Sync Issue in DVDSP

My source is a true 24fps file (NOT 23.98!) from Avid.
When I used compressor to create a 23.98 MPEG-2 file, I noticed that the picture would occasionally jitter. After looking in the Compressor manual, on page 190 I saw,
"NOTE: If your source video has a frame rate of 24.00 fps rather than 23.98 fps,
Compressor skips one out of every 1000 source frames. If the 24p source video is
23.98 fps, Compressor transcodes all source frames, without skipping (or repeating) any of them."
Oh great, that's expected behavior. So I open up the 24.00 fps QuickTime in Cinema Tools, conform it to 23.98, and put it back through Compressor.
Bingo! No more skipped frames.
But now the audio is running at 47.952 kHz, and when I put it into DVDSP, it starts running at 48 kHz, throwing everything out of sync, eventually. This happens with both AIFF and AC3's.
Are these my options - skipping one out of every 1000 frames, or out of sync audio? Any ideas on what I can do?
I'm working on a 90 film, so the sync issues are severe at the end, and trying a bunch of different things is very time consuming.
Thanks for your help!

I'm guessing by the lack of responses that this really is a complex issue with no simple answer. From what I've learned thus far, here are my options:
Instead of using Cinema Tools to slow the picture down to 23.98 from 24, I could use compressor to do a frame rate conversion from 24 to 23.98. However, this option degrades the picture, and sometimes leaves trails / ghosting during quick movement.
Re-conform the film at 23.98 instead of at 24. This option is a lot of work.
Use Avid or some other program to slow down the audio by .1%. However, when I do this in Avid with AudioSuite, the picture is still 3 frames off by the end of the movie. Does anyone have a recommendation for a better program to use for an audio speed change?
Use Avid to lay the audio off to a tape, then digitize the same tape into a 23.98 or 29.97 project. I can't think of why this wouldn't work, and this is the option I'm trying now.
Does anyone have any other options, or advice on how to proceed?
Thanks for taking the time to consider my problem!

DVD Lip-Sync issues on HDTV playback

Hi, was looking for info regarding lip-sync issues after burning a DVD in DVDSP. Playback on a monitor is grand, but playback on two HDTVs have shown the entire DVD, all tracks to be out of Sync by the same time. Is this anything to do with Progressive/interlaced fields? I know that HDTV and AV systems can have issues with the processing of Progressive streams and there can be a delay with the Video which can be adjusted in their system settings but i can't expect 1000+ people to all change their settings to accommodate my DVD! lol
I shot on DSLR 25P, edited in Premiere in 25P, exported then i imported into Compressor and dropped the DVD: Best Quality 90min preset on it (MPEG-2 Video, 720 x 576 (1,048 x 576), Dolby Digital Pro 2.0 at 192kps). Then imported them into DVDSP and burned the DVD. I can't see in the preferences or anywhere in DVDSP whether this is a Progressive or Interlaced project so i don't know what my final output is onto DVD. Perhaps it just follows what is imported as an asset and im assuming at the moment to change that i have to change Progressive to Interlaced somewhere ealier in the workflow.
Because I shot on DSLR 25P, edited in 25P i exported, after much trial and error, the files from Premiere as : Match Source HI-Bitrate:
H.264 (as source)
25P AVC Coding,
1,920 x 1,080 AAC,
Square Pixels (1.0)
VBR 2 Pass
48000 Hz, Stereo (L R),
6.32 Mbit/s
(For some reason when i tried to use Adobe Media Encoder for batch exporting nothing happened after it opened, so i chose all my settings from Premiere export and did all the files individually).
So just to re-cap, why am i getting Lip Sync issues when burned to DVD and played back on an HDTV? and how can i correct this issue?
Kind regards,
Sai Kelly
For anyone interested in the background:
The reason i chose the above settings was because I was having severe issues in quality of the .M2V file for the green screen sequences during interviews, particularly with people's hair when i chose to export from Premiere or Media Encoder with any kind of DVD settings. I spent a few days trying different types of exporting, methods and presets. This was the best version and i stopped once i acheived this result. Might have been simpler to continue to try a 720p version of the above before importing to Compressor. Here is the issue, you can see the 'snowy' hair problem:
some of the different settings i tried:
Ignore 'Quality 50' below, i changed it to 80 or 100 after the screenshot and before i clicked Export.
The "Match Source HI-Bitrate" gave me the best results (blue background re-added in After Effects):
Kind regards,
Sai Kelly

