Capturing audio from avi file

I want to capture just the audio from avi file. Here is what I did. I dragged the avi into garage band and saw a separate audio and video track. I tried to import the just the audio into itunes but it would only let me import both video and audio. I decided to burn the audio to cd and then import it into itunes. This seemed to work but I would like to know if there is a better method. I figure there must be. Anybody out there tried this?

i'm not near my GB machine to test this, but see if you can Share to Disk and make sure the Compress checkBox is not selected.

  • 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!

  • No audio from avi file-PE4 & Vista 64

    I looked at the post for this topic from Adobe. Did all the steps regarding the audio driver for not hearing audio from ALL clips. I can hear any sound from the headphones jack for ANY audio device. And the AVI file plays back with sound in WMPlayer and in Windows Movie Maker. When I go to Preferences, Audio hardware, default device - the ONLY device listed is the Premier Elements Windows Sound. Beneath it is the ASIO settings. That contains the proper setting for the Realtech sound card. I am not able to select the ASIO device as the new default device. I followed the Adobe post closely but I still get no sound output from PE4. What next?

    I do show the ASIO button in the Audio Hardware window.
    The only reason that mine does not show on the screen-cap is because it fades out in the GUI, when it's open.
    Did we determine that when this file is played, in say WMP, you do get Audio? Unfortunately, with the new forum software, I can't see anything, except the post to which I am replying.    [Edit] Yes we did.
    Did you have any luck with ASIO4ALL?

  • PE 10 missing audio from *.avi files?

    Hi,
      New PE 10 installation.  When I add a *.avi file to the timeline or sceneline, I am missing the audio tracks.

  • Lost audio from AVI file

    I have Quicktime PRO and need to edit some avi files. Upon opening up some DIVX files, I have lost the audio. Their is a prompt saying I need some plug ins and dropped me on the quicktime plugin page. I read through all the plug ins but I am not sure what the problem is.

  • Capturing Audio from DAT

    Hello,
    I'm trying to capture audio from a DAT deck (Tascam DA-20) into FCP HD by routing it through my JVC BR-DV600U DV deck (RCA output from DAT, RCA input to DV deck, Firewire into FCP).
    The DV deck's input is set to line-in, and the audio is being routed through (audio meters on DV deck mimic those on DAT deck, and I can hear the audio through the headphones jacked into my DV deck).
    However, when I try to capture the audio on FCP, I am unsuccessful, prompting the following window from FCP: "Error: Final Cut Pro HD was unable to read the movie file just captured."
    Now, I use the same set up I described above to capture footage from my Beta deck into FCP with no problems (route Beta signal through DV deck and firewire it into FCP). This leads me to believe that perhaps the glitch lies within my Capture Presets.
    At first, I tried to capture the signal as an Audio-Only DV NTSC 48 Khz/Non-controllable device. After that failed, I tried to create my own capture preset, but am not sure it will make a difference, as the only input choices I am given are DV Audio, Built-In Audio, and None.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Why not capture the audio content outside of FCP, check the sample rate for 48Khz/16-bit, convert if necessary, save as an AIFF file, and then import that resulting sound file into FCP?
    Any good audio app, including STP will do captures.
    You are probably going to need to do some cleanup on the audio anyway before you use it, so why not just use an audio app to do it beforehand?
    Besides, if you have an audio device (PCI card or Firewire device) in your Mac, you can use the S/PDIF port for your connection to the DAT and do a digital transfer when you import.
    As I understand the way you are doing it now, you are taking digital content from the DAT, converting it to analog for the connection into your deck, and then re-converting it into digital when you capture it back into FCP.
    One big advantage of digital audio (and video) is to avoid generation loss and added noise during transfer if you go D-to-D.
    If you don't have an audio card or Firewire A/D audio I/O device with S/PDIF ports in your Mac, then see if you can find a friend who has one and can do the transfer for you. Then he can give you the file on a CD-ROM.
    That's what I'd do.

  • Burning DVD's from .avi files

    What exactly do I have to do to use iDVD 6 to make a DVD from .avi files?

    What exactly do I have to do to use iDVD 6 to make a
    DVD from .avi files?
    The .AVI format is just a wrapper for many different ways of storing audio/video - some 'flavors' work in iMovie/iDVD and some don't.
    I have a video camera that produces a 'flavor' of .AVI file that requires VisualHub at http://www.techspansion.com/visualhub/ so that I can convert the files into DV video files that CAN be used in iMovie/iDVD.

