No audio again ... !

Sorry but I'm jiggered ... on the Apple site I'm sure it said the 10.4.7 combo OSX update and the 7.1.2 QT update would solve the sound problem (ie there is none in qtime) ... when are they going to sort this ? .... must I go back to 7.0 ? .... sorry to whine but I'm fed up.
Thanks for bothering to read this ... I'm going to the pub!

Funny you should bring this up. I just had a 'no audio' problem with my TiBook that just appeared overnight for no apparent reason. I have a FireWave external sound device and the settings that worked fine the night before just stopped working the next morning. I could only use one setting and that setting only gave me stereo sound from two speakers. All the other settings produced no audio even when trying the speaker tests.
I ran through the whole nine yards yesterday and nothing worked, so, I finally just unplugged/re-plugged the FireWire cable and everything works again. Strange how that worked when numerous restarts failed. Too bad you can't just disconnect/reconnect the internal sound device on a Computer. Something weird going on here...

Problem with Premiere always conforming Audio again & again

I've got a problem with premiere CC which is always conforming audios time & again & again. Although this problem is not new in Premiere and I did face it in previous versions. But I've never found a good way to avoid it, especially when I work with much heavier clips or with some formats like mpeg or mov....
What should I do? Is that a network issue?
Thanks, Jim.

No Antivirus.
Audio is 5.1 audio from the video AVCHD, and music tracks are mp3 files.

First play plays audio again

In DVDSP2 I have a logo with music audio bed as first play. They play fine, but then when the player continues to the first menu, two seconds of audio from the beginning of the first play plays again. No video just the first few bars of the music. This doesn't happen in simulation mode, but it happens every time on the disk on a variety of players. What is wrong?

A couple of questions: how long is the first play
video? Is the audio the same length? Does the first
menu have any video or audio? Also, it doesn't happen
in Simulator, but does it happen if you play the
VIDEO_TS folder on your hard disk with DVD Player?
Just trying to determine if your set-top box is the
cause, or whether maybe the audio is repeating
because it's not the same length as the video.
That was it. Audio was longer than video. Thanks!

How do i make my clips have stereo audio again?

I've been building a project and i'm about half way done. All of my video clips were imported with stereo audio and until now they have been stereo when i drag them down to the timeline, but for some reason, now when i drag them to the timeline they become mono tracks. They are still stereo while they are in the browser, though. Even when i drag a clip that i used earlier in the timeline (when the clips stayed stereo tracks) it comes up a mono track. Did i change a setting? or is there something i'm not doing or doing different? How do i get my tracks to be stereo again?

Do two tracks go to the timeline or one? Are both tracks connected in the path panel at the head of the timeline? Are the clips stereo pairs or dual mono?

Core audio again

Um, this problen is happening on brand new arrange as well. Loaded one audio instrument with a logic plug in and the audio is hanging when i play a note key. In other words I press down a key and no sound comes across for about 5 secs then the sound comes on. If I hold down the note it plays for about ten seconds then cuts out again, no sound for intermittent time and then plays again!
Have not changed any settings at all but had a lot of smokers in the room over the weekend while the mac was running. I'm not a smoker myself and cant imagine that this would cause issues with the machine but previous experience has led me to question anything different with the mac environment! really dont know what has suddenly caused this so ......Help?
Marto

I don´t understand anything of this....running a single 15 min. track should cause problems like this? On an intel iMac? No way! Even with stock Ram (512) onboard. I could do that 10 years ago on a PM 8200, 100 mhz...OK! only 16 bit/44.1.
And now you suggest disabling widgets and networking and more....What the H...?
Right now I´m doing nothing but writing this, Cpu use: Kernel tasks, 5.5%.
Activity monitor, 2 %, Windowserver(?) 0.3 %, safari 0.10 %, that´s about all.
Then I open a Logic project -only 10 audio tracks and few plug-ins.
Logic: Cpu 20%, Memory 152 mb.
There´s a lot of headroom here, even if I had only 512 mb Ram (I have 2GB).
And the suggestion to have buffer set to 256 or higher is not acceptable/usable or neccessary. Apart from Sculpture, Ultrabeat and direct monitoring
using Space D. I have no problem to go 64... But I set to 128 for safety.
(And sometimes 512 for mixing)
I don´t know why this new macintel behaves like this, but it should in fact be more powerful, than my dp 1.8. If my (fantastic!) pm will not playback a single 15 min. track, I will not consider disabling dashboard. I will dig deeper.
Maybe, just maybe, you could try to open Garageband and change buffer,
low, high, whatever. I´ve experienced conflicts here before.

