After reducing audio in all clips, audio still plays?

When making music videos, I reduce the volume to 0% in all the clips. This worked for a while, but after making multiple music videos, the audio still played AFTER I reduced it to 0%.

That's a real shame, kinda renders the software useless if you cannot match video to music timing.. I just edited my first movie with imovie9 and the amount of bugs i found was astonishing. I feel i'm only doing simple things with it.
Very disappointing..

Extracted audio still plays.

Hi Everyone,
I extracted the audio from a very short video clip. I want the clip to run in slow motion. My problem is that I don't hear any sound when I play the clip normally, but when I try to add the slow motion effect, the audio comes back. Any solutions?
Thanks, Jennifer

Sometimes (..always?..) when you try out an effect in the little Preview window, after the audio's been extracted, the audio still plays.
However, that's just a feature (bug?) of the effect preview.
My experience is that if you actually Apply the effect, when you've tested it - so that the timing is correct for what you want - the audio, in the real clip, does stay muted, etc.
I've had muted ('extracted') audio still playing - in that teeny Preview window - when I try to slow down or reverse a clip. Nevertheless, when I've Applied the effect, everything's as it should be.
I think that the Preview facility relies on a separate little QuickTime player, and that doesn't necessarily pick up all the alterations you've made to your project until after the effect has been Applied. (..The effect and transition Preview generally tries to play from a memory cache, so it plays back a clip from within the computer's memory, instead of reading from the list of recent alterations to the project, such as audio muting..)

I am importing a video and in iMovie the video is now white. the audio still plays and I can play the video properly outside of iMovie so any help is good?

I am importing a video and in iMovie the video is now white. the audio still plays and I can play the video properly outside of iMovie so any help is good?

I going to recommend again, downloading and installing some video helper applications.
1. http://perian.org/ (this will add a number of different file types to the ones QuickTime already plays)
2. http://www.divx.com/en/software/mac (will add more file types to what QuickTime can play)
Either one of these might be necessary to get MPEG Streamclip to export the video. Failing that the only other thing I have found is an obscurve discussion thread on Avid.com:
http://duc.avid.com/archive/index.php/t-277791.html
I've figured out what the problem is on my end. The video came from Avid on a Windows machine and was encoded with Squeeze. I found out that the 2 seconds of black at the top of the video were at a different frame rate than the rest of the video. I chopped off the 2 seconds of black and started at the first frame of video, exported it with Quicktime Pro and was able successfully view the video in ProTools. Apparently Squeeze will let you create a movie file that has different frame rates within the same movie... This fixed my issue that was exactly as you describe, hopefully it might work for you.
Lastly, you could try converting the video clip using HandBrake

I removeChild but audio still plays

I have as3 script that loads an external swf which contains flv video:
var eventInitialLoader:Loader = new Loader();
var eventInitialURL:String = parent['eventPath'+ie];
var eventInitialRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(eventInitialURL);
eventInitialLoader.load(eventInitialRequest);
eventOdd.addChild(eventInitialLoader);
...And some script later on that removes it:
eventOdd.removeChild(eventInitialLoader);
The movie clip is removed but the audio continues to play. Why is this? What can I do to make sure the audio is removed also?
Thank You!

Hey BrianatArean I have the same problem . Were you using the Video class? I user this code to kill everything but the audio still plays:
public function stopIt()
            video.clear();
            ns.close();
        public function killIt()
             trace("VideoHandler.killIt() called");
             stopIt();
             _stage.removeChild(video);
             nc.removeEventListener (NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS,checkConnect);
             ns.removeEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR, asyncErrorHandler);
             nc.close();
             video = null;
             ns = null;
             nc = null;
             flag_Running =false;

RemoveChild() but audio still plays

Hy!
I have a flash website where different pages are movieclips which are added or removed from the main stage, depending on which buttons are clicked.
The problem is that I have a 'video' page where a YouTube player is embedded. The video plays as soon as the movieclip loads, but when I remove the child from the stage and I add another movieclip on top of it, the audio still plays.
I have tried using the SounMixer.stopAll() but it works only when I test swf in Flash. When I open the swf separately from the folder it is in, it doesn't work anymore.
Can somebody please help me?
Thanks a lot!

