Linking/Syncing Audio and Video

I think I'm just on the edge of understanding if this can work:
I have a rough cut of a few clips using on-camera audio. I also recorded with a separate audio recorder. I want to somehow link the secondary audio to the primary audio and the source video clips, so that the secondary audio will be added to the rough cut without me having to go and re-sync each edit with the corresponding secondary audio. Is it possible to sync additional audio to a source file and have it reflected in an edited sequence?

Lining up each camera clip with the associated audio in its own sequence and then editing using those sequences instead of the original clips is one of the better ways to proceed given your starting point.
Audio drift shouldn't be apparent over reasonable lengths of clip (say up to 10 or 20 minutes) depending on the stability of the clock in the audio device.  Many of the past reports were due to some manufacturers using slightly off-standard audio rates which Premiere then assumed to be correct and hence generated out-of-sync issues over around 30 minutes or more.  Not your problem here.
If, when you check the audio sync over a whole clip, you find it is OK at the start but out at the end, then setting a marker on both video and audio near the end and using rate stretch on the audio to change its length by a small amount to line up the markers should give good enough sync for the clip.

  • Syncing Audio and Video but wish for the Audio not to move on timeline?

    Has anyone worked out how to sync audio and video within Premiere Pro but have the Audio stay fixed on the timeline and the video move? Every way I try it Premiere Pro insists on moving the audio. Locking the track does not work as you cannot select the audio within it to Sync with.
    I have a music video shoot with 14 camera angles used on the lead singer (don't ask me why). Multi-camera editing is not an option as there are too many sources for my brand new MacbookPro to handle. I think I would need the computer from Superman II to edit that many clips together.
    What I am doing is syncing the first clip, the one Im going to use as the baseline fall back shot and then I need to sync other clips onto the timeline. However Premiere Pro insists on moving the audio to fit with the video not visa-versa.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    @slitchfield: on the mentioned page, it is stated that "Improvements in screen real estate, with slimmer top status bar and optional (in some apps) bottom toolbar, meaning that all phones will have a larger useful display area."
    But on the E6 the bottom toolbar decreases available screen size in most apps, most noticeable in Web browser where the full view has gone. The bottom toolbar is not optional, you can't configure it yourself.
    And: "Homescreen widgets will now come in up to five different sizes (1x1, 2x1, 4x1, 2x2, 4x4) and allow a greater degree of interactivity.", but on the E6 they are in only one size, always with large borders and other visual effects.
    So beware of differences between phones, perhaps some aspects of Belle work differently depending on the type of device.
    "Notes now brings up a white (and AMOLED-unfriendly...) editing screen.": that you can change by switching themes, "Dark Solid for Anna" does a good job. It is a shame that the lines of Notes have gone though.
    When switching themes, I found you have to restart the phone, otherwise the theme doesn't get properly loaded in all apps. Stopping/starting apps is not enough. So when experimenting and loading one theme after another, you may end up with disfunctional combinations of black-on-black and white-on-white, but it may not be due to the last theme. Also you may end up with a good combination that isn't around anymore the next time you restart your phone.

  • Syncing audio and video with timecode

    What is the best way to sync audio and video files from a one camera shoot on which the camera was jammed with timecode from the mixer? Is there a batch method? Is it best done with a third party application or within Premier?
    Camera is Canon C300
    Adobe Premier Pro CC
    Windows Operating system
    The project is a 15 page short film shot over four days. Lots of dialogue.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Is "merge assets" different from "merge..."? I see the timecode option in "merge...".
    Thanks

  • Issue - syncing Audio and Video Clips

    Hi Friends -
    Definitely, I am newbie for - editing in this application (Adobe Premier CS6) .
    My idea is to sync audio and video clip - 'based on clip markers' or 'based on Audio wave' .
    But, in my machine, I dont see option to 'add clip markers' (in Marker Menu) for these clips, which are supposed to merge. And, coming 'based on Audio wave' -  I dont even see those options, when I select (both clips to be merged) and choose merge.
    Am I missing any setting - Do I need to have any additional plugins for that? Can anyone pls. help regarding that.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Kireeti.

    The audio option wasn't added until Premiere Pro CC.
    You can set clip markers in the Source Monitor with the M key.

