Inconsistent audio sample rates....? pt. 2

I'm running Compressor3. The last three projects I've done have all been put together on fcp6, and the audio has been sampled at 48khz. When I go to compress, I get an 'inconsistent/multiple audio sample rates' warning. However, all my audio is set to the same rates. I've tried cutting down to only one audio source, and tried also resampling through Soundtrack to 44.1, adjusting my settings in Compressor as well. Any suggestions?
I should add that I can compress from .mov to .mp4, etc.....but the one format I need is .wmv, and that's the one that is giving me trouble.

It is a well-known issue but it's not highly publicized. Flip4Mac has a problem with the last round of Quciktime. You willneed to download a new rev of Flip from Telestream's site. I think it's still being called a beta version, even after several months.

Error message stops .wmv creation: "Inconsistent Audio Sample Rate..."

Just recently when attempting to export a video into the .wmv format, QuickTime Pro 7.2 gives me this alert message, "Inconsistent Audio Sample Rate. The media you are exporting contains audio with multiple sample rates." QuickTime will not compress (export) to .wmv. It will export to .mov. and .m4v.
This problem is new. For more than a year my weekly video exported to the .wmv format without fail.
I am working on a Mac G4 Dual Processor and iMovieHD.
Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

The recent release of QuickTime 7.2 created an audio compression error for Flip4Mac WMV Studio, Studio Pro and Studio Pro HD customers. Specifically, when encoding WMV files with Flip4Mac WMV v.2.1.2 using uncompressed audio sources on QuickTime 7.2 systems, customers were receiving "Inconsistent Audio Sample Rate" error and the encode will fail. This problem has been resolved with the beta release of Flip4Mac WMV v2.1.33. If you are using QuickTime 7.2, please upgrade to this release at http://www.flip4mac.com/wmv_beta.htm

Error Msg.: "Inconsistent Audio Sample Rate" with Flip4Mac

If you're using Flip4Mac to produce WMV files, the latest QT updates will create a conflict with Flip4Mac, which produces the error msg. referenced in the subj. heading above.
If you're using Flip4Mac, you may want to wait until Telestream resolves the issue before upgrading QT.

Cannot export as WMV - Inconsistent Audio Sample Rate error

Hello,
I am getting an error message when I try to export a sequence using quicktime conversion to a WMV. "Inconsistent Audio Sample Rate - The media you are exporting contains audio with multiple sample rates".
I used Soundtrack Pro for the first time- to analysis and fix an audio file with pops. It worked wonderfully. I don't have much experience with this program and the audio is set to 32-bit stereo with a file ext stp. Not sure how to change this or if I need to.
I have done some tests and I have no problem exporting as a quicktime. I am using the latest version of flip4mac software. Your help is appreciated.
Cheers,
Chris

Hi Susan,
Thanks for your quick reply. The link helped alot.
For others facing this problem, I found this solution.
1. Export sequence as a Quicktime movie (not conversion) using current settings and make movie self-contained.
2. Create a new sequence and change the sequence audio setting (under sequence-general) to 44.1 kHz - Dept 16-bit config default
3. Drag your Quicktime movie into this new sequence.
4. Export using Quicktime conversion to WMV with these settings for audio.
5. WMA9 Standard - One pass, CBR at 64kbps, 44.1 khz, Stereo.
Voila.
I have struggled with flip4mac from the start. Never had any luck using the 2 pass method which 1'm told is better quality. Tech support at the flip4mac discussion group generated much discussion but no solution. I have settled with single pass quality in order to get the job done.
Does any remember the days of linear editing when you delivered a master, protection copy and some VHS dubs and you were done? Oh, I'm showing my age. Ha.Ha.
Cheers,
Chris

Message: inconsistent audio sample rate

when trying to Share my movie to create a .wmv file, I get the following message: "inconsistent audio sample rate -- the media you are exporting contains audio with multiple sample rates."
The audio to this clip is not the native audio. I replaced it ( on the second track - the first track audio I muted by turning off the check mark next to that track) with audio imported from Itunes. That audio clip is an aac audio file, 128 kbps, 44.1 khz. In expert settings I matched this, and indicated coding method: One pass constant bit rate (CBR).
Anyone know what it is I am doing wrong? Many thanks

