No audio option when rendering

I am useing ae 6. I cant get any audio to output. I have not used it in while but i recall there being an audio option in the render q. It was allways unchecked and i had to check it to have audio in the final render. Now there is no option for audio anything when i put the comp in the render q. Any ideas?

Could also be aa compatibility issue... You know, AE vewrsion from the ston age on modern operating system or the latest version of Quicktime might not work that well...

AAC Audio disappears when rendering iPhone screen capture

I recorded some gameplay footage using Yosemite's Quicktime Movie Recording feature. The audio is there when I play the quicktime, but when I drop it into Final Cut Pro 7, it wants to render the audio. I render it, but the audio is gone. Any way to have it convert the audio?
Thanks
Bob

I'm sorry, but that just isn't true in my experience. FCP7 works fine for me with h264. Maybe if you need it to be super high-quality you have to use Pro-Res, I don't know. But I edit with h264 in FCP7 all the time, I have for years. It is great for editing little iPhone app demo videos. And the files are sooooo much smaller.
There is something else at issue. I think a recent Yosemite update must have broken something. I got it to work simply by opening the new files in Quicktime Player 7 and saving them back out. No conversion. I don't even have to save it as a copy, just 'Save' on the original file! So funny. They work fine now in FCP 7.
Thanks for your reply anyway.

IMovie audio issues. Fine in timeline, but when rendering to iTunes or Media Browser, audio from certain portions of movie files are heard in places where it shouldn't be !

iMovie 11 audio issues. Fine in timeline, but when rendering to iTunes or Media Browser, audio from certain portions of movie files are heard in places where it shouldn't be !
I have created a project where I have a montage of photos and video clips edited together with music under. Some audio portions of the video files are being muted in some areas and those portions are being heard in another part of the project. This is not for all video clips only certain ones.
The project plays fine in the timeline, but when I render the project thru iTunes or Media Browser, this is when the project goes corrupt.
I tried detaching the Audio from the video clips and this somewhat worked, but the original problem still exists with certain audio still being heard where it's not supposed to be.

I have a fix - or rather, a workaround.
WARNING: It is lengthy, but still far better than starting a new project from scratch.
I had this same issue and none of my transitions/clips were at custom speeds, nor did I have anything else weird going on. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do within iMovie to fix this, at least there wasn't for me. iMovie is BY FAR the buggiest software I have ever used and if you haven't already spent hours slaving away on a project, you are so much better off using just about anything else to edit your video.
...But let's assume you have already spent many hours working on your project and you don't want to start all over. Well then, you have at least one option.
It's a pain in the neck, but it's infinitely better than restarting your project from scratch.
This will require:
A software called Soundflower (which is free) and some kind of audio editing software (I use Logic, but really any should work).
1.) You're going to need to export your video with the messed up audio. Typically if you're audio is messing up, you're video is at least usually working just fine (at least it always does for me).
2.) You're going to need to open that video in your audio software and import only the audio. If your software doesn't give you this option, then you're going to need to record the audio from your video using the audio software and Soundflower. You can find tutorials on how to do this, but it's honestly pretty straightforward once you start playing around with you Mac's audio I/O settings. Remember to have your computer's volume all the way up when doing this.
3.) Watch/listen to your video and make notes of where the audio errors occur. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND writing down times too, as they will be extremely helpful later.
4.) Now were going to rip some working audio from the iMovie project itself. Go back into your iMovie project and only play back audio while in the edit window for this step. Do NOT play your project back in full screen.
This part is key: if you try to play back your project from the beginning the audio will usually still mess up. So, what you're gonna have to do is go back on your edit window timeline right before these errors occur and play that specific clip back while recording this working audio with Soundflower and your audio software. Essentially we're only recording the parts of the audio where these errors occur, so try to do this in order if you can. Try to leave several seconds of audio in before the error - that way we can use it as reference when we construct our new audio track.
5.) Now in your audio software you should have your original error-filled audio track and the new clips that we just captured. This part can be painstaking if you're not familiar with audio editing softwares, but as you'll learn, it's really not that hard.
You're going to look at your original audio track and compare it to your new working audio clips. You should be able to notice where those new clips are supposed to go by looking at the identical (or close to identical) waveform shapes in your original audio track. The two should correspond with one another. If you don't understand what I mean right now, you will when you start playing around with the audio. This is why marking times is very important.
Take your new clips and split them up if you haven't already, that way you can drag them around and edit them separately from one another. Essentially your going to line these new clips up with original and then replace the original parts with new ones.
We need to get this as precise as possible, so start off by getting them as close as you can with your naked eye, and then use a zoom tool to zoom in as much as possible so that you can get them lined up PERFECTLY, or at least extremely close. In some softwares you can just drag these new clips on top of the old track, but most of the time you will need to actually cut out the old piece and replace it with the new one. In doing this, zoom in and make sure that you are NOT cutting out a bigger space than your new clip will fill - otherwise you will have small gaps in your audio.
VERY IMPORTANT: Also make sure that this new audio track starts at the EXACT SAME time as your original - otherwise your new audio will be out of sync.
I know this part can really suck if you're not used to audio editing, but at this point, there is little other choice.
6.) Once you are done with this, export your newly pieced together audio track.
7.) Now open iMovie and create a NEW project. Re-import the video that you exported earlier that has the messed up audio. This might take a while, so just be patient.
8.) Then right click the clip and select "Detach Audio". This will do just that - allowing you to edit the audio separately from the video. Now delete this audio.
9.) Now, import the new, perfect audio track that we just made and make sure that it starts at the start of the project. Make sure it's in sync and that everything works.
Now just export your new video with the working audio and you should be done. Since we have given iMovie the audio with no editing actually being done in iMovie, it does not have to generate its own audio now and you should have absolutely no errors now - unless there is some that you forgot to take out earlier.
YOU'RE FINALLY DONE!!!
I know this entire process *****, but if you're that far into your project, there is little else that you can do. Now you've learned your lesson:
DON'T USE IMOVIE EVER AGAIN.
I hope this helped!

WAV Audio Track 2 silent when rendered

Using CS4/ i7 & 8 gig ram.
Thanks so much for your help in the past. I've just noticed something strange.
On the past couple of projects, the following happens:
Using Bill's suggestion, I changed the mp3 over to WAV with Audacity. Everything works better. However, there is another issue.
I have imported a WAV music track into my project and placed it on audio track 2. When I first start further editing on the project, the audio from track 2 plays fine.
However, when I render the video, and audio render follows, track 2 does not play. Track 1 plays fine.
1. I can go to the preview panel and place the same audio file on track 3 and it will play fine................ or,
2. I can exit from PP and when I restart PP and reopen the project, the track 2 audio will play fine. If I do not render the audio when I render the video,Track 2 plays fine............
Why would rendering the audio shut off the sound????? Any way around this situation?
Tks, Tom B.

You do not need Audacity. Premiere has a feature called Render and Replace.
Is this rendering the timeline or exporting out of Premiere?
You can do whatever works best.
Select audio clip, go to Clip, Audio Options, Render and Replace. THis will render the audio part to a wave generated by Premiere.
See how that works.

Help!! idvd freezing when rendering audio

PLEASE..I need help!! I make a movie for my students at the end of the school year. I put together a movie in imovie and then sent it to idvd. When I finished with the idvd part and went to burn it, my idvd would stop responding after about an hour when it came to the final part when rendering the audio. I find I have to force quit the program and start over. I've tried it 4 times and it happens every time in the same spot. I never had this happen before. Thanks for any help you can give me!!

Like I said!
This question is frequently asked!
iDVD is probably not 'hanging'. Disregard any messages that iDVD is not responding. It is. Do not force quit.
Encoding audio is the slowest part of rendering, and can take many hours. Great patience, even an intermittent alternative hobby, is called for.
Make sure no other application is running, make sure you have not set the hard disk to go to sleep and that the screen saver will not come on. Leave it overnight, or have a 36 hole game of golf.
Sooner or later iDVD will finish!

All of a sudden audio needs re-rendering when i do ANYTHING at all...

I've had to rerender the audio (from the beeping) after I did something to the audio (i.e. increased the base volume levels), but editing the associated video never made me re-render the audio before. For some reason, now the audio needs rerendered after each edit, or even just when I move through the project. I've been editing for weeks now and I have not seen this before. I'm working from the same batch of .dv video. I don't think I've done anything differently, why is FCE acting differently and thwarting my progress.
Help.

yes, this was high-8 footage digitized via imovie.
i have it in hour long .dv files.
i'm multiple files into the project, following the same protocol I have been from the beginning, and for some reason, now its needing re-rendered more often than previously.
previously, audio needed re-rendered at least twice, once when i started the new sequence and once after i changed the audio levels.
now it needs re-rendered on a hair trigger.
when i click between tracks or move through the video at all, or breathe, the whole dern audio needs re-rendered again.
what is different? what am i doing different between this sequence and the last?
the last clip was .dv and imported from imovie in the same batch. i don't get it.

