Adding video and audio goes to track 4....

Seems to only happen from videos I record of my Flip Video recorder but I don't know why. Any ideas?

To check Jim's assumption (which I think is correct), look at the icons of the "speakers" on the Tracks. Does your Track 4 have a single "speaker?"
My "default" Project is 2 mono and 3 stereo, so I usually have a few unused Tracks, when I'm initially placing my AV files (video & audio) onto the Timeline. If I do not, and my source Audio file is not a stereo file, then APP creates a new mono Track, below the stereo ones.

  • Video and audio goes out of sync when imported into Premiere

    I have some videos ripped from some DVD that an acquaintance made, with an open source program called HandBrake, with the default "high profile" settings. When I play it both in VLC and in Quicktime, it plays just fine, but when I import it either in Premiere or in After effects, the video and audio goes out of sync (the video ran faster than the audio and when the video stops, the missing audio is trimmed).
    Video info according to Premiere (in Spanish but you may get the meaning).

    "HandBrake, these days, is almost entirely about H.264 video, aka MPEG-4 Part 10.  HandBrake is migrating to quality-based encoding."
    Hmmm.  I use HC Encoder to make my DVDs because it's the only free encoder I've found with the much more professional Constant Q encoding option.  But HC Encoder doesn't do HD sources for Blu-ray, so I've been wondering if I'd be stuck with the lame-*** consumer CBR and VBR options most encoders provide (including Adobe - hint, hint) when I eventually start working in HD.  This is a very interesting program, Handbrake.  I will have to check it out.

    Hello All...
    Back after a brief absence, things look a little bit different.
    I'm trying to take a 16 minute mini dv video and compress it for use on the web. I'm interested in any suggestions you may have on settings for the video and audio tracks. I've tried using Sorenson 3 (15 frames, key frames set to automatic, 320 x 240) for video and IMA 4:1 (mono) for audio. The resulting video looked great but the file size came in at about 255 Mb.
    Thanks!

    Thank you for the replies.  Everyone was correct about the jack, interface, and phasing problems.  I have been unplugging my motu audio interface and then using headphones at work.  I have not changed any detailed audio output settings in logic.  When I read that the jack might be a problem I tried switching headphones.  This actually helped.  I am using dre-beats headphones and they seem to be having issues with the mac/jack-(the phasing/panning problems.  I can use these headphones with other devices but not the mac.  I have to use ipod ear buds and the phasing seems fixed.  Hopefully this information is helpful to someone else. 
    If anyone knows how to correct this issue please let me know its difficult to know what my final mixes are going to sound like and I have had to keep bouncing everything into i-tunes- sync to ipod and then listen in my car radio. 

  • How many video and audio tracks now?

    If there is one single bad thing in iMovie is the lack of tracks. Most "consumer editors" would like at least 3 sets of stereo audio tracks and the titles would be nicer on a separate track. But in the iMovie site there is no mention to those things. Strange, every video app site has some specs about video and audio tracks, even the free ones.

    Hi John,
    Unfortunately the iMovie '06 has the exact same arrangement as '05: One video track and two audio tracks. I was so badly hoping for at least a second video track in the new version because that makes things so much better, but for some reason they didn't add one. They probably know that less people would shell out $300 for Final Cut Express if they added a second video track to iMovie. sigh
    A big disappointment.

  • Video and audio tracks not synchronized after importing

    When I try to watch a video in quicktime or itunes video and audio tracks not synchronized. If I wach on another player they are synced. Anyone help?

