Last second of audio?

I have a 30 second spot I'm editing for and finally cut it down to the very frame. It is 30 seconds perfect, unfortunately, when watching the rendered file my last second is clipped off. Is this a export setting? I've exhaustively searched the internet, but with no luck.
Any and all help would be appreciated.

Great news!
I do agree with Jeff. If you can state the player, that exhibited this behavior, that might help others, who find this thread, and will also arm many of us with something else to mention, should we encounter such an issue, here or elsewhere.
Thanks, and good luck,
Hunt

Last second of audio clip is silent.

I have been getting this bug recently and its really starting to annoy me.
Almost daily I have to work on 30 second spots on AE and when I get sent an audio scratch track that is 30 seconds long I import it and when I play it back it plays fine until the last second where it just mutes. If I play this same file in any other program it plays fine. Im on CS5 on Mac OS X 10.6.3. The same file has no issue on a PC CS5 and we have no other Mac CS5 to test with. The files are created in Avid Media Composer then saved as a wav and sent to me. Even if I convert it it gives me problems.

It happens if I ram preview, or audio only preview, and even when I render out the file. If I look at the waveform its also gone. A curious thing is that when I get a full mix from out audio post house, the audio works fine, even though both files are 16 bit 48k. Im not sure what you mean by what are my preview setting set to. Also, I have an AJA Kona 3 card in my system and almost anything I import says AJA Importer in the "Type" column in my Project window, including these WAVs or AIFFs.

.m4a Audio files clipped at last second or two.

Whenever I import .m4a files into Premiere Pro CS3, which otherwise play fine anywhere else, the last second or so is cut off. If I convert the song to .WAV BEFORE importing, all is well. The PrProCS3 user guide does not explicitly indicate .m4a file type as supported. Is this the reason? Any thoughts or knowledge?
I'm using Windows Vista 32-bit.

The IDEA of Premiere editing any type of compressed file (be it video or audio) has been discussed, literaly, hundreds of times here
The bottom line is that the actual FACT of editing this type of file, in spite of what Adobe says in their marketing materials, is that some people have success... and other people do NOT
Some of this is attributed to whatever else (ie-codecs) is installed on the computer... and in what order (each time a codec is installed it puts an entry into the Registry to say that IT is "most important" and should be "seen first" in the list of codecs) and that can cause problems for Premiere, even with files that "should" work
So... as you have found... convert to WAV

Videos (flash) freezes several times a minute for a few seconds but audio continues fine. Normal browsing also freezes the same way.

After watching more than one video (for example, on YouTube) my browser will "freeze" for several seconds. This happens about 3 or 4 times per minute while:
* watching another video, the video will freeze for several seconds, while audio keeps playing
* browsing other NON-video websites, the browser freezes for several seconds
* scrolling down a long web page the browser will freeze for several seconds; since I'm in the middle of scrolling, when it stops freezing I'm somewhere completely random on the page instead of being able to just smoothly scroll through the page
The only way I can get the freezing to stop is by closing down the entire browser (losing all of the sites I may have open for research, other videos I might have queued up to watch, etc.)
As you can well imagine, this is whole encounter is totally frustrating and annoying, and is making me want to try to find a better browser. I see that MANY, MANY other people have been having this problem, and yet I am still unable to find an actual solution. This was NOT happening before the last FireFox update.

Disable hardware acceleration.
Perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]

Second System Audio

Okay, so I edited my movie using the camera audio. But we actually shot second system audio along with the camera audio (ran the mic to both the camera and a hard drive audio recorder). The video is locked. No more video editing. Unfortunately, I didn't have the second system audio in my hands before video editing needed to get started.
So, does anyone know of some simplified, not horribly time-consuming, method for replacing the camera audio with the second system audio? And, of course, keeping it in sync.

FYI, it wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be or people made it sound. Whole process took me 3 hours and a chunk of that was spent trying to figure out which track was from the second system audio vs the camera audio. Once the clips were merged, there wasn't really a way to tell just by looking at them. Another chunk was spent putting in some room tone and tweaking things.
I just merged the audio to the video. Put it in a garbage sequence. Set my in and out points to match the original edit. Copied over the new audio track to where the old had been. Boom. Done. FCP even knew if I messed it up and the new audio was out of sync with the video and displayed the + or - # of frames.
As for bad planning, it wasn't. The camera doesn't do time code. Period. There was no option to have any and it wasn't needed. The only thing I suppose we could have planned better was not having our audio guy suddenly having to go to the mideast for 3 months. Then we would've merged the audio and video up front. Probably would've been zero time savings when you consider that you'd merge takes you wouldn't ultimately use.
Just thought I'd put it out there for anyone else who may need to know.

Loading 0.5 seconds of audio data into a numerical array

Hi everyone,
I'm new to Java programming, and I'm trying something a little complicated. I wish to use Java to listen to a microphone or line in port and wait for the input signal to reach positive saturation.
When the signal has saturated, I would then like to record the next 0.5 seconds of audio data samples into a numerical array.
Please may somebody explain how I can achieve this, if it is possible.
After that, I know what I want to do with the numerical array and how to do it.
Thank you to everyone who can help.

A simple google with "java audio input" as the arguments will result in host of information for you... this one, the very first one, is possibly one you should pay particular attention to:

Less than a second of audio on 2 of my audiobooks

Before I left on vacation, I added 3 audiobooks to my IPod. I listened to and finished one of the audiobooks on the trip but when I went to start the next one, I only got less than a second of audio and the counter was stuck at 10 seconds. The same thing happened with the other audiobook. I tried to restart my IPod but that didn't work. When I got home I checked the audiobooks and both of them started up as if nothing happened. I don't know what to do.

yep. Time for a new phone. That one's cooked.

