FCP 5 Audio Capture Bug and Aurora Video Systems

I think Apple know about this one. Aurora says that FCP 5.0x has a bug that makes setting audio capture levels imposible when using the Igniter.
Will Apple fix this?

Are you sure all your settings are correct? Choose HDV 1080i50 Easy Setup >and make sure all your settings are correct on the camera.
VCR HDV/DV > HDV
iLINK CONV > OFF
TV TYPE > 16:9
A/V DV OUT > OFF
Yes, the settings are correct. - But I'm not shure, if you use the same releases than me.
I use: FCP 5.0.3, Mac OS X 10.4.3, QT 7.0.3 - maybe my problems depend on this.
And to clarify this a little bit more:
FCP logs the capture files on my harddisk, but I do not see them in my appropriate project. I have to import and rename them manually (from "Untitled" to the project name), after capturing...
First I thought that there was a camera recognition problem, because it seemed to me that nothing happened while capturing. Then I found that the captured files are on my hard disk, but named "Untitled".
In the past this worked fine (with an older cam, but I don't think it's a cam problem)!!!

    After recent upgrade to Yosemite on Macbook air bluetooth audio cuts out and associated video stops with audio. Likewise with airplay and Apple TV. I have deleted all my saved wifi connections and restarted numerous times. I do not expect a resolution from the community, but hope to get the attention of Apple engineers. If you are having same problems or have a miracle cure I am all ears.

    May start my own thread, but I'm having similar issues.
    I've been using an old iMac (running 10.7.5) and Apple TV for years with no issues. Last week I bought a new Macbook Pro running Yosemite and have had audio issues multiple times. The weird thing is that sometimes it works flawlessly, other times (like now) I spend half an hour just trying to get a song to play.
    My issues are: When I got to "computers" in Apple TV to stream my music, my music is sometimes chopper or intermittent, and I seen to know when it's going to happen based on the status wheel just before it plays. When I choose a song, the status wheel will spin for an unusually long time, usually an indicator that the audio is either not going to work, or stutter.
    When it does finally pull up a song, the playhead sits at the beginning of the song for a good 3-5 seconds before actually playing. Then, when it starts playing, it's all downhill. It will play a few seconds, drop out, play a few more seconds, drop out, and then ultimately the playhead will keep moving across the song as if it's playing, but there's no audio.
    Again, this is a new phenomenon never experienced by me. I've tried everything I could think of, some of them all at once:
    • restart Apple TV
    • restart Macbook Pro
    • quite iTunes/open
    • turn off Home Sharing on iTunes then reconnect it
    • unplugging and cycling both my modem and router
    None of these have alleviated the problem.
    The odd thing is, like this morning, the audio started up perfectly and never gave me any issues. It wasn't until later in the day that it started. Perhaps after the macbook pro had been put to sleep? Not sure.
    Regardless, this is an annoying trait, one that's new to me and my system (as stated, worked flawlessly until my new purchase), and is 100% limited to either a) the macbook pro b) Yosemite or c) both of them.

  • Is There a Public "Bug and Issue Management System" for Strobe Media Playback?

    HI all,
    Is there a public "Bug and Issue Management System" for Strobe Media Playback?  Or is this forum the only officially supported public mechanism for SMP bug reporting and feature requests?
    (fyi, I ask in part because SMP is built on top of OSMF, and both projects are led by development teams at Adobe.  The OSMF project, however, has fuller level of support including "Bug and Issue Management System" here:
    https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FM   )
    Thank you to all of the SMP team for this great player!
    Best regards,

  • Does FCP 4.5 have audio channel bug, and can only do 2 audio channels?

    I transferred my digibeta project with 4 audio channels (2 are Music & Effects) to an uncompressed QT at a dubbing facility. I can play the QT with all 4 channels heard on my G-5 Powermac, but when I import the QT file into FCP 4.5 (to do some re-cutting), it will only import two audio channels (the Music & Effects) and not my other two stereo tracks with dialogue. and it's not the timeline because I have four channels available -- it's the actual imported file losses two of the audio channels on import into FCP. I tried importing the same file into iMovie and it plays all four channels,unlike FCP. I have three computers with 4.5, and each of them have the same problem. Is there a setting that will change this, or should I just throw FCP 4.5 away. Will I have the same problem with 6.0?
    Bryan

    If you want to work with 4 Channels, throw out version 4.5 and get 6. Version 4.5 could only work with 2 channels. This changed with the 5.0 version. It's not really so much of a bug with 4.5 as just not being implemented in that version.

  • C3 bugs and password, settings, system restore

    hey does anyone know of any bugs for the c3. And how you can get them?
    just want to know coz i want to be careful with my phone. also the system restore is not an option for me as i dont know the password. 
    People have said the password is 12345 but that doesnt work for me and i have never changed it. If anyone has help with this please help.

