RED footage with audio won´t import to timeline anymore?!

Hello,
I cannon import any RED footage to the timeline anymore. I can import it with media browser, view it in viewer and make a new comp with it but there is no way to get a clip from the viewer to the timeline. It works fine with RED footage that has no audio.
I am running 8.2 and this worked fine a week ago...
Any info?
Thanks

So it gets more confusing ...
I cleared all the .xmp files from a folder, and drag and dropped straight from explorer to the timeline, it all imported !
So i start do this for a few different folders, seems to be working...
I then say , well hey ill go back to media browser and try to reimport and organise my file structure the way i like.. all of the sudden it reverts back to audio only, even from win explorer, then i grab 4 clips at once ... it imports them ?
So, i go back to media my project window, grab 3 files, and it now drops them on the timeline.
I won't play like I'm understanding the logic here, one would think spanning clips or somthing but it seems much more random
Though, if in the future anyone has this problem, try draggin more than 1 clip at a time in and see if that gets you going.
ADOBE : Can you please shed some light on this, although i have figured a strange work around, this means i cannot use the source window like a usual workflow and i must actually import everything to the timeline then cut and scrap the rest.

Encore CS3 - Hangs and import problems with menus and avi footage with audio tracks present.

I'm trying to import some footage files in .avi format into Encore CS3 and am having several problems.
In what follows when I say "crash" I mean Encore quits with a standard Windows error. When I say "hang" I mean Encore does not quit but rather becomes an unresponsive process that must be killed manually using Windows Task Manager.
My System:
WinXP Pro SP2
2.93 GHz Intel Celeron CPU - single core
Intel PERL mobo
3GB 400MHz RAM
NVidia 7800GS video
I mention these specs however I am not experiencing any hardware
related bugs or issues (like out of memory or video driver crashes
etc) when using any CS3 app.
The footage files (as reported by GSpot) and problems I am seeing. In all cases GSpot reports that I have the appropriate codec installed:
footage1.avi - Dx50 XVid 1.0.3, Dolby AC3 48kHz 192kb/s, 716834 KB
Attempting to import as timeline causes Encore CS3 to hang.
Importing as an Asset allows it to import but when I try to click
on it in the project windown to add it to a new empty timeline,
Encore hangs. It plays fine in Windows Media Player.
footage2.avi - Dx50 XVid 1.0.3, MPEG-1 Layer 3 48kHz 128kb/s, 718302 KB
Imports fine as either a timeline or asset but no audio track comes
with it, even though there is an audio track in the footage. It plays
fine in Windows Media Player. Video imports perfectly, just no audio.
footage3.avi - Dx50 XVid 1.0.3, MPEG1-Layer3 48kHz 112kb/s, 717606 KB
Imports fine as either a timeline or asset but no audio track comes
with it, even though there is an audio track in the footage. It plays
fine in Windows Media Player. Video imports perfectly, just no
audio. I tried converting this one using AVS to both MPEG3 and DivX,
each using MPEG1-Layer3 44kHz 192kb/s audio, and got the same issue
upon importing into Encore CS3. I also loaded it into Camtasia
Studio and it looked fine over there. The audio was present and I
was able to export it as a .WAV file. When I tried looking at the
file in Soundbooth CS3, there was no audio track or, more
accurately, the audio track was a flat line.
By way of comparison these are importing perfectly:

Although this one imported & transcoded correctly, when I went to
build it to a DVD image file I got some strange errors during the
"planning video" stage that prevented the process from completing.
Unfortunately I neglected to write down the error message I recieved
which read like quite nonsensical babble to me, and I have since
deleted the project folder. I remember it was not a memory or
display related error and it included a timestamp where the error
was happening. I played the footage in the preview panel thru the
identified timestamp but it previewed perfectly without even a
jitter in either the video or audio. Took forever to transcode so I
doubt I'll be doing this one again anytime soon.
Another issue I am having is with the motion menus. I burned a DVD and it does not load correctly in one of my DVD players (a Sony rdr-gx330 recorder/player). It appears to take extra time to recognize the disk, the startup (first-play) menu does not show automatically, and I must press the Main Menu button on the

