Exporting video quicktime h.264 from .avi has no sound

Hi,
I am on CS4 extended.
I am trying to export an avi video to a quictime h.264 video and I have no sound.
Although I did that and having sound, I dont know why it stopped suddenly.
I recorded something in the same time with cam studio. May be that's why.
So I shutted down the computer and reopened it.
Same problem.
Someone has a clue?
Thanks for your attention,
JP

JP,
I do not have my CS5 Extended handy, so will go from the Premiere Pro (Adobe's video editor) side of the street. Bear with me on this, as PS-Extended might do things a bit differently.
When one is Exporting an AV file, there are two things that must be set:
Exporting both Audio & Video (in PrPro, these are done via checkboxes in the Export>General dialog screen)
Then, one must set Multiplexing * on the Export>Multiplexing dialog screen, to anything but "None." The choice is usually "DVD."
It's the Multiplexing Tab, that many miss. If set to None, then there will be two separate Export files - one for the Video stream, and one for the Audio stream.
Hope that gets you close, and sorry that I cannot open things up, and give you the exact screens and tabs in PS-Extended.

* Multiplexing is the combining of both the Audio & Video streams into a single, discrete file. Multiplexing is usually OFF by default, though in PrPro, it's a "sticky," in that it retains the last setting, so if the user wishes to make a change, they must do so manually, and that setting will then stick, until changed again. The Export of separate files for Audio & Video is most often used, when one is doing the Export to go to a DVD, or BD authoring program, like Adobe Encore. It works best with elemental streams, rather than muxed files, and especially with MPEG Audio.

I'm attempting to export a quicktime file to an AVI file via quicktime pro. Which settings would yield an uncompressed AVI file? There seem to be just a few options, would I choose cinepak?

Can't export Quicktime H.264 from AE CS4

Whenever I try to set the export module to Quicktime H.264 I immediately get the error/message, "For reliable output with H.264 compression, please choose it directly from the Output Module Format menu instead of via Quicktime."
If you try ro render, you only get an error and there is no render.
What could be going wrong? Is a plugin not working? The only thing I can think of is I updated to Quicktime 7.6 a few days ago. Anyone else experienced this problem?

I'm encoding at 640x360. I usually use profile level 4.1, but this is only going to be directed towards software not hardware. There are work arounds to this, lots of them. Like encoding using Quicktime Animation codec and then re-encoding to Quicktime H.264 out of PP CS4, Sorenson Squeeze, or even Quicktime itself. All will work well. But the thing is that a person shouldn't have to go through a two-step work around like this. You want to maintain quality but Animation files are relatively huge. (By the way, its funny how PP CS4 has no problem exporting QT H.264).
How would I use Adobe Media encoder directly? Just drop the project from AE into the queue?

HD Export to Quicktime H.264 quits after approx. 14 minutes

How can I enable Quicktime h.264 to accept video exported from my Avid editor longer than around 14 minutes ? The HD 720p video sequence is 40 minutes in length. Quicktime quits at around 14 minutes. Thanks.

Well I didn't end up doing that, since it was going to be so time
consuming
Well, proper conversion will be time consuming. That is unavoidable. I showed you a bunch of options that can drastically speed it up, but it is always a tradeoff of time vs. quality. There is no "perfect" method of doing these conversions.
and my client wanted a compressed format anyway. So I
thought it would save time to convert straight from the PAL QT file to
h.264, as well as being higher quality.
Yes, but by converting it "straight" to h.264, you will be using the crappier deinterlacing of AME or ProCoder, thus lowering the perceived quality regardless of output format. Also: if you use a lossless or uncompressed AVI intermediary, there will be no loss of quality.
I don't have an uncompressed NTSC Quicktime file. Is there a way to do that?
Create your lossless AVI file using some variation of the process I showed you before
Open Adobe Media Encoder
Drag the AVI file into Media Encoder's Queue
Create a custom QuickTime setting (such as 1920x1080, 29.97 fps, no compression)

AME fails to export as Quicktime H.264 each time

Hello all,
I'm having a problem.
I'm trying to export a project out of Premiere CS4, as Quicktime H.264.
Every single time that I try to export it, it seems to go though 99% of the process smoothly, yet on the last few seconds AME just stops and refuses to complete it (and can stand like that for hours). When I try to cancel the process AME freezes completely and force quitting it is the only solution.
I tried searching the forums but I couldn't find anything like this. Is there anything that I'm missing/doing wrong? A known issue? etc.
Using OS X 10.5.5 with all updates. Premiere/AME CS4 with all updates also installed.

Please provide
these details to help us help you.
Cheers
Eddie

How do I import a video in mp4 and export in QuickTime H.264?

Or is that even possible? Whenever I try I get a error "Incompatible codec..."

It's one file that was produced in a different video software that I used before purchasing Premiere Pro.
Most of it is composed of a series of stills, though there is a portion that is video (mp4 from the old software). I'm assuming I might have better luck creating a new video and exporting it in that format by importing the stills and video and working with them in Premiere Pro.

