Audio stopping when movie changes

Old versions of Director would continue playing sounds/music using puppetSound even when the movie loaded another movie. However, I've been trying to bring some legacy projects into Director 12, and the sounds keep getting cut off. Any ideas?

Is this a known problem...
Kinda. But not really an iLife/Mac problem. The DV (Digital Video) specification itself calls for the audio and video to be on separate tracks. These tracks are not locked together (however the Sony DVCam camcorders do lock the sampling rates together). Now if your camera records an accurate sample rate of 16-bit/48KHz, then you will never notice a problem. If all you capture are short clips, you will never notice a problem. However, if your camera is off in the slightest, then there will be a sync drift. How much drift depends on how far off the sampling rate is. I had a Canon GL1 (notorious for sync drift) that recorded audio at 48.0001KHz. By about 15 minutes into a long capture you could notice drift.
The good news is that extracting the audio should do the trick.

Why does audio stop when pavilion 23xi sleeps (using Windows 8)

why does audio stop when pavilion 23xi sleeps (using Windows 8)?

Hello again @st3lla,
I can understand the fear of messing up a computer when I first started seriously working on computers back in the early 90's I had to format and re-install my operating system twice a day for quite a while before I figured out a very important step (at least important for me), and that was after I made a change to my computer to restart it. This way if I messed something up I only had to undo one thing and not 50 because I went wild on it. lol
Anyways, do not be afraid of your computer all you need to do is learn that step, how to keep your personal items backed up and then of course how to re-install your computer back to factory and you can always start over with a fresh build.
On to your questions:
Q - What are the steps to ensure that all HP updates are done.
A - Simply review the HP Support document: Using HP Support Assistant (Windows 8) and it will guide you through the process.
Q - What are the steps to ensure that all Windows updates are done?
A - Simply review the Microsoft Support document: Windows Update: Frequently Asked Questions and again you will find answers to this question. (***Note: Do not worry if the document refers to Windows 8.1 it is only an upgraded version of Windows 8 and the steps are the same)
I am also including a Windows Support document: Install the latest Windows 8.1 Update, which will guide you through how to install the Windows 8.1 update on your computer.
And finally, to put your mind at ease I am providing you with two important HP Support documents: Backing Up Your Files (Windows 8), and Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 8), which will provide you with all the instructions you need to backup your personal files so you do not loose them if you ever do mess up the computer, as well as provide you with instructions on how to put your computer back to how it came from the factory.
Please re-post if you require additional support. Thank you once again for your post on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!

Menu background audio stops when entering transition

Is there anyway for the menu audio to overlap a transition towards the timeline ?
I have a menu setup with audio and a still frame from a small movie as background, when hitting play all the menu play's the movie clip/transition which fades out and then starts at chapter 1 of the timeline. Problem I'm facing now is that the audio which loops in the menu stops when entering the transition clip. While I would like the audio to overlap the transition clip. Can't find anything related to audio which could set the audio to keep playing while the transition clip does it's job.
If encore doesn't support this, then it should be included. In that case does anyone know how to workaround ?
Big thnx

Robbie.
This is simply not possible in DVD-Video.
The format is visually dominant - which means any time you switch menus, timelines - even with transitions - the audio must change too.
You can - if you must - use Aufdio in the transition as well, but please bear in mind that there
i will
be a glitch as the visuals change - it's unavoidable.

Why objet is not stopped when page change

Hi,
I'm currently working in my company on a library.
A have created a class to display ads in a webrowser. A request is executed every 20 seconds.
I display the ads in a panorama page
but when i go to a detail page my banner continu to do request.
The object isn't destroyed when the page change ?
And if not how can i resolve it ?
Thank you

No. You should call the stop method on that timer to ensure it stops when you want it to. It sounds like there's a handle somewhere on that timer that hasn't been released (perhaps via page caching) so that's why the timer hasn't gone out of scope.
Ignoring the obvious solutions makes your programming life more difficult.

MacBook Pro (2007) Audio stops when Bluetooth enabled

All audio stops playing when Bluetooth is toggled to 'On' and 'Discoverable'. No receiving devices are on. iTunes music pauses, and if playing Pandora through Chrome, Pandora stops functioning, and must be restarted. When receiving devices are turned on, and Bluetooth is toggled 'On', the MacBook does not pair. Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks!

you are welcome

Final Cut Pro 7: Audio Stops when clicking outside the program.

Just something that annoyed me and was wondering if their is a way to correct it. Whenever I am listening to a song within final cut in a video or in the viewer, it will stop playing if I click out of the program. For example i might be listening to a song and want to go do a google search or open another program and as soon as i do the audio stops. It will begin playing once i click back into final cut and everything works fine but its just bothersome. If anyone knows a way to change this please help me out!
Thanks
Josh

well, I think if I remember correctly that might be a normal state, because FCP wants to "take over" completely. My systems are on MacPros with Kona Cards and I/Os setup for 5.1 output. I think I lose audio because the Kona wants only one app controlling it at a time. I'd have to be sitting in front of the box to figure it out. But oddly enough I'm actually home.