Another issue I am having is with the motion menus. I burned a DVD and it does not load correctly in one of my DVD players (a Sony rdr-gx330 recorder/player). It appears to take extra time to recognize the disk, the startup (first-play) menu does not show automatically, and I must press the Main Menu button on the remote control to make it appear. Other than that it seems to play ok in that player. Also tested it in 2 other DVD players (a Panasonic and Zenith) and it worked just fine like it's supposed to in them. Also plays perfectly in my computer's DVD player/burner using Windows Media Player v10. I tried burning to Memorex +RW single-layer single-sided disks at 6, 7, & 8Mbps project settings but got the exact same result every time.
Encore CS3 crashes fairly often during authoring, particularly during imports, and when I go to edit things like calling up a timeline in the timeline panel, dragging footage into an existing timeline, or changing button links in a menu etc.. I have also experienced seemingly random hangs even more often, probably 5 or 6 times as often as a crash. Saving the project after every little change I make, then closing and restarting Encore allows me to make progress albeit at a significantly reduced workflow rate. Accessing Photoshop from Encore appears to be working flawlessly so far aside from the slow load times. Encore hangs sometimes during video transcoding, repeat the process and it works ok. If I try to import a menu from the library after importing my footage files, Encore hangs trying to import it either at the 50% mark or the 99% mark (it varies even with the same exact menu selected from the library). If I import the menu first and the footage after, then no problems. Also trying to render motion menus after importing footage causes Encore to hang, render before footage import and everything works ok. Interestingly enough, previewing my project in Encore's monitor or preview panels works perfectly even in High quality mode -- in fact it operates quite smoothly in comparison to other apps I have tried. Although those footage files that had missing audio tracks on import obviously played silently, I have yet to experience a hang or crash during a preview or when scrubbing through a timeline in the monitor panel.
The last problem I've seen is with the project cache files. It doesn't always get rid of cache files when stuff is deleted from the project. I was working on one project and surprisingly ran out of disk space. When I tracked it down I found that there were some two dozen copies of a footage file I had repeatedly imported and deleted from the project still sitting in the cache folder. The file was an avi about 2GB so it was taking up some 40 GB of disk space for stuff that was no longer in the project. I tried shutting down Encore and manually deleting all the cache files, and that worked for most of them, but there was one 2GB file that kept reappearing in the cache folder even though it was no longer in the project. The XML file in the cache folder still had references to it in there so I can only assume that was the reason it kept showing up. I eventually had to delete and totally recreate the project from scratch to regain my lost disk space. This included having to sit thru a 6 hour long transcoding session which pissed me off to no end.
Encore CS3 appears on the surface to be a very powerful, feature rich, and approachable app with a simple easy to use interface, but it is awfully bugged in just about every area I have explored and still needs lots and lots of work for it to be really useful. Frankly for me it is pretty damn annoying that I have invested so much money in this suite only to find several of the apps in it (Encore & Premiere in particular) behaving this poorly. In my opinion every single app in the suite exhibits lousy performance whenever you must do anything at all involving the disk from the time you click to start it up until the time you click to close it down. Several of them are just as seriously bugged as Encore too, and being a long time Photoshop v5.5 user I expected much more from Adobe. Even Photoshop is two or three times as slow now (e.g. it takes about 20-30 seconds to simply create an empty 500x500 pixel image file and almost a full minute to load a 30x60 pixel single-layer gif). So far I have attempted to create 6 DVDs using Encore and after 3 weeks of effort have only succeeded in getting one of them onto a final disk -- and that one is kinda limping to work correctly in my DVD player. Three of those projects became so corrupted while working on them that I had to delete them completely and recreate them from scratch, only to find that I still couldn't get them to completion for one reason or another. Seriously disappointing.

Trial period only gives the standard importing format. How can i import Red footage?

You can't. It's a licensing limitation.

TS2289 Audio won't import with video in iMovie 11

My iMovie 11 (9.0.4) is all of the sudden malfunctioning - it's not importing the audio with the video. I've even tried importing clips that just a few days ago imported perfectly with the audio... but now the audio isn't importing. So I know it's not a problem with the video file. And I know that I have the volume up in iMovie... the intro w/ music that I have in iMovie is playing the audio perfectly. The problem is with importing a video file (mp4). I've literally imported hundreds of video clips into iMovie, and have never had this problem. My Mac is 10.6.8. Any suggestions?

