Audio issues when adding movies to Premiere Elements 11

When I try to add movies to PE11 the audio gets all screwed up. I am very new to video editing and I haven't had this issue with other movies, only those froma specific camera. The only thing I can see is that the audio from the camera that works is mono, and the audio from the camera that doesn't work is stereo. Any suggestions on how I can fix this issue?

In addition to Hunt's questions, I would ask:
1. What are the brand, model, and settings for your camera? What are the properties of the video that it generates?
2. Are you accepting the project preset automatically being given you after you drag your video to the Timeline (Expert view) or are you setting the project preset in the New Project dialog yourself. The project preset should match the properties of your source media. Sometimes the program's choice is not appropriate. Please check under Edit Menu/Project Settings to see what the program is setting and compare that with what you know are the properties of the source media.
For Properties Readout, please consider the free MediaInfo
http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en
3. Is the audio messing up the only problem that you are having? If so, where is it manifesting itself
a. when you playback the rendered Timeline in the Edit Mode Monitor
or
b. when you playback the exported Timeline on one of your players
or
c. other
How is it messing up...distorted sound or audio out of sync?
Getting more information on the above will help us to work together to resolve your issue.
Thanks.

Problems with audio when exporting to movies

Hi All,
I teach sequencing and one of the projects is to score a short piece of music to film. Logic Pro 9 is great for this (though beat mapping isn't the most friendly of functions) and my students (most only 16-18 years old) have made some great projects.
Right the question is what are the best settings to use when exporting the audio to movie? Some students don't get any sound when bounced or some are getting the oprginal with the new audio (doubled).
To assess and store student work we use vimeo for video projects and the wierdest thing is that when uploaded these bounces (the ones that worked) have no sound at all.
Never had these issues with Logic 8 and just wondering if anyone has any ideas on how I can resolve this?
Thanks and happy new year.

I've used flip4mac for about a year and have had no problems with it. I mostly use it to export preview versions for windoze people. The quality is very good, though it takes significantly longer to export than a similar-quality quicktime movie.

Lost the audio when exporting to .mov on PC

i made a project in Motion that lasts about 26 seconds....even included an audio track to overlay it. i exported it into a QT format (.mov) onto my desktop on the Mac. i tested it on the Mac, and it works great.
when i transfer it to my Windows laptop, the .mov file plays but doesn't include the audio.
any suggestions to get the audio to play?

No worries.
It's just I think there are more people with QuickTime on Windows experience on that forum so you have a better chance at getting help.
The codec you are using is a standard QT codec that comes with the player? The version of QT installed on the PC is the same as the one on your Mac? Those are the two things I'd check if it was happening to me. Good luck.

Issues exporting QuickTime movie

Hello there,
I am working on a video project that includes HD video and still images. When I export my project to a QuickTime movie (either compressed or not) it always shows some kind of really strange jumps repeats one or the other image of the same sequence, its like a "hickup", or shows a pixelated image for a second before parts of the video play. I realize is only with the video, not with the images. And it happens always in the same place.
If you could take a look at this example and tell me what you think, or what the problem could be I would be very glad to hear from you!

Thank you!!

If you could take a look at this example and tell me what you think, or what the problem could be I would be very glad to hear from you!
Stepping through the content, I see both the "skip back" (hiccup) and the pixellation you mentioned. In the first case, a number of the frames used during the transition are repeated when the transition finishes. As to the "pixellation," it looks as if sub-block decoding was interrupted before completion and render/display prematurely. Both appear to only be present during very short cross-dissolve transitions between video segments. Not sure if they are being generated by the transition effect software alone or in combination with the reduced frame rate, low data rate, and/or possible "B-framing" of content. (Not knowing the settings used, it is difficult to analyze specifics here.) In addition, I also noted you have "green fringing" which is due to the "odd pixel" dimensions used (600x337). Suggest you try something like 608x342 or 598x336 to see if you can eliminate it. (I.e., most efficient encoding occurs when H.264 dimensions are divisible by 16 but using dimensions divisible by 2 will usually help here. Optimum encoding dimensions and most exact aspect ratio dimensions intersect at 768x432 or 512x288.)