No audio again and again t61p (installing driver works just until I restart)

Hello
Here's the problem: I have no audio. All devices are ok, and soundmax integrated digital HD audio shows fine in device manager.
What I do is uninstall that driver, and reinstall. (I have win xp, and I'm using the one downloaded from lenovo directly named 7ka117ww
Tried deleting first (when running setup) or directly reinstalling. Every time I install audio comes back, but then dissapears after rebooting.
So I have some audio when I install (I'm being prompted to restart, and that time I hear audio ok).
Next time the story starts over.
For instance right now, in control panel > audio
Is all grayed out (and no icon in tray)
Can you please help me?

Sounds like you might have audio muted in a bios setting perhaps. I'd look through the settings and if you can't find any place it was disabled try pressing f9 key to load bios defaults, then f10 to save and exit bios. Since it works until you reboot that's the only thing I can think of offhand, but I've worked on over 100 T61 models and never seen this problem.

My IPAD 2 has intermittent sound. It cuts out while I'm listening to something. It may take hours to get audio again. What is causing that?

Why is my IPAD2 experiencing intermiitent sound. All updates are current. I have done complete shut downs and checked settings. It quits in the middle of things. If I turn it off for several hours, it comes back on. System sounds work

I think that you mean that you cannot reset all settings or erase the device using the settings because of the fact that you don't remember the passcode. Unfortunately, you can't retrieve a restrictions passcode. You have to restore the iPad to factory settings to remove the passcode. However, that is something else that I suggested in my post above. And frankly, not knowing your restrictions passcode makes using the iPad such a pain be use you need to get into the settings from time to them.
You will have to restore completely as new and not use a backup. If you backup and restore the backup, you will be restoring the passcode that you cannot remember.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

Mastering Audio (Again)

I know this is a topic that comes up a lot so sorry .
As a relatively new user of recording/production software I would say that it is mastering that I am finding the most difficult skill to master.
At present all I have is the plugins that come bundled with Logic, so my first question is to what extent can these be used to get a decent sounding final track master?
Secondly I have read a lot of how many people seem keen on the PSP Vintage Warmer and Izotope Ozone for mastering. So how do these compare with the multipressor and Apple AU Multiband Compressor?
I guess I'll get the demos for the mentioned plugins and check them out, though I have also read good things about the Liquid Mix which I beleive is also hardware, so how do people think this compares?
All answers greatly appreciated
Sam

At present all I have is the plugins that come bundled with Logic, so my first question is to what extent can these be used to get a decent sounding final track master?
Yes, but it's all so subjective. If you're planning for a release, then I'd suggest you go to a mastering engineer. It's not so much the M.E.'s equipment, it's more about buying fresh ears that have experience of what sounds best in comparison to similar music.
Having said that, there's nothing wrong with trying out different processing, and Logic comes with some good plugs that will help.
First, get your mix as good as possible. Bad mixes can't be fixed later. The least amount of processing that you do at the mastering stage, the better. Look upon mastering as final, subtle, adjustments, as well as getting the levels right, both song-to-song and the overall perceived volume of the entire CD.
I have both PSP VW and Ozone, and like them both. I don't think there's any 'better' or 'worse' - they're just tools, and as I can't hear your tracks, I couldn't suggest which one you would find best for your songs. There are many other plugs too - get the demos and have fun. Same with Liquid Mix (which I don't have, but have tried).
I'd suggest you get your mix as good as possible, and then open a copy up in a fresh Logic session and experiment, comparing the results to comparable releases to check what you're doing. Check listening to results on a wide variety of systems to see which approach sounds best on most systems.
There are many books on this out there if you want to read more. I'd still suggest a trip to a mastering studio at some stage, as it can be a very valuable learning experience and you can ask lots of questions - worth every penny.

