Edit video TO audio track

Er, how are you supposed to edit the video to an audio track as in making a music video where the video has to be lined up to the audio track?
Why is there no timeline? This looks like a big step backwards if this function is gone.
Vinny.

Hi Vinny
This seems to be the major drawback - making use of iMovie 08 near NON.
I will stay with iM HD 6, FCE and FCP. May be it is Apple way of pushing
uppward and forward.
SO THEY OUGHT TO REDUCE THE PRICE WITH SAME as for the investment of
iLife 08 for the people that goes for FinalCutExpress !!
This was the most disapointing upgrade I've seen so far.

  • Editing video and audio tracks together in timeline

    I've had problems regarding the editing of audio and video tracks. For example, if I have a clip (1v, 2a tracks) that I put in the timeline and try to cut it using the razor blade, it will only cut the video track. Before, I used to be able to click only once and all the associated tracks (the 2 audio ones in this example) cut together at the same point. I know it's possibly a keyboard shortcut or something like that, but I've looked and looked and now it's making me crazy.

    You probably need to turn Linking on (Command L). There is a little button on the upper right corner of the timeline that looks like a chain, click it.
    If that doesn't work, you could use the Blade All tool, press B twice.

  • Video/Stereo Audio tracks won't edit together

    My video and audio tracks no longer edit as a (linked) unit.
    For example, when I select a clip in the timeline and apply the razor tool it only affects the video track....then I must also select the audio file and apply the razor tool again.
    I notice this is now a condition with any FCP project I open...so I am guessing it is a Preference issue. Somewhere along the path, I must have changed something...but haven't found the way back and I am sure there is a simple solution.
    I am using FCP 4.5
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Your clips are coming into the Timeline unlinked. Click the link toggle button near the upper right corner of the Timeline window and then bring your clips in.

    Hello All...
    Back after a brief absence, things look a little bit different.
    I'm trying to take a 16 minute mini dv video and compress it for use on the web. I'm interested in any suggestions you may have on settings for the video and audio tracks. I've tried using Sorenson 3 (15 frames, key frames set to automatic, 320 x 240) for video and IMA 4:1 (mono) for audio. The resulting video looked great but the file size came in at about 255 Mb.
    Thanks!

    Thank you for the replies.  Everyone was correct about the jack, interface, and phasing problems.  I have been unplugging my motu audio interface and then using headphones at work.  I have not changed any detailed audio output settings in logic.  When I read that the jack might be a problem I tried switching headphones.  This actually helped.  I am using dre-beats headphones and they seem to be having issues with the mac/jack-(the phasing/panning problems.  I can use these headphones with other devices but not the mac.  I have to use ipod ear buds and the phasing seems fixed.  Hopefully this information is helpful to someone else. 
    If anyone knows how to correct this issue please let me know its difficult to know what my final mixes are going to sound like and I have had to keep bouncing everything into i-tunes- sync to ipod and then listen in my car radio. 

  • How to apply same editing to further audio tracks...

    Hello all,
    i've just made a very complicated sync between a video and audio track within an FCS project.
    The video was untouched and i edited the stereo audio track.
    Now i would like to apply the same editing to the .ac3 version of the just edited stereo version.
    There is a way to do that without remake manually the full work on the ac3 version?
    Many many Big Thanks in advance

    You might (and I emphasize might) be able to do this by making a duplicate of your sequence, selecting the audio clips in the timeline and making them independent and the reconnecting them to your new audio clips.  Probably need to duplicate the audio tracks for each new audio element of the 5:1.    Things could get screwed up, so make sure you have your project backed up.  Might be simplest just to match your edits.

  • Video and Audio Track Destination in FC Pro

    Sometimes my Source Bar (In the Timeline) doesn't allow me to execute it. That is in the video and audio tracks.

    Hi there,
    I just came across this problem. I had a clip in the viewer with video and audio and a sequence in the timeline. But somehow FCP wouldn't let me edit the video into the timeline, I couldn't patch the video.
    So I opened up another sequence. Same thing.
    Third sequence, and the video track selector miraculously appears.
    Any ideas? After I quit and restarted FCP, it all worked normally.
    Tales from the not-so-far-side, I guess.....
    Cheers,

  • Editing and Exporting Audio Track Only

    Is it possible to just edit and export the audio track from a project that contains video and audio? I turned off the video track, and was able to make edits on the audio track but when I export the edited audio track entire unedited audio track is exported.

    That did it. I didn't have the audio timeline material selected as the active window.
    Many thanks.

