Converting Music Videos - With Audio

How come when i convert a music video into a mpeg-4 format, it does not have audio along with video?

I guess because it's the file format that you have to change. I went on my Limewire and downloaded mp4 video files. You don't need to convert those because they are already in the correct format. Those play with both video and audio on the iPod with no problem.

Converting a Music Video to Audio only (music)

I have a music video (mpeg4 format I believe) and I would like to convert it to audio. It is a clip (video) of a song from YouTube and I would like to just listen to it on my iPod. I was also wanting to add lyrics to it but seen that I could not add lyrics when I go to "Get Info" to a music video.

Hi njrichardson,
You can only add lyrics to songs, not music videos. I don't think iTunes can convert music videos into songs, so you'll have to use an external software or website to do that.

Any suggestions for editing Music Videos with Multiclip?

Hi there. I have been reading about the new multiclip feature in FCPHD5. Sounds as if it would be perfect for editing a performance music video with multiple run throughs. In fact it almost seems too good to be true. I was writing to ask if anyone has tried this and what problems they encoutnrered or what workflow they could recommend. I haven't used multiclip before (or editied many music videos either) and would appreciate any suggestions.
This is my idea so far.
capture offlineRT the whole tape, make subclips with an angle setting of each take. Then edit the multiclip in a timeline which includes the song as an audio track. I thought I would synch with inpoints manually set to the beginning of the songs first riff in playback (as there was no clapper on set that day, curse them)
I have questions about onlining as well and how to make it a less tormenting nerve racking experience. Maybe its just me but the thought of trashing all the media, duplicating projects and recapturing makes me break out in a cold sweat. But I'll deal with that later.
Thanks for your thoughts, observations, suggestions.
Have a merry Christmas
Sincerely
Peter Stenhouse

The plan was to sync up the mixed PT audio to the video track. However the club screwed up the recording and I was left with using the audio from one of the tripod mounted cameras that I placed a stereo mike on.< </div>
General advice for live performances:
1. Depending on a computer to make the only recording is a silly idea. Use tape or a minidisk. Take a line feed off the main board and record it on at least one of the cameras.
2. There is nothing that will substitute for missing timecode better than a good countdown. Insist the band develop a creative visual and aural timing cue that all cameras and mics can see.
3. The most important part of shooting a performance or a lipsync gig for mulitcamera assembly is preproduction. The bugs, glitches and gotchas are all well known and thoroughly documented on thousands of band blogs.
4. There is no excuse to go into a location shoot unprepared and carrying a solid backup plan for all of the stuff that will go wrong.
5. A full, all-camera, all-personnel rehearsal is a good idea.
6. The band's lighting guy knows nothing about video. Give him some help or give him the day off.

Select/highlight the ones that you want to change in your iTunes library, do Get-Info (control-I) and change their Media Kind on their Options tab to 'Music Video' - and then similarly for the podcasts.

How can I export a video with audio from premiere cs 5.5 to a DVD

You don't... at least not directly... you export MPEG2-DVD and then use the TWO files (audio and video) in Encore

Aligning Video with Audio

I am attempting to align video with audio of a clip from another camera. Is there an incremental way of aligning. At the moment when I move the video clip on the timeline it is not fine enough to to align.

select the clip in the timeline then nudge it left and right using the trim keys, the comma and period keys, to nudge left and right by one frame at a time (the square brackets also do the same). if you hold down the shift key at the same time you'll get a multi-frame nudge ... the number of frames depends on your "multi-frame trim size" setting in your Final Cut Pro > User Preferences --> Editing tab
of course, you can only nudge the clip if there is no other clip in the way, otherwise you will just get a "clip collision" ... if that is the case then you'll need to "slip" or "slide" the clip in place. exactly the same procedure/keystrokes as before, but you just need to select the slip or slide tool before you start pressing those trim keys.
cheers

Program to remove sound from video and join video with audio file?

With which program can I remove the sound of a video and join/sync the video file with another audio file?
Thank you

Can I suggest using something that will allow audio capture from the external mic. to start with. Then you will have a video with audio in sync, in a format that you can re encode into whatever format you wish.
But, if you must do that. Dump the video from the handycam file, then put the mics audio file with it. ffmpeg -i video ffmpeg -i audio into whatever container and codecs that you want. You may have to adjust audio-video sync
ffmpeg -i audio -itsoffset 0.1 -i video
Search this forum and the web. There are hundreds of ffmpeg examples. And the ffmpeg man
https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.html
ffmpeg will do just about anything, but is a little daunting. Ask specific questions and you'll get specific answers. Or find a front end for it. I never use them.

Import video with audio question

When I start a new project and import a video with audio, then drag to the timeline , it puts the latter on audio 4 track instead of track 1. Why is it skipping 3 tracks?

. Thanks Bill. It was a mono track and the 3 above were stereo. I deleted the 3 empty tracks and now it is below the video directly. What I am also wondering about is why the video track can be widened vertically,by dragging the bottom border and the previous audio 1 track could be also, but this one can not. Is it not possible to see the waveform as I can when I imported an audio file in a different project? That one was expandable veritically.There was no video in that one.

Need help with music videos and audio cd's

ok, ive already asked, and for some reason, nobody responded. and i posted the question TWO days ago. so again, there is a song that i want to buy, but there is a music video of it that i could buy and the music video has an extra verse on it that i really like but itunes doesnt sell the video version as a normal mp3. and i want to know, before i waste my money, if i buy the music video and put it on an audio cd, will the cd player play the audio of the music video? somebody please help. thank you very much to whoever helps me with this.

if i buy the music video and put it on an audio cd, will the cd player play the audio of the music video?
No.
If the music video is not copy-protected (if it doesn't have the "+" symbol next to the price, it's copy protected), then you may be able to use QuickTime Pro or another editor to extract and convert the audio track from the video. There also may be Windows programs that could capture the audio output of iTunes; there are such programs for Macs and I'd guess that similar programs exist in Windows.
I'd suggest, though, that you first check with the other download stores such as Amazon and see if they have the track available as an audio-only download.

How to replace audio on a music video with final cut pro x

How do I replace low quality audio on a music video to a higher better quality audio with final cut pro x?
I have the new audio on cd which I can rip and replace the original audio.
Some audio and music videos are not of same length, In cases like this how do I sync video to the newly replaced audio?
Is there any tutorial, link or where to look for this in the manual?
Any help will be very much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Providing you don't need the video synced or cut to a beat, all you need to do is place your music in the primary storyline
Connect your video above.
While your video is connected, hit CMD+R on your keyboard and stretch the video to the length of the music
If you were to cut the video to a beat, simply add markers on your music track, then connect and trim clips to your markers.

Ipod Movie/Video with Audio problems

I have some music videos, it would only sync as imovie...but even so their shouldnt be a problem with the audio function of the ipod should their? i just received the ipod for christmas but the videos i have uploaded have no sound....reguler songs work fine...could someone help me with the problem so i could enjoy the music of my videos?
Video Ipod Windows XP Pro 73GB left on Ipod

Sounds like the video files might not be in the correct format for use with the iPod. I would recommend that you download an iPod Video Converter and run the files through it, and then try syncing the newly created files on to the iPod.
I've used Videora, and have had some good results with it. The only problem that I've really run into is that sometimes the audio is a few seconds out of sync with the video. It's not soo bad that watching the video files is unbearable, but that's all up to you.
You can try a Google search for iPod Video Converter, or you can check on VersionTracker.com
Hope this is helpful.
