FMEcmd makes bad files with audio

When I use FME with the GUI to capture video and audio to a
f4v files it works fine. When I save the profile and use the
command line FME I get files I can't play (f.x. in Adobe Media
Player, Media Player Classic).
Any ideas so far?
Frank
PS: I can send more info if necessary

Using FMEcmd /s as Moin Ansari suggests helps. I actually
have this in the script file that starts capturing - just for the
testing I just closed the console window without stopping FME
first.
It is kind of critical so. You can spoil hours of recordings
by a single click. Does FME write data to the beginning of the file
when it is closing it (sorry - I don't know the details of how the
files are constructed)? I would expect the last minutes to be
damaged, but not the whole file.
Can such a damaged/corrupted file be recovered? Is VP6 more
robust?

  • Can't make MPEG-2 with audio via Compressor

    Hi guys, help,
    I'm trying to make a single file MPEG-2 with video AND audio exporting from FCP.
    This file is intented for broadcast television, so i can't end up with 2 seperate audio/video files.
    Every time I select MULTIPLEXED MPEG-1/LAYER 2 AUDIO I get some *.m2t file which I cannot play in anything. Is it possible to just get a simple MPEG-2 file with audio and video?
    Many thanks.

    Are you using Compressor 2 or 3? In v.3 there are 3 MPEG-2 options, listed under Apple/Formats/MPEG-2/
    they are:
    Elementary Stream which is your basic .m2v file, video only, used for DVDs
    Program Stream which is a .mpg file - probably the one you would want
    Transport Stream - .m2t file - what you are getting now.
    I am not familiar enough with the different streams to give you a breakdown of what they all mean, but I have encountered similar issues. The .m2t file will play on systems that recognize the format, unforunately the Mac doesn't seem to recognize it natively (and yet it created it!!) The .mpg is probably what you are looking for but I remember having problems building it in Compressor 2 so you might want to consider the upgrade. Worth it for Compressor alone in our shop!
    Now for my problem, does anyone know how to get a 5.1 mix embedded into the .m2t file??

  • Has anyone been able to upload an ibooks file with audio only files (m4a) in it? I keep getting the following error message during the upload in iTunes Producer: ERROR ITMS-9000: "Files of type audio/x-m4a are not allowed outside of widgets.

    Has anyone been able to upload an ibooks file with audio only files (m4a) in it? I keep getting the following error message during the upload in iTunes Producer: ERROR ITMS-9000: "Files of type audio/x-m4a are not allowed outside of widgets. then it names the file as an m4p file. Everything works beautifully on the iPad through Preview, and validates through iTunes Producer up until the attempted upload. If you've been able to accomplish this, please let me know how you prepared your audio files. Many thanks.

    Hello Fellow iBook Authors!
    Today I received the same error that you all have been discussing.  I tried selecting the DRM
    and this did not work for me, though I'm glad it did for some.  Here's what I did as a work-around. . .
    Since iBooks Author did not have a problem with Videos, I simply used one of my video programs, ScreenFlow to turn the audio into a video file m4v.  I added an image and extended the length or timing of the image to span the length of the audio file.  Then exported as an .mov.  I then opened QuickTime and opened the file and exported the file to iTunes. 
    You can use iMovie, Camtasia or any other progam that will allow you to export the audio as a movie file.  Does this make sense?  I hope this helps, at least in the short-term.

  • Can CDHtmlDialog play swf file with audio component?

    Hello, I'm using CDHtmlDialog in our application to play swf that shows user how to do a workflow. It works fine if swf does NOT have audio; if the swf has audio component, then it does not play.
    Can CDHtmlDialog play swf with audio?
    If not, any suggestion on how to implement playing swf file with audio?
    Many thanks in davance.

    Hi PingHu,
    How do you play the swf file in a html. I tried play a swf file with audio in my CDHtmlDialog class. I just use this:
    Html code Play the SWF file.
    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
    <body>
    <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="200" height="100">

    </object>
    </body>
    </html>
    Then my sample is able to play a SWF file with audio. Hope this helps some.

