PLEASE HELP!!! Some videos are out-of-sync when played on iPod

I bought a brand new black 30GB video iPod yesturday, I was excited as ever, but now I would convert a bunch of videos, they would play perfect on the computer, but when I put them on the iPod some of them would be out-of-sync. What is going on here? Is my iPod broken? I tried taking it back to firmware 1.0 and it's the same thing. Somebody please help me!

You most likely need a new converter. try videora http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/guides.html

Audio and video are not in sync when playing movies in iTunes

I have downloaded several movies from the iTunes store, and also ripped two digital copy discs into my iTunes library. When I try to play them, the audio is not in sync with the video. Very frustrating when you see the characters lips move, then about a second or two after, you hear what they were saying.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I am running most current version of iTunes, and QuickTime.

I have looked a little bit more, and it seems as though the video is lagging behind, not the other way around. Video seems choppy, but the audio is playing perfectly. Music Videos are suffering from the same problem as well. Also, when I sync to my iPod Touch 16GB, audio & video match up perfectly.
I still have no idea how to fix this. Please help.

Audio & video are out of sync (help!)

Please help, all of a sudden, my video and audio in my timeline and browser are out of sync. In the timeline, some audio clips match w/ their video, some don't. What's up with that? I've been editing this timeline for weeks, I had no problem until TONIGHT. In the same timeline or sequence, some clips are out of sync w/ their audio. Could it be something to do with dropped frames? I have this window that comes up now (whereas it didn't before) and in red, it reads:
RT Extreme has determed dropped were caused by slow disks. Please try:
-increasing the speed of your disk (huh?)
-decreasing the number of RT layers
-Limiting your RT bandwidth in User Preference.
I'm totally perflexed. Please help.
thank you
kchen

dear Jimmy,
I burned a tested DVD and the audio is fine. I guess the way I view was a bit misleading.
Thanks for your time...but i have another question. When playing my video back from the timeline, I still get this message in RED:
RT Extreme has determed dropped were caused by slow disks. Please try:
-increasing the speed of your disk (huh?)
-decreasing the number of RT layers
-Limiting your RT bandwidth in User Preference.
MY video disk has 150GB left, out of 250gb
my hard drive that has fcp has 120GB out of 300GB
do you know why my timeline keeps stopping and gives me this warning?
thanks Jimmy

Audio and Video are Out of Sync

Hello,
This seems to be a reoccurring problem for me and I'd love some help getting it resolved once and for all. After capturing footage, the audio and video are out of sync in the clip AND when I drag it to the timeline. When I go through each part, it looks like the video hesitates often, which seems to be causing the misalignment of audio. But, once it is moved into alignment, it goes out of sync again throughout the remainder of the one hour video.
I'm capturing through a Canon Optura 50 Mini DV and editing with FCP 6.0.1. I have checked that the audio mode is set to 16 bit on the camera, and the capture settings have the audio rate for 48 KHz.
This same problem occurred when I was capturing another event last week.
PLEASE advise. It won't get aligned even if I take the hours and hours to move the audio left and right frame by frame.

I am still wondering why you're recommending that I use an external drive for this project.
Because the internal has more than enough to do running Mac OS X and the applications. It is constantly writing files. While DV video is at the lower end of the scale, it is still asking a lot of the drive's read and write head.
I always used external drives, but we had many problems with delays and processing problems.
At the very least, you should be using FireWire external drives. USB is no good for video as it delivers data in packets, not the sustained stream that video needs. The drives must also be formatted as Mac OS Extended. Windows FAT 16 of FAT 32 formatted drives have file size limits of 2 and 4 GB respectively. Anything larger is segemented and can cause problems on a Mac.

Photo Booth Audio and Video are out of sync?

Hi. So there is this glitch that when I take videos on Photo Booth the audio and video are out of sync. This started after I upgraded to Mountain Lion, and since I use Photo Booth a lot, I really do care. Is there anyway that I can fix this until Apple fixes this bug? Thanks.
Extra Info: The first video I took was not out of sync, but after that they got more and more out of sync.

I've read all the forums. It's a big problem for most Photobooth users, Apple acknowledges it, but does not yet have a fix.
The best solution I have come up with is to dump Photobooth (I know - it was a great program, wasn't it? But so was Hypercard) and use Quicktime to make videos. You'll have to spend a little more work savings or exporting, but at least Quicktime is free.
Just open Quicktime Player and under the File menu you'll see "Record New Movie."
The downward slide continues...

