Anyone noticed Quicktime 7.4.5 causing out of sync issues for online vids?

Since 7.4.5 all Quicktime video clips I view online in Safari have audio out of sync with the video (by perhaps four frames). Anyone else seeing this?

I do not use Safari. However, I have no problems w/out of sync issues using the +latest versions+ of FF, Camino & Netscape.
Have you tried other browsers to rule out Safari as being the culprit rather than QT? Are you using the latest version of Safari?
What troubleshooting methods have you tried to resolve your issue? Need this info to avoid the +"been there done that"+ senareos.

  • A/V out-of-sync issue for FCP captures

    I've read many of the out-of-sync posts on this board, most of which seem to indicate that the problem is usually caused by either dropped frames, bad timecode breaks, edit errors, or disunity between FCP capture and sequence settings, compared with audio sample rates for the underlying files.
    My files, shot on my Panasonic AG-DVX100A in 24pa mode, result in perfect (except for the anamorphic screen size - see my next post!) Quicktime movie files, in perfect sync. It's only when I create clips from those files in FCP that the video and audio go out of sync. And the out-of-sync drifts; that is, the further you go in the clip, the more out of sync the sound and the video gets.
    My camera is always set to the 24pa mode, which, by default, records only in the non-drop-frame mode, regardless of any other camera settings I may have selected. The audio settings in my camera (and in the resulting underlying QT files that are created when I capture in FCP) are 16-bit integer and 48.000 khz, as they are in both my FCP sequence presets and capture presets, so I don't think it's an issue of conflicting sample rates. My device control presets are for Firewire NTSC NDF (non dropped frame).
    Given the above information, does anyone have any idea what else I might be doing wrong? I've already shot hundreds of hours of footage last year that worked fine. I don't know what I changed to cause this out-of-sync problem now, but I'm going bald tearing out my hair trying to figure it out.
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    The dvd recorder was in the loop when the sync issue showed up.  the dvd was in sync but the live stream, next in line, was out of sync.  I have returned to using the older machine with xp.  (the lap top is running vista)  The older machine is a desktop which requires more space on the production table and time to set up.

  • Quicktime Export causing Out of Sync Audio?

    I'm trying to export a self contained Quicktime movie from my timeline, and every time I try, the audio ends up being out of sync. What am I doing wrong?
    The audio is set to just the defaults, 16 bit, 48khz.
    Sequence settings: HDV1080p30
    When I bring the final exported movie back into FCP, it plays out of sync.
    Exporting through the Share feature to bluRay resulted in perfect sync audio, so I'm at a loss as to why this isn't working.
    Please help!

    Allright, since nobody out there seems to have the answer - I'm going to share what I discovered so that the next person will actually get an answer without having to spend hours and hours finding it in other forums. Here goes:
    Problem: Audio plays in sync on the timeline, an export from the timeline through Share to bluRay results in correctly synced audio; but a Quicktime Export with current settings results in a final movie where audio is out of sync with the video.
    Solutions: I found two solutions to this problem:
    1- When exporting to Quicktime Movie, check "recompress all frames". This solution had mixed reviews, with lots of people saying you should never do this, as it will reduce the quality of your final output; while others said the reduction in quality was not noticeable to the naked eye. I guess you can try it and be the judge.
    2- In your sequence settings, change the compression setting to Apple Pro Res. This is the setting I decided to go with, as I'm currently awaiting the 10 hour render.
    I did do a quick and dirty test on the ProRes option, where it appeared to work. Since the audio is correctly synced in the beginning of the video and then slowly falls out of sync (obviously the 30p to 29.97 problem), I had to run a test using my entire sequence. If you run a test on a 2 minute sequence, it will appear to be correct, because it is a slow falling out of sync issue - the problems occur later in your project (just fyi). Here is what I did (in case you want to try it on your project):
    I created a new sequence and then changed the compression setting from HDV1080-30p to Apple Pro Res 422. I dragged my sequences into this sequence (so they were nested). I unlinked the audio and then selected about a 20 second area from about 3/4 of the way through the project. I sliced this section and then removed all the video before and after (so it would speed up render time and only render black, but I would still be able to see if the audio synced up later - I hope that makes sense - this made my export time only 12 minutes). After it exported, I reimported the movie, found the little 20 second area, and it was correctly synced. So, now I am exporting the whole thing. I sincerely hope this works. I don't have lots of 10 hour blocks just lyin' around!
    Since my audio issue was most likely due to the fact that I captured and edited in 1080 30p, I believe it must be a bug in FCP that exports the Quicktime movie in 29.97 regardless of whatever your sequence settings are (believe me, I tried to change it to 1080-30p and it didn't work). That is why I think the Apple Pro Res option works, but it involves a total re-render of your project. This is also why I believe it plays fine in the timeline, because my timeline was set to 30p. Again, I also believe that is why my export to BluRay through Share resulted in correctly synced audio - the bluRay export I believe uses the Pro Res codec (which, by the way, took 19 hours).
    Wish Apple would fix this bug.

  • Non Drop frame capture causing out of sync clip?

    Hi, All,
    I've been having trouble with sync issues on an hour long tape capture.
    The material was captured from a Canon consumer DV cam (z80) using firewire into my powerbook g4. (The material on the dv tape was originally recorded in Video 8mm and transfered to the Canon via firewire from a modern Sony Digital 8 camera.)
    The sync on the DV tape looks fine when I play it back through the Canon camera. So I'm guessing that I might be losing sync because the camera is dropping frames that don't want to be dropped. I tried to change the video capture settings to non drop frame (in the device control tab of FCP5's audio video settings preference window,) but as soon as I start the capture from the canon, the settings on my log capture window automatically revert back to drop frame. (I don't know this for a fact, but I do notice that the ":" in the timecode box turns back to ";" every time I start the capture.
    Does this sound like it is, in fact, a drop frame problem? And if so, is there any hope of getting a canon consumer camcorder to capture at non drop frame rates?

    Well, after trying most of the suggestions here, I did find a reasonably hassle free workaround to capturing the hour and fifteen minute footage of 8 bit 32 kHz video to FCP with minimal sync slippage over the length of the footage.
    I finally gave up on capturing the material in FCP and instead hooked the canon z80 up to an old version of Toast Platinum 6 I had on my computer. Toast creates a raw quicktime movie file with the extension .dv. Toast then allows you to edit that quicktime file, add chapters, button pictures, etc. thereby making a new file to replace the raw QT it first created. After some experimentation, I discovered that the original raw QT file Toast creates can simply be dragged intact to the FCP browser window, where it becomes a clip with minimal sync problems. I would caution against trying to use the second improved QT file that Toast creates after you've edited your file, as this second QT movie seems less stable than the raw one it first creates.
    A final caveat for Toast users. Make sure you set the preferences so that they don't DELETE the original file it creates. There are settings that will tell Toast to do just that either After a Day, After a Week, When You Close the Program or Never. I'd set that to Never, since it can be highly unpleasant to discover that your program has deleted the very file you were planning to work with.
    Hope this is of some help.
    Thanks to all who pitched in and offered suggestions. Your help has been invaluable!
    I now mark this issue Solved. Or at least as Solved as I plan to get it!

  • Exported quicktime files have video & audio out of sync

    I am using FCP with a Sony HVR-Z1E. All seems ok in my edit etc but if I try to export my edit to a quicktime file using the quicktime conversion option the audio and video are out of sync on quicktime. If I export using quick time movie option, all is fine as this file is played back by FCP. I have tried different settings but I cant get the audio to be in sync with the video. My settings are HDV 1080i50 on my 15" Macbook Pro
    Thanks for any help
    Regards Alf

    You can open your "quicktime movie" (not qt conversion) in quicktime player. Simply control click on the file in the finder and choose open with... Try that and let us know if the file is in synch.

