Audio problems after exporting out of iMovie

Aloha!
I have a 48 minute movie created in imovie with lots of audio, clips and transitions. It works perfectly when I preview or play it in iMovie. When I try to share it to iDvd, export to iDvd, or to save it as a Quicktime movie, it looks great for several minutes, then the audio tracks get messed up. The correct audio is there, but overlayed on it is snippets from farther into the project, or whole tracks from later in the project, or places where the audio drops out completely. I spent about 70 hours creating this movie and really want to burn it to DVD so I can play it on the big screen. I did burn one version to dvd, and it looked and sounded great - until the audio problems began... any help would be greatly appreciated.
In Garage Band there is a feature where you can consolidate your bits into one track - should I be doing something in iMovie after I finish it before I export it?

what kind of speed changes do you mean? If you mean using some clips in slo-mo (with the sound dropped out) then yes I used a LOT of them... but they are also working fine for the first several minutes...

  • Audio problem after exporting videos from imovie.

    When I export videos I've made in imovie, the audio becomes distorted. Clips that I have silenced, start to play during clips that they don't belong to. Any fixes?

    Hi
    How did You Export videos ? To what and into what format ?
    If to iDVD then
    • First I would trash iMovie pref files and iDVDs likevice
    • Then in iMovie - Share to Media Browser and as Large (Not HD or other res.)
    • Then in iDVD from Media button Movies import it.
    • Then test play in iDVD Preview
    • If OK then - Save as a DiskImage
    • Test this with DVD-player tool
    • Still OK
    • Then burn it to DVD either via iDVD or if You don't wat to re-calculate - use Disk Util tool.
    (set down burn speed to x4)

  • Audio problems after exporting

    I have created a 43 minute iMovie with very, very heavy editing.
    I love my movie, and until recently, it would play back fine within the application.
    (but now, not even this works for me anymore.)
    When I export the movie in any format, My audio gets all mixed up.. Random audio clips from other parts of the movie are heard with, or substituted during other parts. It is so frustrating after so much hard work.
    Is there any way to resolve this problem without having to start from scratch?

    Dito! I just worked for months on 45 min movie and the same problem. And the answer is WHAT?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! whats the piont of beat markers and the ability to use all these things and now i have to WHAT??????? go back and try to re edit the speeds? Great I switched to an Apple only to find out BIG mistake. I cannot believe this has not been fixed. Whata joke! I have to get this DVD in the hands of someone by the end of the weekend that might be able to change my life and i have made a GRAVE mistake in intrusting it in a MAC

  • Sound problems after export media in premiere pro cs6

    hello,
    i recently started usining premiere c6 and after exported my project to mpeg-dvd i noticed that sound quality is reasonably lost,  than exported sound  separatedly without video to wav and result was the same bad. The imported sound source was really good, recorded in studio- wav 24 bit 48000. Before i used cs3 and never had such a sound problem after export video.
    thank you very much,
    Poly

    It's difficult to speculate without hearing the original and the export.  Can you upload them?

  • I have Audio problems after 6.1.2 update. What do I do?

    Is anybody else having audio problems after updating to 6.1.2? How do I Fix it?

    No problems here.
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Audio Sync problem after exporting

    App : Imovie
    Device : Ipad 2
    iOS : 4.3.3
    Rushes : MP4 from a FLIP camera
    Audio track : m4a
    The project is around 9 minutes. Sync ok in Imovie. After exporting, the sync is ok in the beginning but loosing it more and more as the movie goes.......i tried all the options on exporting, nothing changes. This is getting me mad......Any solutions ?

    I am assuming this is because the way the flip camera embeds the audio.
    The problem with editing non-iframe video is that it does not have all seperate frames.
    And so the audio is sync in blocks to video.
    I assume that the reason iMovie iOS is stated as only supporting video shot on an iOS device is that this video has a "standard" way to sync audio.
    There are many different ways to encode mp4s.
    Editing a non-Apple iOS standard video may give you these problems.
    So the only real solution I can give is to convert all your video to the same standard as the iPad shoots.
    You should tell Apple here, and ask for a fix:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/imovie_iOS.html
    And also email other editing app creators and ask them to port to the iPad.
    Then you will have more options to edit then just iMovie iOS.

  • Audio dissolve problems after export

    Hello there.
    I have a problem with audio dissolves. If I export the mastermixed file, the is strange and the mixing isn't right. Where I put a audio dissolve in fading in or out the music sometimes is doubled.
    In Premiere, everything sounds fine. When I export in ProRes I get these audio problems. Before the update to 8.1 everything went well.
    Any ideas?
    Best regards,
    Florian.

    premiere CC 2014.1

    I got it. It's the AME export! If I export the file directly with Premiere I have no strange audio probs but if I export the soundfiles or the program file with Media Encoder 2014.1 the dissolves are really bad...

  • Audio sync problems after export

    I've been having this problem occasionally ever since starting to use Premiere Pro CS6, and it's now also happening again in the latest version of CC (just updated to 7.2.2 on W7, 64bit):
    A perfectly synced sequence that plays fine in its rendered preview loses sync with its audio (or the audio with the video) after exporting to mp4. (preset H.264 format). I have tried trouble shooting by deleting all render files, restarted application and computer, played with different media players... to no avail.
    Admittedly the raw footage happens to be a wmv file. Which I know is not ideal. But what bugs me is that everything is perfectly in sync up to the point of creating the export file. That makes no sense. I'm about to counteract this shift now by separating the audio from the video and making up the frame difference manually, but it feels wrong to do that and is a silly hack to something the software shouldn't mess up in the first place.
    Any ideas?

    Holy cow, that was easy. You were right, that worked. Doooh.
    Thanks.

  • Audio issues after exporting

    I've made a 40 minute video of my friends' wedding, which plays beautifully in iMovie, but when I export it, there are some audio issues. I've read other forums and detached all audio before exporting and still the same result.
    1) Part of the opening sequence has a piece of audio (from another part of the video) that runs with some slow motion clips of bride and groom. When I export, the warped, slowed down original audio can be heard in the background. I've tried everything - detach audio and delete the offending piece of original audio to reducing the volume level of the original audio to 0. It's still there after exporting!!!
    2) Maybe as a result of the above, not sure, but once exported, the whole video audio is out of sync by a few seconds. Went back and checked the project and it's all good with all the audio lining up with the clips, but export and it's out of whack
    My friends are hounding me to see the video and I keep stalling, quoting some 'technical issues'.
    Please help!

    Just wanted to let you all know you've saved my sanity by posting on this board. Your solution - while not what I would have guessed in a million years was the problem source - fixed my video. I can't believe it was so simple! Now, if I could only get the hour(s) back where I tried to find the audio track I 'hadn't muted'...

  • Audio problems after battery drained

    Well, my ipod shuffle 2nd gen was working perfectly well. I'm sorry that I left it completely still in my desk for nearly a month... (No one ever touched it during that month)
    After that time, I connected it to my computer, it needed a while (about 5 minutes) before my PC recognized it. iTunes recognized my ipod too, and I can sync music, copy files to and from my ipod. The problem was, when I plugged in the ear-phone, no sound came from my ipod, only some kind of weird noises. At first, I thought it would be my ear-phone's problem, but I tested it carefully with my other Music devices. I'm pretty sure the audio jack had problem, because I could hear disturbed music on my ear-phone. My questions are, why can the audio jack have problem after a month with no-one touch the ipod, and is there any solution for my problems? (I really don't want to use it as a 1GB flash disk...)

    what kind of speed changes do you mean? If you mean using some clips in slo-mo (with the sound dropped out) then yes I used a LOT of them... but they are also working fine for the first several minutes...

  • Poor audio quality after exporting to .MOV.

    Voiceover in my video sounds crystal clear in the timeline but then thin and "rattley" after export when playing back with Quicktime player. Background music on other tracks always seems to be unaffected. Audio export set to AAC, 48 kHZ, Stereo. I must export to a Quicktime .mov format because it's the only file type that I can upload to YouTube without the color quality being distorted after upload. Adobe Updater says all of my programs are updated.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    How did you record the VO? is it a mono or stereo track, how are you viewing the export. Sometimes when just one section of the audio is wrong it is due to audio phase problems, I have not seen this with a vo before but it might be the issue. See:
    Re: 1 of 2 audio tracks missing on certain browsers (h.264)

  • Annoying problem after exporting to itunes

    Hi all,
    After exporting edited music files into itunes from garageband, there is a few seconds of silence at the end of each file. This is annoying to me because I like my music to change immediately after the last note has been played... Any ideas on how to fix this problem/limitation?
    Please note, the files were originally MP3's that I ripped from my personal CD collection. I do not have crossfade playback enabled in itunes.
    Thanks in advance,
    rawbertow789
    P.S. I searched the forums before posting this, but I could have missed something.

    Oh, man. This is the greatest!
    I have had a bunch of songs that have had front and back end silence or other crap that I wanted out and the way I did it was to export the whole thing to Itunes, then open that file in CD spin Doctor, create a track in that cutting the unwanted part(s), then re-save, then delete the original imported songs in Itunes....a very round about and time consuming way to do this.
    I have seen this option, but to me it seemed like the only function was to just repeat the GB song over again. It never occured to me that you could select a "section" and export that.
    This is terrific
    Thanks.

  • Audio problems on export to QT - FCP HD 4.5

    I've seen some posts about audio trouble when exporting a sequence to create a Quicktime file--but the solution, re-render and run Audio Mixdown, isn't working for me. Actually I don't even see an Audio Mixdown option, but I know there used to be, maybe in FCP 3.
    What happens is that in one area, just the music tracks cut out--although it plays just fine in the sequence. Any ideas for FCP HD 4.5? Thanks!
    PowerBook G4 15   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   FCP HD 4.5

    It is located here: SEQUENCE>RENDER ONLY>MIXDOWN.
    That usually solves it.

  • Audio problems when exporting files from Premiere Pro CS5

    I try to post in English.
    I have audio problems in Premiere Pro CS5 when exporting a film.
    I cut an interview. The sound seems not to be synchronized when exporting a file. It doesn´t matter what file format I export. On cutting points the sound is different to the sound I hear in premiere. In premiere the audio sounds very good but in exported file I hear cracks on cutting points.
    When I reimport the audio file an put it in the timeline the synch point is correct but the interview differs about 2 frames to the original audio in premiere.
    The material was filmed on Sony ex3. The files are XDCam HD. I have updated the production suite.
    Thanks for answers
    Frieder

    Also, make sure that you check the box marked "Export Audio" if you want a MP4 extension.

    DESPERATE, i am back on my laptop with a borrowed charger and i plugged my phone into itunes. It now says i have to restore it back to factory settings. Meaning, i will lose all of my contacts, pictures, etc. because i havn't been able to back it up onto my laptop.
    I definitely don't want anything deleted off of my phone. Did any body else have this problem? Is there ANYTHING i can do to refrain from restoring it and losing all of my memory?
      Couldn't you have backed it up to the "iCloud"? or some other cloud based storage before you did the upgrade? If you do not back things up before you upgrade your OS, you are only asking for things to go wrong.
