Delete sound in video, keep sound from audio

I have a project with over 400 clips and wish to delete or minimize the audio from the video. I have created a soundtrack of songs that are in the audio. I am hoping to avoid lowering the audio in the video clips. I have highlited all of the clips and then lowered the volume level below the movie pane. When I play this burned copy there is no sound whatsoever, even though the sound in the audio clips has not been manipulated. The checkmark box for video and audio are on.

Forgive me if I have not understood you correctly.
Do you want the audio that is embedded in the video footage to play during the movie? Or, do you just want the audio you added to the movie play?
If you don't want to hear the audio in the video, uncheck the box at the end of the timeline.
Be certain not to highlight the audio portion of the timeline when you are lowering the volume.

There is no sound on video clips downloaded from my camera phone

There is no sound on video clips downloaded from my cell phone camera. I have sound on all other applications. The clips have sound on my husband's computer which has windows vista.

With help from Costco Concierge, the problem was solved by downloading a sound card from Itunes.

Why can't I import sound with video into iMovie from digital camera?

This is disturbing. I have a digital video camera that took great video + sound. I import into iMovie (using my DV cable that came with the camera) and get video but no sound.
Now, in the past the sound came in, but no longer. Any and all advise is requested. I have to make number videos of lectures starting Wednesday evening and have to be able to provide video with audio.
Thanks.

Try importing video shot with the camera's internal
microphone. If that doesn't work either, the mic is
not the problem.
I have no problem importing sound with video when using the internal video camera mic. No problem (other than sound quality issues with the speaker being 40 feet away from the camera's internal mic!
But I can play back the video made with the external mic in the camera and the sound is stunningly clear, crisp and loud. It's just a matter of getting it out of the camera into my Mac. I don't think it's the microphone; it must be the computer.
I just find it sad to believe that Apple's software is so limited--even in Final Cut Express HD.

No sound on video I transferred from my Eris?

I have a Droid Eris, and when I go to transfer the videos I have shot on the phone to my PC (Windows 7), the videos play on the PC, but have no sound??!?
Does anyone have any ideas on this??

Here is an article on Video but no Audio on Playback by Jake Ludington. This gives a clear and cut explanation to your issue and what to do to resolve it: http://www.jakeludington.com/ask_jake/20051025_video_but_no_audio_on_playback.html

Iphone 4 has sound recording video, no sound during calls

Hi,
I'm not sure whether this is a hardware glitch or software one.I hope someone can help me with this.
The microphone seem to be picking up signals fine when recording video, however not other times.
And If a earpiece is plugged in the it can pick up sound normally.
I've tried the following:
- restore iphone
- upgrade to lasted ios
- clean audio jack port
and replacing dock connector
none of these solved the problem...
any suggestion welcome

Unfortunately the previous IOS wont be restored just your data. We´ll have to wait for the new IOS 6.1.1 which is currently being tested. Here I really verified the problem has been caused after the upgrade and It´s really a software issue because if when I answer the call I scream the first HELLOOO then the mic sensibility will be changed for the rest of the talk, so the mic or hardware is ok.
Many 4S owners are complaining not just about this specific problem but others related to call drops. We´ve got to wait

Flash Player streaming video keeps freezing while audio continues

Hi,
I have been having a problem with flash player for a couple of months now. When watching streaming video's the video will freeze for a second every 5-10 seconds constantly, but the audio continues uninterrupted. I have tried everything, enabling/disabling hardware acceleration; reinstalling flash player 11; trying flash player 10; updating the graphics drivers. I have also tried it on 5 different browsers: IE, Firefox, Chrome, Seamonkey (mozilla browser), and Opera. The same problem occurs on all of them. Yesterday I thought I had cracked it when I realised I had several versions of java installed and once I deleted all the old versions flash player worked fine. However, today the problem has started all over again, and for some reason flash player had deleted itself when I turned the computer on this evening.
I have checked my internet connection speed online and am running an average speed of 5Mbps. I have 2.5 GB's of RAM, and a 2.2 GHz AMD Athlon 64 3500+ processor. I am using Windows XP. I have never had any problems with flash player on this pc (which I've had for 6 years), and as far as I can tell this problem started occurring a couple of weeks before flash player 11 was released.
I'd be very grateful for any help anyone can give resolving this problem.
Regards,
Chris Perkins

I think the issue may be related to Silverlight which I think was released in September when we both started getting this problem. DIsabling it does not work, so I'm still not sure how or if it really is causing this problem.
If the player is Silverlight, you'd be able to see that by right clicking the video.
Can you go to Youtube, play any video and then right click it and choose "Take Speed Test". That will take you to a graph where you can see what your download speed is in relation to your ISP, your location and other data. If the black bar is way down compared with others, then I would suspect that something, or somebody else is using your bandwidth. Do you have wireless? If so, change the security code. It may be being used as a wireless hotspot by your neighbours.
You can also play the test video which will show data usage in real time.

