QuickTime echo audio

I am getting echo during new audio and screen recording. I am using soundflower 2ch. This used to work. Can this be fixed or is there some other way to pick up audio. I was surprized when I was told that I needed a 3rd party softwarte in the first place. For one thing, I cannot monitor sound while recording.

Oh, I forgot: the strangest of all is that itunes works perfectly well even though it supposed to rely on quicktime...

Looking for good sound module/card for AE CS4 and AE CS5.5 Echo Audio not working proper

Hi,
I have two different computers, one with AE CS4 and a other one with AE CS 5.5.
On both systems ( Windows 7 64) my Echo audio fire4 sound-module driver is not working proper
and crashing AE. Despite the latest updates from Echo. When I uninstall the driver the problems
are gone!
That's the reason I'm looking for a good stable sound-module (FireWire) to work with Premiere Pro
and AE.
Thanks! David

Where did the media file come from?
Does it use a variable frame rate?
What version of Premiere are you using?

After exporting a video from imovie, to quicktime, the audio has been duplicated. How can I fix this?

after exporting a video from imovie, to quicktime, the audio has been duplicated. How can I fix this?

iMovie works best with uncompressed audio. If your track is MP3 or AAC, you may get better results by converting your track to the AIFF format and then using that in iMovie.
You can do this in iTunes. Go to iTunes/Preferences and click the General button. On the General page, click the Import Settings button. Choose IMPORT USING: AIFF ENCODER.
(note: remember what you changed it from so you can change it back later, before you import another CD)
Now, in iTunes, select your track. Then click FILE/CREATE NEW VERSION/AIFF VERSION.

Audio on the timeline, especially stream, tends to play very reliably. Is this project under any NDA or can you provide a FLA to examine? Let me know if you want to private message it and I'll shoot you a message.
What version of Flash Player are you targeting and is this AS2 or AS3?

Export a Quicktime puts audio out of sync.

Hi
I've just cut some footage capture on my iPhone.
When I export the quicktime the audio is out of sync. When I play the final cut timeline it's fine.
Any suggestions please?

Hi - Do you want the detailed explanation or the quickest solution?
If the quickest solution:
Click anywhere on your timeline.
Type Command + 0 (zero) to bring up your sequence settings.
When it opens change
!http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/SeqSettingH264.jpg!
to this:
!http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/SeqSetting422LT.jpg!
and click OK.
When you have done that a red render bar will appear over your sequence, click anywhere on the timeline and type Command + A and the type Command + R to render it all.
Now export your Quicktime movie.
Hope this helps. If you want the detailed explanation post back.

Strange QuickTime conversion audio problem

QuickTime on my G5 will no longer export Final Cut files properly as H.264 - the video is perfect, but the audio just stops after about 1'30.
This never used to happen. I have tried with FCP container files and with FCP self-contained files, and the problem is the same. It started before the QuickTime upgrade, but even after upgrading, it is still happening.
Yet when I moved the exact same FCP file over to my MacBook Pro, and tried an export with the same settings as I used on the G5, it worked fine.
I can also do this export fine on the G5 with software such as MPEG Streamclip - just not QuickTime.
What on earth could be wrong that QuickTime's audio is failing at 1'30?

I confirmed that it's either a QT 7.2 issue, or OS 10.4.10 issue (guess which I think is more likely :-)).
I moved the iMovie to my wife's macbook, who thankfully usually hits cancel when the software update screen appears so it was still on 7.1.6 and OS 10.4.9. The movie exported fine. Not a great test, since I was changing processor types, iMovie versions, and OS versions, but it did work. Then I upgraded her to 7.2 and 10.4.10 (in retrospect, should have just done 7.2 to only change one thing, oh well), did the exact same export procedure, and the audio was corrupted the exact way that my computer broke it.
So it's in one of those components for sure. I opened a bug, #5345205, for what it's worth. Hopefully they'll be able to replicate somehow and issue a fix. too bad there's no easy way to rollback an update.

HT3775 Why doesn't QuickTime play audio for some avi videos?

Why doesn't QuickTime play audio for some avi videos? Is there a download to help resovle this.
I am running Mountain Lion, I have also installed flipformac, divx, and vlc. They are working fine.
Appreciate your answers.

You can only use QuickTime Player 7 to play that 12 year old format.

When I screen record on quicktime with audio I keep getting echoes?

HI
I'm trying to make videos using QuickTime.So when I talk I get really high pitched echoes. Help?
PS. I also have a Skype so when my friend talks he also come up in the video.

Sounds like a full headset might be the way to go.
You could get a Y-splitter so both you and your friend could listen at the same time, and share a microphone. Either a USB microphone would work, or a regular analog microphone with the iMic USB adapter.
Many ways to skin the cat, but the basic idea is to prevent the speaker output from feeding back into the mic somehow. That's how echos happen.
Hope that helps!

