  • Nokia n97 mini sound quality for videos

    I used to have a nokia N95 8GB which recorded great videos with good sound quality.  Now I have the N97mini and for most videos you can barely hear the sound unless it is you speaking.  Is there any way to record better video sound quality?

  • How can I match sound quality between video clips and audio clips?

    Hi guys,
    First of all let me say that I enjoy using the latest Media Encoder. However, as a novice, I have two related problems.
    1.I am recording video to use with PowerPoint slides in Adobe Captivate. I am encoding the video with best quality FLV. This produces very good video,
          but with a degraded audio track, even though I had filtered the audio in soundbooth. The post encoding sounds like it did before Soundbooth corrections.
    2. Some of the video recording has been set cut into audio clips to be used as background narration behind PowerPoint. The logic behind this is: that if both are
          recorded at the same time, the voice quality should match.
    This is far from the outcome. I have tried MP3 for the audio which of course produced the best sound- but is entirely unlike the rest of the video. I have also encoded the audio with Windows Waveform preset figuring that since the soundbooth edit was a .wav file, that there should be a reasonable match. Wrong again!
    So, the audio quality of all clips is poor, and the difference between the encoded video clips, and the audio encoded clips spoils the otherwise professional result in Captivate.
    Please help, all of you experts.

    Thank you.
    OS Windows 7 x 64; 3.2 MHz; 2 TB; 12 GB Ram-9GB ram allocated to Adobe.
    My process is this:
    1. The whole video and audio narration material is shot in one continuous video sesseion.
    2. The microphone is only mono, but the camera is set to stereo. Noone can work out how to change the camera to mono.
    3. In Premiere Pro 5, I select render and replace in SoundBooth.
    4. In Soundbooth, I choose Add Multichannels.
    5. In Multichannels, I delete the unwanted noisy channel, and any other unused channels.
    6. With the remaining mono channel, I then select Export and Save As option, then Stereo.
    7. Next I edit the stereo channels as needed.
    8. The imported stereo won't automatically update in Premiere Pro, so in PPR I import the new edited stereo track.
    9. I test this track in PPR, to check that it is playing R & L channels. It is. OK.
    10 On the timeline, I proceed to cut apart this single stereo wavelength .
    11.These clips are saved as Video, or Audio subclips.
    12 From the video subclips, I export to Media Encoder, and choose either FLV4 match attributes (High Q). This I modify to custom 2 pass (Custom save).
         The summary says that this is saved to MP3 Stereo.
    13. I import this into Captivate 5, but the Video outcome is Left channel only. I have tested this on Media Player/Real Player where it is also L channel only.
    14. I export my Audio subclips to Media player, and select MP3 option and this summary also reports stereo. The Audio outcome is stereo, when played in any player and in Captivate 5.
    I cannot understand how a single, continuous track edited uniformly in Soundbooth to stereo, can produce different outcomes in Media player.
    I would so appreciate a solution to this problem, because, in the Captivate 5 e-learning production, the switch between stereo audio (behind PowerPoints), and l. channel video is distracting. Naturally, the l. channel only is a thin sound. It is as if it had never been edited in SoundBooth at all.

  • AVI Files, Sound but No Video

    I have searched the forums but could not find the answer.  I have a slightly tricky situation.
    I have old AVI files on my hard drive captured from a Sony D8 camcorder.  I used PE (version 2 I believe) to capture them.  This was a couple of years ago.  I have around 30 tapes and captured all the material from all of the tapes (around 700GB).  I then inlayed the date and time stamp on all the clips using DV Date (an excellent utility).  The initial enthusiasm of editing and converting them to DVD's stopped after the first couple of projects ;-)
    Fast forward 2 years, when I tried to play the clips, I only get sound and no video (Windows media player, NERO, WinAmp etc.), with one exception, the VLC player.  When I get the clips into PE, they work fine!  The DV date utility also cannot open the files. It says, only audio stream found and no video stream.
    I tried VirtualDub.  It plays them without any errors.  I then saved them and tried to play with other players.  Same problem.  Previously every player was playing them fine and now they don't.  I am terrified by the idea of re-importing from all the tapes and re-inlaying them with date and time.
    What I did between the time they played fine and now was to back-up all the files onto another hard drive and defragment the first hard drive (I am still using the same computer to do all this).  Files have the same problem from either drive.
    Bottom line, the clips work fine within PE but sound with no video on the media players.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks a lot.