No. That is not how it works.
44100Hz is the frequency and the audio sample rate could be 8, 12, 16 or even 24. Same with 48, 96 and higher frequencies. Open the Audio MIDI Setup app to see what your machine and sound card can offer.
QuickTime files can combine up to 99 tracks so a mix of sample rates wouldn't be much of an issue. WMP exports (I've never made one) seem to require only one audio source or constant sample sizes.
iMovie uses 48KHz because that is how it comes off DV tape. AIFF files are usually the same as audio CD (44.1KHz and 16 bit sample size) and I don't know if iMovie upsamples or otherwise changes them at import but I doubt it.
But 44100 does not equal 12 bit sample size.
Hope this helps clear that issue up.

Inconsistent Audio Sample Rate - Export issue

I am attempting to export my project into a Windows Media file and I'm getting an error that says "inconsistent audio sample rate" Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

That error was introduced with the release of Quicktime 7.2. Flip4Mac released a beta with the fix for that particular audio error thing HERE. I don't think the final is ready yet, just the beta, but it's working for me. Don't be "put off" by it, but, before you can download the beta, they ask you to fill out some registration info so you can report back any problems you might encounter.

Fixed but still says Inconsistent Audio Sample Rates

I imported some purchased music .aif files; completed my piece then tried to export a .wmv file through Quicktime. It told me I had "Inconsistent Audio Sample Rates" so I went back and re-exported the file through Quicktime with a sample rate matching the rest of my project.
I'm still getting the "Inconsistent Audio Sample Rates".
What do I need to do to get the project exported?
Cheers,
D

I have also been getting this error - just starting today. I tried exporting a mixdown in aiff, then converting that to MP3, bringing it back into a new sequence -- all with no luck.
However, I then exported this mixed-down version as a self-contained movie. Then, I did the wmv conversion with Cleaner 6 and it works. Slight glitch in frame 1 for some reason (motion file within the FCP sequence) -- but it seems like it's on the right track.
I also get the feeling this is due to the audio update. These are 8-track sequences I've been working with on and off for two months -- and the first time I try to render out after the audio, osx, and QT update, and it's crapping out on me. Could also be the changes to the h.264?
I've been spending all day on this, and I'm at my wits end!

Export/share wmv "inconsistent audio sample rate"

I've never used iMovie before today. I successfully imported a mini DV clip and need to "share" it as an wmv. I keep getting an error stating "inconsistent audion sample rate". What does this mean and how do I fix it so I can save my clip as a wmv file?
Thanks much.

Which codec are you using in Compressor? If you are using Flip4Mac, have a look at this knowledge base article: http://www.flip4mac.com/knowledge/kb_0070.htm

Audio sample rate does not match (HDcam to dvcam)

I'm trying to import clips and keep getting this message:
"The audio sample rate of one or more of your captured media files does not match the sample rate on your source tape. This may cause the video and audio of these media files to be out of sync. Make sure the audio sample rate of your capture preset matches the sample rate of your tape."
Footage was originally shot on HDCAM and transferred to DVCAM elsewhere. Using FCP 5, am importing via firewire from a Sony DSR-11 deck. Using DV NTSC 48kHz Anamorphic as capture settings (though I've tried everything that I thought might possibly work with no success). The audio does not seem to drift over the course of several 5 minute or so clips. Clip settings show audio at 48 kHz (don't know if that's from capture settings or from actual data). Seems to me all audio should be 48 kHz 16 bits, so can't figure out what's going on. I have to export an EDL for the project to be finished in HD. Read some similar threads that ended in December, seemingly without much resolution. My broader concern is why this is happening; my immediate concern is do I need to worry about this right now since the media files will need to be recaptured in HD anyway. Any thoughts?
Thanks

A little more info. I'm having this problem on 4 tapes (from different cameras) that were transferred to DVCAM in a squished format to appear full screen on a 4x3 monitor. Video that was letterboxed and I can bring in with the standard DV NTSC capture settings does not have this problem. Still have the problem if I try to import the clips from the squished video with standard settings. Any thoughts?

How can I find out the audio sampling rate of BetacamSP tape?

Hi guys
I'm trying to digitize BetacamSP tape. But I'm afraid if I might choose wrong setting...
This tape is from very long time ago so we don't know which audio sampling rate we recorded with..
How can I find out the audio sampling rate of this BetacamSP tape?
Thanks:)

The sampling rate is set by the Sony DVMCDA2 you are using, when the conversion is made from the analog input to the digital (DV) output. You should be outputting standard DV which is 16bit 48khz audio.
Assuming you are in the US, your Easy Setup for FCP should be DV-NTSC, and then open the Log and Capture Pane and set the Capture Settings Device Control to Non-Controlable Device and you should be good to go.
You will have to roll the deck manually and start and end your capture manually.
You can download a user manual for the DVMCDA2 by clicking here.

Usually when I disconnect the audio interface from my computer and then open up a song that has a different sample rate, the crash doesn't happen. But when the interface is hooked up (this problem started just a few weeks ago...), I get this error, pls bear with me, its long:

What is the best way to deal with different audio sample rates on the same timeline ?

what is the best way to deal with different audio sample rates on the same timeline ?

You don't have to do anything special. If possible, start your project with a clip that has the desired target frame rate and audio sample rate, and your project parameters will be set automatically. Other sample rates will be converted under the covers.
For example, if your video is shot at 48khz, you can add music files at 44.1khz with no problem.
If you are recording audio that you want to synch with video (multicam), you will get best results if everything is 48khz, but you can use 44.1 if that is all you have. Once I forgot to reset my Zoom to 48,000 and it still worked.

How do I change the audio sample rate from 48kHz to 44.1kHz for Mpeg2

Hey all,
I've been searching for a while but haven't found any direct answers in the forums or the user manual so here goes.
I have to dispatch a file to Bloomberg TV and the file specs they have given me are as follows:
Video Standard: MPEG-2, MP:ML, 4:2:0
Frame Rate: PAL 25fps
Video Size 720 x 405
Aspect Ratio 16:9
Audio Standard MPEG-1 Layer 2
MPEG-2 Program Stream Mux rate 6mbs per second
Bit Rate Type: CBR
Video Bit Rate 5.7mbs
Audio Bit Rate 192kbs
Audio Sample Rate 44.1Khz
Interlacing: Upper Field first (why they want interlaced for web streaming is beyond me)
GOP Structure: IBBP
I-Frame distance 12
Now everything above is fine except the audio encoding because even though I have set up a new setting from scratch I cant find anywhere to adjust the audio sample rate. The Inspector tells me the Audio encoder is set to:
Format: MPEG
Sample Rate: 48.000kHz
Channels: 2
Bits Per Sample: 16
Anyone Know how or even if I can change these audio settings? The only adjustments I can find are the filters or the transport/program stream option. I have it set to program as specified by Bloomberg.
Thanks in advance
J

The only setting that I could find in compressor that lets your change the bitrate to 44.1 is when you create a new dolby digital setting and then under the inspectors audio tab/Target System button, change the button to Generic AC-3. When done, you can change the Sample Rate to 44.1.
Hope this helps?

Problem with audio sample rate when exporting

I am having an issue with my audio sample rate. For some reason it is set at 8 khz by defualt when I am exporting. This was not an issue until the latest update (2 weeks ago). I'll try and give all the info I can up front. Also I tried customer support...that was a nightmare.
Ok the issue I am addressing is that the audio sample rate when exporting is at 8khz by default. Which to my knowledge has NO relevant use what so ever. Even when I set the file format to h.264 it insists on resetting to 8khz. Even if I manually set everything look at the render queue and click on output module again it changes the sample rate back to 8 khz automatically which I must adjust again. Why can it not just be set at 48000 like every other adobe product is and like it used to be two weeks ago. Does anybody have an answer?

This problem is addressed by the After Effects CC (12.2.1) bug-fix update, which is now available:

Note the part at the end of that page about a crucial update for the Creative Cloud desktop application, which addresses some severe problems with AME, Premiere Pro, and After Effects.
