My dvd only plays the left speaker of my song...

Hello everyone. I recently exported onto a dvd from adobe premiere 2.0 that included a song that i had recorded in mp3 format.
In the song, some of the instruments come out of the left speaker, and some come out of the right. When i play this video on a standard dvd player through a television, the mp3 only plays the audio that is supposed to come out of the left speaker, but it plays it through both speakers. This renders many of the instruments unhearable.
When i play it through a computer, though, with a dvd decoder, it plays everything perfectly.
What should I do?

MP3's are very often problematic. First, I would check your source file in G-Spot, to see what it reports, 2-channel, or 1-channel.
Personally, I always convert ALL MP3's to PCM/WAV and Import those. This eliminates the issues, and Audition (or the freeware, Audacity) can do this easily. The only exception will be tiny SFX files, and most are mono anyway. Where did your MP3 come from?
Good luck, and let us know how it goes,
Hunt

Built-In Microphone records audio only from the Left speaker

I'm not sure if my settings are correctly set up, but whenever I record through Logic, it only picks up sound from the Left Speaker of my MacBook Pro.
When I try to make noise through the Right Speaker, Logic's sound levels do not respond.
Any ideas why this is happening? I don't plan on using the built-in Microphone for much longer, but it's all I currently have at this point. Thanks!

James,
Again, thanks for the response! I guess what Tokuda said about the mono Mic in the left speaker settles that. I was just confused, because when I used Sound Forge on my Windows partition, it would always pick up sound from both speakers (I think?). I could be wrong on that one too though.
As for goals, my long term goal is to produce Club/Dance music & some serious Vocal work with Logic. Only thing is I have no basis or ground knowledge of music. For instance, I don't even know how to play the piano, or read music for that matter. Sad, I know...but it is a work in progress. And the only Microphone I use is built-in and my voice overs always sound so bland & one-dimensional. No dynamics or great effects to them, like Tpayne, BSpears, or Madonna vocals. Not sure where I should start, maybe take some basic music theory courses at the local community college, grab an internship at a radio station, & then further my education @ SAE, or Berklee College of Music to learn more advanced editing techniques.
In the meantime, I have been producing Cheer, Dance, & Aerobic music for the past 5 years. It first started as a hobby, and then transformed into its own little business, and now I do hundreds of mixes for Cheerleaders & All Star programs all over the place! It came so natural to me though...Laying beats over songs, then adding my own creative touch to make it my own. I've been using Acid, which is GREAT for what I do, but isn't going to get me much further than that. That being said, I finally made the decision to move up to Logic, not only to broaden my musical horizons, but to hopefully continue making Cheer music with it as well.
Since Acid is PC only, I still do work on my desktop PC and have been slowly weaning myself from it. The Logic learning curve is extremely difficult (for me at least) and it's taken a lot of getting used to some things like NOT being able to cross-fade my loops. Very, very annoying. Nonetheless, I know I have to make the switch to Mac if I'm really serious about making it anywhere in this biz.
Anyway, I can totally email you one of my mixes (if you're interested). I would post a link here, but I gather most of the musicians on here wouldn't really appreciate it as much as I do, haha. Oh and by the way, thanks for taking the time to listen & help me out here. It means a lot man!

To Start with, check in sound balance...to do that...
Go to control panel -> Sound -> Double Click on Speakers -> Levels -> Balance...

Airport only plays from left speaker

Just got the Airport Express to hook up to me receiver so i can play music wirelessly from my iphone 5. I hooked it up the same way i used to hook up my phone to the receiver and its only playing out of the left speakers. Why? When i hook up my phone it plays out of all the speakers. I also tried hooking the iphones headphones into the airport and it only plays out of one speaker. For $100 i figured it would play out of all the speakers.

Something's wrong with my headphone jack, it only plays the left side!!

I know it's not my headphones, cause I've tried 4 different ones, one of them new, and it''s always the left side that's the only working side. If I wiggle the headphones in the jack, the right side will cut in and out. This just happened today, I have no idea why. I didn't drop it, or get it wet or anything, I have no idea what couldv'e caused it. I've had the iPod since the beginning of this year, I don't think I registered it or got a warrenty or anything, I'm not sure how'd I'd check though. Can Apple fix this or can I fix it myself or what would you guys suggest? Thanks.

