Out of synch sound

Hi
if anyone could help.
just downloaded a film from i tunes on my new samsung windows 8 laptop and the sound is out of synch with the film. it started off okay but the sound gradualy falls away. it works ok on my i phone.
could this be windows 8 prob or maybe because i downloaded hd version but my laptop has hdmi output??
can i delete the file and try and download again without be charged??

Thank you for a quick response. I think you may be right about all the file writing and deleting etc. I've captured about 10 one to one half hour 8mm tapes so far and burned to dvds so that may have affected everything!
I've done the repair permissions option in disk utility. Where can I find a download for MacJanitor?
thanks again
Angie

Sound and video out of synch in DVD final

My iMovie plays fine and also does in iDVD previews. However, when it burns the audio is either out of synch or (in another test) not there at all. I have no error messages; am close to capacity but not over; have latest Quicktime 7.013.
Am using a dual 1.8 Ghz G5. What are some things I might try in order to fix this? Thanks!

does 12bit always slide?
Most of the time 12 bit audio will eventually go out of sync with the video within 15 to 20 minutes of playback on a finished DVD. And yes it is noticeable.
I don't have the patience to bring it all back in and out to make it 16 bit if that's the only hope.
That is the only hope. It requires extensive work to bring it back into sync. And I'm sure if you search this forum you will find the correct procedure for this work around should you eventually decide to rework the audio.
Hope this serves to answer your questions.

Audio and video out of synch on export

Hi,
I've searched the forum for this. I have a movie in FCE 4 in which the audio and video are in synch in the time line. The audio was recorded into Logic at 96, noodled, passed into FCE at 48 and then had to be lined up with the video. Then when I go to export, the resulting QT movie is out of synch, the audio now about one second before the video. I'm using QT conversion. My compresson is H.264, quality best, frame rate 30, multi-pass, 640 x 480, format AAC or linear PCM, various sample rates, stereo and mono etc. I've tried various other settings for export, but the problem remains.
What am I doing wrong? Many thanks for any help,
Ray

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I think you're on the right track. I want the best sound possible, so I record into Logic, knowing I'm going into FCE I record at 96 so an even multiple down to 48. I think a .wav file though, and maybe that's the problem. Into FCE, but other audio there as well from the camera mic, and which I occasionally include in the sound track for ambience. All of this noodled a fair amount and then exported, the intent being to end up in 44, as it will be uploaded to youtube. I switch to 16 bit out of Logic, but the aiff vs wav may be the problem. Do think there might be a better way to do this?

Vado audio out of synch with video when I transfer it out of Vado Central

Vado audio out of synch with video when I transfer it out of Vado Centralk I have a very important video I took that runs fine in Vado Central. However, when I try transferring it anywhere else (Facebook, Photobucket, iMovie) the audio speeds up and makes my son sound like a chipmunk.
My computer is a MacBook OS 0.5.8, 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 processor, 2GB memory, which should meet the system requirements.
I've been going back and forth with customer-no-service and their last suggestion was that there's nothing wrong with the camera or Vado Central and that Facebook, Photobucket and iMovie must all be independently having the exact same problem
I'm very frustrated and unhappy. This camera is only 2 months old, but it's too late for me to return it and right now it's worthless to me. Worst of all, my very important video is ruined. Anybody have any suggestions

Yes, it sounds the same (too fast) no matter what computer we try it from. I've tried burning a DVD every way I can think of and when we try to play it on our DVD player we still have chipmunk audio.
I am BEYOND frustrated with Vado's customer-no-service. They keep insisting that since it will play in Vado Central I don't have a problem. I bought this camera so that I could share video with my family that's across the country. What am I supposed to do now, mail them the camera?! It's absurd!

ISight & Audio out of Synch?

I regularly record videos for YouTube and I recently got a brand new Macbook Pro 15" to replace my 2nd Generation one. I never had a problem on that. However now, I've filmed two videos on this laptop using the iSight and internal mic, and both times, the audio has been out of synch with the video. It's almost like the audio has been stretched and is longer than the video. Because I tried moving the audio around in FCP, and it would always fall out of synch a few seconds later. Has anyone ever heard of this?
PS - This time I filmed into iMovie. The first time I filmed into the YouTube 'record' function on the website.
Please help!

Welcome to Discussions, techsexgloss
(1) Well known issue when using FCP/E to edit QT capture/import files. As I understand it, the problem is related to differences between the recorded QuickTime file formats and your FCP workflow settings. This is not really a problem with your built-in iSight, which has no sound recording of its own.
Although I do not use FCP, conforming your QT import files to your FCP workflow / settings seem to be the answer. See this thread for one example:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4677375&#4677375
A look through the returns from this search should give you more ideas:

(2) If you need more help, I suggest you post in FCP discussions:
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=939
Be sure to include the frame, bit, and sampling rate parameters for the QuickTime file you are importing into FCP when you ask your question. It might also be helpful if you state the parameters you plan to output from FCP in your finished project.

Exports slightly out of synch?

Seems like when I export my edits (shot in HD) the audio is out of synch with the video by just a couple of frames. Not usually a big deal, but ruins the precision of my faster paced edits. Tip?

Are you sure it's out of synch ...... two frames would be hard to detect ?
Could there be any latency in the playback equipment delaying the sound?
Assuming it really is not synchronised we would have to know exactly how and to where you were exporting it in order to form an opinion.

Reason/ReWire--logic vocals out of synch (newbie)

Hi I just set up logic. I have a song I did in reason, it plays fine with logic. However when I record a vocal in logic and play it back, it is out of synch. The vocals start a little before they are supposed to. Any suggestions on what is causing this? Thanks.

Well I record the main song in Reason. I want to have my main song playing in reason, and record vocals. Then when the vocal is done, I want to listen to the vocal and edit whatever I did in Reason, like add/subtract notes if they don't sound good with my singing.
So at this point I'm in the "live rewire" mode, and I've tried it with that low latency button on and off in the transport bar. Same result.
Of course now playing around with Logic, it sounds so good I may just move there completely.

Exported quicktime out of synch

My project looks and sounds fine in the canvas in FCP 5. I export it using "Quicktime Conversion" to MP4 and the resulting movie goes suddenly several seconds out of synch at a point about 3/4 of the way through the movie. It was fine up to that point.
The footage is HDV, and I'm exporting it at smaller dimensions, compressed as MP4 for the web.
Any ideas on where to go from here? Thanks for any suggestions.

You might try exporting it selfcontained with sequence settings first (and reimporting or playing in qtplayer to see if it's in synch). If it's in synch, use that to do your export.

Audio out of Synch in Prem Pro CS4 after editing in Soundbooth

This is using the Mac version of Premiere Pro CS4 and Soundbooth. I Premeire, I choose to edit the audio portion of a clip in Soundbooth. In sound booth I just add some compression or other sweetening and save it (only adding effects no cutting of the audio or anything). When I save it and go back to Premeire, the audio is out of synch. Also this seems to happen intermittently not everytime.
Any ideas?
The audio in premiere is part of a video clip and is 48K 16bit.

Good morning Lynn,
I doubt this will help, but whenever I have issues importing tapes, I try
something else. I double check the software's manual because
sometimes, even if I have done the same thing several times, I add
or miss something. If that does not work I close the program and restart
the computer and camcorder and try again ... with a different tape. If
that doesn't work I use a different program. I use an old HP workstation
I paid $99 for on Ebay that's running XP and I capture with Scenalyzer.
Then I copy file to a USB drive and input to Premiere. Sorry, I figure the
problem is me, not the hardware or software and it usually is me because
when the next project comes along PP usally imports fine.

Imovie soundtrack goes out of synch

I have had this problem a few times, and I would love any help I can get. I have edited movies that I have stored on tape. When I bounce them back into imovie to incorporate them into other projects or to make a dvd comp the sound track starts to ride out of synch with the video. I am not entirely sure what is doing it but I suspect it had something to do with titles added into clips. Maybe a font over the vid and not over black. I am not sure. Any ideas?

I am no expert but have been fighting out of sync problem for months. First, the best advice you've been given is 16 bit. But, if like me, you only have the out of sync Mov on tape this is what I had to do:
Import back into iMov, correct the sync, then share back to tape in 16 bit and make sure at all times cam is in 16 bit mode.
Now correcting sync is a lot easier said than done but this is what worked for me a few days ago. It was obvious that audio narration and lip-sync were lagging the video and by using frame advance from stop I counted an even 3 seconds (90 frames). I then extracted the audio, put it in timeline line under video and could see the first 3 or more seconds were blank. I selected (highlighted) the audio, clipped 3 secs off the front, and dragged the remainder 3 sec to the left. This corrected clips 1 and 2 (9.5 min each) but left the 3 minute clip 3 out of sync in the other direction. So I highlited the audio for clip 3 and dragged it back full right. It was only off about a second+ and the small gap had no audio, but none had existed there anyhow. I then shared back to tape, found sync ok and have since imported back, still in sync. The one move I am unsure of is whether or not I used "lock audio at playhead". Good luck!

Clip audio and video playback out of synch

I've noticed that everything in FCP X is slightly out of synch. Just enough to be noticeable. I thought it might have been the time taken for the sound to travel the length of the church (recording from a camera mic) but I shot some green screen yesterday and even that is out.
The same hardware was used ok with FCE-4 - the Audio i/f is FW-400 and on same bus as FW drives.

Hey Andy, (cue whistling theme music)
Thanks for your informed opinion. Interesting that Apple released FCPX in it's current state rather than wait for the release of Lion. Seems like the core technologies now bundled with the app would make a significant difference running natively.
I'm an audio guy... the next release of Logic Audio is going to be version X, I'm just hoping it's not going to be Garageband Pro.
The reason I was expressing doubts about an OS upgrade making a noticeable difference is.... I heard the same thing about Snow Leopard. As it stands now I have two clients trying to run the latest version of Logic Pro on the current release of SL (10.6.8), the results are not good, the Logic Pro forum has many users unable to get Logic to even boot without crashing.. I'm waiting to hear from support. It seems like the OS is ahead of app development and things are breaking.

FCE is capturing audio out of synch

I just captured some footage from my Sony V1 camera onto Final Cut Express. At the end of the capture session a sign came up saying the following:
"The audio sample rate of one or more of your captured media files does not match the sample rate on your source tape. Make sure the audio sample rate of your capture preset matches the sample rate of your tape."
Sure enough the audio was out of synch. I have no idea where to access these variables on either my camera or on FCE, or what the correct settings would be if I could access them.
Anyone out there know what I have to do to get the capture and source tape matched correctly? And why might it suddenly start doing this, as its never happened before.
Thanks...

Hi(Bonjour)!
See FCE 4 user manual at page 211:
"Common sample rates and bit depths used in the video industry are:
- 32 kHz/12-bit: Consumer mini-DV camcorders can record four channels of audio using these settings. This is not recommended for most productions.
- 44.1 kHz/16-bit: Audio CDs and consumer DAT recorders use these audio settings.
- 48 kHz/16-bit: DV, HDV, and DVD all use these audio settings.
- 48 kHz/20-bit: Some professional video devices record natively in this format.
- 96 kHz/24-bit: These settings are becoming increasingly popular for professional sound and music production, although most video formats still record with 48 kHz."

Audio and video out of synch

Can anyone help. I have just purchased fce4 and already feel way out of my depth. When I captured my footage I get a warning saying that audio and video may be out of synch. Fair enough but there is no advice on how to fix this. Is it something to do with frame rates. My camera is DV Pal. How do I change the settings assuming this is the problem.

Go to Final Cut Express>Easy Setup. You're probably set up for DV-PAL. Change to DV-PAL 32kHz and see if that helps.
I'd encourage you to get a reference book. Tom Wolsky, frequent contributor to this forum, has an excellent one: Final Cut Express Editing Workshop. Diana Weynand has written another one: Apple Pro Training Series: Final Cut Express.

Video out of synch with audio premiere cs4

Hi, im really new to Adobe premiere pro cs4 and i just wanted to import a video. Most of the videos I import are out of synch with the audio. The audio is in time, but the video is sped up about 6 times as fast????

We will need a lot more information about those Videos. This ARTICLE will give you ideas on the info that will be so very useful for us to help you.
This ARTICLE will give you some background on Video formats/CODEC's.
Good luck, and please let us know more about those files. A screen-cap of G-Spot would be very useful.