It is not a FLVPlayback control, it is a YouTube ActionScript 3.0 Player API.
Here is the code :
// The player SWF file on www.youtube.com needs to communicate with your host
// SWF file. Your code must call Security.allowDomain() to allow this
// communication.
Security.allowDomain("www.youtube.com");
// This will hold the API player instance once it is initialized.
var player:Object;
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, onLoaderInit);
loader.load(new URLRequest("http://www.youtube.com/apiplayer?version=3")); //load the embedded player
play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, playVid);
pause_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, pauseVid);
video1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playVid1);
video2_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playVid2);
video3_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playVid3);
mute_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,muteVideo);
unmute_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,unmuteVideo);
function onLoaderInit(event:Event):void {
    addChild(loader);
    loader.content.addEventListener("onReady", onPlayerReady);
    loader.content.addEventListener("onError", onPlayerError);
    loader.content.addEventListener("onStateChange", onPlayerStateChange);
    loader.content.addEventListener("onPlaybackQualityChange", onVideoPlaybackQualityChange);
function onPlayerReady(event:Event):void {
    // Event.data contains the event parameter, which is the Player API ID
trace("player ready:", Object(event).data);
player = loader.content;
          player.loadVideoByUrl("http://www.youtube.com/v/v6oJ5rw9mys",0);
    // Set appropriate player dimensions an its position
player.setSize(480, 360);
          player.x=50;
          player.y=220;
          video_title.text="Multiplying Sevens-Times Table";
function onPlayerError(event:Event):void {
    // Event.data contains the event parameter, which is the error code
    trace("player error:", Object(event).data);
function onPlayerStateChange(event:Event):void {
    // Event.data contains the event parameter, which is the new player state
    trace("player state:", Object(event).data);
function onVideoPlaybackQualityChange(event:Event):void {
    // Event.data contains the event parameter, which is the new video quality
    trace("video quality:", Object(event).data);
I have taken this code from its YouTube ActionScript 3.0 Player API Reference

Deleted audio still plays - help

project in imovie hd. i have extracted the audio, lowered the audio in the video clip to 0%, and unchecked the audio box in the time line. most of the audio in the video clip is gone but about 2 seconds at the start and end of each video clip still plays. so you hear "and cut!" at the end!
fyi i m working on a slient film so i dont care if all the video sound is gone. the soundtrack is done.

most of the audio in the video clip is gone but about 2 seconds at the start and end of each video clip still play
Do you by any chance have transitions where this happens?
Extracting the audio from the clips before applying transitions prevents this.

HTML5 videos freeze after loaded, audio keeps playing

This started happening some months ago in my old laptop and it also occurs now in the new one. A lot of times, when I play an HTML5 video (not just in YouTube, it also happens in Streamcloud for example), after it's fully loaded and I start playing it, it will stop (on YouTube the "loading" animation appears), and the audio will keep playing. The only thing I can do is mute it and reload the page. Whenever it happens, it usually happens again after a while, and it's really frustrating to have to reload a few times after it's loaded to be able to watch a 1 hour video.
My laptop has two video cards, an Intel HD integrated one and a dedicated NVIDIA GeForce. It doesn't matter which one I use or if I turn hardware acceleration on or off, the issue persists.
What can I do?

Check that all of your software is up to date.
Also, post the web address where you are having problems.

Audio still plays after IE7 tab closed

Trying debug an issue we are having with OSMF when using a live stream in Internet Explorer in a tab. When the tab is closed, the audio will continue the play. I did a search and and found a post by someone who experienced a similar situation in IE6 with audio in general (http://forums.adobe.com/message/69675#69675) but no responses.
Anyone experienced this and could share any knowledge?
Cheers
/Kris

Ok I think I solved the issue. I was removing and nulling the media element before I was removing it from the video player. Once I switched those two, everything worked fine. Seems to make sense.

Pictures disappeared, titles and audio still play

Hello Forum,
I made a slideshow in iMovie 09 of pictures from my vacation and specially fitted songs and titles into it. When I had finished, I clicked on the Optimize Video (Large) choice in the File menu, thinking it would make my video better. When the optimization had finished, I tried to play the movie, but now instead of seeing the pictures, audio, and text put together, all I see is a black screen along with text and audio, and there is no option to undo optimization. This problem persists even in both full screen mode and after the project had been prepared to be exported into iDVD. The strange thing is that all of the pictures are still present in the project pane, but when I try to play the movie it just won't show them. I don't want to have to restart because I've put so much work into this. Could somebody help me solve this problem?
Thanks,
plato428

I called it "making a montage of my favorite movie clips." It is what it is. Just how I said it. I do stand up impressions part time and sometimes, believe it or not i get recorded, or I record myself and "make a montage of all my favorite movie clips" or scenes from a movie or anything for that matter. So as illegal as that is I apologize that you want to monitor that stuff.
So lets step out of our assumptive sheriff shoes and stop hazardly guessing at anything that you would disprove of. Everyone else has been very helpful. Besides, all these questions centralize around a basketball highlight video I am making for a coach, that I myself recorded and own the copyright to, to be specific and hopefully clarify your hunch.
As a video editor you also often receive footage with numerous formats depending on who you're working with. Not everything is an illegal transaction that you assume it to be. Thanks

CC pauses while audio still plays on

I'm seeing this behavior in CP6:
1) In 5.5 if you have a slide with narration, and CC and a pause object (button, clickbox), the playbar would pause at the set pause point, but the slide audio and CC would continue to play and display in a sync’d manner
2) In CP6, with the same setup, it appears the CC pauses with the regular timeline even as the audio continues to play.
Can anyone confirm this issue and/or know of any work arounds?
Jim Leichliter

Hi Jim,
I'm actually experiencing the same problem with CP6. I only used CP5.5 for a brief while, but don't recall ever having this issue. Audio continuing to play on pause in CP6 was brought to my attention by one of our trainers who was performing end-user testing for me. I'm still trying to figure out a work around, have you had any luck?
Thanks,
Kevin

Podcast Video Freezes - Audio Still Plays

When using the iPod function on my iPhone and watching a synced video podcasts, the video will show the first frame of the podcast and freeze but the audio will continue to play.
The iPhone doesn't freeze up at all other than the video portion of the podcast.
Has anyone else had problems with this? Is there a fix so the video will show also?

Doh, nm found the answer here:

HT2844 When I plug my LED cinema display into my macbook Pro, the video switches automatically but the audio still plays via the macbook speakers by default. Is there any way to make the audio default to the display audio when plugged in?

Hi,
Pretty much as the tital says really. I'm fed up of having to manually select my audio output every time I plug my macbook pro into me LED display. Can I make it default the audio to the display when plugged in?

yeah- I think so, AlexGrady. see if your machine supports hdmi audio out, it should say under "about this mac"
then buy the correct adapter to your LED display. I think you also have to enable audio out via HDMI, and the adapter has to support HDMI audio passthrough
sorry, that's all I have for now

oh, and this forum is for Mac Pro's (just sayin')

Flash player starts playing video but stops, audio still plays

When I watch videos on youtube the video and audio play fine for the first few seconds. Then all of a sudden the video stops playing, but the audio continues to play. I am using Firefox 3.0.10, Windows XP SP3, Intel Celeron Processor 434MHz, 256MB of Ram. This also happend with other browsers like Google Chrome, and Internet Explorer. What can I do to correct this issue? Thanks in advance.

First, disable Java. It's a security risk and has nothing to do with the problem.
If you're using Safari, from the menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.
If there's no change, from the Safari menu bar, select
Help ▹ Installed Plug-ins
Besides the following, what plugins are listed?
iPhotoPhotocast
Java
WebKit built-in PDF

You Tube Audio still plays when I close Firefox

This has happened at least 3 times this past week I had to reboot to get it to stop Im on Vista Home Basic using Firefox 3.6.12 I have had the same addons for a long time now so it can't be that anyone know what this is?
I've also experienced Server cannot be found on quite a few websites but upon refresh the page appears and it was not just on my machine I did this at a friends house on Firefox and I kept running to this problem 90% of the links I had refresh the page.
Thanks Lisa

It works sometimes, but not every time, though in ''' dome.ipc.plugins.enabled''' always '''False''' is on.
Sorry, this is no permanent solution.

Youtube audio keeps playing after I leave video page.

Video and audio play just fine but when I backtrack or close tab the audio still plays. If i reload the tab the audio will stop but i've never had this issue before. I have the most current firefox downloaded and have even deleted and re-downloaded the browser twice.

First you have two Flash Player installed
*Shockwave Flash 12.0 r0
*Shockwave Flash 11.5 r502
Try disable the hardware acceleration:
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.
