  • How do I put the audio from one clip over the video of another clip?

    So I have two videos, and I want to replace the audio of the first with the audio of the second. Sorry, I'm new to 08 and have been trying to suss this out for ages so I'd really appreciate any advice you guys can give.

    This thread seems to be on the same subject and is very helpful.

    The Working with Audio clip also included the solution for extracting the audio from a clip at the very end of the video. Having to know the secret handshake of shift-command and dragging is really not intuitive, but such is progress....

  • How do I use just the audio from a clip in imovie? No picture, no video, just audio!

    I want to put the audio from a clip at the end of the video. No video, just black screen

    It will require a bit of a workaround. But it can be done. If you enable Advanced Tools under the iMovie Preferences (Go to the iMovie Menu > Preferences). Enable Advanced Tools by clicking the checkbox.
    Now create  a title with a black background by dragging at title to the end of the video on the Project timeline. Once the title is there, delete all the text on the title. Now drag that black background directly dead center onto the video clip just before the end where you want to 'blot out' the video and just have audio. When you release the mouse, you will be shown a pop-up menu with a bunch of different options including one titled cut-away. Choose this option. What will happen is the video will cut to the black video background you dragged on top of the video clip. You can set the duration by dragging the left and right edges out further to make it run longer. This black back ground effectively cover the video and will continue to play the audio of the underlying video clip.

    "Command-Shift-Drag" the Event clip containing the audio you wish to extract and "pin" it to the slideshow already in the Project window.

  • How do I overlay audio from interview clip over other video clips?

    Help! I have some interview clips and want to over lay the audio from one of the interviews over different video clips. For example, I would show video and audio from the interviewee and then cut to a clip or scene showing what the guy is talking about but still have the interviewees audio playing as a voice over on the cut-away clip. How do I do that?!

    Welcome to the forum.
    Is this Audio muxed (combined into a Clip w/ both Audio & Video), or is it a separate Audio-only file, that has been Imported into your Project?
    If the latter, just drag an Instance of it to a free Audio Track, and position, as is needed. Note: each Instance of a Clip can have different In & Out Poiints, so you are not limited to them being identical.
    For the former, the muxed file, there are a couple of ways to do that, but possibily the easiest is to Alt-click on the Audio part of the Clip (temporarily unlinks the Audio & Video), and Ctrl-C (Copy), then move the CTI (Current Time Indicator/Playhead) to the end of the Timeline, and press Ctrl-V (Paste), for as many Instances of that Audio, as you need. Then, drag them to an empty Audio Track, while holding down the Ctrl key for an Insert Edit, rather than a Ripple Edit, so as to not affect anything on that Track, below the desired Video Clip. If you are replacing the Audio.
    Another way to do that is to use an audio-editing program to rip the Audio, Save as a PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit file, and then Import that into the Project, for use in many Instances.
    Good luck, and hope that helps,

  • Can one copy Audio from one clip minus its video...to paste to another?

    I'm working on a painting video...as an artist/teacher...and easily created a 3 minute trailer on YouTube using iMovie...
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LXWxjjGkAg
    I have Final Cut Express 3.5.1 on my intel...and thought I'd best use this higher standard software for the making of my 90 minute DVD...but dang, its coming hard for me. Trying to make sense of the help manual. With iMovie it was nothing to copy an audio track, copy and paste elsewhere...but with FCE I can't seem to separate the audio of the track from one clip to copy and paste elsewhere without that video clip wanting to come along.
    The original clip is me painting by a waterfalls..the original narrative voicing was weak, so I did a voice over with a mic and toneport tonight, now I want to paste in the sound of the falls behind copied from a clip where I did no speaking.
    I have Soundtrack as well. Am I better off just putting my video clips together in FCE...then importing the whole thing to Soundtrack to edio audio? Seems audio with FCE is tough...well, for me anyway. Thanks

    Hi -
    In FCE, select the clip on the timeline that has the audio and video stuck together. Go to the menu Edit and toggle Linked Selection (the check mark will go away).
    Now you should be able to copy and paste one without the other.
    Hope this helps.

  • I just moved from Germany back to the USA. How can I use an German iPhone6 from T-Mobile  in the USA

    I just moved from Germany back to the USA. How can I use an German iPhone 6 from T-Mobile  in the USA?

    Was your phone locked to T-Mobile? If so, it needs to be unlocked before you can use it here. I believe you can use it with AT&T or T-Mobile here, but you won't get 4G/LTE speeds.

  • How do I retrieve binary cluster data from a file without the presense of the cluster size in the data?

    Hey guys,  I'm trying to read a binary data file created by a C++ program that didn't append sizes to the structures that were used when writing out the data.  I know the format of the structures and have created a cluster typedef in LabView.  However the unflatten from string function expects to see additional bytes of data identifying the size of the cluster in the file.   This just plain bites!  I need to retrieve this data and have it formatted correctly without doing it manually for each and every single element.  Please Help!
    Message Edited by AndyP123 on 06-04-2008 11:42 AM

    Small update.  I have fixed size arrays in the clusters of data in the file and I have been using arrays in my typedefs in LabView and just defining x number of indexes in the arrays and setting them as the default value under Data Operations.  LabView may maintain the default values, but it still treats an array as an unknown size data type.  This is what causes LabView to expect the cluster size to be appended to the file contents during an unflatten.  I can circumvent this in the most simplest of cases by using clusters of the same type of data in LabView to represent a fixed size array in the file.  However, I can't go around using clusters of data to represent fixed size arrays BECAUSE I have several multi-dimentional arrays of data in the file.  To represent that as a cluster I would have to add a single value for every element to such a cluster and make sure they are lined up sequentially according to every dimension of the array.  That gets mighty hairy, mighty fast. 
    EDIT:  Didn't see that other reply before I went and slapped this in here.  I'll try that trick and let you know how it works.......

  • Is there a way to re-compress the audio of a clip without re-exporting the video?

    Hey guys, I have 500 clips that took me 2 days to render to ProRes just to find out that the audio is not the right format. What do i do now?
    I don't want to have to re-export all those 500 files again and wait 2 more days. Is there a way to run those files through an application (either in compressor or something else) that will re-render the audio in the right format without doing anything to the video?
    I know how to swap the audio of a file using QT Player 7 but I only know how to do that one file at a time. Obviously, I wouldn't even think about doing that 500 times... I'll go nuts.
    What are my other options? Adobe Media Encoder? MPEG Streamclip? VLC? Anything at all?
    Any help is much appreciated

    Well this workflow should work but I don't know if there might be problems down the road.
    Bring all your prores files with the problem audio into compressor.  Apply the audio 48k16 bit preset to them.  This will create individual aiff files with fcp friendly settings.  
    Bring the resulting aiffs into fcp.  Select the video qt and audio aiff in the browser for one clip and control click on one of them and choose merge clip.  This should create new clips with the good audio as channels 3 and 4 (assuming the original files have 2 channels of audio). 
    You should then be able to edit the merged clip into the timeline and by just patching channels 3 and 4 (the 48k16bit audio tracks)  into your timeline and unpatching channels 1 and 2.  , you should not need to render the audio.
    Try testing this workflow on one clip and see if everything works before doing all of the clips.
    If any of this is not clear or you need help with any of this, post back.
    Frankly, you might be just as easy and safer to reconvert all the clips with the audio enabled to 48k16bit in compressor.    You could also edit each clip into it's own sequence, replace the ng audio with aiffs made as I described above and then export reference quicktimes to edit with. 

  • I CANNOT SYNC MY IPOD DUE TO TOO MANY ID'S.  hOW DO i USE JUST ONE ID AND GET RID OF THE OTHERS SO I CAN AUTHORIZE THIS COMPUTER TO SYNC.

    I cannot sync my ipod classic with this computer.  For some reason, my computer will not authorize my ipod.  I seem to have 5 usernames, but I only want to use one  I use my ipod 4 my job; this is extremely frustrating.  the serial # has been scratched off my ipod, so when I called support, I couldn't read it to the automated service accurately.  HELP!!!!!

    It sounds like you have reached the authorization limit of 5 computers.  So if you need to authorize another one, either deauthorize any other computers have authorized in the past that you still have physical access to or use the Deauthorize All option as described in this article.

  • How can I use itunes store credit with Apple TV without the credit card code?

    I would like to allow guests in my home to use the credit in my iTunes account to purchase movies and TV shows on the Apple TV in my guest room.
    Unfortunately, it seems that in order to make a purchase they will need my credit card security code.  If they have this, then they could purchase an arbitrary number of movies, but I would like to limit purchases to the credit in the account.
    Is there any solution here?  How can I give my guests an Apple TV "allowance" (not a monthly allowance, a one-time allowance) and not give them my credit card security code?

    You can't really do this with an already existing AppleID from what I know. Now, if you don't have an AppleID, here's the run-down of how to do it:

  • How to copy a part of audio from a clip then paste in another part?

    I could not seem to do this.
    I want to include some ambient sound so I can make smoother transitions between clips and audio files

    Hi,
    In addition to Willard's suggestion, I would like to clarify the following thing:
    For all Exchange server roles other than the Edge Transport server role, you should first join the computer to the appropriate internal Active Directory forest and domain.
    Hope my clarification is helpful.

  • Suggestions for blending audio from one clip to next?

    I'm learning editing and PP and am practicing by editing different clips from a movie to make my own trailer. The problem I'm having is that going from one clip to another has obvious and abrupt changes. I could add audio transitions to each clip, though for a 2.5 minute trailer I'm not sure if fading audio up and down constantly is the best choice? What is the best way to blend the audio from one clip to the next?
    Thanks.

    You can create a crossfade (essentially an
    audio dissolve) from one audio clip to another.
    With the audio track(s) targeted, park the Playhead at the
    audio cut and hit Ctrl+Shift+D (or drag from the effect panel):
    You need to be sure you have sufficient 'handles'
    on both clips to accommodate the crossfade.

  • How do you record video with usb mic and have the audio from garageband be the sound when recording and not just your normal voice but garage band effects for youtube?

    How do you record video with usb mic and have the audio form garageband be apart of the video when recording, meaning the audio from garageband and echo  and not just your normal voice for youtube post?its not add the garageband audio its just normal voice from mic no  effects is going thru?

    Hi Life93,
    What you describe would be possible by recording your video, then removing the audio from it and adding audio from GarageBand once the video is in iMovie (I presume here that you are using iMovie for your video production. Other applications may need different methods.)

  • How can I raise the audio level of just a PORTION of a clip (not the whole thing)?

    Would like to raise the level of one part of my project but NOT the other. This only seems to allow me to raise the entire project, but not individual sections. Earlier versions of iMovie had the ability to crossfade several audio tracks, etc., but this 'new and improved' one doesn't. Am I missing something?
    Have tried separating the audio, but that doesn't help.
    Thanks,
    Cameron

    Cameron,
    Have a look at this article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iMovie/9.0/en/mov3b0fb5f2.html
    You can adjust only a portion of the audio of a clip without further splitting it.
