Problem with audio after encoding

Hi,
In my movie I added a couple of songs. When playing back the DVD I created with iDVD (using professional encoding), I realised the audio of the songs was very distorted or something. It didn't sound very clear or crisp. I had originally saved the project as a disc image, so, did I do something wrong? Or did this problem happen because of the encoding or something?
Thanks.

Hi
How did the DiskImage play with Apple DVD-player ? OK ?
Most probably one of two things has happened.
a. I only use .aiff audio in my movies eg from miniDV tape video or from standard audio-CDs
• mp3 or from iTunes = Problems
• mp3 I convert to .aiff then import into iMovie
• iTunes - I export out as an audio-CD with iTune pref set to export as .aiff
then using this in my movie project
(Strange formats of video material can also be trouble makers
I only use streamingDV
• .wav, avi, .mpg4 etc. I convert to this first)
b. Low free space on the internal (boot) hard disk also gives strange results
• Never under 25Gb free space when running iDVD is my goal

  • Problems with audio after playback

    So sorry in advance if this has been asked before but im not 100% sure on how to describe the problem im having with my audio after export. heres a link to the video- https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Byffs2-9EE3bdDdWcDNVNGVaMnc/edit?usp=sharing . ***PLEASE NOTE THAT THE LYRICS ARE EXPLICIT AND WHILE THE VIDEO MAY BE OF A VIDEO GAME IT IS GRAPHIC*** So the audio sounds fine while editing and when i export the level is around -18db but when playing it back in quicktime it almost sounds like its crackling and popping and im unsure why. if it makes a difference im playing it back through some monitors connected through my UA Apollo Quad interface. thanks to anyone who can help me figure out whats wrong.

    Hi fox5urf3r,
    Welcome to the forum. I would suggest that you try listening on other speakers. Sounds OK to me.
    Thanks,

  • Problem with audio after upgrade

    Hi all,
    I am experiencing some audio issues after upgrading my MBP8,2 15" (early 2011 with i7 2GHz processor and 16 GB RAM) to OS X Yosemite. In particular, sometimes the audio simply doesn't work with internal speakers - the volume indicator goes up and down but I don't ear anything - and with external speakers I need to unplug and plug the connector often because they stops working, and in this case neither the volume indicator works.
    Does anybody is experiencing the same issues? Could anybody please help?
    Thank you in advance.
    Best,
    Pierluigi

    Same issue over here and even worse.
    1. My system even changes Audio-Devices randomly on it's own.
    2. Sometimes I have to restart programs after switching a Audio-Device manually to make it work.
    3. Sometimes audio completely stops working by chance.
    4.  When I want to select a different Audio-Device sometimes it works with "Audio-Midi-Setup"-App, sometimes it works with "Systempreferences" -> Audio.
         Sometimes with none of both. -.-
    5. Clicking on the audio sign in the menubar while holding "alt/opt" in order to change Audio-Devices works not, too.

    I can't wait for an update that fixes that.

  • Problems with audio programs after update to Maverics

    After updating to Mavericks on my Mac Mini there is problem with audio programs. I cant open iTunes at all, I click it and it disappear in a second. Also when I press play in GuitarPro 6 or in Vox player nothing happens. It just wont start playing. I really dont like this update.. and my mac is slower now. I cant downgrade my system back so this is really frustrating to me as a musician.

    I have the same problem with my Conceptronic CH3HNAS and have found a free and easy solution.
    Since a lot of people report they are able to access their NAS using apps other than the Finder itself, I decided to look for a free Lion-compatible File Manager to use instead of Finder.
    I have found muCommander ( http://www.mucommander.com/ ) and indeed it works fine. All I did was click on the button highlighted bellow, go to "bonjour services" and select my NAS. It prompted me for my username and password and voilá, it works fine.
    I keep Finder for everyday use and just load muCommander when I want to access the NAS. At least now I don't have to start my WinXP VM anymore just to access it.
    Hope it helps you.

  • Are the problems with Compressor's encoding fixed yet?

    Sorry for the slightly vague title but I only use compressor once a year basically, which is after the production of a Christmas show I produce. Last year I upgraded ot Final Cut Studio to do the DVD and got caught out. I encoded using what I thought was the best setting (2 pass variable bit rate) and got jittery encoding. After investigating on this very forum, I found lots of comments about known problems with Compressor's encoding in this setting and ended up re encoding using one pass which was "ok".
    I'd rather do the best job I can so the basic question is, "is it fixed yet". Keeping in mind I understand about altering settings so that I can get the time I need onto one disc (110 minutes unfortunately!) What setting will offer me the best possible picture quality, regardless of encoding time, with compressor? Many, many thaks for any advice you regular user can offer!!
    Happy Christmas in advance, Gareth

    Gareth:
    According what was posted in this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=760041&tstart=15
    by Brian a lot of problems must be solved using the last 2.3 version.