Hi Ann,
Thank you for your opinion, though i disagree.
As i said above I did try exporting directly from Premiere as Mpeg2 in many versions when i was attempting to solve the issue by changing the Bit Rate. But to no avail. The above screen shots were attempts to export a 'highest quality option' for re-encoding with a software designed specifically to compress. I don't like re-encoding as much as anyone else, but this was the only option left as Media Encoder didn't help and without beginning again and using Encore. The same would have had to happen with Encore anyway as there appears to be no Dynamic Link in Premiere Pro CC to Encore as there wasn't yet a version of Encore CC.....just checking there....After Effects and Premiere have new updates just released Media Encoder CC 7.1 which i will check out but still nothing from Encore.
I don't think you can help me with this particular issue, Ann and i'd like to hear from some other voices. Unless you have any thoughts or suggestions that will help with the Lip-Sync issue.
Thanks again,
Sai

Help Audio Sync Issues.

DVD Studio Pro 4.x. Using Quicktimes of :30 each with the DV-NTSC codec.
Created a menu that has 10 categories of commercials. In the "financial" item, when clicked on, it goes the first commercial...the end action is to go to the next commercial and so on. The final commercial in the series returns to the main menu.
All the different categories worked fine except for one in the financial, and I couldn't figure it out, so I took it out. THE KEY-->once I took that spot out, the sync issue cascaded to another piece of video (chapter/track). No matter how many variations of disconnecting files, deleting files all together and re-importing, deleting rendered MPEG and AIFF files worked. Finally I gave up and edited the 9 spots together in Final Cut and created one long spot. Of course, that worked fine. No sync issues... Until my boss asked me to remove one spot from one of the other categories...then the whole sync thing happened again in that other category! ***!?!?!?
Would I be better off squishimatizing the files in Compressor first and bringing them in seperately into DVDSP? I am probably doing something very obvious that I shouldn't be... pppppppplease help me to determine what my idiocy is.

What format are you using in iTunes to play them back? Are these the exact same files as the one, you are playing back in Quicktime 7?

Sync Issue After Compressing MPEG-2

My source is a true 24fps file (NOT 23.98!) from Avid.
When I used compressor to create a 23.98 MPEG-2 file, I noticed that the picture would occasionally jitter. After looking in the Compressor manual, on page 190 I saw,

But now the audio is running at 47.952 kHz, and when I put it into DVDSP, it starts running at 48 kHz, throwing everything out of sync. This happens with both AIFF and AC3's.
Basically, the problem is that I'm slowing down the video by .1%, so now I have to slow the audio down, too.
I tried using both Avid and FCP to slow the audio down by .1%, then re-exporting at 48 kHz, and I also tried laying the audio off to tape, and then digitizing it into a 29.97 project. But when I'd export the audio and put it into DVDSP, it's still a few frames off by the end.
This makes me think that maybe Compressor or Cinema Tools is changing the frame rate to 23.98 instead of a true 23.976 fps. Can anyone confirm or deny?
I'm working on a 90 film, so the sync issues are quite noticeable by the end, and trying a bunch of different things is very time consuming. Any workflow advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your help!

My iPad under 4.2.1 is working fine, but my iPhone 4 is messed up. After the upgrade, my MobileMe settings were just plain wrong (they were working prior to the upgrade). I had to delete and re-add MobileMe, and now my contacts are not updating on the iPhone. The Calendar was slow, but it did eventually update. I've tried rebooting the device, stopping and starting contact sync through MobileMe, with no luck so far.