That happened with me also when I bought my skull candy headphones(iPods headphones hurt my ears). My headphones also worked for a while and then went to a point where I could only hear out of one side. I finally reverted back to the iPods headphones. I just stuck with the original headphones. Maybe I'll buy some of their more comfortable ones.
Also try not winding your headphone cord around the iPod too tightly. I looked somewhere else and someone said that that could be the problem. If you do wrap the excess cord around the iPod, try wrapping them around not as tight. I tried that and I got some extra life out of my old headphones. I would probably still be wearing them if I hadn't stepped on the jack and bent them.
I'm sorry that this is so long. Hope this helped.

Purchased albums only playing the first 2m51s of each song!

Hi, all of a sudden, on certain of the albums that I've purchased through iTunes, only the first 2m51s of each song will play (either on the MAC through iTunes direct, or on my IPod). This didn't happen when the albums were first purchased and doesn't happen on all albums that I've bought through iTunes. Not sure how to fix the problem though. Any suggestions gratefully received. Thanks.

Mono audio playing from left speaker only

For websites who have mono recorded (single channel) podcasts, audio in firefox will only play from left speaker instead of picking center channel.
If audio is downloaded and played on seprate dedicated player it defaults to center or if same site is played in IE also defaults to center.
Stereo recorded podcasts have no issue.

I assume that not a Flash player is used in this case, but that this is an issue with the (built-in) HTML5 media player and the audio tag is used.
Is that correct?
The Flash player should show the Flash context menu if you right-click the player area.

I have iPhone 3GS, and everytime I go to listen to my music with my headphones the sound only goes to one ear and when I listen to music with the speakers at the bottom speaker the left speaker only works! Can someone PLEASE HELP ME?

My music only plays in my left ear when I'm wearing my headphones and when I'm listening to music without my headphones the music only comes out through the left speaker. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME,? YOUR HELP WILL BE MUCH APPRECIATED.?

All iphone have one and only one speaker at the bottom.
Have you tried another set of earphones? Maybe they are the problem?
Have you made sure that the headphones are inserted all the way?

How come some apps won't play sound on a USB device but only on the internal speaker while others can?

How come some apps won't play sound on a USB device but only on the internal speaker while others can? Mac OS 10.8.5

You can simply set your system preferences
Sound preference
output - to whatever your USB device/audio interface is
Your question seems a bit vague to me though. So can you actually inform us of what it is you are trying to do and give us examples with named kit.

When burned to a disk i can only hear most tracks through the left speaker!

alright, i recently recorded a few songs they consist of a looped drumbeat some software and real instruments. I made sure all were panned to the center, but when i listen to it on a cd or on itunes i can only hear a majority of the parts through the left speaker. the part that comes through the right speaker is the looped drum beat. So if anyone has any suggestions or something i just missed please let me know. thanks.

Why is does audio only come out of the left speaker when I press the latency button....?!?!

Hello
I have a small problem which I hope someone can advise me on ......
Everytine I press the Latecny button on Logic 9 the audio will stop coming out of the LEFT and RIGHT speakers and only come out of the LEFT speaker ?
Audio sent out of DAW --------> Mixng Deck ------> back into Soundcard via SPDIF (digital) on inputs 9/10
I am sening al my sounds out of the computer to be summed on a mixing decks and then the 2 channles of audio from the deck is coming back into my soundcard as an digital a signle on INPUTS 9/10.
Can anyone please advise ..........!?!

Might want to read on what Low Latency mode does + why and when you should use it.
It's basically only used in realtime monitorinr when recording and/or when recording softsynths.
By reading the docs you should be able to figure out why the right side is being muted.
http://documentation.apple.com/en/logicpro/usermanual/index.html#chapter=41%26se ction=2%26tasks=true
Be sure software monitoring is Off when recording the summed input.

Ipod touch only plays through one speaker when docked to car

It was working fine yesterday until I restored my touch and now this morning only plays through the left speaker. Ive read other topics with people that have this problem but no answer that fixes the problem.
I have a 8g touch and an alpine system in my car. The cord is fine because my old video works perfectly and the touch has no problem connecting to the computer.

hmmm sounds like a could be either a faulty connection in your alpine, or the ipod touch has a problem sending the signal through the USB Pin look into google search for this kind of problem, but I would try another cable or a new usb cable. either way it could be the connection to the audio pin section of the usb connector of your alpine.

ITunes 10 will only play the first track of a CD, including brand new CDs.

I reinstalled my operating system and had to reinstall iTunes. Now I have version 10 and after I import a CD it will only play the first track then progressively go track by track skipping through the rest without playing. Does it even whether I try to play from the CD or from the music section I imported it to. Even have 3 brand new CDs that it is doign the same thing to, so I have a hard time believing it is a disc reading issue.
