Timeline shows no name of audio tracks

I just switched from Premiere Elements to Pro and have some problems ...
One of the biggest: In the Timeleline Pro isn't showing any names on the audio tracks!
Meaning in the video track I see something like "example.mp4 [V]" and in the corresponding audio track I see just the "fx" icon.
I expanded view and zoom and tracks and everything, unlocked the audio-video-nesting - nevertheless there is no name in the audio tracks to be seen!
Because of this I get confusued which audio track belong to which video, so it's really important for me to get this names in the Timeline!
Thanks in advance!

WON-DER-FUL !!!!!
Thanks a thousand time – as easy as it is if you know it, as much I couldn't find it
Thanks again, you helped me a lot with that!!!

IPhone 5 not showing artist name under each track in album view page like it used to

Hi. My iphone 5 is upto date software wise etc. When I go into music and select an album I get the track listing but no artist name under each track. All my music is correctly coded and it used to show up previously. Is this a change in the software or am I missing something? It's really annoying if you open a compilation as you have a track list but no way of knowing the artist unless you play the track.
Please help.

Hello Jimmy362,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Another poster on the Apple Support Communities had the same question about music on their iPod, and marked the post as solved:

In Photoshop CC timeline, when I add an audio track photoshop CC either quits working or it skips to the end of the video clip. If I just put in audio it works fine. If I just put in clips or pics it works fine, but now when audio is added

When I try to use the timeline portion of photoshop, I can't get the audio to work with my clips. I can get audio to work fine when using just audio, but the minute I try to add audio to a set of clips either photoshop quits working or it skips to the last clip in my show. I don't understand why this happens. I am using the same track each time. Very frustrating.

Please keep this in mind next time you post. Thank you.

Can you name video/audio tracks in FCP?

instead of V1, V2, V3... can you title or name these tracks?

I used to think it would be cool, too, way back when Media 100 was Avid's main competition. But M100 talked us out of it.
It's only a good option if the names carry through to EDL and other output options from FCP (or Avid, whatever an Avid is).
I've worked on huge audio projects, 24-30 tracks. I've never been particularly lost and I've never worked on a system where naming the tracks was possible. So it has never really struck me as useful or desirable.
Personally, I'd like to see tons of things FIXED before Apple starts adding more features and options but be sure to drop this request into the FCP FEEDBACK folder.

Premiere only showing and playing 1 Audio Track when my file has 2

I recorded some gameplay while also talking through my mic.
When I play the .avi file in VLC I'm able to switch between 2 tracks.
Track 1 has my gameplay sound and track 2 has my voice commentary.
When I place my file into Premiere it only shows and plays the gameplay sound.
How do I show both tracks in Premiere so I can edit them separately?

I got MediaInfo to work, so here's the screenshot (:

Audio Tracks Disappear When Zooming on Timeline

It's very strange, but whenever I zoom in on a certain portion of a timeline I'm working on, audio tracks warp, change, duplicate, or disappear altogether. See below for a video:
Does anyone have any idea as to what this could be? Thanks in advance for all and any help!

It's actually a feature film I've been working on for quite a while – most likely several CC versions back, maybe even from CS6 – sorry I can't remember off the top of my head. Could that be what's causing it? Is there any fix? Or do projects that have been upgraded several time throughout CC update history always have this issue?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Audio not showing up in audio track editor - Logic X

Logic XI was doing everything right and then my audio quit showing up in the audio track editor. It shows in the Audio File Editor, but when I click over, having already activated "flex" nothing shows up, just the empty grid. The project is pretty big. Is my computer just refusing to do any more flex edits?
I'm working in OSX 10.9.5 on a 2009 iMac.
Thanks for the help.

You certainly have a problem if you are seeing a vertical piano keyboard in the audio editor window...
You only see the vertical piano keyboard in the Piano Roll (Midi) window....
So are you talking about editing audio or midi data.....?
If it's midi... then click the link icon so its yellow...on a brown background.. to link the midi region with the Piano Roll screen....

Encore CS3 - Hangs and import problems with menus and avi footage with audio tracks present.

