Need help with audio sound distortion

Hi,
I have a HP G60 Notebook PC with Windows 7 which I bought two years ago; recently I noticed when audio is being played, the sound distorts through my integrated speakers (no external speakers) in the laptop. I was wondering if this is a hardware issue or a software one and where would I be able to get it fixed?

having problems with sound distortion,very slow sound as well as the image being slowed down as well. What can be done about this without having to get computer repaired?

NEED HELP WITH VIDEO SOUND PLS

Neither Quicktime Pro or iTunes have the ability to successfully encode a muxed video file with audio. You'll end up with video and no audio.
You'll need to use some other third-party software to do the conversion. There's a handful of software available. Just search the forums and you'll find many titles mentioned.
Videora iPod Converter seems to be popular amongst Windows users, although I've read that you might get mixed results using it.

Need help with audio...

Hi,
I need some help with an audio issue...a deep, buzzing sound which is so dominant, i can barely hear the rest
the situation:
older VHS tape (about 10 years) - i know some of you just cringed the video quality isn't the greatest, but not the worst. the audio is terrible.
transferred with my canopus av300 to my mac (g4 d1.25) - no issues
using FCP 4.5
i tried the AUGraphicEQ and since it was so deep, i reduced the following to 0:
800
6300
8000
reducing anything else doesn't seem to work
i've also tried cleaning in soundsoap both before using the AUGraphicEQ and after. If i clean it with SSoap before AUGraphicEQ, it sounds far better than the original track, but a low buzz is still present. using the EQ again doesn't seem to do much.
the camerawork was done on a tripod about 30 yds back. no mikes were used either. just the camera capturing both a/v.
Any thoughts on anything else to try? Any other filters? I fear the buzz is just with the main sound and no chance of completely killing it.
I can email someone a small sample file for them to play with if you like.
i'm really at my wits end b/c i would like to ensure i give the client as best i can (the other option would be to send the tape to a colleague's audio expert, but the price is something my client doesn't want to pay
Cheers,
Keebler

Got SoundTrack Pro? It will perform miracles with getting rid of unwanted sound. It's a matter of isolalating a few frames of the sound where no one is talking, and then using a simple command to remove that sound by itself from the entire audio track.
There is a possibilty that the Hum remover in FCP 4.5 might help...

Need help with audio transfer!

I'm having problems with audio in idvd. The problem is with clips that were pasted into an imovie project from a different imovie project. The idvd preview seemed fine, but when I burned my disk, the audio associated with the pasted clips was inaudible. The same problem occurred with clips that I had "shared" as a quicktime movie and then imported into idvd. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm a total amateur!

Need help with audio please reply :(:(

I just got Final Cut Express 4, and im a total beginner so I dont know anything, I know how to use Imovie, but FCE is a lot more complicated, ok so heres my problem, when I import a clip and put it in the timeline, I can see the clip but the audio is just a weird beeping noise, whats going on? is this normal? how do i make my normal clip audio sound?

ok, here is like more specific, on Final cut express, you have two screens, i think one of them is for previews, im not sure im a total noob at FCE, anyways, i can see my footage perfectly on the left side screen, with the audio and everything, but then on the right hand screen when i play it, i can see the footage, but its just a beeping sound for the audio, what do i do!!!

Need help with audio on button ASAP THANKS!

Hi,
Using CS3 I added via properties audio to the "over" part of a gold button. The audio I added is 4Mb in size which I had imported to the library. When I selected "over" on the button and then using properties assigned the audio file .... the wave form appeared ... but not under "over" but over, down and hit. Thus when I publish what is happening is the page loads fine ... the audio begins to play on roll over as wanted ...
HERES THE GLITCH: if you accidently roll over again a new audio begins to play out of sync with the first one ... basically you get the row, row row your boat effect where each roll over audio is delayed.
MY FAILED SOLUTION: I tried to move the audio file and assign it via properties under hit. Thus have to have someone click on the sound. Yet the same outcome happend where the wave form appeared not just under hit but it showed on over, down and hit. The same thing happened when I tried assigning to "down".
MY QUESTIONS:
Is this caused by the sound file being too big? I tried a small audio beed and it would assign directly under the part I assigned but not with the bigger 4MB audio file.
If it is the size of the sound file, can I link the button to an external audio file. If so, what code would I use if I am using Action Script 2.0. I am very new at action script.
If it is not the size, could some one please tell me how to fix this glitch. I would be satisfied with the button working on either over or hit. If you wish to see what the button is doing, you can see it online at www.signaturehill.com.
THANKS.

