Export using "youtube" preset yields bad audio on my macbook
this is so weird. just to let you know off hand.
I take my Final Cut Pro HD video and send it to Compressor and export a "youtube" uploadable file (H.264 with stereo AAC audio). The resulting file has audio which almost completely goes away only when the stereo balance is set in the middle between left and right (in sound system preferences). This does now happen on my iMac however. Or on PCs. If I swing the balance to either left or right fully, the audio returns at full volume. This also is the case with anyone viewing the video on Youtube who happens to have macbooks.
my macbook is:
MacBook3,1
Intel Core 2 Duo
2GHZ
4 gigs ram
I've spent days trying to solve this problem. Please if anyone has had similar issues, let me know what you've found out. Any recommendations on how to troubleshoot this odd problem is greatly appreciated.

Couple of things that would help us help you:
1. define "HD" precisely.
2. How may audio tracks are you starting with?
3 You say: " This does now happen on my iMac however. " Is that a typo; did you really mean to say "does NOT happen on my iMac?"
Mismatched audio phasing is a good suggestion but so is an incorrect transcode from one audio sampling rate to another. The symptoms can be similar.

YouTube Claims PremiereCC Youtube preset is bad
I have premiere CC and try the H.264 Youtube preset and upload that file to Youtube and it responds by saying it is incorrectly encoded:

Can Adobe provide the proper Premiere settings for encoding to upload to youtube?
thanks!I'm sorry i guess i need to restate the issue, it "works" in that the file does get uploaded to youtube. However, Youtube does respond and say it is not "properly" encoded into a streamable format and thus they must spend a long time re-encoding the video to be usable. I would like to avoid this and have premiere encode the video to the proper Youtube specifications like their website lists.
I use this preset and get this message from Youtube that takes me to the link with the info from my original post: -
Concerned about rendering/exporting for too long - how bad is it for Macbook Pro?
If it's even bad at all...
I know these machines are made to take some strain, but I always get a little panicky when I need to export big jobs.
I'm currently busy exporting Quicktimes (not self-contained) of a project in which I had to key out backgrounds for what will eventually end up as a DVD. Thing is, I'm working in ProRes 422 (HQ) and the DVD's over an hour long in the end...
And I still have to grade later on, which means another render cycle, and after that, send to DVD, which means yet ANOTHER render cycle...
So I'm hoping those out there can help me put my mind at ease.
My Macbook:
Model Name: MacBook Pro
Model Identifier: MacBookPro5,3
Processor Name: Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed: 2,8 GHz
Number Of Processors: 1
Total Number Of Cores: 2
L2 Cache: 6 MB
Memory: 4 GB
Bus Speed: 1,07 GHz
CPU's currently running at 203 Fahrenheit (95 Celsius) and the fans are pumping at aroun 5500RPM. I imagine the machine will carry on like this for at least another 8 hours, if not 10 or more...
Can I rest easy or should I tell these inconsiderate, uninformed and ungrateful clients (who have no understanding of what postproduction ACTUALLY entails) to buzz off?
Thanks!Haha thanks, but believe me - I've reached my threshold.
I've hardly ever burnt bridges, and in this case the client is a photographer with a bunch of DSLRs who decided he's gonna do a multicam shoot and transcode everything to ProRes422. Which is all good, except the final DVD is arond 1.5 hours, and he wants the backgrounds replaced. So instead of shooting with a green screen, he just shot against his infinity curve - which ended up being a TOTAL nightmare for me because there is so much white in his shots that I just couldn't fathom why he wouldn't shoot green? On top of this, he brought me all the footage on a friggin' USB drive, and then expected me to copy it onto my drives. I informed him that I didn't have 500 odd gigs free and that he'd have to provide a faster drive. He did so, but the result is that the first day of post was spent copying files to the new drive.
On top of this, I decided to take on this job because a friend of mine couldn't do it, and I thought I'd help out - he gave me the impression that it would be a very easy 5 day job. If only - this friend drew up the initial quote, but he didn't take rendering or exporting time into consideration, and also didn't quote for an on-set post supervisor. The result is that he under quoted, and I'm fighting against time to get through cos I need to carry on with another job tomorrow. And the client hasn't even done a proper approval, provided me with music needed for the project, etc. etc.
****, I'm so over people who just don't understand or respect post. Anyway, excuse me for venting, I really needed to do that.
So you reckon the laptop will handle it? Any other thoughts out there? -

