How to edit a multiple audio video clip on Premiere

Hello everybody
Maybe this is a dumb question, I'm sorry if I'm asking what is obvious for you, but I swear I tried to find on the web and on this forum, but I couldn't find anything.
Well, I made a video using a screen capture software called Dxtory, that provides me the ability to record my PC screen, with multiple audio tracks.
Ok, now I have a 15gb avi file. When I open this file in the Media Player Classic, I can play one or both channels. The first channel is the original audio captured from my PC. Every audio generated by my PC is in this track. The second track is my voice, with my commentaries. I have all of this in one single file. They are not splited. It's just one file.
Then when I import into Premiere, the software just recognize the video track and the first audio track. I can't find the second, with my voice.
I know I can split the clip into 3 files (1 video and 2 audios) but it would take longer. I just want to drop the file on Premiere and edit the audio volumes quickly, because when I talk I would like to low the volume of the PC audio.
Now, the question: Is there a way to Premiere recognize both tracks in this single file? How?
Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm actually surprised that Pr can import this at all--the video is Xvid. Maybe it's some variant that Pr's importers can handle, as Jeff suggested. I dunno--it doesn't play well for me, regardless, and I'm not going to install the Dxtory codec to find out.
Anyway, to the matter at hand: while AVIs can, apparently, contain multiple audio tracks, Pr's importers are limited to a single track. However, Pr has other importers than can handle multiple audio tracks. QuickTime--which is a wholly different process--supports multiple audio tracks, as does MXF (some flavors). However, Xvid in QuickTime (which is feasible) won't import in Pr (at least on a PC), and Xvid won't go into an MXF file at all; that means you'd have to transcode. Personally, this would be my choice--but I found that the original clip played back pretty terribly, so that would be why I'd go that route.
Additionally, you could extract the second audio track to a separate WAV file, import both the AVI and WAV, and then use the Merge Clips feature to marry them together as one pseudo-clip. Not perfect, but it would work. The benefit is that you don't re-encode anything.
So, I've got solutions for both the re-encode/MXF option (my preference) and the AVI/WAV option. Here's proof of the MXF (transcoded video to XDCAMHD422 50Mbps) with four audio channels (stereo must be split to dual mono):
At the end of the day, these (or a variation of them) are your only options. Pr simply won't import multiple audio tracks (even dual mono) in an AVI container. Let me know if you're interested in either of the solutions.

    What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
    In the absence of that information, I will generalize, tending toward Premiere Elements 11....
    a. Right click the Expert workspace Timeline video, select Fade from the pop up menu and then the wanted Fade Audio or Video command.
    b. In version 11, you could click on Applied Effects/Applied Effects Palette/Opacity Panel and the shortcut Fades there.
    c. You could keyframe the Opacity property in the Applied Effects Palette/Opacity or via the video track content rubberband at the Timeline Level.
    Please supply more information for fading in out your video and audio track contents.
    Thanks.

  • How do you put a homemade video clip on iPod using Windows?

    I'm so annoyed. I spent my only phone support call to Apple trying to figure out how to get a home made video clip onto my Video iPod and they have no idea unless you are a Mac user. I have successfully put DVDs on the iPod using DVD Decrypter and Nero Recode but if you want to export a small clip, from Adobe Preimere for example, it seems impossible. Can anyone help???? I have exported a clip from Premiere and it says it's a Quicktime file but when I open the file in Quicktime Pro and "export to iPod" it will be rejected after dragging it to the iPod Library. There are programs to help you complete this task if you are a Mac user but I can't find any solution for PC. Any suggestions? I just want to be able to take a segment of video I made on a minidv camcorder and put it on the iPod. I know how to capture and edit it using Premiere but how do I save/export the clip in a file format that Quicktime and/or the iPod will recognize?

  • How do I fix my audio/video in iChat 4.0.9?  it has worked perfectly until last night.

    How do I fix my audio/video in iChat 4.0.9?  it has worked perfectly until last night.  I have been having video calls iChat with my granddaughter for 4 weeks.  All of a sudden last night I wasn't able to complete the video/audio.  We were able to iChat with writing.  The message I got was to go to connection doctor.
    The error log -
    2011-04-24 19:33:43 -0400: No data has been received for the last 10 seconds.
    Audio channel info: local machine using 10.0.1.2:16402, expecting remote machine to send to 69.138.244.124:58521

    Every time we tried to connect I got the same error message.
    I use an airport extreme - my granddaughter has some kind of wifi - but the error was on my side not hers as she connected to her friends.
    Please help.
    Thank you.

    Hi - I have a cable modem from comcast.
    I am not sure I understand all your questions, suggestions - so I will copy what I have when I go into the airport utility under internet.
    Do you have four tabs (You may have less)  I HAVE 4 TABS
    In the First tab what does it read at the Bottom ?  AT THE BOTTOM OF THE FIRST TAB (INTERNET CONNECTION) IT DOES SAY "SHARE A PUBLIC IP"  WHEN I LOOK AT THAT SETTING - I COULD CLICK INSTEAD BRIDGE MODE OFF, OR DISTRIBUTE A RANGE OF IP ADDRESSES.  BUT FOR NOW THE ONE THAT IT IS ON IS THE SHARE A PUBLIC IP.
    "Share a Public IP" ?
    Or "Bridge (Off) Mode" ?
    I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHERE TO LOOK FOR THE INFO BELOW.  I ALSO HAVE UNDER THE INTERNET CONNECTION TAB - CONNECT USING ETHERNET AND ETHERNET WAN PORT AUTOMATIC (DEFAULT)
    THE 2ND TAB IS TCP/IP AND THERE IT LISTS CONFIGURE IPv4: USING DHCP
    IP ADDRESS: 69.138.244.124
    SUBNET MASK  255.255.248.0
    ROUTER ADDRESS  69.138.240.1
    DNS SERVER  68.87.73.246  AND 68.87.71.230  (THESE ARE FILLED IN THE BOXES AND NOT CHANGEABLE.
    THE 3RD TAB IS DHCP
    DHCP BEGINNING ADDRESS 10.0 .1 .2
    DHCP ENDING ADDRESS 10.0.1.200
    DHCP LEASE IS 1  THEN DAY
    4TH TAB NAT
    CHECKED IS ENABLE NAT PORT MAPPING PROTOCOL
    I HAVE BEEN USING THIS AIRPORT EXTREME FOR AT LEAST ONE YEAR.
    THE ONLY DIFFERENT ISSUE IS THAT I HAD BEEN TRAVELING AND USED MY DAUGHTER'S AIRPORT EXTREME LAST WEEK.  I HAVE NO IDEA ANY OF THAT INFO - BUT I DO KNOW THAT THE AIRPORT EXTREME LISTED IN THE UTILITY IS THE ONE AT MY HOME THAT I AM WITH NOW.
    THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO TRY TO HELP ME.  I REALLY APPRECIATE IT.
    JUDY
    Between that drop down and the tabs should be the info  on how it connects to the Modem.
    It may list that Puiblic IP.
    It may list another LAN IP (one from the Modem)
    Does it start 192.168....
    Or 172.16 (or up to 172.32....)
    Or possibly another 10.... number ?
    If the modem is issuing IPs to the LAN there are two things that can  effect things
    One is the fact the computer gets two IPs (even though the mac can only display one)
    And If you used Port Forwarding in the Modem the Place (IP/Computer or device) that it was pointing to may not be the Airport Base Station any more.

  • How can I raise the volume on a video clip in Premiere Elements 12?

    I want to raise the volume on a video clip in Premiere Elements 12. Can anyone help?

    jcomput
    Always good to give the computer operating system involved in case any computer specific details needed to be included. But here is your
    generalized yet specific answer for Premiere Elements 12 and increasing the volume of a video clip.
    If you are in the Expert workspace...
    a. click and drag upward the orange band that runs horizontally through the middle of the audio clip.
    or
    b. go to Adjust Tab/Adjustments Palette/ Volume Panel expanded on move the volume slide toward +6 dB.
    0 db does not represent no sound. It represents the volume of the sound when it was recorded. 0 to +6 dB increases the sound above the recording level; 0 to infinity symbol decreases the sound below the recording level, finally to muted sound.
    Please let us know if you are OK with the details above. My blog post on PE12: Audio Features may be useful to you.

    Try forcing iPhoto to load the Library on the External Hard drive by launching it while holding down the Option key. Choose the Library on the External HD, and quit iPhoto, see if iMovie can see the Library with the iPhoto Videos contained inside.

  • How Adobe Premier Pro's linked video clips are ID in Bridge?

    I just finished a FEATURE-FILM in HD comprised of 40 + different Adobe Premier Projects;
    Obviously, at the end you end up with many video clips associated to manyAdobe Premier Projects (i.e.; one video clip could be being used by 17 Adobe Premier Projects), and some video clips are associated to none.
    So this is the thing: I need to delete 5,000 + useless-not associated video clips, however, to make sure that I am not breaking any link, I need to know that they are, or they are not associated with any of my Adobe Premier Projects.
    How does Bridge indicate that a video clip is or is not associated (linked) to an Adobe Premier Project?

  • How can i rewind Or forward video clip in Nokia 62...

    How can i rewind Or forward video clip in Nokia 6230i. plz help me out. thanx in advance.
    Haris

    Hello.
    Fast forwarding and rewinding video on the 6230i is not possible as far as I remember with experience with several Series 40 phones. The proprietary Nokia OS runs a multimedia player incapable of doing this feature. I also have never heard of a certain compatible Java-based media player application which can do this. Maybe the architecture of Series 40 does not support advanced software features allowing this. However if you really want to watch using your phone, you cannot be able to fast forward or rewind.
    Cheers.
    PS:I am not really sure about this though; just a quick opinion. How about some ideas from other 6230i users?
    The world might be a better place if you were I.

  • Breaking Link Between Audio/Video Clips

    Although this question I'm sure is simple, i'm not finding it in any of the documentation.
    I need ONLY the Audio portion of some of my Audio/Video Clips. I can't break the link, so that I can slide the Audio Clip around on the time line. Thanks for any info you can provide.

    Either hold down the OPTION key before you click on the audio, or look on the button bar above the timeline on the right. There are two default buttons, one being LINKED SELECTION. Turn that one off and audio and video will disconnect.

  • Export video clip from Premiere into an existing Encore project

    How do I go about exporting a video clip from premiere CS3 into an open/existing encore project. When I try to export to encore from the prem. timeline it makes a new proj. Sometimes I want to render out and export more than one asset into the same encore proj. but cant seem to figure out how to do that. any help would be great.
    Thanks,

    thanks J.....I have been doing it all along the way that you suggested. Just wondered if there might be a more efficient way to bring in multiple files. I appreciate your help with this....now at least I know that I am not doing things in a more difficult manner than necessary.

  • 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.

  • How do I merge multiple audio clips to one?

    Hey Everyone,
    After syncing multiple clips in PE I import them into Premiere CS6 and they are all layered with their own audio tracks (though the video clips are synced with only one audio track). This causes inconsistent audio levels. How do I join all these clips which originally derived from one audio recorder to merge as one? If there is a step by step process please advise. Thanks in advance, you guys are beyond awesome.
    Mike Diaz

    If all audio is from a single audio source (with consistent levels0 ..the only reason you would be getting different audio levels on different audio tracks is if the Mixer has different settings....or the audio has been changed at clip level.
    Its usually desireable to have audio clips on different tracks.
    Can you not just drag the audio clips to a single audio track...if that's what you really need?
    Alternatively a mixdown...but that requires sorting the levels anyway.  ( Mixer on automation or at clip level.)