Choppy/stuttering/echoing audio

Video plays fine, but audio is unlistenable. It sounds like it's being chopped up and echoed.
Celeron 2.93 Ghz with 735 mb RAM
Windows 2000pro with SP4
Quicktime Player 7.1.3
Internet Explorer 6.0
Had the same problem with an older version of iTunes, also with Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.8 and 2.0 as the browser.
No audio problems with anything else - Windows Media Player, RealAudio, Macromedia, any non-QT internet audio or audio/video stream
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Perhaps this will help:
iTunes and QuickTime: Audio does not play or plays incorrectly
Hope it does. If not, this thread presents a fix for another potential cause of skipping/stuttering in iTunes for Windows.
Good luck.

MP4 Plays Fine in Quicktime, but Audio Lags Near Clip's End in WMP. Huh?

This is weird. I've made several MP4s in Premiere Pro CS6, some only 10 minutes long, and the audio goes a bit out of sync (lagging behind) only in WMP, not Quicktime, when playing the rendered MP4. QT plays it all just fine. Is there something needing to be set in Premiere or AME to make it all stay sync'ed and play fine in any player?
Quick backstory: I shoot 1920x1080p DSLR video at 24fps (23.97#) and I capture audio separately on a Tascam portable at 24-bit 96kHz (which is think is 29.97) and toss it onto a Pr Pro CS6 timeline. I do use the cruddy camera audio just for syncing then ALT+Click to separate the camera's audio track and delete it, leaving the now-synced good audio in place. Then I toss a few transitions and effects (mostly color grading) on the video, nothing fancy, and export out an .MP4 from Premiere which of course fires up AME. I think the problem is the preset I'm picking. A screenshot of my AME settings is attached. I am using one of the presets for Apple TV/iPad/iPhone which is basically renders the video down to 1280x720p with H.264 compression (no surprise that Quicktime plays it back without issue). I'm assuming a codec comes into play here, or just WMP being stupid? I know what a codec is but I don't Premiere which one to use (I assume you can), so if that's the answer please elaborate a bit when you answer, lol. I'm a seasoned photographer and a fairly green video editor (and a lousy video shooter, lol!).
As a further test, I sent the timeline out to an MP4 again but this time I simply chose H.264 and picked the HD 23.976 1080p preset which does use different VBR, etc. That video plays fine in both, but a 10-minute MP4 is almost 2GB! I was hoping for something in the 100mb-150mb range so I could YouSendIt out to people, and the lousy AppleTV/iPhone 4 720p H.264 preset does give me a filesize in that range.
Any thoughts on what to set to get a workable filesize of <200mb with a 720p clip that actually works in WMP as well as QT? I hope I'm even asking the question correctly.
Thanks!

Harm, I didn't pay attention to those settings, I should have. I got hung up in the preset names and figured those were my only choices. How green I am, lol. I made a preset with a Target of 4 (max 6) and VBR 1 Pass, and I knocked the audio down to 128K being it's just speech, and it all worked great. The new file plays in both players perfectly and also plays on my iPad with no jitter. Filesize is about 240mb but that's fine, it works. Problem solved and in the books. BTW, I use a GTX570.
Jim, I agree, VLC is super, it was the only player that would play 5D Mark II files right out of camera back in 2008, on my dual core Dell laptop with a cheesy Nvidia 7900 graphics card. Problem is, the majority of people I'm sending these MP4s to are Mums & Dads in our church, etc, and you know quite well that those folks are running some consumer Dell or HP setup they bought at Costco on closeout.
Funny backstory, when the 5D2 came out in Sept 2008, that was what thrust me into video. So I immediately bought the Prod Premium CS4 Suite (already owned Photoshop for a few years being a stills guy) and installed it on that Dell 17" laptop I mentioned above. After getting the 5D2 finally in Jan 2009, I actually had the nerve to take my first attempt at creating a video in Premiere and encoding it on that laptop. I literally had to kill AME partway through because I was seconds away from burning out my processor (I had been using RealTemp because of how hot that thing ran using Word, lol). It was that event that made me convince myself to start researching how to build a real editing PC (using an i7 920 at the time). I probably drove Harm nuts back then with all my questions, lol! But this rig has been my workhorse and has been through countless upgrades, the only thing remaining from the original 2009 build is the case and the power supply.
I know, you guys didn't need all that info, just felt like shooting the breeze. Thanks again!

