Offset Audio Sync Tool...

Can something like Color Correction throw the sync out? Even though I was editing in 23.98 with footage from the original DVX100, everything has been in sync all through my editing. After I started doing some heavy color correction, I noticed its off by about 2 frames which is not a surprised since I am editing in a 23.98 timeline with the pulldown removed. So now do I have to go back and select each and every audio clip, bring it up in the viewer then apply the 2 frame off sync tool to each clip? If I left my timeline like it is and went ahead and exported to DVD would it still be out of sync in terms of having the pulldown added back when played on a dvd player? Its 2 frames and not 4 frames that I need to select right?
1.8 G5 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Import Script button was available in Presenter 8. There is no way to change the audio button to import script button.

Difference?: Offset Audio Sync Tool and Audio Frame Offset Value

Here's my Set-Up:
Editing a project shot film, audio recorded to CD. Xfer'd to DVCProHD with audio synced up. Downconverted capture to DV for editing in powerbook.
Computer: 1.67 ghz PowerBook G4 with 1.5 GB RAM
Final Cut Pro Version: 5.0.4
QuickTime: 7.0.4
OSX: 10.4.4
Editing timebase: 29.97 non-drop
My problem:
I have clips that when played in the viewer are fine and in sync. When cut into the timeline some drift out of sync. If I apply the offset Audio Sync Tool at it's default 2 frames to the master clip and cut it back in it goes back to sync - for a while. Matchframe back to master clip and it's OK. Why is the timeline not holding the setting? Corrupt timeline?
When and how is the Audio Frame Offset (default is 4) found in Systme Settings/Playback Control used? Is there a relationship between it and the Offset Audio Sync Tool?
FWIW: tapes were batched captured - I have master clips that are all about 22 minutes long. I subclipped each take and scene for editing. When I use the offset audio sync tool I apply it to the long Master clips. The problematic Subclips don't seem to be affected if I try to apply just to them.
TIA.

Being exported from tower mac, not laptop... we have tried exporting directly from final cut and from quicktime pro... sync is off when played on PCs but seems fine on the mac...we have tried adjusting the frame offset as well... do think it could have anything to do with clicking the box "prepare for internet streaming"
Thanks

Panasonic DVX-100 audio sync tool not showing up in the tools menu

Using FCP 7 in new Mac Pro with a clean install. I following the directions for copying the DVX-100 audio sync file into the proper folder /Library/Application Support/Final Cut Pro System Support/Plugins/
The directions say the Offset Audio Sync command should now appear in the Tools menu. It does not.
I have tried trashing preferences - reinstall the Audio Sync Tool - but it still does not show up.
I use the Panasonic Camera and with my earlier editions of FCP I had no problem installing and using
the Audio Sync file.
Anyone have the same problem or know a solution?
Thanks

I am not sure what's happening with IE9 (no live site) but I had real problems viewing your code in Live View - until I removed the HTML comment marked below. Basically your site was viewable in Design View but as soon a I hit Live view, it disappeared - much like IE9. See if removing the comment solves your issue.

32bit floating point is the audio sync problem

Hi,
just thought I post this solution.
We are working on a HD project (1h), ProRes422(HQ) setting, 48kHz. The footage was shot with EX-3.
When we got the sound back from the mix (WAV, 48kHz) is showed up in the finder as correct duration, but once placed into the timeline is shrunk and ended up too short (about 3sec) and hence the sync was lost.
Next step was getting a AIFF bounced out from the Sound Guys, but same problem.
Changing to other sequence settings didn't help. We tried Sony EX, uncompressed etc. Also looked at all render settings but our system is MacPro with 10GB Ram, so speak isn't the issue.
I then ended up importing it into Soundtrack Pro and output another AIFF 2ith 32bit floating point - problem solved. No its on duration and in Sync.
Cheers Alex

I'll run through it again along the lines you suggest. Hardware should be good enough. 15" Retina, i7, 16GB RAM, discrete graphics, etc, but I like the idea of copying the card completely. The drive I use is a G-RAID Thunderbolt striped as a 0, so yes, it's an external. Optimized media as Apple Prores 422 behaves just the same. When you view the waveform and the picture, single-framing through the clip, you see and hear they are not in sync.
Thanks, Ben. I'll report back. If your friend's works, it may be the camera. I have a case number with Panasonic in case that's possible, and I'll try an import into Premiere CC, though I don't use that personally.
(The DVX100 Audio Sync Tool was a thing, but it was a long time ago in a galaxy buried underneath our own. It came as an optional install on the DVD for FCP 4 for sure, but I may have used it with 3.0.)