  • Problem with Audio on HP Envy 6-1130sw (C6F62EA)

    Hello everyone.
    I have a problem with audio on my ultrabook HP Envy 6. Sometimes when I try to play music there are no low tones and music plays really silent... And then when I restart PC problem dissapears and music plays fine... I thought there is a problem with speakers, but when I connected 5.1 speakers there were also only high tones. Same thing happens on headphones. Is it a hardware problem or maybe software? Actually I use Windows 8.1 and drivers are up to date. If any one of you had same problem please post.
    Thanks. 

    Hi piotrek1130sw,
    From what you have described, I think the best approach would be to restore the original IDT driver, restart the computer, test that driver, then install the driver update, and test the outcome of installing the newest driver.
    Use the following link for instructions to recovery the ITD driver using Recovery Manager. Restoring applications and drivers.
    Once the driver is restored, restart the computer and test the audio. If the audio is good you can continue to use this driver, or you can reinstall the update and see what happens. IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver.
    If installing the newest driver causes the issue to occur but the recovered driver worked, I suggest recovering again.
    If neither driver works I will gladly follow up and provide any assistance I can.
    Please let me know the outcome.

  • Problem with Java after Software Update to 10.5.7

    Hi,
    I am facing problem with Java after having run Software upgrades.
    Here is the whole story. I recently moved to iMac 10.5.6 from PowerPc 10.4. On this new machine I was having problem running a 3rd party application, which requires JVM. As this application worked well on Tiger, I decided to upgrade JVM on my iMAC using Software Upgrade(was I insane!!). As I like my systems to be updated (as with linux on my personal machine) I clicked "install all". As a result I have the following upgrades run on my machine:

    Hi man,
    In the wake of this java problem I resorted to keep working on my old machine, and today in my spare time I tried to fix this new machine.
    So I execute $java on prompt, and then try to check the files it has opened, using lsof -p pid
    I see it referring to
    /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0/Home/bin/java
    isn't this usually the JAVA_HOME
    However, executing $/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.5.0/Home/bin/java
    hangs!!
    but
    $/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home/bin/java
    works!!
    $ pwd
    /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6/Home/bin
    $ ./java -version
    java version "1.6.0_07"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_07-b06-153)

    Linking my Current and CurrentJDK to 1.6 and it works!
    However, shall that be the reason!
    what is in your /Versions/Current/
    I got the following
    $ ls /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current
    CodeResources Frameworks JavaVM
    Commands Headers Resources
    There is no /Home in here, which is usually the case for /1.5 or /1.6
    Anyways, things seems to work for the moment. Lets see if I get problem with using Java.

  • Problems with Mail after upgrading to 10.9.1

    I am running into problems with Mail after installing 10.9.1. I had NO problems with Mail prior to this update.
    Problems I have encountered so far are:
    - I don't receive some e-mails on my Gmail account.
    - I have sent e-mails that supposedly got "sent" but do not show up in my Sent box both on mail and on web Gmail. My Outbox is empty also.
    Has anyone encountered the same problems and found a solution?
    Thanks in advance!

    Yes Paul I have, but no solution. I cannot send email. My ISP uses a smtp mail server for sending and It will not log in. Have had ISP on phone and checked all settings. Can only put it down to Mavericks.
    It worked OK for a week after upgrading then stopped. So now having to use web mail to send email.
    Strange thing is I receive mail OK, just cant send.

  • HT1589 problems with itunes after updating..can't locate some of my songs..some have an exclamation point beside them how do i get these songs back in my itunes

    I'm having problems with itunes after updating. I've lost all my playlists,,finally played around with it and got the songs back but some have an exclamation point beside them and can't be located. they are songs i've purchased. I'm not very computer literate so this is a major problem. I have spent hours with this. I just want all my songs to play even though I'm not happy that I have to recreate my playlists. It would be so much easier if I knew and understood how to correct this. Has anyone else had this problem and if so..is there an easy way to correct it?

    Not sure how this is an ipod touch question.
    Perhaps you should post in the itunes forum.
