Audio Sync Problem When Playing on iPod

I just got my video iPod and have been encoding some .avi's using Xilisoft. When I play the output as a .mp4 it's fine on my laptop, but when I play them on my iPod there's a distinct audio sync lapse that gets worse as the players goes. Many videos also freeze at 1:51 (even though the time indicator shows the whole file time).
Anyone else having this problem and found any solutions?
Thanks.

Audio CDs skip when played on iPod

when playing audio books on a 20gig iPod I get occasional skipping _ no actual noise but silent spots which break up the speaking _ this will usually happen once or twice per book & usually toward the end of one of the original CDs _ but with a new copy of the Harry Potter "Goblet of Fire" audio CD the skipping is happening on nearly every CD _ tried redoing the CD's & the skipping is happening in different sections _ any suggestions as to what causes the skipping ? _ any suggestions as to how to prevent it ?

It could be a couple of things. Are you running the very latest version of software for your iPod and the latest version of iTunes? You can update these at Apples home page. Also, it may not be a CD/iPod communication issue. It is a problem most likely with the format between the CD and iTunes. You can check this by playing it from iTunes through your home PC. If it still skips there then it has to do with the Book to iTunes. Are you disconnecting your iPod after you eject it in the PC's software? If you disconnect prior it may mess up files,
songs and books that are on the iPod.

Premiere Elements 8: Audio sync problem when exporting to Quicktime H.264

Program plays back fine on the timeline also when saved as a mpeg file. QT file audio sync is off. Using QT player to play back. Any thoughts?

Check you have the very latest version of QuickTime (7.7.1 at time of writing): QuickTime 7.7.1 for Windows

Syncing problems when using multiple iPods on the same computer?

I own three iPods. An 8GB nano, a 16GB touch, and a 64GB touch.
iTunes seems to have no problems with the nano, but it seems to have issues from time to time with the two touch iPods. "Syncing" sometimes becomes "screwing up" in the form of deleting content that I have purchased.
My latest attempt to transfer a purchase (Toy Story 3) from my 64GB touch resulted in a "sync" which has basically corrupted my media libraries. I can see on iTunes that the media is still on my iPod, and even play it within iTunes from my iPod; when I disconnect my iPod from my computer and attempt to access the same media on the iPod by itself, both my music and my video libraries are showing up blank.
Has anyone else had the same problem?
NOTE: My 64GB iPod touch is not the latest version; it doesn't have the HD camera, but it does have the mic input. My 16GB touch is even older, having neither the camera nor the mic. The 16GB touch is an even bigger mess, with app icons frequently appearing as big grey blocks instead of the pictures they're supposed to be.
I like my 3 iPods. I like iTunes. I like Apple.
I just don't like it when things stop working the way they're supposed to.
HELP!

Audio sync problem when exporting between FCP6 and Soundtrack

Hi, I'm a newbie to this so apologies for any glaring errors.
I've recently upgraded to FC studio 2 and have exported the audio of an existing 20 minute custom format quicktime project (720x408, 30fps,) to soundtrack for sweetening.
Trouble is, when returning the audio back to FCP, the audio is shorter by several seconds and therefor totally out of sync! I've also tried outputting the multitrack audio from within FCP and bringing it back in as a single file and this is also out by several seconds. The output settings are the same as the project.
If I do nothing to the audio and simply send it to compressor; the M2v and it's aiff play in sync in Quicktime.
Any ideas or work arounds?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

DMA 2100 - Audio Quality problems when playing mp3 or wma files

I recently purchased a DMA 2100 - two weeks ago.
Plays my streamed DVDs (VOB files) along with streamed video off the internet wonderfully. I'm impressed that it actually seems to upscale my DVDs and the Audio quality is perfect.
But when I try to play a simple mp3 or wma file I experience pops, clicks and short dropouts during playback.
Obviously my network is more then sufficient to push DVDs across reliably it should be able to push mp3s/wma files. Network performance monitor shows me in the low end of HDTV capable and stable. MP3s and WMAs are stored on the same disk as my DVD VOB files hence I don't expect there is a problem with my media center PC serving them. (PIII 3.0GHz, 2.5GBs, 2TB RAID 5 SATA Array)/ I was experiencing some problems with playback on my PC but that was resolved by upgrading the drivers for my audio card SB Audigly 2
Any ideas?

Looking further into this I also notice that my Media Center PCs processor is running all out 70%-100% processor utilization when streaming the MP3s or WMA files.
Meanwhile when streaming DVDs the processor is at a rather lazy 10% or so.
Anyone, any ideas why when Streaming DVDs my audio would be perfect and processor idle.... but when streaming WMAs my processor is pegged and the audio pops and crackels as it plays?

Premiere CS4 - Audio sync problems, Encoding Problems

Hi,
I've been using Premiere CS3 for encoding 20-25 minute videos to deploy on a Flash Media Streaming server.
Today I upgraded to CS4 and everything that I render to FLV/FV4, H264 or Quicktime format has serious audio sync problems when I use AAC as the audio codec. Unfortunately for me, AAC is the codec that I need to use for the streaming server. The audio is synchronized to begin with, but it gets progressively unsynched as the video progresses.
Has anyone else had this problem? I'm using bitrates of 256 kbps, 512kbps for the video and 24 kbps / 32 kbps for the audio.
Another thing that I've noticed is that many of the options that I used when encoding videos are no longer available!! For instance, I cannot generate hinting tracks for Quicktime, and most of the audio frequencies are gone for Quicktime as well.
What a disappointment:(
-Chris

Seems to be an on going issue with no response from Adobe. Have the same issue with the audio running ahead of the video. (Cool if this was an old Japanese monster video).
Running CS4 PP & AME all updates are current. Nvida Quardro CX (current drivers 4.20.006) used several formats (Elemental h.264 to MPEG-2) same issue.
PC Intel Xeon CPU 3.20GHz 16GB RAM – Prof Win XP x64 Ser Pack 2
Any help from Adobe would be appreciated.

Audio Sync problem iTunes Festival

Audio Sync problem when watching iTunes Festival on Apple TV3. Other video's work fine. Anyone else experiencing the same? Any solutions?

Hi There,
The same problem is happening with me as well. I keep getting the "analysing audio" message and my clips are 24 or 25 frames out of sync.
I am currently working on a mixed format project - DVCAM and HDV capture into a DVCAM sequence. The DVCAM clips are causing the problem. The HDV clips are fine. I wondered whether it might be a mixed format issue - switching between capture codecs within the same project? Is that something either of you guys are doing? What camera was the footage recorded on. The pictures I'm struggling with were recorded on an Ikegami and I'm capturing from a sony deck.
I have found an easy workaround. Put your entire out of sync clip into the timeline. Correct the sync then drag it back to your bin. You'll get two clips with the same name which is a tad confusing but the one you've dragged back will at least be in sync.
I remember having this problem years ago without explanation. It hasn't then happened for years until now.....
I'd be interested to know if you get to the bottom of it.
Good luck,
Richard

Audio problem with iTunes feed when played on iPod

I'm writing to see if someone can help.
The audio on my podcast works fine at Libsyn (at http://epltalk.libsyn.com). However, the same version that's on iTunes has audio problems when played on an iPod (it plays fine when it's played from the iTunes program on my Mac). During the interview portion of the podcast on my iPod -- downloaded from iTunes (listed under 'EPL Talk')-- you can only hear the answers, but you can't hear the questions (my voice).
Does anyone have any suggestions of what could be wrong? All of my other podcasts I listen to on the same iPod play fine. Very strange.
Cheers,
The Gaffer

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 the screen blacks out or 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.

Audio sync problem with videos imported from iPod Touch

I have an iPod Touch 4th Generation that I used to shoot video at a family birthday party. When I imported the footage into iMovie '11, the audio is not in sync with the video (video is about two seconds behind audio) and there is only the left channel of audio. I verified that the video on the iPod plays just fine--no audio sync problem, both left and right channels work. I just upgraded to iOS 5 on the iPod Touch. The iMac is running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
As a workaround, I can import the video into iPhoto instead. When I play the video in iPhoto, there are no audio sync problems and both channels of audio can be heard. I have imported other iPod Touch videos successfully into iMovie '11 in the past few months, but this has been the first time these problems have occurred. Any help would be appreciated.

Premiere cannot handle clips with variable framerate.
Your converted clips need to have constant framerate.
Otherwise use a converter like Handbrake.

Itunes 9.2 consistently pauses the music when playing from Ipod Touch

I couldn't find this posted anywhere else so ever since updating itunes and my ipod touch I've been having a problem when playing music on my computer from ipod. About 5-10 times during the song itunes will pause the song and my ipod will say "Syncing in progress". It gets really annoying and hasn't happen before the update. Is there any way to fix this? Thanks.

You should get your songs into iTunes and then immediately back them up.
To get the songs off your iPod and into iTunes, see this post from Zevoneer > http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11857456&#11857456

Audio sync problem downloading VHS-C

I've downloaded a straight VHS tape (with no audio sync problems) into final cut pro once I had changed the Camera setting to 32Khz and the capture and sequeence presets to 32khz as well (it was all aout of sync when the settings were 48Khz).
The problem now, which is driving me MAD, is I have 13 hours of VHS-C tapes, which I have put into a VHS cassette converter to download and the audio is out of sync. The capture presets are the same as above (i.e. 32KHZ) . Why is this? I downloaded them initially at 48Khz (settings on the camera 48Khz and FCP at 48Khz in capture and sequence settings), but this was also out of sync.
Why is it different from one VHS tape to a VHS-C tape?
I hope there is a God out there that can help with this one?
Thanks!

Eagleray:
I capture through a ADVC-100.
I use to find the same problem playing VHS tapes with a standard VHS player from time to time and never solved it. The out of sync audio appears when capturing some specific tapes from specific sources:
- All my home tapes recorded in my old VHS recorder shows a audio problem; not specifically out of sync, but some audio "cracks" from time to time, like an electronic noise. No way to find a capture setings that works.
- Some customers VHS tapes that showed the out of sync (no noises) and again, no combination of digitalizer settings made it works. Had to resync the audio editing and stretching in an external audio editor or cutting shorts parts and syncing them with video. The our of sync appears in small captured portions, like 10 min or so.
- Never found a sync or audio problem capturing from VHC-C (the small VHS tapes) playing them with the tape adapter in the player.
I google long hours about this problems and all that I learned is that some old VHS recorders had not a "synchro" signal in the tape.
As I told you, I don't use any pro VHS deck, just my consumer "state of the art" VHS home recorder.
I hope there is a God out there that can help with this one?
I don't think HE visit these forums.

Audio Sync Problems With Share YouTube -- OSX not iOS

I've replicated this several times. It's maddening and bizarre. *Share YouTube*
Exporting a FCPX video using the "SHARE" menu and choosing YouTube causes the resulting upload to be out of sync when viewed in Safari or other browsers on iOS
Viewing the same video on the iPad with the built in YouTube app, the video plays in sync
Viewing the same video on AppleTV 2 (with the 5.1 update), the video plays in sync.
If I export using Export Media menu item under the SHARE menu, and then from QuickTime Player choose Export For Web (under the File menu) and manually upload, the video is in sync.
Note, that using
Feel free to try on this short simple and silly video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGTQNMJdPRQ&list=UUiDxioBFJCPC-8OUFifsx8A&index=2 &feature=plcp
Anyone else experience this. Is this a bug or a feature? Rather not go through three steps to upload a simple YouTube video.

We've got the same problem and yep, it's infuriating that are so few posts about it.
It doesn't happen with every video, but the vast majority of files that we've tried to either export directly to YouTube from QTX or export locally and then manually upload to YouTube end up with shockingly bad audio sync (and also some colour issues, but that's another story).
As a small video production company we were chuffed to bits with the improved export speed in QTX and quick to make use of it. But when we realised there was a problem, we had to revert back to using QT7's painfully slow export.
We've run experiments on a brand new iMac and MacBook Pro running the most up-to-date version of OS X and still no joy. Always the same audio sync problems with the same video files.
In the meantime however, we've found that the settings advised on this YouTube help page have given us the best (albeit slow) results at both 25fps and 30fps when exporting from QT7:
