Premiere Elements 7: Transitions: audio cut off brutally

Hello,
I got me this Elements 7 package since yesterday and I am impressed so far, but there is one thing that does not make it 100% perfect for me yet.
-> In scene line I put 2 clips next to each other, I add a transition between them. (cross dissolve)
-> Premiere will do the transition BUT
1. during the transition-effect the second clip is not playing, only showing the first frame until the transition-effect is over, giving this stop & go' effect, where it should run smooth into the other clip.
2. There is no transition in the sound (the audio of the first clip should run smoothly to silent and vice versa for the second clip)
This makes the sound cut off very brutally during a transition.
Am i doing something horribly wrong here? Is there someway to 'automate' the thing I want, because I use this mostly between much videos.
I thank you very much!

You need to trim some frames (half the transition duration) off each end of the two clips where the transistion is applied. It is really much better to work in Timeline view it makes things much clearer.
Or if you do not want to trim the clips, you can open up the transition "properties" window and drag the ends of the clips so they overlap. You do not then get repeated frames and so no need to trim the clips.
But first try clicking on the transition and in the "properties" window for the transition click on "Center at cut"

Video playback audio cuts off after few second

Pictures are fine but audio cuts off sometime around 5-10 seconds for the entire duration of the video unless you skip the video further a few seconds where the sound cuts off,audio are back but only for maybe 1 or 2 minutes then if you repeat the same step audio are back but again for only a few minutes,only occurs when not using headphones,but when I am using headphones video and the audio plays fine for the entire duration of the video.It annoys me as I don't usually use earphone.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all videos and resync/redownload
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:

Timing goes out and audio cuts off at end of published slide sequence

Hi
I am experiencing a problem with timing and the sound cutting off at the end of a slide sequence.
Here is my work flow:
I record what I want my slide show to say, add my music and sound effects in Soundbooth. I then create a mp3 file for my slide show.
I adjust my slide show timing to match my voice over, ensuring that the total number of minutes and seconds the slide show equates to matches the length of my audio. I then import my audio into my project while maintaining the slide timing.
If I preview the individual slides to match the timing of the arrival of words or pointers in my presentation by pressing the play button in Captivate, everything is great.... until I publish to a .swf file.
On a 2m:50sec slide show of 22 slides it cuts off approximately 5 seconds before the end. My timing which I have bent my brain on getting right, is out and appears to worsen the longer the slide show is or if it is not on the latest and greatest Mac powered computer.
I have gone so far as to increase the length of time on the last slide 5 seconds beyond the length of time that the audio occupies as well as adding another 5 seccond blank slide and still have the same cut off problem. No ideas how to help the poor souls who might not have an amazing computer to watch the demonstration on?
Interestingly if I publish and look only at the last 3 slides or if I look at a short sequence of slides or at a slide in isolation, my audio is there as it should be along with the timing. It would appear that the time "lost" or a lag between the presentation and the audio is the culprit.
Kindly advise if there is a solution to this or whether the problem lies with something I am doing.
Thank you in advance

Has there been any new developments on this problem?
I've been having to do some crazy work arounds to avoid audio cutting off at the end of slides when using CP5 for development.
Then this week I had to review an old training which was published a long time ago only to discover that the same issue of audio cutting off is happening there.
These materials were developed using CP4 and some even with CP3. This means that the problem/change is not CP5 but probably something to do with the Flash player version because at the time of publshing the older files did not have this issue.
This has me really worried. There is no way I can go back and update all the old files and it means that previously perfect materials are now being viewed with audio cutting off.
Have the Adobe Captivate developers considered the possiblity that this may be a flash player issue? Have you discussed this with the Adobe Flash developers? Will there be a fix for this anytime soon?
Thanks,
Aimee

Audio cutting off at the end of audio clips w no change in waveform?

Audio cuts off right at the end of some of my clips... I can still see the waveforms that have the full audio on them, but no audio plays for those last two or three seconds! My audio level is the same throughout the clip, so its not like its fading out or anything. This has been happeneing for a few weeks now, in multiple seperate projects.

