Convert to MPEG2 Combined Audio and Video
I am editing a commercial that needs to end up in MPEG2 with combined audio and video. What is the process by which I do this. Obviously compressor splits the audio and video, but I need it combined.
Been there, done that.
I know the layout of Compressor 2 was different - can't remember if these presets were added for 3. Have you looked for Program Stream presets under Compressor 2?
Here's a thread I found on the Cow - says that after you use Compressor 2.3 to create your MPEG and AUDIO files, use MPEG Streamclip to mux them.

Hope that helps, I gotta get to bed. Good luck,

Combined Audio and Video bitrate question
When combining audio and video, how does the bitrate of the audio affect the calculation of the total bitrate? If I set my video compression bitrate at 5.5/7.5, how should those numbers be altered if I have, say, two Dolby Digital 2.0 streams at 192kbs each and a 5.1 surround stream at 448kbs?
From the DVD Studio Pro User Manual (p. 43):
Beware of Setting Your Bit Rate Too High
You will find that with some DVD projects, the content easily fits on the disc, and you may be tempted to use the highest video bit rate available. While higher bit rates produce better quality, you must take into account other factors before deciding to use the maximum allowable value.
The maximum video bit rate allowed on SD-based DVDs is 9.8 Mbps, but rarely is that practical to use since DVD players support combined video, audio, and subtitle bit rates of up to 10.08 Mbps. For HD-based DVDs, the maximum video bit rate is 29.4 Mbps for HD assets and 15.0 Mbps for any SD assets used in an HD project, with an overall maximum bit rate of 30.24 Mbps.
In practice, you should be conservative when determining how high of a bit rate to allow for. Trying to squeeze out the highest possible bit rate for your project can lead to player compatibility and disc space issues. A general recommendation is to not exceed 9.2 Mbps for the combined video and audio bit rates when authoring SD projects, or 29 Mbps when authoring HD projects.
Important: If you are building your project and DVD Studio Pro detects that the bit rate of the multiplexed stream is too high, the build stops and an error message appears.
Using PCM or AC-3 Audio
A single PCM audio stream using typical settings (as produced with the embedded AIFF encoder) requires 1.536 Mbps, which leaves an absolute maximum bit rate for the video in an SD project of around 8.54 Mbps. If there are two PCM audio streams, 3.07 Mbps must be allowed for the audio, leaving just 7.01 Mbps for the video.
Note: Even though you can only play one audio stream at a time, the bit rates of all audio streams must be added together when determining the overall bit rate for a track. Similarly, all subtitle streams must be added together and added to the overall bit rate.
Using AC-3 audio in place of the PCM audio leaves far more room for the video bit rate. Stereo AC-3 audio using typical settings requires only about 224 kbps—using two stereo AC-3 streams in place of the PCM audio leaves about 9.6 Mbps for the video.
See “Calculate the audio allowances” on page 636 for more information about allowances for other audio formats.
Hope this helps
Good luck! -

How do you combine audio and video files?
I've brought in a video file and an audio file, but can find no way to specify that they are a single source that should be compressed together. The documentation was of no use. How do you identify video and audio files as being one source?
Thanks!Semantics, I suppose. In any case, you do need to go through Premiere Pro if you want AME to do the job. There are likely other encoders out there which can perform the muxing, though, if you'd rather not go through PP.

I'm using YouTube Video and Audio Downloader. Sometimes the audio and video files combine automatically, sometimes they don't - remaining as separate " DASH - .m4a and DASH - .mp4 ". It used to be that when this would happen I could open up a "ffmpeg" window which would allow me to "manually" convert them to a combined .mp4 file. It was a "drag and drop" type of interface. For some reason I can no longer access that ffmpeg combining function. I tried clicking on ffmpeg.exe. I tried re-downloading ffmpeg several times, both from the Downloader options tab and from the ffmpeg website.
Thanks for your help.Sounds like a question for the developer of the video download add-ons that you have installed.

