Clip won't play audio in timeline

I can play and skim my clips in the event browser fine and can hear the audio, but when i bring it down in to the timeline the audio does not play only the clip, and yes in the toolbar the for the pop up menu for the append buttons all is selected, so both audio and video appear in the timeline...
Cold someone assist please?

The same thing is happening to me, just as Allan first described:
I can play and skim my clips in the event browser fine and can hear the audio, but when I bring it down into the timeline, the audio doesn't play, nor does a WAV form appear in the timeline. Once in the timeline, the clip only shows/plays the video without sound.
This is an entirely new problem for me ... Any help?

  • Video clips won't play back after capture

    I am a long-time user of Premiere Elements, currently using version 9.0. I am capturing video clips from the same videocamera that I've used in previous versions of PE. My video clips won't play back after I capture them. The clip is in my "media" area, but when I try to play it back, the audio plays but the picture remains frozen on the starting image. What is happening?

    It is a Sony Handycam DCR-HC28, mini DV, using a firewire connection.
    Operating System is Windows XP Pro, Service Pack 3, system specs are SATA 2 RAID 1 with dual 1 TB hard drives. 4 GB RAM. As far as how fast my processor is, I looked on my invoice and it says, "Intel Core2 processor Q6600 (2.4 Ghz, 1066 FSB) with Quad Core technology and 8 MB cache, 4 GB DDR2 SDRAM at 800 MHz.
    I defragmented my hard drive before beginning and have 779 GB or 83 percent free space on hard drive.
    I have not placed my video clips on the timeline yet so don't know if there is a red line on top, indicating it hasn't been rendered. I merely wanted to play back my clip to set "in" and "out" points. This has never happened before in my long history of using Premiere Elements. Would prefer not to have to go back to PE 8, as that was a disaster.

  • I am having problems using mov files imported into a project. I get the message "Not rendered" in the Canvas and clip won't play. Can anyone help?

    I am having problems using mov files imported into a project. I get the message "Not rendered" in the Canvas and clip won't play. Can anyone help?

    When clips won't play without rendering in the Timeline, it usually means that the clip's specs don't match the Sequence settings.
    A .mov file could be made from any number of codecs; the QuickTime Movie designation is merely a container for video files of all kinds.  Since FCE only works with the QuickTime DV codec and the Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC) natively, if your mov files aren't one of those two, you need to convert them PRIOR to importing into your FCE project.

  • Why won't iMovie voiceover clips won't play sound!

    I've been using iMovie '11 version 9.0.9, to make a school assignment. I started two days ago and it was allw orking perfectly fine, until today when some of the clips won't play. It started after I deleted a voiceover clip to replace it with a song from itunes. When I tried to add the song it showed that it was there but it played no sound. I managed to get that song working by dragging the song onto the whole project and then dragging and pinning it onto the parts I needed it.
    After I got that working I tried to add new voiceover clips to the project but then there was no sund coming from that clip either! After about an hour of searching and fiddling I had just about given up when I played my project in the background and ran it through untill the end and I heard the last clip I added, that wasn't working before but now is.
    At this point I recorded another clip to add thinking my problem was fixed, but alas that voicover clip played no sound. I thought I might try running through the entire project again to see if that would help like the last time. But no, that was not the case, in fact even more sound clips have stopped working.
    I read in a lot of other threads that it might be a corrupt clip and it will have a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in it (or a spinnign circle?), but none of the clips have this! Is there something I need to do to see the triangle, if that is the problem? Or is it something completely different?
    Please help me I desperately need to get this working by tonight!

    Sorry, but there's a dedicated discussion forum for iMovie, where you might be luckier finding help.

  • Flash won't play audio. Please help!

    To anyone who can help,
    Flash won't play audio in Firefox, Chrome, Safari etc. Downloaded audio plays just fine but I can't stream any flash audio content. Does anybody have any solutions? Any help would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Ben

    I'm experiencing the same problem on Snow Leopard 10.6.8.  If I go to YouTube, I don't get audio.  Other websites are fine (I'm not seeing a pattern on exactly which sites).  What I had to do was uninstall Adobe Flash (I used the Adobe Uninstall utility).  Now I have audio on YouTube, but now I'm getting a lot of 'missing plugin' messages from other websites.  I've opened
    To asiatic43, you can get the latest Adobe Flash at

  • IOS 6.0.1 Safari won't play audio files. Error: "Cannot play audio file."

    I recently updated my iPad to iOS 6.0.1, now Safari won't play audio files in any format. Error: "Cannot play audio file." Previously, it worked fine. I tried downloading and using GoogleChrome and Opera Mini, and these also won't play audio. What's up??

