Help using multiple audio channels for one video

Hi,
I have a video file with 3 audio files (stereo (.wav), 5.1 surround (.AC3), and commentary (.wav).
I have placed these on the time line of the video track, but now I need to have buttons to target each of them from a menu. However, when is choose a buttons target, is doesn't give me the option of which audio channel to play (A1/A2/A3 etc).
Is this possible with just one track, or do I need 3 (each with a different audio file as A1)?
Hope you can help! cheers.
Tim

There is a tutorial on setting this up here;

BTW I would very strongly suggest to compress your WAV files to stereo AC3 files. It will reduce your overall bandwidth, and you will have a disc that will less problems in playing.

Multiple audio files for one flash video

My company is developing a presentation software program that
is flashed-based. We are developing a series of videos that will be
converted to flash video. We will also be recording multiple audio
tracks for different languages that we want to swap out and sync to
the video (like the different audio language tracks on a DVD). Does
anyone know if you can encode the video and audio to seperate
tracks and then swap out the audio with another and still synch it
to the video?
We want to try and avoid encoding video for all the language
tracks to save space. If we could have one video file and then
multiple audio files that can be synched with the video file,
rather than having to encode video and audio for each language,
this would save a lot of room. Can anyone think of a way we could
accomplish this using flash and flash video?

nope, Keynote doesn't have "triggers" though I figure this has to be on Apple's radar as it's been brought up every time a new version comes out.
I suppose one work around would be to make a slide for each sound, and have the sound play when you go to that slide. Then make your table a series of buttons that go to each "sound slide" (you can make link buttons, just not triggers). It would give you the effect of clicking to play the sound, it's just that instead, Keynote would be jumping to a slide and playing a sound. All the slides would LOOK the same, and you wouldn't use transitions between them. The effect would get you what you want, it just takes longer to build.

Export MXF with multiple audio channels for broadcast

Hi,
I work at a broadcast company as an editor. We always used FCP with the free sony xdcam plugin to export. This plugin seems to be one of the rare ways to export an MXF with 4 audio channels. I don't know exactly why we need to export it for broadcasting with 4 audio channels, but we do.
Since our workload has grown enormously the last few months and it will only become more we are optimizing our workflow. We also work with a lot of different endboards in After Effects and we made a nice template to work with. And since AE and Premiere can make a dynamic link we are considering changing from FCP to Premiere.
Now comes the question!: The only obstacle we could not find an answer to is exporting it with 4 audio channels as an MXF from Premiere CS5. Will there be some development on this level regarding CS6?
A solution to this should save us a lot of time!
Any help will be highly appreciated!
I also attached an example for the usual MXF files we export

I have the same problem. I have a project with multiple audio channels and I want to export them as individual channels in a MXF-file.
Method:
When I created a new sequence I choose "Multichannel" from the "Tracks" page. When I export the MXF OP1a, I choose 8 channels from the "Audio" page. None of the channels are muted.
Result:
The rendered file contains 8 channels, but only the first two channels contains any audio (main left + right), the rest of the channels are empty. Channel 1 and 2 contains the audio from all channels, but I want the channels to be seperated in the same way as they are layered in Premiere.
I don't understand your answer to wleoni75's question. Could you please help me further?

Multiple tiling effect for one video ?

Hi, I'm making a music video & one of the shots calls for a tiling effect for one video of a person singing. The tiles should multiply from 1 to many more (64 or so) See image:
Just curious if there is an effect that can do this simply, as I don't have time to make 64 tracks and place each one
Thanks!

Jim,
Though I have not used it, there is a "Grid Effect" in PrPro. Wonder if that might help?
Will explore, and report.

How do I sync multiple audio clips to one video clip?

