AUDIO LOST AFTER CAPTURE

Hi all. I am capturing from a panasonic gs 400 which indicates 16 bit audio captured ok. Tape plays back fine in camera with full audio. I have checked my settings on fce and they seem fine, pal 16 bit audio.
When I start to capture the audio registers ok in the right hand audio meter. After I capture and play the clip in the viewer/timeline there is no audio at all. Running short of ideas to fix it, any clues?
Many Thanks

Hi Ian, thanks for taking the time to reply.
I am using FCE 2.0.3
I have captured video and audio before without any problems.
The audio file appears in the timeline but there is nothing in it, the visuals are fine.
It plays fine in the viewer and registers on the meter but there is no audio after capture.
I do not seem to have the View menu>Video out etc, my system just shows view> video>reatime or firewire.
Thanks Mick

Audio dropping after capture

I seem to be having a problem with audio dropping out after capturing. When I play the tape back in the camera the audio plays fine so I guess it was recoreded properly on the tape but when I play the captured footage back in FCP the audio drops out here and there. I am capturing from the camera which the footage was shot on (XL2). I've searched the forms for people with the same issue but can't find anything. Anyone have any ideas?

Just to check - are you using FCP4.5 and have recently upgraded to OSX4.9? Because if so that could be the issue; it was for me for something very similar. In which case your options are to upgrade FCP or downgrade OSX.
The other thing you could try - regardless of your system and version - is to capture using Vidi - http://www.mitzpettel.com/software/vidi.php (I only just recommended this to someone, I am not on commission honestly, it's free!)
I have found that Vidi will sometimes ignore timecode glitches etc that FCP is annoyingly sensitive to.

Audio lost after removing event

I've finalised a project and removed the event. If you remove a event Imovie gives the option to remove the whole event or keep all used fragments. To be able to edit the project later I used the the option to keep all fragments that are in use. Now I'm returning to the project and some part of the audio are missing.
I made use of the precision editor to edit the sounds. Does anybody have a trick to remove the fragments but including fragments with overlapping sounds? I'm using movie 9.0.4.

Grouping a clip's mono audio tracks after capture

Every time I drag a clip to the timeline, I have to click on the clip, and link the audio tracks as a stereo pair, which is really annoying. After a while, I realized that this is because whoever captured the clips forgot to group tracks a1 and a2 together, so now the clips all have two seperate mono tracks.
Now that the clips are already captured, how do I group the two audio tracks into a stereo pair?

Hey Red Truck,
It sounds like you're pretty much doing everything right. My guess is that if your footage was shot, "logged and transfered" with 4 mono audio tracks (like a lot of HD tapeless stuff does, XDCAM, P2) then this little trick might not actually work. If your footage was shot, logged and digitized as 2 mono tracks (again, maybe the diff being a 2 channel miniDV tape as opposed to the common 4 channel HD stuff) the trick usually works. But truthfully, once in a while I noticed it doesn't work and am still unable to explain why.
I kinda have a feeling that I've only ever used the trick on DV-NTSC and DVCPRO 50 two-channel footage and not on HD footage that typically comes in 4 channel mono off P2 and XDCAM.
I'll try to do a test at my end and see if I'm even in the ballpark on this guess. I'm also assuming you're trying this on 4-channel HD footage since you mentioned "...(or four) mono audio tracks" in your post. If you are, for the fun of it, media manage an HD clip down to DV-NTSC with 2 channel stereo audio and try the trick.
It does work as I've done it numerous times on shows in FCP when assist editors accidentally logged and batch captured hours and hours of footage as dual mono instead of stereo.

Audio Lost after Leopard Upgrade on PB G4

I have to admit first off that my machine did have the original "sound looping" problem that launched with the HiRes Powerbooks a couple years ago. I'm not sure if this relates, but it might in some distant way. It was fixed in 10.4.5
However now after I upgraded from Tiger to Leopard I have lost all audio.
Using the keys to change volume shows the sound icon with it at full screen and the sound wave picture part will either be full on or gone depending on the button pushed. But the blocks remain full on. The sound icon on the menu bar is grayed out but full. And in system preferences, it says that there are no options for my internal speakers at all, but the level slider is grayed out and all the way up.
External speakers don't work either.