Hi David,
Thanks for the response. I did look at the song that got cut off and it's a .m4a file. However, I also have normal audio that comes from an external Zoom recorder in .wav format that is getting cut off in the same way. The strange thing is I've never had a problem with this before a couple weeks ago. I've used this same song before and my external audio is always in .wav format

Audio cutting off

I'm using Captivate 5.5 w/all available updates. I have read through other discussions and attempted the suggestings to correct his issue. The audio cuts off on slide 1 (of 3) when published to Connect. I've uploaded it as a .cptx, .swf, and .zip. On exit is "no action". I don't know what else to do and my frustration level is max'd out. I need some help to correct this issue.

Thanks for the suggestion. I got it working by adding several items; 1. a transparant button running past the other page items, and 2. adding space at the end of my audio. I don't know which of these individual actions made it work and I'm not going to mess with it! So relieved it is working now and the content is now published!

Occasional Audio cut off

I've had users complain that sometimes my narrated tutorials have the first part of the audio cut off. However, it is not consistent. Sometimes the same tutorial's audio works fine when restarting. Any ideas?
Thanks so much.
Leona

Did you say your bandwidth was 32 kbps? That's barely better than an old FAX modem. I'm not surpised that your SWF might be buffering if your incoming bandwidth is that skinny.
Or did you mean 320 kbps?

Audio cuts off then video moments later for Jabber users when content is shared during a multipoint VC

       If a presentation* is being shown from a VC end point/or by Jabber, the audio cuts off, then the video of the Jabber user freezes. The call has not ended on our end we can still hear and see them. A few moments later their video on our end freezes and the audio is lost. The call is finally terminated a few moments after.
       When this happens to the Jabber participant they either have to restart Jabber or in some case have to reboot their PC
       The Jabber participant can be cut off from their class 2 to 3 times throughout the duration of the class
       This happens over all the MCU\blades, so doesn’t appear to be blade specific
       Only appears to happen in multi –point conferences not in point to point calls
*Presentation: This can be anything from a word document, to a PowerPoint presentation to a web browser
The warning they receive says:
The application has encountered a terminal problem.
Location:
Message: assertion failed. (link_ret = = GST_PAD_LINK_OK)

Is this problem specific to Jabber clients, or Jabber Guest? If the former, you'll have better luck over on the Jabber client forum:

Audio cuts off during fade to black transition

After completing my movie, I tried to add a simple fade in at the very beginning and a fade out at the end. The video image fades fine but the audio is off altogether during both transitions.
What's weird is that if I look at the audio track in the precision editor, it looks like it fades in and out perfectly with the video.
Please help!
Thanks,
Jeremy

Any takers? I'd be very keen to learn how to do this as well.
I have a "fade to black" at the end of my movie but I don't want the audio to fade until the end of the clip.

Premiere Elements 10 Transitions not working

I have added cross disolve transitions to Premiere Elements 10, and tried increasing duration, but does not seem to work (just vague blurring). I have recorded to DVD to see if transitions visible, but to no avail.
I have been successful in Premier Pro 4 and Serif X5, but wish to use Premier Elements as easier to split timeline and make cuts (tedious in PremierPro 4). Can't afford Premier Prof 5!!
Downloaded from Canon HV 30 HDV camcorder. Over 20 hours of video to edit!
Any suggestions?

Welcome to the forum.
There can be several reasons that a Cross-Dissolve (or some other Transitions) might not work.
One of the most common is that the user just makes a Cut, but does not alter the footage, and when they place the Cross-Dissolve over that Cut, there is not change, as the Frames have not changed.
The next is when one adds a Cross-Dissolve between Clips, that do not have adequate Handles, extra Frames, that are necessary for the Transition to function properly. This ARTICLE goes into more detail on Handles.
Do either of those situations have anything to do with what you are experiencing?
If not, can you post a screen-cap, showing the Clips, to which you are having issues with the Cross-Dissolve Transitions, and tell us exactly what you have done, prior to the addition of the Transition?
Good luck,
Hunt