    Bugs generally means errors in the programming in an items firmware, operating system or even additional software, you cannot "get" them like a virus.
    Sometimes (sic) these errors are not noticed at the manufacturers testing stage especially if the item is rushed to market.
    When a phone is released to hundreds of thousands of users any errors or shortcomings soon turn up and the manufacturer releases updates to fix these.
    To further complicate the matter network operators choose their own version of the operating system (usually with certain functionality/menus disabled and their own logos replacing the manufacturers.) and they decide what updates to release. (Usually none because the update would revert the phone to the manufacturers menu unless they paid for a bespoke update. And why should they bother, they have already got your money....)
    Major bugs on the are C3:
    1: When accessing the internet it does not always give you the option of whether to connect by wlan or gprs despite all settings being correct.
    I thought i had this fixed after following advice on this forum, but after working for a day the problem came back despite the fact i have not changed anything. Go figure..
    2: Probably related to the above. Sometimes remains connected via GPRS even though set to "as needed", meaning it should disconnect when you close the browser. (Mine even reconnects after restarting the phone.) Cost a fortune in data charges! I am going to pursue my operator for this(Tesco).
    My phone is vers 04.45 There is an Nokia update for this phone which presumably fixes these bugs but my operator has not approved it so I'm stuck, if I take it back I'll get offered a replacement (it will have the same problem, no point) or a refund. Trouble is I really like this phone, (wifi for £70!!) if it worked as intended it would be a great phone. Come on Nokia, this is damaging your reputation, search your own boards, loads of people have these problems, what can we do!

  • "Audio Capture Device not selected" message?  Help please!

    Howdy folks,
    I just got a new PC, Windows 7 OS, I've installed ManyCam and version 3.2 of FME and am looking to broadcast again.  I don't recall this issue with my old PC (XP OS, Broadcaster StudioPro virtual cam and FME 2.5).  I updated to 3.2 as suggested/recommended in previous posts, but I am getting a message telling me to "please select audio capture devise connected to your system."  What am I doing wrong or might there be something that I need to download that I missed?
    Any help you can give is greatly appreciated.  I truly loved using FME 2.5 but am doing like you suggest here.
    Peace,

    Hello -
    My problem was fixed by setting a recording devise in my "sound" menu.
    What I did was -
    1.  Open the sound menu from the control panel.
    2.  clicked on the recording tab.
    3.  Chose "Stereo Mix - Realtek High Definition Audio" as my default device.
    That solved it.  It was almost too simple.    Hope this helps you!

  • Minor bug: Smart Audio and voice/video call

    Hi. There is a slight bug regarding the Smart Audio driver. Here's how to get the problem:
    1. As we all know, the speakers for X220 isn't exactly loud. So I overcame this problem by going in Smart Audio and selected the custom preset for EQ, setting all the sliders to maximum.
    2. Go have any kind of voice/video call, be it Skype or MSN. As Smart Audio senses a voice call, it sets the audio into VOIP mode.
    3. Here's the problem. After you finished the voice call, the EQ settings doesn't go back into my previous setting (the custom preset), rather, it goes back to "Off", the default setting.
    Thank you.

    hey jamestan,
    have you tried uninstalling the Smart Audio driver and then install the latest version which is available on our website?
    If not, kindly do so.

  • RGB, Composite, Firewire and S-video capture device for FCP

    Hi,
    I was just wondering if anyone could suggest some of the better capture cards that support RGB composite, firewire and s-video inputs that will work with FCP.
    The set up is on Mac Pro and the device needs to be as reliable and noise free as possible as it will be used for the capturing of video for evidence in court cases.
    Any help is this area would be very grateful,
    Regards,
    Martin.

    Hello,
    I have no experience with the AJA product line but I know that many of the folks here have used them. They make a good line of cards that will do what you are asking for. They don't have firewire on the cards, but the computer you are using should have one I would assume.
    Since you said 'S-Video' my thoughts are that you are only using SD? If that is going to be the case for a long time then look at this card:
    http://www.aja.com/products/kona/kona-lse-ls.php
    It has composite and S-Video inputs. IF there is the chance that you are going to be doing HD and IF it is still tape based, then look at one of the higher models. But again, that is if you are going to be upgrading to HD sometime soon.
    Hope this helps.

  • I've tried 2 different screen capture devices, and in both cases, audio stops recording after 20 or 30 seconds, but video is fine.  The audio disappears

    I've tried 2 different screen capture devices, and in both cases, audio stops recording after 20 or 30 seconds, but video is fine.  The audio disappears with both programs.  Does anyone know what is happening with my audio capture?

    Update, I took the webcam home over the weekend and tried on my home network and the outcome was the same video fine - audio delayed, is this a Skype for desktop issue?

  • Why can't I get any audio sound on my Hi8 video capture in iMovie?

