QuickTime 7 Audio Issue (Won't play audio in certain video clips)

I'm having a problem getting audio to play with clips in QuickTime 7, and it doesn't play at all in iDVD when I drag a clip in to burn a DVD. I'm also having problems getting Final Cut Pro to play audio from time to time. Is this being caused by a recent Apple security update or is there something else going on?

Quicktime Kirk,
I have downloaded another persons inquiry because it is exactly the problem I am having. Here is his post
"I make movies of cells and convert them to quick time and insert them into powerpoint for presentations for conferences. I never had a problem with this until I upgraded to office 2004 and now many (but not all) of my movies won't play. They seem to be there but when I click play they go white as though there is only the first image. I had saved them as cinepak and or jpeg A usually with image J or older ones from the original NIH image and I can't figure out what the problem is. I even upgraded to quicktime pro to resave them as self contained but still they don't work when I insert them. I can play them all with quicktime player and when I make new ones now in image j I save them as video and that seems to work but it would be very difficult to go back and do that with everything. Does anyone know why or how to fix this?"
My additional comments would be I used the Sample_iTunes.mov from QT and it plays like a champ in PPT. My movies are all from 2004. When I save them in the QT 7.1.3 it doesn't seem to make any difference. The older movies insert into PPT as a QT icon with 4 color quadriant. Everything including .swf are now working in QT. Thanks for your help. When I go back to 7.0.3 they work but then I can't play my videos in iTunes unless I do an erase and a reinstall to get rid of the updated iTunes. Thanks
Chris

Audio won't play after replacing the video clip with after effects composition?

I am using CS5. Still new to this stuff so let me know if you need extra info. None of the faq guides have been helpful.

The audio is still in the project, but won't play in the canvas... this was solved by Richardttt... see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1491870&tstart=0
I tried this and it works but still don't know why it happened: Under Object Menu, select Unsolo>Video Only.

Quicktime 7.6.4 won't play h264 encoded videos on my 10.4.11 MacMini

Hello:
This is my first post. I read through the forums and this seems to be the correct place to pose my question. If it's not, my apologizes.
I'm trying to find out why Quicktime 7.6.4 won't play h264-encoded video on my MacMini (G4 PPC). I'm running 10.4.11. I recently installed Perian 1.2.1 and it got some .avi files to play correctly, whereas before there was no sound. But the h264 files still get me a black screen, albeit with sound now. Some h264 files can be played in VLC Media Player (but that's a horrible player compared to Quicktime in my opinion, as it constantly drops frames and eats 100% of my processor time), but VLC even has the black screen problem on some h264 files as well.
I've also tried MPlayer OSX but that's really an alpha-type development and has a lot of bugs. Many movies it can't even open.
Sorry for the rambling, but again my question: Is there any way to play h264-encoded video in Quicktime 7.6.4 on my Mac?
Thanks in advance for your expertise and advice.

Mr Ram,
There is a group of Quicktime specialists in Apple.com ⇒ Support ⇒ Discussions ⇒ Quicktime .
The more data you give us, the easier it is to help us help you to diagnose your problem. Your disk space would be very useful. Contrary to some, I advocate iDefrag to assist VLC and MPlayer, which you were a little hard on.
GNU/Linux's free offerings
MPlayer was developed a decade ago, and I prefer it for viewing DVDs (for 'DVD Player') seems too dark. VLC (legally) copies many CRM-protected DVDs of yours, so you can play only the burned copy. When I'm having a problem playing a DVD, the VLC log tells me all: only perfect DVDs play well on VLC.
There are two ways of viewing everything.
Streaming MPEG-4
+H.264/MPEG-4 AVC+ is a fancy codec based upon MPEG-4: it requires a powerful processor to de-compress it. I watched an MPEG-4 movie from a G3 iBook in 2005. It played flawlessly.
Your Problem
Quicktime 7.X applications can not play +H.264/MPEG-4 AVC+ streams. It was a bug Apple never fixed. Frames are dropped because H.264 is so slow that it requires special hardware. You, I'm sad to say, don't have it.
To quote the Wikipedia on Quicktime: 'QuickTime 7 lacks support for H.264's Sample Aspect Ratio .[67] QuickTime X does not have this limitation; many Apple products (such as iTunes and Apple TV) still use the older QuickTime 7 engine.'
My Quicktime Pro on a PPC PowerBook is 7.6.4. You can either use a Linux transplant or upgrade to Quicktime X. Those more familiar with Macs may have better ideas for you.
My best,
Bruce

