Audio Stuttering When Music Score is Inserted

I created my first video using Premiere Elements 12 & was pleased with the results. YAY!!!  I deleted all the existing audio and used Audio | Drag & Drop to insert Spin followed by Afternoon Sun.  Worked great, saved the file & uploaded to YouTube.  I then realized that I wanted to add two additional clips totaling less than 10 seconds.  My first mistake was in not saving the file under a new name immediately (DOH!), but I digress. New video clips added to Project Assets panel, inserted into Timeline & trimmed a tad.  No problem.  I then tried to expand the audio to include the new clips. Realized one couldn't simply make the tune longer to accommodate the additions so I deleted the audio completely & added the audio scores as though starting fresh. The audio / music score skipped every few seconds with no discernible pattern, say, always at the beginning of a new clip.  I made sure that I had clicked on Render, but that didn't smooth out the silent gaps in the music.  Even the preview of the two musical scores stuttered intermittently so I thought the files must have somehow become corrupted. 
I saved the file under a new name, exited the program, uninstalled, then reinstalled Premiere from the DVD.  After all that, the previews STILL stutter.  I've lost an entire afternoon trying to add those two brief clips. I can see the cursor flicker during the preview, but can't figure out how to correct the issue. I have closed down every other program & re-booted and it would seem that my 8GB of RAM should be sufficient plus it worked before, even with Photoshop Elements & Chrome open.  Since the audio files are downloaded, I thought a slow download speed might be at fault.  I ran a SpeedTest showing my download speed is 12 Mbps. I've had Premiere 10 on my computer for ages & never used it, but upgraded to 12 specifically to have access to royalty-free music & now that feature isn't working. As a newbie, I'm probably missing something obvious.  PLEASE HELP before I resort to violence against my poor computer. 
Thanks!
Victoria

I forgot to mention that my mp3 files play fine so this isn't an issue with my speakers. Further, I get the stuttering / gaps in other music scores I've not even downloaded while using the Music Score preview feature.

  • Audio Stuttering When Importing Video

    Hey guys, quick question.
    I am currently working on a project that was given to me in the form of one Mini-DV tape. I'm trying to capture the footage into Premiere CS3, however, both as I'm capturing and while I'm watching the captured footage, there is a ton of audio stuttering, rendering the clips worthless.
    I'm capturing using a Canon Ultura A mini-dv cam. When I listen to the audio coming from the camera's speakers, it's perfect. Only on the computer do I have issues with it.
    My computer's speed should not be a problem either, I'm running premiere on this:
    Intel Core2Duo E6600 @ 2.4
    2 GB DDR2-800 ram
    MSI P6N Platinum Motherboard (This is where the firewire port is located)
    Nvidia 8800 GTX Graphics card
    Creative X-fi Soundcard.
    Any ideas on potential fixes?

    Interesting, I will have to try and find another firewire cable to see if that fixes the problem.
    Any other capture programs you guys could recommend for me to check out?

  • Audio glitches when music stops

    Hi there,
    I'm the happy owner of a Lumia 800.
    The only point that ennoys me is an issue I have with audio. I checked the long thread dedicated to the poor audio in this forum, but I don't think it is the same issue.
    Actually, audio is good when music is playing, but when music stops (eg pausing a song on spotify), I hear some "glitches" for 1 second, then silence comes.
    I'm running 07.10.08107.03 (latest fw available in Belgium).
    Thanks for any feedback.

  • Audio stutters when listening to music on U410

    I have a U410 ultrabook (purchased in Nov. 2012) which has been working fine until a couple weeks ago. Almost any time I try to listen to music now (either online with internet radio or locally with mp3s), the sound will stutter and skip. This happens about once a minute.
    I haven't installed any new software or changed drivers lately, but the computer does seem to be slowing down a bit compared to when it was brand new.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem or have any ideas on fixes?
    Solved!

  • Audio stutters when under CPU load, USB sound issue?

    ACD 27" connected to a PC via displayport/mini displayport adapter. When playing music while doing CPU intensive tasks, the audio instantly stutters, cuts out, grumbles, etc. This suggest my PC is simply not powerful enough however that's not the case (specs below).
    What i've determined.
    1. This only happens when using the apple display for audio.
    2. When speakers/headphones are plugged in to the motherboard, everything works great.
    3. This happens with all audio applications. itunes, vlc, winamp, etc.
    The display uses its built in USB cable for audio, right? I'm thinking it's gotta be some typ of driver issue for USB audio. However I've updated all drivers so I'm stumped there.
    Specs:
    Intel Core i5-2500K @ 4.6GHz (65-70* under load)
    CORSAIR CWCH60 Hydro Series H60 High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler
    GIGABYTE GA-Z68MA-D2H-B3
    G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR3 1600
    Kingston HyperX SH100S3B/120G 2.5" 120GB SATA III SSD
    SAPPHIRE 100326L Radeon HD 6670 1GB 128-bit GDDR5

  • T42 Audio stutters when WLAN turned on

    Hi @all!
    We've got a weird Problem over here: we have some T42 Thinkpads with Win XP Pro and all Updates (Win and most recent drivers from Lenovo) installed and the audio-playback gets stuck when the WLAN is activated. When we disable WLAN (via FN-F5) stuttering stops and normal playback works like a charm.
    Problem occurs in every Player we tested (iTunes, Windows Media Player, WinAmp etc.) and with all Power Schemes and different amounts of RAM installed.
    Installed WLAN-Card is an Intel card with 2100b chipset.
    Anyone encountereda similar Problem? Anyone with a solution for this?
    Thanks for your help!

