Sound with video transitions.

Hey, I'm using DVD Studio Pro 3 and I have a video transition for a button between a menu and a track. Now, the video I am using for the transition has sound, however there is not sound in the transition on the dvd.
Can you not have sound, or is there something I can do to fix this?
Thanks.

No probs.
What you need to do is make a video that looks like one menu is transitioning to the next. Let's say Menu 1 is a .psd (photoshop file) and Menu 2 is a different .psd. Take these files into FCP (or another editing program), perform your groovey transition from Menu 1 to Menu 2, lay your audio underneath it, then export as a .mov, or if you're happy using compressor export it as a .m2v and .ac3
Then bring your new video into DVDSP and place it into a new menu, lets call it Menu 1>2 (you could also place into a Track but in menus all the User Operations are already disabled).
Now, with the button that takes you from Menu 1 to Menu 2, remove the transition that you had chosen from the button inspector and simply make the target fro the button the new menu Menu 1>2, when this plays it will look just like your Menu 1 but it will play the transition you have created with the audio, then set the end jump of this menu to Menu 2. You don't put any buttons or anything into Menu 1>2, its just there as a bridge between Menu 1 and Menu 2, and there you have it.
The up side of this is that you won't get long pause that DVDSP often has when using the preset transitions. The downside is you need to create all your menu transitions this way if you're using audio which can be a lot of work if you're moving between a lot of menus and submenus.
I hope that makes sense - if not, let me know which bits are foggy.
Cheers

When importing Abode premiere footage with video transitions they get wipped out :-(

Afternoon from York UK, (USING LATEST VERSIONS OF ALL SOFTWARE)
Ok here's today's stress.... I build i video clip with Video transitions, dissolve dip to white to be specific. When i imported the project into After effects all transitions are lost :-( I'm so very confused.
To help here is a screen shot showing the transitions effects exist in the layers but on ram preview and export to mpeg no video transitions show. It is as if i added no transition effects between the clips!

Thanks in advance,

Thanks Rick,
But I'm such a noob at Ae i've little idea on how to go about "Dynamically linked AE..." I appreciate now Ae is a technical tool which is going to take time to master which is difficult when I had yesterday to send the completed video to the client. Big problems for me are getting generated when I try to import Pr with Ae. Case in point is my Ae created animation being so much bigger than my imported video clip creating this effect: http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc53/zymurgy_bucket/misfit-video-clip-langleys-glitch_z pseec728d8.jpg
Spent all day trying to fix this but no joy, I have today to fix this, wish me luck ;-)

How to combine sound with video to an AVI Using IMAQ?

I need to combine sound with video I capture and write it out as an AVI. Is there anyway in Labview to combine sound with and AVI? Or an easy to use third party product?

Hello,
The AVI tools that are provided with Vision allow for data to be added to your video. Sound information can be stored this way, but if you are looking for a way to add audio support to your video (such that it will play the sound file when the video is played in Windows Media Player or other applications) you may want to look into finding a shareware or freeware product that can accomplish this. LabVIEW does not have tools specifically targetted to this operation.
Good luck,
Robert

Why can't I import sound with video into iMovie from digital camera?

This is disturbing. I have a digital video camera that took great video + sound. I import into iMovie (using my DV cable that came with the camera) and get video but no sound.
Now, in the past the sound came in, but no longer. Any and all advise is requested. I have to make number videos of lectures starting Wednesday evening and have to be able to provide video with audio.
Thanks.

Try importing video shot with the camera's internal
microphone. If that doesn't work either, the mic is
not the problem.
I have no problem importing sound with video when using the internal video camera mic. No problem (other than sound quality issues with the speaker being 40 feet away from the camera's internal mic!
But I can play back the video made with the external mic in the camera and the sound is stunningly clear, crisp and loud. It's just a matter of getting it out of the camera into my Mac. I don't think it's the microphone; it must be the computer.
I just find it sad to believe that Apple's software is so limited--even in Final Cut Express HD.

Problem with sound, and problem with video transitions

For some reason my audio isnt locked with my video anymore so when I move a clip the audio doesnt follow does anyone know how to fix that?
Also, when I put in video transitions instead of just switching from the first clip to the second clip it flashes an image from other pieces of footage while transitioning and I need to figure out how to fix that too.
Anyone know how to fix these?
thanks

Thanks i got the audio problem fixed.
When I open up final cut it says some of the media has been disconnected but it then says I can't reconnect it or something like that, I don't know if that effects the transitions. I split up a lot of footage and rearranged it and for one of the places where it flashes a clip it shows one of the pieces of footage that I had deleted because it had a glitch and the other places I noticed it it had random clips from throughout the project, like a flash of an interview that happens way later in the film. So it is random clips that are in the film and even clips that I deleted.

Issue with Video Transitions

While insert various video transitions last night I kept finding that, on certain transitions, a cross dissolve or fad in/fade out transition would only be be 0.1 second in duration (while all other transitions could be inserted and adjusted without problem). When I tried to amend the length of the transition (by clicking on the transition itself and then trying to amend by stretching it or manually typing in a new duration length) nothing seemed to work and it stubbornly stayed at 0.1 second.
What am I doing wrong?

you do the beginner's mistake #1, we all did.. me too:
you have to let 'flesh' at the clips you add to the timeline, by setting in/out points.
illu:
#1 shows the actual 'cut' in timeline
#2 shows, that there's some more material from clip#1 'under' clips #2..
because: we set an out-point (#3) a few secs before the raw-material ends (#4)
when you add clips to timeline in full length, there isn't any material for a dissolve.
totally different, if you use iMovie (=consumer/beginner tool): it 'grabs' the needed frames&secs from both clips, in result the project gets shorter ( ! ) .. now, try to edit to music with such a concept..
set in-/out-points in preview - and you can add any dissolve..
you beat my by 2mins, Alchroma!
but my 'painting' needed a little longer than your two lines of text

Audio with video transitions?