    Hi
    I have just captured some video clips from my Hi8 Camcorder and exported it to iMovie on my Apple Mac. Unfortunately there is no audio sound on the captured video. Can any one help? I am using Roxio Video Capture USB to capture the video from my camcorder.
    Nazimoja

    >I am using Roxio Video Capture USB
    That's the problem.  The Roxio device captures in a highly compressed, multiplexed (muxed) format that isn't intended for editing.  Muxed files won't playback audio without the proper software installed on your system.  You could try using MPEG Streamclip to convert the captured files to an editable format, but that means you'll be taking a double hit on quality.
    The proper way to capture analog footage for editing is to use a  qualified "DV Device" (DV camcorder, converter or VTR) to convert the analog signal into a Firewire signal and use iMovie, FCE or FCP to capture and edit.  Or, in your case, you could use a Digital8 camcorder for playback directly via Firewire.
    FWIW, this is the Final Cut Studio forum.  The iMovie forum is located here: https://discussions.apple.com/community/ilife/imovie?view=discussions

  • Capture dvi and optical digital audio-in through one custom capture preset

    How can I create a FCP capture preset that will capture from a digital video to firewire box (grass valley (formerly canopus) advc-hd50) AND the optical audio in port on my desktop mac dual g5?
    I have HD dvi video (which has no audio content) and digital audio (or analog for that matter) that i wish to capture in sync then edit in FCP.

    if you go to audio/video settings you can duplicate a setup that is close to what you want and edit that setup. under capture presets> audio select whichever input on the mac you wish to use.
    consult your documentation with the capture device for the video side. when you have something that works save that as an easy setup (on the summary tab "create easy setup")
    I've never used either the optical nor analog in so I can't vouch for it's behavior however it is available as an option
    Hopefully your device will somehow pass timecode so edits are repeatable

  • I imported a video and when I play it back, the audio does not match the video. When I view the tape in my camera it looks fine. I've tried imported twice and each time it doesn't match. What can I do to fix this?

    I imported a video and when I play it back, the audio does not match the video. When I view the tape in my camera it looks fine. I've tried imported twice and each time it doesn't match. What can I do to fix this?

    The default settings mostly likely use an audio sample rate of 32k. This doesn't work probably in FCP. You're probably better off capturing the tape in iMovie.

  • Capturing VHS through DV cam to FCP - Audio clipping!!

    Hey all,
    I'm capturing a VHS through my DV cam (it has analogue to digital version) and when it comes into FCP the audio is clipping (going above 0db)
    Is there anyway to lower the input volume?
    Thankyou
    Paul

    The camera doesn't let you change the input volume
    What I did was:
    Made the VIDEO ONLY go from VCR > DV CAM > MAC
    But made the audio go to VCR > PC LINE IN > PC LINE OUT > DV CAM > MAC
    When the audio came through my PC - I lowered the LINE IN volume so on the FCP audio level meters the audio peaked at -6dbs.
    Not a bad idea hey
    Lucky I had all the cables and connectors laying around.

  • FCP 7 No Audio Captured

    Here is my Set up. I have a MacPro 10.6.1 Snow Leopard. Final Cut Pro all in put devices are connected through a AJA Kona LHi capture card and through the AJA KLHi box. When capturing, all the video is captured perfectly, but absolutely no audio is being captured. Nothing at all. No waveforms on the captured clips ... nothing. I can hear the audio fine during capture from the device, but it is not actually capturing the audio. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    How is audio connected to your breakout box? Are you able to see audio the audio meters move in the FCP Capture window?

  • No Audio during Log and Capture

    Hello, I have FCP 6.0 and am unable to hear my audio during log and capture. I have this problem on all 5 G5 Macs that I have, and have tried different editing docks and cables. I have used FCP for more than 5 years and have never had this problem. iMovie has audio during capture, so I am convinced that there is a pre-set in FCP that I don't have checked properly, but I've been over them many times and still have no answer. I searched past forums and didn't really find anything helpful to me.
    My pre-sets are set to DV NTSC 48kHz and the playback pre-sets are set to default. I can hear audio of my clips after I log and capture, but I still need to hear audio during importing. I'm more confused than anything. If anybody has had this problem before or any suggestions for me, I'm all ears.
    Thanks.
    John

    ... as Bogie says.
    However... this is a non-feature that dates back to slower CPU days... yet, still with all the different formats and such I (ME!!) I believe it's still good practice to leave it off.
    Devoting as much CPU work to the capture process lessens the chance for something to go wrong. You can easily monitor the audio directly out of the deck as needed.
    Sure -- octo cores need 30 apps open just to get your money's worth and I'm sure you won't have any issues using an 8th of one to send audio thru itself while the other 7 and 7/8ths are used for capture... but who wants to risk it?
    Not me... I'm to old to change my ways.
    Blast you FCP v1.2.5 on a beige G3 with 7gig and 15gig hard drive -- you taught me well.