Audio out of sync when playing HD content

Hey
I've got an issue with the audio gets out of sync when playing some HD content. I've tried to make sure the video is stored on the Apple TV so it can't be the network connection.
I've also tried a full reset of the unit, but still no luck.
But it's all video clips that has this problem. Even though they encoded the same and so on, some videos audio get out of synced and some don't.
Also have a problem with m4v files locking the ATV (and iTunes for that matter), but renaming it to a mp4 file seems to solve it. But if someone has a fix for that as well I'd much appreciate it.
Many thanks in advance,
Jeaz
EDIT: I have tried to use component cables instead of HDMI, but the problem remains. Of course also tested the video on my Mac and no problems. A quick pause and resume usually solves it, but only for a minute or so.

What sort of specification is the video content? Is spec too high for AppleTV.
It may be that it's some kind of bug in AppleTV's playback, that the Mac does not exhibit, or an issue with encoding that causes a problem only on AppleTV.
If you are encoding video and using same as source for the frame rate, it may be better in some cases trying explicitly to specify the frame rate required in case automatic frame rate conversion is introducing some kind of timing issue. Test a short clip to see.

Audio and Video are out of sync after time remaping.

After I did the time remap,audio and video are completely out of sync.
I don't know what I did wrong.Please HELP.
I did a short video(43seg) to explain myself better
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0PQEoZvGbk

ha. having the video is killer. there are a couple ways to do this. i'd recommend using the blade tool (tap b twice to get the one that cuts all tracks), make a cut through the audio and the video at the points where you want it sped up, then right click the clip itself (which should be linked with audio and video) and then just set it to whatever speed you want. it'll have the same effect. you might have to adjust boundaries or you can select ripple.
alternatively, it looks like you just needed to do the same thing to the audio that you did to the video in that clip you uploaded. you can always relink things by selecting the audio and video and hitting cmnd+L.
hope that helps.

Why is the audio on my video getting out of sync when it is imported into itunes?

Hello,
I have videos in the MP4 Format, and have imported them into itunes. However, during playback in itunes, the audio gets more and more out of sync as the video plays. By the end of the film the audio can be 5-6 seconds out!
What's strange is that the source file, played with quicktime or Windows media player, is fine and works perfectly.
Why is the audio stretched once it is imported?
Thanks,
James

I have the same problem.
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-MA785GPMT-UD2H
Chipset:
North Bridge: AMD 785G
South Bridge: AMD SB710
Video: Integrated ATI Radeon HD 4200
HDMI Audio through the HDMI port out to the TV.
Tried on Windows 7 Pro 32bit and Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit.
Tried with the integrated ALC889A audio device enabled and disabled (It seems that the video card drives the HDMI audio device though, because it still appears in Windows even if I disable the Audio device in BIOS).
Latest iTunes and drivers installed.
I have already tried all sugestions about matching Windows Audio settings to iTunes settings (bit depth, frequency rate).
Apple, any suggestions? I'm not having a great customer experience after buying a pair of HD movies in iTunes.

HELP: Audio regions get out of sync when I change tempo

I've got Logic Pro 9. I've recorded audio on a few tracks, and they sound great together. When I go to change tempo (either in the transport bar or in the tempo track), the regions change in size and move around horizontally, and get out of sync as a result.
Has anyone had this problem? Why should changing the tempo of the project affect the position of the audio regions IN RELATION TO ONE ANOTHER? I want them to stay in sync after changing tempo.
Thanks in advance!

The reason they move is that logic is a bar/beat based Sequencer rather than a time based sequencer like pro tools. The regions adhere to the tempo grid and when the tempo is changed, they seemingly lengthen or shorten because the tempo shifts the bar/beat grid with respect to time--and audio regions normally Are inflexible and last for a fixed amount of time no matter what the tempo is changed to. This is an advantage when your audio is quantized musical events, but for non musical events it's a disaster because it screws up your edits.
To fix the problem, find the timelock key command and highlight all regions you don't want the tempo change to affect. after selecting them all, timelock them with this command.
But, from your post Im guessing that you have bigger problems than this....Timelocking regions will only prevent region starts from shifting around and will leave all your edits unchanged. but it won't speed or slow down your audio; It will not alter lengths to fit a new tempo. if your tracks are music tracks in a certain tempo and you are trying to change the tempo of your recorded audio, you must enable the flex mode on each track. For this you should read the part of the manual on the flex engine. Bear in mind that the audio quality of this ranges from ok to terrible depending on the material.
The moral of the story is that you should try to arrive at the correct tempo before recording audio tracks.

Upon export, audio and video are out of sync.

While editing, my cuts are lined up with beats in the music, but after export they shift approximately 5 frames, making my cuts appear later.
The Sequence settings match the clip settings at 23.976 fps, and i've tried just about everything I can think of to fix the issue.
I've reverted back to previous Autosaves of the project, tried numerous export settings, separate and new projects, different machines, but nothing seems to work.
At this point I'll take any and all suggestions.

Please UN-check the "Frame Blending" box, that is only used when changing frame rates. The source and export are both 23.976, so that can only cause issues (blurring between frames with motion). Also uncheck "Max Render Quality", that is used for SCALING, such as 1080 to 720, or HD to SD. Your source and destination are both 1080p.
Rule of thumb - do NOT check boxes unless you really know what they do and the results they provide - the DEFAULT settings are there for a reason ;-)
Also, I never use "Match Source" - rather, figure out where the video is going (Blu-ray, web, device, etc.) and find an appropriate PRESET - there are tons of them under "H.264".
I'm assuming the video source is also 23.976? If source doesn't match sequence settings, that can be an issue with sync.
Try exporting entire sequence rather than In to Out. Try EXPORT rather than Queue.
Last thing, what is the source of the video footage? Some phones use "Variable Bitrate" recording and Premiere is not equipped to deal with that very well.

Audio and video are out of sync in I Movie.

Thanks for the last tip, miT. Everything worked out great transferring the TS files through to IMovie. The only hassle now is that the audio precedes the video by about 5 seconds. Is there a way of fixing this, or should i be transferring smaller bits (i had a chunk of about 2 hours, of which only the last 5 minutes is where the audio matters. The stuff before that was all old 8mm stuff from the forties & fifties). I'll try to monkey around with it some more.

With your big 2 hour clip in MPEG Streamclip, move the cursor to the start of the 5 minutes that "matters" and press i. Then move the cursor to the end of this 5 minute section, and press o.
Then File/Export Using QuickTIme in Apple Intermediate Codec. See if that helps.

HT1351 Some albums tracks are in the correct order in Itunes on my laptop but are out of order when input to ipod. How do I correct this please?

Some of my albums are not in the correct order when transferred from itunes on my laptop to my ipod classic. Can anyone suggest how I can correct this please

It goes by the Track # field, as seen in on a list in iTunes. So, make sure the Track # field is correctly entered for each song when you review the album on a list in iTunes. Also, make sure the Album field is entered identically for all the songs on the album.
You can edit those fields by doing a Get Info on a song, and going to the Info windows's Info tab,

My itunes video's are out of sync

hey guys
my music videos are out of sync------when i play them the sound always comes before the video if you know what i meen
any ways to fix this
cheers
jack

Are they legally or illegally downloaded videos? If they are illegal, check that the original file isnt out of sync. If it isn't, and you used a program to format the video to play on ipod, play the formatted version on your computer and see if that is out of sync or not. I suspect that this will be the case as a lot of programs out there don't do very good jobs of formatting videos.
If you did it legally though, I'm not sure how you'd solve the problem.

Premiere Elements 11 Audio & Video are not in sync

I am using Premiere Elements 11 for editing sermons, and recently I have noticed that in all of the finalized videos the audio and video are out of sync about half-way through the sermon. I know it is not the DVDs since they have no issues when running in a DVD player or with Windows Media Player. The DVD's that are formated after service break the sermon into three files. The files, after importing them to Premiere, read "VTS_01_1. VOB, VTS_01_2. VOB, VTS_01_3.VOB" The first file runs fine with no delay, but the last two consistently are off. When I first installed this program I had no trouble with this so I am wondering did I change something or is there a better way to do this.

terriCCC
Is your Premiere Elements 11 on Windows 7 or 8 64 bit?
How are you getting those VOBs to the Expert workspace Timeline?
Are you placing your DVD in the DVD burner tray, opening Premiere Elements 11 to use its Add Media/"DVD Camera or Computer Drive"/Video Importer with "Add To Timeline" and the ripped VOBs select in the Video Importer dialog? Or, other?
Please clarify what you are exporting your Timeline to for this playback that is out of sync...file saved to the computer hard drive or to DVD-VIDEO standard or widescreen format on DVD disc. Are you setting the correct project preset? If your DVD represents DVD-VIDEO standard is your project preset NTSC DV Standard; if your DVD represents DVD-VIDEO widescreen is your project preset NTSC DV Widescreen?
Each VOB cannot accept more than 0.99 GB. So, when more data are involved, another VOB is generated. Right now it looks like you have 3 x 0.99 GB on your Timeline. What total duration are you seeing? When you get to the burn dialog for one of these projects, what are you seeing in the burn dialog for Space Required and Bitrate.
When quality and out of sync audio occur with the ripping of the content into the video component VOBs, some have tried a seamless DVD.vob approach (combined VOBs in one file) using the computer Command Prompt and then importing the DVD.vob instead of the individual VOBs. I have written about this in a blog post.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/09/pe-dvd-videoseamless-vob-ripping.html
I do not know if we are ready for this just yet.
Let us confirmed the details of what you are doing now as per the questions that I have asked.
Please do not hesitate to ask if you need clarification on anything that I have written.
Thank you.
