AVI Files have no Audio

I am using a cheap RCA Small wonder in PRE Elements 9. It shoots AVI files. Im sure there is some codec issue but, these files have no audio in Premiere Elements only. Everywhere else they are fine. Windows 7. Please help!

No Deal.... I did all of those things and RCA DID install a codec. So I thought I was good to go... This what I see..... still no audio.
I set these settings

  • Can Premiere Pro CC handle AVI files with multiple audio streams?

    I have an AVI file with two audio streams and I am wondering if there's any way to access the second stream in PP? So far I can only get the first stream to play. I know I can extract the second stream in for instance VirtualDub, but it would be nice to not have to do that in the interest of an effective workflow.

    Hello again Jim! Thank you for your reply, you seem to be working hard here on the forums! The info I have found from 2011 suggested that it wasn't possible then, but I was hoping maybe they added this feature.

  • Imported avi files video choppy, audio okay

    Had to resort to using Dazzle bridge with Pinnacle HD 14 to get D8 tapes captured to laptop. Clips play fine if i just click on them. They are avi files. When I import clips to Premiere (I don't like Pinnacle) the audio is okay but video is choppy - frames keep freezing although the audio continues okay. One of my puzzles is what is the proper project preset for files and folders as sources. Doesn't seem to be addressed anywhere, even in Grisetti's book. Also, presets for importing D8 format tapes is also not addressed. While I was able to import this files to PRE before (the last few weeks) now they won't capture. That's why I resorted to retrying dazzle pinnacle combo in desperation. The bridge works to capture, can import files into PRE but again, the freeze frame problem noted above occurs.

    Unfortunately, the Dazzle doesn't interface well with Premiere Elements. It works great with the Pinnacle software that's designed to work with it. But it doesn't produce DV-AVIs, the universal language of PC-based video.
    If you open those AVIs with G-Spot, it will tell us what type of codec those files use.
    http://www.headbands.com/gspot/
    Once we know that, we may be able to recommend software for converting it to an editable video.
    Or you can just edit it with Pinnacle's software.
    The best solution though would be to capture any analog video with a DV bridge, a device designed to create DV-AVI files. The FAQs to the right of this forum offer more information.

    EDIT:
    You refer in your post to D8 video. If by that you mean Digital8, there is an even simpler solution (assuming you also have a Digital 8 camcorder). But only if you're using Sony Digital8. Regular 8mm and Hi-8 video won't work  with this system.

  • .avi files changed to audio files only

    I do not have Quick Time on my PC asit is 64 bit and QT does not seem to work. I copied a number of beta tapes using PE Pro on a PC that had QT. The file names all showed the QT icon along with the name and .avi. I tried several other video programs with no luck before I go PR Pro which will directly open .avi files. No when I try and import one of these files it appears in th eproject panel as a audio file even thoogh the ID is still.avi. How do I change thes files back to video files?

    Depending on what is inside of the AVI "wrapper," you might not need QT Player, but if its icon is showing, I would puzzle over that. If you would look over this ARTICLE, and report on the CODEC inside the AVI wrapper, that will likely tell the story.
    Good luck,

    I found this component after doing a web search...
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/14633
    seems to fix the problem....but I noticed the volume is kind of low when playing this avi file in QT, but when I play it in the Mplayer it sounds a lot louder. And that is with the volume sliders on both QT, and Mplayer maxed out, and using the Macs volume to judge the difference.
    Anyway....
    The reason I want to play it in QT is that I can use my remote to pause and rewind and fast forward...

  • HT204382 what software do i need to play movies on avi file . have connected a external memory disk and all the movies are in avi format.

    What software do i need to install in order to be able
    to play movies in .avi format.
    have connected an external memory and all the entertainment
    files are in .avi format.
    Ansver i get : does not support

    VLC is a good choice. While I don't know if it will play your files, Perian is a helper app for Quicktime which allows you to play a lot of things in the Quicktime Player.
    There is also Flip4Mac which allows you to play windows media files in Quicktime.
    Finally, note that the extension on a video file doesn't really tell you what you need to play it. The .avi, .mpg, etc. is only the wrapper around the actual video. The video is encoded by some means and needs to be decoded. The video inside the .avi can be encoded in one of many different schemes.
    VLC, Perian, Flip4Mac, and many others, are all able to decode various flavors of encoding. Having all of those in your toolbox will help to allow you to play most of the things you'll find.

  • Can't Stop Capturing and Files Have no Audio

    Once a tape has finished capturing, the only way I can close OL is through the task manager or by starting a new tape.  I have captured every tape the exact same way, and out of 5 tapes, 3 have video only, 1 is a corrupted file, and 1 captured correctly.  I can only import the clip that has working audio and video into Premiere or SoundBooth—none of the others work; they just sit and (don't) import for hours.  All the files have sizes that suggest the audio is taking up space, but it will not play or import into a timeline.
    VLC will only play one of the files.  It has a thumbnail but no audio.
    I tested each tape to see if it would capture correctly, so I recorded 15 seconds and clicked stop (because it will allow me to stop if the tape is not over yet), and then I played the captured file, and they always had audio.  When I do the entire tape, however, only rarely does the audio stay intact.
    What do I DO?