File Not Found Error When Rendering Motion Menu

Hi there.
I'm attempting to render a motion menu and keep getting the error "file not found". All of the necessary files are available and no specific missing file is mentioned.
The background video is a .m2v, and there is a .wav audio file too. They are 42 seconds long.
I tried other Encore projects and 2 others are doing the same thing, or coming up with a 'General Error'.
I have cleaned the Database in the Media Cache. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Encore. There are no updates available.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
David

Yeah, it would have taken me quite a while to redo the menus completely! So I was very thankful for the save to menu template option.
When I (not recently, thank goodness!) have a project I suspect of corruption, I create a new project, and just "import as menu" from the old menu subdirectory. The method you used deletes the menus, so exporting the menus helps.
Mac OS 10.6.8
That's Snow Leopard, right?
Actually, I'm not really sure about Encore terminology (this was my first project), but the only motion I have in my menus is the line that appears under the button text when that button is highlighted. At one point I had the photo buttons (for videos) set to animate, but I removed that option.
A highlight is just a highlight, not "motion." Animated buttons, when rendered as the menu, are actually a video background, so that was a motion menu.
All 30 slideshows are actually individual video timelines. They were created and exported from Photosho Lightroom 3.
In Encore terminology, those are just videos - many Encore users choose to do slideshows as videos.
I had originally tried creating each one as a slideshow from within Encore, but I was DEEPLY dismayed by how slow Encore became, evetually locking up at least once per hour. It was ridiculous, even taking into account the fact that it is not a 64-bit program. I planned to leave 2 of the songs as Encore slideshows (Lightroom can't do Pan/Zoom), but in the end I had to replace them with mp4s because the slideshows just would not play. Really, it was about 11 wasted days plus 4 productive days to get me through the project!
Encore has a variety of problems with slideshows, but I suspect from your description that you were using very large images. Scaling them down a bit can improve performance.

How to eliminate empty node space from tree when rendered property is false

Hi
I have created a menu Tree for my ADF BC application while working in JDev 10.1.3.3.
I have tried two methods, first is by creating a menu model as discussed in example in ADF Developers Guide Book Section 19.2.1. Second by creating two view objects and creating the menu tree from my database table.
Depending on the logged in user I want to decide whether to show or not to show a menu tree option to the user. For this purpose I have implemented a function in a managed bean that calls a pl/sql stored procedure to decide if the user has access to a certain component. In first case I have set the rendered property of the menu item to #{menuTree.shown}, where shown is an attribute in the menu model whose value is properly set using java functions that call pl/sql function in turn. In second method, I have also tried to set the rendered property and calling a function that returns true or false based on if the user has access to the menu option.
Problem
When rendered property is returned as false, although the menu option is not displayed but an empty space is displayed in my tree and remaining nodes and/or menu options are displayed with an ugly gap.
How I can remove this unwanted gap, is there a way?
Regards,
Amir
1st option:
My menu tree:
<af:menuTree var="menuTree" value="#{menuModel.model}">
<f:facet name="nodeStamp">
<af:commandMenuItem text="#{menuTree.label}"
action="#{menuTree.getOutcome}"
_rendered="#{menuTree.shown}_"/>
</f:facet>
</af:menuTree>
2nd option:
<af:tree value="#{bindings.MainMenuView.treeModel}" var="node">
<f:facet name="nodeStamp">
<af:switcher facetName="#{node.hierType.name}">
<f:facet name="MainMenuViewNode">
<af:outputText value="#{node.Name}" _rendered="#{userInfo.mainNodeOk}"_ />
</f:facet>
<f:facet name="SubMenuViewNode">
<af:commandLink text="#{node.Name}" _rendered="#{userInfo.mainNodeOk}_">
<af:setActionListener from="#{node.destinationUrl}"
to="#{menuTree.getOutcome}"/>
</af:commandLink>
</f:facet>
</af:switcher>

Can iTunes give audio notification when device sync finishes?

I'd like to get audio feedback when my device sync completes. So far, I haven't found any setting in Mavericks setting or in iTunes settings to do configure it to make a sound when it finished syncing.
Is there something that I missed, or is it impossible?