    Flash files with audio sound garbled or high pitched
    Question
    Flash files played in the the newest version of the Flash
    Player sound garbled or have a high-pitched "chipmunk" sound to
    them.
    Answer
    The latest release of the Flash Player (v9.0.115.0 released
    on 12/03/07)) causes audio to sound garbled and/or high pitched
    like a chipmunk. Our development team is looking into this issue
    and working to find a fix.
    To avoid this problem, you can roll back your Flash Player to
    a previous release. If you have problems installing an older
    release of the Flash Player please review this article and contact
    Adobe for further support.
    At this time, the problem is limited only to SWF files
    produced with the MP3 audio codec. As a workaround, you can produce
    your SWF files with the PCM audio codec or use the FLV format
    instead of SWF.

    Safe versions security restrictions when installing Flash
    Player
    Issue
    If you previously installed a later version of Flash Player
    for Internet Explorer, you may be prevented from installing an
    earlier version. For example, if you installed Flash Player
    9.0.47.0 and attempted to install version 9.0.45.0 the installation
    would fail.
    Reason
    This issue is due to registry key settings applied by the
    Flash Player security model. The restriction is to prevent users
    from downgrading Flash Player minor versions. The minor version of
    Flash Player is the third set of numbers in the version name. For
    example, the minor version for Flash Player 9.0.47.0 would be 47.
    If Flash Player 9.0.47.0 was installed and you attempted to install
    9.0.45.0 (minor version 45), the installation would fail.
    Solution
    To resolve this, download the uninstaller for Flash Player
    from "How to uninstall the Adobe Flash Player plug-in and ActiveX
    control" (TechNote tn_14157).
    Select Start.
    Select Run.
    Type cmd
    In the command window, type the following:
    uninstall_flash_player.exe /clean
    This will remove all entries in the system registry and
    resolve this issue.
    Note: The uninstall_flash_player.exe file must be saved to
    the same directory that the command window is in, for example C:\.

    Hi,
    I doubt it's Safari that's changing the settings:
    Why does this happen?
    Some third-party audio applications may change your computer's audio output setting. In fact, if you use the third-party application again after applying the above solution, the issue might occur again.

  • Mts files cannot imported with audio in pro cc6. how i can import mts files with audio?

    when i am importing mts files in pro cc6. every time it is being imported without audio. though original mts files have audio. how can i import mts files with audio in cc6?

    To clarify Media Browser suggestion - very important that you copy ALL content from SD card to hard drive before importing using Media Browser. If you only have the .mts files alone, there is stuff missing that is needed for Premiere to properly interpret the video/audio.

  • Importing P2 .mxf files with audio into AE CS4

    I hope this isn't the ultimate newbie question but, I have been working with After Effects for a few months but haven't need audio until now. Is there a different process for importing/exporting with audio? I have brought in the P2 video file but I don't think there is audio attached to it. When I export to a QT file, there is definitely no sound? Am I doing something wrong?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Saving a file with audio

    Hi. I'm unable to save a Keynote slideshow that I made with an iTunes song associated with it. I see the "Copy Audio & Movies into Document" in the Save As box, and it's selected but greyed out.
    I need to be able to play this show, with audio, on my notebook.
    Thanks in advance for any help!
    Jim

    purchased songs are only a problem if you give the file to someone else. Your bigger problem is you only get the option to save the audio in the file when you FIRST save it. You could try doing a save as, but if that doesn't work, you might have to start a new file and drag all your slides over to it, and then save it and check the boxes.

  • Exporting MPEG 2 files with audio & video tracks COMBINED?

    I want to post a film on Google Video. I'm told they like MPEG2 files, but with the audio and video combined.
    How can I create an MPEG2 with the video and audio combined?
    I've also been told I can change the .m2v extension to .mpg after I've encoded, without causing problems. Their 'uploader application' doesn't like the .m2v extension.
    Thanks,
    Ben

    Compressor's standard mpeg2 export presets are set up to create separate audio and video files. Changing a m2v extension to mpg does nothing. You still have a file with only video.
    However, deeper in Compressor is the means to create muxed (mixed audio and video) files. Do a search here, it has been discussed a few times.
    Still, why not send them an mpeg4 file?

