BOTH My DVDs Lose Audio During Movie...Menu Works...What Am I Doing Wrong?

I have two movies. Both of which lose their audio while in the middle of the movie. The menu audio works well as well as the first 20 minutes of the movie...
What am I doing wrong?

I think that anybody who tries to give you a definitive answer without having more data would just be guessing. For example, I cannot determine from your post whether you have one long musical piece in your audio track or two or more songs. If more than one song, does one of them consistently not play at the same exact point, but the others do play? Have you tried isolating all or part of the audio track in an experimental DVD to see what plays and what doesn't? And whether there are any differences in the properties of the songs that play and don't play? Have you had this problem with any other projects? You can't solve your problem until you know what you are dealing with.
So, if you have a song that plays, and one that doesn't play, put the two songs together in an experimental DVD and see what happens. If they both play, then the problem is likely related to your initial DVD project, suggesting that you should recreate the project. If the same song still does not play, then the issue likely is related to that specific song in some way. Check the properties of the two songs to find out how they are different, including the source from where you got them. Try to resolve any differences. In the event that you can't resolve the differences, or there are no perceivable differences, then dump the song that doesn't play and put in another one, preferably that has the same properties as the song that does play. If it doesn't work, you are no worse off and you have some data to suggest that the problem may not be related to the specific song and can direct your energies in that direction.

  • Created project in imovie. Trying to move to iDVD to burn. the project in imovies is great. When I view the project in iDVD the audio is messed up. What am I doing wrong?

    I created project in imovie 10. When I send it to idvd to burn copy the audio is not in right places. Some muted audio is not muted and other audio clips are with wrong video clips. I don't know what I am doing wrong. Help.

    I'm not sure what you mean by iMovie 10 (there is no such version). However, if you mean iMovie '09 (version 8) or iMovie '11 (version 9) there is a fix I can suggest.
    If you have used slow motion or fast motion in your video, you MUST use only the presets on the speed slider, which are: 12.5%, 25%, 50%, 100%, 200%, 400% and 800%.
    If you have used custom settings by manually entering speed percentages (different to the presets), you will almost certainly experience audio glitches in the exported movie. These glitches are not evident in preview (before sharing) but appear only in the exported movie (as you have experienced).
    The fix is to re-visit your project and adjust all speed changes to the preferred preset percentage. This can be a pain, as you may have to re-sync video and audio - but it is the only fix (unless you want to go through a very convoluted process). After adjusting the speeds to the presets, you will of course have to re-export the project.
    Note that the glitch is well known in iMovie '09, but may have been fixed in iMovie '11. Which version are you using?

  • When I drag a loop into the arrange area, it sounds completely different from how it sounds in the loop menu.  What am I doing wrong.  (I've started using Logic 9 today)

    When I drag a loop into my arrange area, it no longer sounds the way it did in my loops menu. 

    Hi, do you mean song key wise not sounding the same? Then this might be the reason:

  • I have a late 2008 MacBook I would like to watch movies on my tv from.  I bought the HDMI cables and the one to use for audio also but I still don't get any sound.  What am I doing wrong?

    Hi Maryan,
    Open System Preferences > Displays > select the window for you external monitor > click on the Arrangement tab and check the box next to Mirror Displays. It may be slightly different in Lion, but the idea is the same.

  • I purchased and successfully downloaded Caravan Palace - Caravan Palace and Panic. Both albums skip and cutout during playback. Q: what's happening and why?

    I purchased and successfully downloaded Caravan Palace - Caravan Palace and Panic. Both albums skip and cutout during playback. Q: what's happening and why?

    Sounds like a corrupt download.
    From iPad:
    Delete the albums: swipe you finger across and tap delete
    Make sure you have a good internet connection & re-download: Open iTunes app > More > Purchased
    From computer:
    Delete the albums: Select > right-click > delete
    Go to iTunes Store > Purchased (in Quick Links on the right)

  • After I make a trailer or movie on my Iphone 4S and try to save it to the camera roll, I get a message that "an error occurred during export".  The message appears after the piece has seeminly finished exporting.  What am I doing wrong???

    After I make a trailer or movie on my Iphone 4S using IMovie and try to save it to the camera roll, I get the message "An error occurred during export."  The message appears after the piece has seemingly finished exporting.  What am I doing wrong????

    I appreciate you taking the time to copy and paste boilerplate responses to increase your points in this forum, but I've already read all those support articles in depth; but you have barely read my post at all. Please don't guess a fix. Only someone with the latest versions of iMovie, iOS, iPhone, Yosemite, and MacBook Pro is qualified to troubleshoot this, because anyone would immediately see that the following option no longer exists:
    Open iMovie on your Mac, and choose File > Import > iMovie for iOS Project.
    Read my post before you reply: It clearly says in the title and within my post that I can neither export nor import through iTunes without receiving an error message. So your response neither solved my question nor helped me whatsoever.

  • I have an older Sony digital camcorder, and I am having trouble importing the movie files. Sometimes I get the audio in iTunes without the picture. I have a Pinnacle Dazzle interface. What am I doing wrong. Is there a way to skip the dazzle device?

