How do I fix audio in an iMovie video?

I'm trying to finalize a video from iMovie, but whenever I finalize it, no matter what media I use, the sound for the video clips in my movie are always off. But on iMovie, the videos and audio work fine. How can I fix this??

It is happening on the timeline and when I burned the DVD it also happened on the DVD. However, I tested to see if it was the camera by linking the camera to the TV and everything was in sync...so it is not the camera.
It is interesting that when I captured the video in one shot, most of the video was out of sync with the background taping sounds.
I may have done a workaround. I have since captured the video in chunks and found that when I do that the alignment of video and all sound are OK except for a couple of sections of the video.
It appears that when captured all at once, the sections that are out of sync, pollute the remaining parts of the video. It sounds strange, but that it all I can come up with as a rationale. Why? I have no idea.

How do I move audio in an Imovie Video?

I'm trying to make an Imove video. I filmed the footage in Photobooth, and then imported it into Imovie. There was a delay of the sound in Photobooth, but I thought it was nothing. So I get to Imovie, and there was a delay once again. I don't know how to get the audio to be heard when I move my mouth. It seems like there is a very simple answer to this problem, yet I can't seem to find it. Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!

(in order as in.. right after the other or right after they
land...)
this is right after the other (with a given time to drop the
next)
if they are all seperate boxes, do something like this:
on the onClipEvent(load), put an order, like drop=1,
drop=2,drop=3
onClipEvent(load)
drop=2
time=0
onClipEvent(enterFrame)
time++
if(time>drop*12) //12 frames before dropping the second
one
**your drop code
if you want them as duplicated, do this:
duplicatedmovie=[the duplicate movieclip code]
duplicatedmovie.drop=1
and in the movieclip that you are duplicating, add this:
onClipEvent(load)
time=0
onClipEvent(enterFrame)
time++
if(time>drop*12) //12 frames before dropping the second
one
**your drop code
basically the same code except that the drop was set in
different areas.
I hope it helps, but I'm not sure if it was what you were
looking for.

How do I route audio from a YouTube video to AU Lab using SoundFlower so that I can capture the YouTube video's sound stream?

How do I route audio from a YouTube video to AU Lab using SoundFlower so that I can capture the YouTube video's sound stream?

Attach camera via USB or put card in card reader.
Go to FCP, and go to the Log and TRANSFER window.
If FCP recognizes the card, you will see your clips listed on the left.
You can view them, set Ins and Outs, and import just what you want.
Once you choose a section of video and import it, FCP converts (transcodes) from its original camera format to Apple ProRes422 - a more edit friendly video file.

HT4437 how can i stream audio to ipad from video playing on the apple tv using air play?

how can i stream audio to ipad from video playing on the apple tv using air play?

I don't know what AppleTV can handle as far as bit rate is concerned, but increase the bit rate as high as it will let you. You are taking DV which is 25Mb/s and compressing it. If you're making an H.264, you should get great results needing no more than 6Mb/s. Bear in mind, the higher the bit rate, the larger the file size.

Can I save audio only from iMovie video...?

Sure.
Choose Share>Export Using QuickTime. Then select Sound to AIFF from the Export dropdown menu.
The resulting will be an audio only AIFF file. The Sound to AU or Wave work in the same way and will create audio files of those file types.

How do I improve audio quality in iMovie?

I have heard that you can strip out the audio track in a video clip, improve it in GarageBand and then put it back into iMovie. Is this true? I'd like to improve the audio quality on a series of video talks.

Publish your movie first by going to Share and then select Media Browser.
After it is "published" open up Garageband.
Click "New Project"
Select "Movie"
Choose a name for your project.
Select your movie from the browser on the right.
Adjust your audio.
When done, you can export your movie with new audio from Garageband

How to normalize the audio channel of a video file?

Hi there
I have 100 quicktime movies.
All I want to do is to normalise the audio in them.
I understood that in the Volume correction I need to select - Equalize Volume Levels.
Is that it?
You can watch the movies without the sound boost in here
Also, How can I save the audio File into the quicktime without rendering the video again.
I don't want the video to be encoded again because the quality is really bad for some reason.
Even If I choose Animation codec which suppose to be good.
Isn't there a way of saving the new audio in the movie without encoding it all again?
Thanks
Guy

You have to convert your videos to a higher resolution: Choose 640x480 (VGA) instead of the standard 320x240 (1/4 VGA): It will look much sharper and it will play also on your iPod's display.
But you will have to re-convert all your videos again.