I have video (with stereo audio from a camera mic), and for each take, there are also four additional mono audio tracks that line up with it. It was footage shot outdoors in the city, so I guess the filmmakers just wanted to have as many options for sound mixing as possible given how much background noise there would be. I have tried selecting the video clip and the four audio clips at once and selecting "synchronize clips," but it doesn't work. It spits out a synchronized clip that seems to have converted two of the mono tracks into one stereo track... and then disregarded the remaining two mono tracks. It's a mess. It's likely someone else will fine tune the audio once I'm done cutting the video together... but I'd like to get all the audio tracks properly synced from the start. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Do you mean manual syncing? I've been reading this thread about workaround, which aren't working for me: http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/344/21236
But the question they are asking is the same one I am asking. Isn't this a typical situation, having multiple mics for one camera? For example, if someone filmed a concert with one camera but used both the camera audio, and ambient mic, and a mix from the board, then that would be 3 audio tracks with 1 video track. I'm in a similar situation, and I'm finding it hard to believe that FCPX isn't equipped to edit this way. There must be some way to get one video clip (with reference audio) to sync with four audio tracks.

HT5958 Audio prevents relinking to original media -- can I manually change the number of audio channels for a video clip?

I recently updated to Final Cut X 10.1. I had a project for which I was heavily editing the audio, so I was using the "detach audio" feature and in some cases deleting the audio track. Now, when I try to go into the timeline and relink the movie files (which weren't linked automatically after update), the original media won't relink because "the original file didn't have audio, but the new file does."
Is there anyway to edit the misreferenced file so it beleives it has an audio track?
Thank you for any and all suggestions. I really don't want to start this edit over from scratch.

Thanks for the responses, guys. I guess I wasn't really all that clear. Something to do with FCP 6 and the Kona III card is telling FCP to set up each project with 16 channels of audio - and ONLY 16 channels of audio. Anywhere that there is a drop-down or check box, the drop-down or check box is either grayed out or only provides choices centered around 16 channels of audio. So, for example, let's say I go to the "Capture Presets" tab under "Audio/Video Settings" and click on "Edit" to modify the current preset. Under "QuickTime Audio Settings," I select "AJA Kona" as my device. Then, under the "Format" drop-down, I have four possible audio formats to choose from - ALL of them showing 16 channels (e.g. - "48.000 khz 24-bit 16-channel"). Nowhere is there an option of selecting, say "48.000 khz 24-bit 2-channel." Everything under every tab specifies 16-channel. So, as a result, I can't tell it to disable the fourteen tracks that I'll NEVER use. I even tried starting with the "Generic" settings tab, used to create your own presets, and even that would ONLY allow me 16-channels - and I couldn't over-ride it!
So far, the only way I've found to work around this is to manually go in and turn off the little green nodes indicating which audio track(s) you don't want to capture. The problem is, every time I have to do this, I'm manually turning of FOURTEEN audio channels.
Hope this helps clarify...

Multiple audio streams for 1 video track

Hi I have a few different sountracks I want to use with one video asset.
I want to avoid duplicating the video track and putting a version of the audio in it.
If I have an Audio tab in my menus with music and lyrics, one with instrumental only and a dolby 5.1 surrond
how do i target the buttons to choose different audio as i click on the 5.1 let's say, it will choose to play stream #3 5.1 surrond.
Been looking in the manual but could't find anything.
Any help is appreciated
thanx
jm

Sorry about the links -:(
Anyway follow these steps and it should work (one approach, not difficult to do, I just wrote the steps in small bites )
Press F3 Key so we are looking at the same layout in DVD SP
1.) Make a menu with two buttons, label them Audio A and Audio B
2.) Make a Track (the "TRACK")
3.) Place your video on the video portion of the TRACK
4.) Place your Audio A on A1 track and Audio B on the A2 track
5.) Drop a chapter marker at the end of the TRACK (one should be at the begininng of the track by default)
6.) Click Add Story from the top Bar for the TRACK
7.) Name that story Story A, add the first Chapter Marker to the Story
8.) In inspector for Story A deselect/remove check marks for all audio except for 1 (uncheck 2-7)
9.) Duplicate Story A as Story B
10.) In inspector for Story B deselect/remove check marks for all audio except for 2 (uncheck 1, 3-7)
11.) Set Button 1 from menu to Story A, Button 2 story B
Note that this method will not allow toggling between the audio. A quick way to permit toggling is to do as above, but have both Audios (1 & 2) checked in steps 8 & 10
Create a script called PRESTORYA and set it as a prescript for Story B, with the following:
Set System Stream AU(Audio Stream 1)
Create a script called PRESTORYB and set it as a prescript for Story B, with the following:
Set System Stream AU(Audio Stream 2)
FWIW the links worked just now (downloads a zip file directly to HD, take a look in activity window in Safari, maybe there for you?)