Is it possible to include audio when using selfmade video transitions on buttons?

Welcome to the boards
No real way to add audio if you are using transitions in buttons (i.e., meaning you are using inspector to set a transition for a button in the inspector, including a transition you add there). Buttons over video can sort of do it, but there will be a gap in the audio. If there is silence in the menu (using BOV) and you jump to a section of the track for the transition, audio can be there. (In the transition section) and you will not hear a change, since going from silence to sound, but when moving around the DVD goes to different sections and there will be a pause.

Ni sound with videos

hi, I just started with my new Ipod but i got no sound with my videos. I see the posts here and try different convertions but nothing seems to be useful. any advice someone? they're all in m4v. thanks.

Yes I can confirm the same problem with my ipod after upgrading to firmware 1.1 (for the radio remote control support). With my ipod the problem consists only with longer movie files. Short files, such as musicvideos are played with out problem but a movie has the described "30 seconds with sound - freeze - rest without sound" problem!! Very interesting for me: sometimes, after restarting the movies several times the movie continues to play without problem (in average in 1 of 9 cases ) - looks to me as a timing problem.
I really do hope that Apple is solving this annoying issue immediately, since otherwise they will not sell any radio remotes

No sound with video conference. Mics and speakers work fine however.

Howdy
My buddy and I were trying to set up a video chat on our new MacBook Pros, but there was no sound. Video came through great though.
We know our microphone and speaker settings work fine though because we were able to set up an audio conference. The audio came through loud and clear for the audio connection. For some reason, however, when we connected a video conference, the sound went away. The connection doctor said audio quality was at zero for both of us during a video connection, but the audio quality was up near 100% during an audio connection.
Furthermore, that same day I was successfully using video conference chats at work where the sound came through fine. The online help only gives tips for how to adjust your microphone and speaker settings, but I know that's not our problem.
I'm logged onto iChat using an AIM account, and my buddy was using a .Mac account. I don't know if that would have anything to do with it, but we're going to try again this weekend after I get my .Mac account up and running.
Anyone have other suggestions for what we can try?
Thanks for taking the time to help!

Hey Tony
Thanks for the tips! My buddy and I tried to connect again this evening, but we still have the same problem. Video by itself just fine and audio by itself, but not the two together. We tried using AIM acount to AIM account and then .Mac account to .Mac account. We changed all the settings you sugested, but still no luck.
Any other ideas of what we might try?

Problem with video transitions folder locked

When I click on the video transitions (in effects tab) and try to drag a video transition like a dissolve into the timeline a small x appears and it wont allow me to add a transition. I noticed the folder symbol next to the video transitions has a lock symbol on it. How do I unlock the video transitions so I can use them again? I've tried clicking on the folder but nothing happens to the lock.

The x you're seeing doesn't mean the folder is locked; it means (usually) that there aren't enough handles on the media to sustain the transition. "Handles" are the frames BEFORE an IN point and AFTER an OUT point that get added to your clip whenever you add a transition. If there aren't enough frames, the transition cannot be applied properly. Look up HANDLES in the manual for more details.

Sound with videos on ipod 60gb

Alright, so when i first bought this ipod, the sound worked beautifully. I converted my files to mp4's and they everything was butter. But when i updated the software, the sound stopped working so well. Now it only plays the first 30 seconds or so with sound, then it freezes and stops playing sound, but the video still plays. I figure that its the software, but i really dont feel re-setting factory settings and having to re-download all these songs and videos. Has this happened to anyone else, and if so, how did you fix it??? THANKS

Sound with video in iTunes but not on Apple TV

I use EyeTV from Elgato to record TV programs, strip out commercials, and convert for use on Apple TV. This has worked beautifully except for the last time. I can watch the TV show with sound using iTunes on my Mac. However, there is no sound viewing the same file on Apple TV. This is true only for this one file (so far). I have tried both streaming the video and syncing it--no sound either way. Any ideas?
Fred Stinson

Me again,
Have an update to the problem. Think I have caused the issue when I copied my files to a new PC. When I go into itunes and select TV programmes, all of the programmes appear.
When I select the Itunes store and under the Quick Links selet "Purchased" and TV programmes, the programmes I cannot see in itunes are also not being displayed here.
Suspect this was my error - can anyone advise ?

Recording Sound with video

I was previously able to record sound at the same time that I captured video, now I can't. I use the on board camera to capture video and an external mic. I need to know how to capture video and sound simultaneously.

Go to your Sound in the System Preferences and see if it is set up properly and you can test the microphone there. Then open up iChat prefernces, Audio/Video and see how that is set up and see if your audio works as you speak there. there have been some problems with that, and i think you fix it by resetting the PRAM or NVRAM

Why do I get a black screen and no sound with video in iTunes 8?

Just downloaded the new iTunes. I don't have any video playback when I click preview in the store. No video when I try to play anything that I've already downloaded. The play cursor moves but I have a black screen with no sound. I'm hoping this is just a temporary glitch.
Any recommendations? I'm using the latest version of Leopard 10.5.4 on an Intel iMac.
PS: This same question is posted in iTunes download category too.

Great to have the Video back
