to my mac. What should I do? Thanks!

I found a temporary solution - killing the coreaudio process resets the audio and I'm good. But what causes it is still uncertain.

Severe audio problems in After Effects CS4 and MXF and more...

Hi!
I've been experiencing a lot of problems lately with several CS4 products.
First, and the worst, is that there seems to be some severe audio bug in After Effects when handling mxf-files. I pre-cut a project in premiere CS4, shot with a Sony EX1, and then imported the project in After Effects CS4.
In premiere everything worked fine and I had all the audio. In AE however the audio matched with the MXF-files disappeared (Yes I had the import audio box checked). All other audio worked fine from the music tracks and so on, but the MXF-files (MXF for NLE) was completely blank, the waveforms were completely flat. I checked every option there is in AE regarding audio and tried enabling and disabling XMP ID's and so on. After a lot of tweaking and testing I understood that the problem was not with any settings anywhere, the MXF-files lacked audio even if I started a new project and just imported the MXF-file.
The problem seems to be connected to when importing from Premiere. My colleague was editing a similar project on his computer in After Effects without problems, and he started out fresh in AE (didn't pre-cut in premiere). However, we tried to move my project to his computer, to see if the problem was connected with incompability with my hardware or such, and he got the same problem as me when he opened the project. Waveforms on MXF-files were completely flat. Certain confirmation that the problem was not connected with my computer appeared when he later reopened his own project, that had worked fine before, and audio was now completely gone - waveforms flat. An hour later, by chance, his audio suddenly popped back.
I have experienced this problems in two different projects in different forms (but both pre-cut in premiere). In the first, audio disappeared while previewing but was there when I ctrl-scrolled and rendered (no I hadn't muted audio in the preview panel). In the second, audio was completely gone even when rendered.
In both cases I tried saving and restarting the computer, reimporting from premiere, starting a fresh after effects project and only importing the mxf-files, changing the project settings, fps fixed to the correct instead of auto, changing output audio mapping, changing XMP, and so on in every possible way and combination I could imagine.
At my company our suspicion is that After Effects flags mfx-files imported from Premiere in some wierd way, to strengthen and ensure compatibility between the two - regarding different audio tracks, settings and effects from premiere (and this is almost what you could suspect that the XMP ID is for, but as explained with or without doesn't change a thing regarding this). We have no problem with the pure MXF support for AE, as MXF-files work just fine in After Effects if you import them directly and have not imported them through premiere earlier (but after a file has been "flagged" you seem to be sc***ed)
Anyone else experiencing this? Or am I missing something huge?
As additional notes, the dynamic link function seems extremely buggy and both premiere both sometimes complains about "dynamic link already in use and only one connection blah blah" even though only one link is used, and even though you restart the projects, programs, computer, whatever.
In furher addition Adobe Media Encoder (which also seems to be using some sort of dynamic link offspring) is super-buggy and most codec formats either doesn't start to render or just renders partially and then the program hangs. The problem have a connection with a process named pproheadless.exe eating upp all the RAM (4gbs).
(My workstation has been working smoothly for one and a half years and I have had very little problems with CS3 and "just" AE CS4. I am cautious of updates, don't have spyware and use Quicktime 7.5 as 7.5.5 is superbuggy and people seems to have problems with 7.6 and it doesn't fix the gamma issues anyway.)
Sorry if this was a long post but the problem is compl

Dude, that's what these forums are all about. Everyone in here says they dont work for Adobe, but they all act like apologists for what is clearly a disaster of a software release. My complaints aren't as specialized as yours, just very basic, and I wont go into all of them, because the list is long, and includes nearly every program in CS4.
I'm going for a refund, either from the retailer or my credit card company. Releasing software like this is dishonest.

Macbook Pro XP Boot Camp Audio Problem

I've got a uni body Macbook Pro running XP with boot camp. Everything has been fine for the last 4 or 5 months I've had it. In the last few weeks though, I've been having really annoying audio problems. The only reason I have it XP even installed is for games (Battlefield 2 and Steam). I'd run skype to talk to a buddy and then play the game. Audio was fine, including the mic.
Lately, skype will just shut down out of no where and give me that error message where it asks you to send a report. Also, the audio in Battlefield 2 will just cut out. I'd still be in the game and connected but there would be no audio, except for the game VOIP. Remember things were working fine for months.
First I tried repairing with the Mac disk, then I tried different Real Tek drivers, then I tried uninstalled and reinstalling the game. None of that worked. Finally, I nuked the partition and did a clean install. The first thing I installed was BF2. Guess what. SAME EXACT PROBLEM. Audio cut out about 10 minutes in. In game VOIP was fine but all other audio was gone.
Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas at ALL? There aren't exactly a bunch of different drivers I can try, and like I said I've already tried reinstalled the drivers from the mac disk. I have no idea what else to do.
tl:dr - new mbp audio worked fine for months, lately audio in games totally cuts out. Tried reinstalled game, drivers, etc, didn't work. Nuked from orbit and did clean bootcamp install of XP. Battlefield 2 has same problem, same with skype. What next?