    John:
    Thanks for your reply.  Excuse my referring to you as "Kevin".  I'm new to the Adobe Community.  I have also referenced another article which is seemingly a bit easier to fix for such a non-technical woman like myself.  I'm going to try both solutions.  Whichever works I'll be sure to reply to the thread with my findings.  I found this article which provides the following solution:  http://blog.flickharrison.com/2012/04/problem-solving-in-adobe-premiere-audio-glitches-and -sync/

  • Video and Audio Track Destination in FC Pro

    Sometimes my Source Bar (In the Timeline) doesn't allow me to execute it. That is in the video and audio tracks.
    g-5   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Hi there,
    I just came across this problem. I had a clip in the viewer with video and audio and a sequence in the timeline. But somehow FCP wouldn't let me edit the video into the timeline, I couldn't patch the video.
    So I opened up another sequence. Same thing.
    Third sequence, and the video track selector miraculously appears.
    Any ideas? After I quit and restarted FCP, it all worked normally.
    Tales from the not-so-far-side, I guess.....
    Cheers,

  • Is it possible to group video and audio tracks separately in the timeline?

    Currectly tracks are ordered like this:
    video
    audio
    video
    audio
    video
    audio
    Can I arrange them to look more like:
    video
    video
    video
    audio
    audio
    audio
    Since I get to use both Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro frequently at work, I would find it more natural if audio and video were grouped separately.

    You are welcome.
    I find it interesting, as about 10% of the users of PrE would like to arrange the Audio & Video Tracks in the form of PrPro, however, about 10% of the users of PrPro would like to arrange them like PrE!
    Personally, I find the PrPro arrangement (as you were requesting) to be the most logical for my workflow. I do my Video first, and like all Tracks grouped atop the divider line, and when done there, move down to my Audio. I still get lost and confused in PrE, because of the grouping there.
    Now one little tip, that might help you a bit: one can Add, or Delete Tracks pretty easily. I have a Sequence (think multiple Timelines in PrE) Preset that gives me 4 Video Tracks, 1 mono Audio Track, 4 stereo Audio Tracks, and a DD 5.1 SS Master Track. This is the "average" of the normal Timelines that I work with. When doing an edit, where the extra Tracks are not needed, I choose Sequence>Delete Unused Tracks to "clean" things up a bit. Then, I am only looking at Tracks (Video and Audio) that are in use.
    Good luck,

  • Can I link and lock video and audio tracks - layers - as in Photoshop?

    I'd like to link and lock entire clips of video and audio tracks, as I might in Photoshop, so that I can insert some material ahead of this group without having to move each separate tack in my timeline. I have a group of clips which works well together now, and it would be so nice to be able to link them, lock them together as on unit, and just insert the new material into the timeline ahead of this piece. Any ideas?

    alann
    What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system?
    For now, a generalized Premiere Elements Windows answer.....
    You would select all the clips (all at one time) that you want to move together, then Clip Menu/Group.
    Or right click anywhere in the selection to bring up the pop up menu including the Group option.
    Have you been there and done that yet?
    Please supply more information so that we can fine tune the information that you seek.
    Thank you.

  • Can't play Video and audio tracks.

    What software components are necessary to play the video and

  • Combining Separate Video and Audio tracks

    Hi, what's the best way to combine a video and audio tracks into a single file? We will be given the video and audio from 13 volleyball games, and each game will be coming as a file.mpg (mpeg2) video and an mp3 file.
    We're looking for a way to either manually bring it in, or bulk automate a way of combining the two tracks for each game to have one file that is in a format that doesn't need to be rendered in FCP.
    Thanks!

    Seems like there should be some way to combine clips somewhere though? < </div>
    Not if they're form separate devices or in different codecs. the MPEG2 files are the big problem, next time, have your people shoot conventional DV and use the audio interface to bring in a feed from your announce booth or radio station or whatever so it's in sync.

  • Independant video and audio tracks separate

    I am using Premiere Elements 12 on a PC. I am working on a multimedia project combining video, stills and audio. Independant video and audio tracks separate when I insert a still image on another track. The tracks are not grouped or linked together. I do not know how to prevent this happening. The manual suggests pressing the Alt button when inserting but this does not work.

    skinnymurray
    Holding down the Alt key of the computer main keyboard does work and works well under most ordinary conditions. Please practice and refine your Alt technique with care patience. But....
    Have you tried keeping certain parts of your established track content together by using the Group command after selecting a
    bunch of clips all at one time?

  • Video and Audio Track Selection

    Is there any quick way to do this? Nothing in the keyboard shortcuts menu that seems close to "Sleect Video Track 1", "Select Audio Track 1", etc. Is it only achieveable with a mouse? Thanks all.

    I have made custom keyboard shortcuts for video and audio tracks using Toggle Track.
    I use numbers 1 to 7 for Video and Shift 1-7 for Audio.
    In conjunction with Mouse clicking and shift mouse clicking on tracks..does all that I need.

  • How to align or sync video and audio?

    In Premiere 13,  once I have added a video/audio clip and then either slow down the clip or add photos in between the clip causes the video and audio to be out of sync.  How does one re-align or re-sync the clip once it has been edited?  Thanks

    On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running?
    There are several ways to avoid disturbing an existing Timeline when you are adding to it.
    1. Using what are called keyboard modifiers, such as Ctrl or Alt (Windows).
    2. Grouping block of clips so that the clips move together
    The following video tutorial is offered for informational and not promotional reasons
    Premiere Elements: Arranging clips on the Timeline using modifier keys | lynda.com - YouTube
    It uses a version of Premiere Elements earlier than 13, but the principles involved are the same.
    The video and audio that are going out of sync.... are they linked or grouped before the addition to the existing Timeline?
    After the fact, you will need to move the Timeline components back in place.
    If the video and audio are not linked or group, you can
    (a) highlight the clip, hold down the Alt key of the computer main
    keyboard and tap the appropriate arrow key for a 1 frame per tap nudge of the clip.
    (b) highlight the clip, hold down the Shift+Alt key of the computer main
    keyboard and tap the appropriate arrow key for a 5 frames per tap nudge of the clip.
    Please review and consider. If questions or need clarification on the above, please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thank you.

  • How to sychronise a streaming video and audio?

    Hello everyody,
    I created a player application which plays a streaming video together with a sound. In the beggining it starts ok and sychronised but later video goes slower than sound and as a result they are totally out of sych at the end. I believe the problem is that the video file is bigger than the sound file and it buffers more so the video always stays behind the sound. Is there any way to fix it and have my video and audio always sychronised? To have the sound embeded with the audio is not an option.
    Thank you in advance.

  • I get silent audio after i separate the video and audio

    I'm using vintage video that I downloaded from the Internet.  in one project I separated the audio and video, ditched the audio, and exported, via share, the visual clips I need for my final video.  in a new project, I imported the segments to place over the audio I created with music software.  the segments have a silent audio, that is, it has a part that goes on the audio track, but it's silent.  it covers my audio and I can't hear it.  I don't know why this happens or how to avoid it.  help!
    Thanks,

    What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running? Are you working with sources that come with copyright? For now I will assume no copyright protection involved.
    I understand what you are doing through the point that you get rid of the original audio of a video file that has audio linked to it.
    And, further I understand that you bring just that export video portion into a new project which has your "audio ...created with music software".
    But after that I need clarification.
    1. I would expect that, in the new project, you import the video to Video 1 to relate to the music that is already on Audio 1 or the Soundtrack.
    I lose you when you write
    the segments have a silent audio, that is, it has a part that goes on the audio track, but it's silent. it covers my audio and I can't hear it.
    2. I am wondering if you are really saying that when you export the video portion of your file, the export has a video and audio component (silent audio component)? If that is the case, in the export settings under the Advanced Button of the export preset selected, place a check mark only next to Export Video. Remove the check mark next to Export Audio.
    See example below from Premiere Elements 12 Windows. On the left...Export Settings and the Export Video and Export Audio boxes for check mark as needed. In the example I have a check mark only next to "Export Video".
    3. But you can do everything in the same project, I would think. Right click the video with its linked audio, select Delete Audio. And then import your music into
    that same project.
