Recovering extracted audio

I posted this under another topic, so I apologize for reposting, but I'm really curious if someone has the answer to this question.
I performed the extract audio on a project that was created using iMovie HD 05. I upgraded to iMovie HD 06. The extraction was performed on iMovie HD 06. Now the audio is completely garbled. There was no undo in the edit menu when I finished.
Is there any way to recover the extracted audio? Or do I have to start from scratch.
Thanks in advance.
Russell

Russell,
When you use the Extract Audio command, the audio is copied from the original video clip and placed in one of the separate audio tracks.
The volume level of the audio in the original clip is then set to zero.
So in your case what I would try is deleting the garbeled extracted audio and then select the original video and type 100% to replace the 0% in the clip volume box at the bottom of the iMovie window (or click on the little speaker icon and slide the volume slider back up to the 100% mark).
You can then use the Extract Audio command again.
Post back if this doesn't work.

How to split video and extracted audio clip at same time?

I imported 10 min of DV from my Sony HC96 camcorder to iMovie 6.
I selected a video clip and split it using cmd-T but the extracted audio clip below it did not split. How can I split both the video and underlying audio clip so I can drag the edge of the new video clip for editing by direct trimming and keep the audio dialogue in sync. I have already gotten the clip volume levels right in the extracted audio.
This seems pretty basic editing but I must be missing something.
thanks, ralph

Thanks, Sue. Let me see that I have this right. I split the video then the audio. I then selected and trimmed the video to the remove the 10-15 seconds I wanted to remove. To keep the dialogue in sync with the speaker's lips, I then selected and trimmed the audio to the same time as I trimmed the video. Then I dragged the audio clip back up to the new start of the trimmed video clip. I did this and the dialogue and lips seem to be in sync.
I guess originally I had looked for a solution where I cut both clips at the same time and trimming one trimmed the other. But now I see I just need to do them separately. Thanks for the help, Sue!

Hi Ralph:
You can't do both at the same time, but you can do
them one right after the other. Highlight the audio
and split it after you split the video and be sure to
keep the playhead in the same position.

Extract audio from a DVD how to

Is there a FREE and ease way to extract audio from a DVD?
Thank you

Set a tape recorder next to your speaker? Seriously, though - what kind of DVD? If it's a commercial DVD, it's copyright protected and people here shouldn't give you advice on how to do it. There are other places besides Apple's discussion forums to get that kind of info, and I don't see why this question belongs in "Using Mac OSX Leopard" in the first place.

Extract Audio From a DVD

Is there a way to extract audio, such as a song, from a dvd and turn it into an mp3 file for recording on a CD?
Thank you for your help.

two options:
converter tool Mpeg Streamclip allows a direct export to mp3 (mp2 playback component needed, 20$)
or
connect a DVDplayer's audio-out via a cable to your Mac's audio-in, launch Garageband/Audacity/.. and record the audio..

Extract audio from dvd

I am trying to extract audio from a DVD I have previously made, when I open it there is nothing in the Audio_TS file. I have seen the previous post about video files. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=596051&tstart=15
I would imagine that it would work the same way. I tried streamclip but it says I am missing a the mpeg-2 component. I did not think I needed this for a non-comercial DVD,
I would like a simple way to use a sound clip off a dvd if that is possible. thanks

follow Daniel's excellent suggestion (hardware solution).
to get just the audio (parts of) from a DVD is no trivial task…
the mpeg2 playback component is needed, because that is the codec in use on any videoDVD
the AUDIO_TS is allways empty on a videoDVD, it is only in use for SuperAudioDVDs.. (rare HiFi format)
the audio of a dvd is well hidden, "woven", muxxded (=tech term) into a data stream… tools as mentioned bbdemuxx demux that stream, in a second step you have to convert the file into something... usefull....
get a few cables, as Daniel said...
Plan C)
invest in tools as Ambrosia's Wiretap which records any sound, your Mac produces... you playback the DVD on your Mac, and you record simultanously the sound... needs additional $$ software and the same amount of time as Daniel's suggestion…

Extracting audio from many clips at a time

I have to extract some audio from many many video clips, so I was attempting to do it in one step, but Logic extract only from one clip at a time
So I'm thinking to use Audio Converter (it can extract audio from many clips in one step), but it ask me the AIFF encoding Bitrate (among 64 and 192 kbps). So I'm wondering... but Logic which AIFF bitrate manages???
Tnks

yes, it is possible. Infact, it is the normal practice to add those 10 roles to that single user in SU01 direclty.
and as I said, user comparison should be scheduled normally in SAP system landscape to do the things automatically, however not immediately but after some time.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/52/6714a9439b11d1896f0000e8322d00/content.htm
If you want user comparison immediately, then you need to do it manually in the role.

Extract Audio Problems

I am having a frustrating problem with iMovie. I am trying to make a video with sound playing over still images, bu every time i try to extract audio from the video i have, it will not work. It loads, taking 7-12 minutes, and then when i substitute the video clip for the photo, the sound does not show up. Why is this happening? The video footage, by the way, was shot with the built in iSight.

