Monitoring audio in sync with video when capturing in FCP studio

Is there a way I can monitor audio in sync with video when capturing in FCP Studio? I know you can plug headphones into your tape deck but that sound is not in sync with the video in the capture window due to time delay. I tried plugging the headphones into my Powerbook but could not get any audio coming through these, nor audio through the Mac's inbuilt speakers.

The preview checkbox is ticked and the audio monitor indicates that sound is being picked up (the levels rise and fall) but I still can't hear anything! The audio/video sync on the external monitor is ok, but because there is a time delay between that and the video capture window, I can't use that as a reliable monitor for sound sync. If I could resolve the video sync problem there, then I could monitor the sound through the external monitor.

  • Audio not syncing with Video when live streaming.

    Hello, i was wondering if i could get a possible fix for a problem that's been keeping my streaming back. I am using a Dazzle capture card to stream video games, and Flash Media Live Encoder 3.2 to send out the feed. My video source is of course the capture card and i use a MAC program called "Audio Midi Setup" to create an aggregate device of both the dazzle audio and my microphone as an audio source for FMLE. This way, the viewers could hear both my voice and the game audio.
    Everything works really well, except for one problem. The audio always occurs 6 seconds before the actions in the game that correspond to it, and my voice will mention something first before it happens, again off by 6 seconds. I've played around with a couple of the settings for audio and video, but no matter what, it's always a 6 second delay. I've had this problem for a while and am unsure if the problem stems to FMLE at this point, but would appreciate any possible help. Thank you

    This is common for separately recorded audio.  Sync the start of both clips. then go to the end and adjust the speed of the audio clip until it get's back in sync at the end.  It should then be in sync throughout.  You'll have to experiment to get just the right adjustment.  My device's clips had to be adjusted to 100.4% speed to keep sync.

  • Audio not synching with video when capturing

    When capturing video from my Sony DV camera, the audio is always out of synch with the video which has forced me to move the audio in the timeline to manually synch. The amount by which it's out of synch seems to vary, i.e. not always out of synch by the same number frames.
    I'm sure there's a capture setting to fix it but have yet to locate it.
    Thanks.

    A separate issue perhaps, but after my recent upgrade to CS6 I need to render out a stacked 18 minute timeline done in CS5 (Win 7/Matrox MXO2). All 7 tracks of audio are out of synch 8 frames late.  When it comes to common backwards compatibility issues that I feared, it's a pretty simple fix after a render, unlink and re-render.   I don't see this mentioned in the archives, so if anyone has an explanation or quick fix I'd appreciate hearing about it.

  • Audio not synced with video on movie downloads

    The audio is not synced with video on movie downloads from the ITunes store.  I have downloaded many movies in the past from the same PC with no problem.

    Hi Jimmyjoefl,
    I understand that you are having playback issues with videos you have purchased from the iTunes Store. After doing some research, I found the following resource that describes your exact symptoms:
    Troubleshooting iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7 video playback performance issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1718
    Here are some things to check if, when viewing a movie in iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7, you notice that a video appears distorted, intermittently pauses, or has audio that is out of sync with the image on-screen.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Audio not sync with video using photo booth since os moutain lion was installed

    Since OS Moutain Lion was installed my photo booth no longer function well, audio is not sync with video, the sound delay is obvious with the video outut wha can I do to correct this?

    I've seen that problem in several threads, both here and in the Mountain Lion forum. I tried to replicate the problem but was unable to do so... so it's not a problem effecting all Macs. Try posting here - in the Mountain Lion forum - and see what you get as a search. There's one specific "More Like This" to the right on this thread but there doesn't seem to have been a solution posted.
    Good luck,

  • Audio loses sync with video on HD footage (CS5.5). 'MPEG decode error'

    HI All,
         I'm trying to cut this vox pops video together but the audio seems to lose sync. i noticed that there was a red circle in the bottom right of the screen with a cross in the centre. After clicking on it, i was greeted with this message...
    I have a fairly powerfull machine so I'm unsure as to what the problem is. Any suggestions as it's making this task virtually impossible!!!
    machine specs...
    Please, any help appreciated!!!

    Had this occasionally myself.
    For me it was drop-out on the tape (at the very start of some sections luckily), even though CS5.5 did not register any drops when capturing.
    If you're not using tape then you've got a card error. Checkout the video at or about Frame 32106. Check out the source material. Although Windows 7 Media Player is likely to show no errors and with your audio in sync - very mis-leading - a false positive.
    Fix for me was to simply re-sync audio/video manually but upstream of the error. If not, you will likely find you will also get export errors when trying to export via AME.

  • Audio not sync with Video

    I am using a Sony DVMC-DA1 to convert VHS tapes into Final Cut Express. After I finish capturing is says,
    "The audio sample rate of one or more of your captured media files does not match the sample rate on your source tape. This may cause the video and audio of these media files to be out of sync. Make sure the audio sample rate of your capture preset matches the sample rate of your tape."
    I have looked in books and feel that I have tried everything. The audio is still not in sync with the video. I am out of ideas. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    What is the audio settings of your sequence? It has to match that of the video you're importing
    I'm not familiar with the unit you're using to import but basically, if your video is 16 Bit 48K then your sequence, your timeline, as to be the same, say NTSC (or PAL) DV. If the video is being captured at 12 Bit, your sequence should be NTSC (or PAL) 32K.
    Having mismatched audio rates in your timeline will usually lead to out of sync audio