How do I get my audio to work again on my iPad?

How do I get my audio to work again when I play video links on my iPad 2? Think the problem might have started when I did the update to IOS 7.1. I click on a video link when I'm in an app like Facebook. The video plays, but no audio. I used to be able to open the link in Safari and the be able to hear the audio. But now that doesn't work either. Apple support helped with a similar problem in10/3013. They made me back up my iPad to ITunes through my laptop and think they wiped my iPad and re-loaded the software. Is there any other fix?

I just saw an answer that "Demo" posted 9/30/2012. Said to re-boot the iPad system by holding Down to the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the apple logo screen popped up. It worked. I I've got audio again on my video links!

Review Quiz - Audio plays again after reviewing

Hey,
I integrated an audio into my Quiz Result Slide. Its like "Here are your results. If you wanna see, what mistakes you did click on "Review" "
Problem is, when user is reviewing and the last question in the Quiz was shown it automatically shows the Result slide and PLAYS THE AUDIO AGAIN!
How can I tell Captivate, 'Do not play this audio again. Stay mute.' or 'Jump to annother slide' ?
I tried to find the script for the Review-Button, but couldn't figure out.
Thanks for any help!
Martin

If this is the only audio, you could set the system variable cpCmndMute to 1 in the conditional action if the user variable has been toggled to 1. It will be a conditional advanced action, something like this:

[SOLVED] midi and audio playback interfere with each other?

Hi, thanks for reading...
I've recently installed tux guitar and have been trying to use it together with an audio player (vlc player). However I am only able to get one of these applications generating sound at any one time.
If I load up a tab file and play it (using midi) from tuxguitar I find I am no longer able to play audio files in vlc player or rhythmbox.
After quiting tux guitar I can play audio again. But I can never get them both to work at the same time. (Really I just want to switch between applications without having to quit one to use the other.)
Any advice on how to start debugging this would be greately appreciated.

I just tested it out myself. First, I experienced the same problem that you did. Mplayer wasn't able to play any audio because is said the sound device was locked or in use or something silly. In Tux Guitar, I disabled the JACK and OSS plugins (and a lot of other plugins) and changed the sound settings to "TuxGuitar Sequencer" and MIDI Port "TiMidity port 0 [128:0]. (I have timidity setup as my MIDI "hardware", like it is described in the Arch wiki) After that (and rebooting), I was able to play a TAB file and an MP3 in mplayer at the same time.
Let me know if you have any questions about what I did.
DISCLAIMER: This was a simple test. I don't use (or know how to use) Tux Guitar.

5G iPod no audio after full charge

I have a new 5th gen ipod and having problems with the audio playing after charging the unit.
I leave the ipod connected to the USB cable overnight, but when I go to use it later in the day, trying to play songs or podcasts, there is no audio! This has happened about every time I've charged it. All menu navigation and selection of things to play works fine, but there is no audio to be heard. Song, podcasts, videos, no audio for any of them. The timer ticks as it plays, the status bar shows it proceeding thru the play, but no audio.
I don't know yet if it's related to charging but it seems to occur after a charge. I have to soft-reset to get it to work again. Then it works fine until the next time I charge it. This is getting really annoying. I have updated the software on the ipod to the latest available. I have the latest iTunes.
One day after soft-reseting and then playing audio ok, I went to use it a few hours later (no charge inbetween) and it wouldn't play audio again. This time I also had a terrible time trying to soft-reset it, it wouldn't! I pressed the center select and top menu positions on the thumbwheel and it wouldn't go, try after try! After about 5 minutes of trying it finally did.
I have an iSkin eVo case on my ipod. I don't know if this would affect it but I also left the single sheet sticky plastic on the face of the ipod that came from Apple. Once the audio starts working, it works fine. No problems selecting, navigating, changing volume, moving the play-head forwards, back, etc.
Anyone else have this issue? I'm about to take it in for repair/exchange.
G4 Dual-533 Mac OS X (10.4.5) ipod 5th generation (video)

Well, I spoke too soon... two days of using the ipod and it worked fine, BUT I realized I didn't leave it charging over night. Third night I had it on all night so a full charge and once again it didn't play audio in the morning. I shows that it's playing, the time for the song/podcast changes, the play symbol is on (not pause) but no audio. I have to reset the ipod and then it works fine. Then later in the day I try to play it and it won't even play! Menu navigation works but I click on the play button and it won't change the play time.
So I'm back to square one! This ipod has a problem!
Any ideas? I'm ready to take it in to the Apple store before the warrantee runs out.

