Link Video w/ audio on import

Hi,
I am an Adobe starter. When I imported all my reels from an Avid project to Premiere, I got avi-video-viles and wav-audios, i can load them into the cut window but in the preview/source screen I can only either see the picture OR hear either one of my audio tracks. How do I link both so that I can both see and hear my material in preview before i decide what to cut into my new sequence?
Nik

You're welcome. Happy editing.
You will also find links to many free tutorials in the PremiereProPedia that will quickly show you how things are done in Premiere Pro.
Cheers

How to link video and audio channels of multiple clips

Importing iMovie08 sequence via XML ends up with unlinked video and audio channel (only one of the stereo channels; see other post).
It is possible to link each clips audio and video track individualy.
Is there a way to do it in batch mode for all the clips in de timeline??

1. After selecting the in points on main audio and one of two video tracks, the "merge clips" is greyed. Yes,in case you're wondering, the audio is on the HD.
Your use of language is confusing me I'm afraid. You opened the AIFF file and set an IN then opened a QuickTime movie and set and IN and then with them both selected in the Browser (and the Browser the active window) that you cannot select Modify->Merge Clips... ?
I wasn't wondering anything about your audio, but now I'm wondering "What does 'the audio is on the HD' mean?"
2. The other issue is that the starting point is silent, so the only I know how to find the actual beginning is by counting frames back from the first sound. Is that what I have to do? Is would seem to me that there must be a "marker" that's not and "in" or "out" that will allow me to merge the tracks. No?
If you set an IN point in two clips you can merge them using the Merge Clips... command with the in points option. The IN points you choose can be anywhere and for anything. They can be where the clapper hits and sounds, they can be where a drum stick hits a cymbal, they can be where someone is clapping, they can be where a body falls from a building onto the sidewalk... Anything that helps you sync the sound with picture.

Linked video and audio do not move together on timeline

Hello, I have been working in a project for a couple of days and cannot find out why the video and audio do not move together when one of them is dragged laterally on the timeline. They are linked yet do not move together. I seem to remember one of the first clips I dragged down to the timeline did what it should but they do not behave as they should. If I click on both clips the only option is unlink. When I move one part in the timeline it shows me how much they are out of sync.Any ideas?

Linking video to audio

Hi
I have an isight camera in my imac (never used it) & was wondering if i can record (just solo guitar possibly with vocal) using logic & somehow link it to video. To post on youtube or something like that.
Assuming my isight camera records video?
Cheers
Rob

In the top right corner of the timeline there are two tiny buttons. click the first one with two small oval shaped icons. It turns green. Now select the audio and video you want together and if they are not yet click Command + L while video and audio clips you want to link are selected. Now they should be linked!

How do I link video to audio in Imovie 11

If I've imported a sound track and placed it over existing audio/video, is there a way for my to link the audio to the video and, then, edit (e.g. trim segments) both as thouh they were one?

These are the people to ask: https://discussions.apple.com/community/ilife/imovie

No video, only audio when importing .avi file into CS2

I recorded 920p footage on a GoPro Hero 3 at 50fps. GoPro recordes MP4 files, I wanted to edit the footage in PP CS2 as it gives me more control than GoPro studio.
I used GoPro Studio to convert the MP4 files into avi files and amended the white balance and saturation etc, as I recorded using Pro Tune which gives a flatter colour profile.
The avi files run well in Windows Media Player (although don't seem to have the clarity of video's on the GoPro website!)
I have then imported the avi files into CS2 to put together the edit and I can only hear the audio and can't see the video in the source stream or the program stream.
I assume I have a setting wrong in CS2, could any one advise what I need to change to get the problem rectified?
I was planning on exporting the finished problem at 720p if makes a differance

Also, CS2 has a different forum http://forums.adobe.com/community/premiere/premierepro_previous

Re-linking video and audio

Hi,
I had to take a clip I captured and fix it because the audio went out of sync after the camera began filming again for some reason. So I had to take the clip and move the audio over by one second. How do I re-link the audio and video after cutting it so that it is one clip and it is easier to cut without having to worry about both audio and video separately?
Thanks

Select both your audio and video clips. Press Shift & L keys.

Nikon 5200 video problems no video only audio after import

Recently I bought a Nikon 5200 and when I import the h.264 footage all i get is a audio and a black screen. How can I import this properly. I have seen a bunch of ******** about paying for some convereter but I dont think anything as streamlined as these two should have a problem like this

The available bandwidth is not sufficient for you to full multi chats, but you have enough to join by audio only. This means you need a little more bandwidth, try to close iTunes and other B.W. dependent devices (like game console)s should be shut down.
Try to let the other party invite you to join the chat instead of you hosting it by initiating the chat.

Linking Video & Recorded audio

Hey all,
My most recent production I decided to capture audio separately using a field recorder rather than hooking the sound directly to the camera.
This project has a lot of video and sound files, all logged separately. Is there any way that I can sync up the audio and video for each clip before I start editing them together in the timeline?

Hi -
You can make the separate audio and video clips into synced "Merged Clips".
In FCP, go the menu Help > Final Cut Pro Help and select Final Cut Pro 7: User Manual. When that loads, search for: "Using Synchronization Points to Create Merged Clips"
It will explain the whole process, and it will do exactly what you want.
Hope this helps.