More Aperture/iPad syncing issues

Each time I create a new project or album in Aperture, I have trouble getting the images to the iPad when I sync. I sometimes need to sync several times until the images are recognized and imported to iPad. I do have the albums designated manually, rather than all, which means I have to sync and then sync again after I check the checkbox for the new album. I understand that, but sometimes I have to go back into Aperture to make sure the previews are updated. If I choose to update the previews for a project, Aperture will usually tell me that they're already up to date, but often they will not show up on the iPad, even after I check the appropriate box for the album in iTunes. Sometimes I get good results if I delete the previews and regenerate them in Aperture.
The second problem is the sort order. Even if I have "sort by filename" selected in Aperture, they do not show up in this order on the iPad--despite what the support article says about this. They appear to only show up in Date order. I've tried repeatedly resetting the sort order, but it does not change on the iPad. Sometimes I have to delete the album from the iPad, (uncheck the album in iTunes and sync again), then recheck it and sync yet another time. This does not always work, however.
It is very frustrating. The interface between Aperture and the iPad is very wonky. I often have to sync repeatedly, just to get the photos on the iPad and even then they're usually in the wrong order.
Aperture appears to have two types of previews: "previews" and "sharing previews," but "sharing previews" don't seem to appear in the documentation. I've noticed that, even when Aperture says the previews are up to date, when I exit the program, it will sometimes (but, maddeningly, not always), give the message, "updating sharing previews" before quitting. I cannot figure out how to force this, however. Sometimes opening and closing Aperture several times will cause it to do this, but I can't be sure.
iTunes seems to have its own process in which it "optimizes" images for importing to the iPad. Like Aperture's mysterious "sharing previews," "optimizing" does not show up in the iTunes documentation or help files.
This process either needs to be improved, or at least documented so users can understand how to avoid these problems.

1. Some people have reported slow syncing with anything but the iPad's own USB cable (e.g. using a US cable from an iPhone/iPod). Try different cables
2. More work - disable iTunes syncing completely, then re-enable a bit at a time, e.g. one movie at a time, one playlist at a time, one photo album at a time. There are periodic reports of syncing issues caused by a bit of media that's been corrupted, and this (tedious) approach allows you to identify where the problem might be.
3. If that fails, do a clean restore back to factory settings, then progressively re-enable syncing as above.
Hope this helps

Sync issues after iOS 8 update

Hi,
I have an iPhone 5S, 64 GB. After updating to iOS8 I got sync issues. "Waiting for changes to be applied" never disappeared. Also the storage usage in iTunes 11.4 is wrong. iTunes said I had 6GB free, when I had in fact 20GB. I restored the phone back to firmware, restored the backup. All was fine until I made setting changes in iTunes what I want to sync. The same issue in iTunes is back again. I already deleted my voice memos as someone recommended in another threat but that didn't help.
Any ideas how I can solve the problem, would be appreciated. Thank you!

Disappearing Contacts, Mobile Me Sync Issues, Calendar crash-Answers??

I'll try to keep this post brief but hopefully it will help provide some possible answers for frustrated users experiencing the random complete wipe out of all contacts and calendar data when syncing with mobile me using either push or fetch. After several weeks of experiencing these random sync issues and spending several hours over several days between tech support calls with iPhone then Mobile Me support and then finally a genius bar appointment where the genius said he didn't have a clue and simply offered to replace my phone.
The next morning, SAME PROBLEMS... and through it all NO ONE could tell me why my sync was so randomly unreliable. Every other day for no apparent reason, my phone would suddenly lose all contacts and/or calendar data. (A few thousand contacts and two years of calendar data). It was both frustrating and strange—even stranger that Apple techs had no clue why and seemed to think no one else was having this issue.
I tried everything - complete restores, resets, deleting and re-adding the mobileme account, etc., etc., etc. One tech support person finally said, "good luck..." The others kept handing me off the higher levels of support... until finally they just said "we don't know why this is happening." I was waiting for someone to just say, "Look, we have issues with mobile me, so hang in there and eventually it will work." I can be patient and I still think the iphone is the greatest invention in recent years. But everybody I talked with at Apple seemed to think this should be working flawlessly.
I also started having a crash on the calendar anytime I tried to see the list view for "all calendars." This was frustrating because that's the best feature of the calendar app!
I was prepared to just return to syncing with my computer and wait for the software to improve between the phone and mobile me. Finally, last night I tried a few things that seem to be working... and for the first full day, mobile me is actually useful to me today. (my fingers are crossed!)
Here's what I did.
1. I minimized the number of calendars I was syncing - I have no idea if this affected the sync, but I was syncing eight calendars, now I'm down to four. (You can easily export a calendar and import those events back into a different calendar.)
2. I did a complete restore of the phone (not from a back up) and the VERY FIRST THING, I added mobile me and synced only the calendar (set to push.) This cleared up the random calendar crash in list view and also mobile me was pushing data rather reliably. After a few moments my entire calendar was on the phone and worked perfectly. New events were transferred quickly back and forth.
3. I then chose to sync my contacts through the computer rather than over the air. I fear that the contact sync was somehow messing up the whole communication process between the phone and the cloud. Someone suggested that the number of "groups" in contacts might have an impact on the sync issues as well. I didn't need my contacts to sync with the urgency of "push" so this works for me. Plus I have a lot of contacts and it's just faster over the cable.
4. I then GREATLY reduced the number of apps on my phone. I originally had about 27 and I only reinstalled 9 of them. I did this ONE AT A TIME - starting with the most necessary and useful... and after each install, I checked the functionality of the calendar and mobile me. No problems. Perhaps I was having an app conflict?
5. Then I reinstalled the rest of my content - music, podcasts, photos. Still no problems.
ONE of these steps actually worked, and I'm not sure which one. My guess is that one or more of my apps was conflicting in some way. OR possibly something with the contact sync... but for the last 24 hours the mobile me calendar sync using push has been consistently reliable and useful. (for the record, mobile me email has always worked perfectly for me.)
No one with tech support ever suggested to me that I could be having an application conflict or any other problems with calendars or contact groups, etc. I've spent many hours on this the past few weeks... and for the first time, my iphone seems to be working with mobile me correctly.
In reading many of these posts, it seems a lot of others are having similar problems... so hopefully these suggestions might be helpful. If you have any thoughts as to which of these solutions was the correct one, I would be interested in hearing your opinion.
Thanks!