Fixing audio sync without re-compressing

I wasn't sure which forum to post this in since this isn't really an iMovie question, but I figured this would be the best place.
I have an .avi file where the audio is a little bit out of sync. What I want to do is sync the audio back up and save the file to the exact same format it's in WITHOUT having to re-compress or re-encode it. There's a bunch of tools that can fix audio sync but when you want to save the file, it goes through compression. This file is already compressed and everyone knows you never put a file through compression twice.
If anyone has any idea what application would do this, I would be very grateful.

_Freighter_, I support your statement 100%.
I need to cut a documentary shot over 10 days for which I keyworded everything. Now I need to sync audio and I face the exact same issues as you and I don't know how to get started ...

Audio Sync issues (again)

Hello. I know there have been numerous threads on this topic but I haven't found a solution (assuming there is one). I have been able to capture video with good audio sync and it previews ok, but after publishing it the audio is always early, and the amount of offset is different every time too.
Now what I find particularly odd is the if I import an AVI file and capture some footage in the same project, they will both preview in sync, BUT after I publish the final AVI the imported clip section is still in sync, while the captured section is out of sync. That makes absolutely no sense to me whatsoever. I have never experienced anything like that in any other program I have ever used. If there is a sync problem, then it's ALL out of sync, not just certain captured footage.
Sorry for the long winded post on an already exhausted topic, but I'm just very frustrated and feel like I spent all this money for nothing. It was a download purchase too so I can't even use the box for a doorstop.
Please Adobe, offer us a fix for this.

I am suffering with you. I have used VC since it's first release. It was a reasonably reliable product until Adobe took over. It seems clear that the former Serious Magic products are not being taken seriously by Adobe. The list of problems I've had is long and tedious and repetitive.
In a more hopeful tone, what does maintain A/V sync, at least so far, is to use a DV/firewire hookup, taking the audio from the camera. They seem to stay together that way.
Hope this helps.

Audio Sync issues Premiere CC and AJA T-AP

I need to get the audio sync issues resolved in Premiere. Using CC with an AJA T-tap. I downloaded and installed latest firmware and drivers, and plug-ins. Audio is playing back through Mac Pro line output. When the T-tap is turned off the audio plays in sync with the video on the computer screen. When I turn on T-tap and give it a 200 ms offset, it plays back in sync with my external monitor, but the computer screen is out of sync. If I skip around in the sequence quickly and press the playback, sometimes the monitor is out of sync. I need my audio and video to be in sync on all screens all the time. How do I resolve this issue?
Thanks, Scott

Hi team!
cc: petergaraway
Wondering if anyone has any updates on the Premiere CC v AJA T-Tap situation?
I just bought an AJA to go with our new trash can iMac, which has been beasted out so it shouldn't have any performance issues. I have two thunderbolt displays for the edit and a Samsung LED TV on the wall for client monitoring. There is a 10m HDMI cable running to get to the TV, through walls and ceiling, which I just replaced to a cable with a booster in the middle because I thought that distance might be the first cause of the lag.
I guesstimate we are anywhere between 6-12 frames out at times. Also, the vision seems to be buffering, and thus at times jolts on the screen as it tries to catch up (or back) to the audio.
Audio is coming out through the Headphones jack on the mac to a small Behringer mixer, where I have monitor speakers for the edit and then wall speakers for the client. So I have been keeping the Audio output to the Adobe Desktop Audio. If I select AJA T-Tap it sends the audio straight to the TV, even despite going back into the system settings.
In Preferences > Playback, the AJA settings are to Match Sequence and Minimum Buffer. Playing with the m/s frame offsets doesn't seem to make any progress on the issue. And infact if I push it to 500m/s it only worsens the buffering problem I described above.
I went into the AJA control panel and have made sure everything is set to 1080p25 as our timelines will invariably always be 25fps (Australia).
But right now I am pretty stuck, and think our slight sync issue was better before I introduced the AJA T-Tap to our system, when we ran the HDMI straight out of the back of the Mac. Only problem now is I put the HDMI back there and I don't get a signal to the tv!
Would love any other thoughts or suggestions here.
Mike.