First four seconds of audio missing when exporting project as MPEG2

Hello all-
When I export my project from FCP (using version 6.0.6) using Compressor's (v. 3.0.5) MPEG2 Program Stream setting, everything works fine except for one slight problem: the first four seconds of audio are missing. I've looked back over my timeline (NTSC-DV with 4 tracks of 48khz 16bit audio), everything is fine, and the audio exported just fine using the H.264 codec. I've tried everything I can think of. Any suggestions?
Thanks so much,
Brett

Well I REALLY need some help with this one! I have tried so many different 'work arounds' without success. As mentioned in my first post the audio is not sync'ing with the video when exported. I have tried Exporting the file in QuickTime, I have tried using Compressor again exporting just the video then the audio - pulling it into a new session and lining it up again but everytime I pull it the newly exported file into a new project and render it FCP crashes not allowing it to render (nice!). I actually started from square one capturing the video footage again and assemble the project again without luck. I simply cannot believe what a pain in the arse this is!! I need to get this project done and it simply won't do it.
Where are my blood pressure pills????

Video/Film download error in the last seconds of download

Every time I try to download a film or TV program of a relatively large size, in the very last seconds the downloads stops with error-50.
I have tryed deleting the unfinished download from my itunes download folder and restarting the download, but the same thing happens over and over again.
I have been able to download TV programs and videos of smaller size with no problems.
Any suggestions?

Videos freeze after 5-7 seconds, no audio at all - Google Chrome

Win7 x64
Google Chrome 21.0.1180.60 m
Flash version 11.3.31.222
My os is 64-bit, but the "what version of flash are you running" window says it's 32-bit. Which strikes me as odd. Anyway,
Problem is basically laid out in the subject. No matter what video I try to play, it freezes after a few seconds. There is no audio whatsoever. I tried the uninstall (using the uninstaller) I found in another Flash forum, but it didn't help. As a matter of fact, running the uninstaller made no difference at all. Videos still played for a few seconds, sans audio, then froze.
Is there a fix for this? It only started happening yesterday.
Update: Also happens in Firefox. IE works fine.

Our Chrome browser not only automatically updates it's version (21.0.1180.60m) without notice , but the Shockwave Flash (11.3.31.222/ 11.3.300.268) plugins too!!!
I had to disable 11.3.31.222 along w. 11.3.300.268 and have 11.2 r202 (11.2.202.235) solely enabled again because this time, i had 'shockwave plugin unresponsive' at some websites that stalled pages, and of 11.3.300.268., 'unresponsive shockwave plugin' refused to play YT.
*type: chrome://plugins in address bar in chrome - click the + on the top right
And enable/disable plugins
I think d/l's here might very well work: http://www.oldapps.com/flash_player.php
or, directly
(Although it seems some are not happy w. crashing browsers and such with 11.3.300.268 version!?)

Last seconds of uploaded podcast are cut off! What could be the problem here?

Hello!
we uploaded some podcasts in our itunes store account. We produced them by ourselves and they are also online on our website (futurzwei.org). The source is the same Content Management System (Joomla). At the website, the podcasts are complete. In the itunes store, the same podcasts are incomplete. The last seconds are cut off!
How can this be, when the original is complete?
I don't know where the problem could be.
Can it be a problem of the transfering mode?
Is it a problem of the Content Management System we use? Or any special setting we could have set wrongly in there?
Of the format the podcasts have (normal mp3)?
Thank you very much for any help!

Flash 8 - missing first few seconds of audio

I have a flash 8 swf that only contains a single flv file and
uses the
flvplayback component as it's controller. It's not a
particularly big
video.
When it starts, the video appears, but the first few seconds
of audio are
missing.
Any ideas?

My conclusion is that the iPhone 4 is letting the connection with the Bluetooth device lapse when not in active use for some length of time, and it takes a few seconds to re-establish it.
That's the way it works, & your conclusion is correct. There is no solution, unfortunately, other than not use Bluetooth for this.

Latest iTunes update restarts track when pressing pause in the last seconds of play

When I updated to the last version of iTunes (might have been earlier, haven't used it like that in some time) the program started doing a very annoying thing: if you pause a track in the last seconds (I think it's 3) it rewinds it to the very start. I'm constantly reviewing and rating songs I get sent so I'm used to pausing the songs in the last seconds. But now it won't resume where I left it but restart completely. Anybody else noticed that? Is it just me or all the latest iTunes updates have only brought annoying things like this on board? Any idea how to overcome that?

Have experienced the same problem with iTunes 11.1.3 on both Mac and Windows. Very annoying.

When a "P" word is spoken - the following one second of audio is lost

I have an audio track inside finalcut express that is fine. But after i create a dvd w iDVD, the following problem occurs - when a "P" word is spoken - like "pose" - the following one second of audio is lost and then fades back in - it sounds fine inside express - only when i export and then use iDVD does this effect occur. It is obviously encoding - but what can i adjust inside express, my export settings or in iDVD to make this work?

I would suspect the audio is too hot on the P points. That is typical of a mic too close to the subject and the subject is not mic aware. That's one reason those foam or furry things are on mics to minimize this type of thing.
What do the audio meters say in FCE?
If the very top indicators are lit you will have to drop the audio on those points. That says the audio is clipping (can't handle it).
FYI: Audio levels in FCE should be set to hover around -12db on the FCE digital meters. -12 db in FCE equates to 0 db in the analogue world.
