Question audio in Elements 9

How can i adjust the volume in part of a clip in the time line, not the whole of the clip

  • Is there any way of storing audio- / video-elements in the browser cache in Safari in iOS?

    Hi there,
    I'm desperatly trying to find a solution for a web application that has to run on an iOS-Safari (e.g. on iPad, iPad2 and iPhone 4):
    It's a web-application I wrote some time ago which lets the user search for and listen to short music samples (MP3s, all from ~100 kB to ~1.5 MB). The audio player is Flash-based, so it doesn't work on iOS-devices at the moment and I'll have to implement an alternative either in HTML 5 or with a "direct" QuickTime-object.
    Both my HTML 5- and QuickTime-alternatives for iOS-devices work fine so far, but there's one major problem I can't find a solution to:
    Unlike Flash and most HTML 5-capable browsers on Windows Safari on my iPad 2 won't store the audiofiles in the browsercache after loading and playing them - neither with HTML 5 audio-tags nor with a QuickTime-Object. Every time I load an audio file for playback from the server (with JavaScript-Commands, so without changing or reloading the whole page) it's downloaded again completely.
    If a user listens to sample A and then to sample B, Safari forgot about having played sample A and downloads the whole MP3 again if I like to listen to it again. On a mobile device with a potentially narrow bandwith this behaviour is out of the question.
    Is there a way of storing downloaded audiofiles opened by HTML 5 or QuickTime in Safari's cache so it remembers already having downloaded them  -  like it caches usual "web-files" like HTML, CSS or JPEG-images, or like Flash stores such objects in its local cache?
    The Application Cache with a manifest-file is not an option - this only seems to work if the browser is offline, for example if the iOS-device is in "Airplane"-Mode.

    Yes, I watched it. It contains interesting stuff I have to admit I didn't know yet, but unfortunately I still can't find a solution to my problem:
    My first attempt was trying to use the Application Cache with a manifest file - although this is not really the intended purpose for my application... I don't have a static set of files that I want to have cached or "available offline"  -  I just want to cache MP3s which the user has played yet.
    It should be possible to use a "dynamic manifest": One that is parsed by the Apache PHP module and listing the files played so far from a PHP session - something like this:
    <?php
    session_start();
    header("Content-Type: text/cache-manifest, charset=UTF-8");
    echo "CACHE MANIFEST\n";
    foreach($_SESSION['playedSongs'] as $song)
        echo $song."\n";
    ?>
    So whenever a song is loaded / played, I could access the PHP session with AJAX, insert the filename of the played file and manually update the manifest by calling window.applicationCache.update().
    There are two problems with this:
    First of all: It doesn't work. And I didn't even get to the point of trying to use a dynamic manifest:
    <!DOCTYPE html>   
    <html manifest="cache.manifest">
        <head>
            <title>Test</title>
            <script type="text/javascript">
            function playStuff(id)
                if(id == 1)
                    window.document.getElementById("audio").innerHTML = '<audio controls preload="automatic" autobuffer><source src="song01.mp3" type="audio/mp3" /></audio>';
                else if(id == 2)
                    window.document.getElementById("audio").innerHTML = '<audio controls preload="automatic" autobuffer><source src="song02.mp3" type="audio/mp3" /></audio>';
            </script>
        </head>
        <body>
            <div id="audio"></div><br />
            <br />
            <input type="button" value="playStuff(1)" onclick="playStuff(1)" />
            <input type="button" value="playStuff(2)" onclick="playStuff(2)" />
        </body>
    </html>
    The cache.manifest looks like this:
    CACHE MANIFEST
    song01.mp3
    song02.mp3
    and is properly returned from Apache as "text/cache-manifest" by adding
    AddType text/cache-manifest manifest
    to the .htaccess of this directory.
    The Apache-logs clearly show that the Safari (respectively "AppleCoreMedia") doesn't care about the application cache when it comes to audio-files:
    Safari itself seems to acknowledge the manifest and indeed preload the files:

    Every file is downloaded again completely when playing it. So "AppleCoreMedia" (whatever this may be exactly, the QuickTime-plugin that is triggered by the HTML 5 audio-element I suppose?) either doesn't have access to the Application Cache or simply just doesn't realize the files in it. So if I switch my iPad to "Airplane Mode" now, the Safari is unable to access / load / play the files.
    I also tried using a QuickTime-object instead of an HTML 5 audio-tag (as far as I know HTML 5 audio and video in Safari always use QuickTime?) and controlling it with something like:
    document.movie1.SetURL('song02.mp3');
    Nothing changes, it's just like using HTML 5 audio and everything gets downloaded again when loading/playing it.
    And even if this would work there'd still be a problem:
    To properly implement that I would have to load the MP3-file in the Application Cache before playing it. When doing this it seems impossible to show a "real" progress: The ProgressEvent that is fired from the Application Cache after updating it doesn't seem to provide any information about data loaded so far and the complete size of a file. It's just "File 1 from 2" and so on, and not a "real" progress where I could determine something like: "100 kB of 1.2 MB loaded" as I can with the audio-element.
    All the other storage-approaches like Web SQL / Web Database or Local Storage are no help either:
    I don't see any way of getting the MP3 data into Local Storage or Web Database or getting it out again to play it. The HTML 5 Canvas-element has a toDataURL()-function to produce a Base64-encoded representation and use it for storage  -  the Audio-element doesn't seem to have anything like this.
    My last really "dirty" approach was trying to load "manually" Base64-encoded-MP3s with a combination of AJAX and PHP: A PHP-script outputs a Base64-representation of a MP3-file and is loaded by AJAX, so I could store the Base64-representation e.g. as Local Storage or in Web Database:
    <?php
    $infile = 'song01.mp3';
    $contents = file_get_contents($infile);
    $base64 = base64_encode($contents);
    $audio = 'data:audio/mp3;base64,'.$base64.'';
    echo $audio;
    ?>
    I tried using the resulting AJAX responseText as the source-argument in an audio-source-tag. Suprise: It doesn't work in Safari on my iPad 2, the player just fails to load the "file", although this works fine in Chrome on Windows. Possibly a size limitation for Base64-URIs on Safari / iOS.
    And again: Even if this was working in iOS/Safari I don't know of a way to determine a real progress from an AJAX-query...
    The last thing I could think of is not replacing the audio- or source-tags when loading a song but leaving them in the DOM-structure, check if it's already there when a song is loaded and just add a new audio-tag if a song hasn't been loaded yet.
    This solution would be my last resort: I'd have to rewrite nearly the whole application to completely operate on JavaScript / AJAX to stay on one site in the browser - else the "cached" audio data would be lost again when changing to another site in Safari.
    Furthermore I think there'll be a small cache limit somewhere when doing this?
    Any ideas?

  • Basic questions about Premiere Elements 8

    I'm new to this forum and although I use Photoshop Elements extensively, I am just trialling Premiere Elements 8. I have a number of questions from my (very limited) testing so far:
    1. Most of the videos that I download from my Sony DCR-DVD110 DVDs behave fine, but one of them only has half an audio track. The full audio was there on the DVD, but in the project it appears that the second half of the audio has been moved to overlay the first half, instead of following on. The video format is VOB. Has anyone else had this problem, or could suggest how it can be remedied?
    2. I understand from the help that I can split incoming video from a DV camcorder using the timecode on the tape. However, I do not seem to get the same option when downloading from DVD as above. The scene-splitter in the project list only allows content detection (which is unreliable), or regular divisions. Does anyone know if there a timecode on the VOB files, and is there a way of using this to split video into clips that is more reliable than scene detection?
    3. I do not understand the red/green line that appears under the Timeline ruler, just above the video. In one project, I have cleared clips out of the timeline and copied new ones in. The green or red line no longer changes at clip boundaries. Where it is green, the clip audio plays back, but not the video. Where it is red, both play. I do not seem to be able to find out what this means, let alone how to change it, and do not know how I set it in the first place. Does anyone know what this coloured line means, and how to change it so that all of the clips play both audio and video?
    4. When I start the program from the Welcome Screen, it gives me the option of opening an old project. Even though I select the project that I wish to open, this does not happen. Premiere Elements 8 starts, but the project does not load. Is this just a limitation of the trial version, or a common problem? Can I skip the Welcome screen and go straight into Premiere Elements 8?
    I'm looking to buy Premiere Elements 8 along with an upgrade to Photoshop Elements 8, for the compatibility and common file organiser, but so far the above problems are putting me off a purchase. The programme also does not seem to be as intuitive as Studio 7, which was the last video editing software that I used (some years ago, taking data from a DV camcorder).
    Your help and any recommendations that you may be able to add would be most welcome.