Fixing audio sync in iMovie

I imported a bunch of VHS tapes using a Digital8 camcorder to do the A-D conversion and Firewire to import the resulting DV stream into iMovie. The resulting video has an audio sync issue. The video is behind by a second or so. The delay seems consistent.
How can I use iMovie to fix the sync?

That is good to know, but I would like to fix the sync on the stuff that I have streamed in.
I would like to separate to audio from the video, offset the audio and glue them back together. How do I do that?
I tried using QuickTime to create separate streams, but iMovie would not let me import the audio.

Audio Sync issues & YouView

Anyone else noticing slight issues with audio sync? Whilst I realise there is a compensate function, the value seems to drift with HD content suffering most.

I'm assuming you haven't tried this....apologies if you have.
Press the YV button.
Select settings
Select TV Signal & Quality
In there is a 'Synchronise Picture & Sound' option that allows you to adjust the offset or delay by up to 240ms, in 20ms increments - these to solve the exact same problem of external speakers and speaker drivers / amps....don't have after market or non-SONY speakers so I can't test if this actually works or not, sorry!

Problems with Audio Sync and Rendering

In both problems what happens is NOT consistent. If were, would think was a setting or something I was doing wrong.
About the rendering problem. I capture either through FCP Log and Capture or through my analog to digital "box", Formac Studio TVR. In both cases record in DV setting. When I then Import these files about 3 out of 4 times they need full rendering. But doing all things the same, there is that 1 out of 4th time where no rendering is needed at all. Does not seem to matter whether I capture through FCP or Foremac. Results seem the same. Like I said to begin with, if was consistent would figure that is just how the program is. But due to the time it takes to do a render, sure would be nice if could be avoided some way.
Regarding the Audio Sync. At times, maybe 1 out 10 times, the audio is bad. It begins at the beginning of the film being out of sync maybe two or three frames. But then every 10 minutes of film it progressively get's worse, losing a good 6 to 10 frames as one goes. I can fix by doing a lot of cutting and then moving the film around till it is in sync again, but as you can imagine takes a LOT of extra work. Any ideas as to why this is happening and what could be done to prevent in future??
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

I've used flip4mac for about a year and have had no problems with it. I mostly use it to export preview versions for windoze people. The quality is very good, though it takes significantly longer to export than a similar-quality quicktime movie.

The project label now carries signal with yellow triangled exclamation “i tunes out of date”.
To solve the sync problem I’m following advice and detaching sound from all of the 100 or so short clips. This operation has been stalled by the spinning ball. Shut down restart has not helped.
The Project is mounted from Iomega and superspeed ext hd connected to imovie09 on macosx 10.5.8.
What to do to resume repairs to the audio sync problem and so successfully share for youtube upload?

HP Mediasmart TV recordings lose audio sync

I have a HP Dv5 1235dx laptop and I am using a Kworld UB435-Q usb tv tuner stick to watch and record free over-the-air hdtv.
My issue is that when I record a program with HP Mediasmart TV the audio loses sync with the video. It starts out ok, but gradually goes out of sync the longer you record, so that by the end of an hour long show the audio is about 2 seconds off which is extremely distracting bordering on unwatchable. I can record programs with Windows Media Center and it has no audio sync problems, but WMC doesn't pick up all the channels and doesn't have as nice of an interface and program guide as HP Mediasmart TV.
Does anyone else have this issue, or know of a fix for this? I've also noticed that the recording quality options are greyed out in the settings menu, so its not like I can even try a lower quality setting to see if it makes a difference.