  • Can I link and lock video and audio tracks - layers - as in Photoshop?

    I'd like to link and lock entire clips of video and audio tracks, as I might in Photoshop, so that I can insert some material ahead of this group without having to move each separate tack in my timeline. I have a group of clips which works well together now, and it would be so nice to be able to link them, lock them together as on unit, and just insert the new material into the timeline ahead of this piece. Any ideas?

    What version of Premiere Elements and on what computer operating system?
    For now, a generalized Premiere Elements Windows answer.....
    You would select all the clips (all at one time) that you want to move together, then Clip Menu/Group.
    Or right click anywhere in the selection to bring up the pop up menu including the Group option.
    Have you been there and done that yet?
    Please supply more information so that we can fine tune the information that you seek.
    Thank you.

  • Can't play Video and audio tracks.

    What software components are necessary to play the video and
    audio tracks on OTN.
    I'm using Windows 2000.

    Most of the iDevelop 2001 videos and audios require a Real
    Networks player.

  • How many video and audio tracks now?

    If there is one single bad thing in iMovie is the lack of tracks. Most "consumer editors" would like at least 3 sets of stereo audio tracks and the titles would be nicer on a separate track. But in the iMovie site there is no mention to those things. Strange, every video app site has some specs about video and audio tracks, even the free ones.

    Hi John,
    Unfortunately the iMovie '06 has the exact same arrangement as '05: One video track and two audio tracks. I was so badly hoping for at least a second video track in the new version because that makes things so much better, but for some reason they didn't add one. They probably know that less people would shell out $300 for Final Cut Express if they added a second video track to iMovie. sigh
    A big disappointment.

  • Combining Separate Video and Audio tracks

    Hi, what's the best way to combine a video and audio tracks into a single file? We will be given the video and audio from 13 volleyball games, and each game will be coming as a file.mpg (mpeg2) video and an mp3 file.
    We're looking for a way to either manually bring it in, or bulk automate a way of combining the two tracks for each game to have one file that is in a format that doesn't need to be rendered in FCP.
    Thanks!

    Seems like there should be some way to combine clips somewhere though? < </div>
    Not if they're form separate devices or in different codecs. the MPEG2 files are the big problem, next time, have your people shoot conventional DV and use the audio interface to bring in a feed from your announce booth or radio station or whatever so it's in sync.

  • Independant video and audio tracks separate

    I am using Premiere Elements 12 on a PC. I am working on a multimedia project combining video, stills and audio. Independant video and audio tracks separate when I insert a still image on another track. The tracks are not grouped or linked together. I do not know how to prevent this happening. The manual suggests pressing the Alt button when inserting but this does not work.

    skinnymurray
    Holding down the Alt key of the computer main keyboard does work and works well under most ordinary conditions. Please practice and refine your Alt technique with care patience. But....
    Have you tried keeping certain parts of your established track content together by using the Group command after selecting a
    bunch of clips all at one time?

  • Video and audio tracks not synchronized after importing

    When I try to watch a video in quicktime or itunes video and audio tracks not synchronized. If I wach on another player they are synced. Anyone help?

    John:
    Thanks for your reply.  Excuse my referring to you as "Kevin".  I'm new to the Adobe Community.  I have also referenced another article which is seemingly a bit easier to fix for such a non-technical woman like myself.  I'm going to try both solutions.  Whichever works I'll be sure to reply to the thread with my findings.  I found this article which provides the following solution:  http://blog.flickharrison.com/2012/04/problem-solving-in-adobe-premiere-audio-glitches-and -sync/

  • Video and Audio Track Selection

    Is there any quick way to do this? Nothing in the keyboard shortcuts menu that seems close to "Sleect Video Track 1", "Select Audio Track 1", etc. Is it only achieveable with a mouse? Thanks all.

    I have made custom keyboard shortcuts for video and audio tracks using Toggle Track.
    I use numbers 1 to 7 for Video and Shift 1-7 for Audio.
    In conjunction with Mouse clicking and shift mouse clicking on tracks..does all that I need.

  • When I drag a synchonised clip to timeline, can I turn off the video's audio track only without breaking apart clips?

    I have preparred many clips by synchonising them with audio recorded on H4N - and have these in keywords.
    When I drag them to the timeline, do I have to break apart each clip item to turn off the video's audio track or is there a shortcut to doing this?

    For each clip you can go to the audio portion of inspector and uncheck/disable the tracks you don't desire. That would take longer than Tom's method, but I think the audio won't show up as a blank later on.