What anti-virus solution are you running in Windows?
Users have experienced crashes and blue screens of death from Norton products. Norton has resolved these issues in their 2009 product line. I would only recommend Norton 2009 products, Kaspersky, and AVG for anti-virus solutions.
Have you formatted your Windows partition as NTFS, or has it been formatted as Fat 32?
Fat 32 will not handle file sizes of 3.5 GB or larger, and, overall, it seems to always cause issues.
Have you tried a SMC reset?

What is the best way to deal with different audio sample rates on the same timeline ?

what is the best way to deal with different audio sample rates on the same timeline ?

You don't have to do anything special. If possible, start your project with a clip that has the desired target frame rate and audio sample rate, and your project parameters will be set automatically. Other sample rates will be converted under the covers.
For example, if your video is shot at 48khz, you can add music files at 44.1khz with no problem.
If you are recording audio that you want to synch with video (multicam), you will get best results if everything is 48khz, but you can use 44.1 if that is all you have. Once I forgot to reset my Zoom to 48,000 and it still worked.

Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5 Audio Problem

Hi guys kinda new to Premiere pro, but first time this has even happened to me.
See f ica explian this well.
Ok so i've been editing up loads of gaming footage late all from my Hauppauge Gaming Editon 2. Never had a problem till now, there a clip for some reason the audio is so crazy out of whack its impossable to even try and resync you're self. Like there some bit of it where the near end of the clip auido plays in the for 3 mins then it goes back to being like 20 seconds out of sync. It plays fine in Windows media player and quick time but in adobe it goes NUTS!
All the other cilps are fine just this one clip has gone crazy on me.
Any ideas how to fix this.
Ask away and i'll answer everything i can to the best, need to get this fixed to get this video finish asap...
Thanks.

yea i am using the right sequence
here are 4 screen shots of 2 different things i was editing, both used to record my xbox 360 with Hauppauge, Seems adobe is the only program playing the video file with the audio out of sync/mixed up

The Yellow Devil May Cry video is the video with the audio problem,
The metal gear rising video is red because of the pic above it, and the sound works ok on that, infact that video is finished and uploaded to youtube now.

Same video, different audio?

2.83 quad core, 8gb RAM, 4850 series video card, CS4.
Working on a DVD of my feature, and I'm putting together the special features. I imported the video of my feature, which comes in at about 5.9GB. I have two audio files: one is the soundtrack to the film, the other is the audio commentary track. I had no problem setting up the feature. Made a timeline, added the video and audio, and was fine.
Now working in the Special Features menu, want to put together the audio commentary. So naturally, I thought the way to do this is to create a new timeline, put the video in, and put the audio commentary track in rather than the regular soundtrack. Checked the "build" tab and I'm somewhere in the 11GB range, far more than the standard dual layer dvd capacity. Have I done something wrong? Is there a better way to do this? Or am I really going to need to compress the feature's video that far down as to allow for space? Thanks for any and all help.

Many thanks! I think my problem was that I was trying to reassign the audio using the override option, rather that going directly into the assigned video and telling it to use a different audio. Either way, works like a charm. I appreciate it!

Audio problems in CP4/Vista x64

I have two audio problems that may, or may not, be related.
I've tried two different microphones, one USB and one "standard", none of the were recogniced by CP4.
I'm also unable to import sound files, not even the files that ships with the software works. In this case I get an error message saying something about CP being unable to decode and opening the files.
I've tried to the nsaudio.dll fix, but to no avail
Any ideas?

Audio problems with SBLive! 5.1 and Windows XP Pro,

I just reinstalled Windows XP Pro from a slipstreamed CD with SP2 on it. (That means I can't just remove SP2 without reinstalling Windows.) Now, when I play a game the audio skips and stutters for the first 5-0 min of gameplay. The skipping and stuttering goes away eventually, but its REALLY annoying. This is the only hardware problem I've had with SP2, and I would like to know if there is a patch in the planning to fix all the SP2 Sound Blaster problems, or do we all have to find our own work around for these things.
If anyone has a solution for this please let me know. I've already installed the UniDriver thing, and it still acts up. I've tried removing and reinstalling everything, cleaning out my registry, and rebooting. Defragging my HD did not work either. Nothing seems to work.
CPU= AMD Athlon XP 2600+
RAM=704Mb
Video=GeForce 4 MX440 AGP 28DDR
Please help soon.