Audio In Exported QT Movie Disappears After 23 Seconds?

My 7 minute project is composed of AVCHD clips optimised as ProRes 422.
It has a simple title and cross dissolves between each clip.
I select Share>Export Media as Video and Audio and using Current Settings.
The resulting QT file plays perfectly up to 23 seconds (just before the end of the first clip) and then the audio disappears.
I have trashed the prefs and tried two more times but the results are the same. No audio after 23 seconds.
The audio in the project is perfect.
I have not (knowingly) deselected anything.
Any ideas what might be the cause?

I have just deleted the first cross-dissolve, exported again as above and guess what?
The audio lasts up to what was the second transition but is now the first.
So it appears to be transition-related.
When there was a transition at position 1 the audio stopped there in exported videos..
Now that the first transition is at position 2, the audio now stops there.
One other point I have just remembered.
These are complete clips and all the transitions are Full Overlap.

Exporting Reference Movies with Lion and QT X

Has anybody else had issues exporting Reference Movies from FCP7 under Lion?
When we open a Reference Movie created with FCP7/Lion in QT X 10.1 (the version that ships with Lion), we're only able to see the first frame of the movie, followed by black/blank video, and audio only.
Curiously, QT7 (on Lion) and QT X 10.0 (on Snow Leopard) are able to play these movies without a problem. However, a number of 3rd-party applications and devices that we use in our facility (most notably an Omneon Spectrum) choke on the reference movies in a similar manner to QT X 10.1.
We've got a support ticket open with Omneon, although they claim to have never heard of the problem, and are currently picking their way through the issue as well. However, there are scattered reports of others who are having similar problems.
For the sake of thoroughness, it's worth mentioning that this is a brand-new Mac Pro with Lion 10.7.2, and FCP 7.0.0; both fresh installs (apparently downgrading to SL is unsupported on this machine). We tried patching FCP to 7.0.3 with Pro Application Update 2010-02, which did not resolve the problem. We've since reverted to 7.0.0, to rule out the patch as the culprit. The reference movies in question do not contain any edits that would require a render, and everything's stored on a NAS that's accessible to the whole office (hence the fact that we're able to view the files on our Snow Leopard machines.
Picking apart the reference movie using Apple's Atom Inspector shows one curious detail in the alias data inside 'dref' atom inside of the reference movie (which is how QT figures out where the original media is). Rather than being a simple file pointer, the alias actually contains a whole bunch of information, including the "relative" path to the video data, relative to the original location of the reference movie, as well as the absolute path of that file, starting from the root of the filesystem. Both of these paths are presented in "Mac" and "Unix" formats, ie:
Mac: volume:folder1:folder2:filename
Unix: /volume/folder1/folder2/filename
Key difference is the use of colons, rather than slashes to separate folders in the path. At least, that was the key difference prior to Lion. We've noticed that, while the SL machines export reference movies with paths that resemble the above, our Lion machine generates:
Mac: volume:folder1: folder2: filename
Unix: /volume/folder1/folder2/filename
(Notice the spaces)
When we attempt to play the movies with our Omneon applications or in QT X 10.1, our NAS throws a whole bunch of 'File not Found' errors. Presumably, those spaces are the culprit. Removing the spaces with a hex editor completely mangles the QT movie, and renders it compltetely unplayable.
Unfortunately, the alias data inside the dref atom doesn't appear to be a standard Mac OS alias, and the only documentation of the alias file format (linked above) is hilariously out of date. Presently, the format is undocumented, and it appears that developers are discouraged from interacting with the files directly. In other words, I have no way of knowing whether or not the spaces are actually significant, or are a completely innocuous and documented part of the file format.
Has anybody encountered anything similar, or found a solution? I'm at a bit of a dead-end here, and would welcome any advice.

I totally understand where you're coming from; Apple's support of some of QuickTime's more advanced features has unfortunately been waning for some time now.
Avoiding the buggy parts of the program is always a good strategy, although the ability to quickly export reference movies is something that is absolutely vital to our workflow. Simply put, losing these files is an absolute dealbreaker.
Two things seem to be going on... FCP on Lion appears to be generating slightly malformed reference movies, and QT X 10.2 seems to be freaking out when it tries to play back those movies (while prior versions are seemingly able to work around the problem). I suppose this could have something to do with the introduction/evolution of QTKit and AV Foundation on Lion, although I'm surprised that this would be affecting FCP7, which was built around older APIs.

IMovie audio issues. Fine in timeline, but when rendering to iTunes or Media Browser, audio from certain portions of movie files are heard in places where it shouldn't be !

iMovie 11 audio issues. Fine in timeline, but when rendering to iTunes or Media Browser, audio from certain portions of movie files are heard in places where it shouldn't be !
I have created a project where I have a montage of photos and video clips edited together with music under. Some audio portions of the video files are being muted in some areas and those portions are being heard in another part of the project. This is not for all video clips only certain ones.
The project plays fine in the timeline, but when I render the project thru iTunes or Media Browser, this is when the project goes corrupt.
I tried detaching the Audio from the video clips and this somewhat worked, but the original problem still exists with certain audio still being heard where it's not supposed to be.

I have a fix - or rather, a workaround.
WARNING: It is lengthy, but still far better than starting a new project from scratch.
I had this same issue and none of my transitions/clips were at custom speeds, nor did I have anything else weird going on. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do within iMovie to fix this, at least there wasn't for me. iMovie is BY FAR the buggiest software I have ever used and if you haven't already spent hours slaving away on a project, you are so much better off using just about anything else to edit your video.
...But let's assume you have already spent many hours working on your project and you don't want to start all over. Well then, you have at least one option.
It's a pain in the neck, but it's infinitely better than restarting your project from scratch.
This will require:
A software called Soundflower (which is free) and some kind of audio editing software (I use Logic, but really any should work).
1.) You're going to need to export your video with the messed up audio. Typically if you're audio is messing up, you're video is at least usually working just fine (at least it always does for me).
2.) You're going to need to open that video in your audio software and import only the audio. If your software doesn't give you this option, then you're going to need to record the audio from your video using the audio software and Soundflower. You can find tutorials on how to do this, but it's honestly pretty straightforward once you start playing around with you Mac's audio I/O settings. Remember to have your computer's volume all the way up when doing this.
3.) Watch/listen to your video and make notes of where the audio errors occur. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND writing down times too, as they will be extremely helpful later.
4.) Now were going to rip some working audio from the iMovie project itself. Go back into your iMovie project and only play back audio while in the edit window for this step. Do NOT play your project back in full screen.
This part is key: if you try to play back your project from the beginning the audio will usually still mess up. So, what you're gonna have to do is go back on your edit window timeline right before these errors occur and play that specific clip back while recording this working audio with Soundflower and your audio software. Essentially we're only recording the parts of the audio where these errors occur, so try to do this in order if you can. Try to leave several seconds of audio in before the error - that way we can use it as reference when we construct our new audio track.
5.) Now in your audio software you should have your original error-filled audio track and the new clips that we just captured. This part can be painstaking if you're not familiar with audio editing softwares, but as you'll learn, it's really not that hard.
You're going to look at your original audio track and compare it to your new working audio clips. You should be able to notice where those new clips are supposed to go by looking at the identical (or close to identical) waveform shapes in your original audio track. The two should correspond with one another. If you don't understand what I mean right now, you will when you start playing around with the audio. This is why marking times is very important.
Take your new clips and split them up if you haven't already, that way you can drag them around and edit them separately from one another. Essentially your going to line these new clips up with original and then replace the original parts with new ones.
We need to get this as precise as possible, so start off by getting them as close as you can with your naked eye, and then use a zoom tool to zoom in as much as possible so that you can get them lined up PERFECTLY, or at least extremely close. In some softwares you can just drag these new clips on top of the old track, but most of the time you will need to actually cut out the old piece and replace it with the new one. In doing this, zoom in and make sure that you are NOT cutting out a bigger space than your new clip will fill - otherwise you will have small gaps in your audio.
VERY IMPORTANT: Also make sure that this new audio track starts at the EXACT SAME time as your original - otherwise your new audio will be out of sync.
I know this part can really suck if you're not used to audio editing, but at this point, there is little other choice.
6.) Once you are done with this, export your newly pieced together audio track.
7.) Now open iMovie and create a NEW project. Re-import the video that you exported earlier that has the messed up audio. This might take a while, so just be patient.
8.) Then right click the clip and select "Detach Audio". This will do just that - allowing you to edit the audio separately from the video. Now delete this audio.
9.) Now, import the new, perfect audio track that we just made and make sure that it starts at the start of the project. Make sure it's in sync and that everything works.
Now just export your new video with the working audio and you should be done. Since we have given iMovie the audio with no editing actually being done in iMovie, it does not have to generate its own audio now and you should have absolutely no errors now - unless there is some that you forgot to take out earlier.
YOU'RE FINALLY DONE!!!
I know this entire process *****, but if you're that far into your project, there is little else that you can do. Now you've learned your lesson:
DON'T USE IMOVIE EVER AGAIN.
I hope this helped!

