Geting audio sample rate error, help

Hey all, been doing a massive project where I ma bring in tons of old 8 mm tapes, hi8 and digital 8. This one tape I brought on though however is giving me grief. I keep getting this error:
The audio sample rate of one or more of your captured media files does not match the sample rate on your source tape. This may cause the video and audio of these files to be out of sync. Make sure the audio sample rate of your capture preset matches the sample rate of your tape.
If find this odd though cause the tape should be standard, NTSC dv 48 K. Any suggestions. Also how do I reset my final cut so that when I plug in a camera it always reads it as what it recognizes. I ask this because I had to used the setting uncontrollable device because on the original old 8mm tapes there is no time code so I had to capture that way.
Anyhow, any suggestions on this would be great for if I recapture. Cause I could line it up by eye but want to find the problem so I know for the future. Thank you.

This is a recent problem that seems related to a recent upgrade of QuickTime. Here's why.
In the last month, a rash of these posts have begun to appear:
"DV Capture Audio problem"
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6708693&#6708693
"audio/video"
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6591262&#6591262
Plus this thread, plus my own.
In my case, nothing changed in my operating system or Final Cut Pro version. I upgraded to QuickTime 7.1.6, and the problem began. I have upgraded all the way to 7.4 to no avail. When I attempt to import a DV clip using the same Sony DVCAM deck that imported the same clip in December, I get the error every time. Nothing has changed in the tape, the deck, the Project or Final Cut. I am simply unable to import DV video. I can import other kinds (Panasonic P2, for example), but DV is a no go. I cannot get rid of this error.

  • Audio Sampling Rate Error?

    Hello,
    I am mable to create a .dv of an iMovie in Quicktime, but when I try to export it as a .wmv (something I've done before) I get an error that my file contains different audio sampling rates and then aborts. Any ideas of how/where to fix these rates? (all I am using is audio from original .dv film (16 bit) and a jingle from the sound effects library.) Any help is appreciated!

  • Cannot export as WMV - Inconsistent Audio Sample Rate error

    Hello,
    I am getting an error message when I try to export a sequence using quicktime conversion to a WMV. "Inconsistent Audio Sample Rate - The media you are exporting contains audio with multiple sample rates".
    I used Soundtrack Pro for the first time- to analysis and fix an audio file with pops. It worked wonderfully. I don't have much experience with this program and the audio is set to 32-bit stereo with a file ext stp. Not sure how to change this or if I need to.
    I have done some tests and I have no problem exporting as a quicktime. I am using the latest version of flip4mac software. Your help is appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Chris

    Hi Susan,
    Thanks for your quick reply. The link helped alot.
    For others facing this problem, I found this solution.
    1. Export sequence as a Quicktime movie (not conversion) using current settings and make movie self-contained.
    2. Create a new sequence and change the sequence audio setting (under sequence-general) to 44.1 kHz - Dept 16-bit config default
    3. Drag your Quicktime movie into this new sequence.
    4. Export using Quicktime conversion to WMV with these settings for audio.
    5. WMA9 Standard - One pass, CBR at 64kbps, 44.1 khz, Stereo.
    Voila.
    I have struggled with flip4mac from the start. Never had any luck using the 2 pass method which 1'm told is better quality. Tech support at the flip4mac discussion group generated much discussion but no solution. I have settled with single pass quality in order to get the job done.
    Does any remember the days of linear editing when you delivered a master, protection copy and some VHS dubs and you were done? Oh, I'm showing my age. Ha.Ha.
    Cheers,

  • Green & Pink horizontal Lines? and Audio Sample Rate? Help, Please!

    I have just successfully completed one short film. I'm believe I'm doing exactly the same as before but I'm running into problems. Used a Panasonic PV-GS300 camcorder with mini DV. Then a Sony DSR-11 deck. When I capture there are green and pink bars within horizontal lines over the image in the viewer. When I end the capture I get the message 'the audio sample rate of captured media files does not match the sample rate on you source tape. Video and audio out of sync.' The captured film clip audio rate is 48.0 KHz, the audio format is 16-bit integer, the audio is 2 Mono and the tracks are 1V 2A. Any suggestions, help would be greatly appreciated.

    Sorry about that, I'm away from my FC system, so I can't refer to it. You should choose DV-NTSC in Easy Setup as a starting point, then if the audio settings of your footage are different from 48kHz 16-bit, then you can easily change the capture settings to match.