Replace audio in multiple video clips at one time

Hello. I am new to the forum so I apologize if I break any of the rules!
I have a collection of tutorial videos, all edited but the audio had some balance issues. The files were not in Premiere Pro at the time. They are the final edited videos but then I was told the audio needed to be adjusted.
I have re-balanced the audio, saved the audio as wav files and now I need to replace the old audio (in the finished video file) with the new audio (the wav files I edited and saved). The timing is all the same. It's just a matter of replacing the current file.
Is this doable as a batch process? Is it doable in Premiere Pro or do I need to use Audition or some other Adobe software?
I hope this makes sense.
Thank you in advance!

How do I mute the audio of a video clip in PS 6

I have video clips on several layers in the timeline and want to mute the audio of specific video clips - they are on video lines, not the audio line

an interesting development as I proceed with the video. I guess I'm missing an integral concept here. It appears that some of my cideo clips import into the project and the segments have a blue color. These offer an option to fade in or out the audio, to mute the audio or adjust the volume.
Other vidoe clips import purple, like the still image files, and hence these do not offer any audio options, just motion objects.
So, what am I doing wrong? Why do some video clips import (purple) as image files?

Trying to combine audio from a video clip with a photo

Is there a way to allow the audio of a video clip to continue, while the visual is changed? I'm trying to insert a photo to replace the last few seconds of a video as the song in the video finishes.

Not at the moment. Hopefully at some point they will add a feature to independently trim the audio and video to allow this type of edit, otherwise known as an L cut.

On iMovie how can you mute a section of the sound track so you can hear the audio from the video clip?

.

Hey,
If you double-click on the soundtrack you can open it up in the inspector tab and lower the soundtrack so that you can hear the audio from the video clip.
A great resource for finding answers to questions like this is http://www.imovietutorialhelp.com
You can ask questions just like these and they will be answered for you. If you need a tutorial video made or anything like that, you can go there as well and ask for a video to made as well. Check it out.
If you still have questions on how to do this, they can help you for sure.

How to extract audio from a video clip

I am editting a video, and I need to extract the audio from a video clip. On the old iMovie it was really easy, all you had to do was press apple K I think. Thanks in advanced for your help.

Select the clip in the sequence.
Then command-L to unlink the clips.
Then select the audio and delete.
As a suggestion, two things:
1. Explain what you want to do. If it is delete the audio, then that is different than extracting the audio;
2. Do a search in the pdf manual in the help manual

Nur den Audio-Teil eines Video-Clips noch einmal verwenden

Möchte den Audio-Teil eines Video-Clips noch einmal verwenden und diesem Audio-Teil dann ein Standbild zufügen. Wer kann mir hier helfen?

Gerhard Becker
What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
In the absence of that information, I will generalize.
1. You right click a copy of the Timeline file with the video and audio linked and then select Delete Video from the pop up.
2. Then you drag your Still Image to the Timeline and align it with your audio file.
You can leave that still audio positioning as is or "Group" the two so that they move together (if you want to move them together).
For that, select/highlight the still and audio portions (hold down Shift and click video portion and then audio portion), right click in the selection, and select Clip Menu/Group from the pop up.
Please let us know if that generalized answer works for you. If not, more details please.

TS1717 iTunes stops and shuts down when I try to play a purchased music video clip, any ideas on how to fix.

