Shared MP3 - Audio Distortion

Hello-
I have an offline MP3 that is audible and runs just fine in preview mode on my Mac. However, when I upload it directly to a room in a shared pod or access it via the administrative content manager, again in a share pod, the sound is distorted. This has been replicated in multiple rooms.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
~Kyle~

Sharing an iMovie as an MP4 with MP3 audio

I have an iMovie that is complete. I have uploaded a Quicktime movie to Google video. The video plays but no audio. They are telling me that they prefer MP4 with MP3 audio. If I go to share in iMovie, I choose "export" mode. This gives me the MP4 option, but no way to change the audio to mp3. Am I missing something?

iMovie doesn't use (or create) .mp3 (MPEG-1 Layer 3) audio.
From the Google video upload pages:
Technical Requirements:
We accept many popular formats, such as AVI, ASF, QuickTime, Windows Media and MPEG formats. For example, .avi, .asf, .mov, .wmv, .mpg, .mpeg, .mp4, .ra, .ram, and .mod are all acceptable file extensions. Please note that we currently do not accept Flash files. Specific video codecs we accept include H.264, H.263, MPEG 1/2/4 and motion JPEG.
The video must contain recognizable video content (video container files that do not contain video will not be accepted).
The frame rate should be above 12 frames per second.
The bitrate must be above 260 Kbps.
The video must be at least 10 seconds long.
If you have a video in another format, we will do our best to interpret it.
Quality Recommendations:
If possible, we suggest uploading the original source file. However, we recommend the specifications below for maximum quality and reasonable file size:
MPEG4 (mp3 or mp4 audio) at 2 mbps
MPEG2 (mp3 or mp4 audio) at 5 mbps
30 frames per second
640x480 resolution
4:3 frame
de-interlace
MPEG-4 Video and AAC audio codecs in a .mov container should work just fine.

Problem with Audio Distortion

I have a large iTunes (v7.2) library with over 110,000 tracks, which I run through the digital line out of a Mac Pro running OS X 10.4.10. For some reason, I'm suddenly getting serious audio distortion on many of the tracks. Some tracks play with distorted, crackling, others play extremly softly. Others play fine. What makes the problem strange is that it occurs with different tracks encoded in different ways: MP3, unprotected AAC, protected AAC, and Apple lossless tracks are all affected. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to which tracks are affected. Furthermore, I've verified that it's not the tracks themselves...if I run the same tracks through iTunes on another computer (via library sharing), they play fine. Finally, I've turned off Sond Check, Sound Enhancer, and the Equalizer, but the problem persists.
It's very frustrating! If anyone can please help me, I will be extremely grateful. Thanks so much!

HT6114 I'm still getting audio distortion when I input audio through the minijack.

I updated to Mavericks, and now when I plug my iPhone in with the miniplug with a male-to-male cord, I get a pitch shift that happens randomly through Quicktime audio recording.
Since I don't have my music backed up on this computer, I input my iPhone's music through a cord and use the audio recording feature. It's worked great for over a year until I upgraded to Mavericks, and I hoped this update would have fixed it since it said "• Fixes an issue that my cause audio distortion on certain Macs."

Is it just sites like YouTube? Can you play music files-mp3/cd ,hear Windows system sounds,etc?

Audio distortion in Burned DVD's

I posted this in iDVD, but think it may be an iMovie issue since I didn't have the problem using the iLife 6 apps.
Anyway, just looking for some answers/thoughts.
So I get some distortion, what sounds like maxed volume through crappy speakers when I now that I use iMovie 08, iDVD 08 and Garageband (forced to use because I want custom chapter markers) & I have had the same audio distortion with several projects using various downloaded (amazon) mp3's or LAME rips 224 kbps or higher. I checked the dvd on my PS3 to Pioneer plasma...sounds distorted. Other computers and "simple DVD" players the song is high but can't tell the distortion.
So here's what I'm trying to answer
Is it my PS3-Pioneer TV?
How does the normalization in iMovie work? Does garageband undo it?
Here's why I ask...I set the volume levels for 75% on all music tracks then normalized and exported, loaded in Gband, added chapters and re-exported using share to disk. I saw something speed by that looked liked it said normalizing, and was wondering what that does to the track that is supposedly already normalized.
I plan on running a few tests so that I don't have deal with this again.
I have re-done the audio without normalization, but volume at 75%. I'll import this direct to idvd...test
same thing only run through gband then idvd..test
Any help/info is appreciated...
PS..I usually burn on TDK DVD-R's