Issue with deleting 0 byte video mp4 file from iphone 5S

The issue happens when I tried to sync my iPhone 5s photo to iPhone on my Mac. The two 0 byte video file just cannot be sync and iphoto will prompt the error. "Error downloading image. Photo cannot import your photos because there was a problem downloading an image."
I try to use "Image Capture" on the mac to delete it as suggested by many users, but it did not allow me to select the 2 files at all. Could any guru kindly render their kind assistance to this problem. Thanks.

in case you ended up on this thread via web search (as I did today),
I'll post how I solved it when it happened to me.
the issue was caused by importing 3 months of camera roll using Image Capture (I do not use iPhoto anymore).
after importing all the items, I selected them all in the Image Capture window and clicked on "delete".
a few ghost files (video only) were left behind, all of them 0 Bytes.
tried disconnecting/restarting the device but the issue persisted.
no way to delete the video references from the mac.
had to go in camera roll and manually delete them all.
using "select' on the top right you can tap them and delete after they are all checked.
hope this helps someone

Equium-A100-147 - broken sound and video

Hi everyone,
I have the Equium A100-147, Its been working fine for last couple of year.
But in the last few weeks has get problem in sound and video (broken sound and video).
The sound is breaking and sometimes uable to listen + video breaking and so much delay due to its get so slow with so much sound distorsion etc..
This remains after new installation (format HDD) of Wind XP unable to fix even installed new drivers.
The Device Manager shows all drivers including audio and video working ok, d'nt know what's problem please help me.
Thanks.

Hi
Something like that can happen during high HDD activity this means that the reading/writing process could affect the sound/video playback
But usually this should not take long time
At the other hand this can happen because of higher temperature
High temperature can affect the CPU and GPU performance
I think you have used this notebook for couple of month without any troubles in my opinion you should check if cooling modules and fans are clogged and could remove the dust and debris from cooling modules use compressed air spray this helps p get rid of dust
Maybe then the notebook will run much better

No sound or video in Finder Preview window anymore

Hello everybody,
My hard drive recently crashed and I had to get a replacement drive, reinstall OSX, and migrate my backup clone back to the hard drive with SuperDuper. Everything is running fine, except for some reason I can't hear any sound, or see any video when previewing movies or mp3s in preview. The time marker moves to the right, but there is no sound or video. Sound works in itunes and in Quick time, but not in the preview?Volume is up all the way. I tried some sort of suggested adjustment in the Audio Midi utilities screen to no avail. Any suggestions

Ok, i figured out what the problem was. For some reason I had to install Flip4Mac to make the previews work again. Hope this helps everyone else.

Deleting the uncompressed video file once m2v and aif have been created

When I create a dvd then close the project.
I then later delete the uncompressed video file captured from tape.
I reopen DVD studio pro and it tells me that it cannot find original file.
I tell it to used m2v encoded file as new video file and aif encoded file as new audio file.
But i am then given an error message and these two files disapear.
Can anyone help me out. Surely i should not have to keep the original captured video file for every dvd I want to make. The idea surely is that once DVD studio pro has made m2v and aif files then the project should be able to use those to create any further DVD of that project.

I've still never seen any problems with a single video track and uncompressed audio.
I won't argue that it never happens to anybody, of course, but I've made DVDs for a lot of people, and usually the only problems I hear tend to be a problem with their brand of player not being able to recognize the media. Those are relatively rare and almost always has to do with cheaper brands of DVD players. If they can get it to start at all, I haven't heard of any trouble with playing the whole thing.
I would like to know if that's the problem I had with trying multiple video tracks, though. DVDSP would refuse to even finish the build. It would start to mux, then partway through, say the bitrate was too high and abort. It was a long time ago, but I would've been using uncompressed audio and probably fairly high bitrate video (3.2Mbps, possibly even 3.5). Seemed stupid to me; I would've thought the muxing would be a smart enough design so that only the video and audio tracks in use at any given time (one video, one audio, one subtitle) would count toward your maximum allowed bitrate.
But that brings up another point you guys might try. I heard people mention 3.5Mbps. I use 3.2, and I don't see any noticeable difference in the quality of the video. But switching from uncompressed audio to ac3 definitely is a noticeable (downward) difference, at least using the stock Dolby 2.0 encoding preset included in DVDSP4 / Compressor 2 and a standard stereo (2-channel) source. I did several different tests where I encoded the audio both ways and burned a test DVD with multiple audio tracks, switching between them to compare. Even normal conversations on the ac3 (Dolby 2.0) track sounded quieter and less dynamic, and there was (naturally) an even more noticeable difference in any kind of music.
So you might give that combination (3.2Mbps video with uncompressed audio) a try in the future, especially if you're picky about the audio. If that fixes the problem, I think it's a reasonable sacrifice since the audio difference is more severe. Basically, if you're doing a professional enough job that the difference in video between 3.5Mbps and 3.2Mbps is important, then you should already be doing a professional 5.1 audio encoding from individual channels anyway.
BTW, I have my 3.2Mbps labeled "120min", since that's about what I can fit on a DVD with uncompressed audio. My other often-used settings are 2.8Mpbs for 135min (three hour-long TV episodes with commercials cut out), and 2.0Mpbs for 170min. (And I can't remember for sure, but the 170min may even be a slight overestimate, so be careful of cutting it too close if you use those settings.) I usually don't even notice a video quality difference with 2.8Mpbs, though I have only used that with a less-than-pristine source anyway, so the lower bitrate isn't the bottleneck for quality in that case.

