IMovie audio problems when burning in Toast 6

Hi,
i've tried to burn an imovie project in idvd 5 but i get 'the error #-1 was reported' like most people have been and i've tried loads of things suggested to fix it with no joy.
I then sent the imovie project to toast titanium 6 where it burned fine. However, when i watched it i noticed that although toast had picked up all the audio (both dv audio and aiff), it did not pick up all the volume adjustments during the movie. how annoying! for example: i have an aiff clip that fades into a movie clip with the sound gradually going down but Toast picks up the sound staying at the same level. this also happens with volume adjustments in a DV file.
Any suggestions why this happens / how i can fix it?
Cheers,
Andy

Andy,
This question is really in the wrong place - this is the iDVD '08 forum and not the iDVD 5 forum.
From the description of your problem using Toast, it sounds like you didn't actually export a DV video movie out of iMovie.
Export a DV video movie out of iMovie (it will run 13 GB per hour) and play it back with the QuickTime Player to see if the audio settings you made are really there. If this movie plays OK, you can bring IT into iDVD or Toast for turning it into a DVD.
If the DV video movie you created STILL has audio problems in the QuickTime Player, ask you question about THAT issue in the correct iMovie forum.

  • Audio Problems when burning

    I have tried making disc image, burning disc and the audio will pause for second several times in the play back. It does not do it when playing back in iDVD.
    The slide show was started in iPhoto and sent to iDVD. I have started over several times and still same issue. Makes a bad impression and is really not useable for presentation.
    I have 30 gigs free space, changed settings to Professional encoding and still same issue. I have no open apps, changed all energy settings and screen saver to never.
    Any ideas, I am fresh out, never had this problem with previous version.

  • Audio problem when burning DVD

    Hi, Hope that someone can help me, I have already make several DVD's,and those went fine, but the latest Imovie project is with spoken audio.
    When I try to burn this with IDVD 5.0.1 everything went well till IDVD has come to the audio part, hereby it goes wrong. I didn't get a failure message but nothing happened further on.
    Hope someone has a solution!

    Hello, prutgers,
    You will need to be a bit more specific with your problem so we can help you.
    What do you mean by 'it goes wrong'? What exactly happens?
    You need to know that when your DVD is encoding audio, the process appears to be doing nothing. If you leave it alone for a while, it just may finish. Maybe you are not waiting long enough.
    Especially if you don't get an error message. What are you doing? Did you force quit? Did the DVD burn and has an audio problem?
    Give us more information!

  • Lose iMovie audio adjustments when burning to iDVD

    Using iMovie 3.1 and trying to make an off camera voice audible by raising the volume control, but when I listen to the finished DVD in player, the off camera voice is so low it's inaudible. It seems that I'm getting a result opposite from the one i want. The off camera voice is recorded on one track only, while the on camera subject's voice is on both tracks.
    Again, the adjustments sound fine in iMovie - it's only when I burn it to DVD that the off camera voice virtually disappears.

    Hi k
    There are several things that can lead to this.
    I don't use the share/export to iDVD from within iMovie but
    - close iMovie
    - locate the project folder and in this the QT.mov file (with Your project "name".mov)
    - this I drop into a new iDVD theme window (just inside the edge of it)
    - if You by any change drop Your QT.mov file on the desktop and rename
    it => result - silent movie.
    You may cahnge the name "my phantastic movie" when it is a title in the
    iDVD theme window without any problems.

  • Audio problem when importing video files.

    Hello everyone,
    I just started using FCP X a few days ago for a university project and I seem to encounter an audio problem when importing videos in .mp4, .mov format or via the import from camera option.
    Indeed I need to import videos in .mp4 and .mov format into FCP X. The import in itself is normal I can see my videos into the events/clips library and if I play them from the library I can hear the sound quite perfectly.
    However, when I want to edit my videos and put it in the timeline, there is no audio. As a result I started to think that my videos could be the problem so I tried the option "import from camera" option using the Isight camera of my macbook pro but the same things happened. I could hear the sound from the events/clips library but not from the timeline (I can't see any audiowaves in the timeline).
    I found a solution using quicktime and extracting the audio of the video in .m4a then importing the videos files and the audi files corresponding but it's a long process and a waste of time  as FCP X should be able to import the audio of my video into the timeline directly. Especially if it can read it from events/clips library.
    I hope I explained myself clearly and you could help me resolve my problem.
    Cheers
    Christophe
    PS: I'm using FCP X version 10.0

    Update to 10.0.5.
    You have an incorrect setting when you edit. Try trashing your preferences. Post screen shots of your timeline and toolbar.

  • My apple Tv has audio problems when streaming from my NAS server.

    My Apple TV has audio problems when streaming from my NAS server or computer and even internet. I can hear the click sound it makes when you click on the icons, but when the movie starts there is no audio. This even happens when using XBMC. I have HMDI directly to my TV suing Apple TV 2. I have tried resetting, turning off both TV and Apple TV, and changing the HDMI cable. It is driving me nuts.

  • Multiplexing problems when burning

    Using iDVD to burn a DVD, I get a message at the end of the process stating that there were multiplexing problems during burning. When I try to play the DVD, the introduction plays fine, but when I try to play any of the three movies, created in iMovie, I get a "not permitted" message and the movie does not play. I have burned the DVD twice and got the same result both times.
    I have created several DVDs in the past, using iDVD, and did not have any problems. I have been using a LaCie DVD drive to burn my DVDs, since I do not have a superdrive on my iMac.
    Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

    I'd make sure the basics are covered.
    Lots of memory helps; and you'll need 10-15 gigs of space on the hard drive for scratch space.
    Buy good quality disks - I've seen recommendations for Maxell, Sony, Verbatim, TDK and a few others based on testing. I primarily use the first two and usually don't have trouble.
    Give yourself lots of time.
    Turn off your screen savers and energy savers; don't let your hard drive go to sleep.
    Get your computer healthy and ready for some heavy lifting. (video work could be the hardest job your computer can do) MacJanitor followed by Apple's DiskUtility's Repair Permissions is my routine.
    Most of the time iDVD is working, it is encoding (compressing) your video to fit on the DVD. Create an image .img file and use Toast or Disk Utility to burn it to disk. Burn slow (1 or 2x).
    I keep my projects under 60 minutes (for highest resolution).
    Try testers; you can use DVD-RW
    I import into iDVD rather than export from iMovie (fewer errors).
    No other apps open.
    If you use iDVD for burning the DVD (and don't make a disk image), don't quit iDVD even when the DVD is burned, until you've played the DVD in a regular player (it's much easier to burn another disk and check to see if the problem was a bad disk, than to go back through all that encoding again by quitting iDVD).

  • IDVD 3 calibration problems when burning

    Help! I'm having calibration error messages when burning iDVD-R discs in iDVD 3. I've had success in the past with Maxell DVD-R 8X discs but other brands and other speeds won't work. I can't find Maxell DVD-R 8X discs anymore. Do I need to update the iDVD software? I'm at a loss to figure this one out.
    Swen

    hi sue,
    i purchased the verbatim dvd-r and burned 1 dvd successfully. unfortunately, it will not burn again and i am prompted with the same error message: Power calibration area error: (0x73, 0x03). what is weird is that when i tried to burn a .mov file using toast, i was prompted with an error similar to the idvd error (0x73, 0x03). Could this be a problem with both idvd and imovie? i am able to burn data onto dvds within toast, just not files that i have created using imovie and idvd. i hope this makes sense!
    thanks

  • Audio problems from burning DVD's from Macbook Pro?

    Hey guys,
    So lately I have been having problems with burning DVD.  I use either iDVD or Roxio Toast Titanium 11 too burn movies to play on my television. After burnign them I notice all of them have audio problems.  It's as if the audio is faint for the dialogue but when background music plays its blaring! I checked my TV and its definitely not my Television because sound plays from both speakers.  I was wondering if any other Macbook users had this problem or users of either of these programs had this problem because it's such a hassle burning movies without really enjoying them.
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

  • Audio disappears when burning in iDVD 6 from QT movie (from FCP)

    Before burning, checked all the chapters and each plays with audio. When the disc burns it does encode the audio during the burning process but the only audio that is present when the burn if completed is the audio on the 1st menu. I only inserted video on menus two and three (using "Full Frame" menu) as I only want video; no audio on those two menus . I had to force quit twice and then ran Repair Permissions. Should have I trashed iDVD prefs and if so, is there only one to trash?
    thanks for any help . . .this forum is invaluable.

    I had to force quit twice and then ran Repair Permissions. Should have I trashed iDVD prefs and if so, is there only one to trash?
    drag and drop all incidents of the iDVD plist to the trash. Use the finder or spotlight to locate all incidents of plist for iDVD. Looks like this:
    com.apple.iDVD.plist
    secondly, you will need to repair permissions on the HD.
    applications > utilities > apple's DU
    third, delete all encoded assets from the advanced menu.
    forth, recommend using different media like Verbatim DVD-R Minus media and burn from a disc image using apple's DU or Toast at 4x or slower.
    fifth .....be very patient while it encodes and burns. i've seen some dvd's take up to 2 days.
    sixth ....make certain you have no less than 20GB of available HD space.
    Good luck!

  • I have an audio problem when ever I use my Firefox web browser that makes a sharp audible sound simiular to a video game gun shot sound effect when ever I go into a new web page?

    I have an audio problem that when ever I use my Firefox web browser it makes a sharp audible sound similar to a video game gun shot sound effect when ever I go into a new web page? I change to a new site or page a page on a site, I get an audible gunshot ping trpe sound? It happens almost every time. Its very annoying and is driving me nuts???
    Any body out there had this happen also or know how to diagnose and fix this type of problem? I would hate to have to delete my whole Firefox program and have to start over again. If that is the case I will probably just scrap it and go on to try Google Chrome instead. I already have GC partially set up. I really have liked Firefox up to this point. I know add ons can cause problems at times but I haven't added anything new lately and this just started happening?

  • Audio Problem When Making Normal Call

    I've run into a problem where, if I place or receive a call using my iPhone, the iPhone doesn't play or transmit the conversation audio. In fact, I don't even hear ringing. This changes if I change the call into Speaker mode; audio seems to work fine after I do that. I was having this problem last night and it continued into today, and I've reset it twice. I'd prefer to not have to restore it and put all of my music and stuff back on the phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    I have noticed that from time to time the device loses track of what to use for output.
    Since I use BlueTooth most of the time I have been able to bypass the problem with the depression of the button on the BlueTooth headset.
    When I do not have the BlueTooth on, I normally have to put the iPhone up to my ear to hear the audio.
    When possible you can go to Voicemail, depress the audio key and then depress the manner that you want to receive the audio.

  • Audio problems when exporting files from Premiere Pro CS5

    I try to post in English.
    I have audio problems in Premiere Pro CS5 when exporting a film.
    I cut an interview. The sound seems not to be synchronized when exporting a file. It doesn´t matter what file format I export. On cutting points the sound is different to the sound I hear in premiere. In premiere the audio sounds very good but in exported file I hear cracks on cutting points.
    When I reimport the audio file an put it in the timeline the synch point is correct but the interview differs about 2 frames to the original audio in premiere.
    The material was filmed on Sony ex3. The files are XDCam HD. I have updated the production suite.
    Thanks for answers
    Frieder

    Also, make sure that you check the box marked "Export Audio" if you want a MP4 extension.
