Audio disappears following import

Hi, I'm having some audio issues with a movie project. I had a bunch of .vob files and converted them to .mov. I imported them to imovie and they were working great with no problems. Then I imported a few more and they had no audio at all, but the ones I initially imported still worked. That was yesterday. Today, the audio on all of the .mov files I imported don't work, even if they were fine previously. I've tried reimporting and reconverting then reimporting and nothing has worked.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I'll try anything!
Thanks!

Audio disappears mid-project

I've created a project using Final Cut Express. I use FCE to create a QuickTime movie of the project. I import the QuickTime movie into iDVD, and use iDVD's "Picture in Picture" theme to create the DVD. I've been creating disc images of the project for several months during the development process, and everything has been working okay until last week. Now, the audio disappears about 50 minutes into the disc image. The audio is there in FCE, it's there in Quicktime, and it's there in iDVD using its dvd player/simulator. I have about 30G of free disk space when I start to create the QuickTime movie, and have about 14G free after the QuickTime movie is created. The disc image is 4G, and I end up with about 14 G of free space after the image is created. The audio disappears mid scene ... not at an audio edit point.
I rebuilt the iDVD project from scratch yesterday (at least I think I did), and the result is the same.
Any suggestions on what to check / do?

I too am having this same problem. Created a 45 minute video from FCE, exported it as a Quicktime movie, created the DVD project and have had no luck creating a workable DVD using iDVD. When I burn a disc, the audio cuts out for the rest of the disc at a random location. Never in the same place twice. I was able to play the FCE project with no problems, the quicktime movie and from the DVD previewer. I was able to create a disc image using iDVD with no problems. After researching and talking to MAC experts, they recommended that I first get some high quality discs. I was using Memorex before and was told that that had the most problems. I am now using Sony DVD+R discs and still having the same problems.

Audio disappears part way through avi file

I have imported an avi file into a new CC project.
Video stream:
Codec: DV Video (dvsd)
Resolution: 720x576
Frame Rate: 25
Decoded format: Planar 4:2:0 YUV
Audio Stream
Codec: PCM S16 LE (araw)
Channels: Stereo
Sample rate: 48000 Hz
Bits per sample: 16
PC is running Windows 8.1 and is running CC 7.2.2 (33)
The file itself runs for 43 minutes and is 5.4 Gb in size
When editing the file 25 minutes in the audio disappears completely and is gone for the rest of the clip.
I have checked the file in VLC and the audio is present throughout the file.
I used Avidemux 2.6 to split off from the main file about 10 minutes of data where there was no audio within Premiere.
I imported that new file into Premiere and the audio is present in the new file.
I can therefore use that but don't know what is wrong with the original file.

Thanks

Thank you for the information.
I have read the source patching article and watched the video too. Very interesting and an impressive function.
I did also look at the Audio Conforming link a lot of which I didn't understand; I think though I did try what was suggested regarding XMP stuff although it did not make any difference with the file I had the issue with.
My problem is that the audio just stops part way through the clip.
I have reduxed into a new file all the audio/video from the original file from just before the audio disappeared and that seems to work OK. Perhaps there is an issue with my original file.
It doesn't help that I have a brand new PC and this is the very first video I have edited in Premiere CC as I had previously been using CS4 and even then I haven't used that for a while.
Anyway, thank you for your help and I will see how I get on.

Audio lost when importing MPEGs into Final Cut Pro

When I import MPEG files into Final Cut Pro 4.5 the audio disappears. When I play the clips in Quicktime the audio and video are present, after I import only the video is present. I have tried adjusting the sequence presets for MPEG, but that has not helped. Any advice? Thanks!!

Background audio disappears when an interaction slide appears

I have a (Captivate 6 produced) project which includes approx 40 slides and it looks to be running smoothly when published.
However, I have imported a background music audio track which I want to play (and then loop) during the course of the whole course - however, whenever it reaches a slide which has an interaction on it, the music disappears and then returns when a non-interaction-based slide is reached. Disappears again when the next slide is reached that contains an interaction, etc.
I am unable to test in earlier versions of Captivate and so I am wondering whether this is an issue with this version of the program i.e. background audio disappears when an interaction slide is shown?