Are your Address Book contacts and iCal calendars/calendar events on your Mac synced with your MobileMe online address book and calendar?
When you say this data is not synced with your iPhone, none of your MobileMe online data is transferred to your iPhone, or after the initial transfer of this data to your iPhone when you first turned contacts and calendars for over the air syncing with your MobileMe account on your iPhone, the data is not kept synchronized with the MobileMe "cloud"?

How do I get rid of lip-sync issues with iTunes 10.2.2.12?

Hi Everyone.
Firstly, a very Happy Easter!
I'm having lip-sync issues with iTunes playback on my PC. The video is largely smooth with the occaisional choppiness when the CPU is made to work hard. (Playback on my iPod Touch is fine).
The system stats for my PC are at the bottom of the post.
The sound is produced through a Creative Live Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 card.
Video is through a NVIDIA Geforce 6200 with 512Mb of RAM. (All video and audio drivers are up to date).
The physical set-up is that I have iTunes installed on the C drive and my media installed on an external USB hard-drive.This isn't just a problem with 10.2.2.12 - it's been there for the last few updates.
I suppose my main questions are:
Should iTunes and my media be on the same drive? (Which would mean the external drive as I'm short on space on the C drive).
Is there some combination of settings in QuickTime that will solve this? (I've tried different combinations, but it doesn't really help).
Is the spec (below) of my PC causing any issues.
Here's an Easter Egg for anyone able to help!!
All the best
BandAidUK.

Select *List view* instead of *Album list view*. These are in the View menu or the boxes next to Search, on the right top of iTunes.
and the column next to it with a number in it that I have absolutely no idea what it's for. I want those two columns OUT.
In List view, you can turn off every column (in menu View > View options) except track name.

Having sync issues with Outlook 2011 since upgrading to Mavericks

Hi All,
My work Macbook Pro 13" is having issues syncing my inbox and sent mail automatically. It's a hit or miss if I recieve emails in my inbox in a timely mannor with out pressing the Send/Recive button (even when i press it takes minutes to update). My Sent Items can show up an hour later even if I hit the Send/Recieve button.
All my mail is there and shows up/syncs on my iPhone quickly. I upgraded to Mavericks right when it came out and have only been having these sync issues for the last week or so.
I've cleared my mail cache and that didn't work. My calandar reminders and contacts don't seem to have any issues and no other apps have been preforming slow or strangely.... just my VERY important work email. My tech guys are stumped and I wanted to try you guys before they do a major rehaul of my system
Thanks!

A new Outlook Identity will most likely solve your issues. If you have any data under "On My Computer" folders, see this link:
How to move your data to a new Identity
BTW, how much free space on your drive? Use Disk Utility in Applications/Utilities to find this info. You need a minimum of 10% free but 15-20% is recommended.
Outlook gets very sluggish when you are low on disk space. If you have a bunch of older Identities from previous rebuilds you can delete these to help free up space.

