MPEG-2 Video does not match Audio issues - HELP!!!

OK, this problem is driving me crazy, I have done 2 projects recently, with the same bad results.
When I export MPEG-2 video using compressor, the video is a different length than the audio, anywhere from 2-5 seconds on a 90 min. video. If I export the video in OS 9 using Quicktime MPEG-2 export, it is fine.
I updated to the latest version of Compressor and Quicktime, I am using only the standard export presets, nothing weird. So what is wrong with Compressor? Any help is greatly appreciated...

OK, in doing some searching, it appears this is a common problem, but Apple has no fix for. This was the thread I found most helpful, IF you can call it that.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1795177&#1795177
What a piece of crap! Compressor doesn't work, and they disabled MPEG-2 export on Quicktime 7??? Thanks alot Apple, you guys are going downhill fast in my book...

  • Selected file cannot be linked because its type (video) does not match the original file's type

    I've been using Premiere Elements 9 for a couple of years now, and a few months ago I began having problems importing AVI files created from a BlackMagic Intensity Pro capture card.  (These issues were not previously occurring, and since they surfaced, I have exhausted the various settings for the BlackMagic card, used various software such as BlackMagic's own Media Express as well as the freeware VirtualDub, and still have the following problems.)
    In addition, these AVI files play just fine, in their entirety, using Windows Media Player and in Quicktime.
    The problem (or possibly two, but I suspect they could be related) is that most of the AVI files I attempt to import will either (1) import all video and NO audio, or (2) import ONLY a short segment of audio and video, and the length that Elements imports varies.  Usually only in the range of a minute or two.  The rest of the file is not imported at all.
    After much digging in forums, and testing various settings in trying to figure out the issue, I decided to back up all of my files and completely wipe all hard drives and start over with a fresh installation of Windows and Premiere Elements 9.  I haven't installed much else yet, as I wanted to first find out if the reinstallation improved things with Elements.
    For the first project I created in Elements after the reinstallation, Elements successfully imported an entire AVI that was nearly 2 hours long, audio and video.  This was a file that previously would not import properly into Elements.  This suggested that my earlier installation of Elements must have been corrupted somehow.  At this point I was very hopeful that all was well.
    I proceeded to edit the video as I had wanted, saved the project, and exported it to an MPEG format file.  I had originally wanted to export it as an MOV, but I hadn't yet installed Quicktime, so Elements couldn't do that just yet.  The MPEG export was successful and plays fine.
    However, I then installed Quicktime, and once it was finished, I restarted the PC and reloaded the same project.  This time, Elements claimed the media was offline.  I double-clicked on a segment of the video, and directed Elements to the raw file, but then an error message popped up:  "The selected file cannot be linked because its type (video) does not match the original file's type (audio and video)."  This was the same file I had JUST edited and of which I created an MPEG.
    I tried creating a new project and the "Get Media" function to import the AVI again, but this time only the video imported with NO audio.  (This would explain why the error message said what it did, but not why the audio wasn't imported.)
    What in the world is going on with Elements???  I am baffled since the ONLY task I have done on this machine after a complete reinstallation of both Windows and Elements is edit one AVI.  I find it very hard to believe that just installing Quicktime caused this.
    Some info on my system:
    System:  Asus P6T w/ Intel i7 920 and 12 GB memory
    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate
    Video Software:  Premiere Elements 9
    Capture Card:  BlackMagic Intensity Pro (PCI-e)
    Capture Software:  AVIs recorded with either BlackMagic Media Express or VirtualDub (only prior to the reinstallation, as neither of these programs are currently installed)
    I'm getting to the point with Elements that I might need to just abandon it and find something else that is more reliable.  Anybody have suggestions to help with this, so I won't have to migrate?

    We think that we need to start off with definiting the properties of these .avi files that you are importing into Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 (assumed that you are working for the required 9.0.1 Update).
    You say that the "avi" was created from a "BlackMagic Intensity Pro capture card". What are the properties of this .avi that you imported into Premiere Elements? Not all .avi are created equal. What is the video and audio compression, frame size, frame rate, interlaced or progressive, pixel aspect ratio, typical duration?
    Based on the properties of the video what have you been setting as the project preset?
    Let us start here.
    More later.

  • Need help urgently!! - "The selected file cannot be linked because its type (video) does not match t

    Hey guys... I need your help!! I started a project using Premiere Pro 2 and was 80% when I formatted my computer (all my project files were always saved to a external hard drive). Anyways instead of installing Premiere Pro 2, I installed Premiere Pro Cs3. Problem is whenever I try starting up my project it asks me to link every file used. When I do this it says "The selected file cannot be linked because its type (video) does not match the original file's type (audio and video)." I took my external harddrive to friend's house who has Premiere Pro 2 and it says the same thing. Why did this happen? Is there anyway around it... Any help would be greatly appreciated, I put over 20 hours into editing this movie... I don't want it all to go to waste.

