Display drops out during capture, but capture is ok

While capturing vhs video thru a Canopus ADVC-100 converter into imovie HD, the screen occassionally turns blue (vhs video drops out) with the "camera playing" message on screen. The currently capturing "clip" counter stops momentarily, but resumes normal counter actions when the video reappears on the screen.
I let the capture run uninterupted. When I check the capture, everything is there with no dropouts as I would assume was happening? Any idea?
I'm capturing to an external FW hd (Lacie d2 250) with min 100 gb free space.

It is just that the display software cannot keep up with all the other demands on the processor. Try killing all other applications and emptying caches.
As you observe, it is not really a problem.

Audio drops out during editing - but fine when shared as a final video

On my most current project, the audio track (from the recorded video interview) started dropping out/stuttering. When project is rendered, the audio is fine, but this is annoying while trying to edit. Any thoughts? PE 8 recording in HD.

Airplay dropping out during music playback

Since all the software updates I have developed a very annoying problem between iTunes 10.5 on my Mac Mini (Snow Leopard) and my ATV2.
If I am streaming from iTunes to the ATV2 using airplay I will get audio dropping out during playback. It happens intermittently and randomly. The song keeps playing on iTunes, but ATV2 isn't getting the audio.
If I am pulling music or stored movies from iTunes the other way around (i.e. using the ATV2 menu) there is no problem. Everything works as expected, but of course I get no iTunes DJ and no crossfade between songs.
I did notice that when this problem happens the wireless light on my router stops flashing, so I am assuming that iTunes is not buffering it's airplay, or perhaps there is some kind of a network error. At first I thought it might be too many devices active on the router, but this is never more than 4 items at once, including the ATV2.
Anyone else with a similar problem?

I think you're correct that Airplay doesn't buffer ahead, if it does it's a tiny amount, whereas the whole song can buffer when you pull/play direct on AppleTV.
If you think about it too because you're applying effects in iTunes, crossfades etc these have to be processed not just played and I think itunes does this in real time rather than processing ahead of time in case you say adjust eq settings/volume etc. Also, the Airport/Airplay devices playing 'live' effectively allows multiroom playback with a degree of synchronisation.
The cutting out is to me a sign that data is not getting across the network as robustly now for some reason - I used to have terrible problems with cutting out streaming to an older Airport Express over wi-fi due to interefrence locally from microwaves, cordless landline phones etc. Of course something may have changed given all the software updates but you'd expect the stuttering in iTunes if it was a processing bug. If many others see the same could still be software related,but unless that's the case I'd say it's almost certainly the network. ANyrthing changed? New competing networks from neighbours?

HELP! Audio Drops Out When Trying to Capture Canon XL2 Footage

Please help me out here. I'm a freelance camera operator w/ a Canon XL2 and several times now I've gotten calls from the editors saying they're having problems logging my footage, mainly the audio drops out quite a bit, and I'm not talking bout one second for every 2 or 3 minutes. No. It's like every 10 seconds the audio drops in and out.
What's the deal? Two times the guy was using a Panasonic DVX-100A to capture, another time it was a SONY DSR mini-DV deck. With each incident I had to go over with my XL2 and use it as the capture device, which is a pain.
The program they're using is FCP HD or 5. But I think even when they just play the tape in their Sony or Pany cameras, the audio may still suck.
Help me out here, I can't be the only one with this problem.
Thanks.

Well Robert Swanson, I hope my post wasn't taken offensively, it certainly wasn't meant as such. The only Canon camcorder I owned was the GL1. After switching to Sony's I can honestly say it would take something significant to go back. And, I was merely relating my experiences in trying to capture from other Canon camcorders so that I know where you are coming from. However, I am interested in the HVX being the "noisest" camera on the market. I am seriously considering this camera and would be interested in a review that points this out. I would be using the hard drive recorder instead of P2 cards.

