Sync of recorded audio and FLV video.

Hey guys,
I'm having a major problem. I'm trying to create a project
that involves recording audio based on a video and then playing
them back together in sync. The recording is sent to a Flash Media
Server and the video comes from a local file.
When recording starts I create the netConnection and
netStream respectively. I then create an onStatus even for the net
stream so that what the status code == NetStream.Publish.Start the
video begins to play.
Then when I play back the recording I create an inStream for
the newly recorded file to play through. Once its onStatus event ==
"playing" the my local video file starts.
To me this all seems logical but there are obvious sync
issues. I've managed to capture a delay between my initial call for
my outStream to publish and the time that it actually sends the
onStatus event. I've tried thinking of ways to use this data to
affect my playback but nothing has worked right now.
Hopefully someone out there has worked on a similar project
or at least has experience with these types of things.
Thanks so much in advance,
Mr. PinC

I have been searching the internet for days on a simple, standard answer for my problem. I am shooting video using a Canon 5d mark II and recording audio separately using an Olympus LS-10. I want to sync the audio from the Olympus to the video from the 5d mark II. I am editing with Final Cut Express 4. When I try doing it manually, the audio from the Olympus seems to be in between frames and I cannot line them up exactly.
I exported the movie files through MPEG Streamclip to Apple DV/DVCPRO-NTSC, 720x480(DV-NTSC). I converted the audio files in Itunes to AIFF files at 48khz and 16 bit stereo.
What are the exact settings I should be using for the video and audio?
Do I need to change the frame rate of the video?
Do I need to change the sample rate or speed of the audio?
Is there a way to slide the audio clip in between frames?
Any advice is much appreciated. Thank you in advance for any help!
I suspect a 44.1 crept in during transcoding.

  • Syncing externally recorded audio and video workflow

    I'm looking for advice to sync externally recorded dialogue to video, exporting them, and importing them back into fcp7.
    I've done this before, but not on this large scale.  I have many clips and I did record audio with the camera as well.
    I know how to sync everything up, I'm mostly looking for the best way to combine the footage and export it without loss of quality.  Also wondering if I can keep the in camera audio AND the externally recorded audio.  So, if at the end of the day, I absolutely need to use one or the other, I can choose which one and hide or delete the other. 
    My questions are...
    1. What's the best way for lossless quality re-exporting and importing for this (some fomat that is still editable)?
    2. Is there a way to keep multiple channels of audio (from the camera and the h4n) or do I have to choose before exporting?
    3. Is there a "batch" way to do this?  Does it consist of making multiple sequences?
    Thanks for your help!!!
    J
    I shot it on a PMW  EX3 and the audio was recorded on an H4N, if that helps.

    1. Why are you re-exporting? No, that's not what you do. You use the MERGE CLIPS command. This will make a NEW clip with the audio and video files merged. Typically you have a slate to sync to, or timecode is jam sync'd so the camera and audio recorder have the same timecode. 
    2. When you merge the clip, all the audio channels will be present.
    3. Sorta. If you get PluralEyes that will automatically sync everything...but will do so by making a sequence with the video and audio.  So a sequence of sync'd audio...not a clip. And if you use the sequence as a source, you need to make sure to use the OVERWRITE WITH SEQUENCE CONTENT mapped to the F keys, otherwise FCP will make those nested clips, and nested clips are not a good thing in this case.

  • I'm trying to record audio and video simultaneously using iMovie and an external mic and the computer is picking up the audio but when I replay the video there is no sound. Any ideas?

    Can't get iMovie to record audio and video at the same time using the built in cam and an external mic.

    iMovie works best with uncompressed audio. If your track is MP3 or AAC, you may get better results by converting your track to the AIFF format and then using that in iMovie.
    You can do this in iTunes. Go to iTunes/Preferences and click the General button. On the General page, click the Import Settings button. Choose IMPORT USING: AIFF ENCODER.
    (note: remember what you changed it from so you can change it back later, before you import another CD)
    Now, in iTunes, select your track. Then click FILE/CREATE NEW VERSION/AIFF VERSION.

  • What is the preferred virus scan program for iphone? I believe that I have a virus. My phone will come on by itself and it appears to be recording audio. I have read about spyware/surveilance viruses that will record audio and take photos.

    My phone is not jailbroken.  I don't know what you mean about hacked.   Maybe it is hacked?   This is what is happening: About three times over the past few months I've noticed that my phone while "off" will come on (light up) and the screen shows an arrow towards the bottom; an arrow such that you would see on various "players" in order to "play" video or audio, I've searched my phone and cannot find any app that produces this particular screen though. Once I pick up the phone when this screen myseriously appears out of nowhere and press anything, it goes away and goes to the standard "slider" front page to unlock the phone.