Cannot export video: AME cannot read from source, Installation Error

Ok, I've seen a lot of people on here talk about this and I have tried using their solutions but nothing has worked.
I cannot export anything from Premier Pro using Media Encoder. When I try, I get an yellow warning sign saying that it cannot read from the source, and when I close out of it I get a message saying that there is an installation error and that I need to make sure it is installed correctly. I have uninstalled and re-installed ALL of my Adobe products about three times this past weekend trying to fix it and nothing has worked. I have tried making sure that there are no blank spaces in my project, I have named it several different things, I have moved it from my external drive to my main drive, to a different external drive, etc.
I am using a Macbook Pro with Snow Leopard, all of my software has been updated, and I am very frustrated.
Help?

Bummer!
Well, it was worth a shot, as externals/network drives have been known to cause similar.
Now, there were issues with Encore and Snow Leopard, but I do not recall all of the details, as I am a PC-guy, and have to admit that first I do not know squat about Macs, and probably do not read Mac threads as closely, as I should. Seems that Apple was working on an update to Snow Leopard, and again from recollection, it seems that that update helped several on the Encore forum. Have you updated Snow Leopard?
Sorry to just sit here guessing, and probably wasting valuable time for you, but until a Mac-user with the "fix" comes along, the PC-community will try to help. Be patient with us though. Our intentions are good ones, but our expertise is lacking - at least in MY case.
Good luck,

Wish to save export setting of H.264 from Final Cut Pro

I am using the quicktime conversion pull-down menu in FCP to create H.264 or MPEG-4 files with certain settings for Vimeo. I wish to save my settings for export rather to avoid having to re-enter them next time. The most recent settings option is not sufficient for me as I have a couple different sets of settings. In the quicktime conversion menu I do not have the option to save my settings like I do in the export quicktime movie pulldown.
Is my solution using compressor? If so, do I then have to use APak to compress the audio?
Thank You.

You can build custom presets in Compressor and use those.
The procedure is quite straightforward and covered in the Compressor user manual.
do I then have to use APak to compress the audio
No, you can let Compressor handle the audio too.

Premiere Elements 8: Audio sync problem when exporting to Quicktime H.264

Program plays back fine on the timeline also when saved as a mpeg file. QT file audio sync is off. Using QT player to play back. Any thoughts?

Check you have the very latest version of QuickTime (7.7.1 at time of writing): QuickTime 7.7.1 for Windows

Audigy 2 ZS Video Editor - recording audio from optical digital in - sound drops

Hi guys
I've had an audigy 2 zs video editor for a couple of months now and it's greatly improved my audio output from my computer.
But the other day I started trying to record vinyl onto my computer directly.
In the past I've always used my hifi cd recorder deck, then ripped the audio off the cd.
So I have my turntable connected to my amp, and I use my minidisc deck as a DAC, then record using an optical from my minidisc DAC, to the optical input on the front of the audigy.
So I fire up the creative smart recorder software and start messing with the levels.
I also use a free bit of software from
http://www.darkwood.demon.co.uk/PC/meter.html
called meterV which gives me a larger and more prominent read out of the level.
I then fine tune the output level on my DAC.
I have the stereo line out sockets on my audigy connected to an input on my hifi amplifier for listening to digital music etc.
So I start the vinyl and the sound starts coming through my DAC into my soundcard, the level readings start going, and the sound comes out of my hifi speakers.
My amp's switched to the audigy input - not the turntable
The problem is... every 30 seconds or so, the sound cuts out for 2-3 seconds and then resumes.
But the sound doesn't drop off on the level meters, or on the actual recording (recording 44.khz, 6bit wav file).
Only on the stereo line out of the audigy.
I ran the following test to see if the sound also cut out on the optical and coax outputs...
Whilst recording from the optical input, I've also tried recording to a minidisc portable from the optical out at the same time.
And the sound cuts out the same as when listening to the stereo line outs.
So the sound cuts off on the line out, the optical out, and also the coax out.
But this only happens when recording from the optical input.
When recording from the stereo line in - the sound doesn't cut out on any output!!!
The input selected in creative smart recorder is SPDIF.
This problem happens when smart recorder isn't even running - if I'm just listening to the line outs the sound cuts out.
But if I'm just playing back an MP3 or any sound, and there's nothing coming into the inputs, then playback is fine!!
So it's not a connection issue!
It doesn't seem to be triggered by sound frequencies - it seems to happen every 30-40 seconds no matter what is being recorded (it does the same thing when playing a CD so it's not just when using a turntable)
I've tried restarting the computer several times.
All the connections are properly seated.
I've had task manager loaded whilst this is happening to check CPU usage, and nothing - it just continues in a fairly straight line as normal. No spikes in CPU usage (I would have thought it unlikely that the video editor would be affected by such things anyway being an external box).
There is nothing else connected to USB - other than an internal memory card reader attached to a motherboard USB header.
And a wireless adaptor also connected to the motherboard - but the problem still happens when the wireless adaptor is disabled.
There's also nothing else connected to the USB ports on the Video Editor box.
Machine spec:
Shuttle SN4G2-v3
AMD Athlon XP 3000+
GB memory
80GB IDE HDD, 2 x external Lacie FireWire 250GB dri'ves
LG dual layer dvd/rw/ram
Win XP Pro SP2
I've not upgraded firmware or drivers - just used the installation from the CD.
What confuses me is why this only happens when recording from the optical input, and it affects all outputs but the recording and the level monitor show no trace of the temporary loss in sound!
So the audigy is receiving the sound, but it just drops off the outputs for some reason!
Any ideas?
I hope the above explanation is clear.
Thanks
Ben