    Wow. I just started using CS5OL and immediately ran into the same problem you described.  Sorry you had to wait for almost a year for a reply.
    I have a SONY D8 tape player/recorder and a SONY HDV tape player connected to W7 PC via DV link (firewire).  OL crashes if you try to STOP recording when being feed "bad" video ... ie area on tape passed recorded video.
    Since this appears to be an OL "bug" I can only offer you the work around that works for me.  Your mileage may vary.
    When OL is in record mode and the video on the tape "runs out" (tape runs passed end of recorded material)... if I click STOP in OL, it freezes and then quits.
    When I try to reload OL, it (warning ... assumptions ahead) "tries" to go straight to the previously opened project (even if you have prompt to ask at start up) and then freezes.  Apparently, OL "thinks" the start up prompt is displayed and waits for you to do something.  Only problem is, the prompt is not displayed and OL just boinks at you.  A visit to the Task Manager is the only way to kill OL.
    The weird thing is, if you rename the project file or folder that you had open when the crash occured ... the restart of OL does show the start up prompt as normal.  The other weird thing is that the clip that was being recorded during the crash apparently gets left "open" and is not properly closed.
    If you revisit the video clip file, only the video is there ... no audio.  Weird!
    The work around.  While recording and the tape player video runs passed the end of recorded video ... I simply press the review (rewind while playing) button on the player to rewind the tape back to "good" video.  Once the player starts playing the "good" video again ... then click STOP in OL and it should close the clip properly.
    In a nut shell, you can only STOP recording when OL is being feed "good" video.  It will crash 100% of the time (my un-success rate) if you hit STOP or RECORD if being feed "bad" video.
    In summary, when your tape plays passed the end of recorded material .... DON'T TOUCH OL!!!   Simply rewind the tape back to "good" video and allow to play.  Then press STOP.   Your clip may have a big clunky section at the end but that's why they invented video editors ... isn't it.
    I hope this helps.  Dave

  • C100 files have no audio

    Hi,
    I have shot some long interviews recently with the c100. I'm struggling with the AVCHD clips. When using mavericks I click on the private folder and then on the avchd file. Preview shows me the clips as I would expect them to be, single clips with audio.
    I then copy the entire file structure, intact, onto the computers hard drive, so far so good.
    Opening premiere pro cc I navigate to the file copied onto the hard drive using the media browser. If I import the folder called private, I get a report saying some files are not recognised, the private folder appears in the bin and inside it are MTS clips, but on the long span recorded clips, Im getting three or four identical clips with different clip numbers but same timecode and picture.
    These clips have no audio both sound wise and waveform wise.
    If I navigate into the private folder using the media browser I can see the separate movie files as brown icons with movie and sound icon. Clicking on these and importing them, solves the replication issue but still no sound, showing or playing back.
    What am I doing wrong?
    If I quit premier, save and re-open then some clips slowly regain there waveforms but have no sound, or conversely have sound but no waveforms. this sound then disappears again, when I scrub through.
    I hope Im doing something wrong, because to be honest this is a total mess and defeats the purpose of the c100, clip spanning and premiers supposedly native support.
    hopefully someone can help me out.
    Many thanks Paul

  • Adobe premier cc stopped importing avi files with PCM audio codec, unsupported audio format

    We were working just fine using Adobe premier pro cc, we captured videos in avi format video codec MJPEC audio codec PCM. Suddenly, I think after updating using cc, premier stopped importing any file giving the following Error message: The file contains an unsupported Audio format. We have captured more than 4000 hr from our library, and we are still capturing, our work is completlty freezed, we can not export to any format since we can not import in the first place. Our rivals in the market are taking our client and they are using old premier cs6 cracked version, this is ridiculous!! I installed adobe cs6 trial and it is working fine, this is very frustrating.
    I tried to insert an image of what gspot is giving me but for a certain reason it is not uploaded. Please help.

  • CC 2014.  Now AVCHD files have no audio.

    I'm running a mac and i've recently updated to Premier Pro CC2014.  My AVCHD files that worked before the update do not have audio anymore.
    I opened a previous project that used the same files and it works fine.  However, when I load the same AVCHD files into a new project, I've got no audio.
    Any ideas?

    I went back and fully removed the old cc version.  now 2014 is the only version installed.  Still no audio.
    I cleared the cache and cleared the bin with the media files.  then re-imported them into PP.
    I noticed a yellow caution symbol in the lower right corner of the screen.  When you click on it, this is what you get. 