I'm not quite certain, from your description, of exactly what you're trying to do..
If you want to insert still photos in place of some of your video, first do what Bengt suggests, in order to extract all the audio from your video, which will put the audio in the Audio Track underneath the video.
Then, if you want to insert a photo which is in your 'Clips Pane' within the "media" section on the right-hand side, do the following:
(a) Choose the photo from your Library, and you can choose whether to tick the 'Ken Burns' box or not (..ticking it will apply a "zoom" effect to your photo..) then click the 'Apply' button. That generally adds your photo to the end of your movie.
(b) With the photo still Selected (..i.e; it has a blue highlight over it..) hold down the Apple key and press 'C' to Copy the photo.
(c) Position your Playhead where you want the photo to be inserted, and on the top-line menu choose 'Advanced' and 'Paste Over at Playhead' ..or just hold down the Shift and Apple keys and jab 'V' to Insert.
The photo will now be inserted to replace the same duration of the original material in your video track, and the original, extracted, audio will be preserved.
If - on the other hand - you're trying to insert some video to replace a photo, just do the same steps, but Copy, position the Playhead, and then 'Paste Over' the video clip to replace the previous photo.
Using those steps, the amount of original material which is cut out, to be replaced by the new material, is automatically calculated by iMovie, and you don't have to worry about making sure that you've chopped out exactly the right amount to match whatever you're replacing it with.
The audio, benath in the Audio Track, should be entirely unaffected.
NOTE, though ..that if you then apply any transitions [except 'Overlap'] between the original material and the newly-inserted shots - this applies to adding transitions in any circumstances - then the entire video track will be shortened by the same duration as the duration of the transition(s), so if you're trying to keep the picture synchronised to the audio, then, er, sorry, but it'll drift out of sync!

Extracting Audio From Copy-Protected DVD

I am doing the audio mastering of a feature film I've made. I'm wanting to extract the audio of a DVD I purchased so that I can see the wave form, study the audio dynamics, and see if I can attempt to match some of the eq characteristics toward my own film.
Does anyone know how to be able to, again, directly extract the audio from DVD material for this purpose? I not only have Logic Pro 7, but I also have Final Cut Studio and all the apps that come with it. I also have Peak 4, Toast 6, and Waveburner. Can I use any of these apps (if not Logic itself) to accomplish this taks? And if so . . . how?
Thank you very much in advance for all the responses,
Javier Calderon

HI there!
Right, the way i understand it, you need to get the macro (protection) off the DVD...well, there are ways to do that. I guess the best for you is a software that automatically converts VOB into Avi or Mpeg (both of which will have the sound embedded). Then you can convert such file into Quicktime Pro as .mov (or just use them as such in Final Cut and extract audio form video...)
The only mac soft i know that does that is Handbrake, and it's a free soft, so you shouldn't have trouble finding it. Still, you may still have to bypass the macro, as I'm not sure Handbrake will let you convert a protected disc. There is another software that will delete data protection and zone info and create a folder containing the VOB. MacTheRipper is only for "backing up" purpose, and should not be used to rip DVDs, but since it's your own material, it's fine for you to use it.
Still overall, this will be a lengthy procedure, seeing as you have to rip/copy/convert/extract.
Have you considered playing your DVD off a DVD player and recording the sound straight into the computer in real time?

Adding transitions after extracting audio

hello, does anyone know if you can add transitions or even certain transitions after you have extracted audio without affecting the synch of audio and video. in my case i needed to extract the whole audio portion, add clips, and now am trying to add some smooth transitions. thanks.

Hi drjsv - no-one seemed game to offer a comment, and I have not got a segment of video to test in this way, and nor have I ever needed that fine degree of synchro. But you can trial it and then if it is not satisfactory, just undo the transition. Maybe you have done that already! I'd be interested to know the result.

How can I import "extracted audio" clips from iMovie project into iTunes?

I imported my home video into iMovie HD 6.0.1 and extracted the audio. How can I get the extracted audio clip (aiff format) into my iTunes playlist?

Genny,
I just tried to answer your question over in the iMovie forum. Have a look over there.

How to make Audition automatically make separate "extracted audio" for each reference of a clip.

Hi,
I recently made the switch over to CC. When exporting a sequence from Premiere Pro to Audition in CS6, each clip in my timeling that was referencing the same source audio was assigned it's own "extracted audio." (i.e. - Lapel Extracted 1, Lapel Extracted 2, etc.).
However, in CC when I bring it into Audition, all of my clips are only referencing the "original" extracted audio. I cannot find in my preferences how to change this. Am I making sence?
How can I switch this?
Thanks!
Steve

I created in iMovie, and extracted audio from one of the clips to use in the title sequence. All is well, export to iDVD and it plays OK, but when I burn the DVD the audio for the titles does not play. Any suggestions?