I'm using imovie 9.0.9 with OSX 10.7.5
I also went through days of troubleshooting why some clips have sound and some don't. All quicktime files have sound when played from quicktime. But no sound when imported into imovie.
None of the Apple or User suggestions worked. But I finally found a solution. I'm working on a project with over 100 clips. Everything was fine until I tried to import around 20 clips at the same time. Some had sound some didn't. Also, when done with each section, I exported the movies and deleted the thumbnails from the imovie clips window to clean up and organize the session. When re importing clips which previously had sound, the sound was gone but the image would play.
What I found was that any file which had been deleted from the clips window, was now in the Rejected Clips window. Re importing the file would only show image but no sound. Once I Move Rejected Clips to Trash, emptied the finder trash, and re imported the files, all files played with sound.

MXF file plays with audio on Source Monitor but timeline imports only the video

Hello,
This started happening like a few hours ago. But it was working perfectly before! This is driving me insane!
This is the situation (Premiere CC, updated to latest version):
- I have a bunch of MXF files and if I play them on the Source Monitor, audio and video play perfectly.
- The moment I drag the MXF file onto the timeline, only the video is imported, not the audio.
- I tried to drag only the audio, using the different ways that Premiere provides but it won't come at all.
I managed to import audio and video doing the following: close all sequences, and drag the MXF file in the timeline with no sequence opened thus it will create a sequence with the imported audio and video from the MXF file.
BUT if I try to drop the SAME MXF file in this brand new sequence, only the video will come again.
Does anyone have an idea of what is going on? And why it suddenly stopped working?
Thank you!

Problems with audio on DV import

Hi
I have both FCPX and Final Cut Studio 3 installed on my system. I am starting to capture some SD 4:3 DV footage from a Panasonic GS500 Camcorder connected via firewire 400. I have set my import up as Standard PAL video with audio set to Stereo, 32kHz, Apple ProRes 422 ( audio matches the 12bit recording from the camera ). However when the import begins the audio starts to break up on ingest and eventually cuts out completely, even though the origional tape is fine.
I have also tried on my laptop with the same results.
My workround is to capture the footage in iMovie 11 and then import the footage direct into FCPX, this works no problem but I would like to just import straight into FCPX!
Has anyone else had this problem or any ideas what to do?
Many thanks

The audio on the tape is 12bit not 16bit. I thought that if the audio is 16bit you import as 48kHz and if 12bit you import as 32kHz. The audio when captured in iMovie comes through to FCPX as 32kHz 12bit. Also when I have tried to import in FCP7 from the same tapes with an easy setup of DV 48kHz the audio is out of sync whereas DV 32kHz is fine.
I will try your suggestion however.
Many thanks for your quick reply.

Trouble with audio files when imported from audio window

after "bouncing" and audio region and importing it (onto a new track) into the arrange window from the audio window, I can't seem to control any parameters like volume and pan for the imported clip. Is this somehow locked?

sure....say I record a clip in track one with a bunch of plugins....export the clip to the audio region...then import back to the arrange...
First of all it won't let me play the clip in Track 2, but if I shift the clip to track 3 it'll play....BUT I can't control the volume or pan .....very strange. I hate freezing stuff...although I have been for ages....but if this works it'll be cool....
Thanks...

Importing footage with audio

I am running a Mac Probook 2.0 with 1.5 gigs or Ram OS 10.48 Final cut Express 3.5 HD. I need to import footage from another source. I have been importing as mpeg 1 when I import to FCP i loose the audio, what format can I use to import into FCP that will also take the audio? I have the capablity to change the format prior to importing into FCP. anyone out there have any suggestionsa?

try using a program like MPEG Streamclip to transcode the clip before you import it ... best bet is to convert it to the native format of your timeline

Audio Won't Import After First Clip

So I'm having this weird glitch in Premiere the last few days.
The first video clip I drag into a timeline works fine. But after that, any clip I drag from the Project window onto the timeline will ONLY give me video - not audio... even though I know the audio is there. It even plays in the source preview window.
The only way to get both again after the first time is to drag multiple clips onto the timeline at once. That works for some reason.
Restarting the program doesn't alleviate the problem, and neither does restarting the computer. I've tried resetting my preferences, but that did not work. I also tried reinstalling the program, but that didn't work, either.
I can't seem to find anyone else on the web talking about this problem.
Anybody seen this before or have any ideas? It's super annoying.
Edit for more info: The "Drag Audio Only" function in the source window also will not work at all. "Drag Video Only" works fine.
Meanwhile, going back to Adobe Premiere CC (Rather than CC 2014) there is no such problems. But I can't do that on projects I'm already working on in CC 2014...

So I talked to customer support and they told me what to do. Apparently you need to make sure the "A1" on the very left is highlighted or it won't work. It will still import the first one since it's a new sequence, but after that you're sunk. I wonder why I never encountered this before. Oh well. Good to know.

IPhone video with audio, but after import to iMac; no audio

I have an iPhone video I recored on my iPhone 5 with iOS 7.1.1. It plays just fine on the iPhone WITH sound just fine.
When I used Image Capture to bring it into my iMac OSX 10.9.2 the audio is silent. Quicktime Player shows an audio track, but when I play the video it is silent. Other movies play fine in Quicktime Player
Any ideas?

Anyone?
This seems crazy. The video is just Fine on my iPhone 5 iOS 7.1.1, but after import: no audio on Mac.

FS700 Footage. Audio missing on import

I have recorded 1 hour footage from a concert. When I import it into Premier CC 2014, the Audio is missing, or all 1 hour audio is "compressed" into the first 12 minutes.
I can play the clip in Quicktime og VLC without any audio problems...
What to do....?

Would an assumption that this is AVCHD be correct? If so ... I hope you grabbed the entire folder structure from the card & copied that to your computer in one piece, then navigated to the footage using PrPro's "media browser" and imported to your project from there, then used Project Panel to add to source monitor or timeline ... ?

Cut section of footage with audio out of timeline - HOW??

Hi I've tried to select a middle section of my timeline and cut it out and have the two sections join - how do I do this? I've tried cutting the back end and pasting over the middle section, but it will NOT overwrite the audio. Video will overwrite but it does not lay audio over with it.
I've Tried using Extract audio when using "Paste over at Playhead" checked and not checked. It doesn't work either way. any help please?

Hi dsafian - if I understand you correctly, removing a section is simple, but there are two scenarios and you do not give enough detail for us to know which one to describe, so here's both:
1. Cutting a section out of a single clip: there is more than one way, but here's one. Place the playhead at the start of the part you want to remove and hit Command-T. That will split the clip at that point. Now go to the end of the unwanted part, and do the same. Then select the middle part and hit 'Delete'.
2. Removing several clips: Select the first clip you want to remove, and then Shift-Click on the last clip to be removed. this will select all of the clips that you want removed. Now hit 'Delete'.
Does that help? Tell us if we have misunderstood your problem.

HELP! - i need to recapture footage WITH AUDIO (edit clip settings??)

so i logged about 10 tapes with the "audio" box unchecked in the clip settings window. so i didnt realize this until i logged all my clips and there wasn't any audio. i realize i need to recapture all my tapes again (which is fine) but I cannot edit the clip settings to tell fcp to this time capture the audio.
i do not want to log all these tapes again. any suggestions please??
thanks

Try selecting all the logged clips in the Browser and then choose Modify > Clip Settings.
A window opens allowing you to change the settings

Transcoding RED footage with Final Cut Pro 7 Log & Transfer

I'm ingesting and transcoding REDCODE files for a project and everything's going fine. But there's one .RDM folder that's causing problems. WheN I try to mount the volume within the Log and Transfer tool, it just immediately shuts down FCP completely. It's happened on multiple computers using multiple versions of FCP so it's obviously the folder itself or the footage it contains that's causing trouble. Anyone know how to resolve or troubleshoot?

Use RED software to convert the footage....like RED Cine X.