Audio drops when movie exported from iMovie into iDVD

Hi there,
I am a problem which I can't seem to fix.
I have created a 7 minute long slideshow in imovie with MP3 files from iTtunes embedded. The video and audio are fine when exported as a MOV file (and within iMovie itself). But when exported into iDVD for burning, the audio drops out completely after 3 and a half minutes.
I've tried updating iMovie, iDVD etc., deleting encoded assets as it says to do here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24043?viewlocale=en_US
to no avail.
Does anyone have any tips? My friend's wedding is on Saturday!
Thanks so much.
RR

Hi
A. I do not use "Share to iDVD" - BUT "Share to Media Browser" and as Large (not HD or other res.) - Works much better.
B. When did it hang ?
a. On Export from iMovie to iDVD
b. When DVD is played on DVD-Player
If last one - then
• What brand of DVD did You use (Yes it matters)
• What type of DVD
• Free Space on Start-Up hard disk - How much
• Burn speed - did You set down this - I do to x2 or x4

Audio stops when external link clicked on?

Hi
I have a V/O audio file which read out eveything which is shown on a slide. Some of my slides have external links to either websites or PDF downloads and if they are clicked on while the audio is still going it will stop. Is there anyway of the user to still be able to click on external links and have the audio still play?
I am using Captivate 5.5.
Cheers

Hi There,
Welcome To Adobe Forum.
Can you please try the following steps to see if that work for you.
1     Insert the video/audio file that you have on the slide
2.    Then insert a button to the slide using which you can open a link or a file externally.
3.    Now on the button "Action" properties use the "open URL or file" option and then check the box "Continue playing the project" as shown in the image below:
4. Now publish the file and play it.
Thanks

IPad2 audio stops when screen goes to sleep

As soon as my iPad 2's screen goes dark, the music fades out and stops. Hitting play starts it right back up. Happens the same via BT or the internal speakers. Tried killing all the apps and rebooting the iPad 2 - still happens. It's been working great until today. Any ideas?
AT&T iPad 2 64GB running iOS 5

Solved by using a 3rd party music player that can access the library on the iPad and no longer using Apple's iPod app.

Audio stops when locking...after iOS4 of course!

Since my iOS4 upgrade, whenever I play music, the first time the iTouch goes into lock mode the music crackles and stops. I then have to unlock the iTouch and then it starts back again by itself. After that I do not have any issues.
Obviously this never happened pre-iOS4!!!
Anyone else having the same issue?

It's also happening to me. Even worse, I need to unplug the earphone and plug it back to get the music back. Then another thing that I just realized today that though I have turn-off the Itouch, but it will turn-on by itself after 5 minutes. Not know what to do to solve this problem. It's really unpleasant experience.

Can you put the audio to work throughout the reading of the chapter? Today, when I change the page, the audio stops

Can you put the audio to work throughout the reading of the chapter? Today,when I change the page, the audio stops

The default action is as you've noted. Audio stops when navigation to another page,
iBA doesn't offer a way to do differently, sorry.

Stopping & resuming movie/audio after clicking button

I would like to have the following happen: User clicks a
button that says "Go to XYZ" ... The movie and the audio both stop
(pause actually) and the XYZ web page displays in another window.
Then, the user closes the XYZ page, and both the movie & audio
start playing again at the point where the user clicked the button.
I've figured out how to set it up so that clicking the button
displays the proper XYZ web page in a second window, and the movie
& audio stop when the button is clicked, but when I close the
second window I can't make the audio start back up. I can click the
"Play" button to make the movie start up again, but can't figure
out a way to make the audio come back. Is there a way? Ideally, the
movie & audio would play automatically when the second window
is closed, but that may be a technical feat beyond
my limited capabilities. Thanks, Alden

Happy to share, I'm still really a newbie (after all these
years) and I just figured this out, and I thought I'd spare the
explanation to make my question brief as possible to spare the time
of any Captivate expert (hint hint???) who might be able to help me
. If anyone needs to know how to do any of the rest of the stuff I
mentioned I'd be glad to share that too.
I see now that Rick beat me to the explanation of how to make
the audio stop. That's what I did. (Button properties / Options tab
/ Uncheck "Stop slide audio when clicked"
But now, what I would like to know is, is there any way to
get the audio to start back up again if the user closes the window
that the button opened?

Audio stops playing on page turn

hello,
Hope any of you can help me. I added a audio file to a page, in a chapter. I want to the audio to start playing when the page is opened, I selected the "play on page load" option, BUT I also want to the audio to continue playing whilst I flip through the other pages in the chapter. For some mysterouis reason, the audio stops when I flip to the next page. The option "stop on page turn" is not selected.
Does anyone have a workaround to get this fixed? I need it really badly.
Thank you for your help!
Marl

Thank you for your response Bob!
I just found out, by accident!, that when you keep smooth scrolling on it works! -- The audio keeps playing just fine when browsing throuhg the next pages. Now the only thing I have to find out is how I can keep the smooth scrolling option in horizontal ONLY.

A2019 JB Intermittant audio skipping when screen off

I don't know if anyone else is using their tablet for an audio player, but when I am, I will randomly get a pause in the audio for a brief moment. I'm using Poweramp, which has an option for wakelock when the screen is off to deter problems with the audio stopping when the screen is off. The screen being off doesn't normally stop the audio, but the option doesn't seem to help either. It would seem the OS is attempting to do something like go into a lower power mode than is required for Poweramp to run, and Poweramp is pulling it back out... Or something.
Anyone else encountering this? Any ideas for a fix?

Hello ugoff,
Make sure your apps and system firmware is up to date. As for the sound skipping when the screen goes off, I have seen that happen before and that usually only occurrs whenever a program in the background is being updated. Hope that helps.