    Dan,
    It sounds like one of your preferences has changed.
    Go to preferences > audio > general, and make sure "track mute/solo" is set to "CPU saving (slow response)". It is probably set to "Fast " at the moment.
    This setting (fast) basically causes immediate muting from the channel strip while your song is in play. This is because the audio is still being read from the hard drive, but the channel strip is simply muted.... like a hardware mixer. When set to "CPU saving", the audio from that track, when muted, is actually stopped from streaming from the hard drive, but there is a couple second delay before the audio is actually muted.
    One would think that the fast setting is generally preferable, except when you need to do what you are doing. The only way to keep duplicate copies of channel strips acting independent of one another is to leave this setting on the "CPU saving" setting.
    Hope that helps

  • Video/audio Stuttering on Macbook 13

    Hi All
    I have a mid 2007 Macbook 13 running OS X Lion 10.7.4.  all up to date.  Initially I had 4G's of ram ( I know it only reads 3 ) now I have it running on only 2.
    Problem is video/audio stuttering when running movies. mostly netflix and or connected to a flat screen tv. on wireless or wired connection.  but it also happens just running youtube videos or videos that I have on the system mostly in .AVI format.   I could be running movies with VLC or quicktime and same ting.  I've tried turning every running program off.  like firewall, little snitch, sophos AV, etc.  after turning them all off I do a restart.  I have done permssion repair, checked the disk, run the daily scripts,  even downgraded to SL to see if Lion was too much for the system and nothing.  of of the 4G's of ram that I have.  I swapped them to see if maybe one or 2 of them ware bad.  when I install the operating system, I do a clean install.  delete partition, format, the whole thing and bring it up to date.  not all at one time.  disk permissions repaired after each big updated.  almost half the time the videos will run ok and than it starts stuttering.  when is doing it.  not even the mouse responds in those few seconds.  is like something is grabbing all the system memory for a few seconds at a time.  it has gotten to the point that the system completly frezzes and I get that black translusent window that says the system needs to be restarted.
    I have about 40% free HD space.
    Any ideas ?
    Thanks

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    The behavior you mention is typical of MacBooks with the GMA 950 video chipset and 64MB VRAM.
    The best solution I've found is to quickly pause the video and let the video load completely before watching, IF the website allows it and will preload the content. Not all of them do. Some sites automatically buffer before they begin playing.
    Watch in a window rather than full-screen.
    Watch content on your MacBook screen rather than a HDTV.
    The Safari Extension "ClickToFlash" lets you choose whether to load Flash content at all. It also allows 'preferring' H264/HTML5 web video content when available, and seems to be a bit better than simply defaulting to Flash content for every website.
    I have a mid-2007 MacBook 2,1 with 4/3GB RAM. It is the very oldest model capable of supporting Lion. After reading of performance issues with these older systems in these forums, I chose to remain on Snow Leopard rather than upgrading to Lion. Snow Leopard runs most things I do very well in 3GB. Lion really seems to need 4GB and would like 8GB, from what I read here.
    You don't mention how fast your internet connection is. A faster internet connection MIGHT help some. A wired Ethernet connection MIGHT offer a bit more throughput than WiFi. Worth trying out, especially if you have a friend with a faster connection where you can try before you pay to upgrade.
    Ultimately we're talking about 5-year-old computers. That's "ancient" in computer life cycles, and the best solution (not most cost-effective) is a new(er) Mac. It's not a problem unique to Mac. Old Windows XP systems lack the performance of new hardware running 64-bit Windows 7.
    New or recent Refurbs with 4GB or more RAM, faster video chipset, more VRAM, faster clock-speed, Intel "Sandy Bridge" (or "Ivy Bridge" likely coming soon) dual-core or quad-core processor, and, yes, a hefty pricetag to match. Anything else is at best a temporary measure to buy a bit of time (a year, maybe?) until you can purchase a new(er) faster better Mac.