  • Record audio for the video

    Hi i am trying to see if there is some way to record audio like with the audio recoreder they sell for previous models but the thing is that it does not work with the video ipod
    so how do you record audio and speeches ect so i can do pod casts and stuff?
    also trying to record the my band on it

    Do you mean you want to use the iPod as an audio recorder?
    Currently it is not possible as there are no compatible microphones.
    There are a few in the works by other companies, but as of yet, they have no firm release date (Spring).

    Try arming the audio tracks, select one of the tracks, then while holding down the shift key, select the midi track you want to record, arming the "r" on the midi track. Press "record".....

  • I am using MTS files.  They load in PE fine. The problem is when I try to play them, I just get audio and no video.  I have installed the latest updates.  Is there a CODEX that I need.

    I have windows 8.1.  I have downloaded the mts files from my video camera onto my hard drive.  I have loaded a subset of these mts files into premier elements and they show up fine.  I can bring them to the time line without a problem.  The issue is that when I click on them, I only get the audio and no video.  Normally when you click a thumbnail, the picture shows in the large screen.  That screen remains blank.

    John - thanks for your response
    1. Graphics Adapter:  Nvidia GeForce GTX 650
    2. My driver before you response was 3/4/14   9.18.13.3523.  I went to Nvidia and downloaded and installed latest driver 7/2/14  9.18.13.4052
    3. Rebooted and checked APE and no change in the problem. Still doesn't show video when I double click an thumbnail or if I single click it does not show a video image in the large screen.
    4. Some things I have done to try to resolve the problem.
         a. Searched this forum for a similar problem.  I didn't see one.
         b. Did a web search to see if I could find a solution outside this forum
         c Went into "edit" and tried some changes in project preferences and setting to see if that would make a difference
         d. Tried to contact Adobe support to speak to a person but that seemed difficult and could never figure out how to do it.
    5. I have always loaded AVI clips into this program and this is the first time I have tried MTS files. When I opened the new project, the program notified that I had to change something??? to load an MTS file and asked me if I wanted the program to do this for me.  I said yes and here I am.   I seem so close to making it work.   Thanks

  • Downloaded a movie (mpeg-4) from youtube and I only have audio and no video.  it plays on another pc but not this one.  please help.

    Hi,
    I downloaded the latest free version of quicktime.  I am trying to play a movie (mpeg-4) that was downloaded from youtube.  It plays fine on my other pc, but I only get audio and no video when I open it on this pc. It shows up like static lines on a tv that has bad reception.  Can anyone offer some suggestions please?  I need to play it on thislaptop computer as I require it for a school presentation.  Thank you.

    Open your QuickTime control panel (either via the Control panels, or by going "Edit > Preferences > QuickTime Preferences" in the Quicktime Player). In the Advanced tab, uncheck Enable Direct3D video acceleration:
    ... and click OK. Quit and restart the QuickTime Player prior to checking to see if the settings change has had any effect.

  • Changed TV out to off but ipod still only plays audio and no video

    Just recently my ipod decided not to play video. All the videos in the video folders are gone and now appear in the music folder. Even the video podcasts no longer appear in the video podcast folder. I have changed the TV to out to off and still it continues to do the same thing. I am not sure what happened, I don't believe I changed any settings or anything. I would hate to reset the ipod and lose everything. Need help, thanks.

  • I shot video on a Panasonic P2 and I'm trying to import the MXF files to Final Cut Pro but when I try to import, the only thing that imports is a blurry image of each clip. There's no audio and no video...how can I import MXF files into Final Cut Pro?

    So im safer using footage that is remotely being pulled from iphoto...
    vs
    using footage that is imported into FCP from imovie?
    Is there anything i can do in fcp to make this footage more reliable or safer or more stable as i pull remotely from iphoto?

  • Audio (and some video) dropping out export

    I've created an project with short video/audio clips sampled to produce "music". It plays OK in FCPX, but when I export it (H.264, 720p, Apple Devices, 44.1) as an MP4, some of the audio (and some video) drops out. That is, it does not show up in the exported (aka "Shared") movie file.
    There are about 7-8 things (tracks) going on at once, maximum.
    Any ideas what to do to fix this?
    Thanks!

  • Recording Audio and Audio Instrument Tracks Simultaneously?

    Hi all,
    sometimes i'll leave an audio track armed (which my synth is hooked up to), while playing keys on an audio instrument track, and it usually creates some incredible textures. Every time I try to record the two at the same time, it never works. Is it in any way possible to record audio and virtual instrument tracks at the same time? Would it matter that I have the same synth hooked up as both (I use audio tracks for the synth, and MIDI for the virtual instruments)? Many thanks!

    Thanks for the responses! I'm actually able to arm both an audio and a virtual instrument track at the same time, and I hear both playing over each other. But as soon as I begin recording, I notice that only the virtual instrument track is recording what i'm playing. Any way around this?
