FCPX 10.2 audio extremely poor from HDV import

As of version 10.2., audio imported from a SONY FX1k (tape-based camera, has extremely poor quality once in the browser or on the timeline. It sounds a little like phone calls over the internet at very low bandwidth. The last time I imported from the SONY FX1 was under version 10.1 and the audio was fine. When i play back the imported clip in QTPlayer 10 directly from the Original Media folder (via ...fcpbundle > Package Contents > ...), the audio is fine!! When I duplicate a clip from the Original Media folder to a folder outside of the package and then "re-import" it, audio again becomes terrible.
I tested this with older tapes i still have and imported without problems in older versions of FCPX. But in 10.2., that footage now has extremely poor sound quality.
Anybody else with this issue? Any ideas what could be going on?

I have the same problem. I can not import footage from my CF card using USB 3.0. The whole thing crashes.
So, a solution I found (not a solution but a work around!) is to do a camera archive in FCPX with your card and save it to either an external driver or to your desk top. Then disconnect the USB 3.0 and then import from your camera archive.
That worked for me.

  • Why does my audio not play from an imported pptx slide +

    I created a slide with Images, animations and audio in PowerPoint (2010) and then imported into Captivate 7 as a single slide*.  When I publish the slide into an swf file and play, the follows issues occur:
    One of the images does not display as contained in the pptx file - it does however show in the swf file in the same dimensions in alight wood grain image (like pine).  This image is in one corner of the slide.  The image below is that corner...!
    The audio does not play when the swf is played. No audio content is shown in the library list
    Also, the program I wish to insert the slides into requires individual slides - not whole presentations (it is not SCORM compliant).  What is the quickest way of publishing a multi-slide presentation into individual .swf slides?

    reinstall the movie, something crazy may have happened during the download, reinstalling it should fix the problem

  • Extremely poor sound quality on all apps after using Real Player!

    Hi there
    On my Leopard iMac (Core2Duo) I am experiencing extremely poor 'lo-fi-like' quality on all audio from all applications including iTunes, Quicktime and Safari as a result of using Real Player to play a file online.
    I very rarely use Real Player and this was the first time I'd used it in months to even a year. The file was a simple RAM file from a store website allowing me to listen to a sample of a music file. When played, the quality was low but I expected this from a music sample, and from Real Player. However, after closing Real Player, I noticed the sound quality had dramatically dropped to an almost un-listenable quality.
    I have restarted and uninstalled Real Player with no luck. The poor sound quality still comes through my internal speakers, as well as external speakers, so it seems like a software issue.
    Not sure what to do, please can anyone help as the audio is used all day every day on this iMac!
    Thank you

    Just tried it as I did get iLife with my Mac. GarageBand froze for the first few times I loaded it up, then I managed to get it to work. Played with the on-screen keyboard which produced perfect sound.
    Closed GarageBand, restarted iTunes, tested, working perfectly! Crystal clear sound back again!
    Thanks so much for that, really appreciated!

  • How do I add an audio crossfade to a cut without FCPx slipping the audio in-point?

    I'm a seasoned FCP editor, and I'm having some major issues doing what I consider to be very basic editing in FCPx.
    I basically have one video track shot on an DSLR along with a synced audio track from an external recorder. I'm using the blade the remove audio/video segments from the interview. This is working well, but what I want to do is apply an audio crossfade just to smoothen out the audio cuts. Normally, I can do this in FCP 7 just fine without affecting my existing cut positions.
    However, every time I do this in FCPx, it actually slips the in-point of the audio clip that is attached to the crossfade. Is there a way I can turn off this behavior?
    Even when I try to "Detach Audio", the in-point sliping still occurs when applying an audio crossfade, causing my video and audio track to move out of sync.
    Any tips would be great.
    It seems like Apple has taken a few steps forward while also taking a few steps back with this release.

    I think the default way transitions work is to ignore handles and instead use the visible media. I'm betting this is the way imovie does it, but I don't know.
    Try changing this behavior in the preferences by going to:
    Final Cut Pro --> Preferences --> Editing
    And then change the "Apply Transitions Using" setting from "Full Overlap" to "Available Media." I'm hoping this changes the default behavior back to how FCP 7 works.

  • Why the extremely poor sound quality in playback with itunes?

    I am having problems with the sound quality of itunes music. this applies to both downloads and cd's. This problem is new, I believe, and affects bluetooth speaker, earphones, and macbook pro internal speaker. All have extremely poor playback with itunes. This Problem does not happen with playback of youtube videos.
    Thanks for any advice you can give.

