Mixing Video with Music

Hello.
I am new to iTunes. I own a PC and normally use Windows Media Player for songs and music videos. I create playlists in Media Player which contain both songs and videos mixed together and play them in full screen for gatherings in my home as my computer is connected to my TV and it makes for nice entertainment for everyone while mingling.
I really like the quality of the downloads available from iTunes but cannot seem to get videos and songs to play together like I can with Windows Media Player. With iTunes, it seems to be either one or the other, not both!
How do I create a playlist in iTunes to play both video and music at full screen? Is this not possible with iTunes 6.0?
Thanks,
cmc123

Thank you for the reply. Microsoft Windows Media Player has been able to do this for over ten years now, but, yes, I have found out from other people as well mixing video and music under the same playlist is impossible with Apple software. Shame.
Well, I will just have to abandon Apple and go back to Microsoft, but thank you for answering.
Best wishes,

Creating A Simple Video With Music and A Picture Background

Some of you all may know that I am in a band. I am wanting to put some of my music on youtube and am wanting to make just a simple video- with the song playing in the background- and just some sort of nature picture, or only a few going in the background. I'm thinking I should use iMovie, but I haven't had a whole lot of luck figuring it out this morning, so I was wondering if anyone here could help me with the task that I mentioned. It would be so greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks So Much,
Ethan

Aluminum or not, there actually is an iMovie forum:

Good luck!

Audio books mixed in with music

Hi, I am a bit of a novice with all of this so please bear with me and keep answers as simple as possible!! I download from CD audio books for my son, primarily harry potter, they are currently all mixed in with my music. I put them into seperate playlists for each book to try and keep a track but they play when I have my ipod on shuffle.
I am looking for a way to have them seperate as audio books. Also I the audiobook header in the Library has disappeared, any ideas on how to reinstate this?
Thanks in advance

Hi Me Again!!!
I have imported a set of 24 cds all for one book using the advice given on here and aldoblog.
When I have set them as 'audiobooks' it has transferred them into the books section. But, it has put each seperate cd as an individual book. No big deal, but just a bit annoying and not as tidy as the others that I have done.
Any ideas on how I link them together.
Many thanks

I have created video with music and pictures. I have exported it. But all that shows is the music no pictures. I have done this before and it worked ok. Am I missing something?

I have created a video with pictures and music. When i export it, it goes into a MP4 video. which I have done before and it worked ok. Now the only thing on the MP4 video is music but not my pictures.
I am very new to this and have taught myself everything so far. I have no technical understanding. So please make any answers as basic as you can.
Many thanks.

I am using standard photoshop cs6.

Is there a way I can make a video with music and effects on my iPad

I want to make a video withe my pictures on my iPad for my aunts funeral . it's a video to be played at my aunts funeral.

I have no personal experience doing this, but I suggest looking at Apple's iMovie app (in the app store) to accomplish this.

Video playback in mixed (video and music) playlists

How can I set a video playlist to play both the songs and the videos (not just the audio from the video)? My 5G ipod would allow both video playback and songs from the video playlist menu. On my 160g classic, I only see/play the videos on the mixed playlists from the video playlist menu.

The 3ivX codec is in your quicktime library folder, normally: root/Library/QuickTime, but I don't think, that Apple encodes their movies with an unsupported codec. Maybe there is another unsupported codec in your library that creates the iTunes-stuttering or the reason for your problem is completely different. I paste here the content of my library folder. If you have anything else in your folder, quit Quicktime Player and iTunes (if they are running) , remove the plug-in and try your movie again in iTunes. Hope, this helps.

Iweb will not workif I try to post a video with music in it.

Hey folks thanks for all your help in the past AAA+
New Prob: I have split all my sites onto new sites and everything has worked fine for two years now, Then I tried to add a site with old family movies which has film from the first races in Watkins Glen, really cool stuff my Grand Dad Lou Teemley took. Any way I had some music on there from my I tunes.
Then I tried to publish and I got the old error message, not connected to the internet etc...
So I made a new site and put the films on their on site etc... still will not publish and now my main site can not be found and I can not publish that site either. What Gives???? Thanks

Kurt:
You might try a different way of adding the video files to the web page. This demo page has one where the file does not load until the play button is selected: Opening Item in a New, Precisely Sized Window. This demo page has 9 short videos on it using that method: PhotoPresenter Animated Slideshow Themes. Just add a screenshot of one of the movie frames or any photo you want and add the Play button on or below it.
You manually upload the movie file to your server so iWeb is not involved in the uploading the file at any time.
Similarly this demo page, QT movies via iFrame, has a method that has you manually uploading the file to the server and linking to it via iFrame code. That page also has other similar methods.
Another method is demonstrated in Roddy's iWeb for Musicians site on his Video page. Here you also upload manually.

