One clip loses audio

I have been bringing in clips fine, but one drops the audio in the sequence. Any suggestions?
Thanks

as enzo suggests ... the facts of life are that every now and again, for no appreciable reason, a clip may capture with no audio or no video ... ghost in the machine... if you capture enough clips you'll get used to it.
i used to look after a station that captured vast numbers of clips daily ... every once in a while a single clip would be missing audio or video whilst hundreds of clips on either side, on the same or different reels, would capture with no problem ... at the end of the day its just a computer based system and errors do happen
its one clip out of many, just recapture, its not worth your time or trouble stressing out over it

  • Edited MPG (mpeg2) Clips lose Audio - Premiere Elements 8

    I have 2 mpg files recorded off a TV.  When I bring them into Elements 8.0 I can play them back and the audio is fine.  However, after I edit them for length the audio disappears.  It looks like somehow when the video is edited for length that the audio track is deleted.  I am editing in Scene mode.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Steve,
    Thanks for the quick reply to my question.  I have a HAVA (like a slingbox) that records directly to hard disk from the cable box.  It creates DVD quality MPGs.  I have previously been using Pinnacle Studio to make my DVDs, but wanted to try Premiere Elements.  When I bring the clips into to Premiere, I can play them just fine.  I normally clip off the first 1-2 minutes of  commercial items and the last several minutes before actually burning the DVD.  This is where the problem comes.  Once I trim the video clip, it no longer has any audio - even though the video is fine.  Just as a test, I fired up my old Pinnacle Studio and brought these 2 mpgs into it.  I was able to easily trim the video clips and burn a DVD - with audio.
    Since I am new to Premiere, I assume it is just something I am doing wrong in the trimming process.  I went through the tutorial online and think I followed it OK.

  • Merge audio to video clips, end of clip loses audio

    This is driving me nuts. After merging audio and video clips, sync to slate using the in points, everything is in sync.
    The audio is longer than the video itself. But WAY before the scene ends, the audio mutes. The waveforms are visable but no audio plays. It drop out. It happens to every merged clip I create. I don't use the out points either.
    Anyone else have this issue??
    If I take an alternate method to sync them in the timeline and create a clip from there, it makes a new sequence clip losing the scene and take metadata. That's not good. Is there a workaround?

    It happens on every project and different formats. I do use FCP Rescue and that doesn't solve it. I did figure out a work around which involves a few more steps and is more time consuming. Maybe this can help find the problem. Here is the ridiculous workaround steps. We should send this to Apple.
    The "--" are the extra steps.
    To get a good merged subclip.
    Open the audio file and add the 'in point' to the slate.
    --Drag audio clip to the timeline.
    --Drag the audio clip from the timeline to the browser window.
    Merge with video.
    Viola. Audio won't drop out. But the waveforms are completely off with the sound.
    Next step is to open the merged clips and Make Subclip so you don't have that extra media in the beginning and end. And the waveform seem normal.

  • How can i leave audio from one clip playing, while showing another one in i

    i am editing a movie, using iMovie 08, and want to use sound for a clip in the video for the end credits. how can i do this?
    just to be clear, i am not trying to add audio. i am trying to leave the audio from ONE CLIP playing, while viewing a new frame. thanks.

    This is simple in iMovie 11 (drag and drop), but in iMovie 08, you can still do it.

  • How do I join multiple (short) audio clips into one single long audio clip in Premiere Pro CS5?

    Hello,
    The question is in the title but I'm wondering how I can join multiple (short) audio clips into one single long audio clip in PP CS5.5.  I put all my short clips right next to each other and selected all of them to see what options are available by right clicking and using the toolbar options at the top.  The closest that I got was to nest the sequence, but that's not what I really want.
    I'd like to merge all the short clips into one single (long) audio file to use under the video.
    Thoughts are welcome and  greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    -Melvin

    O.K. This is kind of fundamental and you will need to learn up on this fully ...but for now...
    Make sure you have the WAB ( work area bar )covering the length of the audio clips. ( You do not need to select them)
    Go to the File Menu> Export Media
    You will be given all the Export Options.  Choose Wave File
    Select option for Export Work Area.
    Choose where to export the file to ( HD location)
    follow your nose from there....

    BTW - Why are you taking the audio to Audition anyway? What are you going to do to it.

