Garbled audio after compression

I'm fairly new to Final Cut Studio, so forgive my ignorance if the answer to this problem is obvious. When I send a project to Compressor for Quicktime formatting, the final product audio sounds garbled. AC3 dolby codec sounds fine, but Quicktime files are a mess. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Garbled Audio After Lion Upgrade

I've scanned the forums, but the only audio bug I can find seems related, but not identical to mine. I just installed OS X Lion on my Mac Pro (2x2.66 GHz Dual-Score Zeon with 4GB Ram). Now all of a suddenly all my audio sounds garbled, almost inverted. Some musical elements are strong, but human voice is indecipherable. This is completely strange.
I've tried messing with preferences, and the Audio MIDI Setup like some others have suggested, but to no avail.
Help!
Sno

I also have popping/clicking in many forms of sound/video after Lion upgrade. iMac 2.66GHz Core 2 duo, 6g ram
Putting the computer to sleep and waking it works for a time, but it eventually returns.
A quicker fix which likely does the same thing is to send a kill -9 signal in Terminal.app to the "coreaudiod" process and force it to restart.
nestor:~ fbhjr$ ps aux | grep coreaudio _coreaudiod 60080 1.0 0.1 2453812 6436 ?? Ss 11:32AM 0:06.78 /usr/sbin/coreaudiod
nestor:~ fbhjr$ sudo kill -9 60080

Space left on DVD after compression

Workflow:
1.Edit project in FCP7
2. Export to Quicktime (not self contained)
3. Use Bit Budget to create compression settings, maxed out at average 6.8, maximum 7.8
4. Drag to compressor, change settings to match above, 7.8 changes to 8
5. After compression build in DVDSP, burn in Toast
6. Toast says there is 1.2 Gb left on DVD.
Question: Why wouldn't there be less compression? The video looks ok, but with 1.2 gb left on the DVD seems there could be less compression for a better looking DVD.
Thanks in advance for all tips and help.

As hanumang said there are limits as to rates. If your movie is one minute long, there will be a ton of room left
http://dvdstepbystep.com/faqs_3.php
The maximum rate that a DVD should output is 10.08 Mbps (Page 43 DVD SP 4.1.2 Pdf Manual) Of the 10.08, the maximum rate for the video stream is 9.8 Mbps. Video, audio and subtitle streams count to the max Mbps of 10.08 (Page 44 Pdf ) Note that some players do not handle the theoretical rates (meaning the rates they are suppossed to be able to handle) well, more so on discs burned from your computer. This rate is not related to how long or short a track is, it relates to how much data is being put out by the DVD.

QT 7.6.9 for Windows still gives garbled audio when playing SMIL movies

I have smil movies with captions but on Windows, they play with garbled audio. I was hoping version 7.6.9 would solve this issue, but it's still occurring. Is this being addressed at all? Note that when the movie plays on its own without using the SMIL text track it plays just fine, so it's not the movie.
I've embedded one in a web page so you can see:
http://www.personal.psu.edu/pzb4/smil.html
This works fine on a Mac, but I get garbled audio on Windows. I get similar results just playing it in the QT player on windows outside the browser.

There's no webpage showing up. The file trys to play but real erratic, so much so the mouse pointer was jumping back and forth between dual monitors and then locking up the computer. After letting it run it's course then and saving the file it showed as 4 KB? I could do nothing with it, I recall Kirk one time saying something about saving as a reference file and when done does not come thru in a website...? Also when saved it's showing as Quick Draw format?

Drops conversation and all you hear is garbled audio

During conversations, the voice is lost and all that is heard is garbled audio, not resembling a voice at all. Sometimes your voice echoes back at you, the. The call is dropped. Sometimes when you are trying to make a call, it will display "calling..." and no connection is made, when you push end and return to the home screen, the green bar displays "touch to return to call" The only way to get out of that loop is to power of the phone.
Anyone else with this problem?

