Audio and video don't open together in viewer when double clicked

Hello everyone!
I'm having an annoying problem... it isn't something terribly important, but has decreased my work flow speed. Recently, I've had some trouble opening clips from the timeline in the viewer with the double click.
If I double click the video portion of the clip, even if both the video and two audio tracks are highlighted (and are still linked) only the video portion of the clip will appear (along with "filters" and "motion" tabs) in the viewer, and similarly when double clicking the audio tracks, though both video and audio are highlighted, only the audio tracks and "Filters" tab show up in the viewer. Additionally, once the item is double clicked at the left with the jigsaw pieces that can be used to set video and audio destinations, if I've clicked on an audio portion so only audio shows up in the viewer, only the jigsaw pieces for the two audio tracks (a1, a2) are visible, video track (v1) is no longer present, and vice versa.
I'd appreciate any advice that you all have! It's really driving me batty, in addition to not knowing what I did to make it that way, I can't figure out how to change it back!
Heather

Thanks for the advice.
The clips already appeared to be linked, and the selection "link" was checked, however when I unlinked and then relinked I found that the audio and video would open up at the same time in the viewer... problem apparently solved! However, the clips I had been working with I had to nudge audio and video a few frames apart (out of sync) to get the audio and video to line up. (gives the little red box with a +or- number in it on the clip).
When I unlinked and then relinked, the clip lost those red boxes and went back to being synced (as far as FCP is concerned) with the audio and video unaligned.
So, the problem appears to be coming from when I move the audio and video of a clip out of sync... why is this? Is this something I'm just going to have to deal with?
Thanks
H

  • Does 2 firewire audio and video interface can work together  on FCP ?

    hello,
    My audio interface is a TC Electronic Konnekt 24D
    my video interface is a Canopus ADVC 110
    my hard drives are plugged in firewire too
    and I use Final Cut Pro 5.0.4
    So, the konnekt is recognized by FCP only when the Canopus is not plugged. And even then, the audio sometimes drop out and sometimes causes the app to crash, so that I have to trash the preferences
    When I plug the Canopus, the Konnekt 24D is recognised by OS X but not FCP
    I want to use the voice over tool with the konnekt 24D, so what should I do ?
    Does 2 firewire audio and video interface can work together ?
    If so, maybe I only have a driver problem from TC Electronic.
    But if not, I have to change this interface. Let me know if only RME, MOTU, Presonus and Edirol work, as it is said on apple's webpage for hardware compatibility
    thanks

    The 1082 does show up as a possible input when I open
    the VO tool.
    Ok. So an audio interface can be plugged to FCP without crashing the app. Because of the Konnekt driver problem, I wasn't shure of this.
    I use my Aja box for export & external monitoring.
    All my audio sources run back into the Tascam and I
    use the analog mixer in the 1082 to monitor different
    sources.
    When I view external video, the audio follows it to
    keep sync.
    that's exactly what I want with other I/O interfaces. I'd like to monitor video with the canopus ADVC 110, and monitor audio with the Konnekt 24D (or another interface if this one is not compatible)
    I also imput dailies with a deck or a camera (DV or HDV) but that's not the point here.
    I want to imput audio with the Konnekt 24D because of its audio quality. Not audio sync to video dailies. But voice over, in sync with FCP video playback (for me, tha ADVC 110)

    When I import video clips from other sources, such as my webcam, a downloaded youtube video, or video imported from my phone, the video lags behind the audio. More and more as the video plays on. My computer meets all the system requirements and I tried rendering the video. When I export the video to other formats, it still has a lag. Can anyone help me?

  • Audio and Video Don't Match - HELP

    So I have imported some footage from my iPod Nano into iMovie.  I drag it ALL into the box above to edit, then play a bit to make sure it's viewing fine.  The first minute or two is fine, but then the audio and visual part start to not match up.  I know I can seperate the audio from it, but then I am unable to make all the jumpcuts, cutting out audio as well.
    Hoping someone can help me as soon as possible.  This is a vlog for my YouTube channel.  Thank you!

    This happened to me when my original is recorded with broken timecode.
    Try to rerecord the video firewire to firewire to another recorder and record it to your FCP.

  • How to open each CS version file in its proper version program when double-clicked?