Importing video with music attached

I remember watching a training DVD suggesting that when you import music from a CD to lower it by -12dB
I'm working on compiling a collection of music videos into one continuous mix, after I edit what vids to use before I export them to individual .mov's should I lower the audio level by the aforementioned -12dB?
Most of the music is actually not that good a quality and the levels are below 0dB.
Thanks

No. The levels on the CD are already safe, and hopefully good.
If anything, you might need to raise the levels of some tracks to match others.
I wonder where that idea came up...it is true that when mixing sound,
one typically keeps the levels around -12dB, but a well-mastered CD
will have good levels already. In fact most pop CD production includes
ways of making the levels hotter than -12dB and still sounding good.

Software to match video with music tempo

Greetings, I am controlling video on projector screens for a concert. I want the video pace to match the audio pace. I was wondering if there is any software out there that could do this for me if I ran an audio signal into my mac.
thanks in advance for any help

Hi.
Not sure, but I think the best software for this might be the stuff in between your ears. Just kidding....sort of.
It's not clear from your post if you hope to match video to specific musical beats, or if you have video that is connected with certain songs in the concert. Or perhaps, both conditions need to be met.
I am in a band, and am working on video that I am cutting to our pre-recorded versions of the songs we will do in concert After the video is done our band (it's actually a early music ensemble) will rehearse with it to get a feel for the pace. Am trying to include elements for adjusting in a live situation.
I have said nothing helpful for you, so will sign off now!
Good luch with your project.

Totally confused about mixing videos with different field orders.

I have PPcs5 on the pc.
I edit for many different shooters. As such I get everything: Progressive, upper field , lower field . Not to mention from a zillion different cameras & different resolutions.
I output 95% so far to dvd ntsc, 5% BR.
I get dv tapes on some & HD files also.Many times I get a mixure of both on each job. Also Iphone HD files too. Going crazy trying to fiquer out how to set up my sequence when I have upper field or progressive by themselves & also when they are mixed with lower field dv foot...Do I force everything into a lower field seq if going to dvd?
Do I have to deinterlace anything?
If I drag a clip to the new "create seq" icon, it will match the clips properties but is that correct if its a progressive only project or an Upper field project going out to dvd ntsc?
Do I need to RT click on the clips in the project window & "interpet Footage" & force it into a lower field there 1st? Is there a difference between setting up a seq to be played on a progressive DVD player hdmi to a prog TV as apposed to setting up a seq for a non hdmi or non progressive tv?
Does outputting to dvd automatically force it to lower field ?
If my seq isnt set up correctly I notice a big interlace problem when the cams pan from side to side, especially when there are multiple cams with different field orders. Have been unable to find any good discussions or articles on the topic.
How do you guys do it without going crazzzzzzzy?Are there rules? What are the rules? A rule book would really help:-) I Yern for the old DVCAM/DV days:-)

DV is always lower and HD is upper or progressive.
As you are having all fields in one timeline i would make it progressive.
Premiere does a good job in deinterlacing.
Only use Interprete footage when the footage is interprete wrong.
Set up a progressive timeline and drop everything in it. If a clip does not behave correctly you can change fields in the Field Options.
Export from Premiere and import into Encore. That is what i would do......

Shuffle video with music on lock screen

My issue is the reverse of the issue here - Videos playing during song shuffle
On my old iPhones 3GS and iPhone 5, I would listen to a shuffle on my phone while locked. This also successfully played the audio from any music videos I had (no visual as the screen was locked of course).
This was perfectly fine by me and I rather appreciated it.
However, my new iPhone 6 isn't doing the same. It still puts videos into the shuffle list but will not play them. Typically, it just skips that track and moves onto the next one.
When I unlock my phone and play the shuffle in an opened music app, it gets even worse as it just seems to stall on playing the video until I manually skip forward to the next track.
I'm currently running iOS 8.1.3 and the phone was only purchased last December. All versions of the iOS since I got the phone have had this problem. As my iPhone 5 had the same iOS version at the time I upgraded (but didn't have this issue), I'm willing to bet I either lost a setting somewhere in the transfer or it's exclusively an iPhone 6 problem.
If someone could even just help me to get the audio from the videos playing on the lock screen again, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks

Hi Foudyr,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Restarting and/or resetting the iPhone is a good first troubleshooting step for this scenario.
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

If you have tried those two things, refer to page 146 in the iPhone User Guide to Reset All Settings:

Is it permissible to upload a video on youtube with music, sounds effects, and video effects from imovie?

Lately, I've been editing and making videos for a local church in Mexico. I am not selling any of the videos. The are free to watch. However, is it permissible to upload a video with music, sound effects, and video effects from imovie? I using imovie version 10.0.2

This question comes up from time to time.
There are a number of con-men who think that they can earn a quick buck from claiming that they own the copyright to Apple’s royalty-free jingles and sound effects included with the iLife applications. These are all free to use, as clearly stated in section 2.C of the iLife Software License Agreement:
“You may use the Apple and third party audio content (“Audio Content”) contained in or otherwise included with the Apple software, on a royalty-free basis, to create your own original soundtracks for your video and audio projects. You may broadcast and/or distribute your own soundtracks that were created using the Audio Content, however, individual samples, sound sets, or audio content may not be commercially or otherwise distributed on a standalone basis, nor may they be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, sound files, sound effects or music beds.”