Here's the fix...Go to your nearest Apple store. Have them run a diagnostic. I went to Bridge St. today and Austin found, after the diagnostic, that my reception module was defective and that there were some program issues. He replaced the module and tweaked the programming (?) and, knock wood, so far so good. This did require backing up the phone to iCloud, because a factory reset is necessary. This issue has nothing to do with the micro cell tower or turning off your cellular data. It is a free fix, if your phone is under warranty (mine is 20 days old). Hope this helps someone else get rid of the "Alien Voices" =)

P775-S7160 Phantom Garbled Audio

I'm running Windows 7 - 64
With Internet cable installed / network active I get garbled audio (sounds like maybe bad sample rate conversion?) even when browser is not active (!)
After disconnecting from the internet for a few seconds the sound goes away
When subsequently reconnecting to internet the sound eventually returns ( in a few minutes )
This just started a few days ago - did a virus scan and came up clean

A few things can cause this, usually it's a driver issue but this sounds like maybe the driver is crashing and reloading. Could be another app is calling the driver. It's really hard to tell.
A few things to try is making sure no other apps or widgets are running especially ones that use core audio. Also make sure your hard drive isn't going to sleep, this could be happening when you take your break. Also try recording to a external drive this way it won't be affected by the main drive other activity's.

Audio sounds compressed, hollow, and tinny coming out of my computer

Hi everyone -
I'm having an audio issue when playing files in iTunes 8.1.1 (10) and Quicktime Pro 7.6 (472) . I'm using ia Dual 2.7 Ghz PowerPC G5 running OS X Version 10.4.11.
Recently I discovered that all of my audio files (music and spoken word podcasts) started sounding compressed, hollow, and tinny, both when I'm playing the files out of my speakers (Harman Kardon Soundsticks) or headphones (Sony MDR-7606).
At first I posted this message over on the iTunes forum, but after playing the files in Quicktime I discovered that they still sounded compressed. The majority of my audio files are ripped from my CD collection using 256 kbps, 44.100 kHz, VBR, optimized for Velocity Engine.
I don't think it's an issue with the files themselves - they sound normal when I play them using the same version of iTunes or Quicktime on my MacBook Pro running OS X 10.5.6, which makes me think it's a software issue with OS X, or perhaps a hardware issue - but I'm totally at a loss as to what would cause this change in audio quality.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Dan

Thank you so much for this info! I have been trying to figure this out for months... Been driving me crazy why the audio sounded compressed and hollow when listening to it from within iTunes. Listening to 'previews' of the same audio files from the desktop sounded WAY better - now they both sound the same.
Thanks again!

"get all new data request by request" after compressing source Cube

Hi
I need to transfer data from one Infocube to another and use the Delta request by request.
I have tried this when data on Source Infocube was not compressed and it worked.
Afterwards some requests were compressed and after that the delta request by request is transfering all the information to target Infocube in only one request.
Do you know if this a normal behavior?
Thanks in advance

Hi
The objective of compression is it will delete all the request in your F table and moves data to E table.after compression you don't have request by request by data.
This is the reason you are getting all the data in single request.
Get data request by request works, if you don't compress the data in your Cube.
If you want to know about compression, check the below one

Bad reporting performance after compressing infocubes

Hi,
as I learned, we should compress requests in our infocubes. And since we're using Oracle 9.2.0.7 as database, we can use partitioning on the E-facttable to still increase reporting performance. So far all theory...
After getting complaints about worse reporting performance we tested this theory. I created four InfoCubes (same datamodel):
A - no compression
B - compression, but no partitioning
C - compression, one partition for each year
D - compression, one partition for each month
After loading 135 requests and compressing the cubes, we get this amount of data:
15.6 million records in each cube
Cube A: 135 partitions (one per request)
Cube B: 1 partition
Cube C: 8 partitions
Cube D: 62 partitions
Now I copied one query on each cube and with this I tested the performance (transaction rsrt, without aggregates and cache, comparing the database time QTIMEDB and DMTDBBASIC). In the query I selected always one month, some hierarchy nodes and one branch.
With this selection on each cube, I expected that cube D would be fastest, since we only have one (small) partition with relevant data. But reality shows some different picture:
Cube A is fastest with an avg. time of 8.15, followed by cube B (8.75, +8%), cube C (10.14, +24%) and finally cube D (26.75, +228%).
Does anyone have an idea what's going wrong? Are there same db-parameters to "activate" the partitioning for the optimizer? Or do we have to do some other customizing?
Thanks for your replies,
Knut