Urgent: BAD audio distortion on youtube upload.
Hi,
I finished an edit a few days ago and uploaded it to youtube. Image quality was all fine but the audio was awful. All distorted and seemingly over compressed, there was whirling and other odd noises. The audio is high quality, why is it suffering from compression? I used denoiser on many of the clips to tune down mic hiss. Is this an issuer? I tried about 10 different audio exports but none worked. Edit needs to be up asap, any help would be great.
My audio is from an Olympus voice recorder. Mp3 format, 192kbps, 44100 Hz.
I exported to youtube as high quality AAC audio. How can I solve this?
Thanks,
PatAnd the audio works without denoiser
So the Denoiser is causing an issue and the issue is caused by using a device not designed for HQ purpose?
Go with out the denoiser if you cant re record on something better. Is it a VO? -
Exporting from Media Encoder using Vimeo Preset and getting pixelated footage in a specific location
I am exporting a video using Vimeo preset 1080p 23.976 H.264. Everytime I export the entire video approx 5 minutes long I get pixelated footage at a very specific point every time. I've tried multiple workarounds, relinking the media, exporting to different location (willing to try anything at this point).
When I just export the specific problem area the problem is non existent.
Any advice/help is greatly appreciated.I am using the CC version, so I should be up to date from my understanding.
Magically, that worked! I'm just curious why I had that problem in the first place? Any insight?
Thanks again! You're quick response is much appreciated! -

Whenever I try to export using FCPX and Compressor 4 I always get something that looks like this:
Any idea why that is? I'm using all default settings on the youtube export, and I'm transcoding it using another mac via compressor.None of these answers are correct. The error favicon happens in Firefox for Android occasionally. When the browser is offline or on a poor network connection you will get a timeout error page.
We have a bug where the icon persists on reload. With a little time the favicon cache will expire and the favicon will be updated to the correct one. -
Audio Sync when Exporting Using Compressor
Hello!
Having an odd situation. Project in FCP 4.5 the audio is sync'd just fine in FCP export using Compressor and the audio is delayed about 5 seconds...so the video footage starts and about 5 seconds later the audio starts. Now, in the same project I have other footage and exported the same exact way without issues - I have no idea why this particular footage would be an issue! Because Compressor is exporting these files with the audio and video as separate files I am seeing this issue when the file is in DVD Studio Pro - but again none of the other files that are being placed on this DVD are having audio alignment issues...so this is not making sense.
I am not 'new' at this but I am no expert either - my main gig is audio - so I could really use some help.
Any suggestions? I am not sure what other information someone would need to help so ask away.
Thanks in advance!Well I REALLY need some help with this one! I have tried so many different 'work arounds' without success. As mentioned in my first post the audio is not sync'ing with the video when exported. I have tried Exporting the file in QuickTime, I have tried using Compressor again exporting just the video then the audio - pulling it into a new session and lining it up again but everytime I pull it the newly exported file into a new project and render it FCP crashes not allowing it to render (nice!). I actually started from square one capturing the video footage again and assemble the project again without luck. I simply cannot believe what a pain in the arse this is!! I need to get this project done and it simply won't do it.

No Audio when I export using quicktime conversion
Hi,
This problem has just started. In my time line my movie places with both audio and video. When I try to export it using quicktime conversion I get a file with video but no audio. If I go to the audio settings button and click preview, I hear nothing. I have exported using the exact same settings many times before without problems.
If I export the file using quicktime movie, I get both audio and video.
This is driving me crazy, Can anyone help? Thanks!I got no audio on the DVD when I exported from FCE using the Quicktime Movie setting. I finally determined it was because my audio was at 44.1k Hz. I upsampled to 48k and there was sound on the final DVD. This is not normally a problem when input comes from a camera, but if you are doing a DVD of a Keynote presentation and adding separate sound to it from a CD, this becomes a problem.
Certainly no more than a little annoying that there's nothing said during the FCE export that this audio won't be exported. It's just not there. -