  • Audio dropout one clip only

    I created a movie in iMovie 6.0.3 (project size approx. 3GB) and shared it with iDVD to burn a DVD. Very little extra added in iDVD for Theme, etc. so it should have been well within size limits of standard DVD-R. (I have successfully burned DVDs in iDVD for similar projects with the same brand of DVD-R media previously with no problems). The movie played with no audio loss in iMovie and on the iDVD preview.
    I do have music running under the clips, and the only difference on the clip with audio loss on the DVD is that I had to extract the audio from the clip in iMovie to make an edit work.
    On that clip of the movie when viewed in iMovie's timeline view I have my video visible on the top line with my extracted audio (from the video clip)on the middle line and my music on the bottom line.
    When I burned the DVD and tried to play it back on my TV the audio was fine until the last clip of the movie -- where there was no sound at all. I tried importing from the Media pane in iDVD rather than sharing from iMovie with the same bad result after burning the DVD.
    I have checked the forum, and while there are many similar issues no one seemed to have this exact problem. I did print out the linked article re: Updating iDVD to 6.0.1( I currently have version 6.0.3) and deleting encoded assets (I had plenty of space available on my hard drive) -- it didn't seem to apply to my problem, if I'm understanding those two issues.
    I will try the Disk Utility fix, but I'm trying to make a deadline and have never created a DVD that way before.
    Any ideas how to burn the DVD -- preferably with the iDVD theme and button menu if possible, but most importantly with the least loss of video and sound quality.

    Thank you for the helpful response. I was able to deliver the DVD on time with a workaround.
    Once that was done, I tried playing the DVDs I created originally on my friend's DVD player and they played perfectly!!!
    Any suggestions out there -- other than I need a new DVD player
    is there any way to confirm a DVD burned in iDVD will play on the majority of DVD players before I send it out as a finished project?

  • Can one copy Audio from one clip minus its video...to paste to another?

    I'm working on a painting video...as an artist/teacher...and easily created a 3 minute trailer on YouTube using iMovie...
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LXWxjjGkAg
    I have Final Cut Express 3.5.1 on my intel...and thought I'd best use this higher standard software for the making of my 90 minute DVD...but dang, its coming hard for me. Trying to make sense of the help manual. With iMovie it was nothing to copy an audio track, copy and paste elsewhere...but with FCE I can't seem to separate the audio of the track from one clip to copy and paste elsewhere without that video clip wanting to come along.
    The original clip is me painting by a waterfalls..the original narrative voicing was weak, so I did a voice over with a mic and toneport tonight, now I want to paste in the sound of the falls behind copied from a clip where I did no speaking.
    I have Soundtrack as well. Am I better off just putting my video clips together in FCE...then importing the whole thing to Soundtrack to edio audio? Seems audio with FCE is tough...well, for me anyway. Thanks

    Hi -
    In FCE, select the clip on the timeline that has the audio and video stuck together. Go to the menu Edit and toggle Linked Selection (the check mark will go away).
    Now you should be able to copy and paste one without the other.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I get audio back on single clip that loses audio when imported into Premiere Pro CC?

    I've got one clip out of many that for some reason won't play any audio when imported into Premiere Pro.  I am new to Premiere Pro so am hoping it's something stupid I've done, but this is a problem with just a single clip exported the same way as all my others, the original audio is loud (not quiet) and none of the FAQ issues seem to apply (ie I haven't muted the audio or anything stupid like that)
    The clip was exported from Plural Eyes into a "master" Premiere Pro project where the audio is fine. I exported it as a short MP4 clip and if I play the clip in Windows Media Player the audio is there loud and clear.
    But when I import the clip into a fresh Preimiere Pro CC project this clip appears with just the "film strip" icon on the far left in the Timeline panel, unlike other clips which have an icon that shows "film strip" in the background and "audio wave" in the foreground.
    I'm hitting so many glitches with the CC editions of Premiere Pro and After Effects which have annoying inconsistencies between them I'm tempted to just go back to Sony Vegas Pro (single program, no hassle) but hoping most of these issues are down to "newbie incompetence". Very hard to understand why this one clip out of many should be giving me this specific problem though. Any ideas?