ICal refuses to finish 'restore' ; trying to resolve sync issues.

trying to fix sync issues.
using missing sync.
everything worked perfectly for a ling long time before i thought it'd be cute to go in and put birthdays into addressbook, and select the option in iCal preferences to add those events to my calendar.
EVERYTHING has gone to **** since then.
the missing sync guys recommend i backup and restore addressbook and iCal.
addressbook did fine.
when i select the saved ICal database file (icbu) from my desktop, it will not complete.
what gives?
i'm trying to do this to fix another problem.
its like every step is making a new issue.
i am getting close to the edge guys...
pleaes help.
thanks!
c
(overall problem is that i cannot even get missing sync to overwrite my blackberry 8830 now.
for months, iCal, Addressbook, and Tasks synced perfectly.
all was well until i screwed with this stupid Birthday feature.)

also, i've already gone into iSync and cleared sync history....that didnt seem to affect anything.
thanks in advance for any insights at all.

IPhone and Windows 7 64 Bit - syncing issues

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone is able to help. I have updated to Windows 7 and am having problems syning my iPhone. It comes up with a multitude of errors but the most common is:
'The iPhone "Michael's iPhone" can not be syned. The required file can not be found.
I have restored the iPhone and after it resets, it sits at the Setup Window in iTunes for ages, then clicks over, starts syncing (it is doind that now) but also displays the error. Will be interesting to see if it actually finishes the sync and to see if the apps work on the phone.
I have also removed iTunes, Quicktime, Mobile App Supprt, Apple Software Updater, Bonjour and reinstalled and still the sync issues coninue. I also ran the diagnostic tool in iTunes on syncing and detecting the iPhone and it reports everything is ok.

Well, the new gigabyte bios fixed the issue.

Hello surig84,
Thank you for providing the details of the issue you are experiencing when syncing your iPad. I recommend reviewing the following article specifically the section titled "Authorize using the correct account name."
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

Like many others, I got the new iPad 3 and couldn't sync all of my photos. The best i got was 1,000 out of 15,000 to work. Today Apple released iTunes 10.6.1.7 and said the syncing issue was resolved. I erased my ipod cache and hit sync. Still locked.

Like many others, I got my new IPad 3 and could not sync all of my photos. The highest I got was 1,000 out of 15,000. Today Apple released iTunes 10.6.1.7 that , among other things, said it fixed the sync issue with photos. I excitedly, erased my ipod cache and hit sync. It looked like it was working, but just like before iTunes locked. This time at 2,244 of 15,000. Anybody have an idea of how to fix this?

What's the capacity of your iPad?
iTunes needs up to 3x of the actual size of the files you want to sync during the sync process. And syncing 15.000 photos could cross the size of the available free space on your device.
Don't forget that the pictures are now optimized for the retina display, so the size increases for each of them.

Quick Fix to iTouch Syncing issues

I too have seen the problems mentioned in the forums about the ipod touch syncing issues with the january software upgrade option... And i have seen the quick fix that allows you to get it to sync. I will post it here so that eveybody doesn't have to scroll down to the bottom of a topic or search through topics. Please don't reply to keep this a clean topic so others can easily access the information.
*Disconnect iPod Touch from computer.*
*Disconnect computer from internet.*
*Reconnect iPod Touch to computer.*
*Start syncing editing ... whatever*
*Reconnect to internet*
This should hopefully allow you to start syncing again, it is not the ideal solution and I do hope the apple engineers can find a permanent solution. And thanks to the guys who posted the original instructions, I do not in any way take credit for the instructions, only making them more accessible.

I REALLY appreciate your help. Your fix worked and relieved a lot of frustration. I have HP everything (Printer, lap-top, desk tops) and was upset there wasn't an obvious "contact" option in the support web-site. I knew if I was allowed to describe the problem, a bright person like you would respond.

IOS 6 and iTunes 10.7 WiFi Sync issues

WiFi sync works for a day or two then from the device is just keeps saying Looking for Mario Michela's iMac... I restart iMac, reboot iPhone and or iPad. connect via usb cable, uncheck WiFi Sync (apply), recheck WiFi Sync. It will work again for 2 or 3 days. Then starts to fail again.
I've tried using Eithernet and wifi on the mac (no difference)
I've tried turning off the firewall (no difference)
I've reset all setting on the iPhone (no difference)
I've reset SyncServices Folder (/System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/resetsy nc.pl full) -(No difference)
I've called Apple Care 3 times, I keep getting passed around because sync is between product departments.
iOS doesn't support desktop applications, iMac doesn't support mobile devices..
I'm hoping iTunes 11 fixes this issue.. This issue didn't occur prior to iTunes 10.7.

I am getting sync issues too (although on OSX) - seems like others are getting issues too:
