AA3 and AC3 6ch

Hello,
When import ac3 file into Adobe Audition 3 I get this error message:
"end of file found too early, data will be truncated".
The duration of the source ac3 file was about 65 min in duration, after  importing it into Adobe Audition 3 I end up with only 62 mins of file.
Any ideas why this is happening?
Best!

Your question is almost a year old but...
I noticed the same problem while running Audition 3 with "AC3Filter Audition plugin 0.2a" on a 32-bit WinXP system. As Audition reads the AC3 file, it creates a much larger scratch file in Audition's temp folder (on an NTFS drive). When the scratch file reaches 2GB the error message appears. My guess is Audition or the plugin has a 2GB file size limit or memory limit, at least in that situation. Solution unknown. Maybe 64-bit Windows would help.

  • Replication house tells me my burned pcm and ac3 is mpeg

    Sorry for the double post, just saw this audio section.
    I'm having a difficulty with my burned dvds apparently coming out mpeg audio. I exported from pp 1.0 a final mpeg video with PCM audio for my final dvd project. I used Encore CS3 to burn the disc. I sent in the disc to a replication house and they warned me that the audio was mpeg and would not work in all players.
    So I checked my original exported file audio in the properties and it said PCM. But, just in case, I put it back in Encore and transcoded it as Dolby Digital (AC3), and burned that disc. I also burned another disc that was PCM.
    They just informed me that the two new discs I sent in were not PCM and AC3 but were again MPEG audio.
    Am I doing something wrong?
    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks very much Ruud. I downloaded the MediaInfo and, if I'm reading the disc correctly, it appears that what I've been puzzled about was easily discovered.
    I have a copyright warning as a first play. It was that copyright warning that had an silent audio track under it, and it was MPEG audio. My end action to that is the 88 minute documentary and it clearly says it's transcoded in AC-3.
    I'm assuming that I need to reburn a disc and transcode that Copyright warning audio to AC-3 as well or just remove it? Or would you think it will not give anyone trouble since there is no real sound anyway.
    I'd appreciate it if you'd look at the below MediaInfo over and see if I'm reading that right. Thanks so much. This is all new stuff to me.

  • Audigy 2, DTS and AC3 passthrough in Windows 7

    I have this problem, see in my windows xp partition my dts and ac3 passthrough works flawlessly, but in windows 7 i can't get any kind of recognizable signal from my soundcard to my reciever.
    So my short question is, is this something that is an known issue with the drivers so far?
    is there som quick fix, or am i just a bit slow
    it's a pain to have to boot another OS just to watch a movie... still i know my soundcard is getting a bit old and if there's no easy solution i'm thinking of getting something newer to save me the trouble.
    but i think it should not be such a big problem to just shovel along the signal without decoding it!
    I have the plain Audigy 2 without any extras or letters at the end.

    never mind, i'm a jackass...
    i didn't think to check if there was a creative console with the drivers, i thought the windows 7 nati've control panel overided all that. set the creative control panel to passthrough and voila... it works

  • Import M2V and AC3 Error

    I have downloaded the trial of Adobe Production Premium CS5 and am having a little trouble with Premiere Pro.  This is a clean install, no other version has ever been installed on this system.  It looks like both M2V and AC3 files are supported by Premiere, yet when I try to import them I get the following error: The file has an unsupported compression type.  So how do I import these files?  Any help is appreciated.

    CS5 has made a major, and much welcomed departure - one no longer needs to remove and run Adobe Clean Scrip. The S/N from the full-paid version will convert the program. While all is not perfect with Adobe, this is a wonderful change!
    Good luck,

  • Xvid and ac3 quicktime codec

    Hi All, got my mini yesterday, hooked it up and all is good. All my movies and tunes are stored on my NAS and sync with front row via aliases. I need an quicktime xvid and ac3 codec that is compatable with intel macs. The regular ones wont work, but they do on my imac G4.
    Any thoughts of where I can get some as, ones ive downloaded dont seem to work.
    cheers

    Is the external drive mounting on the desktop before you go to frontrow?
    My set up consists of two drives. The first is a 250 GB lacie mini companion (sits under mini) connected by firewire, this holds all my movies. I created a folder called 'movies' then made an alias and then put this in my movies folder.
    One thing I found is that if you movies are structured like this:
    'movie folder' > then film ie: sincity.mpg
    Front row has a real problem loading all of the films as a list. To over come this put every film into a seperate folder like this:
    'movie folder' > Sincity folder > sincity.mpg
    My second drive is a NAS this holds all my music. I had to create a automator script to mount this drive on start up other wise front row music wont work.
    So I dont know why this wont work for you?

  • M2v and AC3 dont Merge in Toast

    Hello maybe i was wondering why doesnt Toast Joins the M2v and AC3 files sometimes when i'm trying to burn them, i mean all this these years i have been joining them as usual but since some months ago sometimes i just add the Video file and doesnt ask me for the audio, i said sometimes because there are times when it doesnt ask to merge them and some other times it does, i dont know but i dont feel very confortable with Toast not asking me to join them.
    Thanks for any assitance

    Are you seeing a shift in duration to g with the sync shift? maybe try a test encode in Compressor to see if Cinemacraft is changing the duration of your video. I use compressor for both mpeg and ac3 encodes, and nenver see this type of shift.

  • Dts and ac3 - incompatible format

    I have been given some pre-encoded dts and ac3 (5.1) files that were encoded on a windows audio encoding system. DVDSP gives me the "incompatible format" message and cannot import them. I suspect the data itself is fine, and there is problem with the file headers on the windows-created files.
    Anyone know of a way I can force the files to be readable to DVDSP from my mac, or any tips I can give the person doing the encoding on making the files compatible with DVDSP?
    the extension on the dts files is .dtshd
    I am able to open the ac3's with VLC, but not with any apple programs.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    One of the reasons for non-importing AC-3 file could be wrong parameters. Have you specified your requirements for AC-3 files (bit-rate, metadata, etc). Can you see the file parameters in VLC?
    DTS files used to come in two flavors, before HD-DVD and Blu-Ray were invented: padded dts file (.dts) and compact dts file (.cpt). The new HD formats pushed the envelope pretty high, and extension such as dtshd could signify exactly that: DTS-HD file which is not compatible with SD DVD specs.
    DVD SP can import only compact dts files with .cpt extension, and it is very finicky about parameters.
    For example earlier version of Minnetonka's DTS DVD encoder, copies of which can be found on the web, have a bug that prevents DVD SP from importing the files produced by it.
    You should contact the audio house and ask them about procedures and parameters used to create the problematic files

  • Re-use of .264 and .ac3 created by compressor or fcp-share

    Good Morning from Belgium
    Here is my question
    How do I reburn a blu-ray without having to reencode in compressor or using "share" in fcp. In other words, how to re-use the .264 and .ac3 files created in a previous burning session ? I have tried Toast 9 but get 2 files (one with audio, one with video) .
    Can I safely delete those huge files if it is not possible to use them later with any software ?
    Hope you can help
    Michel

    I can put a movie in Compressor, add the video and audio presets and then select "Create BD/AVCHD Disc" in the Job Action menu but that will only create one disc.
    My idea was to save the .264 and .ac3 files so that I could burn another disc at a later date.
    I can do this with Toast but there is no way I can use those files in Compressor again (that I know about).
    What exactly did you mean by burn it from a disk image?
    I can do that in Toast but I don't know how to do it with Compressor.

  • AA3 and Windows Vista

    I have been using Adobe Audition 1.0 for years, no problems at all(for the most part). I was mainly using it for my own pleasure and running it on XP. I recently decided to take a shot at recording as a business. So I went out and bought a new computer, laptop and all the gear and figured while im at it id upgrade to AA3. Problem is, on my laptop when I record using both AA3 and AA1.0, it does not record in sync. It records about a half second late. How can I fix this? Is this a Vista issue? My laptop? or an Adobe Problem?
    Just for reference Im using a Sony VAIO (this laptop is only for my own personal recording, not for business) and running the Tape Out from my board into the mic input of my laptop. Is this not correct? I used the same method on XP with my old computer. This laptop has an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T5750 @ 2.00 Ghz and 2.00 GB of ram.
    What can I do??

    Heres some shots of my audition problems that may help.
    The first image is the multi track view with no pan option.
    The second image is my newest error message Ive been receiving.
    The third image is my audio hardware setup, maybe its not correct?
    The fourth image is the control panel for asio4all.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks again.

  • Re-burn a DVD from .m2v and .ac3 files

    Can someone explain to me if one can re-burn a DVD from Compressor after you've created the .m2v (mpeg-2) and .AC3 (dolby audio) files?
    Here is my problem. I create a DVD with Compressor and have both the .m2v and .ac3 files on my drive. I'd like to save these and not have to re-compress the original ProRes file all over again and just burn these again to another DVD in the future.
    How do you do that? Do you need another program to do this?
    Any help appreciated!

    No.  Compressor can't use the elementary streams to build a DVD.
    To burn multiple DVDs, save to a disk image (Output Device = Hard Drive) and burn that from that in Disk Utility.

  • Lost my m2v and ac3 files and want to recosntruct from a final DVD

    I lost the compressed files m2v and wav that I used to generate a menu driven DVD at the time I was using a Windows based PC (I used Pinnacle Impression with a menu to generate the final DVD.
    Now I no longer use this PC and made the big step to the Mac world in buying a MacPro with FinaCutPro and DVD STudio Pro. The only thing I have left is the final DVD with its usual contents (VOB files).
    Is it possible to find a way to import the VOB files (with the sound) into DVD Studio Pro, split it by Chapter and re-create a brand new menu ? Or using Compressor or FCP in intermediate steps before using DVD Studio Pro ?

    Francois:
    Is it possible to find a way to import the VOB files (with the sound) into DVD Studio Pro, split it by Chapter and re-create a brand new menu ?
    You can use * MPEG Streamclip * to extract the original m2v and ac3 files from the VOB file without any quality loose, and use such files in a new DVDSP project. You'll have to rebuild your menus and navigation.
    Hope that helps !

  • How to directly burn .m2v and .ac3 files on a DVD?

    I made a DVD movie processing on Compressor but I forgot to select the "Job Action" (Create DVD), so now I have the 2 files .m2v and .ac3 but I have to burn the DVD. How can I do without re-processing the original movie?
    Thanks

    If you have Toast or DVD Studio you can use these files. If not, you'll may need  to re-encode the movie.
    But try this if you saved the the Compressor project that made those elementary streams. Reopen it and slightly change the name of the output files (say, by adding a numeric prefix to each name). When you do the yellow warning triangle should go away. Change the job action to burn DVD and submit, If it works, you should get a near-complete progress bar in a matter of seconds. Then you should be able to burn your physical disk or make a disk image for multiple copies.
    Good luck.

  • How to Add .m2v and .ac3 files in encore?

    I am doing my HD post in FCP and creating .m2v and .ac3 files using compressor. I would like to burn my DVDs in encore to try out blu-ray DVDs. How do I add separate .ac3 and .m2v files in encore?
    Thanks

    They get created as separate files originally. Just Import both and add each to the timeline.

  • AA3 and Amplitube metal

    Hi,
    As a rookie, this is my second "stupid" question about AA3 and VST's. (Geez, I am not even aware of the difference between VST and VSTi)
    So. Is Amplitube an effect on an audio track? or again a midi track thingie? Is it possible to play through Amplitube live inside AA3 or does it only come to stage while recording or after?
    I would really hear something out of Amplitube "inside" AA3 to record something. What are the very basic settings needed?
    Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
    Okan

    I don't have Metal but I assume its the same as the Hendrix one.
    Go into Edit View
    Select Effects/VST Plug in Manager and make sure Amplitube Metal is ticked
    Select a track and make sure the guitar is setup to record into that track ie select the correct input.
    Select the FX button in the Mixer view and open the effects rack and select VST/Amplitube Metal (My options are Amplitube /2 or Amplitube / Jimmy Hendrix.
    Down the bottom of the AA screen in multitrack view make sure monitoring is set to Audition Mix
    Check out 'smart input' in the help file
    >In Multitrack View, you can hear inputs with effects and sends that youve applied to a track, giving you an accurate preview of how recorded material will sound in the final mix.

    >Note: ASIO sound cards are highly recommended for this feature. DirectSound cards increase latency (an audible delay) that disrupts timing for musicians.

  • How do I create a DVD from existing M2V and AC3 files?

    I have previously used Compressor 4 to render a M2V file and an AC3 file from which I burned a DVD 'job'.  Now, a week later, I wish to go back and burn another DVD from these files, (without rendering them again).  How do I use these EXISTING files to create another DVD (using Compressor 4)?
    Thanks,
    Geoff

    If you anticipate that you may need multiple disks, the way to do it is to select Hard Drive as your output device/ That makes a disk image, from which you can burn multiple copies.
    WIth the separate files already created, you could bring them into an authoring program like Toast. But if you want to re-use them in Compressor, I think your only option is to multiplex them in something like MPEG STreamclip and bring the new file back into Compressor.
    Probably easier to redo the Compressor job with the original source.