  • How to shift audio to sync with video

    Friends,
    I have a clip (actually a collection of clips) that I exported from Final Cut Pro Express and imported into FCPX for editing.  I recognize that it's cumbersome but I prefer to edit in FCPX, even though I had to string together a bunch of separate clips for the export, thereby creating a long single clip.
    The problem is that the audio is slightly out of sync with the video.  Is there an easy way to detach the audio and shift it about ten frames to the left?  If I do that, will I be able to use a blade to chop the long clip into smaller clips for editing?
    Thanks!
    Steve

    Detach audio is something you do in the Timeline to detach the audio so it's completelky separate from the video and can be movede to wherever you want. The only way to reattach the video is to make it a compound clip. When you open in Timeline, the audio, even is shifted, remains attached to the video and still appears as a single clip in the Timeline. You can't detach audio for a clip in the browser.

  • Audio off Sync with Video Podcast....

    Somehow I always have trouble downloading Video Podcast. I Usually find myself having to download each episode 3 or times because iTunes hardly gets it done the first time, and when It's done successfully, the audio is off sync with the Video. I have the latest version of iTunes
    Custom   Windows XP

  • Brand new AppleTV audio loses sync with video in any of the apps over time

    I bought a brand new panasonic viera plasma and a brand new Apple TV. Video is set to 1080p and I have comcast cable internet. I have three apple TVs in the house. The other two are the 720P models. I've tried two new appletvs on new tv only and after an hour or so of viewing videos in any of the apps (hbogo,Netflix,Hulu) the audio loses sync resulting in me resetting the ATV and fixing the issue temporarily.
    I didn't have this problem when I was using the 720p model ATV on the new tv.
    Could it be the larger 1080P files?

    does it happen with shared material in an itunes lib?
    if not and only the internet streaming services then maybe it's a Internet network issue

  • Audio not syncing with video in itunes

    Just upgraded iTunes (to sync wiht my iphone 5C) -- after a few playbacks the audio stopped playing while video would continue (no issues with music or in any other video playback outside of itunes).  I turned off the equalizer, which returned the audio track to syncing with the video, except when i expand to full screen viewing -- the audio gets off track again and never catches up.  In looking through user comments this seems a frequent problem for iTunes with Windows, but I have OS X 10.8.3.

  • Re-attaching audio to sync with video??? can it be done in iMovie 09

    I've searched all over the web and I'm stuck. I've detached audio from a video clip so I can use that audio as a voiceover on other video footage. However, I'd now like to pin or re-attached that audio to the new video clip so it doesn't move while I edit my project. Can't find a solution for this - there must be one. Note that I'm not referring to a background music track I've added. I'm referring to audio which I've detached and now wold like to attached to a new video clip/portion of the project. Thanks for any help!

    can I take a music video from itunes an use it in my movie
    Isn't that a little like taking a couple of pages from Shakespeare to use in your next novel?
    I tried to import it but it seems to be in the wrong format or somthing.
    Copy protection will do that to a file.

  • Audio unsynced with video when capturing analog HD with Kona LHe card!

    Hey,
    This is kind of an emergency because i am in the process of logging a feature film. I am using the Kona LHe card to capture analog audio and video with the JVC BR-HD50 HDV deck. It is 720p24 HDV footage converted to analog DVCProHD 720p59.94 footage through the Kona. My issue is that the audio is about 4 or 5 seconds unsycned with the video...I am also getting some audio popping. The audio sounds fine when listening through the line mixer but it pops when i play back though FCP. I already contacted AJA (the makers of Kona) and they its a FCP problem...Any prompt help would be greatly appreciated...
    -JE

    Welcome to the forums!
    What version of FCP are you running? If you can, get to the most current version as this solves a lot of issues with the DVCPRO HD codec.
    And have you read this whitepaper?

  • Audio Not Syncing with video

    When I go to test my video the audio and video are playing at different playback speeds. I'm trying to
    create a video using Flash that requires events based on the song itself. Any idea how to make the audio and video play at the
    same speed during Timeline playback and testing?

    Syncing sound with animation in Flash is not an easy thing to do. First, understand that there are three ways of playing sound in your movie:
    Placing sound directly in the timeline
    Placing sound in the library and accessing it via ActionScript
    Placing a sound file on the hard drive (locally or on a web server) and accessing it via ActionScript
    Sound that's in the timeline can be synced precisely, but you can't use a sound clip that's very long. It's meant for beeps and such, not for an entire song. But if you use sound like this, set it to Stream for best results.
    Sound in the library has a chance of syncing if you load it as a SoundChannel. Remember to import flash.media.SoundChannel at the beginning of your ActionScript.
    AFAIK, there is no reliable way of syncing an external sound file.

  • Audio not synced with video

    I imported from avchd (Panasonic Lumix) format and the video was all speeded up and the audio was not in sync. I have imovie 08, 7.1.4. It seems I should be able to use it. Your feedback is appreciated.

    I have seen this article around but there hasn't been a correct answer. I have the waterproof Panasonic Lumix TS2 and I upgraded to iLife 09 because the guy on the phone said that's the only way I could retrieve my videos. Then after doing so, my videos play way too fast and the audio seems normal. In the other forum topics like this they all say that you need to upgrade to iMovie 09, same with Apples response to the Lumix cameras, but I have it and it still doesn't work or fix the problem.
    Love this camera, love my mac, but now I am hating both haha.
