Relinking camera sound to corresponding clips

Hi,
I am currently editing a short film on Final Cut Pro but now find myself in an awkward situation. Just yesterday the director of the film came in and wished to “play around with the edit”. We have pickups planned and he wanted to make sure that what we planned to shoot would cut in well with the edit, and that it would be all that was needed. I left him alone in the edit suite for a time so that he could experiment with cutting and visualising the end product, and in his moment of inspiration, he ended up making several severe cuts to the film: unfortunately he switched off linked selection (that keeps the audio and video tracks bound together) and now the entire project is out of sync; in fact the audio tracks are a complete mess, and I am unable to revert to an old save file as this would undo the director’s multiple changes. My question is, is there some simple way of reconnecting camera sound with its corresponding clip in the timeline? I am using Final Cut Pro 7.

Why not select the clip, and press f, to match the clip in the Viewer.
This will load the clip in the viewer, with ceorresponding in and outpoints, with the audio.
just drage over the wrong clip in the timeline and all will be fine.
Also. If sound and picture belong to each other, the amount of out of sync is indicated with a red block with white numbers in the begining of the clip in the timeline.
Right clicking on that red block gives you the opportunity to slip or slide the audio back in sync.

  • When i import from my vidio camera into imovie the clips look tall and thin.tied different imports like full size or large but seem to make no difference everything seems to run ok including sound whats going on?   the m

    when i import from my video camera into imovie the clips look tall and thin. tried different imports like full size or large have imported both sd and hd but seem to make no difference everything seems to run ok including sound. whats going on?  

    Hi Brad,
    when you use Streamclip to convert media, use the same name for the exported file (only with different extension). Then make a shell script calling
    touch -r origFileName.mp2 newFileName.mov
    This will copy the exact time and date from origFileName.mp2 to newFileName.mov
    The script may look like this (save the file, give an exec permission to it and call it in the right directory):
    #!/bin/bash
    for i in `ls *.mp2`; do
    NEWNAME=$(ls "$i" | sed -e 's/mp2/mov/')
    touch -r $i $NEWNAME
    done
    You may need to adapt the extension names used (in the example above .mp2 is input file to get the date/time stamp from and .mov is the output file to stamp.
    Have fun and cheers

  • There is no sound on video clips downloaded from my camera phone

    There is no sound on video clips downloaded from my cell phone camera. I have sound on all other applications. The clips have sound on my husband's computer which has windows vista.

    With help from Costco Concierge, the problem was solved by downloading a sound card from Itunes.

  • Premiere elements 13 sound of import clip gone after importing?

    The sound of the clips I load into premiere elements (13) is all of a sudden gone. For all the clips I uploaded earlier I had no problem. Is there maybe a setting I changed without knowing?

    Camilio
    On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 13 running on?
    What are the properties of these clips that you are importing - what is the difference between the earlier imported clips and these latest one?
    Same camera, same settings, same everything?
    Do you have the problem if you start a new project?
    Let us start here. More questions later depending on your reply.
    Thank you.

  • How do I turn the camera sound off in iOS 7 on my 4s?

    Hi,
    I just downloaded iOS 7 on my 4s.  Everything is fine, but it now makes a "shutter/camera" sound when I take a picture.  In iOS 6, I could turn that sound off.  I can't seem to find where to do that in settings....
    Can it be turned off?
    Thanks!
    Emily

    Thanks.  That worked.  Weird that their's nothing in settings....
    Have a good one.

  • How to mute camera sound??

    i have iphone 4 ios7, i can't mute my camera sound but i've been switch the silent button. heelp me

    Laws in some countries don't allow silent phone cameras to discourage surreptitious photography.   iPhones sold in those countries will not silence the camera.
    You may be able to reduce its volume via
    Settings > Sounds > RINGER AND ALERTS

    when in camera mode, you select options, scroll down and the option should be there. if its not there then its the firmware version. where are you located? it may have been removed by your country's standards.
    you can also try switching to silent.
    Thanks for your reply see the following comments:
    1- No option is available.
    2- Only 6233 has this issue, even in other nokia sets camera sound may be silent, so no issue of country policy.
    3- Please advise how to update the firmware. I have updated software version from 4.5 to 4.91 (Latest available at site)but it doesn't work.
    Kindly advise the solution and/or provide software/firmware update to overcome this deficiency in nokia 6233.

  • How to make camera sound totally silent?

    I have Nokia E5 smartphone. I want to make camera sound totally off. I've download a patch file but it shows me certificate error. Is there any way to make camera totally off?

    @ic3_fir3_
    You're on the right track.  Phone hacking isn't an acceptable topic in these official forums, but do some more web research or ask on unofficial Symbian site.  I suspect you can still make it work, but sadly the process is harder than it used to be.

    Yes, I agree but sometimes in certain situation, i need it to be mute, like when to snap picture in some quite place. I tried off the warning tones but the n82 camera sound still can be heard.
    In that case I'm afraid you're out of luck. Your N82 was obviously intended for a region where the camera must make a noise.

  • Moving sound from one clip to another?

    Can I take the sound from one clip and move it so that it plays during another clip?
    In other words, if I have some narration in one clip that would be better in another clip, can I pluck out that sound (narration) and re-locate it so that it plays at the same time another clip (video) is playing?
    I know that FCP can do this..you just cut out the sound portion you want and cut/paste it into whereever you want, beneath the visual part of whatever clip you want it to play with.
    thanks!

  • Camera sound is there even when device is in silent mode ?

    Camera sound is there even when device is in silent mode?

    Possibly. It depends on what country the phone is from. In some countries, phones are required to make a shutter noise even in silent mode.

  • Where is the grab (camera) sound effect?

    I'm looking for a a camera shutter sound other than the one that comes with iLife. Is there such a sound in the Mac's resources? Where is it?

    Control click on Grab (the Utility) and select "Show Package Contents." Then click on resources and you'll find there are two sound files. One titled OpenShutter.snd and the other CloseShutter.snd.
    DO NOT TAKE THEM OUT OF THE FILE. You can, however, option + drag them to the desk top which will make duplicates of the original files.
    Or you could always go on Google and do a search for "camera sound effects" or something similar.

  • How to turn off camera sound on Nokia E5

    I cannot turn off camera sound on Nokia E5-00. Who can help me?

    @navbond007
    Hi navbond007,
    Digital camera's do have a sounds when a picture is being taken but this noise isn't artificial like in mobile phones it is the shutter mechanism. Some digital camera's shutter makes a low or no noise but they do have a beep to give an indication that a picture is being taken. In countries where this is compulsory by law it should give some indication that a picture is being taken.
    Also please take into account one device is a phone and the other a dedicated camera.

  • How to turn off camera-sound (6120 classic)

    i have no idea how to turn off the camera sound from my nokia 6120 classic
    no matter wich profile i use (completely silent, just vibra, etc.), the camera always makes this annoying "click" every time i take a picture
    is there a possibility to turn this sound off or at least replace it?
    thx

    well , you're right, but the law argues that a digital camera looks like a digital camera so it's easier to spot by the person being photographed. also, a digital camera has no other function but to take pictures, so one can't assume it's being used for any othe purpose. on the othe hand, a phone can't be identified as a camera right away. so it's easier to take pictures of unwilling subjects.
