JVC Everio Audio Quality After Import

I filmed quite a bit of video using my companies JVC Everio in full HD 1920x1080. The camera natively shoots in .tod format. I flipped it to .avi using AVS Video Converter. Both files play fine in VLC player, and they look just fine. After importing into premiere, the videos will barely play, and are super laggy. They video doesn't match up to the audio in the source window at all. I'll set in and out points, and only the video will go to the sequence in the timeline. Once I drag the audio and match it up to the video i just dragged, the audio doesn't match. I have to manually fix it. Even still, the audio sounds HORRIBLE. Again, it sounds just fine in VLC player, it's only after I import it that it made a womans voice sound slightly deeper, and just terrible quality. Am I doing something wrong in the import? Are there some sequence settings I need to change? I can fix most of the video problems, I can even deal with manually adjusting the placement of the audio and video after each insert of video from the source moniter, but I simply cannot deal with the loss of quality from the audio. Please help, I'd love to provide any additonal information about the system or project settings.

You sir are a genius.
Hahaha... not a chance.

Poor Quality After Importing Video

Has anyone noticed that the quality is poor after importing a DV file to iMovie? If so, is there any way to fix this or avoid the problem altogether

I think it may depend on the video camera. Some video cameras have this happen when used with iMovie. When I import video from my JVC Everio directly into iMovie '11, the video comes in very out of focus. I have to use the steps outlined on this page to get the video into iMovie '11 properly.

Very Poor Quality after Importing from Time Machine

I lost iMovies for some reason when I upgraded to Maverick. I imported my iMovie events from Time Machine into iMovie 10 but the quality is now horrible. Anyone know how to correct this? DO I have to import a differnet way?
Gratefully yours, Daniel

I'm not quite clear exactly how you imported - if your events were from iMovie 9 the correct procdure would be first to recover your iMovie Events and iMovie Projects folder from Time Machine.
You would then check that they open OK in iMovie 9 (which you should still have available in your Applications folder).
When this OK you can close iMovie 9, open iMovie 10 and update your media into iMovie 10.
See help at: http://help.apple.com/imovie/mac/10.0/#mov902ad0c31
If you have already done this, have you allowed time for iMovie 10 to re-render your clips in the background? (can take a long time). The quality immediately after importing may well be poor at first.

Poor audio quality when importing CDs (but only some of them)

I am experiencing a bizarre audio quality problem:
When playing or importing tracks from CDs into iTunes 9.0.2, on some CDs there is very poor quality and an audible crackling (like an old scratched lp)whereas on others the quality is perfect. This translates to the iPod as well.
I've looked all over the internet and am now thoroughly confused. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

If you are hearing it both on iTunes playback and on the iPod, it is probably an importing problem, i.e. the track is bad.
When you import, do your Import Settings use Error Correction? If not, turn it on and re-rip one of the problem tracks.

IPhone video with audio, but after import to iMac; no audio

I have an iPhone video I recored on my iPhone 5 with iOS 7.1.1. It plays just fine on the iPhone WITH sound just fine.
When I used Image Capture to bring it into my iMac OSX 10.9.2 the audio is silent. Quicktime Player shows an audio track, but when I play the video it is silent. Other movies play fine in Quicktime Player
Any ideas?

Anyone?
This seems crazy. The video is just Fine on my iPhone 5 iOS 7.1.1, but after import: no audio on Mac.

Very low audio quality after amber update

After installing amber update audio quality and volume has dropped significantly! Volume through speakers is alot lower, and when plugged into headphones audio lacks quality and depth. There is barely any bass and volume is very low, sounds like listening to a clock radio very disappointing, as audio quality on my 920 was very very good the best of any phone so far before amber update!

i haven't noticed that with my 920. have you tried performing a soft reset and also check that you are up to date with all the latest Nokia system app updates from the Store?

Poor audio quality after exporting to .MOV.

Voiceover in my video sounds crystal clear in the timeline but then thin and "rattley" after export when playing back with Quicktime player. Background music on other tracks always seems to be unaffected. Audio export set to AAC, 48 kHZ, Stereo. I must export to a Quicktime .mov format because it's the only file type that I can upload to YouTube without the color quality being distorted after upload. Adobe Updater says all of my programs are updated.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

How did you record the VO? is it a mono or stereo track, how are you viewing the export. Sometimes when just one section of the audio is wrong it is due to audio phase problems, I have not seen this with a vo before but it might be the issue. See:
Re: 1 of 2 audio tracks missing on certain browsers (h.264)

Poor audio quality when importing. Help?

Hello, everyone!
I have been having trouble importing videos recently, as it sounds good when played outside of premiere, but as soon as I import it into the program, the audio loses 70, maybe 80% of its quality immediately.
The video format is AVI and the audio qualiy is 128kbps, 2 stereo channels, at a 44kHz audio sampling rate.
The video (don't know if this matters, but can't hurt) has a data rate of 200kbps, 328 bits @ 29FPS.
I've tried everything in order to match the project pre-definitions and the sound input, with no success at all. It always sounds bad and I don't know what to do anymore.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Well, it says in the properties "2 stereo channels" but Premiere seems to identify it as mono for some reason. Tried creating mono and stereo projects, didn't help.

Unexpected Audio Dropout After Importing MP3 Into FCE-HD

I've imported a song into a FCE-HD project, but after rendering it, I keep hearing tiny breaks in the music. I went back and played the original mp3 in iTunes... perfectly clean. I'm up against a hard deadline today. Any ideas?

Matthew
Mp3 is not the format FCE likes.
Use iTunes to convert the song to aiff format that has the same audio rate as the FCE sequence. That's either 48 or 32 kHz.

Overall audio quality after 2.1 update

I updated to 2.1 when it first came out and overall, the phone has performed better with fewer dropped calls. However, is it my imagination or did the audio call quality suffer? This is most noticeable when using a BT headset or receiving calls from other iPhone users. The audio is clear but has a sharp edge to it.
Has anyone else observed this?
Thanks

I also got the same problem with voice quality. My friends cannot hear my voice clearly and always ask me repeat and repeat. One more thing, iPhone3G always pick up a lot of background noise. Because I used Motorola V9 which voice quality is better iPhone3G. I hope Apple can improve the voice quality soon, otherwise I need throw it away and use V9 again...

Blu-Ray 5.1 DD SS Audio Glitch after import into Encore.

Working on burning a full length blu-ray with two audio track options (stereo audio, 5.1 DD SS) I'm not having any problems connecting menu's or burning. After the initial burn everything was working flawlessly except when I played the video with the 5.1 DD track I noticed the audio would glitch at certain parts. The glitch sounds like a CD skipping (i.e the speaker would say Bubble and it would sound like Bu-Bu-Bubble) the audio doesn't go out of sync when this happens, it's small and the video keeps playing but it's still noticeable and an issue.
Both audio tracks are one complete track, no cuts or seperate clips. The 5.1 track is .ac3. The stereo track is mixed from the 5.1 track and doesn't have the glitch at all. I've gone back and checked the source audio and haven't noticed any transients or spikes at the places where it glitches. The problem occurs when I pull it into encore. Even before burning the audio will error inside the timeline preview. I'm not transcoding the audio or video at all as I have manually compressed the video already. Everything is perfect except for this glitch and I'm all out of ideas of what Encore is doing to the audio to create the skipping glitch any thoughts or ideas would be great. Hope i've given enough information. I'm new to the forum so please let me know if i've left anything out or missed any etiquette.
My system:
Encore CS4
FCP 7
Mac Pro 2 x 2.93 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon

Most likely he used Apple's Compressor, Bill - the system specs state FCP7 is being used.
Bitrate is a valid question though.....this should be no higher than 640kbps (and IMHO certainly no lower - DD sucks at the best of times)
Sorry for the long reply back guys. We had the audio work for this project outsourced so I had to await details to your questions. The bitrate is 457.67 kbps so the bit rate shouldn't be causing the issue. The audio was completely pre mixed in Pro Tools and they just sent us a ready to use .ac3 file. Hope this helps!
CAleb
Hey Caleb.
Thanks for the details -and that is probably your problem.
457.67kbps is nothing like DVD-Video compliant, and almost certainly not BluRay compliant either.
For BluRay, you should be using 448 or preferably 640kbps.
DVD uses either 448 or 384kbps Dolby Digital, and the figure you are giving is extremely odd, looking almost like a VBR encoding which DD should never, ever be. Using 384 gives you unidirectional content above 10kHz (IE, mono) and 448 gets it all the way up to around 14 or 15kHz before it goes unidirectional. In all frankness, there is no good reason at all to use Dolby Digital as it sucks - badly - and all BluRay players are required to decode at the very least DTS Core Audio (1536kbps) which is fully discrete all the way to 20kHz.
I think whoever you outsourced this to got the DD encoding wrong - simples!

Song Quality after importing from CD

Hi guys,
I bought my nano not long ago, and I'm still familiarizing with the iTunes.
The obvious problem that I have now is that the songs that I imported from CD using iTunes are all of bad quality, overlapping vocals & music.
Usually I import CD using windows media player, it may not be as good as other ripper program, but good enough. But importing with wma means I need a longer process to download songs to my iPod.
According to a friend of mine is about the iTunes setting, which I still can't figure out till now.
So, all the apple wacky out there pelase help.
thanks

If you import your audioCD to a format that has to be converted by iTunes this will result in a loss of quality.
Use iTunes itself to rip your audioCD and choose either AAC as codec or Apple Lossless.

Mpeg audio stutters after import - Premiere cs4.2.1

Hi,
I'm trying to import an MPEG video file into Premiere, but the audio does not come in clean. The source file plays fine through windows media player & VLC. I've been able to import other files ok, but the program seems to have problems if the audio uses Intensity Stereo. Has anyone come across this before? In the past I was able to import these fine into Premiere Elements - but have now changed to Pro. The stutter occurs both in playback through premiere and if I do export out the video.
I have tried installing other codecs and even tried to replace the ac3 dll - but that hasn't fixed the problem (nor did I really think that was the issue anyway).
Looking forward to seeing what might be the problem, or if I need to change my project settings.
Linda

When one Imports Audio (whether Audio-only, or muxed with Video), PrPro needs to Conform that source Audio, and will create CFA (the Conformed Audio) and PEK (Waveform Display) files. Then, one is actually editing the CFA, though that part is basically hidden "under the hood." If something gets in the way of the Conforming process, then corruption can occur.
I would go to the Media Cache, and just Delete the CFA and PEK files. This should probably be done in the OS. When you then Open your Project, the Conforming process should start, and you should see a little progress bar. Let this process complete 100%, and I would not even touch the computer, while it's on-going. When complete, test.
This ARTICLE goes into more detail on Conforming Audio.
Good luck,

Poor quality after import, frames misordered after import

I am creating some training videos user a a video screen capture software and then combining them on Premiere Pro. After I added the video, the video seemed to wobble back and forth between frames in that are current and frames that have passed already. So as the mouse pointer changes icon as it hovers over it different stuff it will go back and forth fro, frame to frame between it previous form and position to it's new form and position and as the website updates on the video it will wobble back and from from frame to frame to what it is loading and what it was. I thought maybe that was just real time rendering but when I exported the video it didn't solve the problem. I look back at the original video so smooth and flawless and wonder if I am doing something wrong.

The problem with most screen captures is often the codec used in the capture. Seems no one really makes a "video friendly" screen capture program (meaning the codec used is a standard camera format). That's probably because most computer screens aren't set at the required video dimensions to do a proper video-friendly screen capture.
Anyway, what did you use to capture the footage? What codec was used for the footage?
