Audio spectrum and sound not working?

Hello! I've been trying to make a video with a sound spectrum. I've done it once and was trying this time to do it again. I made the spectrum, and set the audio layer to the song I want, but it doesn't work. When i drag the pointer on the bottom the spectrum doesn't even move on the preview. I tried rendering, but that turned out to be a literally silent video and the sound spectrum did NOT work. I was wondering if anyone could help me.

The first thing to try is another source for your audio or your original project. The second thing to check is your system preference settings. If you cannot solve the problem by checking those two items then we need to know and see your composition and timeline with all modified properties of the Audio Spectrum and the Audio layer revealed. Select them both in the timeline and press the U key twice, take a screenshot, and describe in detail how you assembled the composition. It would also be helpful to have the audio layer selected in the Project Panel so we could see the specifications.

  • AUDIODG.EXE hogging 80-100% of CPU and sound not working in Vista . . .

    I posted this on a Microsoft Answers Forum but none of the techs or people reading have been able to help so far.  I'm dying to get to the bottom of this:
    Here is my computer:
    MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum
    AMD Athlon 64 3000+
    2GB RAM
    XFX GEFORCE 6600 GT 128MB DDR3 DUAL DVI & TV OUT (PCI-E)
    200GB WD SATA HDD
    500GB WD HDD in external enclosure via USB2
    NEC ND-3520A 16X DVD±RW Dual Layer DVD Burner
    LG CD Burner
    I've been using Vista Home Premium successfully for some time.  Recently, not too long after I did a clean wipe of my OS, my audio would stop working.  The way it would happen is that everything would work fine until I started iTunes or another audio application and when I would hit play, things would lock up.
    Upon inspection of my system resources, I'm noticing that the audio platform for Vista, via the audiodg.exe, is using close to 100% of my CPU resources, even when the computer is making no sound at all.
    I've had a Sound Blaster Live! card in my computer for some time but I was not using it; I use the Realtek AC'97 audio drivers that are on my motherboard instead.  I thought that the conflict may be the computer wanting to recognize my Sound Blaster, so I took it out of my computer but the problem seems to be worse.
    Are there any BIOS setting that need to be adjusted for my sound to start working again?
    I'm very reliant on the audio processing power of my computer (I'm in the radio industry, part-time) and this is a huge drag on my productivity.
    Any tips would be much appreciated.
    REPLY #1:
    Thank you for using Microsoft Answers forum.  I suggest going to the manufacture of your sound card and download the latest drivers and install them.
    MY RESPONSE:
    Good suggestion.  The problem is this:
    I am running on-board audio.  I have an MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum motherboard which runs "Realtek ALC Series AC97 Audio Driver" and there is no version for Vista. They have a version for Windows 2K/XP and one for Windows XP 64bit.
    Should I use on of those and if not, then what?
    UPDATE (from me):
    I took a chance and found a Realtek AC'97 driver for Vista.
    http://drivers.softpedia.com/progDownload/Realtek-AC-97-Audio-Codec-Driver-Vista-6183-Beta-Download-18114.html
    I went to install it and the install hung.  So, I closed one of the install windows and then the InstallShield app continued like it was working.  So, I hit "Restart my computer".  Well, the reboot hung too.  So, I reset the PC manually.
    When the computer came back up, the sound worked.  Hard to tell if this will fix it for good but it's promising.  Chaotic.  Unpredictable.  Annoying.
    REPLY #2:
    Before you tried updating drivers, did you try rebooting 1st?
    I'm just trying to determine if rebooting your system is what resolved the issue - thank you
    UPDATE II (from me):
    My computer is behaving the same way it was before.  AUDIODG.EXE taking up 80-100% of my CPU and the sound not working.
    Any other ideas?

    Small update: Despite my intelligence, good looks and vast experience I use Google sometimes. To my surprise this file turns out to be a Windows one. Here is someone who is much happier, and since it is some way in my line of thinking I'll quote it, but you might take my previous advice as well:
    http://forums.techarena.in/windows-vista-performance/1012315.htm
    "- Open up msconfig.exe > Manage startup programs.
    - Disable ALL Realtek entries
    - Close msconfig.exe
    - Right-click on the speaker icon > Audio devices > Speakers (properties)
    - Go to the enhancements tab
    - Check the box to disable all audio enhancements
    - Close the menu
    - Right-click on the speaker icon > Recording devices
    - Disable all your microphones (yeah..., the actual problem seems to come
    from voice inputs rendering..)
    - Close the menu
    - Restart your computer"

  • Flickering finder and safari, and sound not working?

    Firstly the screen froze whilst the radio was still playing. I could move the mouse cursor but not click on anything.
    So, I did a safe reboot and the desktop reset.
    Everything now responds to the mouse but Finder is flickering when scrolling and Safari is really flickering - in hte window and address bar.
    The sound is also not working.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks for your time.

    Hi Leroydouglas
    Just been playing with the desktops and found a bunch of open Finder windows along with a window asking me if I wanted to erase the Trash files.
    Seems like they were hiding behind an app window on one of the desktops  (found it by accident as I was scrolling through the desktops using the swipe gesture on my Trackpad).
    I've assigned the Finder to a desktop (desktop 1) and it seems to be OK at the moment (opens new windows and Trash icon works).
    I've tried opening Finder by clicking on the Dock icon in all the desktops and it opens without any problems (you can see it scroll to Desktop 1).  The folders on the desktop I couldn't before now open OK (again in Desktop 1).
    Looks like the quick fix to the problem is to assign Finder to its own Desktop.  I'll be keeping an eye on it  :-)

  • Viewer and sound not working. :-( please help.