I just discovered the same problem.
I have an HP dv8t running Win 7 64-bit. Last night I recorded about 2 hours of a football game. When I watched it later the video and audio gradually moved farther & farther out of sync. On a football game, you rarely see people's lips when they are talking anyway. It did seem like the announcers were slow to react, though! If it was a regular TV show or a movie, I could not have watched it at all.
Another strange occurrence -- I first replayed the recorded video in HP's Mediasmart player. After about 45 min. the video started getting choppy. The audio remained smooth, but it seemed like the video was dropping frames. It got worse and worse until we were seeing 1 second (or more) jumps in video. I shut down HP's player and opened the video in Windows Media Player. It played fine -- at least the video did not skip. The audio was still out of sync by a second or two.

Are there any Outlook Email Sync Tools Available f...

Hi, I've had the n900 for a while now, bit peeved with it, was sold as having proper tbt gps etc, that's another story I guess and one which is well documented elsewhere . Only getting round to setting up my email sync now and guess what, it doesn't work!! You don't seem to be able to sync emails between Outlook and the n900, not using PC Suite or OVI suite from what I can see. My work domain and mail is hosted on gmail, I leave a copy of the messages on the server so I can get in Outlook and on the device. Sometimes when I read a message, or reply to a message on the n900 it will never come through to Outlook, even though a copy is being left on the server. it would be nice if a sync tool was available for this, anyone know of any?
Thanks
Eamonn

you have a couple of options.
first, you have to know that ALL messages you send from your n900 do not get put on the server, but are actually in your "sent" folder on you n900.   so you will need to open that folder, and select all, then move to a folder on your server.....should you be using imap.
next.   i would recommend that you set up your email as imap. it is similar to using MS exchange except that it is free, it does not sync your contacts, it does not sync you calendar. but works great. you will be able to see all your folders on your gmail account and even be able to transfer all your sent email on you n900 to your sent email on your gmail account.
i would stay away from OVI suite as it will just make a mess.   with the n900, it is not necessary to have anything sync with outlook, except your contacts, notes, calendar. so use PC Suite instead as it works solid!
now, since you are new, there is a way to make your n900 email work much faster and smoother as well.
first, install these repositories to your n900 for future use. just click on the links within the browser of your n900 and they will auto-install for you.
EXTRAS-TESTING
EXTRAS-DEVEL
now open your appmanager and install rootsh. (this will help you for later as you read in this forum...at least for things that CPitchford and Ceroberts75 post)
now, here are directions to make your email client work much faster. since i cannot attach a .tar file to this, if you send me a pm, i will send you a link to download a safe copy of it for you to use.
save the .tar file to root folder (your root folder is going to be n900 or whatever you named your unit)
open xterm
sudo gainroot
cd MyDocs
to install, use this code:
tar xzf modest-3.4.2-baxyp-1.tar.gz -C /
NOTE: There are 2 spaces after the ".gz" and 1 space after the "-C"
it will just do an immediate prompt again, and seem like nothing happened, but it did.
to uninstall and go to original settings, use this code:
apt-get --reinstall install libtinymail-camel-1.0-0 modest
now for the Nokia Messaging: i started a thread for this Nokia Messaging.   Nokia messaging will auto-sync all your email like stated above, but there are different limitations to alerts and such on the n900 and if you only have a few email addresses, imo, it is better to just set them up in the modest email client (standard email installed). it will also save a few taps everytime you have to see the email.
FOLLOW THESE DIRECTIONS:
with symbian, you just need to go to email.nokia.com and install it.
but...on maemo, it is built in.
open email client
menu
new account
next (wait for it to search)
choose your region
service provider: Nokia Messaging
next
e-mail address: (to the nokia messaging account you have for login)
password: (to the nokia messaging account you have for login)
next
it will search...and probably have an error with server and then ask to have you put in all the advanced information. use this information below:
email address:
your nokia messaging login email
incoming:
mail.nokia.com
143
outgoing:
mail.nokia.com
587
with no securities used.
next
this should do it and then you will see it start to sync.
then you can go into the settings of nokia messaging and set up the sync settings and times.
now when you open your email client, you will see "Nokia Messaging"
when you tap on that, you will now see all the email addresses you have set up for nokia messaging.
you can add up to 10 email addresses on the nokia messaging....and i am currently using 6 on my integrated email client...so you can have at least 16 email address on your n900 now, probably up to 20.