    Solved the problem. It seems that once iOS 6.0.1 installed, it caused all of my browsers to mishandle audio files. When I reset the iPad, that cleared up the problem.
    Before upgrading to iOS 6, my browsers would "autoplay" the sound files. After iOS 6, "autoplay" is disabled so you have to manually click play to play them.
    Nonetheless, everything is working fine again except for "autoplay," which I can live with.

  • Audio "sub-clips" won't play in source monitor, but will play when cut into a sequence.

    I'm cutting an "audio only" project in Premiere and I came across a strange problem while making sub-clips. The first 6 sub clips made from the same master audio clip were normal, but then something changed, and the rest of them won't play any sound while in the "Source" window, even though while in the window the sub-clip displays a waveform.
    Once edited into a sequence they play normally, but not being able to listen to the sub clips in the source monitor is annoying, and louses up my whole editing routine for this kind of project.
    Any ideas as to why this is happening, or what I might do to fix it?

    Number of issues here:
    1. Your system does not meet minimum requirements.
    2. Your CPU, disks, memory are not enough for anything other than DV.
    3. What video camera was used with what codec on what OS with which version of PR. etc.
    Some suggestions... and answer at least the 16 questions at the end of the Wiki article.

  • QuickTime 7 Audio Issue (Won't play audio in certain video clips)

    I'm having a problem getting audio to play with clips in QuickTime 7, and it doesn't play at all in iDVD when I drag a clip in to burn a DVD. I'm also having problems getting Final Cut Pro to play audio from time to time. Is this being caused by a recent Apple security update or is there something else going on?

    Quicktime Kirk,
    I have downloaded another persons inquiry because it is exactly the problem I am having. Here is his post
    "I make movies of cells and convert them to quick time and insert them into powerpoint for presentations for conferences. I never had a problem with this until I upgraded to office 2004 and now many (but not all) of my movies won't play. They seem to be there but when I click play they go white as though there is only the first image. I had saved them as cinepak and or jpeg A usually with image J or older ones from the original NIH image and I can't figure out what the problem is. I even upgraded to quicktime pro to resave them as self contained but still they don't work when I insert them. I can play them all with quicktime player and when I make new ones now in image j I save them as video and that seems to work but it would be very difficult to go back and do that with everything. Does anyone know why or how to fix this?"
    My additional comments would be I used the Sample_iTunes.mov from QT and it plays like a champ in PPT. My movies are all from 2004. When I save them in the QT 7.1.3 it doesn't seem to make any difference. The older movies insert into PPT as a QT icon with 4 color quadriant. Everything including .swf are now working in QT. Thanks for your help. When I go back to 7.0.3 they work but then I can't play my videos in iTunes unless I do an erase and a reinstall to get rid of the updated iTunes. Thanks

  • Embedded audio and video clips won't play in a pdf doc.

    I have an EPK with embedded clips that won't play. I've udated all my software, and followed the isntructions for allowing 3rd party content ot be stored. Macbook Pro with all updates installed.

    The "wm" part of the file extension is a Windows Media Player format.
    They are not compatible in QuickTime without third party software help.
    http://flip4mac.com is the Microsoft recommended method for Mac users to view WMP formats and they offer a "beta" version for Snow Leopard users.
    Your AVI file has the same troubles but the fix may be a bit easier to fix:
    http://perian.org (for the codecs) and the older QuickTime Player.
    To install QuickTime Player you use your Snow Leopard DVD and the "Optional Installs" package.
    It will install in your Utilities folder.

  • Some clips won't play and audio is red

    iMovie 10.05  (OS 10.9.5)- Mac Pro
    I was working on a project in iMove- seemed to be going ok.
    Then some of the new clips would not play video  and the audio has a red bar in it.
    also the yellow triangle with '!' in it showing some error- but no place that says what the error really is...
    I don't like the new iMovie- but need it for the effects (I think iMovie 6 is a LOT easier to use)
    Anyone have this happen?

  • Audio won't play off the timeline

    I have been working with a 17min. project shot in HDV and edited w FCP 6. I have tried a few different ways to get it out to DVD Pro through Compressor. I also tried to convert it from HDV to DV so I could take it back out to tape as a DV project. I went back to the project and tried to do another compressed version for DVD after being unsuccesful converting it to DV. So when I went to Compress it to a DVD there was no audio on the DVD. I went back into the FCP project and found that the audio does not play off the timeline anymore. The audio waves are still on the timeline and when I double click on the timeline it plays in my viewer. i checked the audio outputs but the audio is not showing on the LEDs in the audio mixer. Did something get changed because of my trying to export it?

    If none of the above suggestions work toggle on the Audio Controls speaker icon (see image below) and if the speakers icon appear yellow single click them (same action can be performed in the audio mixer.

  • Video clip won't follow Audio clip on timeline

    Hi,
    When i drag a clip onto the timeline, the video clip for example ends up on track V1 and the audio on A1 and A2. So far so good. But when I want to drag my video clip to track V2, one would expect the audio clip to move to A3 and A4. This does NOT happen. The audio clips are still on track A1 and A2. Does anyone have a solution for this?