  • Audio stuttering in all browsers

    I am having a constant issue with audio stuttering when playing videos, which has persisted for a couple of weeks now. This occurs in Firefox, Chrome and Internet Explorer.
    I have tried downgrading to previous versions of Flash (including both 10.3 and a previous 11.X version), and (unless I am not doing this correctly) this has not fixed the issue.
    I have even attempted to solve the problem by resetting Firefox, and then upgrading to the latest 15.0 beta, but this did not work as well.
    Is there anything else I can do to resolve this issue, or is there something more fundamental broken with my machine? (I ask this as I have had problems with both Windows Update and a virus recently, and before these issues I did not have any problems with Flash playback.)
    I am running Windows 7 on a Lenevo G570 laptop. I am currently using the latest version of Flash (11.3.300.268), and before I upgraded to the Firefox 15.0 beta I was using Firefox 14.1. (I believe that both Chrome and Internet Explorer are up to date, but I predominantly don't use these browsers.)

  • [X121e] Audio glitch/stuttering when multitasking

    Hello,
    I am encountering some regular issues (glitches, stuttering)  when playing some music and doing some operations in parallel (copy, browsing, etc.).
    The discourageing things being:
      - Latest driver/bios are installed,
      - Occurs even when the laptop is powered by AC supply (i.e. maximum performance mode),
      - The hard drive is SSD (no bottleneck here),
      - 8 GB RAM (used at most @20%),
      - CPU activity is quite quiet during these paralllel operations.

  • HT1567 Itunes 10.6.1.7 is not recognising an Audio CD when inserted in the drive. This means I connot import any CD's. What could be wrong?

    iTunes 10.6.1.7 is not recognising an audio CD when inserted in the drive. This means that I cannot import CD's. It used to work but since installing other software iTunes does not see the audio CD and will not open the drive when "eject disc" is selected from the controls menu.

    Check the drive letter of your CD drive.  iTunes doesn't seem to work properly with CD drives if they are mapped to the letters A or B.  Use Disk Management tool in windows to change to a different letter and this will fix it (if this is the cause!).

    Hi,
    Firstly, your country is detemined by several factors, including your phone's regional settings, your SIM card and your NokiaAccount settings, if you used this phone whilst abroad then you may need to check that your regional and account settings are up to date since you have arrived in Canada.
    For services like Gigs, you should also ensure that the MixRadio app has access to your phone's GPS location as well as the main location being on in the phone settings. To check this, as well as Location being turned on in the phone settings, in MixRadio itself go to Settings>Location>On:
    The concern with favourites may also be related to location, if the music from certain artists is available in Canada but not where the service might think you are, availability of content may vary from region to region.
    If all settings in both the phone, your Nokia Account and the MixRadio app are correct, we may have to investigate deeper.
    It is impossible to comment on your camera without seeing it, you cold have the phone checked by Nokia Care locally, but of course if it was supplied in Europe it will be covered by the European Limited Warranty which is not valid in Canada.

  • Audio distortion when fully inserting headphones

    Evening Applers
    I've noticed a small crack on the very top left of my 3GS around the metallic frame that has coincided with a problem with the audio when adding headphones.
    I suppose I'm trying to diagnose whether the impact of this crack could have damaged in some way the audio jack to cause audio problems when fully inserting the headphones. If I insert the headphones 1/2 way the audio is as new, but obviously as they're not fully inserted makes it tricky to listen without having to support the jack to provide the connection.
    I've tried fully inserting a similar jack linked to my stereo, however, and the audio is as new!?!? I've also tried the headphones out of another iPod to see whether that is causing a problem as well as attempting to clean the jack and blow any dust out but to no avail.
    Does anyone recognise this problem, and can offer any tips or suggestions as to resolving this?
    Many thanks in advance
    Tim

    Many thanks for your reply,
    I thought the same but would have thought the jack would then display similar problems when playing through another 3.5mm plug..it also turns out that the phone speaker itself doesn't work either unless the speakerphone is on. I'm beginning to think that something else is going on!!
    I've no recollection of a bump, deep or crash of the severity that it would appear knock the whole audio aspect of an iPhone. I appreciate they are sensitive pieces of kit but this is a bit much..

  • ITunes stutters when playing LOUD Music

    I'm a mobile DJ, and I use my MacBook Pro SR 2.2 Ghz with 2GB Ram and Mac 10.5.3 with iTunes 7.6.2. When I DJ I use loud speakers and I believe it's causing the Sudden Motion Sensor in the Laptop to "brake" the hard drive, therefore stuttering the music. This is not acceptable. I have looked up online how to turn this off, and found a thread about opening the terminal and typing in a command line:
    To disable SMS:
    sudo pmset -a sms 0
    To enable SMS:
    sudo pmset -a sms 1
    However, after I disabled the SMS and verifying it's turned off, it still stutters? It works fine when I'm playing at normal volume levels, but when I turn up the volume it's like it didn't turn off the SMS. I have an older Powerbook G4 (1.33 Ghz on Tiger) that doesn't have the Sudden Motion Sensor and it works great under any volume level. Does anyone know why it still stuttering even when I turn off the SMS?

    I just paid $0.99 to download music from apple store. It shows up in my "Purchased" and "Library" but it just wont play altho all other music in my iTunes plays well.
    Any suggestions?