  • Exported quicktime files have video & audio out of sync

    I am using FCP with a Sony HVR-Z1E. All seems ok in my edit etc but if I try to export my edit to a quicktime file using the quicktime conversion option the audio and video are out of sync on quicktime. If I export using quick time movie option, all is fine as this file is played back by FCP. I have tried different settings but I cant get the audio to be in sync with the video. My settings are HDV 1080i50 on my 15" Macbook Pro
    Thanks for any help

    You can open your "quicktime movie" (not qt conversion) in quicktime player. Simply control click on the file in the finder and choose open with... Try that and let us know if the file is in synch.

  • Megaview 561 - how to watch avi files with DC3 audio?

    I have a Megaview 561. I love it. I wish MSI supported it with updates!!!!!
    Anyway, my problem is watching (or rather, listening) to movies I am trying to watch which use DC3 audio instead of MP3 audio. I know I can re-encode the whole movie, but that takes forever.
    Anyone know what the solution is? Any way to get something like AC3Filter to work on a MegaView? Any suggestions appreciated!
    Thanks

    Quote from: Stu on 19-September-06, 05:14:25
    most firmware requests that people make, such as the one at the start of this topic, are simply impractical due to copyright and licensing issues
    its not a case of MSI not being able to issue firmware updates as and when; if the current firmware code works, then why fix it? i'd feel much more confident buying a product that had no firmware upgrades than one that had loads to fix silly little issues.
    there are so many diffferent video and audio codecs out there that to provide support for them all would be near impossible, if not illegal without the relevant license
    Hi and thanks for the relevant response. As I stated, I'm happy with the MSI Megaview. And yes, the firmware code works. But clearly there is room for improvement as a movie with a DC3 soundtrack will not have audio. I guess it's in the eye of the beholder if the lack of audio is a silly little issue or a major annoyance. It's not the end of the world...after all, it's just a movie . I guess I was hoping that there may be some way that I could modify something so that these movies will have sound (without having to reencode the entire movie); that perhaps there is a workaround that would not involve a firmware or software update / upgrade from MSI. For example, with Windows, you simply download and install the codecs or something like AC3 Filter or AC3 Decoder. Do you know of any such workaround?
    I judge from your response that installing or updating codecs is not possible to do on the Megaview 561?
    Thanks again for the help. Cheers

  • Audio files not embedding with .avi files in CS4

    I am working on a project in Premiere Pro CS4. I successfully captured with firewire a number of clips and the audio embedded with the clip ( one .avi file shows up in explorer under the project. When I went back into the project, first, there was no audio captured at all and I did'nt notice until I had captured half of the clips (45 minutes). I don't know what happened there. Now, the audio is attached to the .avi file, but is not embedded like the previous captured files.   Example First capture: File Name : Harlem 01.avi  audio is embedded   2nd Capture  Guilford 01.avi  and Guilford 01. Stereo 1.wav
    Why aren't the .avi files and the audio files embedded and combined as one file anymore?
    Thanks for any help.

    >Matrox card
    The comment I have often seen is to the effect that "a Matrox card makes a good door stop"
    For a Firewire transfer you don't need any "card" at all, only a Firewire port... usually on the motherboard
    That said... and you mentioning switching back and forth between different Matrox modes... I would guess that, yes, you selected a wrong option
    But, since I don't use Matrox, I have no idea what setting could be wrong (I do use a Pinnacle Dv500 via dual boot with WinXP to digitize some old VHS tapes before they stop playing... but once I had settings that worked to create AVI files that ARE Audio Video Interleave with everything in one file, I have never changed any of the Dv500 settings)

  • Encore adds random static (Popping and Crackling) to audio from AVI files

    We spend the whole day today trying to debug this problem... any help would be greatly appreciated.
    We have a large conversion project where we are capturing VHS videos and converting them to DVD.
    For those that require chapters, we are using Encore CS4.
    All of the videos were captured the same way, in an AVI format.
    We have found that when we load them into an Encore CS4 timeline, we will hear random static sounds -- pops in the audio.
    We believe the AVI file is clean.  We can watch the video in Windows Media Player, and the audio is fine.  We can burn the AVI file to a DVD video using another low-end package (Power Director) and the DVD is fine.  The AVI files have been run on other systems, and the audio crackling sound does not present itself.
    But when we try to use Encore, some of the files exhibit the crackling sound.  (Note that not all of the files have this problem.  But those that do exhibit the problems will exhibit them every time.)
    We tried loading them into Premier -- same thing.
    So, this problem seems to be limited to Adobe tools.
    We are running Windows 7 on an Intel i7, ATI Radeon card... a really fast, strong, stable system.
    At this point we're not sure what to try...
    We have attempted to pre-encode them using Adobe Media Encoder.  Same results, regardless of which audio settings we try.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!
