Patch in Audio from Similar Video Clip

I have video of our church's Christmas play, shot with a Panasonic TM700. The audio is with the video, from the camcorder. My problem is that in some of the dialog, one girl's lapel mic quit working, so every time she speaks its really hard to hear what she says.
I have similar video from a dress rehearsal where this person's mic was working fine. I'd like to be able to replace the bad audio from the actual performance with the good audio from the dress rehearsal, just for this one person. Can someone suggest a good workflow for that? Can it all be done in FCPX, or does the good audio need to be extracted from the video before bringing it in?

Never mind, I figured this out. I just imported the clips from the rehearsal to my event, right clicked and chose Open in Timeline, then copied and pasted the audio from there to my project. Pretty easy.

On iMovie how can you mute a section of the sound track so you can hear the audio from the video clip?

.

Hey,
If you double-click on the soundtrack you can open it up in the inspector tab and lower the soundtrack so that you can hear the audio from the video clip.

How to extract audio from a video clip

I am editting a video, and I need to extract the audio from a video clip. On the old iMovie it was really easy, all you had to do was press apple K I think. Thanks in advanced for your help.

Select the clip in the sequence.
Then command-L to unlink the clips.
Then select the audio and delete.
As a suggestion, two things:
1. Explain what you want to do. If it is delete the audio, then that is different than extracting the audio;
2. Do a search in the pdf manual in the help manual

Trying to combine audio from a video clip with a photo

Is there a way to allow the audio of a video clip to continue, while the visual is changed? I'm trying to insert a photo to replace the last few seconds of a video as the song in the video finishes.

Not at the moment. Hopefully at some point they will add a feature to independently trim the audio and video to allow this type of edit, otherwise known as an L cut.

How to extend audio from a video clip over an adjacent still image

I'm in iMovie 11. My project looks like this: video A, transition, still image B, transition, video C. I want the sound from video C to start playing while still image B is on the screen. I tried following the iMovie 11 help instructions for extending a video clip's audio. I click on video C and open the precision editor. From there I can grab video C and move it back so that it overlaps with the still image, but all that happens is the still image still shows up, without sound, and video clip C starts in the middle. The help instructions seem to indicate that I should be able to drag only the audio and make that overlap the still image, but it's not happening. Either the video and audio move together, or nothing moves.
When I try detatching video C from its audio, I just end up with a big mess because later the audio and video don't synch up.
What am I doing wrong?

I am having the same challenge... any tips here would help me out in a big way. I recorded my boss tdoing a training session and now I would like to have the powerpoint slides change as necessary - but I want the audio to remain. I would love to just get the slides to change rather than back to full before bringing up the next slide. Jim, if you come up with anything, let me know. I have VC2 pro.

Taking audio from one video clip to another

Hello,
In editing a short film, there are scenes where the director is talking in the background, while the action is going on. If I like the video of this particular take, but want to use sound from another take, what would be the best way of doing this? I could conceivably take the sound from the one clip and put it in with the desired video clip, but, I do not know if that is the most efficient way, especially when it comes to matching up everything - thanks!

This is one of the basics of editing Kristina. Just cut the video you want on V1 (video only), then put the audio you want on V2. This happens ALL the time. Director giving directions in the middle of shots. This is one of the reasons we get room tone after we are done shooting, before you wrap a set. Need to have something to cover the hole you make in cutting out the BANGS and dolly moves and director talking...stuff like that.

Is there a way to separate audio from a video clip in iMovie HD?

iMovie 6.0.4
Sorry if this has been answered before.
Is there any way to edit audio within iMovie? What I mean is, importing an audio file but then editing and separating the audio file into smaller pieces. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks for any help, much appreciated!

Edit the same as you would a video clip. Highlight the audio clip by clicking on it, then select the place you want to edit it with the playhead, go to EDIT and select Split Audio Clip at Playhead.

Can you record the audio from a Video embedded in a pdf?

I can't seem to find anything on this, so I will ask. A client sent us a company produced interactive pdf and wants us to use the audio from a video clip that is in the pdf. We asked for the audio clip but they don't know who to get it from and just keep saying it is in the pdf. While others try to explain that a pdf and an mp3 are not the same thing. I get to look into a fall back position of trying to extract the audio (or video). There is no copyright issue here. Client peon just can't/won't get the proper file.
Maybe some one can help or point me to info that says it is not possible.
Thanks.

WireTap Studio did the trick. I downloaded a free Trial version and bob's yer uncle.
Thanks Michael

After I detach audio from the video, and I go to delete the video portion but keep the audio, it deletes both. Am I doing something wrong?