  • Export video file with audio 5.1?

    I use AC3 filter for Adobe Audition.
    So i can import a video file (wmv) with 6 audio channels and edit multi track.
    But i can't export a wmv file with 6 audio channels.Just 2 channels only.
    Is there any solution to export a video file (wmv) with 6 audio channels?

    You'll have to export as wave and use the free Windows Media Encoder to do this.

  • How to make a dvd with audio track after exporting using media encoder? I have 2 seperate files??

    Hello,
    I need to just burn a video I finished. It's a m2v file and so I have a AC3 audio tack and a video track. I thought I was good to go, but I cannot figure out how to burn the audio and the video to the same disk! This is very annoying as the settings I have to use for export to keep video quality will give me 2 seperate files.
    So, what programs do you use or recommend that allow me to add an audio track? I don't want people to have the option of switching between tracks I just want a normal track like you have when watching a movie, I mean it just plays by default.
    Thanks in adv.
    Mark

    The caveats that I would issue to others are:
    1.) muxed Assets often work fine, but can cause problems. Properly spec'ed. elemental streams seem to never cause problems.
    2.) Encore will allow one to populate a Timeline with multiple Assets. However, it can get very confused in some cases. One is where an Audio Clip is just an Audio Unit, or two, too long, and one has a tiny gap, between their Videos. Using one Timeline per Sequence will always work, so long as the Assets are properly spec'ed.
    I'm not saying that either of these WILL cause problems. Many do similar with zero issues. However, there is the potential for problems. Just use with care.
    Good luck,

  • Raw files WITH audio appear in timeline WITHOUT audio

    I have many files that absolutely HAVE audio appear with none in the timeline. The track itself is there, but the waveform is flat, no sound, and nothing in the source monitor. However, when you "reveal in finder" that particular clip, and play it through VLC, there IS audio.
    My thought is that the metadata associated with the clip is corrupted, be it xmp, cfa, or pek.
    I have run into this problem several times now. As far as I know, there is no easy way to have premiere to"redo" the audio conforming. Short of mucking around manually to find and delete all the metadata associated with that clip, I don't konw what to do. And I feel like even that doesn't always work...
    For this particular project, I am collaborating remotely with another editor, so I completely understand the problem - the project files not routing to the same metadata or soemthing. That said, I did try to "reload" the footage and point premiere back to the original on my machine, but it still comes in with no audio in the timeline. I think it even tried to conform, but it clearly didn't do anything. Premiere thinks there's no audio at all.
    Anyone have any ideas?

    Any advice as to how to do that most efficiently? "Clean cache database" in the media preferences doesn't equate to "delete all cache." Its cleaning the cache for old projects or something, right?
    And it is extremely difficult to manually delete these files, since many of the clip across many different projects stored in the cache folder share the same name, so the pek and cfa files are basically the same names too. no way to know which is which, save for painstaking attention to each file's modification date.
    does it have anything to do with the XMP files too? Or is it just the pef and cfa? Which is the culprit here?
    Thanks for your help, Jim.

  • Imported dvd into premiere pro 2014 as a linked file with audio and video but audio from previous editing file is playing with video

    I am editing in premiere pro 2014 on a windows 8.1 system with 12 mega byes of ram.  I imported a dvd into premiere from a .f4v that was
    burned using freemakevideo converter.
    I imported the DVD into premiere and the audio that is playing is from an previous project I edited with the program, as oppose
    to, the audio that is linked with the video imported.
    Do you know why this is?  I cleaned my media cache and I rebooted my machine.  
    Please help

    Without knowing the specs of your videos it is hard to say. I'm also running a Mac and am having no such issues.
    My first thought is that you have something from a 3rd party installed that is causing conflicts. If all else fails try transcoding your mp4 files to a frame based codec using the Adobe Media Encoder. Pick one of the Apple production codecs or Jpeg compressed QuickTime.
    Are you running a ram preview? Did you render your Premiere timeline? Are you new to AE?