Audio dropping out during playback in timeline

Hey everyone,
I've dug through these forums and unless I just completely overlooked it I have not found a solution to this issue. I've listed my setup below and then have stated the issue I'm experiencing.
27-inch, Mid 2011 iMac
3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
16GB 1333 MHz DDR3
AMD Radeon HD 6970 1024MB
Running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63)
Currently working off of a portable 1TB G-Technology G-DRIVE via FW800.
Working in Premiere Pro CS6 Version 6.0.2
Editing in a sequence with settings:
1920 x 1080 23.976fps (also tried in a 29.97fps timeline with same issue)
Working with footage that is 23.98fps
Working with a combination of ProRes 422 (LT) and native H.264 Quicktime files strait from a 5D Mark 3.
The issue I'm having is during playback the audio will competely drop out. The video will continue playing on just fine but the audio drops completely out. All audio levels drop as well in the audio mixer meters so it truly is losing all communication with my audio layers in the timeline.
I read in other forums to go into Finder and delete out the .caf files, re open Premiere Pro, wait for them to be recreated then carry on. I tried this approach with no luck. Deleting the .caf did not change anything. Audio is still dropping out as I try to play through my timeline. The only way to get the audio back is to pause then press play again. I have 5 total channels of audio with only 2 of those channel active.
Any ideas on what is happening would be greatly appreciated. This is incredibly frustrating have to export out a video just to be able to watch it through.

Having this annoying problem also. Using the Space Bar to play timeline it takes pressing and holding to a count of three or trying press play three time in a row using the space bar to get ungarbled audio, or any audio at all in a normal uncomplicated sequence on the timeline.
Really annoying. Audio used to be so simple and untaxing to a sequence.

ADOBE.....WISH THERE WAS A SOLUTION?

Finder "drops out" during operations, then "drops in" when in other programs.

When trying to copy files to a USB stick or through AirDrop, Finder will drop out for a second (all its windows briefly disappear and processes will stop). The files will be partially copied to the USB stick, but greyed out.
When in other programs, like Safari, Finder windows will suddenly appear, unbidden.
When I run DiskUtility, I will get a very long list of permissions which need to be repaired. When I click "Repair Permissions" it says it repaired them, but then running Repair Permissions again brings up the same list. I have tried the "resetpassword" command in Terminal from the Recovery Volume (Restart+CMD-R) to reset the home folder permissions and ACLs. I have reset the PRAM. I have done a Safe Boot and restarted. I still cannot copy, and Finder is still acting weird. What can I do?
J

Might be Finder preferences are corrupted ...
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
Click Go then move the com.apple.finder.plist file to the Trash.
Launch the Finder to test.
If that didn't help, try relaunching the Finder > Relaunch Finder… from the Mac OS X Finder
It's not necessary to repeatedly repair permissions. Those are messages, nothing more.

Audio drops out of movie but not menu

I have an iMovie that I burned to disc successfully via iDVD. Then, I went back to the movie, made one small text change to a title page, resaved, and tried to burn again. Since then, I have lost the audio every time I try and burn the DVD again.
What's odd is that the movie audio drops out, but the menu audio is still there. Also, when I 'preview' the movie in iDVD, the audio is working just fine. I have five songs in the movie.
Any ideas?
Thanks so much!
(These are iMovie 6 and iDVD 6 btw.)
iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2.1 GHz, 512 MB Memory

After you made the change in iMovie, did iDVD ask you to update the project?
First go to iMovie and "extract audio" This is often a catch-all for some audio issues. Close iMovie.
Then go back to iDVD, open the project - if iDVD asks (and it should) choose "update" Then "delete encoded assets"
Then use "Save as Disk Image". This will do everything but burn your DVD - it will save the encoded project to a .img file. After iDVD is finished encoding, double click on the .img file, and it will mount like a drive. Use the DVD player application (it may launch on its own) to view the image.
If this .img file has good audio, then burn the image with Disk Utility (in your Applications/utiltiies folder - see Disk Utility help for how to burn the .img file)
If this still has audio that drops out, I'd suggest building a new iDVD project with the edited move.

Anyone know why internet drops out for iMac but not ipad or iphone? Thanks

I have been trying to download Mountain Lion and I keep getting 'an error has occured' after about 40 mins or an hour. Then I notice that the iMac is not connected to the Internet. However the iPad and iPhone are (using airport). I am using ethernet adapters which are paired. I have also taken my 24inch iMac out of the study and into the hall and connected it directly to the router using an ethernet cable with still the same result. I have been on the Apple helpline to a high level but they have been unable to sort it out and we've checked most things. I have plenty of capacity on the iMac so it should take the Mountain Lion ios easily. I have checked the broadband speed and it was 6.21 (using the ethernet adaptors). Could there be a conflict somewhere between the iMac and the BT broadband? It does seem to drop out when we listen to our Sonos system too. Please help. Thanks, Fioled

Downloading Moutain Lion requires a high speed broadband connection.
6.21 will never work. That is not broadband.
Make certain your Mac can run Mountain Lion > System requirements for OS X Mountain Lion
Check your download speed here > Speedtest.net by Ookla - The Global Broadband Speed Test
Anything less than 15Mbps will not be fast enough to download Mountain Lion. It's a 4.35GB (approximately) file. That will time out on a slow connection.

The sound drop out during a movie

I am watching a rented movie and suddenly the sound cuts out, I rewind it works it gets to a point and no sound , to say this is frustrating is a understatement , is there a reason or a solution anyone can recommend

I rarely rent because my broadband is quite slow, but I have a lot of home brewed video I watch on the units.
A couple of my AppleTv's started having audio dropouts during playback but no video glitches of note - this was with software 2.2-2.4 mostly and early software 3.0.
I never really knew if it was an AppleTv hardware issue starting eg logic board problem, or due to a software issue, or network issue. It may even be a combination.
This then started happening with music playback or music videos.
My 3 yr old Netgear n router has become somewhat unstable in last 18 months or so hanging every couple of weeks and requiring power off and cooldown or it won't restart - some searching on the net suggested an overheating wireless circuit affecting it's functioning - I now usually disable the wireless functionality and it's miles better though maybe latest iTunes and AppleTv software help.
I use main powerline ethernet adapters by devolo which work very well.
I think either my router was a bit flaky or AppleTV has more general wireless issues in some set ups.
One of my AppleTV's has since failed, so it might be a symptom of impending hardware problem, who knows.
All I would say is that now they for the most part work well on powerline adapters with few audio or other glitches.

Airport extreme drops out on imac, but not on powerbook....

Hi
Here's what i have running.
A 4 year old powerbook which always connects just fine to the internet, with no dropping of the signal.
A new imac with a airport extreme built in. It regularly just drops the internet connection, even though the internet is seen perfectly by the other machine.
Router is a standard netgear router virgin media provide.
Periodically, and some days it will be totally fine, but mostly on the weekends (like now) the signal on the imac just drops out (from perfect 4 bars, to none) and i lose access to the internet on this machine (very annoying when you are trying to talk to someone on skype!). after some time it reappears, only to drop out again.
I have reset the modem to automatically select a wireless channel, but that seems to have done nothing. So following the advise on other chats here, i set the channel to 10. However the problem remains. I thought, well, maybe its the wireless phone, or the microwave, but these do not seem to affect the internet connection to the powerbook g4. The software updater for the "airport utility" claims it is up to date.
And now i am totally lost as to what to do! Any suggestions? Thanks

I have this very same issue. Reproducable on 2 laptops (ibook and powerbook), both 10.4.3, to 2 separate ftp servers.
Transmit fails as well.
Fetch, however, seems to work just fine. Does Fetch not use the underlying ftp command line app?
Transferring small files (under 1k) seems to work though.
The message I get is as follows:
421 Service not available, remote server timed out. Connection closed
Timesout for 10-20 seconds, then I get the message. Setting the transfer mode to "binary" manually seems to correct the issue. But this won't work for what I'm doing (Dreamweaver, which must use the command line ftp?).
Attempting to ftp the same files from my local Solaris and Linux servers seems to work just fine.
sftp works.
Apple? Is ftp broken?