Fixing audio sync in iMovie

I imported a bunch of VHS tapes using a Digital8 camcorder to do the A-D conversion and Firewire to import the resulting DV stream into iMovie. The resulting video has an audio sync issue. The video is behind by a second or so. The delay seems consistent.
How can I use iMovie to fix the sync?

That is good to know, but I would like to fix the sync on the stuff that I have streamed in.
I would like to separate to audio from the video, offset the audio and glue them back together. How do I do that?
I tried using QuickTime to create separate streams, but iMovie would not let me import the audio.

Apple, please fix audio problems with iMovie

Ok, I have many iMovie projects, about 10. In one project when I add music from iTunes I can control the tracks fade, volume, everything I'm able to control. This is also possible when I make a new project and add music from iTunes.
So, this is possible in one project and all new projects.
But when I try to add music from iTunes to an existing project (all other 9 projects) the audio controls do not work. I can't mute the iTunes mp3 I can't fade it, NOTHING. Having bought my $6000 mac primarily for iMovie you can imagine how frustrating this is.
I've tried the following
Re-installing software
Deleting preferences
Clipping audio in garage band
Using different music, including different file types, eg .WAV
It's obviously a bug apple, please fix it asap.

Hi
This is a User to User forum - Apple rarely drops in to have a read.
Give them feedback if there is a bug (that can be repeated)
How about this.

How can I cut audio clips within iMovie?

This may be a simple solution but I just can't seem to figure it out. I would like to add audio (music) to just the beginning of my iMovie project. But whenever I drop a music file into the timeline, it stretches it all the way through the entire movie.
Also, I'd like to know how to only adjust my voice to certain clips of the movie, and not the whole entire timeline.

If you only want the sound clip for a set period of time, drag it on top of one of the video clips near the beginning that will prevent the audio from becoming a 'background music clip'. Grab the title bar of that clip in the Project window and drag it until the whole background area changes from purple/green to the normal dark grey color of the Project window. Same would apply to your voice clips as well, just drag those sound clips right on the very middle of the thumbnail image of the video clip, and then slide it around to where it needs to be by dragging it to the left or right.

How to i split audio clips? Imovie 11

I'm trying to split a voice over audio clip I recorded in Quicktime and imported into my project. I can't find the precision editor nor can I select the clip and activate the split clip command under the Clip menu. It's dim. I cannot find out how to split it. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
I'm using iMovie 11.

Using iMovie 11 on Mac 10.8.3, when I right-click on a sound track, this is the menu I see:
No 'split clip'.

How do I fix audio drift?

I have two audio clips – one clip has slight drift. Is it possible to sync the two clips perfectly in either Soundtrack Pro or FCP? How? Thanks.

If you double click a file and open it up in the Audio Editor, select the whole file and then under the +Process Menu+ select *Time Stretch* you can change the duration in any unit from Seconds to Frames to Samples . . . so you have nearly infinite resolution.
The problem is how much to change it. It looks like your problem is between two sources running on two different clocks (probably both internal). You're probably going to be stuck with trial and error. Worse than that is that with inexpensive clocking devices they could actually be changing over the course of the recording, or day.
Unless both recordings start and stop at exactly the same time - unlikely. In that case you could measure the length of the two recordings in the inspector window and apply Time Stretch to one to make it the same length as the other.
Solutions would be to sync the two recording devices to a single clock source. or the old fashioned method of having a 2pop or clapper at the beginning and end of recordings.

How to debug / fix audio skipping

Hi,
My music in iTunes will sometimes skip so badly that I cannot listen to it. I don't see any way in iTunes to debug this problem.
In vlc, I also get skips, and the messages in the console there say:
main warning: output date isn't PTS date, requesting resampling (-42976)
main warning: buffer is 42978 in advance, triggering downsampling
main debug: audio output is too slow (2719665), trashing 46440us

main debug: audio output is too slow (2534210), trashing 46440us
main debug: audio output is too slow (2487816), trashing 46440us
I think the problem is at a driver level, but I don't know. Can someone help point me in a good direction for fixing this?
Thanks