  • Processing in STP causes out-of-sync in FCP

    Mixing multitrack live band performances. After sending tracks to Soundtrack Pro for normalization, EQing, effecting etc. and round tripping back to FCP they now get out of sync with live performance video over the course of time.
    Doesn't happen if I use FCP audio filters directly on the clips in timeline - but FCP's effects are so much more crude and limited. Is there a way to make Emagic's plug-ins from Logic (now also used in Soundtrack Pro) available directly in FCP ??

    Having the same problem. A 4 minute song recorded from the deck during performance doesn't sync with the video footage after time. Anybody got any tips or this? Was working perfectly up until yesterday, no sync probs at all. I went in to do another mix and it's all gone pear-shaped.

  • Audio drifts out of sync encoding for DVD

    I am using Compressor 3.0.5.
    I have a DVCPRO HD file I'm trying to encode for a DVD.
    Even if I use the default settings in "DVD: Best Quality 120 minutes," the audio and video are completely off by the end by several frames.
    The source file was generated from FCP6.0.6, and that file doesn't have any drift issues. I have even successfully used Compressor to encode an H.264 file with no drift using the exact same file.
    Why then are the m2v and the ac3 files so off then? They are even different lengths by several frames.
    I've tried re-encoding the audio separately at 48K 24bit, (same as FCP settings) and that generated an ac3 that was 32 frames longer than the video, which was exported with the exact same in and out point.
    I've even tried breaking it up into 5 separate reels to encode each one individually and then join them in DVDSP, but then each of the 5 separate reels are each off as well, anywhere between 5 to 8 frames by the end.
    I spoke to Apple tech support, and they don't know why this is happening. Yet I see many people who have this experience and I can't find the solution. Please help!
    I read one post that mentioned it might be using a cluster and multiple cores, so I'll try using a single next, but if anyone has a solution please let me know.
    Thank you!

    I've had the same issue. It seems to only occur when outputting a 23.98 sequence to Compressor using the cluster.
    Another related question: Do the sync issues occur whether you use a reference Quicktime or self-contained?

  • Bizarre out of sync issue

    This question is mixed FCP and DVDSP, so it's O/T on both forums, but here goes:
    I have a 97 minute feature. Shot HDV. Edited ProRes. Exported via Compressor using MPEG 2 and Dolby. Using Mac Octo.
    On the resulting DVDs the 2 pop is in sync, then it loses sync by about 3 frames for about 10 minutes, comes gradually back into sync and then, about 10 minutes before the end, creeps out of sync by about 3 or 4 frames again.
    I have checked the original FCP timeline. Perfect sync all the way.
    I have checked the Exported ProRes file in FCP timeline. Fine.
    But when I pull it into DVDSP, it is out of sync when I look at it in the simulator and burns as described.
    I have tried compressing sound and picture separately, but it doesn't make any difference.
    Can anyone advise me?
    Wacky, huh?
    Harry.

    used to have a prob like this with older versions of compressor. The work around I used was to export the audio from fcp as an aiff then compress it to ac3 from the exported aiff. If compressor still gives you a wacky file use a another program to go to ac3, such as FFmpegX.

  • XMPSES file extension and Out of Sync issues

    I captured a VHS tape to an AVI. If I watch this file using Windows Media player, the audio and video are in sync. I then imported the AVI into PE11 and created a video project. I selected the MPEG option for Computer under Publish+Share. I did not change any settings. The preset is NTSC DVD Standard. When the project was complete, I now have two files
    FILENAME.MPG
    FILENAME.MPG.XMPSES
    Also, when I play the .MPG file using Windows Media player, the audio and video are out of sync. The audio is delayed by a couple seconds.
    I am using Windows 8.1
    Does anyone know why PE11 creates the two files? Is this related to the sync issues?
    thanks,