    Virtually all of your problems are related to your trying to edit video from a DVD camcorder. Although the program is supposed to be able to work with these video files, they can be very problematic if your computer's operating system is not fully updated, you lack the current version of Quicktime and you do not have the proper codecs installed.
    The red lines you're seeing above your video on the timeline are indications of this. These are indications that your video needs to be rendered by the program in order for the program to work with it.
    If you'd like to try to work with DVD cam video despite these liabilities, there are things you can do to improve performance somewhat.The FAQs to the right of this forum explain how and why.
    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/415317?tstart=0
    But I recommend you convert your VOB files to DV-AVIs before you bring them into Premiere Elements. This will likely remedy nearly all of your problems (assuming your computer's hardware and software are up to the necessary specs and are fully updated).

  • No Video, Just Audio in Elements 9

    All has been fine with my Elements 9, until recently when all the images of my imported clips were been replaced by the dreaded red "Media Offline" screen.  After trying to build a new project to see if the problem persists, it did.  Only instead of getting the red screen, the audio will import but the video will not come over with it.  In the clip preview screen, I even see the audio graphing lines, but no images. 
    Here are my specifics:  Toshiba Satellite P500 Laptop, Win. 7 64-bit, CPUs: Intel(R) Core (TM) 2 Duo P8700 @ 2.53Ghz, 4.00GB RAM, (2 Hitachi internal hard drives: C & E), Nvidia GeForce G210M Graphics.  I've updated the Nvidia driver to 296.10, and am current on all Windows updates, as well as updated Quick Time
    C drive: 3.59GB free of 285GB
    E drive: 110 GB free of 298GB
    Other info: 
    1) I built the original projects on C drive, but moved them to E with seemingly no problem (however I'm curious about this "mapping" topic that I've noticed in reading other answers.  I don't know about that and whether or not C and E are properly connected.)  But as I said, for a few weeks, all work in E seemed fine.  Plus, I've tried pulling media from both C as well as E and still only get audio.
    2) there is no camera involved, just trying to "Get Media" (which in this case is AVI movie clips) from hard drives files.
    3) the only changes I can think of that have been made in the time between things working and not was installation of Roxio Easy CD & DVD Burning software
    You won't offend me if you copy and paste an answer, or give me a link to a previous similar question, as I'm sure I'm not the first who's experienced this issue.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • Edited MPG (mpeg2) Clips lose Audio - Premiere Elements 8

    I have 2 mpg files recorded off a TV.  When I bring them into Elements 8.0 I can play them back and the audio is fine.  However, after I edit them for length the audio disappears.  It looks like somehow when the video is edited for length that the audio track is deleted.  I am editing in Scene mode.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Steve,
    Thanks for the quick reply to my question.  I have a HAVA (like a slingbox) that records directly to hard disk from the cable box.  It creates DVD quality MPGs.  I have previously been using Pinnacle Studio to make my DVDs, but wanted to try Premiere Elements.  When I bring the clips into to Premiere, I can play them just fine.  I normally clip off the first 1-2 minutes of  commercial items and the last several minutes before actually burning the DVD.  This is where the problem comes.  Once I trim the video clip, it no longer has any audio - even though the video is fine.  Just as a test, I fired up my old Pinnacle Studio and brought these 2 mpgs into it.  I was able to easily trim the video clips and burn a DVD - with audio.
    Since I am new to Premiere, I assume it is just something I am doing wrong in the trimming process.  I went through the tutorial online and think I followed it OK.

