Sound & Picture Sync going out

I recently upgraded to iDVD '08 and having a problem with the synchronization on my end movie. I export my wedding movies from FCE with all the chapter markers to iDVD. Everything appears fine in the preview, but once the project is burnt, towards the end of the movie, the synchronization is out. I have had to format my pc and reinstall iLife '06.
Has anybody had a similar problem, or is there something I am doing wrong?
Desperately need some help.

Q: Has anybody had a similar problem, or is there something I am doing wrong?
A: Yes. Especially when attempting to use 12 bit audio as opposed to the recommended 16 bit. Check all camera settings. The sync issue gets progressively worse as the length of the video increases ..... use only 16 bit audio with i-apps.

Sync Goes Out on Several Clips AFter DVD Pro Burn

This problem existed on several clips that were relatively close together in timeline. As this is a 52' video with many cuts and multi-tracks, I tried using the audio mixdown render in FCP and then burned again. There was an improvement, but I still have one clip out of sync.
Any ideas on what else to do?
I'm exporting to QT Conversion and encoding as high as I can push the DVD Pro encoder - to around 7.2.
FCP 5
DVD PRO 4

I'm correcting what I reported earlier. The sync goes out on the output from FCP. This is NOT a DVD STUDIO PRO problem! I'm using the QUICKTIME CONVERSION option on the output.
I'll repost in the FCP forum.

Copied a chart as picture in Excel 2007, but picture size goes out of whack in InDesign

I copied a chart as picture in Excel 2007 (selected as shown when printed), but the picture expands across the whole page when I paste into Indesign. Pls help

To place an Excel chart, first convert it to PDF. Then place the PDF file in InDesign.
Copying objects from Excel isn't reliable.

Picture is going out for several seconds. Audio continues...

We keep losing picture on pretty much all channels. It disappears for several seconds (black screen) but the audio continues. The time it is gone is increasing as well as the frequency. It's not the TV, because it is recorded on the DVR like this, if you rewind etc. Any ideas?
Thanks

I have also experienced this I know its not the tv because it did it on my old set and now my new one.

Sound goes out of sync in playback, why???

I have just bought the new MacBook Pro 13" with the i7 dual core 2.8
and bought Final Cut X from the app store - Im playing around with some footage shot on the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ7
Ive put in a few edits with transitions, some titles and added sound effects.
In playback, the sound slowly goes out of sync! After only about 10 seconds...
The vision lags while the sound keeps going, there is some flickering, then its worse.
If I pause playback, then resume it resets...
Any ideas?
cheers, David

I have also experienced this. Not on every video. But on some videos.
The sync slowly drifts. Then hit pause and then play, and sure enough, the picture and sound are back in sync again.
This tells me that if you export ("share") the movie, the sound will be fine (it was for me). But it is unnerving to preview your work and see and hear the picture and sound drift out of sync like that.
I don't know the answer of why it happens (or how to remedy it), but my hunch is it has something to do with either not enough memory (or processing power), or a slightly underpowered video card. Just a guess.
I guess in any of those cases, the remedy would be to upgrade to a more powerful computer. :-(

Sound slowly goes out of sync

Have a movie that I have run through compressor 3 as both an .avi and as an .MP4. Then burn in DVDSP 4.2. The video and sound are in sync for the first half of the movie and then slowly goes out of sync. It gets worse as the movie goes on. Anyway to correct this?
Thank you.

The normal process would be to export a self-contained or reference movie from FCP, then use the resulting file in Compressor and choose the appropriate DVD preset based on the duration of your movie. Compressor will create the needed MPEG-2 (.m2v) video file and AC3 audio file for use in DVD Studio Pro.
MP4 is NOT a format used for DVDs and AVI is a Windows video container - neither are recommended for DVD Studio Pro.

Issues with finder going out of sync with file images in cover flow.

Hi All,
I'm having issues with files going out of sync with images in cover flow since updating to Mavericks. Typically, if I had for example 10 pictures listed as 1 to 10, if i deleted images 6&7 the images remain in coverflow but the file listings are removed, then if i click on image 7 the file listing of image 8 is highlighted, then to make matters worse, if i click on the file listing for image 9 in shows image 8 in cover flow. To stop this I have to shut down finder and restart it, then the whole thing repeats itself if i delete more images. Its a nightmare when your working with 50 plus images at a time!!! Help!!
Thanks all.

com.apple.systemuiserver.plist and com.apple.finder.plist
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Preferences/. Move the .plists to your desktop.
Re-launch Finder by loggin out/in and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer ones.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
You might need to redo the View settings after an update.
If you look at the 'More Like This' box (top right) it seems the Cover Flow view is having problems.
Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Everytime I'm watching a video and I get a text or any type of notification the video picture goes out?

when i'm in the middle of watching a video and get an alert. As soon as I hit respond or ignore and resume the video the picture goes out but the sound remains? It does this everytime!

On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 11 running?
Your videos are likely 1920 x 1080p30 H.264.mov. Please confirm.
First question, do you have the latest version of QuickTime installed on your computer. If not, please do that
and report back on the outcome.
Thanks.

Picture Going Out after buying Pioneer Receiver

I just installed a pioneer VSK 921K receiver and using HDMI in/out, I am having a problem where the picture goes out, but not the sound after about 2 hours, sometimes an hour of watching. When I switch from DVD back to DVR it comes back and I don't have any issues.
I'm inclined to think it's my TV going down the tubes, but it seems very coincidental to me that it started the same day I installed my new receiver.
Is this something I should be worried about with my TV or receiver (TV is a plasma 50 inch pioneer).

It sounds like the TV is losing "handshake" with the receiver. Make sure the cables are firmly seated. Your TV may be an older version of HDMI than is on the receiver, but that should not be any real problem.

HELP! Audio goes out of sync after export!

OK, folks. I need your help. I have a looming deadline of THIS FRIDAY to hand this in.
I have a finished multicam edit of a show that runs 1 hr 20 min. It plays back perfectly in the timeline, all video and audio perfectly in sync. Looks and sounds exactly like what I need.
When I export the video as an H.264 file, the audio gets out of sync with the video by 13 frames! But that's not all... It doesn't happen to the entire audio track. There's about 50 minutes in the middle of the video where the audio goes out of sync. The audio at the beginning and ending of the video is lined up perfectly in sync. It's just the middle section that gets screwy.
What do I do?!
This has never happened before, and I've worked a lot with multicam in Premiere Pro CC before this. Never been an issue. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Premiere, and also deleting all media cache files, but still no dice. I also tried copying the clips into a new sequence in the same project, copying the clips into a new sequence in a NEW project, nesting the sequence... nothing works.
My setup:
MacBook Pro Retina (Rev. A)
Premiere Pro CC (latest version)
Panasonic GH3 footage in 1080p 24p AVCHD timeline
3 cameras & 1 audio WAV file in Multicam
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

OK, I figured out how to fix it:
In Premiere Pro CC, click on SEQUENCE > DELETE RENDER FILES.
Try exporting the movie again.
It worked! I exported the same sequence, and it took a long while to re-render the audio files, but when it was finished exporting the audio and video were in perfect sync. I'm not sure what caused it, but this fixed it, so hopefully anyone else having this issue can save a lot of time by reading this.
Cheers!

Why is my audio going out of sync?

Hi
I have a .mp4 clip I want to import into FCE. I use convert using quicktime, select dv-pal & 25 FPS.
The video file looks great, however it hasn't touched the audio and sound and picture are now out of sync.
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks

Check that the audio and Seqeunce settings for audio are the same.
FCE only uses 32 or 48 kHz audio depending on the Easy Setup chosen which governs the FCE Sequence.
BTW: Any audio coming to FCE should be aiff. 48 kHz is best.

AME - Converting to MP4 and different FPS - audio goes out of sync

As described in the title.
I'm reencoding a 1920x1080 29,97 fps video into a 1280x720 60 fps video. Audio is AAC 44100 stereo.
Basicly a task that many of those free converters on Windows do smoothly. I use Mac...
I'm surprised that it goes out of sync, like 3-4 secs EARLY sound on a span of 2 mins video.
Settings here:
AME CS6 Fully updated
source: 1920x1080 29,97fps MP4 with AAC 44100hz audio
Target:
Codec: H264
Saves as : MP4
1280 x 720
60 fps Progressive - NTSC
CBR VBR1 VBR2 doesn't matter
Max rendering quality
Codec Audio AAC 44100hz (as source)
Any ideas ?

Because we stream at 60 fps and we have to convert all the materials we receive from our partners from the usual 29,97 to 60.
Thanks for your MVPaluable help.

Sound & picture drop outs

Good day...
I was videoing a friends wedding & had 2 cams going. I have imported the tapes but one of the tapes has drop outs os sound & picture. It doesnt show when viewing onth ecamera or TV just when importing. I am using one camera to import both tapes. 1 is fine & the other has problems (although it plays fine on th ecam & tv).
Any thoughts. I have done a few before without prob. The souns was set at 16bit on both cams.
al
Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Thanks for the quick reply...
1. Identical cameras?
no Canon Elura 20 & Canon ZR80
2. Identical brand of camera tape?
yes
3. Has either of the tapes been used before, or were
they in both cases virgin recordings?
no, both new tapes (good point)
4. Were the tapes properly time-coded before
recording commenced?
not sure what you mean my time coding the tapes.
Using iMove, not sure if time codes would be an issue.
But why would the tape in question play perfect on the cam (while importing) yet stagger on the screen (real time)? The other tape was fine.
Do I have to import with the orig cam it was recorded with? I wouldnt think so as it plays perfect on this cam.
thx

While syncing my ipod all songs and pictures were cleaned out of it and now it is not recognized by itunes. Help!

Whiling syncing my ipod all of my music and pictures were cleaned out and now my ipod is not recognized my itunes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and it didn't help. Any suggestions?

What shows up on the iPod's display when you have it connected to your PC? Have you tried resetting the iPod with it still connected? To this, press and hold both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Otherwise, try rebooting your PC, opening iTunes, and then reconnecting your iPod to a high powered USB 2.0 port.

Since the iOS 7 update, some apps no longer have sound, even of configured to do so. Example, no longer does my FaceTime ring even if I have a tone set; my email app doesn't make a sound when email comes in or goes out. Help!

Ever since I updated to ios7, sounds from specific apps has disappeared, even if configured correctly to make sounds. My mail doesn't sound off anymore when mail comes in or goes out. My FaceTime no longer rings when someone calls me. My map app no longer gives me voice instructions like it did before. If someone messages me I do not hear sounds anymore. I find it very annoying especially because I have family abroad and FaceTime is an important means of communication. I reset it by pressing the sleep and home button and all, nothing happened.
Can someone help understand how to resolve this problem.
Thank you so very much.

(A) Reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
(B) Make sure sound is not muted in Control Center; tap on the little bell. Swipe upwards from bottom of screen to launch Control Center
