Audio Isn't Playing

I have about 5 .MOVs that i'm trying to edit, but I need to hear them in order to know where to cut. I'm getting no audio (even when i select the "stereo (a1a2) tab" and press play). I've restarted FCX HD several time and even restarted my computer, but, no audio.
Suggestions?

I did, but I'm a poor searcher, I guess because I couldn't find anything. However, upon just reading other posts, I found my answer. Thanks.

Audio and video played inside of apps will no longer work.

I use several apps to listen to audio and within the last few days I tried listening to NPR but when I hit "play" it would just buffer and never play. I then attempted to download some podcasts via iTunes as an alternative and kept getting an error "unable to Download Podcast." I was not on the latest version (5.1.1)of iOS (was on version 5.1) and several apps needed updated so I updated everything. Since then my videos within CNN, NBC, etc stopped working and the audio/podcast download issue remained. Oddly, I can watch videos via the YouTube app or via blogs on a browser but videos or audio within apps(CNN, NPR, NBC, etc) do not play. Sometimes I just get a blank screen and sometimes the audio will actually play but no video depending on the app I'm using.
I have no problem surfing the internet or playing videos via YouTube app so it isn't a connection issue. Here are the steps I've taken thus far to resolve the issue but with no luck:
First issue: Audio not working - just buffer. Also, couldn't download podcasts
1. Restart
2. Reset (On/Off + home)
3. Update to latest version iOS (now on 5.1.1)
4. Update all apps
New issue: Video now doesn't work within apps. Audio and podcast download still not working.
5. Reset (On/Off +Home - again)
6. Reset All Settings
7. Restore from Backup
8. Reset (On/Off +Home - getting desperate)
9. Deleted CNN app from iPad and iTunes, ran sync and reinstalled. Still no luck but now actually get a message when trying to play video "Unable to play video" (very helpful)
I'm at a loss. any ideas would be much appreciated.
Thank you!

Did you already update to the latest iOS; http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623

Powerpoint - audio file not playing

Hi I created a PP presentation using PP 2010 and I inserted an audio file to play automatically throughout the whole presentation. I email it to a friend and it plays perfectly on her computer at home. However, when she tries to play it on her laptop at
school (they have Office 2007) the music doesn't play at all.
I've told her to delete the audio file and insert it again but it still isn't working - any suggestions?

What's the format of that audio file? Convert its format to .wmv and re-insert it.
Please copy the audio file onto desktop and directly play it through Windows Media Player, does it work?

Audio Dropout when playing video

Hi,
I have been experiencing audio dropout when playing Youtube or any kind of video. I am currently using an audio interface (Focusrite Scarlett 18i6) connecting to my speakers. This has been going on for some time.
OSX 10.10.2
iMac (27-inch, Late 2013)
Processor 3.5 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M 2048 MB
Storage 500GB Flash Drive
Please help!!
Thanks and Regards

If you have menu's etc then the problem isn't one of video mode settings or indeed
connection/cabling.
Agreed.
Are the problems consistent (ie always the same files, or does a file sometimes play and not other
times)
Yes, also the intro screen doesn't appear at startup. (audio does). NitoTV (which uses mPlayer) works fine. Perhaps QuickTime is corrupt on it?
Have you played these files on the tv before.
Yes.
Do they play in itunes.
Yes, they play fine in iTunes - audio and video.
Thanks,
James.

Final Cut Pro Audio won't play

I am making a slideshow with final cut, and every now and then I run into a song that won't play audio. I looked at the audio levels on the clip and they just aren't there. The music will go into final cut from itunes, but the actual audio isn't there. It works well when I play the song (in Itunes, or out of the final cut music and sound menu), but not when it is in the video. This only happens for a few songs though, any help??????

Hi Druw77
I have had that for months and months , I have found now a quick way to get around it, but it's not a solution is to press cmd f12 at the same time and then hit render again. I should get you around the problem for awhile but I suspect you need to reboot the software as i have done on many occasions!
Sorry no one has helped me with the solution has yet and seems to be a problem with a few editors I know as well.

Help! My new X-Fi Xtreme Audio Notebook wont play in 5

Hey! Just bought Logitech Z-5500 and X-Fi Xtreme Audio Notebook but I've been wondering why the heck I can't choice 5. Only 2./2.0 and headphones? I've also noticed that my read speakers isn't playing so much as the front in most of the songs I hear? Is it because I need that upgrade kit for analog cables? But what If i buy that upgrade kit, and I still use optical cable, do I need to use the analog surround cables to get 5. on optical? Or what?

Hi there Wulffez?In answer to your second question, all surround sound speakers play more in the front than the back speakers as the front speakers are for the main sound and the back speakers are just for background noise and to make you feel like the music/ sound is all around you. If it helps my speakers do this too and i imagine everyone elses surround sound speakers do it as well?(Also you will probably need digital surround cables, but i am not 00% certain)?Hope this helpssupernerd59

Audio isn't being captured

Hello,
I've got a problem that just recently started. When I try to capture footage the visual is being caught but the audio isn't. When I'm capturing I can hear the audio through the camdcorder, but not through the computer. Then when I disconnect the camcorder after the capture, the clip doesn't play the audio, only the visual. The Audio Tab shows "mono" but only has quiet static.
I've seen other messages that suggest trashing the FCE preferences. I'm a little hesitant to do that before getting more info.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

What's the camera? How is it connected to the
computer? What's the sound you hear on the camcorder
during playback? What channel is the sound recorded
on? Was the recording made with the camera's built-in
mic or an external mic?
Tom,
It's a Sony Digital Handycam DCR-TRV315. It's connected through my external hardrive. I've tried different cords. The sound that I hear on playback is a very very quiet hum. I can only hear it when I increase the volume on the audio clip. I'm not sure what channel it was recorded on. How would I find that out? It was recorded through an external mic. As I said, I can hear the sound when I play the video on the camera.
Thanks for your help!

How can I have html5 audio continue to play in background in iOS7 from my flex mobile app

I have mobile app I've developed in flash builder 4.6 (flex 4.12 sdk) and I have a stagewebview component which contains HTML5 audio (mp3 retrieved from my web server and streamed / played via the app)... I want to have the ios version of the app CONTINUE to play the mp3 / html5 audio when the user presses the home button on their iphone or opens another app... so that when multitasking, my audio continues to play (where theres no other NEW audio started, for instance).
I have added the following to my manifest but it still doesnt do what Im after. I used this in another mobile app where I just play audio from the url directly in flash builder (i.e. NOT via webview component) -- but here it seems the webview suspends (Im guessing)...

Is there a way around this so my audio continues to play? My test device is an iphone 4 running the latest version of ios7

You can import audio files into Logic (as easy as drag and drop). You can download these loops from the Internet from a variety of sources both free and paid. Just do a Google search for those.
Once you've imported the file into Logic Pro, right click on the audio region and scroll down to the "Convert" option about halfway down the menu. The top option will be "Add to Apple Loops library" - click this, and it'll add the file into your Apple loops.
It won't affect the other loops in the library.

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

1 Create a Player, and add a ControllerListener
2.Start the Player
3.In the ControllerListener's controllerUpdate method, use getMediaTime() by receiving a EndOfMediaEvent
However I think this method is not convenience, if I don't want to play it how I can get the length of the audio file?
Is anyone can help me?Really thanks a lot !

How do I get a 3ga audio file to play on iphone 4s?

How do I get a 3ga audio file to play on iphone
4s?

You don't need to download an App.
My understanding is that you simply have to change the file extension from .3ga to.mp3 (on each file) and then they should play.
That said, it works on a Macbook Pro - I've just tried it.
Not sure about iOS though.
Please reply if it works for you.

Exported MPEG2 Audio Won't Play in Quicktime - is there a workaround?

Just completed my first video edit in Premiere Elements. Working with 720p HD footage from a Sony Cybershot. Tried various preset outputs, HD 720p 25, among others. In all cases, picture looked good but audio did not play back. Just discovered after some searching that Quicktime will not playback MPEG2 audio without a $20 add on. That's not going to break my bank, but do I really need it? Is there a workaround for this? Can I export in Dolby Digital? My goal is simply to have a finished project that is the most universally playable as possible. Will eventually archive on tape and DVD. Obviously, want to maintain the best sound as possible.

Instead of using Apple's QuickTime Player, I would suggest looking into another player, such as VLC Player, or MediaPlayer Classic HC, both of which are free, and both of which have a very full set of CODEC's included in them.
For the best possible Audio, it would be best to choose PCM/WAV as the Audio CODEC. This is almost totally universal, and unlike all MPEG Audio (including AC3), is uncompressed. The file will be a bit larger (Audio does not take up as much space, as does the Video), but should give better quality, and not require additional CODEC's for users to play the file w/ Audio. This might not be an option in all possible Export/Share schemes.
For either PCM/WAV, or AC3 Audio, this will be set from the Audio Tab in the Export/Share settings. Remember setting the Encoding for the Audio might not be available in all formats, so just check that Audio Tab in the settings dialog screen (usually under Advanced).
As for DD Audio, you can set the Audio Encoding to AC3, wich is Dolby Digital, but that option might not be available with all possible Export/Share formats, so it gets down to an "it depends." This will be stereo (2-channel) Audio.
PrE cannot Encode to DD 5.1 SS (6-channel), as it lacks that Encoder. Even PrPro needs the Minnetonka Audio SurCode Encoder plug-in (US$300 option) to do DD 5.1 SS Export.
Good luck,
Hunt

How to install Sony audio player to play video on Sony tv over thunderbolt connection?

When I play movies via thunderbolt connection to my Sony tv the audio won't play over the tv speakers.

Hi,
I've posted many times about this: we can buy a $70 BD player with HDMI, it works first time, all the times but most of the times HDMI won't work on a $1,000 machine called computer. MS, video card vendors and computer vendors need to sit down and discuss this seriously.
In this case, updating video card driver may help and somtimes keep trying and trying.
Regards.