No HDMI Audio from PNY Nvidia G210 Card - Please Help [SOLVED]

***** It's now working! *****
Thanks to some of the posts on the XBMC and Ubuntu hardware forums. I picked up a lot of pointers.
When using this card with XBMC, There is no need at all for an /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf with probe masks etc. and there is no need for a /etc/asound.conf either (if you are going to just use XBMC like me for your HTPC setup)
All you need is ALSA 1.0.23 installed and at least be running kernel 2.6.34. aplay -l should reveal multiple (4) Nvidia devices as shown in my previous text further down this post, this is fine, however only 1 of these Nvidia devices will actually deliver sound to your TV via HDMI.
In XBMC, goto System Settings, Audio Settings, set device to "Custom" and enter only ONE of the following and then try and play a movie or music in XBMC... (My G210 Nvidia soundcard is card 1 as I also have onboard audio at card 0 so bear this in mind when applying this method to your setup e.g if your HDMI soundcard is card 0 then the first thing to try is plughw:0,3)
plughw:1,3
plughw:1,7
plughw:1,8
plughw:1,9
My PNY G210 card worked using a "Custom" device in XBMC of plughw:1,8
If you are not using XBMC and are using for example a Gnome desktop then you can apparently get sound working by using the text in the code box below in your /etc/asound.conf (this will ensure alsa defaults to the correct card and sub device for hdmi audio) again ensure you are using the correct card number and device number. You can validate this by testing audio as follows from the command line "speaker-test -D plughw:1,8 -r 44100" and simply work your way through the 4 devices until you find the one that works.
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm {
type hw
card 1
device 8
Given the amount of testing and reading I have done on this, I wouldn't be surprised if this method works for any G210 Nvidia cards and HDMI audio, as the logic seems sound (if you'll pardon the pun! :-))
Hopefully someone will find this helpful.

Disabling the motheroard onbonard Intel Audio makes no difference and manually compiling and installing the very latest ALSA driver makes no difference.
Has anyone got HDMI audio working on this card under linux?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer as I have now run out of ideas and if I can't get this to work will have to revert back to my old ASUS EN9400GT card which takes s/pdif from the motherboard for audio out to HDMI.

Works for me too! in my case it was plughw:0,7.

Audio output not working

The audio jack in the back of my iMac is not working. This has happened off and on before but it seems to have totally failed now. There is supposed to be a red light visible inside the jack. I believe the digital output is sharing this jack, there is no red light working now also. I am using a USB to M-Audio box to send my sound to my speakers right nw. I am wondering if anyone has has this problem and got it repaired?
Thanks
Gary

Is your iMac still under warranty? Also, before you take it in for repair, have you tried using Apple-made headphones (like the white ear buds) to test your audio jack?
Also, have you tried using another device to plug into the USB slot you are currently trying to use? To see if it works?
I had a similar problem last year, when I purchased an iMac in Feb 2011. After a few months of usage, there was no audio coming through the headphones I plugged into the audio jack, AND I was having issues with USB devices not being recognized when I plugged it into a certain slot.
After numerous FRUSTRATING visits to the Genius bar where the motherboard and audio cable was completely (and needlessly) replaced, it was finally deternined the actual port with the audio and USB ports was misaligned within the iMac metal shell. So after being initially told that I couldn't get a replacement, they gave me a brand new iMac as it was a physical defect that couldn't be fixed.
Since getting the new replacement, I'm now having minor (and strange) issues with audio again. I suspect it's a common and fundamental flaw with the recent iMacs that Apple seriously needs to address.
Good luck with this - taking in an iMac is terribly stressful. Feel free to mention the possible flaw with the misaligned port - hopefully this will save you the trouble of making numerous trips.

No audio again ... !
