Problems with imported mono audio with stereo HD video FCE4

This is with Final Cut Express 4.
So here is what I am doing: I am recording video of my flight lessons inside my airplane with a mounted Panasonic HDC-TM90 HD camera. Since it is noisy inside the plane, I am using an Olympus VN-4100PC digital voice recorder to pick up the Air Traffic Control and Intercom within the airplane (between me and my instructor) which is 22 KHZ mono. I am doing this because I want the sound of the airplane and also the communication so everything works together and you get the best of both worlds (otherwise you would hear one or the other and that's pretty boring). Ok, enough with the intro.
Here is what I am having problems with -- when I get the video, stereo audio with the video and the mono audio all lined up in FCE in my timeline, it starts to get out of sync about 10 minutes or so into the film. And it gets worse as the film goes on. This is driving me nuts and I have NO idea out to fix it.
The only thing I can think of is that my Digital Voice Recorder is recording at a slightly faster speed than the camera's audio and this is why it gets out of whack.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? Or at least give me an explanation why it is happening?
Thanks for any help!!

Thanks for the reply. I did this and it still doesn't seem to be matching up properly. Tell me if maybe I missed something.
1. I took the original .WAV file from my Digital Recorder and imported it into iTunes and then converted it into an .AIFF.
2. I took the .AIFF file and imported it into MPEG Streamclip and exported it as another .AIFF file that was Stereo and 48kHz.
Is there a step I missed?

Problem Exporting / Importing print forms with program RSTXSCRP

Hi!
there is problem Exporting / Importing print forms with program RSTXSCRP.
when I transfer print form from one SAP system to other, logo image and some text is missing... what could be the reason?
Maybe there is other way to transfer print forms between SAP systems without using program RSTXSCRP?
Will reward,
Mindaugas

Hi,
when you transfer print forms from one sap system to another, logos are not transfered automatically. these are actually .bmp files which need to be existing in every client. then only when you run your print program logo can be seen in your print output. hence logos need to be created explicitly in every client where you want to run your print program.
thanks,

How to convert mono audio to stereo during import?

When I shoot my videos for YouTube I use an external mic which works great but when my camera records it, it is mono sound, so only the left channel of my source videos contain the talking.
In the previous version of iMovie 9 I used to be able to export using QuickTime and convert the audio to mono so the final video which is uploaded has sound coming out of both speakers.
Honestly I don't care what format my exported files are in, as long as they're HD and the audio is good. So the new .mp4 file format is no problem for me with iMovie 10.0.1
In the lastest version of iMovie (10.0.1) I can't see a way to convert my mono audio to "real" mono or stereo sound (whatever it's called) so the sound comes out of both speakers. Having the talking only coming out of one speaker now makes me look like an idiot on YouTube.
I tried a stereo/mono adapter where the mic connects to the camera but it resulted in no sound. So I'm hoping I can use an audio fix somehow using iMovie 10.0.1 to fix 'er up. What are my options guys?
Yes I'm aware I can still use iMovie 9, which is what I've reverted back to until I can fix this problem.
Thanks.

For now, I think that is the best choice.
You could also buy QuickTime Pro 7 which will allow you to do the same mono conversion that iMovie version 9 does.

IMovie Problems: Photo import and audio-video out of sync.

Photo import problem:
Some times, I have problems importing photos onto my new project, the photos will appear to be that just one same photo when played. It does not transit to the other photos following the first, it's just stuck on the first. Is this just an issue with iMovie '11? Are there any other ways to resolve this problem?
Audio-video out of sync:
I've checked some other discussions but I'd like to raise this issue again for APPLE. There are problems exporting my 7-minute film - the video and audio go completely out of sync no matter what format I export it to. There are not a lot of clips used. I'm now trying the method to detach the audio files from the video, hopefully it works.
These issues are bothering me, in addition to a failed firmware update on Mac OSX 10.7.2 a few weeks ago. I couldn't open my computer and I had to go to the Genius Bar to have them help me backup my files on my computer and reinstall the whole system again. Anyways, any help to the above iMovie issues are greatly appreciated. Just wish that Apple will address these current issues and not just focus on improving their products with awesome features ._.

Sudden problems with importing/editing audio files

I podcast my lectures, which run about 1 hr 15 mins. My SOP was to drag and drop an mp3 or AAC version of the original audio capture into Garageband and then split the file into two separate podcast episodes. Since the big Apple Software upgrade, however, this procedure doesn't seem to work. The file imports and plays, but I can no longer split it into multiple regions (it also shows a flat line for the entire track). Any ideas?