Hi Björn,
thanks for your hints.
1. after compressing the cubes I refreshed the statistics in the infocube administration.
2. cube C ist partitioned using 0CALMONTH, cube D ist partitioned using 0FISCPER.
3. here we are: alle queries are filtered using 0FISCPER. Therefor I could increase the performance on cube C, but still not on D. I will change the query on cube C and do a retest at the end of this week.
4. loaded data is joined from 10 months. The records are nearly equally distributed over this 10 months.
5. partitioning was done for the period 01.2005 - 14.2009 (01.2005 - 12.2009 on cube C). So I have 5 years - 8 partitions on cube C are the result of a slight miscalculation on my side: 5 years + 1 partion before + 1 partition after => I set max. no. of partitions on 7, not thinking of BI, which always adds one partition for the data after the requested period... So each partition on cube C does not contain one full year but something about 8 months.
6. since I tested the cubes one after another without much time between, the system load should be nearly the same (on top: it was a friday afternoon...). Our BI is clustered with several other SAP installations on a big unix server, so I cannot see the overall system load. But I did several runs with each query and the mentioned times are average times over all runs - and the average shows the same picture as the single runs (cube A is always fastest, cube D always the worst).
Any further ideas?
Greets,
Knut

I have similar problem, my apple tv which has always worked properly with my Samsung tv will no longer play any audio after the latest 5.1 upgrade. Very frustrating as it was working perfectly before. I am starting to not trust apple upgrades until proven for example ios6 on iPhone with that stupid map app instead of google maps.
I just want to buy and hear my iTunes music and videos on my apple tv, could before cant now. Thank you apple. Time to pack up the apple tv and start torrenting without the ios-bs.
Disheartened apple fan.

Welcome to the  discussion forums.
Try going to synching in the sources menu on your tv and selecting 'change itunes library', when it gives you the passcode check itunes to see if the tv is showing up as a new device, if so try entering the pass code. It may be that your tv is seeing itunes as a different library because of a recent upgrade.

How to delete the duplicate requests in a cube after compression.

Hi experts,
1. How to delete the duplicate requests in a cube after compression.?
2. How to show a charaterstics and a keyfigure side by side in a bex query output?
Regards,
Nishuv.

Hi,
You cannot delete the request as its compressed as all the data would have been moved to E table ..
If you have the double records you may use the selective deletion .
Check this thread ..

Incorrect results after compressing a non-cumulative InfoCube

Hi Gurus,
In BI 7.0 After compressing the non cumulative InfoCube its showing the incorrect reference points .leis_03_bf (pintail stock moments) showing as the reference points(opening Balance) after compressing as no marker update. Due to this its showing in correct result in reporting.please suggest me .
Thanks
Naveen

Hi Nirajan,
First of all as I undestood 2LIS_03_BX is the initial upload of stocks, so there is no need of delta load for this datasource, it collects data from MARC, and MARD tables when running the stock setup in R3 and you ahve to load it just one time.
If between delta loads of 2LIS_03_BF you're loading full updates you are dupplicating material movements data, the idea of compression with marker update is that this movements affects to the stock value in the query, it's because of that when you load the delta init you do it without marker update because these movements are contained in the opening stock loaded with 2LIS_03_BX so you dont want to affect the stock calculation.
You can refer to the How to handle Inventory management scenarios in BW for more detail on the topic.
I hope this helps,
Regards,
Carlos.

Sony DCR SX65 has no audio after import

My iMovie app on my Mac Mini has lately not been loading audio after videos have been imported from my Sony DCR SX65. This is something recent as I have previous videos with sound but now it all my uploads do not have sound.

hey there William & welcome to Discussions.
is the VHS tape old or the MiniDV tape? if VHS, it could be that the signal has just deteriorated over time--it can happen w/ poor storage(heat, laying tapes on flat, not re-wound, etc...) & just age. have you tried not recording to MiniDV & just sending the VHS signals through the Sony w/ out a tape in it? it could be that one or more of you audio cables has gone bad, you may have dirty heads in either the VHS VCR &/or the MiniDV or have audio in problems w/ the Sony &/or audio out problems on the VHS VCR or maybe you have a FW issue on the Sony or w/ your FW cable. if you have access to another cam &/or VCR as well as FW & A-V cables, start swapping/troubleshooting & see if your results improve.
good luck.