I think I may have solved my problem. I recently installed Full Spectrum Warrior. I installed it to a different dri've than all of my other games. Lo and behold, no audio problems. After some further investigation, I believe that the audio problem lies in an old hard disk dri've that is in the beginning stages of failure. After I actually thought about it, my load times from this hard disk have been taking forever, but Full Spectrum Warrior loads very quickly. The dri've is going to die! But I guess it's ok, the dri've is almost 0 years old, and this is the 3rd computer its been in.
Thanks for your help,
Josh

Solve my corrupted audio problem for $$ and eternal gratitude

My video project has corrupted audio suddenly. I've read about other audio problems when exporting, but all I did was save the project while editing, no export. I have the prefs set to extract audio at pasteover, which I've done a lot of for this 2-camera wedding shoot. I also have the second audio track occasionally used for background music. All three tracks (video, audio 1, audio 2) on the timeline have corrupted audio for the entire length of the project. It sounds like a helicopter whirr was added, it's very choppy. Also, both cpus are maxxed out and the process monitor shows iMovie utilizing 180%+ consistently. When iMovie isn't running, it's in the single digits. As soon as I load iMovie the cpus max out. This hasn't happened the whole project, just recently. So what changed? I don't know. I've been doing the same thing the whole time, the pasteovers, the add titles, the add background track, saving the project every couple of minutes. Each time I've saved, it looks like it's listing off different files or clips, not just the changed clips. I've tried deleting the QT movie it created in the cache and let it recreate to see if that would help, but it didn't. Would deleting the files in the waveform cache help? I've got about 30 hours into this project already and would love to resurrect this audio if possible. Either that or it's Jim Beam and call it a day. I thought this was non-destructive editing, but apparently that's just the originals? That doesn't help much when the whole project audio goes in the toilet and I'm looking at redoing this whole project. Anyone who can fix this is getting a big ol' sloppy kiss on the mouth and an iTunes gift certificate.

I've never personally seen the audio problems you describe, but there's some things I'd try before giving up. As you've probably read, it's not unusual to have playback problems in projects containing complex audio. The odds for it seem to increased in QuickTime 7.
1. Try opening the "TimeLine Movie.mov" that's inside the Cache folder of the project in QuickTime Player. If the audio plays okay there, the audio data is intact and you're seeing a playback anomaly in iMovie. (QuickTime Player may choke too, but don't conclude anything from that.)
To access the movie, Control-click on the project icon and choose "Show Package Contents".
2. Try exporting ONLY the project audio to an AIFF file, then import THAT back into the project and replace the audio you have. That will "flatten" the audio and make it much easier to play. (To be safe, on a copy of the project.)
Or if you have QuickTime Pro, you might try extracting all the audio from the Timeline movie.
To export to an AIFF file, choose File > Export, click on QuickTime, set the popUp menu to "Expert Settings", press Share, then from the top popUp menu, choose "Sound to AIFF". Choose the level of quality you want from the bottom popUp menu, then Save.
What may be going on here is that extracting audio has created MANY audio files in the project, some possibly very large. (Each time we extract audio from a clip that is part of a Media file shared with other clips, iMovie extracts ALL the audio from that Media file, not just the audio of the selected clip.) To see what audio files the project contains, look in the Media folder of the project.
If you get this solved, please say how.
Oh, and if you haven't updated to iMovie 7.1, you might try that. There were improvements in handling multiple audio tracks, I read somewhere.
BTW, it's usually not a good idea to change things inside the project package. iMovie can get pretty confused. The Timeline movie is replaced each time we save, so that's not a big deal.

IPhone 4S audio problems

There was a lot of complaints in the forums until recently about audio problems in the iPhone 4S. Different people had different problems. Mine is that the person I am calling, or the person that is calling me, cannot hear me, although I can hear them. I never saw any mention of resolution to those problems. Does anyone have any idea what the resolution might be?

I have a similar issue. I just installed a Jabra Drive and now, the default audio source is the Jabra...even when I am not near the device. When i answer a call, or make an outgoing call on my iPhone, I need to manually switch the audio source to the iPhone.
This was never an issue with my Morotola H17 bluetooth ear piece.