Hello Everyone!
I would appreciate your support if you can. I know how to detach the audio from a video clip. Once this is done I wanted to add another video shot (B-roll) over the audio I detached. When I go to delete the video (which is detached form the audio) It deletes both of them automatically.
Is there something I am doing wrong? Do I need to unpin the audio somehow?
Thanks again.

Can anyone help me figure why there is a popping sound when I move from an iphoto still image to a new video clip? The sound has been removed from the video clips and there is another soundtrack underneath it all. Help?

My current project is like many I have created in the past. I have removed the sound from my video clips and laid another soundtrack under the entire project. Now, when I add an iphoto still image to the project, when it goes back into video there is a popping sound. I've never had this happen in the past and have made many projects in the past just like this one. Any way to troubleshoot this issue? Thanks so much for your help.

Audio from inserted video keeps playing on next slide

Hello,
I'm experimenting with Adobe Presenter 6. I have inserted a
video clip into a slide. There is a stop action on frame1 with a
button that advances to frame2. The video has audio, which
unfortunately keeps playing if I advance to the next slide. If I go
once slide further ahead, the audio from the video stops. Has
anyone else encountered this problem? It's driving me crazy!
Thanks!

Hi Doc!
I actually ran into the same situation...not with a video
clip, but with a basic flash animation that had audio in it. I'm
not suggesting that the following will definitely work for you, but
it might be worth taking a look at:
Any audio that's set to "Event" while editing in Flash will
continue to "stream" , even while navigating between slides. In
most cases that I've seen (from my experience), audio will stop if
the offending slide is placed immediately before a question slide.
I realize that might not be practical in every case, so....
1. Make sure that audio sync settings in flash are set to
"Stream". What this does is effectively kill off any audio once you
navigate away from the slide that has the embedded flash on it.
2. you can always add a stopAllSounds(); method in flash, but
that's not highly recommended
UNLESS your content slide (with the offending flash object )
comes immediately before, or within a range of question slides.
Again, this too might not be entirely practical based on what
you're trying to do.
I realize that might not help, but as I said, it might be
worth taking a look at how you're incorporating your video.

Separating audio from the video

I'm new to this version of iMovie. I only knew how to use an older one from high school, I don't know which version that was, but it had three bars at the bottom to place video and audio files.
Anyway, I need to know how to separate the audio from a video file while still being able to keep the video clip. Plus, how do you adjust the volume of only certain clips, like for it to start off quiet, but gradually increase in volume?
Thanks!

[See this blog post for instructions|http://imovie08.blogspot.com/2007/08/how-to-extract-audio-from-cli p.html]
This all becomes much simpler in iMovie 09.

Nur den Audio-Teil eines Video-Clips noch einmal verwenden

Möchte den Audio-Teil eines Video-Clips noch einmal verwenden und diesem Audio-Teil dann ein Standbild zufügen. Wer kann mir hier helfen?

Gerhard Becker
What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
In the absence of that information, I will generalize.
1. You right click a copy of the Timeline file with the video and audio linked and then select Delete Video from the pop up.
2. Then you drag your Still Image to the Timeline and align it with your audio file.
You can leave that still audio positioning as is or "Group" the two so that they move together (if you want to move them together).
For that, select/highlight the still and audio portions (hold down Shift and click video portion and then audio portion), right click in the selection, and select Clip Menu/Group from the pop up.
Please let us know if that generalized answer works for you. If not, more details please.

Removing music but not speech from a video clip??

As a music teacher I want to remove the music from a video clip but not the speech so that my students can compose their own music to accompany the clip. Is there any way I can do this in iMovie?

Hi
You are describing to scarce. Is music and speech separated in time or do they over-lap ?
• If separated - Yes audio can be muted
• If over-lap - No Music and Speech is airborne wave or air compressions in time. So they are of the same nature and a program that would be able to differentiate them would be a NASA-project and most probably beyond. (most probably in need of Field-Vector-Analysis - and big big big Computer)
What You have is
• Silence parts that is not speech - better done in an Audio-editor as Audacity (free on internet) then using Equalizer filter to decrease frequencies not dominated in the speech. And that's about the best one can do.
In TV-broadcasting one more often silence all audio and Speech Dubbed. Tedious but best possibly result.
Anecdotal - In Sweden 1950-1960 there was a Composer/Music master Sten Broman who wanted an Accordion-filter on his Radio. To be told in any program he appeared in.

Recording Audio from DVD Video

Hi,
I have a music concert video on DVD. I would like to record a song off the video so that I can learn to play the guitar part. Is there any software out there that will separate the audio from the video, or in other words, capture the audio and maybe convert it to mp3 format so that I can play it in iTunes without playing the video?
Sincerely,
Jim

Audio Hijack will let you capture audio from any running Mac Os X application.