  • No Audio in Elements 7

    Uploading from a Sony HDR Sr12 camcorder in AVCHD. I have sound in all other programs but not when I need to edit with Adobe Premiere Elements 7.
    My system is a Dell 2.93 quad system with 6gig ram, 512 video ram and 1.28 T hard drives. System uses windows Vista 64. Can anyone give me a clue on how to get the sound to work so I can edit my film clips. Thank you,

    Other than comparing with some bars and tone and checking your settings in Edit > Preferences > Audio Hardware and Audio Mixer, I'm not too sure without more information about your project.
    You might want to post this over in the Premiere Elements forum.

  • Workflow Question: Audio Documentaries

    Hello there,
    I am trying to figure out the most efficient workflow for 2 types of audio pieces that will end up in a podcast:
    1) The first type is one long interview (an hr) that will be extensively edited (e.g., sentences and words rearranged; "ums" deleted, sentences shortened and tightened ) and inserted into a podcast with some narration and sound fx. I'm unsure if I should be marking (so I know what's where) and editing the interview in the waveform or multitrack. In the waveform, marking is easy; I can break the entire clip up into a series of chunks. But then what? Export them all as individual files? OR Export the entire file with the markers into multitrack? The problem with the first solution is that I then have a tons of files that are out of order. The problem with the latter is that any subsequent edits I make in the waveform puts the clips out of sync in the multitrack. Another option is to edit it all in the multitrack, but it seems that there's less ability to use features like zero-crossing and the markers apply to all tracks not individual ones. Suggestions?
    2) The second type of piece is similar to the first, except it involves 10 or more different interviews that are going to be edited into one piece.
    Any tips? Suggestions? Advice? Workflow resources?
    Any and all input is really appreciated.
    Best,
    David

    Steve's speech editing 101:
    Long rambling interviews are a huge problem from this POV - if you did the interview yourself, you generally learn pretty rapidly that actually structuring the interview itself whilst recording it is a pretty good idea! So is the concept of getting the interviewee to include the question in the answer - this generally makes editing a whole lot simpler.
    De-umming and -erring in waveform view is fine - you won't need to redo any of this, whatever you do next. So you can do this, and save the resulting file as a first pass (always keep the original though - you never know...). At this point, as you've realised, you have options. The only thing I can sensibly do is tell you what I do when presented with this sort of thing; it makes sense to me, and you may just about retain your sanity. And yes, the whole thing revolves around markers. The first thing you do is to identify individual chunks of interview, and mark each end of them. What you do then is turn these into a marker range, and most importantly give this a name that means something. There's more than one way to go about this - if it's really complicated then give the ranges numbers, and have a separate reference list. If you think you can put adequate information in the marker, then do this - but bear in mind that when it's all scrunched up, these aren't always so easy to read. The basic idea here is that, if you can manage it, these are like paragraphs - a short collection of related sentences, preferably based around one idea only. You don't want to keep them too long though - I tend to break longer collected sections into separate sub-numbered sequences.
    The most important thing as far as marking is concerned though is to have a structure for it, especially if you have multiple speakers in different interviews. If you keep to a unified scheme, you should easily be able to identify the speaker and the particular point being made easily. And that means that you should be able to assemble a final piece without going completely mad...
    Anyway, what you do then is batch process these marker ranges into separate files, using the marker name for the file name. And now, you can import the whole lot into multitrack view, and start to assemble your interview. At this point it should be fairly straightforward; you can reassemble the clips in any order you want relatively easily, and with a bit of luck, you won't have to do too much editing during assembly - although that option is still open to you.
    So to sum it up, the key to this is organisation and structure. At first it won't seem like you're doing any 'editing' at all - except that really you are - you're doing the most important bit. This is a conceptual thing; editing isn't about cutting out the bad bits, it's about assembling the bits you want. And when you think about it like this, hopefully the foregoing will make some sense. Hopefully it will also be obvious that this scheme works for either single person or multiple person interviews.