    I would be worth playing some tracks with Quicktime so see what the quality is like there.
    iTunes uses Quicktime to play music.
    Also check this Apple help on audio playback problems:

  • IMAC not Performing extremely poorly

    Please Help-
    I purchased two 24' iMAC machines for our office.
    Installed all my software from my mirror door G4, plus new copies of CS2 Suite.
    I can harldy switch from program to program, saving 100 mb files out of Photoshop takes fifteen minutes, Illustrator hardly works, safari crashes, the entire system runs extremely poorly.
    I have upgraded to 2gb of ram, but only 533 Mhz, I have no extra fonts loaded. I work off a firewire - 2.0 USB external drive, so no files are on the HD. The USB is plugged into the high speed port on the back of the machine.
    I have downloaded Cocktail and run scripts, restarted, verified and repaired permissions, zapped P-Ram, everything I can think- and these forums say to do - and nothing works.
    Many thanks in advance.
    Kevin

    If you used migration assistant to transfer files to your new mac, that is your problem. I have read about others on here who have had the same problem. Some programs and/ or files set up for power pc and not intel are causing your slowdown. You probably are going to have to reinstall osx and import them manually. It is tedious process, but it should solve the problem. I have not had this problem personaly, but others on here have and I do believe this is the fix for it. Try doing some other searches in the forums and see if there is anything else you can do. Also, photoshop is not yet universal and still set up for power pc so it's performance is going to be less than great. I wouldn't use 533 mhz memory in your mac. The specs are supposed to be for 667mhz memory. If that is causing your slowdown I am not for certain I am no computer engineer, but it would seem that using slower memory in the system would definitely cause performance issues. You are running a risky setup using memory not designed for your computer. Good luck.

  • Audio is distorted in hdv

    I am importing HDV video from a Canon HV20 using I Movie 06. The picture is good but the sound is distorted. It sounds like it is slow. The project imported at 1/2 to 1/4 time. Any suggestions as to how to solve this import problem?

    Erm, you've posted this message in the iMovie '08 section, and you may get a better response if you re-post it in iMovie HD 6, but as you're here..
    I've found this sometimes, and it's because - sorry! - your G4 is a bit too slow to capture HDV in real time. When this 'slow' audio has happened to me, I've quit from iMovie and restarted it. That empties iMovie's memory 'cache' (from where the audio plays slowly) and then iMovie generally re-reads the audio from the imported (and converted) footage, and it then plays correctly.
    Occasionally that doesn't fix it, but I can't remember what does (..because I changed to using a fast G5, and so haven't had this problem for a very long time).
    So for further up-to-date help about what to do, I'd re-post in iMovie HD 6. Sorry not to be able to help more..

  • Merging and saving audio capture + file from disk

    Hi,
    I need to combine an audio file (read from disk) with an audio capture from a microphone and save the combined audio to a file.
    I created processors for both, merged the data sources and created a processor from the merged data source.
    If I use that as an input to a player, it seems to play OK : I hear the combination of the audio file and the microphone over the speakers (albeit with a delay of the microphone input).
    But when I try to save this merged processor's data source (I tried 2 different ways based on samples I found) I get the following exceptions respectively

    Now that you've got as far as doing GUIs, you must learn to read the API. Here/s a link.
    Is it something like: out.textBox.text() ??
    Not quite. In fact, not at all. The syntax implies that out has a member textBox which in turn has a method text. That's pretty far removed from reality, isn't it?
    From the code you posted, you apparently know that out.println(...) takes a String parameter. Now go look up the API and find a method of JTextField that returns a String, that Returns the text contained in this TextComponent.
    ^Hint: it's a method inherited from JTextComponent^
    Get the text from the JTextField and pass it as a parameter to out.println. That's all there is to it.
    luck, db

  • Extremely Poor WIFI. Now have Bluetooth issues.

    I have been having an extremely poor WIFI connection. I recently upgraded to 10.4.6 and noticed this problem. Is there something wrong with 10.4.6 that would cause this or is it an internal problem with my PowerBook? Also is there anyway to check the AirPort card on my laptop?
    Well I am editing this to add another issue, i just noticed that my blue tooth just went unavailable. My bluetooth icon in the menu bar has a squigle through it. When I click on it it says that it is not available.
    Thanks in advance.