  • Video does not play back - please help

    Hi everyone...
    Here are the specs:
    Premier Pro CS4
    Windows XP SP3
    Intel Core 2 Duo
    T9400 @ 2.53 Ghz
    2.53 Ghz 2.90 GB
    149 GB HD -  111 GB free space
    I am not able to play back any type of video, it will pixilated and freeze.  The audio plays fine.  I have imported QT files as well as captured video at the standard DV-NTSC Standard 48Khz
    During capeure I have no problem viewing or capturing....
    The thumbnail image shows a proper image but ones I hit play on the thumbnail preview it pixilated and freezes as well.  Even if I drop the clip in the timeline it does not work.
    I checked the material by using it in another computer with PPC4 and it worked fine...so the source material is not corrupted....
    Any and all the help is appreciated.

    Regarding QT that is what I have always used with other NLE, what do you recommend?
    I've had great luck with QT. I've had the Pro version on all machines going way, way back, with not one issue. Many others have not been so fortunate. As I do not let it update, I managed to miss the 7.4.x debacle, where about 3 udpates killed almost everything Adobe. I'm running 7.5.5 on all machines, IIRC. QT is up to 7.6.3, last time I checked.
    I get a ton of .MOV files and specify the Apple Animation CODEC. To date, all have played and edited fine on my PC's. Again, based on the reports from the field, YMMV. Just because I have had 100% success, does not mean that any others will. Many have not.
    Now, I have the Pro update, and I cannot say how that might affect things, other than the "features" of Pro. As it is just an "unlock," the "guts" of QT Player have go to be pretty much identical. Still, my results have always been with the Pro version, FWIW.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    PS, if there were not issues for many others, the term QuirKtime®, would not have come into popular usage.

  • Exported video file does not match audio file in length?

    I'm back with the same problem.
    Here are the specs for this project:
    Premiere Pro 5
    Footage shot in HDV 1080i (Sony FX1)
    Edited Timeline length...52:25
    Destination: Blu-ray disc
    I have tried both formats in the AME...MPEG2 Blu-ray and H.264 Blu-ray
    I have tried every combination of Presets within these two formats...Match Attributes, 1440x1080i, HDTV....etc, etc, etc
    The machine is spending anywhere from 7 hours to 27 hours to encode these files.
    When I open the two files after the operation has finished, I find I have an audio file 52:25 in length and a video file 43:34, no matter what format or preset I have chosen!
    Upon playback, you can imagine the frustration...within the first two minutes the two are out of sync.
    What am I doing wrong here.
    This is my first sortie into the HD world of Adobe. I've been doing  Adobe Premiere SD for 10 years...and my deadline for the closed captioning is coming way too soon.
    I appreciate any help you might offer.

    Jim...Yes! I just did that this morning in frustration and by golly, they are both the same length. There is a note in the Project window after I copy to "Timeline" that says the video file is unencoded! Wierd! Another problem popped up in that the video and audio files are in different sequences in Encore. I cannot get them to play together. One will play and not the other...? I can't seem to drag them to the same sequence.
    But, at least they are the same length! Mysteries in this HD business.

  • Video does not match memory, missing iTunes U videos

    I had iTunes U on my ipad and downloaded some courses but then my son deleted the app.  Now the memory is still taken up by the courses but I can't find them anywhere to delete them.
    I re-installed iTunes U but they're not anywhere to be found.  Right now the video memory for the ipad shows 5.7G used but I only have 2.8G of movies on there. 
    How do I free up my memory?

    Most likely something your son did corrupted the data. I had this just happen with a game. It was "copying" over from my ipad to mac when I was syncing and I hit cancel. Well, then I had 1.2 GB of Other data just taking up space. I would suggest trying to sync your ipad to the computer. See if just syncing clears up the phantom space, if not then you might have to do a restore.
    Hopefully syncing(uncheck itunes U on computer) will remove the data after its synced.
    I would start there and post back. Maybe someone else has some ideas.