Audio file missing from MOV when exported as a quicktime movie.

Using Keynote 9, I imported video into presentation that was edited in iMovie 9. When I export the presentation to quicktime movie the audio is missing from the video file. The audio file plays fine in the standard keynote presentation mode.

This is STRICTLY a work around! Official fix will come from Apple as an update more than likely.
Duplicate item first (File > Duplicate). On newly duplicated project change file association type (File > get info). Under name and extension section take out .key). Close Get Info and save with removing .key. Double click to open the file (now a compression). Open uncompressed folder (same name as original file, now shows as a folder). Now in the Data folder find a .mov file named "Recording" with randomly generated letters and numbers behind it. Drag .mov file to desktop or any other directory. Open extracted .mov file with QuickTime to verify integrity. Save as audio file only. Get Info on file again and place .key value at end of file/extension for project. Open project. Under Play menu option delete the recording. Under Audio inspector drag the .mov of audio only to recording back in. Test play project to see if its accurate. Export to QuickTime and see if issue is resolved.
If issue persists:
Export with corrupted audio as QuickTime. Separate the audio from video track. Delete audio. Import the extracted .mov audio file. Share > File. Enjoy.

Exporting Quicktime .mov with audio

I searched for a solution to my problem for a while and haven't found any so I felt I'd finally ask.
I am exporting a movie in Premiere Pro 2.0 as a .mov. Yet everytime I export the audio quality is awful. The audio plays fine within premiere, and the video exports perfectly. I've tried uncompressed audio, and the result is a loud static sound. I've tried multiple compressors (oblivious to which I should be using) none of which offered good results (sometimes it was even silent). What settings should I be using? (By the way, the audio in the scene is .mp3 and .wav, but I felt using the uncompressed setting would be find since I wouldn't be recompressing the audio)
I'm sure this is a very basic issue that has been addressed multiple times, but I couldn't find a thread or resource on the internet that helped with this issue I'm having. Thank you for any help you can offer, I appreciate it.

I use the same settings, as you, with one exception - instead of 8-bit, choose 16-bit for the Sample Depth.
I also dislike using MP3 as a source. With the exception of tiny SFX files, I always convert these to PCM/WAV (Uncompressed) 48KHz 16-bit, before Import. That does NOT restore all the data lost with the MP3 compression (I hate the sound with MP3, but that's a different topic), but it gives me the best source to edit. I use Adobe Audition, but the free Audacity does a great job of this.
Hope that the 16-bit does the trick for you.
Good luck,
Hunt
BTW - what are you using to play the resulting MOV?

CS5.5--Issues with audio from imported avi's & issues exporting

To Start, my laptop:
CPU: Intel® Core ™ i7-2330QM CPU @ 2.00 GHz
CPU Clock Frequency: 2.00 GHz
System Memory: 8 GBytes
Cache Memory: 1 MBytes/6 Mbytes
Manufacturer: Sony Corporation
Model name: VPCF226FM
BIOS VERSION: R1190V#
OS Version: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium
ME Version: 7.0.10.1203
System Type: 64-bit Operating System
I downloaded the 30-day free trial of Premiere Pro CS5.5 with all updates. To play with the program, for my own personal amusement, I wanted to edit together pieces from a bunch of avi videos that I know to play properly outside the program, tested on more than one computer.
At first, importing the files seemed to be no problem, making subclips as I went along.
However, as I continued to import files, there began to be a sound issue--sometimes the sound not being present till I was 1/3 of the way through the clip, sometimes the sound seemingly playing catch up with audio that should be earlier in the video appearing later, sometimes the sound wouldn't come up at all, and still other times I'd be, for example, on video 5 when pieces of audio from video 2 would start playing over the current video.
I initially thought it may just be a memory issue, working with many large video files.
But later, when I went to edit the subclips I made, I found that many of them no longer had sound, even if they did when I initially subclipped them.
Weirdly, in the timeline, there is no consistency, as clips will appear in the video track but only some show audio tracks too. But those with audio tracks don't always play audio and those that show NO audio tracks at all actually do play audio sometimes. Also, those that show audio tracks and don't play them sometimes will show waveforms, sometimes don't. A clip with no waveform may not play 95% of the time, but then occasionally will suddenly have the waveform and play a couple times before reverting back to no audio.
A suitable solution for this personal amusement project would just be to drop a new soundtrack over the thing but, before I even got that far, I tried exporting as avi's and mpeg4's but then get error messages such as:
Premiere Pro has encountered an error.
[..\..\Src\Win\WinFile.cpp-785]
Error compiling movie.
Unknown error.
In case it was a memory issue, I tried starting a new project, only importing 2 videos, but had the same audio and exporting issues.
I'm getting really frustrated as I spent a lot of time importing/subclipping and then even more time prepping before that.
For those who are bound to ask, while new to Premiere, I'm not a novice with editing. I've used Final Cut Pro at work for many years (without such issues).
Thanks for your help.

Issues exporting MOV from Flash

I have a movie that uses a couple audio files. When I run this as a swf, everything plays fine...Except at the end. I have a frame that says thankyou.play()
That is tied to a mediaDisplay component
When I put a trade for thankyou.onSoundComplete....Nothing happens.
So with the Flash still working fine for the most part, I export the movie as a Quicktime movie. It plays the intro audio but never moves forward from there. The background noise is gone.
Any ideas?

Deleted audio comes back when movie is exported.

When I view the project in iMovie, there is no audio except for the music tracks I added, but when I export it as a quicktime movie or to DVD, the audio that I had removed is back. I have double checked the settings, everything is muted, and I even went through and detached the audio from each clip. It still comes back every time I export the movie in any type of format. And I am using speed changes in my Video project. Quiet a few actually. Any ideas why this keeps happening?

I am having the exact same problem. And I am using speed changes in my Video project. Quiet a few actually. As well as effects, titles, and voice overs. I have a lot going on. But when I view it in iMovie it looks and sounds perfect. But after I export some of the audio comes back. FYI: all my video is in HD and on an external HD (WD 1TB). ... I've tried to export in HD, Lg, and Med. files all with the same results. Please help..

How can I export a movie with audio that I have edited in logic 9 to a quicktime movie

I imported a quicktime movie into logic and added audio and effects but when i export it the original audio from the quicktime movie is still there even though it doesn't sound in logic!

Hi
One of teh final steps in the Export to Movie process is a dialog box where one can select which of the audio tracks embedded within the movie are included.
You must actively de-select those tracks that you do NOT want to include in the Export.