Video and audio linking problem, and others?

So, I am having 2 main problems. When I first started using FCE everything was great. Then, I changed some settings, and for some reason, it doesn't work like I want it to. So, my first problem is linking. When I import, it is automatically unlinked, but I think FCE thinks that it is! When I do press Apple L (shortcut to link video and audio) it still isn't linked! How can I get it to link?
My 2nd problem may be linked to the first. When I want to make a cut right on the playhead, it is really hard to get it on the playhead. Previously, it would just snap on the playhead if I got close, and now it doesn't! How can I get it to snap better?
Thanks for all the help!

1) Make sure linking (Shift-L) is turned on before you add your clip to the timeline. To manually link audio tracks to your video tracks select the two and go to +Modify > Link+ (Command-L).
2) Make sure snapping is turned on in the timeline. Hit the "N" key to toggle it on or off.

Cannot import video and audio

cannot import video with audio
can import audio but with no video

Are you using FCP for the first time?
Have you ever had files that imported correctly?
What format are the files you're importing and where did they come from?
What are your system specs?

Linking All Video and Audio Clips at Once

I'm running the most recent version of Premiere CC 2014 on OSX.
Somehow I accidentally unlinked every video and audio track on my timeline (I didn't make them offline - I unlinked them so that they select independently on my timeline when I want linked video and audio from the same clip to select simultaneously).
I don't want to have to go through my entire timeline and re-link every clip. Is there a way to easily select all media and link it? I've tried highlighting everything, right clicking and selecting "Link," but this hasn't worked.
Any tips would be appreciated.

I have to start you from the beginning to make sure everything is set correctly.
Under the Edit menu, make sure "Linked Selection" is checkmarked (also Shift+L).
Once that is done, make sure the video clip is linked the it's corresponding audio in the timeline. Do this by selecting them all, and choosing "Link" under the Modify menu (or hitting command + L).
Try that and if it doesn't work we'll go from there.

Video clips missing after import Please advise

I am new to this whole video editing and just learning. Before taking it to an editor I tried to import a DVD I had transferred from a VHS tape. All the video os on the DVD that was made but when i convert took the DVD and imported it I am missing about 5 minutes of footage that I needed.
I read by using the disk utility and selecting the disk and then select new image it was able to transfer into readable files for Imovie. But in the import window there is a time stamp that says 9:58 seconds but I am still missing several minutes of video. What am I doing wrong.

Hello again,
I just converted one of the H.264 QT movies to 'Apple Intermediate' and now the both video and audio assets import just fine.
So, I must assume that the problem has something to do with H.264, but any light that can be shed on this would be appreciated.
Cheers,

Can you link Audio to any video in time line so it functions as if you imported a video with audio?

Hi there...
I have video and I also have externally recorded audio to sync with it. Now I understand that you can drag the video in (delete its audio if it has any) and then drag a audio clip into the timeline and place it under neath it. I can get it synced and all that fine.
The problem I have is that it is cumbersome to edit like this. When you import a video with embedded audio if you make a cut it cuts the video AND the audio attached to it in one go. If you do it the way I am doing now you need to add extra cuts on the audio file as well. So you effectively doubling the clicks needed to edit. Also when you are deleting clips and sliding stuff about you need to be extra careful to make sure that the audio and video stays in sync.
What I am hoping for is a way to "attach" the audio to the video with out adding a long and time consuming process of rendering out a video file with it embedded.
Solutions I have tried and failed.
GROUP : This seams like the obvious thing to do.. If I group them I can select them as one, move them as one.. but if I select the cut tool it still only cuts either the video or audio.. not both.
SEQUENCE : The other option I tried is once it is synced I make a new sequence and add the sequence with the synced audo and video to it and then edit on that. I am not editing a sequence not the raw audio and video. The problem here is that while now the cut tool cuts both the video AND audio at once and I can also move and edit easily.. the problem is that now the wave form dose not show up in the audio track when you expand it. It is just a big blank green box (even though there is audio in the original sequence)
Any ideas?
Thanks

I'm still using Cs6.... I found that if you hold shift+click with the cut tool it cuts it.. I'll try link as shifting is a pain...
Maybe there is a way to set teh shift+click as the default action for the cut tool?

FR: Keep Video and Audio clips Linked in Multicam once razored

Here is my feature request, if you agree please cut and paste and submit to feature request!
https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
*******Enhancement / FMR*********
Brief title for your desired feature:
Keep Video and Audio cuts in a Multicam sequence linked together when using the razor tool.
How would you like the feature to work?
Whether inside a multicam created sequence, or a multicam sequence that has been pasted into another layer on a separate sequence, I want the video and audio to remain linked together when a cut is made. Currently, when I make a cut, the audio and video become unlinked and I have to first a. make all the razor cuts, then b. go and relink the video and audio clips back together. Takes an extra 30 minutes every time now.
Why is this feature important to you?
To save time and stop the long redundant process of click selecting the video and audio and linking them, over and over and over, in a multicam sequence. Obviously if I can do it manually, it can also be done in-program.

When you create the multicam sequence manually (still the best way, I think), video and audio remain linked.
