Audio missing from part of final dvd when played in dvd player.

IT IS CRUNCH TIME! I'm creating a yearbook. The first eight chapters (Dedication, Staff and class portraits) do NOT have audio when I play the burned dvd in my player, although 2 submenus (Sports and Activities) do have audio. iDVD is updated to 6.0.3.

Thank you for responding, Bengt.
I had students create music on Garage Band and they are in aiff. stored on iTunes on the Hard Drive, which has 41.1 GB available. Running Quicktime 7.1.6. The killer is that my movie runs fine with music on all scenes on the computer and only the first portion (Scenes 1-7) has no music when I play the burned DVD in the player at home. (Tried other DVD players, too) I did the entire burning process twice thinking that the encoding would solve the problem. No such luck.
I noticed in the DVD troubleshooting guide about audio that 6.0.1 solved the problem. If I have 6.0.3, does that mean that 6.0.1 is included, or should I download that software update?
Sorry, I'm a novice with technology and the school tech support for my k-8 school is limited.
Thank you so much for your help!

Why is audio missing from movie

why is audio missing from movie

I think I may have confused you a little bit, sorry. Hope this might be easier to follow.
1. Copied nieces VHS tape to DVD discs. Tape runs approximately 2hr. 39min.
2. Put first part on work copy 1. This consisted of the lead up to the ceremony and the ceremony itself, ending with still shots of the wedding party, in the park. About 1hr. 1min.
3. Put second part on work copy 2. This consisted of the wedding reception, beginning to end. About 1hr 38min. No possibility of overlapping content.
4. Ran both work copy 1 and work copy 2 on the VCR that's hooked up to the TV. (Not the Toshiba copy machine). Both ran through, beginning to end with no glitches.
5. Opened Adobe Premiere Elements and loaded work copy #1 so as to make three finished copies, one for bride and groom, one for bride's parents, one for groom's parents.
6. When placed on the timeline, contents of work copy 1 had no audio for VTS_01_1.VOB while VTS_01_2.VOB and VTS_01_3.VOB were whole.
7. Tried for several days to eliminate the problem with no success. A.P.E. showed file sizes of .99GB, .99GB and 47MB respectively. The 47MB is actually about 2 minutes of still pictures of       the wedding party. I was not going to attempt to burn the project until correcting the audio problem.
8. Wrote in to the community forum and happily received your response. Tried every thing you offered without success. Though I am thankful for all your time and effort. While nothing worked       so far, I have learned a few things and will retain my notes so as to keep this information at hand. (Don't know how you're able to maintain all that info).
9. At this point, in view of the results of step #4, I thought to try Windows DVD Maker to see what developed. Loaded work copy 1 into that program, which recognized the audio in the first clip       (VTS_01_1.VOB). I did not run the work copy, beginning to end, in this program. But I felt that as long as the audio was present in the first clip, this program would allow me to burn the           copy. When the burn button was pushed, I received the error message "Will Not Fit", and the duration of 30 min for clip 1, 30 min. for clip 2 and 25 hours and 30 min. for clip 3. Clip 3 being       the 2 minutes of still pictures. After trying unsuccessfully to remedy this problem it was time to try a different approach.
10. Opened A.P.E. and loaded work copy 2 onto the timeline. Successfully made three finished copies of this disk in a short period of time.
11. Took the VHS tape back to the Toshiba to make another copy (work copy 1A) of the first segment.
12. Played copy 1A in the TVs VCR and it played fine, no glitches.
13. Opened A.P.E. and put work copy 1A on the Timeline. This time there was audio in clip 1, which could be seen on the audio line, but it was the audio from work copy 2. This, even though       I had deleted the files from work copy 2.
14. Accepted the fact that this has become a career. Can't imagine what you're thinking. Since beginning this endeavor I have become much older and grouchier. My dog will no longer walk         with me. Neighbors go back in the house when they see me coming. Oh, and my wife sticks out her tongue and makes funny noises whenever I turn my back.

Thanks for all this information, T.
So why are you editing a 1440x1080 video in a 1920x1080 project? If this is AVCHD footage, it's very important to use the right project settings.
That has no effect on your audio, of course. But it could affect your video quality when you output your file.
That say, can you explain what you mean by "Audio missing from save project"?
Do you mean that you don't hear the audio in Premiere Elements -- or that you don't hear it when you output, say, an MOV or WMV file?
What file format are you exporting and what are you playing soundless this file on?
And, finally, is there no audio whatsoever, or is only some audio (music, for instance) missing from your output?

I am trying to burn DVDs from iPhoto slideshows. My pictures number in the hundreds and we know that iPhoto captures 99 and then "starts over". This plays fine from the Mac Book but glitches arise on the DVD when playing it on a DVD player. Any suggestions on how to overcome the 99 "Chapter limitation" that IPhoto has? Has anyone heard or tried an app called Vilisoft? I read good things but I am not sure if it will do what I want.
Jim

Then use multipel 99 picture slideshows.
You can have up to 8 or 9 slideshows per menu. If you add a sub menu reduce that by 1 and add 8 more to the sub menu. The top menu can have links to up to 8 or so submenus (depends on the theme) and each submenu can have up to 8 or so slideshows.
However, converting a very large slideshow to a QT movie as Terence suggested does not envoke the 99 slide limit in iDVD. It just becomes a single video/movie file. So you should not have a problem with exporting at the large size, 720 x 540,
and dragging the resulting file into the iDVD menu being sure to avoid any drop zones.

I used Roxio VHS to DVD for Mac (have iMac with Snow Leopard) and the audio does not synch with the video when playing in iMovie. Any suggestions to fix?

I used Roxio VHS to DVD for Mac (have iMac with Snow Leopard) and the audio does not synch with the video when playing in iMovie. Any suggestions to fix?

Thanks for the reply. I tried playing with detaching the audio in iMovie, but with 20+ hours of video to correct, it would take too long. After 28 hours, Corel/Roxio tech support replied that it is a known bitrate mismatch problem and they have no real fix. I strongly suggest not to buy this product.

No sound when playing burned DVD with Windows Media Player

Hello!
I made a 10 minute movie which I burned , tested and delivered today.
But it turns out that when playing the DVD with WMP, there is no sound.
I had tested the movie playing it with powerDVD, and it worked as it should. When playing it with a normal DVD player and TV it works allright.
But I had not tested it with WMP. And sure enough, when playing it with WMP there is no sound!
The ones who will show the DVD will do it from a computer to a video projector, and maybe they don't have a "proper" DVD program installed. But I heard that there was sound when playing with "VLC" which is a relief.
But I feel the need to get to the bottom of why there is no sound with WMP? Any clues?

In NTSC-land, one has but two choices: PCM/WAV or DD AC3, which is a particular "flavor" of MPEG. In PAL-land, one does have the option of MPEG (not DD AC3) as an option, but that seems to be falling out of favor.
When MS was re-tooling WMP, they wanted to add back the functionality of commercial (pressed/replicated) DVD's, but sought to limit any burned DVD's. Do not know what the mindset is now, so much could have changed with a few iterations of WMP. I have to admit that I just do not reach for it that often.
In the Project, or Disc, menus, one can tell En which Audio Transcoding to use. As John T, suggests, I would definitely do a test with PCM/WAV, and X my fingers.
If your client(s) is/are set on WMP as the player, there is hopefully a scheme that you can get to work. Also, remember that some older versions of WMP might not play the DVD at all, unless one finds the right plug-in, that basically hacked the intended setup in those older versions. Just like when delivering to a client, and not knowing their systems' calibration, or setup, trying to cover every base in a particular player software might involve a lot of work, and prayer.
Good luck,
Hunt

No sound when playing a DVD on my Lenovo 3000 N200 (0769-A44)

Hi,
I recently got an N200 under Vista Home Premium. Everything is doing well, except an annoying problem with PowerDVD 7 which is factory-installed. When I play a DVD with PowerDVD, there is no sound. With Windows Media player, MediaCenter and even MediaPlayer Classic, the sound is there. Only with PowerDVD is there no sound.
Any hint on how to solve this ?
Thanks !
.merle1.
Update 2008-04-30 : the problem only appears when playing commercial DVD that rely on AC3 codec for sound. For recorded DVD that use MPEG2-Layer2, sound is OK. Seems to be a limitation of PowerDVD OEM. However, if there is a solution ...

Thanks for sharing this. For the moment, and until someone finds a solution, I am relying on WMP and also on an opensource player that can play DVD, Media Player Classic :

Very easy to use. May be it will solve your problem with the DVD player noise ? There is also an excellent media play, that plays DVD, and that I intend to install : JetAudio 7, from Cowon.

Exported slideshow from Iphoto11 to IDVD 7.12 so I could burn DVD for play on DVD player. Fine but show stops 1/2way through because DVD has 2 chapters. How do I eliminate chapters?

I exported slideshow from Iphoto 11 to IDVD 7.12 so I could burn DVD for play on DVD player. Fine, but then when playing on DVD player show stops about 12 way and starts over. Seems there are 2 chapters in show. I wan t show to play straight through until end. How do I elimiante chapters or solve problem. Thanks. Bob Low

Try this workflow:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
Play the disk image with DVD Player and see if you get the same start over half way thru.
Did you create the slideshow in iPhoto in the slideshow mode?
or were you in an album and then used the Share ➙ iDVD menu option? What I'm trying to find out is if the slideshow in iDVD is a movie file or an iDVD slideshow with the photos from iPhoto? If it's the latter how many photos in the slideshow?

FC/e is based upon the Quicktime-engine; so, on 'Export using QT', you'll get all codecs & settings.
but which one..
due to sheer popularity, YouTube became a 'standard' - I'm happy with the convenience, YT and the 'embed'-code offers - excellent quality, automatic adjusted to the watchers connection&hardware.
my export settings are 720p, h264, 6MBit/sec - gives a - imho! - superb quality.
(example of a 'screen-test' from my latest project CLICK )
for creating so-called 'flash video'/.flv, you need 3rd party apps.
Sorenson Squeeze is more of an pro-tool, .. you need some background knowledge to get noticeable 'better' quality.
.. and the question is: are you willing to pay $.$$$ for that 0.x% more quality .. ? does your source offers such a 101% quality, which needs such affords?
if bandwidth is an issue, because you're hosting on your own servers, consider the free codec xh264, you can install as a free QT-plug-in.. with low or super-low bitrates, it offers a superior quality compared to h264 ...

No sound when playing a DVD...

I replaced my DVD ROM with an HP dvd 1040i DVD R/RW and there is no sound when playing a DVD? I loaded the Nero 7 essentials software that came with it. My system is a HP compac dc7600 Small Form Factor. I am running Windows XP-Pro and IE8.

Hi:
Interesting...
Does your onboard audio work when listening to music files or playing a video on the internet?
If you have sound normally but not thru the DVD player, try this free DVD playing software. I use it all the time. See if that fixes the audio problem.

Movies stall or hang up when playing on DVD player

I've used both IDVD 5 and iDVD 6 but the problem continues. DVD's tend to "hang up" or "stick" at multiple scenes when playing on a DVD player. The same problem occurs on all sorts of DVD player of family and friends. This issue does not happen when playing the DVD on a computer. The movies are created in iMovie and the sent to iDVD with Themes added and then burned. I've tried disc immaages vs a burn - same result.
Any ideas what is causing this problem and how to overcome?

My iMac G5 is 2 months old, so probably not an issue. I am currently using Memorex 16X DVD's, but get the stall, hang up and freeze problem when playing on DVD players. This is not an issue playing back on computers. I started making movies on a Dell a year ago using Microsoft Movie Maker and experienced the same problem. Totally different systems, different applications...but the same issue.
All sorts of makes DVD players both in the U.S. and England and Canada have problems playing my DVDs.
I have tried saving as a disc image and the burning, but not a solution.
Is Toast better than using Apple's iDVD or disk utility to burn DVD's. Is there any way to control burn speed? Does Toast allow different burn speeds? Should I use 16X DVD's or 8X or whatever?

Audio disappears from part of clip

When I watch an mp4 in the timeline the audio cuts out part way through, as if it is missing from the file. When I check the original file in any other program there is audio all the way through. But in Premier, the audio is missing from a large chunk of the clip. The first time this happened simply clicking the level adjustment suddenly caused the audio to come back for the missing chunk.
Now it's happening with another clip. Halfway through or so audio suddenly drops and I see no waveforms for that chunk. Adjusting levels does nothing. Restarting a couple times didn't help. What can I try?

Thank you for responding, Bengt.

Why is audio missing from MP4 video?

I am using - - Adobe Premiere Elements 10, Windows OS7
I have 11GBs of high quality (1.5GB = 15 min) mp4 video clips and I would like to edit and burn a couple of DVDs. When I import the clips they look fine, but there is no audio. (Yes, I have audio elsewhere on my computer and can hear these clips when I use any other player.)
I tried converting them to .avi with Format Factory and I *can* hear them when I import to Adobe, but they are now "frozen" or "jumpy" and it is very difficult to navigate through the clips because the Play/Pause button has quite a time lag before responding.
Should I convert to some other format? I'd like to keep as much quality as possible. I did convert them all to VOBs and made a "test" disc, but it dropped 11GB down so low that it will all fit on a 4.7GB disc. I'd rather make 2 discs and keep the quality up (though the one I made looks and sounds pretty good).
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Let me recap to make sure we are in sync on this.
Knowing what you started with and the video properties as they evolve through needed conversion....
You come telling us and demonstrating to us that you have source video
AVCHD.mp4 (1920 x 1080 @ 29.97 frames per second) and that has MPEG1 audio.
When you import that into Premiere Elements 10 Windows, you get video but no audio.
The destination for that Timeline is NTSC_Widescreen Dolby DVD.
In terms of setting the correct project settings, it would be important to know if you have
interlaced or progressive video. But, since you not hear audio at that point, more
important/pressing things to pursue.
Aside from the pressing audio issue, at this point the choice of project preset would still be
NTSC/AVCHD/Full HD1080i30 (if you have interlaced video)
or
NTSC/DSLR/1080p/DSLR 1080p30@ 29.97 (if you have progressive video).
Either way, we need a 1920 x 1080 frame size project preset to match the 1920 x 1080 frame size of your source so that
when you are in the Edit area you can edit your video in the correct space there. The final export setting is another matter. You
should not be using a NTSC DV Widescreen project preset for a 1920 x 1080 video import.
AVCHD.mp4 with MPEG1 audio (no Premiere Elements sound) to ????.avi with ???? audio (unstable in Premiere Elements but with sound)
Conversion of the problem file sounds like a reasonable next step. And, you indicate that you do convert
to an ".avi" file which has then has audio with the video in Premiere Elements 10, but the file is highly
unstable in Premiere Elements 10. But, when I ask what video compression goes with the .avi wrapper, you
wrote
I just drag/drop the files to "Convert All to (whatever)" and the software does it.
All .avi files are not created equal. And, AVCHD.avi, if that is what you ended up with, is highly unstable, and for most will
not import into Premiere Elements. So, now the pressing questions include:
a. what is the video compression and audio compression and other properties of this .avi file with the stability problems in Premiere Elements 10
b. again, what are you setting as the project preset to match the properties specific to the source .avi.
Now back to the present
If you use Format Factory you should have control over your conversion settings. AVCHD.mp4 is a stable format for Premiere Elements. I suspect that the MPEG1 is problem. So, we agree conversion is the way.
I would suggest taking the time to set the settings for your converter so that you produce AVCHD.mp4 (1920 x 1080 @ 29.97 progressive frames per second) and use AAC Stereo for the audio. Then bring that file into Premiere Elements 10 with the project preset of
NTSC
DSLR
1080p
DSLR 1080p30@ 29.97
and proceed, ending with the Share/Disc/DVD disc with preset = NTSC_Widescreen_Dolby DVD.
Since this project is destined for DVD-VIDEO widescreen on DVD, you could use your converter to produce NTSC DV AVI Widescreen and then import that into a Premiere Elements 10 project with the project preset =
NTSC
DV Widescreen
and proceed, ending with the Share/Disc/DVD disc with preset = NTSC_Widescreen_Dolby DVD.
As for disc capacity, the standard DVD disc 4.7 GB/120 minutes is in reality 4.38 GB. And the DVD disc double layer single sided 8.5 GB/240 minutes is in reality 7.38 GB. When you get to the burn dialog Quality Area (just before you hit Burn), look to see the values for Space Required and Bitrate (have a check mark next to "Fit Content to Available Space"). If you see a Bitrate reading below the max 8.00 Mbps, then go to the DVD double layer single sided disc or use two DVD standard discs.
Do your intended viewers have players that support playback of DVD double layer single sided discs?
Please review.
I will try to make the reply not so long next time. I wanted to cover all the bases this time.
We will be watching for your progress.
Any quesitons or need clarification on anything, please do not hesitate to ask.
Thank you.