Hi Erika,
That might just be what I need ... but I am confused as to where do put the action code. Can you help me with the following questions:
1. Did you put it inside the button via actionscript or did you select the button just and ad it there ... or somewhere else? Since I have several buttons doing the same thing on different pages, I am not sure where to put it.
2. What was the exact code you used ie on (release) {.... StopAllSounds(); } .... did you even use "release" or some other mouse event.
Please include the action script code I might try since I am very new to scripting. THANK YOU>

Need help with audio portion of iDVD

I have added a playlist from iTunes to a slideshow. When I play it on slideshow, all music in the slideshow is played. However, when I export to iDVD and play back the slideshow, only the first song plays. The rest of the slideshow has no music playing once the first song ends. Help! Thank you!

Hi jMoose and welcome to the forums!
My bet is that the audio tracks that won't transfer to iDVD are purchased tracks in iTunes rather than from your own CDs?
If so what you are up against is DRM copy protection. The workaround is to burn a CD in iTunes of those tracks you need, then re-import them from that CD into iTunes and save them as AIFF files.
Then iDVD will use them with a smile!

Need help with audio trimming...

So I'm working on a new project and was wondering if this was possible in iMovie08.
I have edited some video clips (not long, and now in my project area), and want to use different songs from my iTunes library instead of the iMovie sound effects. The movie is about 3 minutes long, but I wanted to use 3 different parts of different songs from iTunes to use as background music. I'm having trouble doing this, as it seems like I have to use the entire song throughout the full movie... How can I trim iTunes song and use it in iMovie08? I could'nt even trim the sound effects...
I also tried Garageband, but I have absolutely no knowledge in using Garageband... I know I'm wrong, but I couldn't even get any iTunes songs to open in Garageband for trimming...
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

In turn. pin each audio clip to the video clip and not the background. Set its in and pout points for the segment of audio you want and then slide the clip segment in the exact position/location you want it.
I also tried Garageband, but I have absolutely no knowledge in using Garageband... I know I'm wrong, but I couldn't even get any iTunes songs to open in Garageband for trimming...
With GarageBand, simply drag and drop each clip to the main window to add each as an individual track. Select the audio track you wish to work on and move the "playhead" to find the "in" or 'out" point you wish to set. When in position, select the "Split" option in the Edit menu to split the selected audio track. Remove the unwanted segments and slide the content you wish to keep to the position/location you want it to play in relation to the video track. Select and repeat this same process for each of your other audio tracks.

Need help with audio books

I need help with the sound on my computer.

I know this question isnt apple related but when I go to websites with video I can watch the video but the sound doesn't work. I have been all over the internet and this was the best place I could think of to get information. Someone please help me.

Hi Emily
A few people here may be able to answer your question.
Have you tried posting your question at Yahoo Answers? http://answers.yahoo.com/
Or start a discussion at Google Groups http://groups.google.com/
You would also need to post more information on the subject, such as computer type, operating system, processor speed, amount of installed RAM , web browser that you are using. Also mention if you have Adobe Flash player, Adobe Shockwave player, Apple Quicktime Player or any other media player.
Hope this helps in your search

I need help with audio in my Premiere Pro edit

I recently recorded a gameplay with a song track in it. In the beginning of my video, i did a voiceover explaining what the video was going to be about. When im talking, i want to lower the song, then raise the volume when im done talking. How can i do this? If i need to be more specific let me know. Thanks!

OK, assuming that the gameplay audio with the song is on audio track one and the voiceover is on audio track two.
All you have to do is to keyframe track one to lower the volume while you are talking and raise it bak to normal when you finish speaking. It is pretty simple.
