Audio capture recording .mov - .m4a

I accidentally saved an audio capture recording with QT without switching it to save as audio. It's now a .mov (saved as movie) instead of .m4a. How do I convert from the .mov to .m4a? Also, is there any way to make it save as audio (.m4a) by default?

Ah, yes, that works! Thank you.
A follow-up question: When audio capture is stopped, how can the client program find out when all the audio data has been written to a file on the server. The client needs to know this to perform subsequent operations on the audio file.

Cannot record audio whilst recording movie

I could previously record audio at the same time as capturing
screens. However, this does not work now. When I create a new
movie, I have the Record Narration checkbox checked, and in the
Options I have the Record Narration checked. When I click Record, I
get the sound calibration and that works fine, yet when I review
the movie there is no narration nor is there a speaker icon at the
bottom of the slide. I know that it is not my microphone as I can
add audio to the slide aferwards, but as I find narration 'after
the fact' as it were harder to get all the timings correct.
I have reinstalled Captivate to see whether this made any
difference, but I am still having the same problem.
Can anyone help?

I am using Version 1 not Version 2

Audio capture (recording) from sound card doesn't work

I have a Asus Xonar DS sound card that uses CMI8788 chip, AV200 kernel driver and snd-virtuoso kernel module. The card is recognised on installation (i686) and there are no issues with the sound output.
This is a new installation to try to fix the (lack of) recording problem. I know the card can be used to capture sound being played from a web browser, Youtube and internet radio, as I previously had it working with audacity, gnome-recorder and mhwaveedit, but some months ago, after an upgrade it stopped working.
Alsamixer shows the card as AV200 and I have toggled all the capture options and raised levels to no avail.
The card is not broken as the capture works fine on Kubuntu and even Win7. I have tried pasting asound.state from Kubuntu but there was no diference.
Does anybody know a good troubleshooting guide that deals with the capture side, not output.

"volume: can't open /dev/mixer " is for the users who use OSS so there; you should find out what uses OSS and change it if it is possible and not solely on oss.
and the error I am having is because I defined the specific software to hwd:0,0. so what i should do is to check my softwares and set the audio output to "default"
So in another word use you sound card and in output option of your sound card choose "default over hwd:0,0"

No audio when recording movie with iPhone 4

No audio when recording a movie on iMovie?

I recorded a movie of myself as an intended blog video for YouTube but there is no audio when I play it back.
I have checked System Preferences to ensure built-in microphone settings are good and they are.
I have a 2011 Macbook Pro with up-to-date software.
I found my similar posts online to mine but no answers.
Operating System 10.7.5
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi
This is a bit unclear to me.
No audio when recording
No Video-editing program I know off play any feedback (at standard settings) while recording. FinalCut is even worse that it doesn't play the sound while importing from Camera either (one need to connect speakers to the Camera-audio-out to get this)
So first - I'm not sure if You can get audio out while recording in iMovie at all.
BUT
If there is no sound - When Your captured video is played back - then the problem is more severe and I would start with.
• Trashing iMovie pref and cache files
and see if that helps.
Please - be more descriptive - so that one can do the same actions to see if Your problem is Yours only or if it is the same on more Macs.

I've tried 2 different screen capture devices, and in both cases, audio stops recording after 20 or 30 seconds, but video is fine. The audio disappears

I've tried 2 different screen capture devices, and in both cases, audio stops recording after 20 or 30 seconds, but video is fine. The audio disappears with both programs. Does anyone know what is happening with my audio capture?

Update, I took the webcam home over the weekend and tried on my home network and the outcome was the same video fine - audio delayed, is this a Skype for desktop issue?