Any suggestions for editing Music Videos with Multiclip?

Hi there. I have been reading about the new multiclip feature in FCPHD5. Sounds as if it would be perfect for editing a performance music video with multiple run throughs. In fact it almost seems too good to be true. I was writing to ask if anyone has tried this and what problems they encoutnrered or what workflow they could recommend. I haven't used multiclip before (or editied many music videos either) and would appreciate any suggestions.
This is my idea so far.
capture offlineRT the whole tape, make subclips with an angle setting of each take. Then edit the multiclip in a timeline which includes the song as an audio track. I thought I would synch with inpoints manually set to the beginning of the songs first riff in playback (as there was no clapper on set that day, curse them)
I have questions about onlining as well and how to make it a less tormenting nerve racking experience. Maybe its just me but the thought of trashing all the media, duplicating projects and recapturing makes me break out in a cold sweat. But I'll deal with that later.
Thanks for your thoughts, observations, suggestions.
Have a merry Christmas
Sincerely
Peter Stenhouse

The plan was to sync up the mixed PT audio to the video track. However the club screwed up the recording and I was left with using the audio from one of the tripod mounted cameras that I placed a stereo mike on.< </div>
General advice for live performances:
1. Depending on a computer to make the only recording is a silly idea. Use tape or a minidisk. Take a line feed off the main board and record it on at least one of the cameras.
2. There is nothing that will substitute for missing timecode better than a good countdown. Insist the band develop a creative visual and aural timing cue that all cameras and mics can see.
3. The most important part of shooting a performance or a lipsync gig for mulitcamera assembly is preproduction. The bugs, glitches and gotchas are all well known and thoroughly documented on thousands of band blogs.
4. There is no excuse to go into a location shoot unprepared and carrying a solid backup plan for all of the stuff that will go wrong.
5. A full, all-camera, all-personnel rehearsal is a good idea.
6. The band's lighting guy knows nothing about video. Give him some help or give him the day off.

Hi, I've an iPad Mini with the latest version 6.0.2, a windows 7 Home Premium laptop and iTunes 11.0.1 (12), but I can't synchronize my music or videos with it. I managed to syncronize my books but thats all.
I also have an iphone 5 and everything seems to work fine with it.
I see all movies and music available to be sync but when I click on the sync button, the process starts, the bottom bar shows an increase in consumed space then nothing happens and the bar goes back as nothing was added.
Please help..
I have tried everything but nothing works.

Thanks Sk8dreams,
....but I wish I could have lol like u right now..
If I could get a free iPad everything I'd already kept my iPad connected and restarted iTunes, I think I'd have had a truckload of them by now...
I've done all of these..
Like I said earlier I syncd everything to my iphone5 successfully...
I got my PDF ebooks to this same iPad... Films & Music do not seem to be getting through..
I'm sure someone out there knows what to do..

Since upgrading to 7.0.3 (iPhone 5 64gb, with iTunes Match enabled) all of my music wiped off my phone. Downloading it again, most of the artwork has been mixed up with other artists, and I'm no longer able to stream or download over 3G? Any ideas?

Since upgrading to 7.0.3 (iPhone 5, 64gb, with iTunes Match enabled) almost all of my music has vanished from my phone (weirdly some hasn't).
Downloading it again, most of the artwork has been mixed up with other artists, and I'm no longer able to stream or download over 3G (all tracks greyed out), though my network settings etc are all set correctly.
Lastly since upgrading to iOS 7.0.1 (and beyond) Genuis has become effectively useless: it continually asks me to connect to wi-fi, and if I do it creates playlists mostly composed of tracks by the same artists or those very obviously linked to them- previously it created brilliant, nuanced playlists.
Are these things connected, and how do I fix them?

I have done this on numerous occasions but I think that my Iphone has a defect. After many tries, reinstalls, deletion of content, changing content to be stored on external hard drive, deleting itunes and cleaning computer I managed to get all of the songs on and things seemed okay for a while.
The problem returned about a week ago after downloading a new album from Itunes. I now have 12.5k of songs leaving 10gb spare on Iphone which should be more than enough room to operate properly. Last night it seemed to be dowloading ok (after doing all of the above again for the umpteenth time) this morning it revealed that it had just synched 2.5k of songs and 18gb of "other" on the contents bar. it wont synch now as it says its over capacity. So the 18gb of "other" would probably be corrupted data that means it must corrupt each song as it tries to synch it.
The 2.5k of songs it did synch are working on the Iphone as is every song in the library on Itunes. I did completely delete the new album I bought and redownloaded it from the store then tried to synch just that album and it worked fine.
Just about time to dump apple I think!
