No audio from videos that I drag to a project?

I'm trying to make an iMovie project of music videos, but I just dragged a .mov file onto the iMovie project and while the video loaded successfully, it doesn't have any sound. Is the file format? Or something in iMovie?
Thanks,
John

Hi John
Play Your .mov file with QT-player.
- plays OK then save it as streamingDV and import this (may be You need
the pro upgrade of QuickTime to do this)
not playing OK -
- Did You change the name on the .mov file ? restor original name and retry.
My free guessings

  • Split audio from video doesn't split video at the same point ?

    When I split the audio from a video in GarageBand I would like the video to be split at the same point (so that I can insert audio in between without everything getting out of sync).
    Is this possible?
    (I don't want to use iMovie since that turns my 150 MB mov file into a 8 GB file..take ages to import)
    The reason I want to insert audio in between video fragments is that I am creating an audio description of a tv series for a blind friend. I watch the video, pause that, and describe. Then continue.
    If I can split both the video and "audio from video" at the same point and drag those to the right, so there's room to record something in between (then in the end I'll just drag it all so that the parts join up, delete the video and merge the audio. I hope.)
    Thanks in advance!!

    I figured out how to reset the Youtube video upon hiding thanks to Heathrowe's answer and FigFrance's contribution to the thread found here:

    The secret was adding .empty() to my video container.  Here is my functioning button code:
    Show Video:
    //code to embed youtube into symbol
    var youtube = $("<iframe/>");
    sym.$("video").empty().append(youtube);
    youtube.attr('type', 'text/html');
    youtube.attr('width', '640');
    youtube.attr('height', '360');
    youtube.attr('src', 'https://www.youtube.com/embed/MyFv6UKsW70?rel=0');
    youtube.attr('frameborder', '1');
    youtube.attr('allowfullscreen', '0');
    // Show an element
    sym.$("video").show();
    Hide Video:

  • Ipad background audio from video when multitasking

    Hello.
    This is a request if people can either feedback On their present experience or try this out themselves first and feedback.
    I have an ipad 1. When ever i try to get background audio to play from video when multitasking in another app, eg safari, from any video app including plex, airvideo, vlc,  and the original apple video app. All that occurs is that the icon changes to the ipod and a random song is played from my music library instead of the audio from the video i was watching. This does not matter if the video file is streamed or stored on the ipad itself.
    There is one slight and occasional proviso to this, as at times if the video file is tagged in itunes as 'music' rather than 'movie' or 'tv show' etc then it does on occasions work, and on occasions youtube videos will play in the background. But most of the time these aspects also dont function int he background with the ipod icon instantly replacing which ever video app icon i tried to use in the background.
    Now my sons iphone 4 manages to function correctly and always plays video in the background when multitasking.
    I have asked this question before on this forum, with no response, so booked a visit to my local genius bar. Where they checked my ipad and agreed it wasnt working as ios should, then interestingly they attempted to do the same on an ipad 2 and it failed to work in exactly the same way.  Their response was that this was obviously a fault of the ipad ios, possibly due to the ipad having a separate video app where as the iphone has video within its generic ipod app.
    I did the usual by informing apple via of this bug through the feedback system, and requested that the genius bar do the same. But having thought about this, and failed to see any other users on this forum who are also puzzled at this lack of what i think is an important function, i wonder if this means that i am the only one who likes to listen to video when im browsing, so dont need it, or wether everyone elses ipads function as ios should do, and for some reason both my ipad, and the ipad 2 tested in the shop are at fault.
    So can i request if others reading this can have a go to see if their ipad will play background audio from video when multitasking, or if the same problem occurs.
    Thanks very much this is really appreciated.

    Oops clicked the wrong button, I meant to click a 'helpful answer' as it  hard to have a correct answer to such a question.
    But thanks for the replies.
    It looks like this is a bug in ios solely for the ipad, as it does work fine on the iphone  although wonder which way the ipod touch will perform. interestingly it looks like i may also be in the minority of wishing to listen to video files as I browse:)
    Which probably means apple may never get around to sorting it, as no one else uses the function.
    Anyway thanks for the replies, if any one else wants to see the bug have a go and comment, i find it funny how I seem to be the only one to have found it to date.

  • Extracting audio from video clip to use as narration?

    Hi there,
    I have a video clip in which I want to take the audio of actor speaking and put it onto another video.
    I.e. he is speaking about walking in the park. I want to take him speaking about walking in the park and put it onto the clip where he is actually walking in the park.
    How do I do this in premiere elements 10?

    Hi Bill,
    Thanks for the quick response. I guess my question now is how would I do those two things?
    In terms of exporting the audio, where can I find that option when I'm on timeline?
    What do you mean by "Alt-click" and what is a "muxed file"?
    Thanks again,

    Welcome to the forum. There are several ways to accomplish this, and your choice might well rest on how you like to work, and what you are doing, such as Deleteing Video. First, you could Export/Share just the Audio as a PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit, from your Timeline, and Import that into a New Project, where the Audio WAV file would be used. OTOH, you could Atl-click on the Video portion of the muxed file, and Delete the Video, leaving only the Audio portion. Good luck, Hunt

  • Splitting Audio From Video

    Hello
    I'm having trouble splitting audio from video. I currently have Final Cut Pro 6 from the final cut studio package, and my issue is that my audio is not synchronized with my video. The audio is coming in too early for the video and the voices of the people in the video do not match up. How can I fix this problem? How can I move the audio without moving the video as well?

    Select the clip and hit command L to separate the tracks.
    The real issue is why the footage is out of sync.

    If all you want is to create a backup of some file you can do:public class Foo
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            Foo f = new Foo();
            f.createBackup("something.xls");
        public void createBackup(String inFile) {

            FileOutputStream out = null;
            try {
                in = new FileInputStream(inFile);
                out = new FileOutputStream(inFile + ".bak");
                int read;

  • Removing Audio From Video (Problem 2) !!!HELP!!!

    I have succesfully managed to remove audio and add new audio to an (avi) video. However, when I tried to do the same thing with an new (mpeg) video/ soundtrack. Logic did not allow me to extract audio from video or give me the option to de-select audio tracks when bouncing. So when I extract video with audio I get the old audio track plus the new audio combined. Is it do with the video format? can I convert video formats in logic? many thanks, Ben.

    open in quicktime, then click save as and save as a .mov file. This should work. Not sure why this is happening though. Let me know if this works...
    Please remember the helpful and solved problem....

  • Separate audio from video - I want BOTH an audio and video file

    Hi,
    I would like to separate audio from video - I want BOTH an audio and video file.
    I don't think this can be done without additional software, but if it can, pointing me in the right direction would be much appreciated.
    Brandon

    You need Quicktime 7.6 Pro. Control+J to bring up the property window. In the property window is an extract button. Click on either the video or audio and click to the extract button.
    You'll find Quicktime 7 in your Utilities folder. If Quicktime 7 isn't install in the Utilities folder you need to install it from you OS installation disk, in the optional installations folder.
    If you don't have Quicktime Pro you need to buy it from the Apple store.

  • If I barrow an image from iPhoto, that is drag it to another file or the desktop it seems to half disappear.  It still shows until I try to enlarge it then I get a triangle exclamation mark in the enlarged field, once I return to Photos or an Album it is

    If I barrow an image from iPhoto, that is drag it to another file or the desktop it seems to half disappear.  It still shows until I try to enlarge it then I get a triangle exclamation mark in the enlarged field, once I return to Photos or an Album it is there.  However it can no longer be dragged into another file.  How can I recover these images?  Is there a better way to duplicate a image to locate in outside of iPhoto?
    I never had this problem in previous versions of iPhoto.

    The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the link to the original file.
    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later...
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • Separating audio from video track

    I'm going to try and download video from a camcorder to iMovie for the first time. I recorded a kids concert with my camcorder and want to separate the audio from the video to burn just the audio onto a CD. How do I do that?