Lost audio capture 'what you hear' from conexant

I have an HP Pavilion DV2278ea laptop running Vista 32bit and have all OS updates apart from those announced in the last few weeks. I recently upgraded the software for the Conexant High Definition onboard sound card to the latest August 08 version 4.36.7.60 C. All seemed fine until I came to do an audio capture from an internet stream using Roxio. The only capture device listed was the microphone - there used to be one that said Conexant Audio 'What you Hear' to capture anything heard through the speakers. On checking Sounds in Control Panel the only recording device is the microphone. Sound works okay from both the internal and external speakers. I've tried rolling back the drivers but its still the same. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Ok this has driven me mad for the last few days but I found the solution:
Windows Vista Recording Input Source selections for recording streaming audio, sound from media players or just about anything you can hear coming through your speakers are Hidden from view and Disabled by Default. (I'm sorry - but why!!?! )
If your sound card/system supports recording streaming audio Input Source selections such as: Stereo Mix, What U Hear, Wave Out Mix, Wave or a similar selection, here's what you need to do to Enable it for recording:
Right-Click on your Speaker Icon in your System Tray, (near your clock), select "Recording Devices".
In the Sound window that opens, near the top, select the "Recording" TAB.
Move your cursor down to where devices are shown.
Right-Click in the blank white area and select "Show Disabled Devices".
If supported, new selections will appear such as: Stereo Mix, What U Hear, etc. Right-Click on "Stereo Mix", "What U Hear" or similar and select "Enable".
Right-Click on the same item again and select "Set as Default Device". Click OK.
Now in the recorder's Options in the "Input Source" box, you should have the "Stereo Mix", "What U Hear" or similar source available to select for recording streaming, etc.
(You can also Enable other hidden selections like Microphone, Line In, etc. if they are not already shown).

Multitrack Audio Capture question ...Not DV related :)

I am wanting to use FCP 5 to capture multitrack audio from a firewire interface such as the MOTU 828mkII while capturing video from my Kona LS at the same time.
the FCP 5 page says, "Multichannel audio lets you capture and output up to 24 channels of high-resolution 24-bit, 96kHz audio in a single pass."
I'm not sure if that means that you can capture up to 24 channels while you are capturing video or if the multitrack audio capture requires timecode syncing and capturing audio and video separately. The reason I'm trying to do this is that I want to capture the video and multi track audio live rather than recording to a deck with timecode and syncing it up later. I know this isn't the typical way to do it and that FCP capture is a less reliable way to record than a VTR. I'm aware of my Kona card's multiple audio channels, but I am specifically interested in a multi track audio interface (such as MOTU 828mkII).
I've searched the forums and internet for weeks and I can't find anyone who has suggested that this work. Will a 828mkII just show up as another audio capture device in FCP that will record more than 2 channels during video/audio capture?
Thanks!

Hi gevus, I know this is somewhat late and if you haven't already found another solution then I would suggest that you purchase a pci sound card e.g. Soundblaster Live can be had for as little as $35.00 from Newegg.com (a very reliable online store with free shipping most of the time). I capture video with my 9600 aiw pro and use a sb live...my mb also came with an onboard sound processor (nforce2) however, I still prefere the flexability of the Live card...plus dispite reviews on this nforce2 onboard sound as being as good as Live I disagree I listen to (and watch) alot of movies on my computer and have a pair of BOSE headphones. I cound definetely notice a difference in sound quality. I dont know your video needs but the Audigy card by Creative Labs is even better if you need or want real good quality reproduction however, remember that the audio sorce is the real key to good sound.

Media Encoder not finding "audio capture device"

Hi,
Im using Adobe Flash Media Encoder with Dxtory for Twitch streaming, and at first it worked fine. Recorded both my mic and game audio perfectly. Then seemingly suddenly, I fired it up and it wouldn't stream the game audio. It would my Mic, but thats it. I then unplugged the mic and it started saying I had no Audio Capture Device. I checked in Dxtory and its set up the same as it was when it was working. It picks up both the mic and speakers like it should. I have uninstalled this program multiple times, both 3.1 and 3.2 versions, and each time when I re-download it, it loads up the same profile I had before. So when I am uninstalling it, its not uninstalling everything for some reason. Even though the program is no where to be found after its uninstalled. I have downloaded xsplit, and it picks up the game audio and my mic. So its just this program. Anyone have any ideas? I cant seem to find anything online about this issue.
Thanks!

From where? PP sequence? PP bin? PP Source Monitor? Watch folder?