Export multiple audio channel in same video file in premier pro

OK I have tried a lot and searched the net a lot a lot a lot, but unfortunately I didnt reach anywhere.
What I am trying to do here basically is that I have all my footage setup in premiere. In my Audio section I have included 4audio tracks (each for a specific language). How do I export this video so that 4 tracks are available, you know like tetra audio for a dvd.
I'm asked to do this in avi format, does the format matter or it has nothing to do with it.
Please save me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

4 different exports, one for each language.
AVI is a container, not a specific format.

I need help with multiple text masks on one video.

Hi,
I am trying to get three different text masks to appear at different times on the same video. I seem to only be able to have one of the three words applied to the video at a time. For example when I copy paste another set of masks onto the video it deletes the last ones. What am I doing wrong? How can I make this work?
Thanks for any response!

It's pretty confusing, rto say the least. Masks would only be replaced, if the current masks are selected, which is totally intentional behavior. that aside, you workflow is clunky, to say the least. Simply duplicate the layer, trim the results as needed, apply the masks and animate the layer's opacity. Takes half the time than fiddling with animating mask opacity or otehr such things.

How do you link two audio clips to one video clip?

Hi guys,
I want to think multiple audio clips to one video clip and aint know how to do it! I found this page on Adobe knowledge base:-
http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/PremierePro/3.0/help.html?content=WS1c9bc5c2e465a58a91cf0b 1038518aef7-7f40.html
It says you can do it but I don't think it explains how? Can anyone provide me with the simple steps required to link two audio clips to one video clip? Many thanks.

How to use multiple VCI strings for lap 1300 and 1200 (option 60) in one pool?

Hi All,
Hope to you a very happy new year,
I have two differnt LAP 1300 and 1200 in my network and I need to add theme to the WLC,

So my quetion is below:
How to use multiple VCI strings for lap 1300 and 1200 (option 60) in one pool?
Thanks in Advanced,
Ahmed,

To add to Scott's post. Option 60 would be useful if you needed to put certain types of AP on specific controllers. Otherwise, no real need to use it for the most part.
Though, I do recall an issue a few years ago that some windows machines had issues getting DHCP if option 43 is being returned.
Now, on an IOS switch, you can only configure one option 60 per DHCP scope

2 Audio tracks on one video?

Hello,
I have two videos that are the close to the same...and are pretty close in length.
One of the AUDIOS i want to use for practice and the other for the Actual process.
So what i would like to do is set it up so either video can have BOTH audios.
People will be watching them many times so to keep them from getting board
with having one audio for one video. I want them to be able to change the audio.
So when watching one of the videos for a week with the practice audio
the can then watch the video next week with the Actual process
and visa versa for the other video.
I know there is a way to add subtitles or a different language to a video.
But these will be only 2 videos of 7 total in the DVD.
Is there a way to do this? if so could someone please explain or direct me to a video or tutorial
on how i might do this?
Thanks so Much!
Soshman

Here's one way:
The 5 videos with one audio will just be regular timelines. Lets call the two other videos with the 2 audios V1 and V2. And the two audios A1 and A2.
So you want one timeline with V1, and in Audio track 1 you will have A1, and in Audio track 2 you will haveA2. In another timeline with V2, you will have in Audio track 1 A2, and in Audio track 2 you will have A1.
You will have a menu that will select the audio track. See help:
