Audio and sound not matching when importing

Hello - I've been importing footage from a miniDV from my Panasonic - the footage contains about 10 dance numbers. I had no problems, until I noticed that one of the dance numbers was a little 'off' in Final Cut. I checked the footage again, viewing it on the camera, and it was fine, so I imported again, and the dancing and the music was off even more, yet the video and audio tracks were lined up.
So then I tried importing into iMovie, and that worked just fine! So I had to make a full quality DV from that, and then re-import into FCP. How is it that it's fine on the the camera, but then goes 'off sync' when being imported into FCP, even though all of the other imported dances were fine? Any ideas/suggestions would be most helpful, thank you.

When you say off do you mean out of sync?
There's really a thousand things it could be and nearly impossible to tell with just a post. What version of FCP? What computer? What OS? What kind of drives are you using? What are you settings? How are you viewing? What capture settings did you use?
See lots of stuff. With DV, if it's out of sync changes are you have some kind of hardware issue going on as it doesn't take much computer power to edit DV.

  • Audio and video not synchronized when exporting from Premiere Pro CS6

    Hi
    We have made a project in Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 that´s intended to be exported to DVD (it´s a weeding). We are working with NTSC DV Widescreen. The exporting is 720x480
    We have 2 audio lines activated and sounding on this project.
    The question is:
    When exporting the entire video (the entire timeline sequece) using Adobe Media Encoder to formats like H.264 (NTSC DV Widescreen)... Quick Tile Movie or AVI without compression (we tested these formats) the 2 audio channels get unsynchronized from the video. The same problem occurs if we get a direct link of the timeline from Premiere to Encore.
    And Inside Premiere Preview audio is preety correct.
    Does anyone here are getting such problem?
    Also..can I ask another question (as I´m not expert on video production)?. What´s the best format for our purpose? Export a video to be played to DVD (we record weedings, birthdays..social events). No problem the time to export. We´d like the best quality for output.
    Thank you for the help

    Hi John and techkid123
    We have 4 cameras here. 1 is Sony model HD1000 (since it works with Mini-DV cassete we need to capture the image via Firewire). 2 cameras are Sony HD2000 (it generates *.MPEG files if I remember well). And 1 camera is a Panasonic AG-DVC7 (it generates *.MTS files)
    We start a new project using the Standard NTSC Widescreen 48Khz format.  When we drag to the timeline for example the MTS file...Premiere ask us if we want to Keep and Change timeline to suit the file specification. Anyway we always have 1 or 2 camera files that has a yellow line over timeline.
    But I renders correct...no problem to edit...and we had no problem with Premiere CS5.5 :/
    We are downloading the latest update of Premiere. I´ll make some test and publish here if the problem persist.
    Thank you a lot for the help

  • Audio and Video not matching up after compression

    I made a video that is 3:18 minutes long and after about 2 minutes, the audio and video don't match up anymore. I have 2 clips in the video that i conformed to 24p in Cinema Tools and i think that they are causing this problem. I noticed that Audio rate of the clips that i conformed, does not match up to the clips which are not. For example, the audio rate of my 59.94 fps clips is 48.0 KHz, and the audio rate of my 24 fps clips is, 19219 KHz. Is there any solution to this problem? I read a post that said i would need to re-digitize the clips, but i don't know how to do this. Can anyone help me?

    I still can't figure out how to solve this problem. I tried to resample the audio, but still, same things happening. If you watch the video, the audio goes off about 2 minutes into it. The audio is correctly matched up with the video when i view it in FCP, but every time i compress it, audio goes off in the exact some spot. Here is a link to the video- http://vimeo.com/21619542

  • Audio and Video not matching up

    I have a video someone brought me to fix. Their problem is they have video at 48 kHz and audio at 44.1 kHz. What can I do to match the audio to the mouth supposedly making the sound? When I get it matched up in one place, the audio gets progressively farther off as you go along in the video.
    Thanks for the help,
    Eric

    Their problem is they have video at 48 kHz and audio at 44.1 kHz<<</div>
    Ummm No. Video isn't measured in audio sampling rates. You probably captured video with the preset for DV NTSC 48khz (the 48khz is the audio portion). But your audio was either recorded incorrectly or from another source (CD audio perhaps?).
    Use QT Pro to export the 44.1khz audio to 48 khz and import into your project - OR - use SoundTrack Pro to resample at 48khz.

  • Audio and Video not synched on import

    I am trying to import a video shot on a Canon XH-A1 in HDV. WHen I import it into IMovie in HDV it previews at 1/2-real time and the audio is off by 2-4 seconds. When I import it in DV it imports correctly with the sound being synched however I lose the definintion of HDV.... Can anyone help me, is this a Canon issue or an IMovie issue???? Thanks in advance..

    Welcome to discussions, Prescottphotog
    Have you tried importing the HDV to imovie, then saving, closing and relaunching imovie? It may be that the audio will be in sync once iMovie has had time to cache it properly.
    That's a lot of information for it to take in.

  • Audio Tracks are not linked when imported

    I know I recorded in stereo so I don't understand why the audio pair I imported are not linked(2 mono tracks) in the timeline. Anyone know how to fix this?
    Adam

    There is no panning in stereo pairs. That's the way it works. You can't have separately panned tracks and still have them be stereo pairs. FCP works the same in this regard. If you captured in FCP as a stereo pair, the panning would be as you see it in FCE.

    Hey Hype.Beast.187,
    Here are some troubleshooting steps for not being able to hear sound through your iPhone speakers. I'd pay special attention to steps 8, 9, and 10 in your situation:
    Resolution
    Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
    Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
    While on the Home screen, adjust the volume buttons. If you see the icon below, indicating that headphones are attached, there may be debris or an object lodged in the headset jack:
    Check the headset jack. If there is an object lodged in the headset jack that is not easily removed, have the iPhone serviced to remove object.
    For Original iPhone: If there is light debris, such as lint, in the headset jack, try connecting a pair of headphones to the headset jack and then remove the headphones. Repeat this several times to remove the debris.
    If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
    Check the receiver mesh (which is on the top front of the device, above the display). If it appears blocked, use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (choose Settings > General > Bluetooth).
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
    If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
    iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers

  • VOD Sound drop at commercials and does not return when TV show resumes

    i've noticed that there are other customers experiencing this problem and I have not seen any response from COmast support.When playing a TV-Show from On-Demand, the sound drops when a commerical starts and does not return when the TV Show resumes.A reenct example: Walking Dead 515.Yes, I have called comcast support to report it.Of course they wanted me to go through the standard drill - Power Off/On; Refresh Signal; etc. with no result...The  problem occurs on series, e.g. - Walking Dead 515; Grey's Anatomy;  It happens after the episode has been in the On Demand listing for about a week.It seems that the sponsors are no longer paying for the commercial, so the sound drops when the commercial comes on.However, the sound does not come back when the commercials end and the show comes back on.Stopping playback and starting at that point returns the sound, but, - oftentimes, the counter doesn't advance correctly in the Recently Viewed listing, so you end up starting back to the last time you stopped it. This is clearly a bug on the back-end, and I don't expect it to be fixed until enough people complain and Comcast Support replicates the problem observes it for themselves.

    I have this EXACT problem on Anthony Bourdain's show Parts Unknown and the Last Ship.  As soon as it hits the advertizement sound drops and continues as dropped.  Pausing and restarting the program completely after exit regains sound but as soon as it hits another commercial it goes out again.  The counter problem makes this option only good for a few times.  Then it resets back.

  • Sound not matching movies

    sounds not matching movies

    I've not noticed the problem but then I generally do not watch that channel.
    You didnt say.. do you have a DVR or a non-DVR
    If you have a DVR, there has been a thing I have noticed occasionally.  The DVR's buffer the signal. (we all know this) and if you listen to the same channel on a DVR and a non-dvr. the DVR will be about a second or two behind the non-dvr. makes for some interesting echo effects when multiple boxes are watching the same channel.
    Well I've noticed that sometimes on my DVR, it acts like the picture/sound are trying to keep up with the other tv's. The impression I get is like a dog pulling on the leash trying to go faster than the leash will allow.
    I've found that if I pause the pic on the DVR for about 10 seconds, and run using the fully buffered signal when ever I see that the sound and pic not match, it solves the problem. Doesnt happen often but I do it without even thinking now... Hope it helps someone

    Hundreds of my iPhoto pictures will not be copied and will not show when I double-click on them.  When I do in iPhoto an exclamation surrounded by a triangle appears.  Though I can see the picture in the small tiles below it will not expand.  I also cannot attach any of these pics into an e-mail or into any other file.  I have already went through all 3 Repair options and when that did not solve it went through a complete Rebuild.  Any Help?!  Any Suggestions on how to fix this?!  I have spent almost 2 days now going through all of the published help.
    I have backups going back 6 months - I have not had the real need to check every album before - but - all of my backups also have this same problem.

    The triangle with the ! indicates that the connection between the thumbnail and the orginal is missing - this can be caused by many things including database corruption and user action emoving the originals photos on urpose or by accident
    If the database is corrupted then rebuilding is the solution - backup and depress the option and command keys, launch iPhoto and rebuild your database  --  if the iPhoto rebuild does not cure the problem then download iPhoto Library manager and use its rebuild command which creates a totally new library leaving the existing one untouched
    If you have deleted the photos then you need to start over with a new library and import the photos you have not deleted into it
    You can select one of the problem photos and use the reveal original in finder commander (file menu) to see if the original is there - if it is a finder window will open showing it