How do I combine separate audio and video files into one Quicktime movie?
I have DVDs that contain separate audio and video files in folders marked Audio_TS and Video_TS. I would like to know how to combine these files into a single Quicktime movie. Is there inexpensive or shareware software that imports and unites these files reliably? A simple solution is preferred, rather than getting into complex media editing applications.
G4 eMac Mac OS X (10.4.9)Doug - the VOB files (in the VIDEO_TS folder) are MPEG-2 files. MPEG-2 have the video and audio mixed into the one file - there are no audio files to combine.
The rest are directions to a DVD player (e.g. the BUP and IFO's) . The AUDIO_TS folder is used for DVD Audio discs and on video DVDs is always empty.
Many people use Handbrake or iSquint to convert VOB to iPod video though MPEG Streamclip is the best - open the first numbered VOB and it will prompt you to open all of them. ALWAYS fix timecodes when it asks. You can then edit/trim and export to MPEG-4. -
Audio and video out of sync after converting to mp4
I've tried 3 converters (ImToo, Xilisoft, and Videora) and for 2 videos I really want on my ipod, the audio and video are offset. Infact, on Xilisoft, one wouldn't even convert (to anything ------as both are WMV and I thought that might be a problem--but I found I had another WMV that had the audio matching the video fine). For the other vid., I tried on Xilisoft making it an AVI first, but that AVI also had messed up audio/video
This is a really broad question, but what can I do and what programs can I try to get the videos to convert properly??
(I've tried uploading the wmvs to itunes to have itunes "convery for ipod", but they wouldn't even upload to itunes)
30gb video ipod Windows XPI have also had similar problems. Unfortunatly i have yet to discover a program that works perfectly. Just keep searching is really all i have to say. However if you do find it, could u please post it

Audio and video out of sync on converted AVI file
I am trying to convert a DVD to an AVI for playback on a device. When I import the DVD and publish it as an .AVI the output audio and video are out of sync. After about an hour of playback the audio lags the video by a full second. How can I correct this problem?

If you have Premiere Elements 12 on Windows 8 and you want to rip VOBs from the DVD-VIDEO to export subsequently to DV AVI, here are the details....
1. Do you have DVD-VIDEO standard or widescreen? Set the Premiere Elements 12 project preset manually.
File Menu/New/Project. Set the project preset to NTSC or PAL DV Standard or NTSC or PAL DV Widescreen depending on what you have.
Before you exit the new project dialog, make sure that you have a check mark next to Force Selected Project Setting on this Project.
2. In the Premiere Elements workspace, use Add Media/DVD camera or computer drive/Video Importer to get the VOBs (only the ones in the series VTS_01_1.VOB. Set to a folder in the Save In: location. Check mark next to Insert in Timeline. Hit Get Media.
3. If you have an orange line OVER the Timeline content, press the Enter key to get the best possible preview of what you have on that Timeline.
If after all that, the audio is out of sync, then use the Command Prompt method to get the individual VOBs into a single file with all the VOBs seamlessly merged. This worked nicely for a recent user here. See details in my blog post how to for the Command Prompt way.

Please do not hesitate to ask if you need clarification on anything that I have written.
Depending on your results, more information may be requested about the specific properties of what you have on that DVD disc.
Thank you.

Exporting audio and video together for Mpeg2 dvd
Hi, I'm trying to export audio and video together for Mpeg2 dvd.. I changed multiplexing to DVD but is still exporting seperately is there something im missing? thanksa
To add, with Multiplexing set to NONE, check what the Audio format is set to. If "PCM", this is an uncompressed .wav file and will result in export of .m2v video and .wav audio (I think Mac uses .aif) and use "Import as Timeline" in Encore for both clips at once. Encore will automatically transcode the audio to Dolby AC-3, do NOT mess with settings in Encore, defaults are correct. If you have CS6, then in AME audio settings, there is an option for Dolby and you can use that to create the .ac3 audio and then Encore does NOT do any transcoding to audio or video. Note that older versions will also show "Dolby" but that is a free trial of a surround encoder, not the same. You just want the stereo option available in CS6, or use PCM option is fine
Thanks

I need easy audio and video converting and editing software?
I need easy audio and video converting and editing software that wont cost $400.
I highly recommend you try Video Monkey. It's free, though donations are certainly accepted, and does an excellent job of converting .mov to .wmv. Choose Best (2 Pass) for Encoding Speed and depending upon the size of your original file, uncheck 320 pixels wide to create a larger converted image. I set Quality to "Go Nuts".
Another good commercial program is Video Converter Ultimate for Mac. It works as video converter and editor. The version for 2 Pass conversion is approximately $69. , which is considerably less than the $400+ that Adobe Premiere is asking for its editor. I'd still prefer a freebie though, but there's little choice... -