    uberjaeger
    That .xmpses is an informational file attributed to Adobe and described as a Premiere Elements DVD Marker File (has information about DVD marker project, chapters, titles and scenes). I can confirm its existance. I do not suspect that as the source of your out of sync audio in your Publish+Share/Computer/MPEG with NTSC DVD Standard export.
    How did you capture the VHS tape to AVI and what type of AVI did put on the Premiere Elements 11 Timeline....DV AVI? If DV AVI, was it type 1 or type 2?
    What were the properties of this import into Premiere Elements 11 - 720 x 480 4:3 @ 29.97 interlaced frames per second or something else? What did you use for Add Media?
    What was the project preset of this Premiere Elements 11 project? Did you set the project preset to NTSC DV Standard manually before the Add Media or did you let the program automatically set the project preset based on the first video drag to the project's Timeline? If the program took charge, what did it set? Please see Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Size, and Pixel Aspect Ratio (even if grayed out).
    If you take your Timeline directly to Publish+Share/Disc/DVD disc, does the DVD-VIDEO standard on DVD disc play back with out of sync audio?
    By the way, do you have the VLC Player and does your mpg play back with audio out of sync there?
    Let us start here and then decide what next.
    Thank you.

  • Out of sync audio for Blu-Ray

    Okay first
    Win 7 i7, 12 gigs of Ram, the right video cards....
    I have 2 sequences the first is an awards show 2:24 mins all edited with lower thirds and credits. Native 1920 x 1080 29.97 .MOV.  This I output from Premiere using H264 BluRay and down scaled to 720. It work fine in ENCORE CS6.
    The 2nd sequence is red carpet and green room interviews 1920x1080 29.97 .MOV files all edited with titles and lower thirds. When I output this the same as the 1st sequence, H264 BluRay and down scaled to 720 and then import the files as a time line into ENCORE CS6 the audio is out of sync. In fact it is about 1 sec faster than the video it starts off in sync and drifts.
    If I output this sequence at 1920x 1080 no down scaling to 720 then it is in sync but the whole project is then too large to fit on a single layer Blu-ray  disc this is why I have down scaled 720.
    I have re-output it 6 different ways and the only way I get sync is at 1080. It makes no sense to me because the 1st sequence down scaled with no sync problems at all.
    I even dropped the edited sequence into a new 720 sequence and scaled to frame size then output that and still the audio is out of sync.
    Let me say so there is no misunderstanding the audio is in sync on the premiere time line the problem only occurs when output to ether H264 Blu-ray or MPEG2 Blu-ray if I down scale to 720. If output to 1080 no sync problems.
    I don't know what to try now but go to a dual layer disc and I really hate to do that and waste 20 gigs of space.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Dennis

    If I output this sequence at 1920x 1080 no down scaling to 720 then it is in sync but the whole project is then too large to fit on a single layer Blu-ray  disc this is why I have down scaled 720.
    The only two factors which affect file size are bitrate and duration, specs like resolution and frame rate have no bearing.
    Try using 1080 with a lower bitrate.

  • Out of Sync issue

    Hi, I'm using Premiere Element 10.0 (Bullseye) and am downloading video for my wife from a Sony HVR-Z5E HDV 1080i camera via Fire wire in mpeg2 format, Audio at 48k etc.  When I watch the footage captured back, the sound track is out of sync...!!  I've been through the preferences and set everything as standard for HDV, PAL 1080i etc. but no joy.....What am I doing wrong?
    I have spoken with video editors (who use other tools) and no-one understands the issue?
    Pointers / thoughts welcomed.
    Regards
    Steve

    Steve
    Let us do a recap
    Premiere Elements 10 Windows
    You set the project preset for
    PAL
    HDV
    HDV 1080i25
    When the workspace opens, you use Get Media/HDV Camcorder and the Capture Window opens. Do you see this Capture Window
    I ask about this since you said
    I can't find he check boxes you mention on the preferences or projects settings menu's...am i missing something?  I have "report dropped fames" and "use device control timecode" on the capture options in preferences.
    If you have a red line over the Timeline content without edits, after you press the Enter key, does the red line turn green?
    Did you try this yet
    For troubleshooting purposes, can you do the HDV data capture firewire into HDV Split to get .m2t split clips that you import into Premiere Elements 10 (Get Media/Files and Folders) and end up with these clips playing back in Premiere Elements 10 with in sync audio?

  • DMP-4310G Multicast video out of sync issues

    Hi!
    Currently I have following problem with DMS:
    I have couple of DMPs connected to the same L2 switch with the identical configuration (same startup url, same buffers config etc.) and a multicast streaming server which streams (by UDP multicast) some live video to the DMPs.
    Video codec is h264 (1920p,high [email protected], bw 6000kbps,29,97fps).
    The problem is that after some time (6-15 hours) the video on the screens become out of sync (i.e. screens show the same video but with some delay (1 to 5 sec) between the same frames on 2 different screens for example).
    DMM and DMPs - 5.2.2.
    Can you advise me on that problem?

    Hi again
    I actually think my problems is very much similar to this one:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2598909#2598909
    Could it be related to H.264 and mainconecpt not doing things right?
    When I try export the excact same project using Windows Media HDTV 720 - jsut setting the FPS to 50 instead of 25 it comes out nice. Looks a bit more blured to me, but might just adjust some parameters to get it right?
    So i guess this issues with some periodic and ad hoc sync-issues is related to the H.264 mainconcept codec? Is there any other and better codecs for H.264 and how do one get them installed to use them inside PPro CS4?

  • Dynex WBRDVD1 audio out-of-sync issues

    I'm running the Dynex WBRDVD1 via HDMI to my TV.   I'm running a separate SPDIF coax to my Yamaha receiver.   I'm getting a large audio-sync delay on Netflix and Youtube especially.   I have all post processing disabled (Direct on the receiver)    I dont have the sync issue when using HDMI audio on the TV.
    I've adjusted the modes PCM vs Uncompressed and sample rates with no luck.   I imagine there is some sort of delay since HDMI is direct video to the TV-- then digital conversion via the SPDIF to the receiver... then converts it back...etc   
    Anybody else had this problem?   I read that some TV's have the ability to adjust the video delay when this happens..  I just have a Mitsubishi WD65C9 which is a DLP from a few years ago.  So I dont have such an option.

    Does your tv have an optical audio output?  Hook both audio and video to your tv, then run the optical cable out of your tv to your receiver.  the problem is that the tv takes longer to decode the hdmi video that you receiver does the audio, so then they don't sync up.

  • Result Set Causing out of memory issue

    Hi,
    I am having trouble to fix the memory issue caused by result set.I am using jdk 1.5 and sql server 2000 as the backend. When I try to execute a statement the result set returns minimum of 400,000 records and I have to go through each and every record one by one and put some business logic and update the rows and after updating around 1000 rows my application is going out of memory. Here is the original code:
    Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
    ResultSet   rs = st.executeQuery("Select * from  database tablename where field= 'done'");
                while(rs!=null && rs.next()){
                System.out.println("doing some logic here");

    st.close();
    I am planning to fix the code in this way:
    Statement stmt = con.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_FORWARD_ONLY,

    stmt.setFetchSize(50);

  • Anyone notice music playing pauses on IPhone during music sync from the cloud?

    I downloaded a album from my Macbook Pro to test the new music auto sync feature on my IPhone.  While I was downloading the album on my MBP I started playing the first song that was synced to my IPhone.  I noticed that after every song that was synced to my IPhone the music playing would pause for a 1/2 second then continue.  I tested this out with WIFI and on 3G and got the same results.  I found it a bit annoying and I don't think this is "feature" to let me know a song has been synced onto my IPhone.  Now I do understand this feature is in BETA so I hope it gets fixed when its finally released.

    I have had this exact same thing happen to me. It is really annoying to have those pauses. Some songs have multiple pauses. I hope this is resolved when the final product is released.
