Ipad background audio from video when multitasking

Hello.
This is a request if people can either feedback On their present experience or try this out themselves first and feedback.
I have an ipad 1. When ever i try to get background audio to play from video when multitasking in another app, eg safari, from any video app including plex, airvideo, vlc, and the original apple video app. All that occurs is that the icon changes to the ipod and a random song is played from my music library instead of the audio from the video i was watching. This does not matter if the video file is streamed or stored on the ipad itself.
There is one slight and occasional proviso to this, as at times if the video file is tagged in itunes as 'music' rather than 'movie' or 'tv show' etc then it does on occasions work, and on occasions youtube videos will play in the background. But most of the time these aspects also dont function int he background with the ipod icon instantly replacing which ever video app icon i tried to use in the background.
Now my sons iphone 4 manages to function correctly and always plays video in the background when multitasking.
I have asked this question before on this forum, with no response, so booked a visit to my local genius bar. Where they checked my ipad and agreed it wasnt working as ios should, then interestingly they attempted to do the same on an ipad 2 and it failed to work in exactly the same way. Their response was that this was obviously a fault of the ipad ios, possibly due to the ipad having a separate video app where as the iphone has video within its generic ipod app.
I did the usual by informing apple via of this bug through the feedback system, and requested that the genius bar do the same. But having thought about this, and failed to see any other users on this forum who are also puzzled at this lack of what i think is an important function, i wonder if this means that i am the only one who likes to listen to video when im browsing, so dont need it, or wether everyone elses ipads function as ios should do, and for some reason both my ipad, and the ipad 2 tested in the shop are at fault.
So can i request if others reading this can have a go to see if their ipad will play background audio from video when multitasking, or if the same problem occurs.
Thanks very much this is really appreciated.

Oops clicked the wrong button, I meant to click a 'helpful answer' as it hard to have a correct answer to such a question.
But thanks for the replies.
It looks like this is a bug in ios solely for the ipad, as it does work fine on the iphone although wonder which way the ipod touch will perform. interestingly it looks like i may also be in the minority of wishing to listen to video files as I browse:)
Which probably means apple may never get around to sorting it, as no one else uses the function.
Anyway thanks for the replies, if any one else wants to see the bug have a go and comment, i find it funny how I seem to be the only one to have found it to date.

Split audio from video doesn't split video at the same point ?

When I split the audio from a video in GarageBand I would like the video to be split at the same point (so that I can insert audio in between without everything getting out of sync).
Is this possible?
(I don't want to use iMovie since that turns my 150 MB mov file into a 8 GB file..take ages to import)
The reason I want to insert audio in between video fragments is that I am creating an audio description of a tv series for a blind friend. I watch the video, pause that, and describe. Then continue.
If I can split both the video and "audio from video" at the same point and drag those to the right, so there's room to record something in between (then in the end I'll just drag it all so that the parts join up, delete the video and merge the audio. I hope.)
Thanks in advance!!

I figured out how to reset the Youtube video upon hiding thanks to Heathrowe's answer and FigFrance's contribution to the thread found here:
https://forums.adobe.com/message/4979969#4979969
The secret was adding .empty() to my video container. Here is my functioning button code:
Show Video:
//code to embed youtube into symbol
var youtube = $("<iframe/>");
sym.$("video").empty().append(youtube);
youtube.attr('type', 'text/html');
youtube.attr('width', '640');
youtube.attr('height', '360');
youtube.attr('src', 'https://www.youtube.com/embed/MyFv6UKsW70?rel=0');
youtube.attr('frameborder', '1');
youtube.attr('allowfullscreen', '0');
// Show an element
sym.$("video").show();
Hide Video:
sym.$("video").empty();
// Hide an element
sym.$("video").hide();

Removing Audio From Video (Problem 2) !!!HELP!!!

I have succesfully managed to remove audio and add new audio to an (avi) video. However, when I tried to do the same thing with an new (mpeg) video/ soundtrack. Logic did not allow me to extract audio from video or give me the option to de-select audio tracks when bouncing. So when I extract video with audio I get the old audio track plus the new audio combined. Is it do with the video format? can I convert video formats in logic? many thanks, Ben.

open in quicktime, then click save as and save as a .mov file. This should work. Not sure why this is happening though. Let me know if this works...
Please remember the helpful and solved problem....

Extracting audio from video clip to use as narration?

Hi there,
I have a video clip in which I want to take the audio of actor speaking and put it onto another video.
I.e. he is speaking about walking in the park. I want to take him speaking about walking in the park and put it onto the clip where he is actually walking in the park.
How do I do this in premiere elements 10?

Hi Bill,
Thanks for the quick response. I guess my question now is how would I do those two things?
In terms of exporting the audio, where can I find that option when I'm on timeline?
What do you mean by "Alt-click" and what is a "muxed file"?
Thanks again,
Mallory

Welcome to the forum. There are several ways to accomplish this, and your choice might well rest on how you like to work, and what you are doing, such as Deleteing Video. First, you could Export/Share just the Audio as a PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit, from your Timeline, and Import that into a New Project, where the Audio WAV file would be used. OTOH, you could Atl-click on the Video portion of the muxed file, and Delete the Video, leaving only the Audio portion. Good luck, Hunt

Can imovie for ipad receive audio from wireless headset

can imovie for ipad receive audio from wireless headset? i have a logitech wireless made for ipad?

1 - Imovie for iPad is made to work with video shot with an IOS device. You would have to make sure it's compatible
2 - Export the movie to your camera roll. Connect to computer and import just like you would from any camera.
3 - it exports an MOV file, h.264 encoding (720P)
4 - Yes you can export a project and continue to work on it on the Mac, make sure you have the latest version.

If all you want is to create a backup of some file you can do:public class Foo
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Foo f = new Foo();
        f.createBackup("something.xls");
    public void createBackup(String inFile) {
        FileInputStream in = null;
        FileOutputStream out = null;
        try {
            in = new FileInputStream(inFile);
            out = new FileOutputStream(inFile + ".bak");
            int read;
            while ((read = in.read()) > -1) {
                out.write(read);
            out.flush();
        } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } finally {
            if (in != null) {
                try {
                    in.close();
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
            if (out != null) {
                try {
                    out.close();
                } catch (IOException e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();

Separate audio from video - I want BOTH an audio and video file

Hi,
I would like to separate audio from video - I want BOTH an audio and video file.
I don't think this can be done without additional software, but if it can, pointing me in the right direction would be much appreciated.

You need Quicktime 7.6 Pro. Control+J to bring up the property window. In the property window is an extract button. Click on either the video or audio and click to the extract button.
You'll find Quicktime 7 in your Utilities folder. If Quicktime 7 isn't install in the Utilities folder you need to install it from you OS installation disk, in the optional installations folder.
If you don't have Quicktime Pro you need to buy it from the Apple store.

Splitting Audio From Video

Hello
I'm having trouble splitting audio from video. I currently have Final Cut Pro 6 from the final cut studio package, and my issue is that my audio is not synchronized with my video. The audio is coming in too early for the video and the voices of the people in the video do not match up. How can I fix this problem? How can I move the audio without moving the video as well?

Select the clip and hit command L to separate the tracks.
The real issue is why the footage is out of sync.

Is it possible to play audio from video in the background while using a different app?

I would like to be ale to play audio from a video file in videos (or av player hd) in the background whie using a diffent app in my iPad 2. (ie watching a video while taking notes on the content or highlighting an e-textbook).
Is this possible? Either through the original iPad functionality or by downloading a separate app?
Thanks,
mji

Is it important that the music come from a video, or are you just looking to listen to music in the background, while doing something else. If the later, you can certainly play music from the Music App, Pandora, or iHeart Radio, etc., and with the music playing, tap your home button to go to your home page and open anything else you want and the music will continue.
I don't have any videos to try out right now, but you try the same thing out and if the music continues, it works. If it doesn't, it doesn't.

Recording Audio from Video Tape

Hi! I want to record audio from a video tape and put the audio into my imovie. I have done this funtion before, but I can't seem to remember how! I am able to play the movie (the video tape) in a VCR which then goes through my "bridge" (DV Converter) and into the computer. When I open imovie and import the video and audio into a "clip", I can't seem to play the clip and record the "audio" in the audio section. Again, I have done this before, I just don't remember how. Can anyone help??

Hi Kim - welcome to the forum!
You would simply extract the audio from the clip - select it, then go Advanced>Extract Audio (Command J). This will place the audio in the top audio track. Then you can delete the clip, and move the extracted audio to wherever you want it.
Does that help?

Separating audio from video track

I'm going to try and download video from a camcorder to iMovie for the first time. I recorded a kids concert with my camcorder and want to separate the audio from the video to burn just the audio onto a CD. How do I do that?

I don't want to burn the entire soundtrace of what I recorded, just one song of the performance I recorded.
I can only tell you what I would probably do in your situation:
1) I would import only the portion i wanted. You should be able to do this by using the iMovie '08 manual option setting. Simply plug in your camcorder and when the Import window opens, set the "manual" switch. Press the "Fast Forward" button on your camcorder to move the tape to the approximate location of the content you want. Press the "Stop" button, switch to the "Play" mode and press and hold the "Fast Forward" and/or "Rewind" controls on your camcorder to locate a point on your tape just prior to the song you want. As soon as your release the "Fast Forward" or "Rewind" camcorder button, press the "Import" icon in the iMovie '08 "Import" window to begin your actual capture. When the song ends, press the "Done" icon in the iMovie '08 "Import" window to terminate capture. At this point you can close iMovie '08 as soon as it will let you do so.
2) Locate the "Event" folder to which the clip was imported and move the file to your desktop or other convenient location on your hard drive. If this was the only clip in the "Event" folder, you can delete the "Event" folder. If you imported the clip to an "Event" folder in use, delete Thumbnail/Cache folders to force iMovie '08 to re-generate the "Event" folder contents without the clip you just moved.
3) Open your clip in either QT Pro or MPEG Streamclip. Trim your clip by using the Left/Right arrow keys to move the playhead to the exact frame you wish to begin your audio recording and press the "I" ("In") key. Now drag the playhead to the end of the clip and use the Left/Right arrow keys to locate the exact frame where you wish to terminate your audio recoding and press the "O" ("Out") key. The progress bar should now reflect the "trimmed" content designated for conversion.
4) Now convert your file to audio. In QT Pro, select the "Sound to AIFF" File menu Export option. In MPEG Streamclip, select the "Export Audio..." File menu option which should default to "AIFF" but can be reset to MP3 is so desired. At this time simply select your destination location and press the "OK" or "Save" button for whiever application you are using to begin your conversion.
5) Burn the resulting file to CD using whatever utility/work flow is normal for you.

Close Captions can't see audio from video file

Trying to close caption a video file using Slide Notes in Captivate 5. Inserted Video via Insert>Slide Video, added notes via Slide Notes and checked off cc box. When I go to Audio dialog (Audio > Record > to Slide), my notes show up only as notes, the captions tab is empty. No audio is displayed for the slide (because it is expecting me to record or import some audio).
From what I've read, this audio dialog box is where I synch my slide notes as captions, but I can't see any audio or video synch reference at all -- even duration / frame count would work.
Do I need to import a separate mp3 version of the movie to synch to?
Any suggestions?

I figured it out - typical obvious error on my part. If I'm captioning a MOVIE, I need to adjust the timing via the Video tab, not the audio tab.