Ok, so I go to Creative Device Control, and on the PCI/USB tab I've changed the sampling rate to 48khz.
It was previously at 44.kHz
The bit depth is still at 6bit
Now the problem seems to be solved.
The problem was only with the output from the device. And now there are no skips!!
Excellent!
Why has that solved it though?
I've read on other forums (head-fi) that the audigy cards do not run at 44.kHz nati'vely so the sound has to be downsampled.
Is that skipping an artefact of that downsampling process?
Will having that set at 48kHz, but recording to a 44.kHz 6bit wav file theoretically reduce the quality of the recording - compared to having it set at 44.kHz and recording a wav at 44.kHz?
On the SPDIF tab the input sample rate is shown as 44.kHz - as that's what is output by the DAC in my minidisc deck.
But when I changed the sampling rate on the PCI/USB tab, the SPDIF output sampling rate also changed to 48kHz.
This means if I wanted to record from the optical output, whilst also recording to the computer, and that device only supported 44.kHz - I can't do that?
You listed some main reasons to the truth, why Creative SB cards are not very popular on serious use (DAW). I.e. need for resampling. X-Fi's in creation mode are (least said to be) the only ones not resample everything.
There is a setting for "Bit-Accurate-Recording" (digital modes only) --> have you tried if that works on your recordings?

Export/Convert to h.264 results in jerky video in WMP

System: Windows 7 Ultimate x64 EN
In Premiere Pro CS4 and Adobe Media Encoder CS4 I have problems exporting video to h.264.
Please download the sample file here:
http://www.tsxn.com/storage/transfer/premiere_h264.zip
Source:
H.264 HDTV Testvideo (e.g. "01-TestVideo_Original_h264.MOV")
Profile: 1920x1080 fps 30, square pixel, progressive
Destination:
For Testing purpose, just converting the original within the Adobe Media Encoder
Profile: same as Source
1) The original source file plays fine using any player, so the hardware of my test systems (3 computers) is ok
2) When exporting the Video to H.264 (e.g. "02-TestVideo_Convert_h264.mp4") the resulting video is jerky in Windows Media Player and Quicktime
3) Strange: When converting the jerky result video again (e.g. "03-TestVideo_ConvertAgain_wmv.wmv") , but now into WMV, it plays fine again
Can anyone confirm this problem on his system?
It seems to me that Windows Media Player and Quicktime enforce their own h.264 decoder which has problems playing Premiere Exports. VLC Media Player and the Adobe media player for example seems to have no problem at all.
Any help is highly appreciated!
Thank you
Chris

Jim, thanks for testing.
My concerns are about a)distribution and general b)compatibility.
a) When videos are distributed most of the users will probably try to open the files with Windows Media Player. So it is not a good start to have fresh exported h.264 videos which won't run fine with the 'main' player on windows
b) I am wondering if the Problems with Windows Media Player may also be a sign of a general compatibility issue of the h.264 video itself
At least in case b) Adobe would have to look into this.
Here is another test video:

Exporting H.264 from Premiere

I hope you can, please, help me with this one:
How is possible to export movies in H.264 from premiere?
I tried it using the Quicktime option, but all I got was an "Error Compiling Movie" message.
Also, I can´t find any options to export movies in MPG format (which uses AVC/H.264)
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Chico

I had the same problem. Not only with h.264 but couldn't export quicktime at all without getting the "Error Compiling Movie" message.
Reinstalled Quicktime (Pro) and made no difference...Didn't have time to troubleshoot further so I exported avi uncompressed and sent it off and got on with my life. I don't have to do much with quicktime so its not a big deal for me but I sure would love to know why it won't work for me...

Keynote 6.0 Video not playing (export to Quicktime)

I have a presentation with a few embeded videos. No matter what I do, they videos will not play when exporting the presentation to Quicktime. The same presentation in Keynote '09, export to Quicktime works without issue. Has anyone had similar issues?

Here's what I found ... I had to install Quicktime 7 and use iwork 09' (using them in mavericks) ... Using those two and opening projects in those two, works the way it should be.
There's an issue with the NEW Quicktime ... Even if you open and older .mov, it still won't let you control your keynote prsentation.
If you want to control your keynote presentation ( like the way it was), then search Quicktime 7 and use iwork 09'.
Here's what I don't understand ... Being able to convert any keynote presentation to a .mov is a major deal for videos. When they release the new stuff, doesn't anybody actually look at it first? ... Ya' know, to see if it actually works before releasing it? I get that a few things can slip by, but c'mon, major funtions ???
ALSO ........ When exporting the new keynote ( version 6). You can't export to a .mov ... It says quicktime, but it saves to a mv4.
I can see adding value, but stop taking away value !!!!!!!!!