Tape plays during capture but "capture duration" doesn't move

So essentially it's not capturing when I hit the record button. All it does is play the tape Anyone ever run into this problem? I've captured successfully with this device (Canon HDV camera) and same settings before so I'm baffled.

'Problem Ticket' huh? That's good, Patrick. When I worked for the telephome company in Washington, D. C., three or four lifetimes ago, we called them Trouble Tickets.
I might incorporate that phrase into this current thread, when I revise it in v2:

Video layer under lower third dropping out during share from Final Cut X

I am having a problem when I "Share" an H264 video file or when I upload directly to Youtube. The Video that is under my lower thirds sometimes does not get output. The video is there and plays fine when I hit the spacebar but when I "share" the project in some of the places where I have a lower 3rd the video is missing with on the the lower third being visible over black. Any audio in the video is also missing. Re-rendering often fixes the problem but it a real pain in an half hour show when I am crunched for time.
Is anyone else having a problem like this and what is the solution?

This really seems to be a problem with some corrupt render files.
Delete render files, turn off background render and do not rerender before export.
Also, export to your hard drive first, then use the browser to upload. That way you have a chance to make sure it is all ok, rather than wait for the upload and conversion on youtube and then realize it came up wrong.

IMac display goes out during Install

Hi All;
I have an iMac G5. While installing Leopard, the screen goes dark, and is unresponsive to keystrokes to bring it back. The installation is still taking place, as I can hear the DVD being accessed, I ust cannot see the install screen. What is happening here?
Carcass

How long has this install taken? Interrupting an install can cause it to fail, and it can also corrupt your directories. If you feel that the install has failed, eject the DVD, reset your SMU and your PRAM, repair permissions and try again.

I have copied my iTunes library onto a new computer, but when I play back the songs there seems to be random "miss" or "drop out". No probs with old computer, just the new one. I'm onto my third new computer - same problem. Any suggestions please?

I have copied my iTunes library onto a new computer, but when I play back the songs using the new computer, there seems to be random "miss" or "drop out" during play back, similar to a small scratch on a vinyl record. Although when I play the same song over again, the "miss" occurs in a different location during the song. No probs with old computer, just the new one. I'm onto my third new computer - same problem. Any suggestions please?

You don't say which version of iTunes you are using, but the symptoms you describe have been encountered by some users with the 64-bit version of iTunes 12.1.
There is an alternative version for 64-bit editions of Windows here:
iTunes 12.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards)
that seems to address the most of the playback issues that some users have been reporting with the full 64-bit version of 12.1.0.77 - including problems with Bluetooth speakers where either sound is degraded or completely absent. The alternative installer here is the same architecture as most previous "64-bit" versions of iTunes, i.e., a 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer. The "for older video cards" label appears to be something of a misnomer as some people have reported that this corrects problems found on current / high-spec systems.
Some users have reported that after installing this alternative version it is necessary to adjust the "Play audio using" selection (normally to "Direct Sound" rather than "Windows Audio Session", though this may vary based on your audio hardware/drivers) in Edit > Preferences > Playback to restore glitch-free audio (one part of the reported symptoms is that the "Direct Sound" choice isn't available, usually in Windows 8). It may also be necessary to ensure that your Bluetooth speakers are active and selected as the default audio device before you run iTunes.
If this doesn't address the issue, you may want to think about reverting to iTunes 12.0 - see Turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for steps needed to completely remove all installed iTunes components, and for links to the 12.0 installers.
