No sound recording avi files using Camileo S20

Hi all
I got the s20 on thursday and it has been a nightmare. Before the sound went i couldn't get the video files to work in Movie Edit Pro or sony vegas.
It didn't even work in the Arcsoft software that came with it.
I have tried it on three differant computers and it keeps showing up with no audio.
I have tried all the codecs you can think of and none of them worked. Now i cant hear any sound even when i play it back on the S20.
I dont really now what to do. I have two other hd camcorders and they work fine on my computer.
I have had to re-format my computer as the codecs had messed it up. If i had my way i would send it back and be done with it but i have to wait until tomorrow before i can contact this number which i have been given.
What i want to know is:
Is there any way i can get the avi files to work in sony vegas and movie edit pro 15 plus?
Any help or advise would be welcome.
thanks
regards
Chrisc74

>Is there any way i can get the avi files to work in sony vegas and movie edit pro 15
As far as I know the S20 creates the h264 encoded videos.
This means that you need the H264 codex in order to get video and sound on your notebook.
I cannot say anything about the sony vegas or movie edit pro software because I dont use it.
But I edited my videos using the common widows movie maker and everything was ok.

Read an avi file using "Read from binary file" vi

My question is how to read an avi file using "Read from binary file" vi .
My objective is to create a series of small avi files by using IMAQ AVI write frame with mpeg-4 codec of 2 second long (so 40 frames in each file with 20 fps ) and then send them one by one so as to create a stream of video. The image are grabbed from USB camera. If I read those frames using IMAQ AVI read frame then compression advantage would be lost so I want to read the whole file itself.
I read the avi file using "Read from binary file" with unsigned 8 bit data format and then sent to remote end and save it and then display it, however it didnt work. I later found that if I read an image file using "Read from binary file" with unsigned 8 bit data format and save it in local computer itself , the format would be changed and it would be unrecognizable. Am I doing wrong by reading the file in unsined 8 bit integer format or should I have used any other data types.
I am using Labview 8.5 and Labview vision development module and vision acquisition module 8.5
Your help would be highly appreciated.
Thank you.
Solved!

Hello,
Check out the (full) help message for "write to binary file"
The "prepend array or string size" input defaults to true, so in your example the data written to the file will have array size information added at the beginning and your output file will be (four bytes) longer than your input file. Wire a False constant to "prepend array or string size" to prevent this happening.

Newbie question: Why is "learn sound model" greyed out when trying to remove background sounds in a file using the Spectral Frequency display?

I am trying to remove background sounds in a file using the Spectral Frequency display. The first edit on a new file, this process works fine:
1. use brush to cover sound
2. right click, learn sound model
3. effects/noise-reduction-restoration/Sound Remover
The next time I try to remove another sound in the file, "learn sound model" is greyed out. I have to close the file and reopen to be able to make another edit. What on earth is going on? Can it only learn one sound model or something?
I'm a newbie, so thanks in advance for your advice!

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

How to export/watch .avi files using Quicktime Pro

Hi there.
I've got Quicktime Pro and I'm trying to convert .avi files so I can play them on my iPhone. I open up the .avi file in Quicktime and then slect the Movie to iPhone option.
It will take about 20 mins or so, but when I open the file all I get is a white screen even though the timer is showing that the movie is playing.
I can't even watch .avi files using Quicktime as all I get is a black screen.
Could someone please help?
Thanks

Thanks, but unfortuntately that didnt work. MPEG Streamclip couldn't play any of the .avi files, it still came up with a white screen while playing.
I tried this with a number of .avi files but I had the same problem.

How to play Windows AVI file using Teststand

Hi,
I'm trying to play a Windows AVI (*.avi) file using the Windows Media Player, launched by
a Teststand CallExecutable type step.
When the step executes, the Windows Media Player app. starts o.k., but the file to be played
causes an error which states the file type is not recognised.
Yet if the AVI file is selected in Windows Explorer, it runs fine, i.e. the file type is associated with
Windows Media Player.
If the 1st error is ignored, a 2nd is displayed. This states the file cannot be played, and suggests that
the path may be incorrect or the server is unavailable.
When configuring the Teststand CallExecutable step, the Argument Expression field contains the full
absolute address of the AVI (*.avi) file to load and play.
I have also tried using an expression and also placing the AVI file in the same directory as the
Windows Media Player .exe, but the file will still not play.
If I use the Run utility from the Windows Start menu, I can enter the same details on a single command
line, and the AVI (*.avi) loads and plays just fine.
What should I do to get Windows Media Player to run the AVI (*.avi) file using the Teststand CallExecutable step ?
thanks,
Gary.

FYI, with TS 3.5, the MessagePopup step can also display html files. The html file can reference the player control and tell it to run immediately. The html code looks like this:

How to deal with scratchy sound in AVI file from BetaCam masters

Recently, I got out some BetaCam edit masters of videos I produced in the 1990s. The university instructional technology center transfered the masters to Mini-DV tape, then made AVI files from the Mini-DV tapes. The AVI files sound fine when I play them from my hard drive, but when I use the AVI files in Premiere Pro CS4 and 1.5, the sound is scratchy--sort of like a scratchy record. So then I got the Mini-DV tape and decided to import the program, playing it on my Canon GL1 camcorder and capturing it in PP CS4. But the sound is even worse. Please advise. These programs are too important to not be able to convert them to YouTube and DVD formats.

If things work OK in "programA" but not in "programB" (B being Premiere) that is usually a codec issue
AVI is simply a wrapper... what is the codec?
The first question at the end of this link has a link to the free GSPOT to find the codec
First, work through all of the steps here http://ppro.wikia.com/wiki/Troubleshooting
If your problem isn't fixed after you follow all of the steps, report back with the DETAILS asked for in the questions at the end of that link

No Sound playing AVI files in Quicktime Pro - help!

Help! I just bought QT Pro for Windows(Xp) to convert my AVI files to Mpeg4 for my Ipod. The Apple Store sales guy promised it could be done. I see video but no sound on all of the AVI files. For example, on 2 of my AVI video files, according to Gspot, the video codecs are "divx 3 low motion" and "Xvid" and they are installed on my pc. According to Gspot, the audio codec required is "0x0055(MP3) ID'd as MPEG-1 Layer 3" which can play on
--> {Fraunhofer IIS MPEG Layer-3 Codec (advanced)}
--> {MPEG Layer-3 Decoder}
which are both installed on my pc, yet I have no sound. I am stuck! The bit rate is 128. Should I be using another audio codec??? Where can I get it? Help! Anyone?

Some of the avi files created on PCs use variable bit rate mp3 souind. QT will not play that type of mp3 in avi files.
One way to deal with the issue is to convert the mp3 to a QT-friendly format. You can try this process, using this freeware Windows program: VirtualDub
Open the problem file in VirtualDub. Set the Video mode to Direct Stream Copy. That will copy the video to the new file with no change. Set the Audio to Full Processor Mode. Then set the compression to IMA compression. Now use Save As Avi in the File menu to make a new file with a new name. Since only the audio is being changed it is a fairly rapid process.
One last thing. To do this you do have to have the Windows codecs for those video formats installed. That is, you have to be able to play them in Windows Media Player. QT uses completely different codecs.

No sound for AVI files with Quicktime

I know this is a well discussed topic, but I can't seem to fix this problem.
I upgraded to Quicktime 7.5 and quickly found that I cannot get audio/sound out of my AVI files (most are short clips taken with my Casio Exlim Digital Camera). I tried installing Perian, but that didn't work. I tried reinstalling QT, and that didn't work. I tried repairing disk permissions and that didn't work. Finally, I thought perhaps I had a bad AppleIntermediateCodec file. I downloaded version 1.0.1 from Apple, but it won't let me load it - acts like its an update to an existing file, but the file is not on my system. Here is the contents of my Library/Componets folder:
A52Codec.component
AC3MovieImport.component
AppleIntermediateCodec.component
AudioCodecs.component
file.temp
Flip4Mac WMV Advanced.component
Flip4Mac WMV Export.component

I am the admin on the system, but I have two other accounts for my sons. Can anyone out there give me a clue as to what I should do next? Thanks.

I am having the same problem. But it's even weirder. Any .avi file I created using my Flip Ultra camera will play with sound. One or two .avi movies I've d/l'd from the 'net will also play with sound. The remainder will not play with sound on QT (7.5). I have VLC, Real and DivX Player loaded, and all .avi files play on those players with sound, no problem.
Now, my Library/Components folder is empty. My Library/QuickTime folder has the following:
3ivxVideoCodec.component
AC3MovieImport.component

Rename recorded avi file with new file name

Dear all,
I'm working on capturing video from a web-cam and storing files which use the time stamps as the file names. As my application must start storing the data as quick as possible, so I need to start the realized processor, create/open the datasink in advance, otherwise there will be a 10 sec time lag. In creating the datasink, I set the medialocator pointed to a temp file:TEMP.avi
I store the files in the same TEMP.avi for each recording and I want to rename the TEMP.avi using the time stamp as the file name.
I've tried the setOutputLocator() and tried to set the output as 2003_11_02_183023.avi, but it only work once, the next record still use the previous name.
I've tried the renameto(), but it doesn't work.
I've also tried the renameFile(), but it prompt "non static .. can not be referenced to static content".
Are there any way to solve this problem ? It seems to be a simple file renaming problem, but ..
Thanks in Advance !
kan

byte[] aviData = ...; // data from TEMP.AVI
File file = new File(timestamp);
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(file);
out.write(aviData);
out.flush();
out.close();

No sound in avi files (MPEG Layer 3 format)

Ok. here's another take on this problem maybe someone can please help me with. overall objective is to convert avi files to "ipod ready" files using quicktime. at first when any of these files were opened in quicktime, i had no sound and a white screen while the file was "playing". it took me a very long time but finally found the necessary video codec so i now have the video.
however, i am still not getting anywhere with the sound problem. when i go to video properties in quicktime it says the audio track of the files are in MPEG Layer 3 format. so, naturally i began searching for this audio codec. when i found one on freecodecs from Fraunhofer, downloaded, and installed, nothing changed. unfortunately i cannot find any other version of this codec and cannot figure out how to get quicktime to use the codec from Fraunhofer.
Please help!!!!

Hey. Thanks for the info. I have found the program and will give it a shot. In the meantime I have been using a program I found called Digital Media Converter which seems to be working great (a little slow but does the job). However, I was wondering if one of you who is most familiar with the Windows OS could answer a question. I have encountered an error when I tried converting video files in the past and with this new program. It seems to be internal to Windows. After a file is converted to an mp4 and I go to the conversion folder to look at the file...whenever I click on that mp4 file or go to use it the Windows Explorer crashes giving one of those report sender windows that Windows generates after a problem. Now what is really strange is that despite Explorer crashing, I can move that box out of the way, continue to work with the file (place it in iTunes), delete the original (as iTunes stores its own copy), reset the Explorer, and then it's like nothing ever happened.
Is it normal for the Explorer to crash under these circumstances? And, is there anything I can do to fix that?
I'll be trying the MPEG Streamclip program in the meantime. I have located it on the web but not installed just yet. I'll get back to you. Thanks for all the help guys!

Quiktime 7.7 plays no sound with .AVI files

Quiktime used to play sound for my .avi files, but no longer does.

After the install of Perian 1.1 drag the AC3 codec out of the folder it is in as Perian handles AC3. BTW AC3 is Dolby Digital codec for audio and not the problem with an AVI file.

JMF does not play sound for .avi file and no video for .mov file

Hi,
I am trying to use JMStudio to transmit media files from one computer to another.
However, when I try to transmit .mov file it only plays audio no video is displayed on other computer.
And when I transmit .avi file I can see the Video on other machine but it does not
play any sound.
I tried using capture devices like - webcam and mic and they work perfectly fine.
Can anyone please tell me the solution for this.
Thank you in advance.

I discovered the same problem too..
I think it is a general Format problem.
When i analyzed the tracks in my .avi and .mov files before rtp streaming with jmf, I found each media containing just 1 track..
This track was a video track, no audio at all.
Other formats I tried, like .mpg, revealed both audio and video tracks, and performed perfectly.
I'm still on more research.. will get the solution to you if u don't find one before I'm done..