    I'm getting so many weird results. Most go away by simply closing the project and re-opening and I only have 6GB memory but even so, I'm disappointed by what I thought was supposed to be more "world class" video editing software than Sony Vegas Pro which I found to be a lot more stable. Also struggling with differences between Premiere and After Effects. Every time I want to do something in Pro I seem to need to go to After Effects and vice-versa. After Effects lets me do more of what I could "just do" in Vegas Pro timeline, but it's hideous for lining up audio and having to render anything in RAM to even get a clue as to what a change has done.  Need to add Audition to the long list as well I suspect. Fun times!

  • Suggestions for blending audio from one clip to next?

    I'm learning editing and PP and am practicing by editing different clips from a movie to make my own trailer. The problem I'm having is that going from one clip to another has obvious and abrupt changes. I could add audio transitions to each clip, though for a 2.5 minute trailer I'm not sure if fading audio up and down constantly is the best choice? What is the best way to blend the audio from one clip to the next?
    Thanks.

    You can create a crossfade (essentially an
    audio dissolve) from one audio clip to another.
    With the audio track(s) targeted, park the Playhead at the
    audio cut and hit Ctrl+Shift+D (or drag from the effect panel):
    You need to be sure you have sufficient 'handles'
    on both clips to accommodate the crossfade.

  • When I import .mov file to Idvd I lose audio in certain clips

    The .mov file I can paly everything fine thru quicktime but on import to Idvd I lose audio on some of the clips. Why? all the boxes are checked on the I movie.

    Where did your .mov file orginate from? If it came from a camcorder or a digital still camera that takes MPEG movies, then you need two pieces of software to separate the audio from the .mov file. First, download the Free MPEG Streamclip (do a Google search), and once you download that, there will be a link to download the $20 Apple MPEG Streamclip plug-in for Quicktime. MPEG Streamclip is brilliant in that it will convert your MPEG .mov file back to a DV file for proper input into iMovie for editing while the QT plug-in will separate the audio. In it's original form, the audio to your MPEG movie is imbedded into the video. QT will play it fine, but iMovie needs to have it separated.

  • Audio from one clip plays in preview, not on burned DVD

    Have just completed burning a DVD of a 23-minute movie. Everything works fine except that the audio associated with one clip in the movie is almost non-existent. If I turn up the volume when playing the burned DVD through my DVD player/television, the sound can be heard, but barely. The audio from that portion of the movie plays normally while previewing and editing in Premiere Pro, it plays fine as a WAV file in Encore, and it plays fine in Windows Media Player. However, various attempt to burn that segment onto DVD, either alone or as part of the assembled movie, produce almost no sound. Again, the audio for the entire movie is perfect when played in Premiere Pro or Encore; the audio is also perfect on the burned DVD except for the one troublesome clip, in which the audio is so faint that it can't really be heard.

    Dan,
    Can't thank you enough for taking the time to hazard a guess about my problem.
    I'm a real newbie with regard to video editing, so not conversant with much of the language, but all of the movie's clips were recorded in 16-bit stereo and the resulting DVD was played back through my television, which is a widescreen playing through its own speakers. I think the pertinent information, however, is that everything in the movie plays perfectly with the exception of this one clip, which was produced in exactly the same way as the rest of the movie. The one difference is that we used a different microphone for this clip. But again, this clip, like the rest of movie, plays fine when being previewed in the computer. Go figure.

  • I am trying to use two very long (2.5 hour HD) clips in multicam but FCPX only places one clip right after the other and does not create multicam. Is there a limit on clip size for multicam?

    I am trying to use two very long (2.5 hour HD clips) and a 2.5 hour audio clip in multicam. One clip and the audio will ceate a multiclip but two clips will not. FCPX simply adds the second clip on at the end of the first. There must be some sort oflimitation on clip length. Is that correct and if so what is it?

    The Angle field is not shown in the Inspector's default Basic View. With the clip selected in the event viewer, select the Info tab in the inspector. Change the view of the inspector from the default Basic View to the General View to be able to see the Angle field.
    I assume you want to use the audio to do the sync. If FCP X has trouble syncing the audio, you can set a marker at the same chronological point in each clip before creating the multiclip. Then set Angle Syncronization to First Marker on the Angle and keep Use audio for syncronization checked. Your marker only needs to be close to get FCP X started. It will then use the audio to get final sync.

  • How to open only one clip at a time in the source monitor?