  • SUBCLIP CREATES OUT OF SYNC AUDIO AND VIDEO

    I have a problem which I hope someone out there can help me solve. I just recently upgraded to FCP 6.0.4.
    In attempting to create a subclip, I follow these steps: set in and out points for the clip on the timeline, select the video and audio, link the clip's video and audio, double click the clip from timeline to bring subclip into browser, make subclip (modify > make subclip).
    After naming the subclip, I double click on it to bring it into the browser for viewing. Here's where the problem comes in.
    The duration of the subclip is always much too long. I noticed that the subclip's in point is always incorrect. It is always the starting timecode of the audio from the timeline (e.g. 00:01:05:00). The ending timecode is always correct though (i.e. the out point).
    The subclip plays the audio at the beginning of the clip, but the video is blacked out until the very end of the subclip, at which time the audio is silent as it has already played out.
    Does anyone know why I'm getting these bizarre subclips and what I need to do to correct this problem?
    Your help is much appreciated.

  • Re-Syncing Audio and Video

    After capturing in FC Express I find all my audio/video is about 10 frames out of sync. Tape was shot on an old Canon XL and transfered to FCE on a Sony DV deck.
    My settings in Easy Set Up are DV NTSC Firewire Basic. Do you know if changing settings will make any difference on a new capture? 
    I am able to slip the audio 10  frames on each clip in the timeline but doing it every edit is a pain. Is there a way to advance audio or video 10 frames in the Viewer to do the whole hour of capture at one time. Thank you.

    It makes a difference if the audio is offset the same amount all through the video; or if it gradually drifts further out of sync over time.
    If it's a fixed offset I think your best bet is to place the entire captured clip on the timeline, unlink the audio from the video, slip the audio back into sync, then export the entire clip to a self-contained QT Movie; then re-import the exported QT file and use it for editing nstead of your original captured clip.
    If the audio drifts, you probably had a mismatch between your FCE easy setup and the actual audio recording on tape. This usually happens when the tape was recorded with 12-bit audio (aka 32KHz) but your easy setup is 16-bit audio (aka 48KHz).   It also happens sometimes when you record the video on one device but capture with a different device (eg Canon XL2 vs. Sony DV deck).  BTW, the NTSC Firewire Basic easy setup expects 48KHz audio.

  • Error while trying to sync audio and video.

    Suddenly out of the blue I'm have all sorts of problems with Logic 8. I keep getting the "error while trying to synchronize audio and midi" error message. Even when I'm just using using the audio side. Do you know of a local logic tech that could check out my system? Might be a problem with my motu 828mk11 audio interface or corrupt drivers, bad preferences. I'm unable to do any work in Logic until I get this problem solved.

    (Did you do any upgrades with the Firewire plugged in?)
    Usually a MOTU reset will fix this.
    Follow these steps to restore the 828mkII to Factory Default Settings.
    •Disconnect the firewire cable from the 828mkII
    •Press the Setup knob
    •Turn the Setup knob all the way to the right
    •Press the Select knob
    •Press the Value knob
    •Power off the interface and plug the firewire cable back in
    •Power the interface back on
    http://www.motu.com/techsupport/technotes/document.2004-06-16.6405589976/view
    If that doesn't work.
    1) Unplug ALL cables from the 828MkII.
    2) Double check that the power cord is really unplugged.
    3. Switch the voltage switch on the side from your setting (110 in the US) to the other setting and back a few times.
    4) Make sure you've set the voltage switch back to the right setting for your country.
    5) Plug everything back in.

  • Need help syncing audio and video

    Hello,
    I am fairly new to this Mac and Final Cut Pro. Over the weekend, I recorded some video and audio separately and am now attempting to piece them together. I can get the two in sync for about a minute and after that they no longer line up. I was told the root of the problem was that the sound was recorded at 32 bits and needs to be 16 bits to sync up with the video in FCP, however, after I rendered the sound clip and checked up on its settings, I discovered that it was 16 bits. So now I am completely stumped. Any ideas?
    Thank you.
    Jamie

    Seems like that person is a little lost on the subject.
    Do this. Open FCP, go into Audio Video settings under the Final Cut Pro menu, then click on the Sequence Presets tab. (Forget about an Easy Setup, because you are not capturing. Easy setup is only if you want to match capture settings to sequence settings and playback settings. You are only concerned with sequence settings.)
    In the Sequence settings tab, locate the Apple Pro Res 422 1920x1080 (or the corresponding aspect ratio for your footage), and press duplicate. Then, go into the duplicate setting and change the editing time base to 30 from 29.97, and change the timecode rate to Non-Drop frame. Label this something different so you know where to find it when you need it.
    Now, when you start a project, go into the A/V Settings and choose this as the Sequence preset. Make sure you convert your footage with either Compressor or MPEG Streamclip to ProRes 422 before you edit. Do NOT use the native H.264 files that the camera creates.
    The reason the blogger couldn't do it was because they were relying on Easy Setups. You can't set up a capture preset for 30 fps, because tape plays at 29.97. But you aren't capturing from a tape. You're just importing files.