  • The question about cost element

    business scenario:
    1,now create a blended activity type rate that includes three costs(water + electricity, etc...). That way, when confirm an activity,  it have all the costs taken care of. However, here three costs will goto a single cost element.
    question: after confirmation, how to translate the cost into original three cost element?
    Please explain me all the steps to be required.
    Thanks in advance!

    Use Costing sheet to book the cost of Water, Electricity etc. to different Cost Elements.
    1. T.code: OPL1, select the costing variant that has been mantained in the T. Code OPUV "CstgVariantPlan".
    2. Go to the valuation variant in control tab of the costing variant.go to the overhead tab and click on the costing sheet.
    3. Inside the costing sheet select the costing sheet and check the base for that costing row. Here you ca see that the cost element range or the Groups are mentioned so any cost that is hitting these cost elements will be used for the calculation of the overhead and that will be calculated and distributed based on the overhead rate and the will be loaded on the credit cost element.

  • Newbie question about Premiere Elements Organizer

    This is a pre-newbie – let’s say “virgin” question. If there is an answer already posted elsewhere, please send me a link.
    I’m about to install Premiere Elements 9 to do some clip editing and animation from still images.  This would be my first attempt to edit clip or do some animation from still images, besides using Windows Media Maker with my HS students. However, I have been a pretty serious photographer for 20+ years with 1,000’s of images which I now work on in PS CS5 Extended and Lightroom 3. I use Adobe Bridge and LR library to catalogue and organize my images. I’d like to continue to use AB / LR Library to organize my new clips and projects. From reading Bill’s posts, it seems I can use Adobe Bridge, copy my original file, resize in Photoshop, and save in a new folder to use for a Premiere project. This would seem to be most intuitive way for me to work. I already have keywords, metadata, actions in PS… etc. But I think Bill is using Premiere Pro, while I’ll be installing Premiere Elements, which comes bundled with Elements Organizer. Do I need to install or use Elements Organizer? What are the advantages/disadvantages or EO?  I guess I’m a little worried about installing the programs and having EO automatically acquire images using presets/defaults that I don’t want to use as well as issues with subfolders, etc. I'm running Windows 7.
    Thanks
    FYI- this is a great animation project

    EO doesn't do much with the files themselves, just maintains links to the sources.
    For folders you are best to use the folder view in EO to move them as it doesn't keep track of folder locations when changed in Windows Explorer. From the File options in Bridge I think that is pretty much the same.

    Any insights would be appreciated.
    Can anyone who has used both EO and AB comment on how EO handles missing (hidden) files, syncing issues, computer hanging up or crashing....etc?
    I've only messed around a little with Bridge. But to me it seems lightening fast by comparison to EO. The features Albums and Tags in EO seem much the same as Collections and Keywords in Bridge.
    EO has Face Recognition abilities - getting more sophisticated in each version. I've not seen this feature in Bridge.
    By default EO allows you to open a file in any of:
    Photoshop
    Photoshop Elements
    Premiere Elements
    A single used-defined application (I have mine set to ColorPilot).
    Bridge only seems to link to Photoshop.
    Missing files can be located manually or by allowing EO to search for them.
    Cheers,

  • Multiclip multi questions (audio question and syncing question)

    I have two questions concerning multiclip editing:
    1. How do you select the audio from one angle to remain the audio throughout as opposed to the audio track changing every time you select a different video source?
    2. If one camera in a three camera set-up stops recording for a technical issue and then goes back up, is there a way to sync both of those files to one angle of a multiclip? If not, is there a way to make them separate angles and sync via input on three angles and on output for the fourth angle?
    Thanks in advance.