There is currently no option to set that would provide a sound when the sync is complete. You can send you suggestion to Apple, however:

When rendered, still images appear in low quality

Hello everyone.
I'm facing an interesting dilemna with Adobe Premiere Elements 8. It usually works fine for me, and with time I have learned to fix most of the details that usually bother unexperienced users such as me.
What happens is that I'm importing still images (JPEG) to my video, and when rendered they're final quality appears to be so low. I mean, you can see the pixels very large, square-like, you know... as if I had a small image and had it stretched out a lot, but that was not the case at all.
I never had this problem before, and I can't recall anything different on my part in this new video.
Any ideas as to how to fix this?
Thanks everyone.

Hi everybody,
It is a bit late to join this discussion but for vacation reasons I didn't follow the PE-Forum for a while.
I think I have a comparable problem like fmrees: Since a couple of days the resolution of the Preview in PE8 is rather poor. Unfortunately I can't say exactly when it startet. Maybe it begun after I rendered the project.
After having read this issue I deleted the rendered files, looked at the preview: still the same. Re-rendering didn't improve the result.
The difference between the problem of fmrees and mine is: I do not use at all still images. The only video sources are AVI-Files from MiniDV.
I looked at other PE-projects I didn't touch for several week: I have the same problem! So probably it is something in the PE- or project-settings, but I have no idea what it could be (I am rather a newbee in PE).

Changing animation frame rate when rendering in photoshop does not change the length of the video?

I made a walk cycle animation in Photoshop CS6 and want to render it into a quicktime format. I'd like it to be 12 fps, but when I rendered it at 12 fps the video seemed to be missing frames, and the video was 3 seconds long. I have 98 frames to my animation; doing the math, at 12 fps it should be 8 seconds long. Not 3.
I was confused and for curiosity's sake I rendered the video at 6 fps, trying to really slow it down. The video ended up being STILL 3 seconds long and only maybe 20 frames. I was missing literally 70 frames. I'm so upset with this rendering thing, I could chuck my computer at the wall.
Does anybody know of a solution to this?
edit: If it means anything, I've tried rendering it straight from the frame view and the timeline view. Each time I render it I have the timeline frame rate match the rendering frame rate as well.

Photoshop CS6 and CC support two types of animation Frame animations and a Video Timeline
Changing the frame rate should not change the length of a video timeline. It should just change the number of frames that are rendered. To change the length of a video you need to change the length of the video timeline. If you increase the length of the timeline and there is audio I'm quite sure there will be a problem with it, The Video part will most likely be better then the sound. The required number of extra frames can be generated however the video may look like slow motion. If you decrease the length the motion will speed up. The length of a video is normally done be editing video clips which are trimmed and stitched together to get the desired duration. Not normally done by altering the duration of a clip.
The duration a of Frame animation is the sum of the times each frame is displayed. In a frame animation the length of time a frame is displayed can be varied it not a normal motion picture video. To have a smooth frame animation you need a sufficient number of frames that are different from each other to show smooth motion. You can use Photoshop Frame animation tween feature to have Photoshop manufacture frames to help with a smoothing the animation. Once you have a frame animation the length with the motion you want you can have Photoshop convert it to a video timeline and render a normal motion picture video. It will not have audio but you can add audio to it.

Premiere Pro CC speedchange when rendering effects

Why does Premiere Pro CC keep changing the speed of my clips when I render them? But only those have effects on them like Auto-Color etc.
The 720p 120fps footage comes from a GoPro Hero 3 Black Edition.
If I add an effect to a clip, when renderering PP reduces the fps from 120 to 25 so that the actual speed is about a fifth of what I wanted but with the same duration. If I speed it up manually afterwards the duration shortens and I am not allowed to extend the clip further than what was rendered.
I have no problem with a reduced framerate, as in the end it will be rendered anyway to 25fps, but I don't get why PP does the speedchange instead of calculating it down.
Maybe the answer is pretty simple but I really don't have any clue.

I don't know why but it was linked with the 25fps settings in the sequence options, with 30fps it works without any problems.

AV sync problems when rendering Quicktime in PE 8

I have a simple problem when rendering to Quicktime format fromPremere Elements 8: The AV sync goes out of whack.
I have tried rendering:
(a). To MPEG - output is fine.
(b). To WMV - output is fine.
(c). MOV - av sync errors
I am assembling about five clips. The first clip plays fine. The AV sync problems starts at the second clip - the audio is a good 3 seconds or so ahead of the video.
Everything is fine in the editing window.
I am running in Windows 7. To make sure it is not the player, I have played the quicktime output in Windows Media and itunes and the same problem is in both.
Has anyone seen this issue?
Thanks.

