Audio settings with Prism video converter?

Having received some excellent advice around using Prism to convert my Vob files I now find that I am not getting the Audio transferred. I am using the DV encoder pal settings as the video compressor and the dv audio as the sound compressor. Any suggestions as to what i am doing wrong?
Thanks

Where did you hear about converting VOBs to DV AVI, using Prism? Was it from Steve Grisetti's FAQ or elsewhere?
Although his FAQ mentions some details of the conversion, he does not mention the audio setting. So, I decided to download Prism and experiement with its audio sets,  DV Audio vs Uncompressed setting. Never again. The conversion was not all that quick for the 20 minute DVD from which I was trying to rip the VOBs. The killer was that Prism dealt a knockout punch to my Premiere Elements 4 and 7. After the Prism download and VOB to DV AVI conversion, opening Premiere Elements 4 or 7, clicking on Get Media/Files & Folders, followed by clicking on the DV AVI or any other video file, resulted in the program getting wiped away, leaving me with my computer Desktop.
I use MPEG Streamclip for ripping VOBs from DVD-VIDEO. It does an excellent job and really is quick.

It does the job, hard or easy ones.
If you need detailed step by step, please let me know.
If you can work with Prism and your Premiere Elements is not being blown away, you could experiment with the audio set DV Audio vs the uncompressed one. You did not say what setting that you were using.
Please let us know the outcome.

  • Help. Incompatibility with Lion Video Converter ADVCmini GrassValley. What to do?

    Help ...
    Hello.
    I do not know if I am turning to the right place.
    Wednesday through the Alps Store, I bought the video converterADVCmini of Glass Valley, since they sold it compatible for myiMac. Friday I arrived.
    I open the box, connect all the cables, insert USB cable in hisdoor, plug in my video ready, I press the record button and what I see?
    Video images that lose frames. A total crap.
    What I say, tuttociò and normal?
    To me it seems not.
    The product is the video converter for Mac ADVCmini GrassValley serial number ADVCmini EBC-1110558
    I bought an iMac 27 OS Lion in August (which I'm regrettinghaving bought, because I can not capture analog video) with theupdated version of OS X Lion.
    I wanted to ask what can I do to solve this problem?
    If there are no settings or configurations that do not know.
    Let me know.
    Thank you.

    Oh, I know about the Disney issues. I just like to use my Roku to watch HD videos from Vimeo on my HDTV. It depends on the footage. If it has to be pristine, then Vimeo might not be the best choice, but for most of my footage, it is good enough. Most of the people I show my vacation videos to are friends and family so I just keep the video private and nobody bothers me about it. So far at least

  • Converted VOB file to mpeg with Freemake Video Converter and still not able to load same file in Premiere CS6

    I have this project where I needed to change the audio part from a dvd so first tried to load VOB file but Adobe Premiere did not support VOB file so then used Freemake Video Convert tool to convert in to mpeg file so that I can import in premiere timeline. Still no success so I guess its not supported either.

    Maybe you are missing some codec. CS6 does support mpeg.

  • Any experience with Aunsoft Video Converter for Mac

    I have a Panasonic Lumix FZ100 camera, and I am unable to download my High Definition movies from the camera to my Mac.  I have tested out the Aunsoft Video Converter.  Is this the best programme?
    I can also get this bundled with a DVD ripper.  Will this work on my Mac, and can it convert or rip foreign DVDs (actually PAL but formatted for UK)?

    I am using some Aunsoft programs. Hope my information helps somehow.
    The Aunsoft Video Converter for Mac is a nice program. I usually use it to convert my videos (AVCHD .mts format) that shot with my Panasonic camcorder to the Apple ProRes format for editing in Final Cut Pro X. Sometimes I also convert differnt videos to the MOV or MP4 format to watch on my idevices (iPad, iPhone, Apple TV, Macbook). The converter program worked nicely.
    It seems your Panasonic Lumix FZ100 camera also shoots video in the AVCHD (.mts) format. If you want to convert your video footages with Aunsoft converter you need firstly transfer the video files from your camera to Mac using the USB cable that comes along with your camera. Then load the videos from your computer into the video converter. The .mov 

  • How to change sharing settings with no video?