Has anybody had this and know a fix?
I try to play a purchased music video clip and iTunes shuts down or windows 7 shuts it down as an unexpected error.
This only started when I updated to 10.7.

Still no go.

Audio won't play on top of video

I have shot a simple interview style video and edited it in FCP. I created a simple acoustic guitar loop to play in the background using Garage Band and made it into an .aif format.
I've dropped the file into FCP, but for some reason the audio won't come out for the loop. I still have audio from the video, but the loop doesn't come through. When I watch the audio meter as the video is playing, I can see it responding during silence as if the loop actually is actually playing, but it's not coming out. (I've even listened with headphones to ensure this.) I have turned off the audio from the movie, played the video, and I still SEE the audio for the loop playing, but it isn't coming out of the speakers. I've tried renduring, and still the loop doesn't come through. I have ensured that my Audio rate from my file matches the audio rate from my sequence presets. I've tried changing my audio outputs from all stereo to all mono, to 2 stereo and 2 mono, and I still can't get the audio to for my loop.
Could someone help me out with this?

I know, it's shocking that no one has responded to this.
Anyway, No, I haven't created a new project, but it wouldn't matter because it would have the same settings as my original project. It's interesting to note that only the top two audio tracks will come through, and it's like anything below that will just simply not come out, even though the audio meter still registers the sound from the loop. (I've muted the sound from my video to ensure that it wasn't just background or room noise I was picking up.)
The track I created doesn't show a need to render, but you are correct in that I already checked this. I did, however, take another look at all of my audio clips and the sound of my video is apparently in a mono format as well as my sound loop. (Not sure HOW those became mono, but nothing a simple remixing won't fix.) Anyway, seeing that all of my sound files were mono, I went into my settings and changed all of my audio outputs to mono. So I even have 8 -That's right, count 'em... 8 - mono channels for sound and the loop STILL wouldn't come through.
I swear, sometimes this program makes me want to cus.

MP4 VIDEOS OPENS IN QUICKTIME WITH AUDIO BUT NO VIDEO?

I have downloaded may video clips from youtube with tubesock and they worked fine in quicktime pro and I was able to place them on Iweb, now they only play audio no video. What do you think happened.
I can play them with my VLC player and they are fine.
PLEASE HELP
Michael

Tubesock had a bug in their software which was allowing it to create invalid MPEG-4 files. The latest version of QuickTime will no longer play these invalid files, so if you just recently upgraded, that's your problem.
The fix is easy, though. The developers of iSquint have released a Debreaker application that you get for free with the download of the free iSqint (it's all free is what I'm saying Download that app and use the Debreaker to fix your files, and you should be set.

Quicktime won't play muxed mpeg-2 video

I have 2 problems here. I originally tried to play several muxed mpeg-2 videos from a hockey program that keeps track of plays, goals, hits, etc. There is no video and the audio cuts in and out. So next they made a DVD for me using those same video clips. The DVD plays fine in my mac, but when I tried to rip the video using "mpeg streamclip" the same thing happened, no video and bad audio. I downloaded Perian just in case and still no luck. Anyone have any advice? Thanks.

No, Quicktime does not natively play muxed formats.
For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/mpegstreamclip.html
which is free, as well as the the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
which is a mere $20.

Quicktime 7.1.3 won't play .mov or .swf inserted in powerpoint

I have been using Quicktime in ppt for sometime and it always played video loops fine. I upgraded to 7.1.3 and I have all kinds of problems. I have gone under the Quicktime preferences and MIME files and activated video and miscellanous types. Once I close the window though it reverts back to default and I can no longer open mov or swf. Is there a way to save these changes? Secondly when I insert a movie into ppt now it does not work. If I just open the file using Quicktime it works but not when embedded in ppt. I have reinstalled Quicktime 7.0.4 and the movies work fine. The other problem I have is that I upgraded to iTunes 7 and it requires 7.1.3 so when I remove 7.1.3 I can't use any of the video features of iTunes. Does anybody have any work arounds. Very, Very frustrated In South Dakota