    Bill,
    Just wanted to post a follow-up on my problem for the benefit of others.
    I thought all my files are corrupt and decided to capture them again.  When I hooked up my Sony D8 camcorder (using FireWire) I had problems again!  PrE said "Can't Activate Recorder.  Try Resetting Camcorder".
    Tried Windows Movie Maker and that gave me a rather helpful (not!) "an unknown error occurred".  Back to my troubleshooting again and found a post somewhere on Adobe forums about "regsvr32 qdv.dll" . [Start -> Run and type regsvr32 qdv.dll (there is a space between 2 and q)].  I did that and all of my old files started working! Windows media player now plays them fine.  GSpot now says everything is good. I have attached the GSpot output below.
    Now the bad news.  When I import media files into PrE, there is no audio!  Windows media player still plays them fine.
    After re-registered the qdv.dll, I had problem with audio but re-starting the PC fixed it.
    Now, back to audio troubleshooting in PrE!  I will post an update if I am successful.
    Thanks.

  • Archlinux + wine + spotify sound quality problems

    Hi,
    have installed Spotify on my Archlinux box using Wine. But I am not able to get the same sound quality as in Windows XP. Have tried all kinds of settings in winecfg. Anybody have the same problem or know how to fix this?

    Hi,
    yes I tried the settings they suggested. But with emulated the music plays good for some seconds and then it starts jumping for some seconds. It does this all the time.
    When I try to run Full it works fine no jumping but instead it has some kind of distorted sound, as being in a metal jar.
    I have the possibility to chose ALSA and OSS in winecfg. The sound quality seems to be a bit better if I use OSS. But not as good as in windows.
    Any more ideas?

    Try to change your default sound API to OSSv4, it has better sound... way better, because you're not actually using OSS, but instead ALSA's OSS emulation...

  • Itunes video sound quality

    I've used itunes for years prior to buying an ipod.
    Now that I have the ipod, ALL of my video files' sound is corrupted. It is very scratchy and full of static, but only when played on my computer. The sound quality on my ipod is flawless. Anyone have any ideas?

  • Crackling/substandard sound in flash videos (YouTube etc) regardless of video quality setting.

    Hi all,
    I hope you can help! Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, I'm struggling to find the best place to put this.
    1. a summary of your issue
    Crackling/substandard sound in flash videos (YouTube etc) regardless of video quality setting.
    2. the type of computer you use—Mac or PC?
    Desktop PC.
    Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, all updates installed.
    3. steps you've already taken to troubleshoot
    The problem occurs after installing Adobe Flash Player 15 Plugin to any browser (I mainly use FireFox). It's listed as Adobe Flash Player 15 ActiveX when I installed it for Internet Explorer.
    Before installing it, I can hear the videos fine but I am limited to a maximum of 720p quality on YouTube.
    I removed my sound and graphics drivers, after restart Windows 7 decides it will install them again but as the generic/universal ones. No change.
    I've heard that because I have the Windows Aero theme activated, I need to disable hardware acceleration - tried this in various ways:
    a) Generic PnP monitor Troubleshoot tab - Change Settings button is greyed out (whether or not I have the real/generic/universal graphics drivers installed). Can't find a way through nVidia control panel to do this either.
    b) Disabled hardware acceleration in FireFox - no change.
    c) Found on your forum here that I can go to a page which will check my Flash version, in theory I could right-click it, hit Settings and disable hardware acceleration there - no "Settings" option in right-click menu. Seems the page has changed.
    I can't seem to find a way to interface with Flash directly to disable hardware accelerattion - if this is indeed the solution.
    Regardless of Windows Aero theme, I've got it on basic theme now and still the same problem.
    I recently reformatted and re-installed my PC, it was working fine before I did this (maybe I had an old Flash release installed?).
    I'm at my wit's end... please help!

    Sorry, it's all sorted now. After re-installing the sound drivers, decided to tinker with the settings one by one. I had my Creative sound card in Game Mode, thus it was assuming 2.1 speakers aka headphones. Put it in Entertainment Mode and it recognised all the 5.1 speakers for flash videos. Doh!

  • Improving sound quality/volume of video

    I've recorded some video from a church service, but the audio quality is fairly poor.  It would be nice to figure out a way to turn it "up" so you can hear it without cranking your speakers all the way up and blowing them out when you switch projects.
    Is there a way to tinker with sound quality? All the features I've found involve adding audio... not altering any embedded audio.
    Quick help is greatly appreciated. I'd like to have this video ready to ship tonight.

    A couple of the most powerful audio features I discuss in my book is Normalizing and Audio Gain control.
    To access them, right-click on an audio clip on your timeline and select Audio Gain.
    You don't say which version of the program you're using but, in every version except version 8, clicking the Normalize button will automatically raise the audio gain for the clip so it sound fuller and louder. In version 8, this feature isn't turned on, so you have to type in a gain number manually.
    When you close this option box, you'll see that the audio waveform for the clip is much fuller. It should go "wall to wall" without being so loud that it overmodulates and distorts. You can try a couple of Audio Gain settings until it looks about right. (Even better if you open the Audio Mixer, under the Window drop-down menu, and watch the levels. They should be full but not in the red.)
    Lots more tips like that in my books, available on Amazon.com and at the Muvipix store!

  • The sound quality of my speaker suddenly got really poor when playing music or videos.  Sounds like an old AM radio or Sputnik.  Pretty sure it's hardware related but maybe not.  Thoughts on what the problem might be and if it can be repaired?

    The batterys the ipods come with are very sensetive somtimes they dont react right to the first couple of charges. Try fully charging it and then leaving it on until its completely drained a few times. If that doesnt work it might be a lemon.

  • Why is the sound quality on iPhone 5s videos so poor compared to iPhone4?

    I used to take lots of videos with my iPhone 4 at nightclubs and or music shows and the sound quality was always very good.
    Now I have just bought an iPhone 5s and the last thing I expected was that the sound on videos would be clipped and distorted badly.  Does anyone have any suggestions, or is it simply that the new phone is rubbish compared to the old one (I really hope not)?

    It could have to do with the noise-cancelling microphone on the device. If you are in a loud area such as the shows, it is trying to single out a sound, normally closest to the phone. I'm not exactly sure if this is the case when recording video. I just know you can turn it off in Accessibility, but that mentions phone calls. Worth a test though.

    So you can ping and nslookup from your ms to these agents and vice versa right?  I wouldn't do a manual install, I would push the agent from the management server.  You can uninstall the agent manually, or use cleanmom to get rid of them.  Then
    do an install from the console.  When you initiate the install from the console (management server), should it run into any issues it will dump out an error which will give you an idea of where the problem may be.
    From Holmans post on this:
    e MOM Server could not execute WMI Query "Select * from Win32_OperatingSystem" on 
    computer “servername.domain.com” 
    Operation: Agent Install 
    Install account: DOMAIN\account

    1.  Ensure agent push account has local admin rights 
    2.  Firewall is blocking NetBIOS access.  If Windows 2008 firewall is enabled, ensure “Remote Administration (RPC)” rule is enabled/allowed.  We need port 135 (RPC) and the DCOM port range opened for console push through a firewall.  
    3.  Inspect WMI service, health, and rebuild repository if necessary 
    4.  Firewall is blocking ICMP  (Live OneCare) 
    5.  DNS incorrect

  • At you tube display video window but did not appear play, pause and sound bottons

    at you tube display video window but did not appear play, pause and sound buttons, last night i watch the video at you tube perfectly.

    It looks like a driver related issue specifically the video card driver. I suggest that you scan your computer with RadarSync so that you will know which drivers need some updating. Once you some results, you can either Google the updates or go to the HP's support website to get the latest updates or you can use RadarSync to update automatically. I hope this helps! David

  • Poor Sound Quality in Windows XP SP3

    Hello,
    I have installed the latest Realtek HD audio codec driver, but the internal speakers still have terrible sound quality, it seems kind of hollow/tinny. Meanwhile, the sound quality coming through headphones is fine.
    Does anyone have a solution? I've seen threads on other forums, but none have a solution, or otherwise the solution is to install the latest driver (which I don't think applies to me)
    Thanks!

    Same problem here, I have a 24" iMac. I do however also manage a (2009) 21.5" iMac, though. Which doesn't have this poor audio problem in bootcamp.
    I found the difference to be that the two have different sound hardware. The 21.5" iMac has like Cirrus Logic something or other sound and my 24" iMac has the RealTek HD sound.
    Just plug in external speakers to the headphone jack, I guess. I have not found a solution either.