I am having the same problem. Looking for a fix and will post as soon as possible. This all happened after the new software update.

Problem with import - very short footage in broken video

Hi everyone, I am a new Mac user... I bought iMac with Leopard 10.5.2 and of course iMovie 08. Today I have wanted import my home video from Sony HC23 miniDV to iMovie. Unfortunately footage is broken in 2 minutes section (probably dirty video head). So If i tried import this section, iMovie import only 2 sec of footage... Does exist a solution how to get whole 2 minutes broken footage into iMovie?
I dont want to lose this section because video is approx.1:20 sec fine without stripes...
Thanx to everyone !
Jakub (czech)

No, it didn't solve my problem. I already did that.
I think the problem is not from SWT package. I can't import any package from org.eclipse. It's strange because when eclipse starts I do see something on its splash screen like "loaded org.eclipse. ..."
Any other suggestions ?

Sudden problem with importing tiff files with alpha channel (CS5)

OK this is driving me nuts. For years I have been importing image files that have an alpha channel into FCP as.tiff files. I use Photoshop files only when I want to use the layers as they are too cumbersome otherwise). I have recent upgraded Photoshop, etc. to CS5 and now FCP won't import them anymore. I get a message saying: "File error: 1 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown"
I am not doing anything different and tiff files created in just the same way in an earlier version of Photoshop import and work just fine. Is this a CS5 bug? Does anyone know of a work around. I want to keep using tiff files as they seem to work best for me with alpha channel work (and I don't see why I need to reinvent the wheel).
Thanks
A

I've had a similar issue recently. Same TIFF files downloaded from the same server, different FCP project, new error. I either see"File error: 1 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown" or I get the even stranger, "Unrecognized file type."
I can open them in PS and save them again as TIF, same results. I know these are not CMYK files but even if resave the TIF as RGB, I get the same results, they are not recognized by FCP.
But if I open them in PS and save them as PNG with alpha, they improt fine.
I have no idea what's going on.

Quality issue with importing edited audio from Adobe Audition CS6 to Articulate 09

I have edited an audio file using Adobe Audition CS6 and the playback sounds fine. I then import the edited file into Articulate'09 and the audio sounds horrible, very tinny and not useable. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this issue? I have tried saving the audio files as mp3 and wav to see if that would help and it did not make a difference.

I checked - it certainly supports both formats, but you'd have to be a lot more specific about what's wrong, because 'sounds horrible' doesn't convey anything meaningful at all, I'm afraid. And we have no idea of the format you are using - it's very possible that if it's being resampled on the way in by the operating system. If that's the case you have to find out specifically what formats (in terms of bit depth and sample rate) that this software actually supports.
Bottom line is that I'm afraid that this isn't very likely to be an Audition problem at all - you may get a more detailed and meaningful response from Articulate themselves.

Mono audio in stereo clips...

I have several video clips in my current iMovie project that were recorded using a mono microphone. The problem is that these are on a stereo track and aren't recognised as mono by iMovie. The result is that, for all clips recorded with an external mic, I only get audio in the left channel.
Is there any way I can fix this in iMovie or do I have to extract audio for each and every clip and fix them manually in a sound editor?
Thanks in advance,
-fh

"..do I have to extract audio for each and every clip and fix them manually in a sound editor?.."
Yup.
'Audacity' is a free audio editor, and lets you do just that.
In iMovie HD, 'Extract' the audio, as you suggest, then double-click the extracted clip(s) to see what iMovie calls it (them) ..possibly "Voice 01", or some such. [..In iMHD6 it'll be called "Extracted audio 01", probably..]
Then, in your audio editor, navigate to the name of your project, and look - if you've been using iMovie HD 5 - in the 'Media' folder inside your movie project's folder. In there, you'll find "Voice 01", or whatever it is.
Then copy the left channel (if that's what's been recorded) to the right channel, as shown here (click on Start Slideshow to get larger images)..
You can also, apparently, do that copying and pasting in GarageBand ..though I haven't tried that.
[..In iMovie HD 6 the procedure to find the extracted audio files is slightly different, as they're contained in a "package" which you have to right-click (Ctrl-click) to find them. But in iMHD5 it's much simpler..]

Help with importing footage correctly with Sony Camera

I have a Sony HDR SR 11 camera that records in AVCHD codec at 1920 X 1080i HD. When I import the m2ts files into Premiere they will get choppy in the time line and the footage breaks up digitally. No matter what setting I choose it does not import them. Does anyone know if Premire supports this codec? Sony is clueless when it comes to this stuff.
I have to actually render the thing in Sony Vegas Platinum and THEN import it into Premiere if I want it to work that way. Any suggestions?