Volume will control the sound from the main Video track. I usually set it at either 100% or 0%, but no reason you cant use other settings.
The Ducking feature controls the volume of the music tracks, extracted tracks, and voiceovers as a percentage of the volume of the main track.
So 100% in Ducking means main track and music track have same volume.
15% ducking means music track is 15% of volume of main track. 0% ducking means that music track is silent.

MP3 audio voice changes

Hi. I've used Capitvate for a couple of years now but have
never imported MP3 audio narration before. What I'm running into is
that when I play back the audio clips (recorded by a woman) it
distorts the voice, slows it down, and it sounds like a man but
only plays about half of the clip before time runs out. If you
click on the audio clip and press 'Play', the voice sounds normal.
I've played with all of the audio settings but it still distorts
the audio clip. Thanks.

I had this same problem and solved it by converting the MP3
file to a constant, fairly low bit rate. I used Switch or WavePad
software to do this. I found that using an MP3 file with a Constant
Bit Rate of 112 kps works fine. Higher bit rates or using variable
bit rate can cause the audio to slow down.Just one more bizarre
Captivate bug (among many).

Cp6: .mp3 audio being inadvertantly converted to .wav!

I am having an inexplicable problem. I had a WBT crash on me because (I think) the .wav audio files I was using were too much (memory). So, I asked my IT dept. to get me something that converts .wav files into .mp3 (for smaller files). They installed "Audacity" to help me. Audacity does convert the audio into .mp3, and my Cp 6 WBT imports each .mp3 file into each respective slide, but when I go back into each slide that has an .mp3 file installed, each .mp3 audio file is inexplicably converted back to .wav!!!
If anyone can assist, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Hi there
Internally the audio files are always converted to WAV as well as MP3. But on the way out to the finished product, only the MP3 is used as it is the smaller and more efficient of the two.
At least that's how it worked in the past. Perhaps something changed? Or are you just freaking out because you see wav in your project?
Cheers... Rick

How do I listen to mp3 audio files on my iPhone 4s?

I have recently purchased and downloaded some mp3 audio files onto my personal computer. I was able to transfer them to my itunes library. I now want to listen to them on my iPhone 4s. How do i do this? If I go to the itunes store application, i can see all of my "purchases", and I can easily download those to my iphone. But these particular audio files were not purchased from itunes. So how do I get them to my iphone? Thank you!!

I also have purchased and downloaded an mp3 audio file (not from itunes) onto my macbook air. I was able to transfer it to my itunes library. I now want to listen to it on my iphone 4s. How do I do this? If i go to the itunes store application, i can see my "purchase" . I emailed the mp3 (it went to a downloader automatically). I couldn't open it in email to listen to it on my iphone 4s. So I purchased idownloader pro". still cannot listen to them on my phone. Isn't there a way to transfer them without physically connecting the mac to my iphone? afraid to do this as I screwed up my files, etc doing this in the past!! Any suggestions??? Thank you!!

I downloaded a TV/computer program both as an mp3 (audio) and mp4 (A&V). But the download did not appear in the download drop-down or in itunes. Does that mean I cannot burn that mp3 or mp4 to a CD or DVD?

I download a TV/computer program both as an mp3 (audio) and as a mp4 (A&V) I could play them directly using the URLs but neither appeared in the download dropdown or in i tunes. Does that mean that these files cannot be burned to a CD or DVD?