Premiere Elements 12 MP4 Audio out of Sync

Hi, I have just purchased Premiere Elements 12 and im editing MP4's but it seems that for some reason when i import them into PE12 the audio and video is fine up to a certain point then for some reason the audio gets out of sync. But when i play the raw file in VLC its totally fine =\ Anyone have any ideas?
Windows 7 64 Bit with 64bit Version installed.
P.S It seems to just happen on longer videos around 10mins
The only way ive managed to fix this is ungroup the audio and video and cut the audio down so its in sync.. im not doing that every time. Pretty dissapointed with this software tbh =\

This is not Adobe. This is a user to user forum.
If you want to contact Adobe, the way to do that is via its Adobe Chat for questions specific to Premiere Elements 12 (the current version, while it still is the current version).
This is the link to Adobe Chat for you to explore:
Contact Customer Care
NVIDIA Shadow Play that you are using, apparently for screen capture purposes, is a NVIDIA product. Have you contacted NVIDIA about its product which appears to be a "beta" version at that?
If you can supply more details about your source, perhaps I could spot the core of the issue. Properties from a video audio properties readout program such as MediaInfo would be very helpful in this regard. I find it curious that the properties readout that you post has no Video and Audio bitrate. The video compression shown appears to be H.264 and the audio format seems to be AAC. But what is the wrapper format as represented by the file extension of the file.
An aside....By the way, QuickTime is a requirement for Premiere Elements (any version). And it, like Premiere Elements needs to be run from a User Account with Administrative Privileges and often also with Run As Administrator applied.
Please clarify, you seem to be saying, that 4 or 5 months ago, you could work with "NVIDIA Shadow Play Beta" recorded video in Premiere Elements 12 without issue, but now you cannot?
a. Do you have the audio out of sync video issue with both the video recorded 4 or 5 months ago and the video recorded today?
b. Is the problem gone for both when you roll back the driver version to what it was 4 or 5 months ago.
The answers to both of those questions would be a good starting point.

Premiere Elements 11 - No audio on playback using MP4 or MOV video files

Hello,
I've recently started using Premiere Elements for a project I'm working on and I'm learning as I go.
When I'm adding a video that plays audio in another program to Premiere, the audio won't play.
I've checked the audio and audio hardware settings and they both seem fine. The mixer is not muted and when I publish the file, there is still no audio.
Any help or suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Dale

I am assuming that you are working with Photoshop Elements 12 and Premiere Elements 12. On what computer operating system are they running?
Can you open your .avi file in the Elements Organizer 12 and playback the file there and hear audio in the playback?
We have just helped a Premiere Elements user resolve a no sound with .avi file in another thread. Her answer was to update Premiere Elements 12 to 12.1 (See opened project Help Menu/Update.) Why is there no sound on avi files?
The details are in the link cited in my conversions with the user Vickie.
The full video and audio properties of the problem files are needed to evaluate situation such as you describe. In the case of the other user, she was not able to give us anything beyond .avi file. But, fortuately that 12.0 to 12.1 suggestion came to the rescue nonetheless. Bottom line is that, if the 12.0 to 12.1 Update does not resolve your issue, then we will need to go "by the book" and gather file properties, project settings, and the like to try to target the cause of your audio issue. Have you added to this project any narration clips from the program's Narration Tool?
If you create a new project, can you hear the audio from this .avi file in it? Is the problem confined to one .avi file or to any of these .avi files that you import into new or pre-existing projects. Can you hear the audio from non .avi files?
Looking forward to your follow up.
Thanks.

Premiere elements 12 - no audio

Longtime Photoshop Elements and Premiere user... now on v12. Premiere seems to work fine until I just realized there is no audio...
I can't hear audio in the preview playback
there is no audio track at the bottom of the screen
when I write out MP4 files, no audio is present.
Any ideas? O/S is Windows 8.1