  • No longer audio on .avi files when attempting to use Elements 9

    I have compiled 20 years of videos from family videos and converted them to .avi files.  I now want to edit these files into other smaller videos to give to my children.  I have Premiere Elements 9.  When I get one of these files using PE9 there is no longer audio on them. 
    There is audio if I play them on Windows Media Player but no audio on Quicktime Player. 
    I can edit in Windows Movie Maker but not in PE9.
    The Quicktime Player states the following:
    Format: Motion JPEG Open DML, 640 x 480, millions
    Movie FPS 29.97
    Playing FPS 29.97
    Data Size 1.94 gb
    Data Rate 8.67 mbits/sec
    Normal Size 640 x 480 pixels
    Current Size 640 x 480 pixels
    I have a Dell Inspiron 530, 4.0 gb RAM, 32- Bit Windows Vista system.  Plenty of Hard Drive availability.
    I purchased PE9 because I thought it would be superior to Windows Movie Maker.  Very frustrated.

    Hi Bill,
    The .avi file is a compilation of videos from multiple cameras from over the years.  There is no 1 camera.  That is why I am confused here.

    What camera produced the MJPEG files, wrapped in the AVI container? The reason that I ask this, is because camera mfgrs. love to tweak CODEC's, and some take that tweaking to an extreme. If you have the utility disc, that came with the camera, it is probably best to install their particular version of the MJPEG CODEC. The Morgan, or the MainConcept might work OK, but having the exact version, from the camera mfgr. will get you as close, as is possible, and will save having to buy an MJPEG CODEC, that might not be perfect. Now, on that utility disc, one might have one of three possible choices: The MJPEG CODEC might be a separate installationThe MJPEG CODEC might install along with the camera's driverThe MJPEG CODEC might install with an included editing/cataloguing program (most common nowadays), and even if you do not use that utility, having the proper version of the MJPEG CODEC installed on the system, will get you as close, as is possible Good luck, and let us know if you have the utility disc for that camera.

  • Using Flex to capture audio from Flash

    Hi!
    I've been trying for a while to figure out how to capture audio from a flash-application (http://www.delorean.se/mixer)
    and store it as a mp3-file.
    Since I've studied Java for 2 years I thought I'd try and use it to capture the audio but I'm running into problems all the time,
    and I've been advised to look up Flex by other Java users.
    So, I got some questions:
    Is Flex a good tool to use to capture audio from flash-applications and store the audio as a mp3-file?
    Is Flex hard to learn (I've been working with Eclipse for a long time so the IDE shouldn't be a problem and learning another language/framework is always nice)
    Any tips in general?
    Any answers would make me very happy!
    Thanks!

    physical are closed : how will it managed the queues and overspill queues when target is not present? Also the data dictionary must reflect the primary but If you run capture, then you introduce rules that are not on primary: How ?

  • Ripping audio from AVI

    Hi,
    I wasn't sure where to post this question. I didn't see a forum that looked apropriate, and since I'm using an iMac G5 I thought this one was as good as any other. So, what I'm after is software that will allow me to extract audio from AVIs, MPGs, etc. Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Andrew

    Hi,
    Just wanted to follow up on my original post. I first tried using a freeware AVI spitter called Explicit, then importing the 9-12 minute pieces into iMovie. There was a few problems with this method, though. First, it took around 15 minutes to import one 9-12 minute AVI segment. Second, after it was imported and converted into DV format (the format iMovie uses) it was something like a gig in size. Lastly, the audio, the thing I was after, was completely mangled. So, I downloaded Divx Doctor 2, converted the AVI, and then was able to use Peak (a great audio editing program by BIAS) and was able to extract all the audio and save it as AIFF. I could have actually saved it to any one of several formats, at 16 or 24 bits, for those who aren't familiar with the program. By the way, you can convert more than AVIs with Divx Doctor 2.
    Thanks so much for the link! Hopefully this info will help someone else looking for to get samples from movies.

  • Capture Audio from Mic

    I am new to Java and need to know where to start with developing a Java app that can capture audio from a pc's mic, convert it to mp3, name the audio, and store it in a directory of my choosing. Additionally, I'll need an interface to that audio app that can receive function calls and args from a windows-based application.
    Can you point me in the right direction- sample code if possible.
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    I have the same problem. There doesn't seem to be any sample code for capturing an audio recording with JMF! I have browsed the web, the usenet groups and the (physical) library. It's almost like they try to keep it secret :/
    There is plenty of information on how to use the JMF player, though.

  • Capturing audio from telephone for use in FCP

    My requirement is quite specific, and so far none of previous posts seem to answer my question. So...
    I'm looking to capture audio from my telephone for use in FCP. It won't be a telephone conversation, but a voice text. In other words, an SMS sent to a landline. The audio is saved as a voice message on the answer machine. My phone / answer machine is fairly basic - it has a speaker and the only ports it has is for power and the telephone line itself. I have tried a very basic method of playing the message on speaker and capturing it on a mini DV - but that results in too much audio edit to get it to sound acceptable. My Mac is a G5 and I have the full FC studio, but just not sure of best way to get audio onto the Mac without losing too much of the sound quality.
    Any suggestions?
    Many thanks all...