  • Type does not match message when re-linking

    I just got CS3 this morning and have already made use of it to "translate" a project being done in Premiere 6 in order to do some corrective work in After Effects 7.
    I've run into an error message that I'm not sure how to resolve. I've imported a Prem6 project into CS3 and some media is listed as offline. Odd, since I know they're there and working fine in Prem 6.
    When I try to re-link the media, navigate to select the AVI file, then click Select, I get a message box stating:
    "The selected file cannot be linked because its type (video) does not match the original file's type (audio and video)."
    The file is video only though and with a fresh empty project started, it imports into CS3 just fine.
    Anyway to get around this?
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Pardon me for jumping onto an old thread, but I have the same problem (except that in my case the error message is very truthful - after using only the video portion of some clips in my project, I edited the original files to be video-only AVI clips, because the audio will never be used). The reason I jumped in here is that I want to respond to this in Jeff's first reply:
    > Try importing the video-only clip separately, then use the new CS3 Replace Asset command to replace the offline clip.
    I imported the video-only clips, but I can't find any Replace Asset command in PPro CS3. There is also no mention of it in the help files, and Google hits I found seem to all be talking about Encore, not PPro, with one exception that was also
    a post by Jeff (I think it's the same Jeff, anyway - if I'm wrong, forgive me). It sounds like a handy command, if I can find it.
    Naturally I can Alt-Drag the imported clip onto the offline placeholder in the timeline, but then it will use the first part of the clip, not start where the old one did. I could drag it to the source monitor first and set the In Point, but I would need to know where the In Point needs to be - since the clip is offline I can't tell that easily... or can I? Is there a way to determine from the offline clip placeholder what point in the original asset the placeholder's In Point was? That would be sufficient as a solution for me.
    In case you are wondering, my new and old clips are exactly the same length and the same video content - the only difference is lack of audio (which I wasn't using anyway).

  • I imported a video and when I play it back, the audio does not match the video. When I view the tape in my camera it looks fine. I've tried imported twice and each time it doesn't match. What can I do to fix this?

    I imported a video and when I play it back, the audio does not match the video. When I view the tape in my camera it looks fine. I've tried imported twice and each time it doesn't match. What can I do to fix this?

    The default settings mostly likely use an audio sample rate of 32k. This doesn't work probably in FCP. You're probably better off capturing the tape in iMovie.

  • AVI Files import audio fine, video does not playback correctly

    Premiere Pro CS4 imports my AVI file's audio, but video playback does not match up; that is, the audio will playback until finish, but it appears that the video portion only reaches the third or fourth frame of the video! All other video formats import just fine.
    This issue did not occur in CS3.
    I use Windows XP SP3.

    Thanks to everyone for your responses. I solved the problem by installing the proper codec (LEAD MJPEG).
    Now I have another problem -- when scrubbing through videos, it seems as if the audio doesn't follow the cursor. That is, if I scroll to the MIDDLE of a video, I hear audio from the BEGINNING of the video, as if I had just paused and resumed.
    What could be the problem here?? This appears to happen for DivX movies, which I actually don't use often. But still, this would be a nice problem to solve.

  • CS5 The selected file cannot be linked because its type (audio) does not match the original file's t

    Greetings,
    I have been working on a very large project using CS5 on my desktop computer. Now I am on the road and bought a laptop so that I can continue to work. I placed all of my assets on a back-up external 2tb drive (which I was able to open without incident on my desktop). I installed CS5 on my new laptop and now when I try to open the project I get the following message "The selected file cannot be linked because its type (audio) does not match the original file's type (audio and video)". This message appears before I indicate the path to any of the assets. Then, when I do indicate the path to each asset, I get the same message for individual files.
    Any advice is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Jeremy

    I had this problem and have found a solution / workaround:  my issue was when trying to open a cs5 project that had been collected on mac and then transfered to pc, my footage was all png image sequences but this will hopefully work in other situations...
    Open the project and cancel the first dialogue box that pops up where you get the "file cannot be linked" error when trying to reconnect footage.  The project will open and then in the project panel, right click on any footage that needs reconnected and choose "Replace footage..." this will open a dialog that will allow you to select the file that gave you the error in the first place without any issues.  Any sequences with that footage will now work and everything show be all good. 
    You may experience "Offline material is present in this export and will be encoded using the offline media graphic" on first export but apparently you can just ingore that, but i guess it's woth testing a few short sections before commiting to a huge render...
    This workaround isn't perfect as i had about 50 pieces of footage i had to relink via this method one by one but at least it saved redoing the edit which was critical for my project...
    good luck!

  • Audio sample rate does not match (HDcam to dvcam)

    I'm trying to import clips and keep getting this message:
    "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."
    Footage was originally shot on HDCAM and transferred to DVCAM elsewhere. Using FCP 5, am importing via firewire from a Sony DSR-11 deck. Using DV NTSC 48kHz Anamorphic as capture settings (though I've tried everything that I thought might possibly work with no success). The audio does not seem to drift over the course of several 5 minute or so clips. Clip settings show audio at 48 kHz (don't know if that's from capture settings or from actual data). Seems to me all audio should be 48 kHz 16 bits, so can't figure out what's going on. I have to export an EDL for the project to be finished in HD. Read some similar threads that ended in December, seemingly without much resolution. My broader concern is why this is happening; my immediate concern is do I need to worry about this right now since the media files will need to be recaptured in HD anyway. Any thoughts?
    Thanks

    A little more info. I'm having this problem on 4 tapes (from different cameras) that were transferred to DVCAM in a squished format to appear full screen on a 4x3 monitor. Video that was letterboxed and I can bring in with the standard DV NTSC capture settings does not have this problem. Still have the problem if I try to import the clips from the squished video with standard settings. Any thoughts?