    Hello everyone,
    This one is about the coexistence of Indesign CS4 and CS5.
    In my company: I'm working with Indesign CS4, but a colleague is testing CS5 in real day-to-day works, and everyday I come across CS5 files that I need to correct, so I have CS5 installed too. Now, when I boot in the morning, and no Indesign program is open yet, whenever I double-click on an Indesign file, the system will open it with CS5, no matter if the file is CS4 or CS5. I find this quite annoying, of course. I want each version file to get open right away in the proper version of the program. I'd think this is happening to a lot of people, but I've been looking for the issue in the forums and haven't found anything.
    Of course I'm using roundabouts like having my colleague write "_CS5" at the end of each file, put CS4 in my startup items (so that once the program is open, the issue works the other way around and any Indesign file opens just in CS4 when double-clicked…).
    Also, all the Indesign files appear on the desktop as CS5 files
    I would welcome any ideas on the subject, thanks!

    Muchas gracias! really useful. I'm gonna try it.

  • Logic 9 Audio and Video sync at beginning timecode, but not in the middle of playback.

    Hey Guys,
    I'm working on a Trailer for a feature length, and my video playback is pretty screwy.
    I've double checked the video to be 23.976 framrat and set my project to that framrate, and I've done what I normally do with bitrate and sample rate. But currently my audio and video will not sync together when I start playback in the middle of my project.
    Playback works fine in the start of the project, and everything looks and sounds great. But as I'm writing and edtiting further on in the project all the audio gets out of sync. If I start the project from the beginning, then all of the MIDI for the whole piece registers as synced, and the project sounds and looks great the whole way through. The problem comes from starting playback anywhere in the middle of the project.
    I'm working with a .mov file (1:45 minutes); three .AAC audio files, and plenty of thrid-party plug-ins. 10.7.5 Mac OS X, 2.2 GHz i7 core, and 4GB m
    of memory.
    Any thoughts?
    Thank you!

    Thanks guys for the input.
    I am using an Aurora 16 via firewire
    I did change my buffer settings and that seemed to fix it but now I am at 128. I moved over to the aurora because I preferred the extra headroom. I guess I should have stuck with the apogee.
    Tonight was the first time I had the opportunity to do a full tracking session with 9. I have been doing quiet a bit of mastering with no issues. Quiet a few issues. Everything from logic quitting to it just locking up. So far.....a pretty bad experience. I wonder if it could be Snow Leopard.......

  • 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

  • Ichat audio and video problem

    my ichat audio and video don't work with any of my friends, no problems with a text chat, i'm using tiger and they all have leopard, all macs are up to date, i've tried messing around with the ports, firewall is off, internet sharing is off, i know a lot of people are having this problem, are there any answers to this that actually work, i'd appreciate any help

    Hi Ben
    Welcome to the  Discussion Pages
    Presumably you mean this Linksys is set to Not Block Pings on the WAN port (Or whatever phrase your device has) ?
    I also presume that you have done the Quicktime Setting that Steve mentions above ?
    I presume the Linksys is the modem as well and it is doing UPnP ?
    At this stage I have two suggestions.
    1)
    Shut down the computer and remove the Ethernet cable (modem or computer end does not matter) (Make sure it will not connect Wirelessly when restarted before hand)
    Restart the computer
    Restart iChat.
    Reconnect the Internet
    Log iChat in.
    2) Try a reinstall of the COMBO version of the 10.5.2 update
    Both of these suggestions have been used in previous iChat's when other things have not worked and the set up appears OK on the surface.
    Also try
    3) Rebooting the router and a Modem if separate.
    4) In System Preferences > Network > Connection method > Advanced Button > DNS tab add the DNS servers of your ISP
    DO them one at a time so you know which one works.

  • How to synchronize multiple, unorganized audio- and video clips

    I'm editing a video with audio recorded by an external recorder.
    I've been given a lot of unorganized files and I wonder if there's a quick way to synchronize them all without knowing which audio- and video file that fit together.

    I've been pretty amazed by how well the synchronize clips command works. You might take a chance and select all of your audio/video files at once, right click and choose Synchronize Clips.

  • Does QT Pro for Mac allow webcast recording of Audio and Video?

    While watching a webcast, say from NY Times, I'd like to record both audio and video via QT Pro (for later viewing). Before I spend $$ to upgrade to QT Pro, can this be done?

    If the file being viewed is loaded via the QuickTime browser plug-in (part of the html page code) then the file can be saved (after it has ben downloaded). If the file isn't loaded by the QuickTime browser plug-in then it can't be saved (locally via the Pro upgrade).
    QuickTime Player Pro can't "record" the screen (QuickTime X can, but only at the screen resolution).
    Look in the Help menu of QuickTime X to learn more about the options.

  • After Effects CS6 renders audio and video separately. Please help!

    Trying to render a finished video so that I can upload it to Youtube, but having extreme rendering difficulties. The only way my audio and video are combined in one file is when I export the project as a lossless AVI. Best quality for sure, but the size is MUCH too massive. Any other format I try always separates the audio and video. I have no idea why. Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