    I have a macbook pro that does not have any sort of video output.  Unfortunately remote login/screen sharing/ssh are all disabled and my version of realvnc is apparently just below the one that works with Lion causing the realvnc window on the remote server to crash when I attempt to connect.
    I have hooked the hard drive up to my desktop (windows 7 x64) and have attempt to make the hard drive a vmware installation, but I have not succeeded with that at all. I have made it where I can view the partition in windows using MacDrive, but I am unable to change any of the system files and I'm not even sure if I could change preferences this way.
    Is there anything I can do to enable remote login?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Let me say to start with, that with no video output, some of what I'm about to suggest is guess work.
    1.  Tap away at f1 as soon as you press the power button - this should launch the Bios Menu.
    2.  Press the right arrow One time - this should hopefully select the Advanced tab.
    3.  Press the down arrow twice and hit Enter - this should open the sub-menu for the Primary Video Adapter.
    4.  Press the down arrow One time and hit Enter - this should select the PCI-E option.
    5.  Press f10 and hit Enter to save this setting.
    Let me know

  • 1,000 menu items - each selection plays unique audio clip with same video

    Hi all,
    We're familiar with playing different audio tracks based on a menu selection - but we have a large number of clips for this project... so, here's our question:
    A viewer of our 30 minute dvd throws it in the player and selects the city they live. We want to have about 1,000 city names they can choose from.
    Based on their selection, (eg: Los Angeles) the DVD will play and then at 7 different points during playback, we need the name "Los Angeles" inserted/played along the main audio track.  If someone selects Portland, then Portland would be spoken in that spot instead, etc. 
    In terms of audio files, we have the one main audio that is the same for all menu selections, except for the spots where the city goes, it is just blank.
    We have recorded 1,000 unique audio clips of just the city name we want to include . (1 to 2 seconds long)
    What's the best way to insert the audio where we need it during playback - or is it even possible? (non-blu ray).  There is audio just before and after the point where the city name has to go, so the timing during playback is critical. (no pause or hiccup when inserting.)
    We thought about outputting 1,000 unique audio tracks (each 30 minutes long) that include the full audio along with the city, but we seem limited in the number of audio tracks on the Encore timeline (at least based on our limited authoring experience - is there a way to get more clips in encore beyond the # of audio tracks it allows?)
    In reading other posts, it seems we can set markers along the main audio track, dump all our city clips on a handful of audio tracks and have them pull in where needed but it seems it will cause the dvd to pause when doing this, and make for an interrupted viewing experience. Is that true?
    Any ideas/thoughts are greatly appreciated...
    kay

    Let's see if someone can tell us how this might be done, but I say the answer is "no."
    First, DVDs are made for playing on TVs as programs, not as interactive media. You pick one audio track, and that is all you get. To do what you want (the main audio track with one of a thousand names spoken also), you need a thousand audio tracks.
    Even if it were possible, I think the number of menu choices (max 36 buttons on a single 4:3 menu) and the max 1 gig of menu on a disk, and if not those, the max 99 vts per disk (and for Encore which uses 1 vts per timeline, a  huge task to figure out how to make all those clips into chapters on timelines) etc.

  • Audio issue with Youtube video

    I am creating some videos to upload to Youtube. I am having a problem with audio. I am creating and uploading using Adobe Premiere CC and Media Encoder. When I upload the video to Youtube, I have no issues. The problem I am facing is when I play it on mobile phone, I get now audio tracks (vocal) playing through the phones speaker. I do get the audio track I rendered through After Effects. However, I can hear the vocals On a PC, Ipad etc. I can hear the vocals through a headphone plugged into the phone or via bluetooth. I am using the H.264 codec with youtube 1080 settings. Any suggestions and yes I have tried a different phone to see if it was and issue with the phone.

  • Apple TV Audio Issues with itunes Videos

    Hi Guys,
    i am really hoping someone can help me with this as its driving me crazy and i cant seem to find anyone else with a similiar issue in the vast rececess of the interenet. Up in my Studio i have a 2010 imac with everything up to date in terms of updates, hooked up to that i have my lacie external hardrive that contains all my tv shows and films that i have ripped from dvds using Handbrake on apple TV settings.
    Downstairs i have a 3rd generation apple TV hooked up to my Sony TV via HDMI, the apple TV is connected directly to a network port in the wall and so is the imac, I use the computer tab on apple TV to watch the films and shows stored on my lacie on my TV downstairs and everything works beautifuly EXCEPT every now and then i will add a new show or film to my itunes and for some reason my apple TV doesnt like it very much!
    for example; i have ripped and converted three seasons of father ted to my hardrive and added it to my  itunes, it plays perfectly on my imac using itunes, but when i click to view it on the apple TV downstairs the audio has been sped up! the picture is running at normal speed... i have also had a few shows play fine on the imac and yet when they play on apple TV the audio is about 3 seconds ahead of the picture.
    Its very frustrating as its random and i cant find a solution to it, and i can normally figure these things out! i have tried:
    - reconverting the shows and adding to itunes
    - deleting from itunes, resetting apple TV and itunes and adding them again
    - looking for any similarities in the files affected
    im getting NOTHING!
    any ideas or help would be massively appriciated as im at a loss as to what to try next!
    Thanks in advance
    Jim

    Managed to solve this problem myself, it turns out that the files that were causing issues had two audio tracks attached, when the file is loaded i press and hold the middle button to bring up the options, from there press right to the middle tab and change the audio from surround to normal and it plays at normal speed, i have no idea why it was doing this but i can now watch ALL my material finally! hopefully this helps someone else!