    While I know of no way to move both the audio and video tracks up or down together, I can offer two ways get them on the desired tracks in the first place:
    when dragging, hover the mouse over the track you want to the clip to land on
    In the Timeline, set Source Patching to the desired tracks, then use the Insert or Overlay command instead of drag-n-drop.
    Once a clip is in a sequence on the "wrong" track, as far as I'm aware you're stuck moving the audio and video separately. I encourage you to submit a feature request: www.adobe.com/go/wish (and that's not just a canned suggestion; I'd love to have a shortcut for doing this!)

  • Clips won't play at correct time

    Hi,
    So a while ago, iMovie HD was working just fine, but then it started messing up the timing of my project. I am making a slideshow that is 15 minutes long right now and will get longer. I only use still pictures, music, and titles (no Ken Burns or transitions). Now, when the playhead is at the start of a pic, the photo won't play until about 3 seconds later. Sometimes, when the photo is playing at the wrong time, a different picture flashes. Basically, the duration of the pictures is all different, even though i set them all to have a 3 second duration.
    I'm very confused why this is happening, because the same problem is happening to all my imovie HD files, not just the one. However, only pictures are delayed, not video clips or title sequences.
    How can I fix this?

    Hi
    OK - I can give it a guess.
    • Trash preference file - and/or -
    • Repair Permissions
    • Free space on start-up hard disk >>10Gb
    this takes care about 95% of people with this problem. If it still persists after this
    it will be more tricky.
    My general list on this
    *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
    • Delete iMovie pref file
    iMovie pref file resides.
    Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
    and is named. (one or more of these)
    com.apple.iMovie.plist
    com.apple.iMovie3.plist
    com.apple.iMovie7.plist
    com.apple.iMovie8.plist
    and find
    com.apple.iApps.plist
    While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this/these file/s out to desk-top.
    Now restart iMovie.
    • Hard disk is untidy. Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
    • Garageband-fix. Start it, Play a note and Close it. Re-try (Corrects an audio problem that hinders iMovie)
    • Screen must be set to Million-colors
    • Turn off Mac and disconnect Mains/Power for 20-30 minutes - will at least re-set FW-port
    • Third party plug-ins that doesn't work OK (not relevant for iMovie’08 or 09)
    • Problems in iPhoto Library can affect iMovie to crash on start-up. Re-build this first then try to re-start iMovie.
    This You do by
    _ close iPhoto
    _ on start up of iPhoto - Keep {cmd and alt-keys down}
    _ now select all five options presented
    _ WAIT a long long time
    • iMovie updated ?
    • QuickTime updated ?
    • Mac OS version ?
    • Program miss-match. iMovie 4 - will not work under Leopard
    • Program miss-match. iMovie 5.0.2, up to Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK
    • Program miss-match. iMovie 6.0.3 or 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (will work under Leopard and Snow-Leopard)
    • Program miss-match. iMovie’08 v. 7.1.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.5.5 - is OK (will work under Leopard and Snow-Leopard)
    • Program miss-match. iMovie’09 v. 8.0.6, Mac OS X.5.8 AND QuickTime 7.6.4 - is OK (will work under Leopard and Snow-Leopard)
    From LKN 1935. (in this case = iMovie HD (5), I tried it all, but nothing worked.
    Your answer (above) has been helpfull insofar as all the different trials led to the conclusion that
    there was something wrong with my iMovie software. I therefore threw everything away and reinstalled
    iMovie from the HD. After that the exportation of DV videos (there has not been any problem with HDV videos)
    to my Sony camcorders worked properly as it did before.
    Lennart Thelander
    I run "Cache Out X", clear out all caches and restarts the Mac.

  • Video Clips won't play

    Although Premiere 9 with all updates installed, worked fine a few weeks ago now none of the video clips will play.
    I imported a bunch of new clips without a problem but they won't play.  My computer is new with lots of memory.  The files are mpeg and the cam corder is a Panasonic HDC-TM60.  I thought perhaps it was these new clips, but my old projects load without a problem but they won't play either.  I just see the thumbnail.  There is no sound.  If I scroll, the clip moves so it is the clip and not just a still as I thought might be the problem.  Any ideas?
    Michael

    I seem to have solved this problem.  Premiere does not seem to like the MOTU audio interface I use for my song recording/composing.
    When I switched the sound playback to the internal onboard sound card I once again had sound and video.  Not sure why but I've got it working.

  • Final cut clips won't play- why?

    I am editing on final cut x and two clips in my timeline won't play - they look dead or are faint and sort of a dark back colour  - what have I done wrong to make them refuse to play? Cant hear or see them on the viewer - even though they look(while a bit blackened out) to be still in the timeline?