Good to go. I just needed to shut down my system entirely and reboot.
No problems.

DV Audio drifts after capture - What's the Solution?

Greetings,
Pardon me if this is covered territory, but other posts don't seem to address this scenario directly.
I continue to have audio sync problems when capturing DV footage. I'm using the same camera for capture that was used in the field (Panasonic AG-DVC60). When clips are captured, audio is already out of sync, before placing them on the timeline.
I've checked my settings before capture:
Selected DV Capture
Selected Panasonic as the camera type
Using the same scratch disc (external media) as the project (not HD drive on my iMac).
What's odd is that the 1st DV tape I captured handled audio perfectly. I logged 1 clip, then captured it, audio is fine.
On the 2nd DV tape, I logged several clips, then batch captured. I also checked "Scene Detect", and "Abort on Dropped Frames". Could any of these options be causing audio to drift?
In the past, I've used iMovie as a work-around, since it stores video in DV codec (video and audio combined in 1 stream). Whereas Premier saves Video and Audio as 2 separate streams.
Have any of you found the solution? Thanks in advance.
Blessings.
Doug Palmer

Whereas Premier saves Video and Audio as 2 separate streams.
This should not be the case.
Premiere captures DV material in .avi (pc) or .mov (mac).
As for drifting audio, that should not be the case either.
Have you monitored the tape output outside of Premiere?
Are you certain the audio sync trouble is not recorded on the tape?
I also checked "Scene Detect", and "Abort on Dropped Frames". Could any of these options be causing audio to drift?
These options should have no bearing on the audio sync.
What version of Premiere are you using?

Audio lost after unplugging headphones

After the 9.1.A.0.490 update, I sometimes experience loss of audio after unpluging my headphones. It's really bugging me that I miss calls because of this.

My phone has 4.1.2 JB, build number: 9.1.A.0.490
It happens after pulling the headphone connector from phone - sometimes, not always - for example 1 case from 6... When this happens, the phone speaker will not make sound (incoming message, calendar notification, music player) until:- incoming callor- reconnecting and disconnecting headphonesor- restart phoneThis is my observation - my current opinion is that sometimes after disconnecting headphones phone thinks it is still connected to - so maybe hardware problem...

Associations lost after Capture Design of table definition

Hi,
We use Designer 6i, with versioning on.
We have a table definition T and a view definition V that uses the table definition T. In other words, there is an association in Designer between T and V.
When we Capture Design the table T from a database, the association between T and V is lost.
Is there a possibility to get a warning message in the Capture Design process that the association will be lost?
Is it possible to use a preference concerning Capture Design for this?
TIA,
Lennart de Vos

Hi,
Sorry, I didn't describe the problem properly.
I want to Capture Design a table, and not to Capture Design a view.
The issue in Design Editor (DE) is as follows:
(1) Capture Design a table T_CAPDES from the database.
(2) Create a fixed format view definition V_CAPDES in DE, based on columns of the table definition T_CAPDES.
(3) Create in the RON a reference from the view V_CAPDES to the table T_CAPDES, in the node 'Base Tables'.
(4) Modify the table T_CAPDES in the database, e.g. add a column, drop a column or change the datatype of a column.
(5) When you Capture Design the table T_CAPDES, the user receives the following information in the Message Window:
"CDS-15334 Warning: The Table T_CAPDES already exists in the Repository. NOMERGE_AND_SAC Rule selected => the captured property values will not replace the existing property values in the repository..."
The modifications in the table T_CAPDES are not visible in DE: Capture Design has not been executed for this table.
Probably this warning will be generated because of some Capture Design preferences.
A workaround is, to delete the table definition T_CAPDES in Designer and to Capture Design this table again from the database. But a major disadvantage of this workaround is, that the reference from the view definition V_CAPDES will be lost.
Bottom line: I need some more information about the Capture Design preferences in Designer?
Thanks a lot!

Timecode lost after captured

I read on a post about someone having the same issue with FCE where after I capture the timecode does not show and it goes back to 00:00:00. I saw on the post that I can download a plug in called "Timecode Display" I went to the website and tried to download the plug in and only got a pdf doc. Does anyone know how I can do this?
Thank you

Make sure FCE/FCP is shut down.
Then put the document here:- HD>Library>Application Support>Final Cut Express Support and put it in the Plugins folder.
And it should be an FxScript document not a .pdf

Audio lost after switching platforms

I purchased a fifth gen. ipod from a friend in a dire spot who used it with a windows platform. Everything worked well for him. After synching it with my MacBook, the video, and visual displays work fine, however, when the headphones are plugged in all I hear is a soft static. I have reset, and restored it several times to no avail. I have found a few people online with similar problems, but no one knows how to fix it. Any ideas?

If you get the same problem with another earphones, then it will be a hardware issue for the iPod.

Audio out of sync in premiere pro cs6 after capturing

Hi, some of my footages are out of audio sync after capturing.
I have an imac with 3.4 Ghz intel i7 processor, 16gig ram, ssd card ( august 2012)
I have a sony hvr-z1 with tape.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Good morning Lynn,
I doubt this will help, but whenever I have issues importing tapes, I try
something else. I double check the software's manual because
sometimes, even if I have done the same thing several times, I add
or miss something. If that does not work I close the program and restart
the computer and camcorder and try again ... with a different tape. If
that doesn't work I use a different program. I use an old HP workstation
I paid $99 for on Ebay that's running XP and I capture with Scenalyzer.
Then I copy file to a USB drive and input to Premiere. Sorry, I figure the
problem is me, not the hardware or software and it usually is me because
when the next project comes along PP usally imports fine.

Metadata in Bridge CS3 lost after editing NEF file in Capture NX2

Entered keywords and metadata in Bridge CS3, edited NEF file in Capture NX2 and then all metadata in Bridge got lost even if I did not edit any metadata in Capture.
Original Bridge metadata are still saved in XMP file but Bridge does not show them nor can search or sort photos by them.
Is it a Bridge bug or is it connected with any settings?
Win XP, Bridge CS3 2.1.1.9, Capture NX2 2.2.0, Nikon D300
Will appreciate any help, thanks a lot.

First I renamed photos in Bridge - sidecar XMP files were created with the new filename already, added some keywords and metadata in Bridge. Edited photo in Capture but not changed the name again - the result was the Bridge does not show edited metadata and keywords anymore even all those info are still saved in sidecar XMP file. Capture apparently does not change XPM in any way.
It looks like all the problems are connected with renaming files in Bridge before editing them in Capture as if Bridge cannot read XMP after Capture added its own info in NEF file.

Audio and video out of sync after capture from Canon

Help for a newbie please? I have a Canon XHA1S and have a problem after capturing HD video. After capturing a 40 minute clip, the audio and video are out of sync. Seems like there is about a 3 second difference. The entire clip is like that in the source window; I made a couple of quick edits and have the same problem in the program window. Tried exiting and re-opening PP, but that didn't help. I'm running PP in CS6 on an iMac 3.4 GHz i7 with 8G of ram. Thanks!

I have NOT used it, but many say to try this for HDV capture http://strony.aster.pl/paviko/hdvsplit.htm

Lost audio files after saving.

I lost my audio files after saving in Logic X and now my project file has the extension .logicx on it and my audio files are nowhere to be seen. I made some changes to the project, moved the file to another folder, then they asked if I wanted to replace the other file with the new and I said yes not thinking that it would matter. Is there any way that my audio files are still out there somewhere? And no I don't have time machine hooked up.
Thanks.

if you replaced that file.. then you have lost it's contents as they have all been replaced with the one you copied over... and as you have no backups you cannot, as they say.. un-scramble the egg...
Finally start making backups as soon as possible...
As the old saying goes...
