DVD audio, no video

My dvd player plays the audio nbut no video...so it is stuck on the menu screen---although the movie window is just black.

What happens if you try VLC?

Capturing Audio and Video of DVD

I need to convert sections of a DVD (audio and video) that I narrated on to mp3/mp4 so I can put it up on my website.
Is there a way to do that with Quicktime? Some plugin?
Thanks
G4 Powerbook Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Is there a way to do that with Quicktime? Some plugin?Not normally. While there is an MPEG-2 QT component for the video data, it ignores the audio. I would normally use MPEG Streamclip (free) to demux the audio data to AIFF. This is a very quick operation. Since the AIFF file is fully compatible, it can then be converted to other audio formats by QT Pro and/or iTunes.

InstantOn DVD - Audio out of Synch with Video

Hi
I have a MegaPC 865 Pro. I am having problems with the InstantOn DVD Player. The Audio is out of synch with the video. (the Audio is slower than the Video). It happens on both analog and digital spdif out modes.
CPU: Celeron 2.66
RAM: 1G
Optical Drive: LG GSA-4081B
HDD: 40G Seagate
Audio and Video are the inbuilt ones that came with the MegaPC 865.
In Windows XP Media centre, it works fine (the audio/video synch works fine, the 5.1/7.1 audio mix mode has problems, but thats a different topic!!)
Can anyone offer any suggestions?? 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

IMovie DVD audio no syncronized with video

Just prior to the holidays, I spent many hours creating my first iMovie project; a video of my nieces and nephews with old video dating from the period 1987-1999. I imported old VHS and Hi8 footage to my Sony DCR TRV30 digital camcorder, then edited the footage using iMovie 4.0.1. I added music, transitions, titles etc. and ended up with about a 40 minute video which contained 2.7 GB worth of data. I burned the movie to a DVD-R using iDVD. However, when I played the disc on my DVD player, the audio was about a second behind the video. I assume the problem occurred during the burn process, because when I reviewed the project in iMovie, the audio and video were "synced." Any suggestions or thoughts as to wha might have happened? Thanks in advance...

The solution:
Always use 16-bit/48kHz audio.

Create a DVD using Premiere Pro and Encore - delay between audio and video (in ms)?

I created a DVD and need to be sure that audio and video are in perfect sync (smaller than 1 millisecond).
Is this even possible with Premiere Pro / with DVDs in general?
My sequence settings in Premiere are:
DV PAL, 25 fps, 720x576 (16:9), D1/DV PAL Widescreen, lower field first, Audio: 48000 Hz
My DVD settings in Encore are:
MPEG-2 (MainConcept MPEG-Video), 720x576, 25 fps, lower field first, Widescreen 16:9 (1,458), Bitrate VBR, 2-Pass, Min 1,5 MBit/s Target 4 MBit/s, Max 9 MBit/s, GOP: M-Frames 3, N-Frames 12, Audio: Dolby Digital, 192 kbit/s

I created a DVD and need to be sure that audio and video are in perfect sync (smaller than 1 millisecond).
Is this even possible with Premiere Pro / with DVDs in general?
Frame accurate is the best you can achieve and that means 33 milliseconds at best.

DVD audio/video is sticking/crackling on pc (all programs) and dvd palyers

I have burned a small project including a picture slide show some music and a voice over that I created in FCP, rendered, compressed (creating aiff and mpeg2 files) then used dvd studio pro to create a dvd. The audio and video stick, click, and crackle when on a pc and in certain dvd players. The WMP is updated and the players are not very old. WMP does not recognize the play button on the dvd menu either. I've tried setting DVD studio pro preferences to double pass, different dvds, rendering it before compressing it with compressor which was set to best quality 90 min. It plays ok on macbook pro. Please help

I'm also having the same issue. Here's my specs. Let me know if you're experiencing similar tech specs so we can sort this thing out!
Problem: Suddenly started getting skipping/crackling/clicking
Noteworthy:
1. This started happening suddenly. The only changes I've made are:
1a. Ran out of "Apple" 4x disks and tried Verbatim 4x and Verbatim 16x (from the Apple store) disks.
1b. Recently updated OS from 10.4.3 to 10.4.9
2. Disks play fine in my Mac using DVD Player. Problem is only on my consumer player (Panasonic, aprox. 3 yrs old)
Testing...
1. I've tried various compression levels, 1 and 2 pass VBR and constant bit rate. (Using Compressor and/or DVDSP)
2. I've tried using iDVD
3. I have not yet tried burning from a disk image and forcing a reduced burn rate.
4. Tried using a small piece of software called Visual Hub
Specs:
OS 10.4.9
DVDSP 3.0.2
Compressor 1.2.1
Length: I'm burning only a 2 min demo reel for my business (http://www.antifreezedesign.com) It's not a long program.
Frustrations:
I can't upgrade DVDSP. Why can't we buy DVDSP standalone?! Does Apple think we're all video editors?
Questions:
1. As I test this out, can anyone help me understand the relationship between Compressor, DVDSP, and iDVD? Is testing different schemes in Compressor the same as testing them differently in iDVD or are the all accessing the same "encoding" software behind the scenes?
2. Is there any connection/possible conflict to Quicktime that I should be aware of, or is this an unrelated piece of software?
3. Is it advisable to re-install any of the software? I'm having trouble finding the 1.2.1 update to Compressor 1.2 that I have on disk.

DVD drives read the bottom of the disk, not the top. Smooth out the paper & try again.

Convert DVD and other video files for playback on iPhone, iPod, PSP, etc.

So, how are your holidays going? Or, if you're reading this on the weekend, how'd they go? Watching various sorts of DVD movies and videos is a better idea for a pastime during your free time. To make your holiday be more colorful with movies, I prefer to recommend an application to help you guys deal with different kinds of video resources, no matter the DVD files or footages shot by camcorders, or videos in formats of FLV, AVI, MKV, etc., in a word, the converted videos will be supported by whatever portable devices you have, including PSP, iPod Classic, iPod Touch, iPod Nano, iPhone (3G), iPhone, Zune, Zune 2, Blackberry, Nokia, Creative Zen, Sony Walkman, iRiver PMP, Archos, PS3, Apple TV, Xbox, iPAQ, Pocket PC, Mobile Phone, etc. The software is Pavtube Video DVD Converter Ultimate, which combines DVD ripper and Video Converter together, and enables you to edit and convert any DVD, video, audio and image files to other popular formats including MP4, 3GP, FLV, MPEG-4, AVI, MPG, MOV, 3G2, VOB, FLAC, MKA, OGG, WAV, AC3, M4A with super fast conversion speed and excellent image and sound quality.
The detailed user guide will be shown in the following part:
Step 1: Add video and DVD file
You are allowed to add videos to this program via clicking "Add Video", and add DVD files to it via clicking "Load DVD". DVD files can be loaded in three ways: "Load DVD ROM", "Load DVD Folder", and "Load ISO/IFO".
Step 2: Select output format and set destination folder
Videos and DVD files can be added to this program at the same time, after that, you can click the drop-down list of "Format" to select an output format for your portable devices. The format profile provides you with formats for iPod, iPhone, PSP, PS3, BlackBerry, etc. Meanwhile, you can click the folder icon at the end of "Output" to decide where to save the output files. Moreover, if you want to combine multiple files to be a single file, you can tick "Merge into one file".
Step 3: Set advanced settings
If you have the needs of adjusting video and audio parameters to make good control of the output file quality and size, you can click "Settings" button to do it, and all the options like codec, aspect ratio, bit rate, frame rate, audio channel, etc. are changeable on the following window.
Step 4: Start conversion
As soon as the above steps are finished, you can click "Convert" button to start conversion, the following ripping window will show you clearly about all the conversion info. After finished, you are able to find out the output files via clicking "Open" button.

We're not supposed to talk about DVD conversion according to the terms of service ...
So I'll assume these VOB files are from your HOME MOVIE DVDs you burned yourself and suggest the Videora iPod Classic Video Converter.
http://www.videora.com/
It's a really nice program that converts not only your HOME MOVIE DVD VOB files, but AVI, MPEG, and others. You can set the CPU usage from high to low with five settings, it has a queue which you can add multiple files to, and it will minimize to the taskbar for compact convenience. There are other Windows programs that do much the same, but I prefer Videora. Oh ... and it's freeware!!

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?
Mike

Joe,
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?
Mike

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.

Audio and Video out of Sync after Pro Res export

I´m getting an audio/video sync issue when I´m exporting to Pro Res.
I started off in a HDV1080i50 sequence. Audio sampling rate is 48khz. (16 bit depth)
The sequence is less than 20 minutes long. It plays correctly on the timeline.
When I export the sequence for DVD and view it on a set top it plays absolutely fine.
When I export the video to ProRes (422 HQ - I used Export using Quicktime Conversion) and the audio to AIFF, they quickly go out of sync. This was brought to my attention first by the guys who were making the DigiBeta master, and when I view the exported material in a Pro Res sequence I can see it for myself.
The audio and video clips are of the exact same duration.
Possible issues...
Some of the narration was recorded at 44.1 khz. I didn´t resample it (I´m still a learning novice..).. but if that is the issue should it not have affected the DVD as well? All the other audio in the project is 48khz.
Most of the material is HDV1080i50..but one clip used was originally an NTSC clip and therefore a different frame rate. However I converted it to a 25fps clip and this is reflected in the vid rate column in the browser where it says 25fps.
Final point, the exported AIFF files..when I import them back into the HDV1080i50 sequence and play back, it is perfectly in sync.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

First, yes resample the narration to 48k 16 bit. You will probably be able to reconnect to the resampled files. Usually works for me. That's a simple fix and will probably solve the problem. If it doesn't, you can try to change the codec (compressor) in the sequence settings to prores 422HQ, fully render and see if that solves the problem.
Wait, just reread your original post. Export from fcp using file: export: quicktime movie NOT quicktime conversion with current settings. If that works without synch issues, use compressor to convert to prores.

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?

Walter0325
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.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/09/pe-dvd-videoseamless-vob-ripping.html
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.

Audio and video not in sync

I used DVD Decrypter and Videora converter to get my DVDs onto my iPod, they work great except from the start of the movie but when I try to fastforward to any point in the movie, the audio and video go out of sync by about 20 seconds. Does anyone know how to remedy this problem? (I also have Quicktime but it doesn't convert my videos at all)

Tried that. No good.
I have to turn the tv on and off.
This can be a couple of times a night.
Very annoying.

DVD audio, no video