Audio from imported video doesn't sync with mp3 audio imported

I thought I had a neat way to easily "back up" my audio of an event by using an mp3 recorder on the podium to capture speaker and just recording with on-cam mic at the camcorder, so not to have to mess with wireless mics and jack connections on the camcorder. My thought was that since these are both "digital" recordings of the same event, they would stay in sync. Yet when I put them both in the time line of iMovie, the mp3 sound file does not stay in sync, falling behind. Every sentence or so I have to cut some of the file out to shorten it and bring it back into sync. Any guess why these don't stay in sync?
PV-GS500 DV tape camcorder, sansa m250 mp3
Cutting the sound file to keep it in sync worked, and I needed in for an event I just recently did, where the first speaker, who spoke briefly, did not turn on the room mic, and couldn't be heard well by the camera mic. So we now hear perfectly what that first speaker said, but I was disappointed that I had to trim after every sentence to keep the mp3 audio in sync.
Thanks, Dale

I'm assuming that you are using the Sound class to control
the MP3 sounds? If that is the case then they will not be sync with
your timeline and if your animations are too much for the SWF to
stay at the 30fps rate then it will slow down to complete the
animations.
One way to sync them up would be to place them in a layer in
your timeline and then in the Parameters box at the bottom set the
Sync dropdown to Stream.
Then if your movie slows the audio and animations will still
be together.
This is not as flexible as you may currently have it but it
might work for you.

How do I turn off automatic streaming of MP3 audio?

I like to download podcasts directly to my desktop so I can later transfer them to my Sansa media player. Now that I've installed Quicktime podcasts stream and play automatically in my Firefox browser window. What settings do I change to turn off automatic streaming of MP3 audio?

Well, in fact I have the same problem. And by the way, I dislike marketing tricks as proposing that you buy the pro-version of quicktime if you ever want to download mp3-files again (as a right click on the quicktime browser-player does).
I already switched off every file link and stream-related ghismo that points towards quicktime as player, in the quickime control in control panel as wel on any other place I could find.
But the only thing I acchieved is, that IE now starts downloading as soon as I go to a link to an MP3 file and after some time it says "ready".
An firefox stubbornly keeps opening the quicktime player.
I tend to disagree with IE as I can't find any file on my system, with regardless what searching technique.
Is there a way to get things back to normal without uninstalling Quicktime and reinstalling my browsers (wich is useless as Itunes will prompt me to reinstall quicktime)???

Sporadic audio distortion on 24"iMac

Hi all,
Since buying my 24" iMac, I've had a problem while watching (for example) YouTube videos, whereby audio is fine through the internal speakers, but for about 1 second in every 30 the audio distorts and gets slightly louder, then it goes back to normal. I assumed it was maybe a browser (Safari4) or plug-in issue and could live with it.
Since upgrading to 10.6.2 yesterday morning, the exact same problem is affecting my iTunes playback, which is of course more of a problem!
Can anyone shed any light on this? The machine was a refurb, and it's still under warranty.

HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
Try the 10.6.2 combo update available here.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL959
Then repair disk permissions.
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.
You could also try uninstalling and reinstalling the Flash player plugin.
Uninstall Flash
Reinstall Flash
Restart your Mac.

ITunes cannot open files in the "MP3 Audio File" format

Lately I've been getting this error that iTunes can't open MP3 files. It happens when I try to double click on an MP3, however, if I click and drag the MP3 into my iTunes library it opens fine. Not a huge problem....just a nuisance.
Running iTunes 10.0.1

I suddenly have this same problem with MacOS 10.6.7 and iTunes 10.2.2. Clicking on a tune in a folder gets the prompt "The document xxxx.mp3 could not be opened. iTunes cannot open files in the MP3 audio format."
Dragging the tune into iTunes will open it, so there's no problem with it being a "trouble file" that needs validating with some external app. I believe this is a new glitch that came with iTunes 10.2.2. It's workable but quite irritating when trying to manage an iTunes library that includes 28,000-plus songs.