  • Error message stops .wmv creation: "Inconsistent Audio Sample Rate..."

    Just recently when attempting to export a video into the .wmv format, QuickTime Pro 7.2 gives me this alert message, "Inconsistent Audio Sample Rate. The media you are exporting contains audio with multiple sample rates." QuickTime will not compress (export) to .wmv. It will export to .mov. and .m4v.
    This problem is new. For more than a year my weekly video exported to the .wmv format without fail.

  • Capturing issues-audio sample rate & locating timecode break

    I am a first time FCP user.
    I am working on an educational video with hours of DV source tapes.
    The source tapes are from a 2R50MC Cannon mini DV camcorder also used as the deck I am capturing from via firewire. My scratch disk is Maxtor III 500GB external drive hooked up via a firewire (I'm realizing the firewire is years old could that be a problem?)
    In my first capture test I captured 1 minute of tape by setting in and out points and after completeing the capture I received an error message—"The audio sample rate of one or more of your captured media files does not match the sample rate on your source tape. This may cause the video and audio of these media files to be out of sync. Make sure the audio sample rate of your capture preset matches the sample rate of your tape."
    For the past day I have been scouring the user manual, this discussion group and training tapes from Lynda.com and can not resolve this issue. I have determined that the source tape is 12 bit or 32 kHz and yet can not find a way to set up capture preferences to 32 kHz. Is this the problem/resolution? Page 320 of the user manual shows the QuickTime Audio Settings dialog box but I can't find it in FCP or Quicktime. Is this where I make the change to 32kHz?
    After doing the first test, I tried again and ran into a new problem—it stopped capturing with the message: Locating timecode break [press esc to abort]. It never seemed to resume capturing and I pressed escape to abort. If I'm reading FCP time code window correctly I received this time code break message within a section I had already captured previously (with the audio sync warning).
    I have done several capture tests at different points in the tape and on different tapes all with the same results. I've used the capture clip and capture now buttons. I've tested with drop frame turned on and off. Confirmed my setting of: At timecode break "Make New Clip." Confirmed my Easy Setup as DV-NTSC. My capture preset is DV NTSC 48 kHz. I've turned off and on FCP. Restarted my computer. Restarted my computer with the shift key down and ran permissions.
    Any ideas are GREATLY appreciated, T.

    I am concerned about available memory when capturing to my hard drive and the babysitting and extra steps involved considering the amount of tape I want to capture...but it does work that's GREAT!
    This is always a concern, but in your case I think having the camera and external on the same bus was causing your problem. You may have to capture a little and then transfer, rinse and repeat. Just don't try to do too much at once and let your System Drive get too full, you'll run into other problems there. Slow and steady is the pace!
    I shouldn't have stacked my questions since you answered one and Chris answered the other. Don't know how to apply the answered question and who gets the points.
    No problem, just mark it answered and divide up the solved and helpful points as you wish. All in all we really don't care too much about the points, but they do make us feel good! Thanks for your desire to use the forums properly.

  • Mismatching Audio Sample Rates Upon Capture

    I recently bought a cheap MiniDv JVC video camera, and I am having trouble capturing video and audio together in FCP 6.0. The capture seems fine, but when I finish an error pops up which reads: "The Audio Sample rate in your presets does not match the one on your source tape." As a result there is a delay between the video and audio tracks that creates huge amounts of extra work.
    My video camera captures sound in 12-bit format, and from what I understand that usually corresponds to a 32MHz sample rate. I can't find any 32 MHz presets in the Easy Set Ups or other menus, the system seems geared entirely towards 48 MHz sound. I've messed around with some different combinations of settings, but so far to no avail. Any help someone can give me will be much appreciated.

    You might want to duplicate the capture preset for DV/NTSC 48k and change the audio to 32k.
    Then try that.
    But I'd also change the JVC's audio settings to record in 48 while you're waiting. Should be able to do it... cheap or not.