    I don't want to burn the entire soundtrace of what I recorded, just one song of the performance I recorded.
    I can only tell you what I would probably do in your situation:
    1) I would import only the portion i wanted. You should be able to do this by using the iMovie '08 manual option setting. Simply plug in your camcorder and when the Import window opens, set the "manual" switch. Press the "Fast Forward" button on your camcorder to move the tape to the approximate location of the content you want. Press the "Stop" button, switch to the "Play" mode and press and hold the "Fast Forward" and/or "Rewind" controls on your camcorder to locate a point on your tape just prior to the song you want. As soon as your release the "Fast Forward" or "Rewind" camcorder button, press the "Import" icon in the iMovie '08 "Import" window to begin your actual capture. When the song ends, press the "Done" icon in the iMovie '08 "Import" window to terminate capture. At this point you can close iMovie '08 as soon as it will let you do so.
    2) Locate the "Event" folder to which the clip was imported and move the file to your desktop or other convenient location on your hard drive. If this was the only clip in the "Event" folder, you can delete the "Event" folder. If you imported the clip to an "Event" folder in use, delete Thumbnail/Cache folders to force iMovie '08 to re-generate the "Event" folder contents without the clip you just moved.
    3) Open your clip in either QT Pro or MPEG Streamclip. Trim your clip by using the Left/Right arrow keys to move the playhead to the exact frame you wish to begin your audio recording and press the "I" ("In") key. Now drag the playhead to the end of the clip and use the Left/Right arrow keys to locate the exact frame where you wish to terminate your audio recoding and press the "O" ("Out") key. The progress bar should now reflect the "trimmed" content designated for conversion.
    4) Now convert your file to audio. In QT Pro, select the "Sound to AIFF" File menu Export option. In MPEG Streamclip, select the "Export Audio..." File menu option which should default to "AIFF" but can be reset to MP3 is so desired. At this time simply select your destination location and press the "OK" or "Save" button for whiever application you are using to begin your conversion.
    5) Burn the resulting file to CD using whatever utility/work flow is normal for you.

  • How do I unlock audio from video in iMovie '11?

    I've transferred some old videos to iMovie '11 using an ADVC-55 and there are some places where the audio has slipped out of sync with the images.
    I have extracted the audio from these clips, so I can move it along the timeline to get it back into sync with the pictures - however, I cannot find how to unlock the extracted audio from the video, so I can move it along the timeline.
    I've tried everything I can think of and iMovie's Help function doesn't reveal the answer.
    This would have been easy in earlier versions of iMovie, but it's got me stumped in this version. Can anybody help, please?

    AppleMan1958 wrote:
    Just drag the audio left or right.
    Select a portion, then right-click/Split Clip, or EDIT/SPLIT CLIP. Then detach audio and drag it left or right.
    This was exactly my problem - that didn't work!
    I've realised now, though, that it was because I'd cut the clips so precisely that the audio couldn't be dragged either way - there was nowhere for it to be dragged to. I added some black space at the beginning and ends of the images and all now works OK

  • Splice audio from video then re-join

    This is going to be hard to describe but I'm just wondering if this is possible with iMovie in an easier way.
    I have 2 clips...one is text the other is video from my camera.
    I want the audio from the camera clip to play during the text clip and then once the camera clip starts...the audioi should just continue in the same spot as where it's at.
    IE:
    Text clip is 4 seconds. Camera clip is 10 seconds.
    So while text clip plays for 4 seconds. I want the first 4 seconds of the camera clip to play (the video part of this clip can be discarded.
    Then once the 4 seconds is over....i want the full camera clip to play.
    I think I could probably just slice the pieces and made it work..but just wondering if there is an easier way to do this in iMovie?

    This can be easily done using iMovie's "Cutaway" feature.
    Firstly, in iMovie's Preferences (menu item iMovie>Preferences) check the box for Show Advanced Features (or similar wording - I don't have iMovie open at the moment). This will enable a range of extra features, including Cutaway, that are not available when iMovie is running with just the default settings.
    Drag your camera clip into the project (if not already there). Now drag the Text clip directly on top of the camera clip, as close to the start of the camera clip as possible. As you drop the clip, a pop-up menu will appear. Select Cutaway from the list of items in this menu. Double-clicking on the Cutaway clip (the Text clip) will bring up the Clip Inspector. Here you can make other adjustments, as required. You may need to drag the Cutaway clip to the left slightly to line it up with the exact starting point of the camera clip.
    The clips will play seamlessly, with the camera clip's audio being retained over the full duration of the two clips.