    Ok the answer to this question may be simple.. hopefully...
    At the moment each time I open a clip in the source monitor it adds it to the dropdown list.
    Fine... but I am opening and closing hundreds of clips in a day and after a while I noticed it seemed to be slowing down the whole PPCS5.5 system.
    It appears that PP seems to be keeping each clip I open... active.
    Is there a way to allow only one clip to be open at a time in the source monitor... other than having to close them all first??? (would be ideal if there was some kind of shortcut like shift-doubleclick)

    SonyZ7's can record to compact flash cards as well as tape, so I generally log and transfer from the cards.
    So I guess I should do a bit more research on workflow's in Pr
    No probs, here's a bunch of MediaInfo...

  • In the middle of a clip, the audio starts playing from another part.... Help?

    So, I'm a bit of a technological noob, so I will describe this the best I can.  I have a clip (mp4) that runs about 1 hour 30 min long.  About 30 minutes into the clip, the audio from the beginning of the clip randomly starts playing, yet the video continues as it should, just the audio randomly swapped itself somehow?
    I have not cut or edited the clip in any way, I simply imported it in, and put it on the timeline and no matter what I tried (restarting, clearing cache, reimporting, etc) nothing seems to fix the problem.  The weirder part is, if I watch the raw file using something like Windows Media Player, the clip is just fine, no problems at all.  So something must be going wrong when it's imported into Adobe Premiere.
    Has anyone had this issue or know what may be causing this? I'm at a loss and it's keeping me from continuing a series I'm working on that I need to release. 
    As I said before, I'm a bit noobish, and this is my first time posting, so please feel free to respond with any additional info you need me to supply, and try to explain things in a noob friendly way, as I may not understand super technical jargon.
    Edit: A little bit of info to help possibly... I'm using Windows 7 and Adobe Premiere Pro CS6

    Hmmm okay.  I've been using PP for 2 years now with the same type of "non-camera media" and never had a problem til now.  But since then I've edited hours and hours of similar footage with no problem, so I may  just suck it up and use something like Windows Movie Maker to edit the one clip that is messing up.  Thanks for the help, and if anyone else has other suggestions, please feel free to post them

    I recently upgraded from an iPhone 4s to an iPhone 5.  I have a Motorola HX550 Bluetooth Headset which worked flawlessly with the iPhone 4s.  However, since upgrading to the iPhone 5, I frequently lose audio when in the middle of a call.  I am not certain whether it is a full disconnect or just an audio loss.  The person on the other end reports still being able to hear me, however, I suppose they could hear me speaking over another source even if bluetooth disconnected. The loss of audio is always preceded by a quick shrill noise, so I can easily tell when it happens.  All I have to do to fix the problem is to select Audio Source on the call screen, temporarily switch audio back to the iPhone, and then switch back to the headset, and then it starts working again.
    Is is important to note that I am not the only one experiencing this issue:
    This is a link to someone using the Motorola H19txt headset experiencing the same issue

    If you go to the Plantronics website and look at the "Ratings and Reviews" on the Voyager Legend you will see the same issue reported:
    http://www.plantronics.com/us/product/voyager-legend (next paragraph is taken from the review since there is no direct link to the review.
    Really nice Headset unless you own an Iphone 5. I own several Plantronics headsets and have always loved the quality/ performance. This headset seems not to be compatible with the new Iphone 5. In the middle of a conversation it will lose all incoming audio. This leaves you trying to switch audio sources really fast in order not to lose your phone call. Ive tried 3 legend headsets and they all do the same thing. Hopefully this gets fixed soon because the headset is really nice
    Since this issue appears to affect multiple headsets from multiple vendors, I think it is fair to conclude that it is an issue with the iPhone5 bluetooth itself.
    I am posting this as a new discussion as I don't see any other posts specific to this iPhone 5 Bluetooth issue.  I would have reported this as a problem to Apple, but don't seem to be able to find a way to do this on the web.  Hopefully they are already aware, but if not, maybe they will see i here.

    here is an interesting thing: take the iphone and set lock screen to never. Now make an email with siri--be sure to activate her with call button. get to the body and get some text in there. then just stop talking. LOCK SCREEN APPEARS!!!!!! and of course you draft is gone.
    There does seem to be a work around for some--maybe all these issues. Don't use the call button--use the buttons on the phone.
    Siri seems to behave properly with scenerio above---sans call button. She does not go to lock.