Hello All,
Sigh, well it's just not working well for me lol
I have rendered this several times. I got one to work, but I want to change my background color. I am trying to alter my size down to 1280x720 without getting any black bars on the video and I cannot render to flash as I need a different file type. Blu ray worked, but I forgot it separates the audio and that is not good to me.
Below is a jpg with the dsitorition around the face and a rendered clip with no sound of the max headroom effect. I rendered with the upper field first so I do not know why I got this error.
I thought this might be easier than you all downloading.

I will try to render again in the mean time. Even reducing the bit rate makes my 8 min video take 3 hours.

2 issues with Importing an App with translations

Hi guys,
I've noticed the following issues in APEX 4.1 and also the 4.2 version on apex.oracle.com :
1) After importing a .sql file that contained the primary and translated application, if we change the ID of the translated application (which is allowed by APEX), the translation no longer takes effect. Even after re-doing a seed and a publish, although the .xliff file appears to be translated, the application is not translated in run time. But the internal APEX labels are (Welcome message, interactive reports, etc.).
Here's a detailed step of what I did:
-Created an application in English
-Mapped it to a French app
-Seed, translation, publish
-Tested the translation with the P_LANG change (translation based on Session) and the translation was in effect.
-Exported the application with the translation
-Deleted the application with its tranlsation
-Imported the application and reused the same ID
-Went in Shared Components > Globalization and changed the translated app's ID
-Seeded, published
-Tested the translation with the P_LANG change and none of the translation manually edited by me took effect.
Perhaps the problem lies in the mapping of the translation data?
2)If an application with the same ID as the translated application contained in your .sql file already exists, when choosing to reuse the ID of the .sql file, that application will be overwritten by the translated application without any warning and will no longer be listed in your applications list.
Please let me know what you guys think of these issues or if they aren't actually issues. Also, if there is a better place to report APEX issues, please let me know.

Finally found what we were missing. When installing multiple instances as in APEX 4, it required a new letter during setip for images. APEX 3.2 used i and APEX 4 was set as j. We needed to go into the application properties of each app that was converted to APEX 4 and change the image prefix to the letter j for Apex 4.

Need to make mono audio tracks stereo

I am sure this is a fairly basic question but I just can't seem to figure it out. Currently I am working on a project that is filmed with 1 actors lav mic on channel 1, and the other actors lav mic on channel 2. When I import this footage into Final Cut actor 1's audio comes out the left channel, and actor 2 out the right. I would like to make it so both mics are coming out of both speakers, so how do I go about that.
thank you.

I believe you're really talking about panning the audio to the center of each.

Problem when importing several (2,3 or 4) video files into one project.

Im creating a project video with several videos running at the same time in one screen. Sort of like a surveillance with different videos but for some reason one of the video file seems to change from 45 seconds to 3 minutes. When all of the video files are 45 seconds but after effects seems to put that video file into 3 minutes. I even deleted the file and imported another video just like it and it works fine until I open the project again. I am using AE CS4.

I hope I did this correct. The first link shows the video length of the videos, this is how it is suppose to be. Then the second link shows the problem in which one of the videos after (after effects) is closed and then opened again. One of the video seems to malfunction and shows that it is longer then 45 seconds. I tried to delete it and open up another one... and then another video seems to malfunction.

Problem with importing a large number of images to Lightroom?

I'm trying to import a large number of images from disk to Lightroom. If I select more that approximately 1500 images (1250 works fine), I get an error message saying "files do not exist". If I reduce the number of files imported, everything works fine. I can import in groups as long as the number selected at any one time is less that the ~1500 limit.
Has any one had a similar problems? I'm running LR 2.4 64-bit on Win7 RC 64-bit, Q6600 processor, 8 GB RAM.
Does not seem like this should be a problem. Its a real hassle to my workflow. I'm working on a series of time-laps movies (here is a link to a sample: http://vimeo.com/6375019).

Thanks for your reply Sean,
It is an internal disk drive, SATA II interface.I have no other disk/file problems, this is unique to LR as far as I can tell.
I'm loading files onto disk from a CF card reader outside of Lightroom, then opening LR and telling it to import from disk. I've never had a problem before with imports. Experimenting with number of files, somewhere between 1250 and 1500 is where the problem occurs.
Been busy making time-lapse videos of the fire in LA, so I'm away from the computer most of the time.
thanks,
Dan Finnerty
