HELP! : No "Export Audio To Movie" option

Hi
I've just finished a sync project and need to 'export' to movie. When I go to the file menu or right click on the movie track, the "Export Audio to Movie" function is not there.
PLEASE can anybody help. I have to deliver the pitch tonight. I'm running 9.1.3 64bit.
Many thanks
Jules

Mike is right. The reason why Logic9 doesn't have the Export Audio To Movie feature is the current state of Quicktime. Remember that the basic video capabilities of Logic are not written into the Logic code but outsourced to the Quicktime components in OSX (Don't invent the wheel twice). Based on a statement by Steve Jobs, the new Final Cut version should arrive in 2011 and you might think it will be 64bit, dragging QuickTime along with it, followed by a quick Logic update - maybe.
If this helps, here is my current workaround:
I work in 64bit with a separate project file for each music cue on a video based project. When I'm done, I bounce the audio.
Now I have also one master project, that also uses the current video and has the exact (important) sync settings. I use that project to import each previously bounced audio cue. If your sync settings are the same with all the individual projects and the master projects then you can import one or many audio files and with one command "Move to original recording position" all the audio files line up perfectly in sync.
_The advantages of that master project_:
1) You run that project in 32bit mode and therefore are able to use "Export audio to movie"
2) You can make rough mixes of your video (audio against dialog) for approvals or your own reference. Having these little videos with you at the dubbing stage can take prove very easy if the music editor messed up your cue.
3) You can export videos of individual cues, sections or the whole video (at least reels, if the movie is broken down in separate reels)
4) Easy handling/mixing of separate cues that overlap
5) Quick comparison of different versions of a cue which of course are all imported into the master project6)- Quick timing references for Cue Sheet preperation
7) In case of a picture edit, this the master project is also an amazing tool to figure out how messed up your music will be with the new picture cut. Im

"Export audio to movie" produces an all-white video or other problematic issue. Help.

The latest Logic X update seems to have broken the "export audio to movie" function. I need to re-import the movie file every time I want to export audio to movie or it results in an all-white video or a video that hangs up on a single frame. Does anyone know a good work-around or fix? I'm generally using video that is compressed in H264. I also need to deliver at that same codec. Not having to convert the original movie to a new format and then convert the version with music back to H264 again would be ideal.

Now Logic's gone racist, jeeze... what next?
Dang Clancy..... Now I have spilt coffee all over the floor!

Export Audio to Movie - where is that function in Logic 9?

I have noticed that a very useful function in my Logic Pro 8 (version 8.0.2) options/movie/export audio to movie is not found in the Logic 9 version. One of my friends has this version (and an Intel Mac) but I cannot help him working with music and video - I cannot find it anywhere in the Logic 9 menus. Can you help?
Best, Peter Danstrup

I just opened a quicktime movie. Added an audio track, and am looking for the option indicated in the manual: "Choose File > Export Audio to Movie". Upstream it's indicated that this option only appears if a movie is present. My movie is present, but still this option does not appear?
Ideas?

Exporting Audio to Movie, doesn;t export the audio

When I try Option>Movie>Export Audio to movie It rendereds but doesn't actully put the music into the video. Worked in 7.1 doesn;t work in 7.2.1 any plans on fixing this?

Indeed, thats what I do, but the time saving and
simiplicity of the 'Export audio to movie..."
function puts it at the top of the 'features that
really should work' for us composers to picture!
Hopefully it will be fixed soon with an update.
It's not broken. To be sure I went and tried it myself
and it worked fine. I did not even have to set the
locators, which I thought I would have to. I just dropped
the movie on a project and went to the menu. It did bring
up some dialog box I had not seen before. Something about
adding the tracks to use. It only showed track 1 but since I
could not figure out how to add the tracks I just hit OK and
it rendered all of them. Hope you get yours back up.

Logic8 will not let me Export Audio to Movie

So...I have had another weird one.
Normally (in LP7) when I am working with a movie file that has audio attached to it and I want to Export Audio to Movie, Logic brings up a screen before it bounces which shows me what audio is currently attached to the movie and gives me the option to exclude or include that audio in the bounce. Since going 8 that window does not show up. Ever. Logic mixes what I want to bounce with what is already on the movie.
Anyone else having this problem?

I've solved my problem!
First I tried to export audio to a "Apple Motion JPEG A, 768 x 576, 16,7 Mill." Movie - that doesn't work! After converting the reels to "H.264 Decoder, 720 x 480 (853 x 480), 16,7 Mill." - exporting works as before :o))
Try it...

How do I export audio to movie without original music

When I export audio to movie and I open the new quicktime file there is music I didn't write as well as my own music. In the manual, after I choose the desired format options for the bounced audio file, and I enter a name and target folder for the movie a dialog is supposed to appear allowing me to choose which of the original audio tracks should be included in the new movie. That dialog box doesn't appear on my computer.

Try this.
Bounce out your music from logic.
Import Quicktime movie into the old i-movie (haven't tried the new one yet.) from here, you can extract the original audio.
Import your new music into i-movie, and lay it against the picture.
Export your new movie.

Can't export audio to movie

Hi
I am trying to add music to some video footage taken with a digital camera. I was unable to extract the audio from the footage onto my arrange window using import audio from movie. I received a message saying "no active extrac
table audio to be found" (though there is audio in the footage). Then when I exported audio to movie I found that the movie was unchanged, the soundtrack I had created did not play and the original audio remained as well.
Any help would be appreciated.

H,thanks for the advice, I'll try it out tonight. Yeah I bought quick time pro especially to work with film in logic. I am soon to start working on a project with a film student friend of mine. I was literally tearing my hair out for two days figuring I had done something wrong and it turns out that this problem seems to be part of an apple conspiracy to hush up this flaw. That and the fact apple seem barely contactable when there is an issue with one of their problems only adds to the frustration. I expected more I have to say.

Export Audio to Movie

Hi I'm using Logic 9 on a G5 IMac 10.7.4 2.5 GHZ Intel Core i5 Lion.
I'm trying to Export a new audio file that I've recorded to a movie file which is VTS_01_1.dv. (replace the old audio). The old file is VTS_01_1.aif.
That's fine I can do that but when I play the video I get both old and new audio files playing.
I went into Video preferences in Logic and muted the soundtrack as well as turned down the volume, but didn't help.
Can anyone off any advice on this.
Thanks.
Rob.

I am trying to export audio to movie. I have done this before but it has been a while so perhaps I am forgetting to do something. I bought a manual at macprovideo, but it only tells me what I already know, no solutions.
When I export audio to movie, the audio does not get attached. I go to 'export audio to movie' click, I try t select sample rate, it is selected, but the window itself is blank. . . well let's try it anyway. . . I hit ok,
I deselect the original audio because I already dragged and edited it in logic. I hit ok, it is done in a couple of seconds so I already know there will be no audio but I check just in case and indeed there is nothing.
Am I leaving something important out?
Please help I am driving myself crazy.
Petra
"I deselect the original audio because I already dragged and edited it in logic. "
Try leaving the audio selected...
Also, where are your selection markers? ie the length markers? These are on the top ruler, and are the left locator, and the right locator. they must select the length of audio to export too. In the Transport, they have bar indicators as to where they are.

Export audio to movie - not compatible mp4 !

Hi, I thought Logic X would solve compatibility issues with movie files but I can't "Export Audio to movie" with this format:
AVC Coding, 1280 x 720
AAC, 48000 Hz, Stereo (L R)
Logic X seems to do it but spits out files about 21KB small.
Anyone noticed this and knows a solution that does not mean converting the mp4 into a different format? This is terrible, I work with different quicktime files every day..
Thanks folks,
Malte

Hi Anton
This is a known bug in Logic on the intel macs. We're all hoping this will be fixed in the next version!
There are a few workarounds...
bounce the audio for your movie. Open it in Quicktime pro. Open the movie in QT pro and you can join the movie and audio with a bit of trial and error.
Easier perhaps, is to use imovie to import the movie and audio separately and then export the movie from there. That's what i normally do.
As i said, it's a workaround - but it's better than nothing!
Hope that helps

Export Audio To Movie, functions differently now.

This used to work fine for me - but now it doesn't, strange.
I have two tracks that I recorded in Logic pro 9.
I went to "File/Open Movie" in Logic - brought in an MPG and lined it up where I wanted it so that it matches the audio.
When I go to "File / Export Audio To Movie", I used to get a screen that allowed me to de-select the audio in the movie, so that the movie audio wouldn't be in the final exported movie.
I DO NOT want the audio from the movie to be in the export.
I have muted the movie audio in Settings / Video / so that it does not play while I roll the tracks in Logic.
I used to be able to deselect the movie audio when "Exporting Audio To Movie" but now I don't get that screen when going through the export process.
Can anyone help?
Thanks, Giovanni5000.

You have to do some basic trouble shooting routine to give a little more info:
1) Use a different movie and see if the export works
if yes then the problem could be your original movie
if no try a a third movie
2) Use a new project and try the basic routing: import movie, import new audio - bounce to Movie
if that works then maybe there is a problem with your project and not with Logic. Back to your project and digg deeper
3) etc ...

'Export audio to movie' not working properly

Hi, when I 'export audio to movie' in Linear PCM format the audio from the original video plays along side the music I have written in Logic X. The audio track from the video is muted apart from where I've used some of the original audio on a new track. How do I get it so that just my music plays along with the video?
Thanks,
Jonny H

Logic pro x export audio to movie

Hi!
I'm running into problems when exporting a quicktime movie from Logic Pro X with a cue. The weird thing is, on my computer, the exported video plays back properly (outside of logic) with the music, and everything is fine and well – but when I send that file to the director, there is no music in it!! On her computer it only has the films SFX track. I saw other threads about trouble actually getting the audio to export, but I think I'm doing that fine.
Here's what I've been doing:
Bounce all music together with the film's audio track, so that ALL the audio is on one track.
Click export audio to movie, select the track.
Am I missing something? This is super weird.
I'm using Logic Pro X, on Yosemite 10.10.1
Thanks in advance!
Mike

First of all, did you listen back to the QUickTIme file after the bounce? Are you saying that you hear you score and when the director plays "the same" quicklime file" she hears only the SFX? That would be strange, unless she opened the quicktime file and messed around in the properties window.
About the Movie export. You don't have to bounce your music fist. Whatever your state is at the moment in your Project that is what you "Export to video". There is only one (often overlooked) step. After you click ok in the Save Dialog, there is one extra "Choose tracks to export" window coming up (see screenshot). It shows you the audio track(s) that are embedded in the original quicktime file. LPX 10.1 now has a new checkbook to make it clear:
Check: You include the original audio track with your mix
Unchecked: You don't include the embedded audio track and only your Logic mix will end up to be the new audio track of the new quicktime file.
Hope that helps