Hi A.T.
Here are responses to you questions...
Did you update it yet from 12 to 12.1 via the opened project's Help Menu/Update? YES
You say that you are a longtime Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements user. What was the most recent version of these programs that you worked with and on what computer operating system immediately before going to version 12 on Windows 8.1 64 bit? I've used 3 or 4 prior releases. I just upgraded from v9 => v12. v9 was running on Win7; v12.1 is running on Win8.1 (64-bit)
Are you working in the Expert or Quick workspace of Premiere Elements 12? Primarily Quick, but I use Expert when I need to manipulate sound
Because of the longtime in your description of your programs usage, I hesitate to ask, but I will anyway so as not to take anything for granted.
a. Are you working Run As Administrator as well as from User Account with Administrative Privileges? I am the only user of the machine, so my user account and Admin are one in the same.
b. Do you have the latest verison of QuickTime installed on your computer? Yes
c. What are you or the project setting as the project preset to match the properties of the source media?
d. What are the properties of the source media?
e. What are the details of your export to a .mp4 file?
Have you gone through the drill of checking the ASIO settings in preferences? Yes Can we assume that the no audio is only in Premiere Elements 12 on Windows 8.1 64 bit? Correct
Are the Volume settings (Adjust Tab/Adjustments Palette/Volume Panel) as well as audio clip rubberband) OK? Not sure...
Could you post a screenshot of your workspace where you say that there is no audio track? The audio track is physically present in the input sample, is just not audible. When I write out a MP4, there is no audio track present.
Have you attempted to delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file and/or the 12.0 Folder in which it exists? No... Nof familiar with doing that.

Beginning of audio cut off

I am having issues with several tutorials I am developing.
Not every slide, but many have a narration. There is plenty of room
at the front of the audio (silence) and I have even tried moving
the audio down the timeline a second or so, yet when I publish it
and preview it, some frames the first few seconds of the audio is
cut off. Sometimes if I hit the "previous" frame button, it plays
fine the second time around, but not always. Some of these .cp's
are 100 frames or so, could that be the problem. Thanks in advance.
PS. Ive been doing this for years for a living, usually use
Flash, was working for General Dynamics, I normally would stay away
from such large movies, nothing but trouble. But this is how the
client wants them.

Hello kcore66,
Would it be possible for you to upload one of the files in
question so that I can take a look. In Captivate 1.01 there is an
intermittent problem where sometimes the audio is either cut off or
just doesn't play when you publish / preview. To get around this
simply moving the audio object back and forth along the timeline
and then positioning it back in it's original position works 9
times out of 10.
HTH

Mark

Premiere Elements 11 AVI Audio Issue

Hey there,
I'm fairly new to this software and am playing around in it to get a feel so bear with me if I'm completely overlooking the source of my problem.
When I import my video to the editor, about an 8 minute .avi clip, the video plays at regular speed but the audio sounds like it's slowed immensly. (A low growl, can't tell if it's only bass or the audio slowed to 400% about.) I've tried speeding up the clip (audio included) and it just becomes a faster version of the slow growl audio. The original video plays fine in the clip organizer and in windows media. I've tried saving, rendering, etc. but it doesn't help. Non .avi clips seem to work fine, it's just the one's from my screen recorder (which may be the issue) that 'brake.' I hope someone understands what my problem is, any misunderstandings, feel free to ask.
Thanks for your time, cheers.

Keynote 6.5 audio cuts off in the middle of a recording

I am trying to record a Keynote presentation with narrative then convert it to a movie and post it to YouTube. I created and saved the presentation, verified the recording then exported it to Quicktime. From there, I loaded it up to YouTube but discovered that the audio was cut off within the first minute or two. When I went back to the original recording, it appears that the audio was cut off when it was being converted to a movie. Is this a known bug or am I doing something wrong? Any fixes out there? Thank you.

One example of an affected clip:
Source is from a Panasonic HD camera--so transferred to FC from a P2 card
Item properties:
817.5 MB
960x720
DVCPRO HD 720p60, Interger (little Endian), Timecode
Hey--could this be caused by the frame rate of the sequence? I just noticed that the sequence these affected clips are in is 60fps, and my video clips are 23.98fps. So--I copied and pasted my clips into a new 23.98 sequence and the issue has gone away. Huh. Oops... Not enough coffee this morning.
Thanks for trying to help out--sorry to have answered my own question (duh).