How do I route audio from a YouTube video to AU Lab using SoundFlower so that I can capture the YouTube video's sound stream?

How do I route audio from a YouTube video to AU Lab using SoundFlower so that I can capture the YouTube video's sound stream?

Attach camera via USB or put card in card reader.
Go to FCP, and go to the Log and TRANSFER window.
If FCP recognizes the card, you will see your clips listed on the left.
You can view them, set Ins and Outs, and import just what you want.
Once you choose a section of video and import it, FCP converts (transcodes) from its original camera format to Apple ProRes422 - a more edit friendly video file.

[Python pygame] Graphic equalizer - keeping sound and video in sync

Hi!
I'm writing a graphic equalizer in python and I want to use pygame for the video and audio output.
The video display of the moving bars works great, now that I have a correct way to read samples and decode them.
The problem now is: they're way out of sync with the audio playing in the background!
At the moment my code, that draws the bars basically looks like this:
# loop as long as we can get slice of the audio file for the fft
for n_frame in range(0, len(framebuffer), fftframesz):
clock.tick_busy_loop(t_loop)
# t_loop was defined as fftframesz over total_frame_count
# which means in words: t_loop is the amount of FFTs per second - or the cycles of THIS loop
# grab the frames and perform the fft here
...numpy.fft.fft...
# set the new bar heights and draw them
for bar in bars:
bar.update()
# if playback has not started yet, make it so
if not pygame.mixer.get_busy():
musicfile.play()
The way I'm thinking, this should be enough to keep sound and video in sync. Because we know the time that one cycle should take at most,
we can set the clock to tick_busy_loop this time. This way we make sure that the video is not faster than the sound.
But to me it seems that is is the other way round, i.e. that the video is slower than the sound. I already did some timing, but to no avail.
Is there perhaps a more easy, more elegant way to make sure that image and audio are in sync?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks for your ideas. I assume you mean I should go with a $1200.00 final cut pro software. NOT.
Sure the video will be on myspace and youtube but wether they are noticed or not is not as important as self satisfaction. I can easily split scenes into equal time zones as I said. Then drag them into clips and back all using the same camcorder. Multiple cameras and angles would be nice but this can be done on a low budget and still look good. I guess my original questions were not answered. Is there a way to determine the length of a transition and shorten the clip by that amount. Or the length of a still shot and do the same. Or perhaps they have been answered and the answer is NO WAY, and I am just not hearing it.
I suppose reimporting a video would be great if I could use two timelines like in audio and then blank out what I don't want in the first. But I just don't think this is possible, or is it. I've been reading iMovie HD6 The Manual that should have been in the box. It's a help but doesn't take you from the beginning of a project to the final project. Exporting to imovie or idvd is not an issue. BTW I got the clips in sync as I said by leaving blank spots and placing effects over them. I could insert the proper length video in those spots but that can look silly without transitions. But then again so can transitions. This stuff is very fun and interesting and a great learning experience. If I stop now as you suggest then I am not pushing myself to the limit. But thanks for your reply.

Audio on video files sounds fine but actual video won't play

Just bought a new laptop last week w/ windows vista on it, downloaded itunes and purchased a legitimate (i.e. direct from NBC) tv show - the audio sounds fine, but the video locks up on the first frame when I go to play it. I can fast forward to any spot in the show, but the video keeps freezing wherever I choose to play it. have tried numerous solutions found on the website, gone to my local apple store and emailed apple support and nothing has solved the problem yet....I even upgraded the computer's memory a few days ago thinking that might be the issue and it wasn't. anybody have any advice?
thank you!!!

Doublechecking a few things before proceeding.
In your troubleshooting efforts so far, have you worked through the suggestions from the following document?

Do you have a 32-bit or 64-bit version of Vista on your Compaq?

Sound quits and the video keeps going

When playing movies or TV episodes on the Apple TV 2 the sound will stop randomly, but the video keeps going. I will have to stop the video by going out to the menu and then resume the video to get the sound back.
Apple TV: v4.4.3
iTunes: v10.5.1

I found that this is only an issue with files that have bee purchased from iTunes. It is easily reproducable, as it happens in the same spots each time. You can also just rewind the video a little bit and the sound will start again.

I recorded audio with Quicktime player and the sound files won't disappear from the desktop no matter how I try to put them in the trash...

I recorded audio with Quicktime player and the sound files won't disappear from the desktop no matter how I try to put them in the trash...tried xing out the red x, putting them in the trash...right clicking to make them disappear...nothing works...

Just got rid of them... I closed Quicktime and was asked to delete. So I deleted them. Problem solved.