    I've used imovie before and it was great but now I've been trying to make a short video and my viewer and sound is not working. I dont know what is different from last time. I would be grateful for any suggestions.

    Do you hear the startup "bong" sound when powering up the iMac?  If you do, that means the speakers work and there is probably something messed up in software or settings.
    First, try resetting PRAM.  This is the procedure.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    Sound volume setting is one of the things stored in PRAM.  If you hear the startup sound after holding down those four keys at startup, then your speakers are probably working now.

  • HP Envy Rove 20 - Windows 10 issues: Hibernation and sound not working

    I upgraded my Envy Rove 20 over the weekend to Windows 10. Issues: 1. When the PC attempts to hibernate the power light stay iluminated and it never switches off (I've left it for 10 mins or so, all hard disk activity has finished). I have to hold down the power button to power it off, then power it up from scratch. I had load of issues with this when I upgraded from Windows 8 to 8.1 and resolved them by installing the HP Wireless Button Driver v1.1.2.1. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing this. It didn't help. 2. The sound on youtube (via Microsoft Edge browser and youtube apps) is broken up and distorted.  Any ideas?  

    I decided to give Win 10 another go as there were a few new drivers available from HP for my device. I've installed all the Windows Updates and latest HP drivers. The results are better than first time around. The sound issue is sorted (I actually think this was a problem with Hyper which is a YouTube app and not the sound drivers). The hibernation problem is now improved, but not sorted. This is the behavior:If I click Start ->  Hiberbate it hibernates OK, and resumes OKIf I let the system Hibernate with the timer, it hangs during hibernation, and never powers off. I have to then long-press the power button to power it off, then power it on as normal.The main difference is that with 2 it goes to 'Sleep' mode first (this bit works fine) then hibernate, whereas 1 skips 'Sleep' mode. So my conclusion is that there's an issue going from 'Sleep' to 'Hibernate'. Things I've tried:Using battery vs plugged in: Made no differenceResetting the power scheme defaults: Made no difference My next test is to try bypasssing sleep altogether by stting the timers to:Sleep after 10 minsHibernate after 1 minAny other ideas welcome as always. 

  • Video and sound not working

    I have found several issues with Itunes on various computers where when playing trailers in Itunes, there is NO video and NO sound. All of the affected machines are on Windows 7 Professional mostly 64 bit. Some Dell Desktops and some Lenovo laptops. There seems to not be any pattern. Uninstalling Itunes and re-installing does not fix this issue. Some machines with same above OS have no issues. All are on iTunes  11.1.3.8 version. I have searched through many formums and it appears this issue has been occuring for many many years. I see forum's back to 2008. There seems to be no really resolution to this issue. Anyone else having these problems and or what other things have you done to resolve this?
    Thanks

    After I`ve followed David`s  steps my computer`s sound started working again. But it didn`t last. The sound stopped working just one day after.
    I did the procedure again, and it worked. But just for a few hours.
    The second time I reinstalled the IDT codec I noticed at the device manager that there is no conflict at the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC.
    Instead, the conflict appear in another item of the sound, video and game controllers topic: high definition audio device.
    Is there another codec I should reinstall?
    Could anyone help me?

  • My video recording sounds not working but other sounds are working fine, I've tried clearing the little mic thing near my earphone hole and had no success can someone please help me out?

    hhi guys
    my video recording sounds not working at all but it's working for other things such as music. I've tried to clear my sound thing near the earphone hole but had no success can someone please help me out?

    Had an Iphone 4 for about 3 months now. This happened to the first one I had and they ended up having to replace it at the apple store just a couple weeks ago 6/2. It happened again last night to my new one. This time i was able to correct it by going to itunes, backing up the phone to icloud, and then restoring the software. Mine did not work with voice memo, but did work with headphones plugged in, and would also work on speaker. I could hear callers but they couldn't hear me. I had purchased a new case (lifeproof case at $79.99) because it comes with plugs that cover the headphone jack, and the charging port, and is also waterproof. I heard that the root cause is due to lint, dirt, etc getting inside the headphone jack. Well, must be something else. It's a 10 days old phone, and has been in this overpriced case the whole time, and I have not used the headphones. I hope this doesn't keep happening.

  • 2 of 4 speakers and Subwoofer not working for Altec Lansing Lucasfilms THX Surround (circa 2003)

    I am attempting to connect my Altec Lansing Lucasfilm THX 5.1 sound system to my HP ENVY All-in-one. I think the original audio card for the sound system came on a Dell with Soundblaster. 
    I have connected the green audio to the jack in the back which only gets 2 of the 4 speakers working (even after configuring the speakers). The subwoofer is connected to the sub jack in the back panel as well and is not working at all. I realize that I am trying to have an ancient sound system work with my fancy new HP Envy. Am I asking too much??  I thought maybe a driver update might be needed. But in theory, if those jacks are available in the back it should work (she says optimistically).
    Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated.

    Not a problem.  Thank you for the additional information.
    It sounds like you have the speakers connected correctly.  If there is only one connector for all of the speakers, it may be that you will only be able to use two of them.  However, I am not certain why the subwoofer isn't working.  Is it selected in the Control Panel / Sound?  I realize that you said the speakers are configured in the Control Panel, but is the subwoofer separate?
    I have an old (2001) Polk Audio set of speakers.  I have only been able to get two of them and the subwoofer to work with my new HP computer.  It sounds fine without the other two speakers.