  • Audio Sample Rate Query

    Hi FCE users,
    I am about to start capturing 4 hrs of wedding video. I have a fair bit of experience on FCP but am new to FCE and its variations in functionality.
    When I ran a quick capture test, it warned me on completion that the audio sample rates were different. The video was shot in Hungary and I have no way of contacting the videographer, however I assume that it was recorded in 32khz as when I changed the capture preset to this, no warning message occurred. The DV cam I'm using most helpfully doesn't display a bit rate but given that no warning occurs after capture, I'm happy to go with the 32khz preset.
    Most of the articles posted on the net however state that the 'SEQUENCE PRESETS' as well as the 'Capture Presets' need to be changed. Almost all of it relates to FCP, as opposed to FC Express.
    The equivalent on FCE - 'Sequence Settings' doesn't seem to offer a 32khz option, and the Audio Rate shown in the Browser seems to be fixed to 48khz.
    My question is:
    Does the sequence setting variation matter? - Do I assume that given the scaled down functionality of FCE that it takes care of this automatically OR that 48khz is a fixed audio rate for sequences in FCE and all non 48khz audio clips needs to be rendered prior to output.
    No doubt I will be bringing music from CD's in to the project and sequence also, so your help would be greatly appreciated.
    I don't want to bring in 4 hours worth of footage and then have to recapture!
    Thanks for your help!
    Rich

    Thanks for your swift reply Tom.
    I've just re-reviewed the menus. I can display the 12/16 info on record, but it doesn't offer it as a playback display option. However... I've just recorded more footage into FCE and received no error message with the capture preset on 32 so can I be fairly confident that its 32?
    I've just figured out how to change the sequence format to 32 (it seems to be created by default with capture preset set to 32, wheras I was trying to alter an existing sequence).

  • Core Audio - Sample rate

    I've just got myself a copy of Logic Pro 8 as a complete newbie and have hit a bit of a hurdle within 24 hours of opening the software.
    I was using the software without a problem just tinkering around using a Carillion MIDI interface to play some software instruments. I don't have a mic yet so thought I'd try my bluetooth headset just so I could play with recorded vocals. When I started speaking while Logoc was recording it came up with an error message
    "Core Audio
    Sample Rate 8000 not allowed."
    I then turned off my bluetooth headset and turned bluetooth off on my Mac so I could go back to using the MIDI keyboard but got no sound. I closed Logic and re-opened, selected "Empty Project" withing the "Explore" tab and was again presented with a series of the messages, all reading as per the above error messages but I get 3 with "8000" and one with "73536".
    When I'm playing the keyboard I can see the note I'm playing or the chord in the dialog box at the bottom of the Logic interface screen but again, no sound.
    Any help would be hugely appreciated. Again, I am a COMPLETE Logic novice so please be gentle with me.
    Regards,

    Hi Jounik,
    I went into Audio MIDI Setup and the headset didn’t appear. The keyboard appears as “Midilink” but I couldn’t see where to check the sample rate. I did however use the Test Setup facility and the keyboard was only producing a sound when the key was released.
    I also had a look at: Logic Pro > Preferences > Audio (Devices) but wasn’t really sure what to look for. This is what I was confronted with http://adoseof.co.uk/resources/Picture1.png
    The project sample rate was set to 44.100 KHz
    I like the idea of using the internal mic. I’d tried that before but was getting feedback. Plugging the headphones in seems like a good solution.
    To try and get the keyboard working again I opened a new Empty Project and left the dialog with the default settings as indicated here: http://adoseof.co.uk/resources/Picture2.png
    I’m not sure what you mean by “In the I/O slot of the channel strip open a synth, e.g. ES1”
    I then used the on-screen keyboard and still no sound was coming out.
    Any other ideas?
    I tried the keyboard in garage band and it worked fine so I can only assume it must be something to do with Logic.

  • Why am I getting midi conflict/sample rate errors. GarageBand 10 intel mac

    Why am I getting midi conflict sample rate errors with no connected midi device?

    Ok, I'll answer this myself. It has nothing much to do with midi devices being in conflict with anything. Nothing much to do with midi devices, as such, in fact. What it seems to be is a slow running system, whether it be processor, or hard disk, or whatever. In fact, when I found the cause of the problem, it was easy to solve.
    What I saw a few times throughout this episode, was an inacurate sample rate report, which caused Garageband to run and react slowly, causing stuttering and flutter in audio output, so that noises were produced as the program struggled to handle the data streams it was reading and trying to reproduce and output cohesively. All of that was caused, it seems, by my iMac overworking and getting a bit too hot for comfort, having run all day, and multitasking for a good deal of it. I didn't adjust I/O buffering, or take any of the usual 'advised action' I've read from other users.
    I simply saved my work and shut down the machine for an hour or two. When I restarted the machine, all had returned to normal. The lesson is, it seems to me, is minimise, or, stop other tasks the machine is carrying out. Safari, in particular, seems to be a major drain on resources, so work without it running. Shut down all unecessary programs and tasks, and run Garageband alone, when working in it. Garageband is a much tamer beast when it's left alone to do what you ask of it. It's quite a sensitive little soul. :-)

  • How do I change the audio sample rate from 48kHz to 44.1kHz for Mpeg2

    Hey all,
    I've been searching for a while but haven't found any direct answers in the forums or the user manual so here goes.
    I have to dispatch a file to Bloomberg TV and the file specs they have given me are as follows:
    Video Standard: MPEG-2, MP:ML, 4:2:0
    Frame Rate: PAL 25fps
    Video Size 720 x 405
    Aspect Ratio 16:9
    Audio Standard MPEG-1 Layer 2
    MPEG-2 Program Stream Mux rate 6mbs per second
    Bit Rate Type: CBR
    Video Bit Rate 5.7mbs
    Audio Bit Rate 192kbs
    Audio Sample Rate 44.1Khz
    Interlacing: Upper Field first (why they want interlaced for web streaming is beyond me)
    GOP Structure: IBBP
    I-Frame distance 12
    Now everything above is fine except the audio encoding because even though I have set up a new setting from scratch I cant find anywhere to adjust the audio sample rate. The Inspector tells me the Audio encoder is set to:
    Format: MPEG
    Sample Rate: 48.000kHz
    Channels: 2
    Bits Per Sample: 16
    Anyone Know how or even if I can change these audio settings? The only adjustments I can find are the filters or the transport/program stream option. I have it set to program as specified by Bloomberg.
    Thanks in advance

    The only setting that I could find in compressor that lets your change the bitrate to 44.1 is when you create a new dolby digital setting and then under the inspectors audio tab/Target System button, change the button to Generic AC-3. When done, you can change the Sample Rate to 44.1.
    Hope this helps?

  • DV 16:9 but Only Exports 4:3 WHY? Also Audio Sample Rate Problem

    I'm quite new to Final Cut and have FC 6.01. I use PAL 25fps and a 16:9 SD DV Camcorder with FireWire SONY DV VTR Deck. I have two problems:
    1. When i capture my 16:9 DV footage the Logging Window shows only 4:3 with a distorted image in it. Though I have chosen the easy set up and told Final Cut that im editing Anamorphic 16:9 I also found that FC will only export 4:3. However, during the editing process i see 16:9 in the Browser Preview and Canvas Window.
    2.(Not sure if its related) I get the following message everytime after I capture individual clips or if i press the Escape key during a capture:
    "The audio sample rate of one or more of your captured media files does not match the sample rate on your source tape. This may cause the video and audio of these media files to be out of sync. Make sure the audio sample rate of your captured preset matches the sample rate of your tape"
    Does any one else have this problem?
    Apple, as yet have not given me any answers.

    Danny Boy.. Thanks for your reply and I'll be happy if it is my fault and not FCP's. Actually i made an error in my post. It does indeed display correctly in DVDSP, it's iDVD it does not even when told to display it in 16:9. However, when i used the PAL DVD Anamorphic file preset, iDVD still couldn't display it. To get it working I had to tell Compressor specifically (in the additional settings) to encode 16:9 despite what the presets stated! No matter how one looks at this, this is confusing to say the least! If a preset says 16:9 then one should expect 16:9! Remember, Im using the display window of iDVD to show me the output.
    To detail my steps as hanumang has said, im doing the following:
    1. in FCP I encode to QuickTime Move
    2. Open iDVD & Create a Project
    3. 'Drag' The QT file into the menu
    4. Using iDVD Preview function, Preview the QT file
    5. ITS STILL 4:3
    now, the above was done with QT Conversion which as also set to encode 16:9 and still had the same result.
    Thnaks to you both.

  • Change capture settings to 32k audio sample rate???

    I have a DVCAM tape that my client recorded and the audio sample rate is 32k. I have noticed that the audio seems to get out of sync when I capture it using the 48k NTSC. I also get a warning saying that my source tape's audio sample rate doesn't match the capture settings and that audio could be out of sync. I looked at past posts and it does seem to be the 32k verses 48k.
    My question is how do I change my capture settings to 32k? I see how you do it on the sequence settings, but I can't figure it out on the capture settings.
    Thanks,

    John,
    I recently read a post where there were four likely answers to the problem, yet I was not sure which one was the best solution.
    Why? Because even though the question was marked as answered the person posting the original question didn't mark which individual's answer was the solution.
    Please help future users to find answers more quickly, who knows, you may find yourself in the same situation someday.