We don't have the 6.1 update yet, but I did find a workaround for this (although it's not perfect). With Captivate 6 there is now a "Play Audio" action that you can assign to the Slide Properties "On Enter" action. When I did this, the narration continues to play even after the Flash interaction appears in the timeline. So for any narrated slides that have Flash interactions, you need to:
1) remove the Audio narration that is imported to the Slide (Audio > Remove > Slide from the menu bar)
2) On the Slide Properties - On Enter action, select Play Audio, then select the appropriate narration file for that slide.
This seemed to work -- the only problem is that if you use the "Play/Pause" button in the Adobe playback navigation bar, the button seems to get confused and changes to the Play state while the audio is still playing (instead of staying in the Pause state until the audio finishes as it does when the audio is imported to the Slide itself as narration). Not sure how to fix that issue except to remove the Pause/Play button from the playbar and just use the Next/Back buttons. And if you use navigation buttons instead of the Adobe playbar, you don't need to worry about this.
Hope this helps!

I open a file - playback - the audio is there - doesn't appear in timeline, but I hear it, after 1 edit, the audio disappears. I have to reboot to get it back then it happens again. All suggeswtions welcome. Thank you, Randy

Is your Premiere Elements 12/12.1 running on a Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit computer or a Mac computer?
What is the brand/model/settings of the camera recording your video?

Are you sure about the Frame Width and Frame Height that you gave 720 x 484? Did you mean 720 x 480?
Yes, my err. 720X480
For the Frame Rate, was it really 29.97 frames per second and you rounded it off to 29 frames per second? Or,
is the frame rate really 29 frames per second?
If the properties that you just posted are representative of your source file, what project preset did you or the

Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

Hi, I have problem with importing MOV files from SJCAM 4000. MOV files are in supported formats for Adobe Premiere Elements 11. But if I'm importing MOV file, only audio part is imported, video part is not imported. How can I solve this problem?

haben
From looking at the specifications of your camera (SJCam 4000), we know already what video compression your camera is using. It is H.264.
A H.264.mov file should be supported by Premiere Elements 11. On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running?
Do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer? And, are you running QuickTime and Premiere Elements 11 from a
User Account with administrative privileges? Please go to Premiere Elements 11 Publish+Share/Computer/QuickTime to confirm that you find
presets there for the QuickTime choice there.
What are the properties of these H.264.mov files - is it 1080p30 (1920 x 1080p30) or something else? Do you know if this camera is recording with a variable or
a constant frame rate?
Please review and consider and then we will decide what next.
Thank you.

FAQ: How do I troubleshoot audio issues when importing .MTS files?

Hello. The link FAQ: How do I troubleshoot audio issues when importing .MTS files?
does not work, and i need the answer please. My imported MTS clips are not playing back audio because it seems that no audio imported with the video. Thanks, Don.

Hi there
Audio plays when the object with the audio assigned appears. This is why you hear it when the Button appears.
Try assigning the audio instead to the object that appears when you click the button. Perhaps the caption.
Cheers... Rick

Audio Drift when importing VHS Tapes-Do I need a Canopus ADVC 300

Embarking on the daunting task of importing/editting >100 2hr VHS tapes, and want to get the best results for my efforts.
I pop a tape into a VCR connected via S-Video (video) and RCA (audio) cables to a Sony DVMC-DA1 AD converter, and from there to my Mac Pro via Firewire. Use FCE "Capture Now" using NTSC DV Converter setup. Start capture, let it run unattended, and return at my leisure to do some rough editting.
Problem is the audio on the imported clip gradually loses sync, by about 2 seconds by the end of the clip. The sync problem is present on the clip when played with Quicktime as well.
Questions:
1. Is there a reasonable way to correct this in FCE?
2. Since my Sony converter is nearing 10 years old, will use of a more recent AD converter such as the Canopus ADVC 300 result in a perfectly synced import?
3. If so, can you comment on the Canopus's purported video noise reduction and image stabilization capabilities? Is it noticable/worthwhile?
Thanks for your time.

Hello,
The problem is the audio is not 'locked' to the video, and your old Sony DVMC-DA1 does not appear to support locked audio.
The only way you might deal with this in FCE itself would be to capture shorter clips (say, under 15 minutes each) which would minimize the degree to which the audio drifts out of sync in each clip. (The longer the clip, the greater the drift.)
Given the large amount of video you wish to digitize (some 200 hours), it will be far preferable to use a Canopus ADVC-100, 110 or higher model - +they all support DV locked audio+ - so the video & audio are sync'd without the need for manual intervention or capturing short clips.
I have used the Canopus 100 & 110 extensively and have been very happy with the results. Sometimes, depending on the VHS tape, there is some slight banding at the very bottom of the image but 1) this is +usually not visible+ in the finished movie because it is outside the 'image safe area' and 2) if necessary can be compensated via about a 2%-4% enlargement of the image in FCE (which is not enough to soften the image).
I have not used the Canopus 300 because I never felt the need, as I am happy with my results from the 100 & 110. Users of the 300 have been pretty positive about its built-in TBC and image cleaning capabilities.

What's the highest quality audio format to import CD?

I've a 40 GB iPod. the system default to AAC. But i'm planning to buy a Shure e4c ear-plug and want to make sure i've the best quality audio format recording in the ipod.
could someone tell me what audio format yields the best audio quality to import CD? i'm only used less than 20GB of the ipod.
so i don't mind using the best audio format which may take the most space.

Simple answer: Apple Lossless. You will hear the song at the same audio quality level as on the CD--at about half the size.

Audio monitoring follows video to Firewire Output

I'm a new FCS/Soundtrack Pro user but have been using ProTools LE and HD for some time.
When I select Video Out Firewire to view my video on an external monitor my audio monitoring follows and feeds the firewire device instead of my internal Mac outputs or my DIGI-002R.
I only want to view the vision on the monitor and keep my audio outputs playing through the DIGI002R. Is there any way of achieving this or am I missing something in the setup?

Audio disappears when I reverse a video in iMovie 11?

Hello. I was reversing and mirroring videos today with no problems. Then when I went to reverse another video, the video reversed fine, but the video's audio disappeared. The audio plays perfectly fine when the video isn't reversed, so I'm not sure what the problem could be. Like I said, I reversed other videos with no problems, so I know I'm doing it correctly. I'm just wondering if there's a way to fix this. Thanks.

The iMovie forum is here

That's where the knowledgeable ones on that issue hang out. Be sure to include the version of iMovie that you're using too.

Folders disappear once imported?

When I am importing new images from my HDrive (where I want the masters) I choose ADD. Once imported, the folders all look great...the main folder is there ie GUJARAT and the subfolders are there too ie Gujarat 1, Gujarat 2 etc. When I close LR, and reopen, the folders have disappeared and do not show up under my HD on the left hand side. However, the photos are there in the main top folder which is my HD. When i locate the photo it does not say it is missing, however, the folder GUJARAT and the subfolders are not to be seen. WHY??? Should I be choosing COPY instead of ADD? or creating a new catalogue? I imported thousands before in this way and never had a problem. Now, my folders and subfolders are not showing up, although the photos are still there......whats going on??? HELP!

No, they don't appear. The total number of photos in the external hard drive (called Little Russian) indicates that the photos are there, have been imported, but they do not show up in the designated folders. I also went to Varanasi and Kerala on that trip, and downloaded the folders fine...they show up with all the subfolders. When I was travelling, I would download my memory cards onto my laptop desktop, then put them on a Lacie Rugged portable hard drive. Then I imported them into LR. I backed them up on another portable Rugged HD. Once at home, I moved those files to the desktop external hard drive called Little Russian. When I opened LR, the photos said they were missing, so I redirected them to Little Russian hard drive and all was fine. This worked well with the Varanasi and the Kerala photos. However, when I went to do the same with the Mumbai, Goa and Gujarat files, they all seemed to import, but the folders would not show up on the left hand side under Little Russian in LR, even though the photos are there, and the count of photos is indicated and correct in the main folder called Little Russian. Here is what it looks like: Little Russian 13,985 - INDIA 2012       - Kerala 2212              - kerala 1              -kerala 2 etc       -Varanasi 3822               - varanasi 1               - varanasi 2 etc
Under INDIA 2012 I imported Mumbai and Goa but they don't show up( but the photos are there under the Little Russian main folder)Under Little Russian, I imported Gujarat with 13 subfolders and nothing shows up ( and the photos are there under the Little Russian main folder)I also imported some photos from Mexico as a folder under Little Russian and they are there too, but the folder does not show up.
I tried to click on the folder Little Russian and click add a folder...when I name it Gujarat, it says it is already there and I cannot have two folders of the same name.
I tried to click on GO TO FOLDER IN LIBRARY, but nothing seems to happen.
I can't figure this out.
I am very confused by this....what do you think? I would appreciate any comments.