    1. In the Viewer's Playhead Sync Menu (upper center), select "Video"
    instead of "Video + Audio".
    2. Sorry, neither of your ideas will work. Multiclips work with actual media
    clips, so two clips will be two angles; and the sync method (in, out, timecode)
    is the same for all clips.
    I suggest you assemble the two files from the camera in a sequence (using
    identical settings as the clips), sync them up exactly (with a little space
    between them), and export them using the same settings to make a new clip,
    which you can then import and use for your multiclip.
    Have fun!

  • Pre-Order Question - Audio

    Since it might be soon I can pre-order for Canada I have a question some of you current owners might be able to answer. I want to use my iPad to take in our RV with us, to watch Movies and Tv Shows from our iTunes while we are on the road. I am assuming that with each synch it will keep track of what episodes have been watched, like my Apple TV's do? But more important is the audio for TV shows or Movies. While running on battery and with nothing to plug an iPad in to, how is the audio quality on the speaker for two people to watch a TV show with? Would it be possible to plug two sets of headphones into it? Is there a headphone jack? Any answers are appreciated - thanks in advance!
    Brian.

    how is the audio quality on the speaker for two people to watch a TV show with?
    As you'd expect from a very thin device with very small speakers, the sound is not going to be great. It's adequate in my limited experience, but whether it would be loud enough in an RV for two people I'm not sure yet.
    Would it be possible to plug two sets of headphones into it? Is there a headphone jack?
    There is a headphone jack, and it might be possible to use two sets of headphone with an appropriate splitter (check places like Radio Shack). Perhaps, though, you could use a set of battery-powered speakers. That might be more satisfactory.
    Regards.

  • I have 3 questions,Audio/Video Remote Control HID driver windows 8 fails to install code 32, trying to use usb tether connection rather then using WiFi to connect Laptop and iPhone. can only connect using wifi. Last quest. about the hotspot bar.

    In device manager it shows an error code 32' using iPhone 5 related to Apple Tv I believe is when this started, I am thinking I can DL the file and install
    biut I am not sure how to properly do this.
    Also I use my LTE to tether (paid) to my LapTop as well, The issue I am having, I cannot get the USB to work as a network connection. However using the WiFi method works fine but I rather use the sync cable at times such as when I am charging the phone and/or wishing to not  trainsmit my ssid for others to see even though I do use a password.
    Last question about using the built in WyFi tether connection, Is it posable to remove or ake the annoying blue indicater bar at the top disappear? This blocks from doing certain tasks that forces me to shut off the HotSpot app. to allow me to pull down the info bar at the top, Please Help Thanks

  • Question about Photoshop Elements 11, Windows 8, and new Dell Computer

    Since I bought a new Dell Inspirion 660 computer, running Windows 8, my Photoshop Elements 11 occassionally gives me an error message saying I cannot save the file because I do not have enough RAM.  I have 8GB of RAM.  I never had this problem on my Old Dell Windows XP computer.  Any suggestions?

    Try reinstalling the application and see if this works.

  • A few questions - audio quality, and remote capability

    1) What is the audio quality of songs streamed from airplay?
    2) Is there any way to change the volume of a song using the iphone/ipad remote?
    Thanks!

    Hello..
    Not sure about the actual specs of Airplay SQ.
    Using the ATV2 to access your iTunes Library you must control the volume with the volume control of the device through which you have the audio routed.. ie TV or Stereo. There is no volume level on the ATV2 remote or in the interface of the ATV OS that I can see.
    Using the ATV2 as a speaker for iTunes from your Mac or PC you can control the volume through iTunes on the Mac or PC.
    Using the Remote App on iPhone 4 or other device you can control iTunes on your Mac or PC. In addition you can select the ATV2 as a speaker for iTunes directly from the Remote App and in turn have control of the volume from the iPhone 4.
    I like the last way best. Easier to navigate library, make selections and control volume all from anywhere within range of your wifi connection.