How to combine discrete audio and video files?
I am working on a project which requires me to merge a video file with a PCM audio file from another source.
I just bought Compressor 4.1.1, expecting to be able to do exactly this.
The only "multiple input - single output" option I can see is creating a surround sound group, adding my audio as left and right channels, and then attaching the video.
This does not work. Pressing "add" at the end of the process does not result in a new job.
Help please!
G.QT7 Pro is able to do this. Cost is $30.
In QT7 Pro, open up the audio and video files to be matched.
Select all the audio and then select copy
In the video window, put the playback head where you want the audio to start then select add to movie.
Verify the playback is as desired, then save the movie. Done.
Takes longer to describe the process than to do it.

Of course, life is good when the in point is exactly the same for both audio and video ... -

You can sync photos and videos to your iPad via your computer's iTunes.
To sync photos, connect and select your iPad on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
If the videos are films that you want to go into the Videos app then you first need to add them to your computer's iTunes library via File > Add To Library, and you can then use the Films/Movies tab to select and sync them

What format are the videos in that you want to download, and have you got an app on your iPad that supports that format ? -
Audio and Video out of Sync in Encore 2.0
Here's my issue:
I opened a project in Encore 2.0 that was an Encore 1.5 project. I have one timeline with a 2 hour movie and the AC3 audio file that goes with it. Encore 1.5 played the audio and video in sync from the timeline and burned discs with the audio in sync. The video is an MPEG2 file encoded at a 3.1 constant bit rate.
In Encore 2.0, when I play the timeline, the audio becomes progressively out of sync as it plays. Within the first few minutes it's maybe a frame or 2 off. By the end of the film it is about 18 seconds off (audio is playing ahead of the video).
Is this a result of Encore 2.0 conforming the audio file? If so, how am I (or anyone) supposed to attain sync between video and audio in Encore 2.0?
I have Encore 1.5 and 2.0 both installed on the same machine. As a test, I opened the project in 1.5 and played it, everything was fine. I closed Encore 1.5 and opened the project in Encore 2.0, and the audio is out of sync.
Any comments, ideas or suggestions?
MikeJoe,
I tried creating a project with the original WAV file and it's corresponding video and found that the audio and video were still out of sync. I did a little more testing and discovered that the audio is actually being played correctly, it's the video that is not being played correctly. Here's what I did:
I opened the WAV file version of the audio file in Premiere Pro and noted where a hammer hit in the video occurs (01;40;30;28). I then opened Encore 2.0 and imported the video and AC3 version of the WAV file, placed them in a timeline and the audio's hammer hit is right where it's supposed to be (01;40;30;28), but the video's hammer hit occurs at 01;40;43;18.
Next I went into Encore 1.5 and brought in the AC3 audio and video files and placed them on a timeline. I went to 01;40;30;28 in the timeline and the audio and video were both at the frame they should be at that timecode.
Seeing how the video appears to be playing incorrectly, here's some info on my video files:
I have 4 versions of the same film in varying encode rates with the same start and end timecodes. All four files were encoded on a Sonic DVD Creator authoring station using hardware to encode. The files are encoded at the following rates: 2.9 constant bit rate, 3.1 constant bit rate, 3.4 variable bit rate and 4.0 variable bit rate. They are each NTSC with drop frame timecode. All four files play correctly in Encore 1.5 but incorrectly in Encore 2.0.
This almost seems like a drop frame/non-drop frame issue. Do you have any ideas?

In all your information, I did not see what computer operating system your Premiere Elements 12 is running on? Have you updated 12 to the 12.1 Update, using an opened project's Help Menu/Update? If not, please do so.
Your issue may relate to the details of your "VOB file" and how it was ripped/copied from the DVD-VIDEO and DVD disc to get it into a Premiere Elements project.
a. project preset set for NTSC DV Standard or NTSC DV Widescreen (whichever corresponded to your recording details)...or PAL equivalent.
b. DVD disc in burner tray
c. Add Media/DVD camera or computer drive/Video Importer/.....
It does not happened often, but if audio is out of sync and you are not using the above route, then consider the Command Prompt way described in the
following
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE: DVD-VIDEO/Seamless VOB Ripping
A just in case note, contrary to some, it is not necessary to convert VOB (VTS_01_1.VOB video file and any files in that series) to any other format in Premiere Elements.
Please review and consider and then we can decide what next.
Thank you.