Audio Capture only happens if its more than 5 seconds

Hello,
I'm writing a midlet that does audio capture on the LG CU500 phone. When I capture for 5 seconds or more, audio capture works as intended, however if I only record for under 5 seconds, it doesn't work. There is no timer. Would could be causing the problem?
Thanks
aztec30

Here is a snippet of the code that i'm using. When playing back, if I record say 10 seconds, I only hear about 7 seconds of the recording. About 3 seconds are cut off at the end. If I record for say less than 4 seconds, nothing seems to be recorded, nothing plays back.
To record I do the following
try {
if(player != null)
player.stop();
if(ctrl != null)
ctrl.commit();
player.deallocate();
player.close();
ThreadSleep(500);
if (player==null) {
player = Manager.createPlayer("capture://audio?encoding=audio/amr");
player.realize();
player.prefetch();
player.addPlayerListener(playerListener);
is = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ctrl = (RecordControl)player.getControl("RecordControl");
ctrl.setRecordStream(is);
ctrl.startRecord();
player.start();
} catch (Throwable e) {
Once recording is stopped I do this
try {
player.stop();
ctrl.commit();
player.deallocate();
player.close();
Thread.sleep(500);
if (is !=null) {
playback= Manager.createPlayer(new ByteArrayInputStream(is.toByteArray()),
"audio/amr");
playback.addPlayerListener(playerListener);
playback.start();
} catch (Throwable e) {

"Audio Capture Device not selected" message? Help please!

Howdy folks,
I just got a new PC, Windows 7 OS, I've installed ManyCam and version 3.2 of FME and am looking to broadcast again. I don't recall this issue with my old PC (XP OS, Broadcaster StudioPro virtual cam and FME 2.5). I updated to 3.2 as suggested/recommended in previous posts, but I am getting a message telling me to "please select audio capture devise connected to your system." What am I doing wrong or might there be something that I need to download that I missed?
Any help you can give is greatly appreciated. I truly loved using FME 2.5 but am doing like you suggest here.
Peace,

Hello -
My problem was fixed by setting a recording devise in my "sound" menu.
What I did was -
1. Open the sound menu from the control panel.
2. clicked on the recording tab.
3. Chose "Stereo Mix - Realtek High Definition Audio" as my default device.
That solved it. It was almost too simple. Hope this helps you!

Audio Capture not available / grayed out

I have a Samsung SC-D263 connected and when I try to capture video in FCE there is no audio. When looking in the settings, the check box for audio capture is grayed out... any ideas?
I managed to find drivers for the camera, but i don't know how to install them...

What audio checkbox are you talking about?
Do you see the video in the capture window? Do the meters move?

No audio output during movie import

I'm just getting started with building my first movie using HD6 and I can't hear any audio from the movie that I'm capturing. Playing the captured movie back has audio though. What settings do I have wrong? I want to be able to hear the audio track as I'm capturing from my DVcam.

I've got the exact same problem: no audio when importing a movie clip from camera (Canon Elura 65). It plays back just fine once imported, but you can't hear anything when playing through iMovie and while importing.
Is this a HD6 and Mactel problem?

Configuring Audio Capture

I am trying to sample the microphone using a recordStream. How do I control the rate, bits, unsigned, etc...
If I use:
p = Manager.createPlayer("capture://audio");
Under Ktools everything slows to a trickle and takes about 5 seconds to record 20 miiliseconds worth of data, then i get aboput 80,000 bytes of data that appears to be 16 bits
in the Manager class description
http://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/teaching/03/modules/CO/6/25/doc/LOC/MMA/javax/microedition/media/Manager.html
it says I can do things like:
Manager.createPlayer("capture://audio?bits=8");
When I do this I get a MediaException:
Cannot create a DataSource for: capture://audio?bits=8
How can I control the sample rate, # of bits etc...?
Thank You

You can try to use "capture://audio?encoding=pcm&rate=8000&bits=8&channels=1" if it can't work, means that your system doesn't support 8bit audio. You should down the program into real phone and try again. If you want to minimize the audio size, you should use "encoding=gsm", but some phone does't support gsm audio capture!

Distorted Audio-Captured too loud through mixer

I have a video that has a man speaking and most of it is distorted. It sounds like he is mumbling. The problem occured because the audio was captured too loudly through the mixer. I have tried different filters but none have seemed to work. I have also done the tutorial mentioned on a lot of these discussions. If you have any idea of what to do please help me out.
Thanks,
Micah Wooten

If the audio was recorded that way to begin with then your pretty much screwed. You said it was "captured" too loudly. If that's the case then you could recapture.