Hi Steve,
Sorry for the confusion. It a sensible suggestion to identify the input formats and output formats and I would most appreciate your inputs to this issue because I admit that I am really struggling here to get a workflow going.
Input formats:
1. MJPEG 1280x720P at 24 frames per second (from a Panasonic Lumix Camera)
2. WMV 1280x720P at 24 frames per second from output of other programs (which only support wmv output at High def output)
3. MPEG2 1280x720P at 24 frames per second (and sometimes 25 frames per second) from other sources
Target output formats are:
1. Blu-Ray
2. MP4 container format @ 1280x720P for playing on my Apple TV
3. DVD (ordinary plain PAL DVD at 720x576P at 25 frames per second)
My goal is have Pre Elements 8 Project settings in High Def and then to simply target all three outputs from one project so that I do not have to redo all of the projects with different project settings.
Workflow is in two stages:
Step 1 is to create one project for each Chapter and save to disk: The inputs are from all three input formats that I identified above (High Def - MJPEG, WMV, and MPEG2). I would like to edit, mix the audio, and then save each chapter to disk. The format in which I save this is preferably some kind of high def format that can be edited easily at a later time.
Step 2 is to create the Project that is used to assemble each chapter for final output: This is the project where I put in Chapter marks, create menus, etc. The target outputs from this chapter are Blu Ray (high def), AppleTV (high def), and PAL DVD (Standard def).
In all cases, I set up my Project Settings as HDV-AVI for internal rendering because all inputs are high def and most target outputs are high def.
Issues that I am dealing with:
1. I cannot figure out the best export format to go from Step 1 to Step 2. HDV-AVI doesn't seem to be available as an export format. Basically, I am looking for an export format that puts the least strain on resources when they are read in for Step 2 and retains the highest quality.
2. Most of my inputs are 24 frames per second but the internal rendering for Pre Elements 8 seems to be 25 frames per second. Frame rate conversion can be quite tricky and can put significant strain on resources, but it is not clear if this is straining Pre Elements 8 or not. It does seem to be. I am happy to convert my files into a format that puts the least strain on Pre Elements 8 internal rendering and yet produces the best output.
Note: If you ask - why do I do this in two steps? It is because I am always putting a strain on system resources when operating in high def. Unless I am careful, I get a message that Pre Element is "low on resources" followed by a crash shortly thereafter. I have Win7 32 bit, 4 GB RAM, no other programs running, all drivers updated with the most recent version (yes - even the NVIDIA driver) so there really isn't anything else that I can do in this area.
So I am looking for suggestions in the following areas:
1. An alternative workflow that produces the three high def outputs with the three high def inputs defined above that doesn't cause Pre Elements to continually go low on resources and crash.
OR
2. A recommendation for a high def format that puts minimal strain on Pre Element resources?
Thanks!

FCP 5.0.4 freezes when rendering or converting to quicktime on my macbookpr

FCP 5.0.4 freezes when rendering or converting to quicktime on my intel macbookpro. It really is very bothersome because I can't complete projects without rendering. I recently was just told that we should not download any updates at all for any appliction unless it is absolutely neccessary. Is there any truth to this. Would I be better off doing a complete erase and install to get rid of all updates that I have installed. My mac book is a 2.4 ghz with 2 gigs of ram, 200 gb hd, and 512 of vram. Help! My dead line is approaching.

What you've heard about Academic versions is correct. They are not upgradable.
If you want to run a version of FCP that is compatible, you have two options.
1. purchase a used PPC computer (G4/G5) and run your version of FCP 5 on it.
or
2. purchase a version of FCP designed to work on intel processors (v5.1 or higher).
#2 can be satisfied by purchasing a used version of 5.1 (full retail install) on ebay. Alternatively, if you qualify for academic pricing, FCS3 can be had for around $900 rather than the $1300 for the retail version.
On another subject, the MacBook is hardly the ideal editing platform no matter what version of FCP you are running ...

Crashes when rendering /Realtek drivr problem

hi,
love 6.5 then 7 but Pro is driving me potty... My system keeps crashing when rendering and also - or maybe becaused of?! - I keep getting 'can't playback audio / audio inputs are deactivated / adobe default sound drivers are in half duplex mode'. Are these problems linked? I've built up a large project - if I reinstall Pro will I lose it? I know I can't open it in 7.0 - pity! All help appreciated thankyou.
Ps ram is not a problem. I'm on vista.