    As far as the wifi connection, powerbooks are notorious for poor reception. I haven't heard of 10.4.6 causing any new issues, but people have been complaining about the powerbooks' reception for a long time. iBooks and most pc laptops get better reception. In newer aluminum models, you can't check the airport card. It's inside the unit. In 1.25 aluminum powerbooks, I know you could access the airport card through the battery bay.
    For your bluetooth issue, I'd recommend restarting first of all. If that doesn't help, I'd reset your power management unit. You can find directions for your particular model here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449
    If that doesn't help, I'd boot from your software disc and run disk utility.
    Let us know if that does any good.

  • Why does my brand new HP Officejet 5740 have extremely poor quality scan results?

    My brand new HP Officejet 5740 has extremely poor quality scan results!  
    Excessive and unacceptable amounts of white specs appear in the resulting  jpegs, of what are  perfectly clean, orignal, dark,  documents, pages and  photos,  when placed into the scanner.  Why is this happening???
    Has anyone else experienced this problem?  If so, how did you resolve it?

    Hi @mpstone1,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you are not happy with the scan quality on your new HP Officejet 5740, when you scan something you are getting alot of white specs.
    I would like you to first perform a Hard Reset on the OJ 5740:
    1. Unplug all cables and memory cards from the printer. Unplug the power cord, directly from the back of the printer while the printer is still turned on.
    2. Unplug the other end of the cord from the power source.
    3. If there is a power module on the power cord, disconnect one end and reconnect it.
    4. After 60 seconds, plug the cord directly into a wall outlet (not a surge protector or battery backup as they can cause the printer to lose basic functionality over time).
    5. Plug the power cord into the back of the printer.
    6. The printer should automatically power back up. If it doesn't, turn it on with the power button.
    7. Try making a photocopy (if your printer is an all-in-on printer) before connecting any other cables to the printer.
    8. Connect any other needed cables to the printer.
    Please continue here: Vertical Bands, Lines, or Streaks in Copies, Faxes, or Scans, complete the steps listed, make sure the scanner lid is fully down when powering on, do not lift the lid until the printer is fully initialzied.
    If after the troubleshooting has been done the copy quality has not improved, contact our technical support at 800-474-6836 as it may be the hardware and you would still be in warranty. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

  • Extremely poor performance to various websites during peak hours - peering issue?

    Since approximately 26 Jan 2015, we have been experiencing extremely poor performance to several specific websites during peak hours, 9pm-11pm.  Page loads take many minutes (or never complete), etc.  Many other sites are perfectly fine, and if I connect to the same sites at the same time through my work VPN, they perform extremly well (under 1sec).  There is no correlation between OS or browser and the poor performance (tested on Windows, OSX, Linux) and speedtest typically reports over 80/80.
    I've not caught any packet loss using periodic pings.  Traceroutes indicate a bunch of different routes being used (I assume this is expected for CDNs), but here's one example of an obviously bad single traceroute:

    The sites in question use the Fastly CDN - my theory is that the VZ-Fastly connection is under provisioned or is broken, but I'm out of my depth at this point.  

    "This is a nationwide peering/routing issue that was intentionally created by Verizon to create congestion and (1) extract priority fees from the likes of Netflix and (2) get customers to subscribe to higher speed tiers. This has been acknowledged by the FCC. Verizon is building new interconnections to remedy the problem, but it will persist for at least another 6 months."

  • How can I get audio to play from my TV when using hdmi cable?  Video looks great, just no sound.

    How can I get audio to play from my TV when using hdmi cable?  Video looks great, just no sound.
    I've tried plugging the hdmi into the TV directly and the receiver.
    I get video every time.  HBO to Go , Xfinity, ABC, Youtube, etc...
    just no audio.  Any suggestions? 
    I've tried starting the apps then plugging in the hdmi cable.
    I never tried this before I upgraded to IOS 5.

    Claudiamil-
    I had not tried it with mine since upgrading to iOS 5, so I just did.  I'm using a small Vizio HDTV.  I did not try YouTube, but did try several videos and musical numbers.  In all cases there was sound, including stereo when the source had it.
    I assume you are getting sound from the iPad when the adapter is not connected, so the volume is not turned down.  Dah*veed's suggestion to reset may be what you need.

    Hello Achates:
    I did not read the rather long post. If you wish to reinstall OS X 10.4, use your software install DVD. Backup is essential. To minimize your risk, I would use an archive and install:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
    In that way, you will have a fresh copy of OS X and your current settings will be preserved.
    Incidentally, I do not agree that the printer problem is best solved by reinstalling OS X. I have had HP printers for sometime and, on one occasion, had difficulty after an upgrade. HP technical support walked me through uninstalling all traces of the HP driver and then reinstalling.