  • Interlacing an audio track with a video track

    hey all...
    wodnering how i would go about
    interlacing an audio track
    over like a 4 minute video track.
    i've tried copy the audio in another QT window and pasting it in the video window, but it always ends up the video track without audio for 0 to 4 minutes, then the video is over a plain white visual with the audio playing for minutes 5 to 9.
    wondering how to make each line up with teach other
    so the audio runs along with the audio
    thanks all
    dave

    Open the video document, select all, then use Copy. Now open the audio document, select all and use "Add to Selection and Scale." The video track will be added as a new track in the audio document and its duration will be scaled to match the audio duration. Scaling the video instead of the audio is easier for QT to carry out and will not leave problems like the altered pitch you would get if you scaled the audio.

  • Problems With Creative Video Converter: iTunes

    Hi,
    I have recently been trying to convert some video files i got off of iTunes to a format compatable with the Zen 8g. It keeps saying that the conversion is successful, but when I play the video files on my player the entire video is just a gray box. Some videos won't even go through, they just fail with the converter. Thank you for your help.

    Hey I'm having the same problem, and thought that maybe we'd get more help if a few people had this happening? It won't even install for me, when the camera is almost done, the camera beeps twice to say its on and then my computer turns blue and dies. i dont really like that screen, so if anyone can fix it or tell me what to do?

  • Work flow for syncing separate Audio files with Video files in FCP

    It may be too late for me to use this workflow that I want with my current project, but I need to figure out what it is anyway for future reference.
    Right now I'm editing a movie which is near completion. When we recorded the movie, the camera's deck recorded reference audio from the sound guy at 48k @ 16bit. This audio also went through an additional set of preamps which added a small amount of noise. So we don't want to use the reference audio because of it's low resolution and less clean audio. The sound guy recorded straight to his deck at 48k @ 24bit, besides the better resolution, his audio is noticeably better.
    The camera deck and 'clapper' (I think that's what you call it) were not connected or synced. So the video files and the soundsguy's audio files are slightly different lengths, but at least have a 'clap sound' to manually sync to. And I don't mean that the audio and video files won't play in sync with each other, I mean that the soundguy always started recording before the camera, so his audio files have slightly different start and stop times.
    Could I have synced the audio files with the video files before I started editing this project? If so, could it have been in the way that the soundguy's audio would be connected to my video files while editing? What would that procedure have been?
    My current workflow right now is I have my finished sequence, I change the bit rate to 24 in Sequence Settings, and start manually dragging the soundguy's files to the sequence for every little edited clip. This is going to take forever, there are 99 scenes in this movie. Anyway, at the end of the day these sequences are exported as .omf files and imported into Pro Tools for audio post production.
    I was not thinking to figure this out before I started editing the movie, this is unfortunate, a newb move in a decent production.
    Anyway, I don't know if there is a standard for this situation or if I just opened up a can of worms for many possible workflows. Please comment if you have experience in this area or please refer me to any reading material.
    Thanks for your time!
    -Monty

    The normal workflow (besides manually syncing up before editing!)
    is to have ' some ' way of auto syncing the clips.
    So you must have common timecode.
    With external audio, you can slave the cam's TC to the TC output of the BWF recorder.
    Then you can use BWF / QT merge (one of my apps) to sync them, or use Sync 'n Link.
    (another third party application)
    If it is not possible cause you're shooting with a cam without a TC input, you can record the TC output on one of the audio tracks of your cam, and use FCPauxTC reader to decode the beeps and translate that to QT TC, and again use the former tricks to sync them.
    It is difficult when you have never done it, but very easy once you get the hang of it, and it saves a huge amount of time to do it right from the start.
    Have a look at the FCP aux TC reader here:

  • How do I sync multiple audio clips to one video clip?

    I have video (with stereo audio from a camera mic), and for each take, there are also four additional mono audio tracks that line up with it. It was footage shot outdoors in the city, so I guess the filmmakers just wanted to have as many options for sound mixing as possible given how much background noise there would be. I have tried selecting the video clip and the four audio clips at once and selecting "synchronize clips," but it doesn't work. It spits out a synchronized clip that seems to have converted two of the mono tracks into one stereo track... and then disregarded the remaining two mono tracks. It's a mess. It's likely someone else will fine tune the audio once I'm done cutting the video together... but I'd like to get all the audio tracks properly synced from the start. Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Do you mean manual syncing? I've been reading this thread about workaround, which aren't working for me: http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/344/21236
    But the question they are asking is the same one I am asking. Isn't this a typical situation, having multiple mics for one camera? For example, if someone filmed a concert with one camera but used both the camera audio, and ambient mic, and a mix from the board, then that would be 3 audio tracks with 1 video track. I'm in a similar situation, and I'm finding it hard to believe that FCPX isn't equipped to edit this way. There must be some way to get one video clip (with reference audio) to sync with four audio tracks.