Interlace Deinterlace Export and Youtube Problem
We bought a nice new high end consumer camera - the Panasonic HC X900M . For the price of about $800 this little camera shoots sharp, crisp, colorful, high definition video. My son is spending a year in China and did not want a large camera. Anyway....
It shoots in these modes I believe: 1080p and 1080i . So far so good. The video looks great. We get it into the computer. We did not want to buy a professional level video editing system / software.... So we have ADOBE Elements 10 (I believe it is 10 or 9). (I use CS6 and like Adobe editing.)
ELEMENTS does not work with 1080p. So we've decided to shoot in 1080i.
We bring the video clips into Elements. The settings for the project MUST MATCH the video shot... we understand that. The camera has different settings for 1080i shooting. They are HA HG HX HE = different mbps. (Here is a link to the specifications in case you cannot read the jpeg) http://panasonic.net/avc/camcorder/hd/x900_series/specifications.html
So we set the settings for the
project at 1080i DV. Can't remember if it was 60i or 30i ? (I don't have his computer here with me...I cannot verify exact project settings. We tried a few)
Does Elements support this camera's settings for video? In this case 1920 x 1080 60i ? (list above) Can Elements support any of these, and how? I assume so, but if one mode in particular should be used, please advise.
For testing we shot in HA I believe to get as much quality in 1080i. We edited a test sequence. It looks and sounds great, plays back just fine in laptop software. Then we export. (The goal is to compress down to the internet Youtube best quality.) We first go to export to Youtube / Web. But Adobe will not ACCEPT his user name and password. We cannot log on to Youtube. Yes, the password is correct. So that does not work. Strike one.
We decide to export to desktop. We try H.264 and try to set the settings correctly, but every attempt at every setting, results in bad interlaced video. Strike two. There are many many options for export settings. We have tried a great number of options.
Any settings suggestions to make this work? Besides deinterlacing every single clip on the timeline? Or is that the only option.
Is there any editing software you can recommend - not high end professional - that will work?
Thanks for the help.Premiere Elements can definitely work with video from this camcorder shot in 1920x1080 AVCHD at 60i. It also appears that your cam can shoot in both stereo and 5.1 audio, both of which Premiere Elements can support -- but take note of which you select so that you can match these specs when you set up your program.
Currently Premiere Elements doesn't support 1920x1080 at 60p -- that consumer interest in that format is growing, so you may well see support for it in an upcoming version of the program.
Most professional video editors will work with 1080p60, including Premiere Pro CS6 and Vegas Pro.
As for the different quality levels of your video, that's your call. The program should be able to work with any of them. But if you want the best results, I'd use the highest bit rate/quality. -
Hello,
I recently started my second video project for my family which is converting Video8 and Hi8 tapes to digital video and had a few questions regarding "Export using QuickTime".
I utilize a Digital8 camcorder to play my analog Video8 and Hi8 tapes with a DV FireWire cable so the camera does the analog to DV conversion when importing into iMovie 09. Next, I utilize the MPEG Streamclip to do the DV clip conversion using 720 x 480 (DV-NTSC) frame size settings and apply contrast & color alternations. Lastly, I import the new .mov clips into iMovie, create a new project, do some trimming and now ready to export.
Question: I don't plan to share to iTunes, iDVD, Media Browser, YouTube or MobileMe Gallery however I would like to export and put the video on a media center device. That leaves me with "Export with Quicktime" however there are quite a few export options, for example:
Movie to AVI
Movie to DV Stream
Movie to QuickTime Movie
Which export option is best to use in terms of no loss of video and audio?
Also, there is additional settings, Options button, to configure video settings (compression, frame rate, data rate, quality, dimensions) and sound settings (format, channels and sample rate & size). Are these settings or defaults good to go out-of-the-box or do I need to tweak?
Any experiences or recommendations on export options and video and sound settings would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave"DV will import just fine into iMovie 09 however when you render or export, iMovie uses 'single field processing' meaning every other horizontal line of the video is thrown out. In effect, reduces the sharpness of the footage. By using MPEG Streamclip, I am converting it into another format and then importing it back into iMovie."
I'm aware of the problem and I'm very curious about your solution. How exactly do you avoid the field drop issue? I thought you said you went from DV back to DV, which I thought would not have any effect on the field issue. Most other reports of working around the issue involve de-interlacing with, eg. JES Deinterlacer.
"Format: H.264, 640 x 480, Millions
Format: AAC, 2 channels, 44100 Hz
FPS: 29.97"
These are the AppleTV export defaults I guess? You could accomplish the same thing by an export via Quicktime, and then you'll get more control. IMHO, Apple's presets were chosen to produce "pretty good" quality at small file sizes. That's certainly a reasonable approach and they probably made a very well calculated compromise. But my preference is to sacrifice time and disk space to eke out a bit more image quality if I can.
Either way, these settings are very close to what I would use anyway, if your original video is 640 x 480. I thought my SD camcorder gave a bit more resolution before it croaked. Sorry I can't check it right now. Just be sure you're not losing resolution in the process. You could also bump the audio to 48 kHz if the input audio is at that sample rate. In the QT export, the other thing you can adjust is quality level; the default for AppleTV is probably "Good" or "Better" and single pass compression. Choosing "Best" multi-pass compression will take longer and give you a bigger file. You'll have to judge whether it's worth it. And just because you can see things on your monitor doesn't mean you'll see it on your TV - you have to test.
It's frustrating, but there really is no right answer to all this stuff, because the choices you make depend on your source and your display, and everything in between.