Large .dv file plays fine in Quicktime, but audio out of sync in iMovie??

hi,
i'm trying to convert some old analog 8mm tapes to digital. to do this, i'm using a sony trv320 camcorder with firewire feeding iMovie '08. i've imported an entire 2 hour tape into iMovie, and everything is fine except that at some point, the audio gets out of sync from the picture. i've opened the huge 24 GB .dv file in Quicktime, and everything is in sync, so I assume this is some kind of problem related to iMovie. i've done lots of searching on this and have made sure that the camcorder is sending 16 bit audio out. i also tried using mpeg streamclip to split the huge .dv file into smaller parts, but this resulted in the same audio sync problem (which is weird).
is my only option to manually import my tapes 10 minutes at a time? please say no
the most puzzling thing about this is that the huge .dv file is perfectly in sync all the way through when playing back in Quicktime.
i'm at a loss!! hope someone can help.

I've edited in FCP and exported with compressor with all the appropriate settings, to mpeg 2.
Double check to make sure that you edited in Anamorphic and also encoded as 16:9 video not 4:3 - also make sure you set the Track to 16:9 Letterbox in DVD SP.
What encoding rates did you use for the video and audio? Sometimes if the rates are too high it can cause drifts.
On the audio side, did you export the FCP as self contained and make the audio AC3? Also you can try just exporting the audio as an AIF and encode that as an AC3.
How did you burn the DVD (Speed and Media used?) Sometimes bad burns/media can cause issues.

QuickTime no audio

Hi
Since upgrading to Yosemite sites that I access that use the QuickTime plugin for wav files no longer play back audio.
The player appears and starts playing.. but no sound.
The plugin version is 7.7.3
Tested with Chrome on MAC. Similar issue with the QuickTime Plugin enabled.
If I disable it then Chromes inbuilt player does play the audio.
Anyone know how to fix this ?

I'm also having a similar issue: Audio does not initially play through my MOTU 828 mkII audio interface when choosing Quicktime Player 7.1.3 as the playback device for any sound file, and no sound on any video files. Also had this problem with earlier verisons of Quicktime 7. To have sound play back through the 828 using Quicktime, I must first toggle the output option to "built in audio", and then switch back to the 828 sound output option to get sound through the 828. And unfortuately, I have to do this EVERY time I launch a new sound file. I have never had this problem before. Any ideas? I've already done an archive and install on the MAC, which did not help. I've also updated all my thrid party audio drivers.

QuickTime movie made in QuickTime 7 audio not playing back in qt 10

I made a qt using qt 7 pro, H.264 with the AAC audio compressor and that qt will not play back audio in QuickTime 10 which is what my client has on his computer.

The point being here is that I rendered out a movie in QuickTime pro 7 and the audio isn't being resolved in QuickTime 10, even on my own computer.
Does the audio play correctly in the QT 7 Player? Have you determined if this is a playback or a conversion problem? I asked about the source file since some source compression formats will not convert the audio using QT 7 Pro. In a similar manner, some AAC data rate and sampling rate combinations are not supported on the Mac which is why QT is programmed to disallow their use. (Unfortunately, I do not know what would happen if a source file using such audio settings were to be used as a source for a QT 7 Pro conversion.)
How is this possible and should I just remove qt10 altogether?
As already indicated, there are a number of "normal" problems that could give these results. In addition, QT changes made as part of the most recent Lion OS update seem to have had adverse effects on QT 7 Pro features (as evidenced by the loss of the "loop" playback feature and "green screen" problems on some platforms). As to the removal of QT 10, the embedded structures cannot be removed without corrupting the operating system. And, while the QT X player can be removed/deleted, why bother since you can just as easily opt not to use it for manual playback and restoring it, should you later change your mind, may present a problem.
I am a professional editor, have been working on Macs since 1992 (Avid and FCP7) and have never had a compatibility problem like this before within the Mac environment.
Have you made any recent changes to your normal work flow that might account for this problem and is the problem consistently repeatable?

Issues with embedding QuickTime for audio

Two issues when playing audio files via a web browser (tried with Chrome and IE8):
If I use wmode=transparent the control buttons are not shown, only the progress bar. When I removed wmode=transparent it worked fine. Is this correct behavior?
Some browsers still invoke the embed part instead of the object part. I thought all browsers used object now.
Here's the markup I now generate (in PHP):
$output .= "<object classid=clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B codebase=http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab>";
$output .= "<param name=src value='" . $url . "' />";
$output .= "<param name=autoplay value=false />";
$output .= "<param name=controller value=true />";
$output .= "<param name=bgcolor value=FFFFFF />";
$output .= "<embed src='" . $url . "' autoplay=false controller=true bgcolor=FFFFFF pluginspage=http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/>";
$output .= "</embed>";
$output .= "</object> ";
Cheers,
Anders