    I have an older Sony digital camcorder, and I am having trouble importing the movie files. Sometimes I get the audio in iTunes without the picture. I have a Pinnacle Dazzle interface. What am I doing wrong. Is there a way to skip the dazzle device?

    Chances are the pinnacle is producing .avi files or MPEFG1/2 streams - iTunes may know how to decode the audio but not the video. Download Handbrake and try running the Pinnacle files through it and adding to iTunes - use Universal format unless you have a specific device in mind.
    Keep copies of the originals.
    Another option might be to try to install Perian.  Can't remember if the Apple MPEG2 plugin allows MPEG2 to be played in iTunes.

  • Burning a DVD  what am I doing wrong

    When trying to burn a dvd I am getting the following message... "There was an error during rendering/encoding of the menus/slideshows. The burning process has been canceled" What am I doing wrong???

    Hi
    *Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows:*
    • Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
    • Hard disk is untidy: Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
    • Delete iDVD pref file - or rather start a new user/account - log into this and re-try
    • Program miss-match: iDVD 5.0.2, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.5 - is OK - DON’T work under Leopard
    • Program miss-match: iDVD 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
    • Program miss-match: iDVD’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.5 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
    • iDVD (08) v7 Locate theme folder. Move out iDVD1, iDVD 2 and eventually iDVD4 folders to desktop - re-try
    iDVD 6.0.4 and iDVD 7.0.1 are compatible with Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard
    • Using a Cleaning CD/DVD once in a while
    iDVD pref file resides: Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
    and is named: com.apple.iDVD.plist
    While iDVD is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
    Now restart iDVD.

  • Trying to connect a Belkin brand audio cable from my MacBook Pro to a Sony flatscreen TV. Cannot get any sound from the laptop out of the TV. What am I doing wrong?

    I'm trying to connect a Belkin brand stereo audio cable from my MacBook Pro to a Sony flatscreen TV (Apple "genius" handed me the cable to purchase.)  I have tried all the ports in the back of the Sony, and tried the volume on both the cable and TV remotes. I cannot get sound out of the Sony from my MacBook Pro laptop. What am I doing wrong???

    Downloaded your operating manual.  It appears that you need to connect the HDMI to HDMI 1 and the audio to the input socket just to the right of the VGA socket (i.e., between the VGA and the RF input connection).  The picture on page13 seems to be the clearest I could find:
    Although it's not exactly clear I think they are talking about a standard 3.5 mm (1/8") stereo jack for the audio inpu as opposed to the more common RCA jacks used in the row just above that VGA input socket.
    I haven't checked the manual as yet whether you need to set anything special with the controls other than input select.
    Note, if that truly is a 3.5 mm stereo jack cables are very common.  In your case it would just be a cable with a 3.5 mm jack on each end.
    Update:
    You will have to experiment with this but I think you will need to try pusing the input button to select either HDMI1 or PC (or Component?).  The manual is not clear on this (page 31).  Sometimes it just comes down to pushing buttons.

  • I'm trying to install the new version, but each time during the installation, "Error writing to file: C:/Program Files (x86)/Common Files/Apple/Mobile Device/Support/AppleMobileDeviceHelper.resources/Info.plist." Keeps popping up. What am I doing wrong?

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • When I use lightroom to create a slideshow the aspect ratio is wrong when i burn it to DVD.  What am i doing wrong?

    I use Lightroom to create a slideshow and then export it to software to burn to DVD to play on a TV.  When i view it on a computer the pictures are fine, when i view them on the TV the aspect ration is wrong.  Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong please?  Thanks

    The template is a document in itself, it is not applied to an existing document whether it is a Pages document or a Word document converted to a Pages document.
    You would need to either copy and paste content, using existing styles, or apply the styles to the converted Word document.
    You can Import the Styles from an existing document and those imported Styles can be used to override the current document's styles:
    Menu > Format > Import Styles
    The process is simplified if the styles use the same names, otherwise you will need to delete the style you don't want and replace it with the one that you do want when asked, then the substitution is pretty straightforward.

  • I bought a movie, but I can't find it to watch. I can't even buy another one. What am I doing wrong?

    I bought a movie, but I can't find it to watch. I can't even buy another one. What am I doing wrong?

    In fact, now I just see: INTERNET, COMPUTADOR (PC) e AJUSTES (MENU/SETTINGS) - I'm brazilian and I'm not so sure about the name of MENU in EUA Apple TV.
    Anyway, I remember that until yesterday I could see FILMES (MOVIES) at the first MENU, and now it's no longer available.
    Do you know what's happening?

  • When I try to record audio with Soundflower, the recording has no audio. What am I doing wrong?

    I am an amateur DJ trying to record a mix made in Cross DJ. I followed a tutorial instructing me to use Soundflower to route my system audio to QuickTime and have had no problem routing. Yet when I record the audio with QuickTime, the recording plays no audio. What am I doing wrong? I really need this mix recorded and I have no intention of downloading extra software.

    This is because you have Punch on the fly enabled under Options (top menu)>Audio>Punch on the Fly.... signified by the letter P instead of the letter R