  • Audio and Video are out of sync after time remaping.

    After I did the time remap,audio and video are completely out of sync.

    ha. having the video is killer. there are a couple ways to do this. i'd recommend using the blade tool (tap b twice to get the one that cuts all tracks), make a cut through the audio and the video at the points where you want it sped up, then right click the clip itself (which should be linked with audio and video) and then just set it to whatever speed you want. it'll have the same effect. you might have to adjust boundaries or you can select ripple.
    alternatively, it looks like you just needed to do the same thing to the audio that you did to the video in that clip you uploaded. you can always relink things by selecting the audio and video and hitting cmnd+L.
    hope that helps.

  • Photo Booth audio and video out of sync

    Hi everyone.
    I tried recording a video three times today on Photobooth, and every time, the audio and video are out of sync. Does anyone have any solutions as to how I can fix this? Its ever since I downloaded Mountain Lion.
    Thankyou.

    HI, Jay Rhymes,
    I'm having the same problem and took your advice.
    Strangely, the first video I recorded in Photobooth after I changed the settings did sync audio and video.
    But then I deleted that test and tried another, and it was a little off.
    I deleted that test and tried a third time, and it was way off.
    So if I close Photobooth and open it, the first video will apparently sync fine but subsequent ones won't.
    Anyone else having this strange difficulty?

  • Is it possible to play audio and video files(urls) directly in webView ?

    Hello Everybody,
    I have implemented one article page in webView. The content of the that page is html file. There are some links for audio and video files. Is it possible to play that links directly in that webView by clicking them?
    Or is there any other way to play this files?
    Any kind of information on this topic is highly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Pandit Pakhurde

    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.

  • How to synchronize audio and video rtp-streams

    Hi everyone!
    I've tried to make one of the processors, processor1, control the other processor, processor2, with processor1.addController(processor2) but I get a
    javax.media.IncompatibleTimeBaseException. I need to synchronize audio and video rtp-streams because they are sometimes completely out of sync.
    In JMF API Guide I've read:
    "2. Determine which Player object's time base is going to be used to drive
    the other Player objects and set the time base for the synchronized
    Player objects. Not all Player objects can assume a new time base.
    For example, if one of the Player objects you want to synchronize has
    a *push-data-source*, that Player object's time base must be used to
    drive the other Player objects."
    I'm using a custom AVReceive3 to receive rtp-streams and then I create processors for the incoming stream's datasource's, and they are ALL PushBufferDataSource's.
    Does this mean I can't synchronize these. If so is there any way I can change them into Pull...DataSources ?
    How are you supposed to sync audio and video if not with as above ?

You can't change the timebase on an RTP stream because, for all intensive purposes, it's "live" data. It plays at the speed the transmitting RTP server wants it to play, and it never gets behind because it drops out of order and old data packets.
    If your RTP streams aren't synced correctly on the receiving end, it means they aren't being synced on the transmitting end...so you should look into the other side of the equation.

  • My synchronized clips (audio and video) have lost their compound clip icon after I bought the full version of FCP X, why is that?

    I have noticed a few changes to my FCP workflow after installing FCPX from the trial version I had before. I've noticed that when I sync audio and video files together via Clip > Synchronize Clips.. the icon at the top left corner of the thumnail is no longer there as it was in the trial version. I also have to right click and select 'open in timeline' to work on the files. I much preferred clicking on the thumnail's icon in the event library and it opening up in the timeline. Also Stabilization is missing from my video effects! How odd.

    I no longer have the trial version this is the point. Bought the 'release' version about 6 weeks ago. Still doesn't explain why the stabilization option randomly appears for some clips and not for others. Also would like to know if I can get the compound icon back on the thumbnails for synchonized clips.