I'm trying to import some footage files in .avi format into Encore CS3 and am having several problems.
In what follows when I say "crash" I mean Encore quits with a standard Windows error. When I say "hang" I mean Encore does not quit but rather becomes an unresponsive process that must be killed manually using Windows Task Manager.
My System:
WinXP Pro SP2
2.93 GHz Intel Celeron CPU - single core
Intel PERL mobo
3GB 400MHz RAM
NVidia 7800GS video
I mention these specs however I am not experiencing any hardware
related bugs or issues (like out of memory or video driver crashes
etc) when using any CS3 app.
The footage files (as reported by GSpot) and problems I am seeing. In all cases GSpot reports that I have the appropriate codec installed:
footage1.avi - Dx50 XVid 1.0.3, Dolby AC3 48kHz 192kb/s, 716834 KB
Attempting to import as timeline causes Encore CS3 to hang.
Importing as an Asset allows it to import but when I try to click
on it in the project windown to add it to a new empty timeline,
Encore hangs. It plays fine in Windows Media Player.
footage2.avi - Dx50 XVid 1.0.3, MPEG-1 Layer 3 48kHz 128kb/s, 718302 KB
Imports fine as either a timeline or asset but no audio track comes
with it, even though there is an audio track in the footage. It plays
fine in Windows Media Player. Video imports perfectly, just no audio.
footage3.avi - Dx50 XVid 1.0.3, MPEG1-Layer3 48kHz 112kb/s, 717606 KB
Imports fine as either a timeline or asset but no audio track comes
with it, even though there is an audio track in the footage. It plays
fine in Windows Media Player. Video imports perfectly, just no
audio. I tried converting this one using AVS to both MPEG3 and DivX,
each using MPEG1-Layer3 44kHz 192kb/s audio, and got the same issue
upon importing into Encore CS3. I also loaded it into Camtasia
Studio and it looked fine over there. The audio was present and I
was able to export it as a .WAV file. When I tried looking at the
file in Soundbooth CS3, there was no audio track or, more
accurately, the audio track was a flat line.
By way of comparison these are importing perfectly:
footage4.avi - XVID XviD 1.1.0 Beta2, MPEG1-Layer3 48kHz 189kb/s Two mono
channels LAME3.96r, 717436 KB.
footage5.avi - XVID XviD 1.1.0 Final, Dolby AC3 48kHz 448kb/s Six

footage6.avi - XVID XviD 1.1.0 Final, Dolby AC3 48kHz 448kb/s Six
channels (3/2 .1), 716418 KB.
footage7.avi - XVID XviD 1.0.3, Dolby AC3 48kHz 448kb/s 6 channels

footage9.avi - XVID XviD 1.1.2 Final, Dolby AC3 48kHz 448kb/s 6 channels
(3/2 .1), 2291904 KB
Although this one imported & transcoded correctly, when I went to
build it to a DVD image file I got some strange errors during the
"planning video" stage that prevented the process from completing.
Unfortunately I neglected to write down the error message I recieved
which read like quite nonsensical babble to me, and I have since
deleted the project folder. I remember it was not a memory or
display related error and it included a timestamp where the error
was happening. I played the footage in the preview panel thru the
identified timestamp but it previewed perfectly without even a
jitter in either the video or audio. Took forever to transcode so I
doubt I'll be doing this one again anytime soon.
Another issue I am having is with the motion menus. I burned a DVD and it does not load correctly in one of my DVD players (a Sony rdr-gx330 recorder/player). It appears to take extra time to recognize the disk, the startup (first-play) menu does not show automatically, and I must press the Main Menu button on the

Another issue I am having is with the motion menus. I burned a DVD and it does not load correctly in one of my DVD players (a Sony rdr-gx330 recorder/player). It appears to take extra time to recognize the disk, the startup (first-play) menu does not show automatically, and I must press the Main Menu button on the remote control to make it appear. Other than that it seems to play ok in that player. Also tested it in 2 other DVD players (a Panasonic and Zenith) and it worked just fine like it's supposed to in them. Also plays perfectly in my computer's DVD player/burner using Windows Media Player v10. I tried burning to Memorex +RW single-layer single-sided disks at 6, 7, & 8Mbps project settings but got the exact same result every time.
Encore CS3 crashes fairly often during authoring, particularly during imports, and when I go to edit things like calling up a timeline in the timeline panel, dragging footage into an existing timeline, or changing button links in a menu etc.. I have also experienced seemingly random hangs even more often, probably 5 or 6 times as often as a crash. Saving the project after every little change I make, then closing and restarting Encore allows me to make progress albeit at a significantly reduced workflow rate. Accessing Photoshop from Encore appears to be working flawlessly so far aside from the slow load times. Encore hangs sometimes during video transcoding, repeat the process and it works ok. If I try to import a menu from the library after importing my footage files, Encore hangs trying to import it either at the 50% mark or the 99% mark (it varies even with the same exact menu selected from the library). If I import the menu first and the footage after, then no problems. Also trying to render motion menus after importing footage causes Encore to hang, render before footage import and everything works ok. Interestingly enough, previewing my project in Encore's monitor or preview panels works perfectly even in High quality mode -- in fact it operates quite smoothly in comparison to other apps I have tried. Although those footage files that had missing audio tracks on import obviously played silently, I have yet to experience a hang or crash during a preview or when scrubbing through a timeline in the monitor panel.
The last problem I've seen is with the project cache files. It doesn't always get rid of cache files when stuff is deleted from the project. I was working on one project and surprisingly ran out of disk space. When I tracked it down I found that there were some two dozen copies of a footage file I had repeatedly imported and deleted from the project still sitting in the cache folder. The file was an avi about 2GB so it was taking up some 40 GB of disk space for stuff that was no longer in the project. I tried shutting down Encore and manually deleting all the cache files, and that worked for most of them, but there was one 2GB file that kept reappearing in the cache folder even though it was no longer in the project. The XML file in the cache folder still had references to it in there so I can only assume that was the reason it kept showing up. I eventually had to delete and totally recreate the project from scratch to regain my lost disk space. This included having to sit thru a 6 hour long transcoding session which pissed me off to no end.
Encore CS3 appears on the surface to be a very powerful, feature rich, and approachable app with a simple easy to use interface, but it is awfully bugged in just about every area I have explored and still needs lots and lots of work for it to be really useful. Frankly for me it is pretty damn annoying that I have invested so much money in this suite only to find several of the apps in it (Encore & Premiere in particular) behaving this poorly. In my opinion every single app in the suite exhibits lousy performance whenever you must do anything at all involving the disk from the time you click to start it up until the time you click to close it down. Several of them are just as seriously bugged as Encore too, and being a long time Photoshop v5.5 user I expected much more from Adobe. Even Photoshop is two or three times as slow now (e.g. it takes about 20-30 seconds to simply create an empty 500x500 pixel image file and almost a full minute to load a 30x60 pixel single-layer gif). So far I have attempted to create 6 DVDs using Encore and after 3 weeks of effort have only succeeded in getting one of them onto a final disk -- and that one is kinda limping to work correctly in my DVD player. Three of those projects became so corrupted while working on them that I had to delete them completely and recreate them from scratch, only to find that I still couldn't get them to completion for one reason or another. Seriously disappointing.

Exporting Quicktime with discreet audio tracks

How in FCP do you export a quicktime file with more than two channels of audio that are discreet?

Hi -
For FCP 7:
Click on your timeline.
Type Command - 0 (Zero) and click on the Audio Outputs Tab.
Change the number of outputs you want, and set the track pairs up as stereo or dual mono, as you want.
Click OK, a warning dialog box will come up that you can dismiss.
On the timeline, Option-Click on each audio track right below the auto-select toggle icon, and from the drop down menu, route the track to the desired output track.
When done, export the Quicktime movie.
The only way you will verify that all the tracks are there is to either open the exported quicktime in Quicktime pro and menu Window > Show Movie Properties. You'll see the additional tracks listed there -OR- just import the exported movie back into FCP and bring it up in the Viewer, you'll see all the audio tracks.
Make sure you restore your sequence back to two channel ouput, if you want, when you are done.
Hope this helps.

Renaming lots of Audio Tracks

I am organizing a large multi-camera shoot and have a total of 10 tracks of audio. I have synced everything into the number of multi-clips I need and want to label each audio track according to who the mic is attached to. This is fairly easy to accomplish, but turns into a tedious task when I have 10 tracks of audio to change per some 100 multiclips. The track names would stay consistent across all of the multiclips, so if I could change it once for everything, that would be perfect. Is there some way to change the default track names somewhere? Perhaps a Copy/Paste function of 'all track names' to a new clip? Any other way to turn this tedious several hour task into something that might take a few minutes? Thanks for any help.

Had a bit of trouble following your reply, sorry, but what it seems to me like you are talking about is video overlays? I don't need the audio track name displayed on screen. What I am talking about doing is when the multiclip is open in the timeline (right click multiclip>open in timeline) I go to the audio tracks and expand it a bit until you can see the name of the track displayed as 'Audio 1'. I right click that and hit 'rename' and change the track name to the persons name, such as 'Jack'. Now in the timeline that entire audio track displays as Jack's audio track, which is appropriate, as it is his audio. If I go into the audio mixer I can change all of these fields without expanding and right clicking, but it is only slightly faster that way. What I'm looking for is a way to make the default of the first audio track instead of being 'Audio 1' be 'Jack'. If that doesn't work, some way to get premiere to realize that Audio 1 was renamed 'Jack' on this multiclip and I want to copy and past that track name to this other multiclip, much the same as if I was copying keyframes in After Effects from one layer to another. Barring that, literally anything to lessen the workload. I ended up having to do it the slow way last night, but I might have to do this sort of thing again in the future, so a way to do it fast would still be helpful.
If I assumed what your post was about and got it wrong I apologize. Please let me know if you think what you proposed above would help me with my clarified issue.

Replacing audio track - slideshow

I have managed to create an imovie project with a slideshow of still images, and an audio track.
I now want to re-use the same slideshow, but with different audio track.
I spent a lot of time setting up the slideshow, and would prefer not to have to repeat the whole process.
Is there any way I can re-use the existing slideshow, but replace the audio track?
Thanks.

If you still have the project in the Project Library and wish to preserve it, right-click (or Control-click) on it and select Duplicate Project from the pop-up menu, or select File > Duplicate Project from the main menu. A copy will be placed in the Library. It will have the same name as the original but with a number appended. The name can be changed - just click on it and it will be contained within a light blue background. Overtype the name to your preferred name.
In the duplicate project, you can now delete the original audio track (assuming it's a separate track below the video thumbnails in the timeline). Click on the audio track to highlight it, then press the Delete key on the keyboard.

2 Audio tracks on one video?

Hello,
I have two videos that are the close to the same...and are pretty close in length.
One of the AUDIOS i want to use for practice and the other for the Actual process.
So what i would like to do is set it up so either video can have BOTH audios.
People will be watching them many times so to keep them from getting board
with having one audio for one video. I want them to be able to change the audio.
So when watching one of the videos for a week with the practice audio
the can then watch the video next week with the Actual process
and visa versa for the other video.
I know there is a way to add subtitles or a different language to a video.
But these will be only 2 videos of 7 total in the DVD.
Is there a way to do this? if so could someone please explain or direct me to a video or tutorial
on how i might do this?
Thanks so Much!
Soshman

Here's one way:
The 5 videos with one audio will just be regular timelines. Lets call the two other videos with the 2 audios V1 and V2. And the two audios A1 and A2.
So you want one timeline with V1, and in Audio track 1 you will have A1, and in Audio track 2 you will haveA2. In another timeline with V2, you will have in Audio track 1 A2, and in Audio track 2 you will have A1.
You will have a menu that will select the audio track. See help:

Audio Tracks "Mixed-up"

Here's a new one for me. Using FCP 5.0.2 and Tiger 10.4.2.
I edit an hour long program using two cameras and their respective audio so I have 4 audio tracks. After tweaking and equalizing the audio I render the whole timeline. When I play the timeline back, one of the audio tracks is playing audio from a different part of the timeline even though the timecode matches. This has happened twice on this project. Never happened before.
It's easy enough to fix, I control click on the offending audio clip and choose reconnect media but then I have to render again. Anyone know what is causing this to happen?
Thanks,
Joe Goldsberry
Media Concepts

1. delete audio renders and re-render
2. trash FCP preferences
3. run basic system maint - permissions/ verify disk, diskwarrior, etc (probably not your problem but doesn't hurt at all)
4. make sure your project is on a second hard drive
5. make sure your second hard drive has enough free space
6. make sure your system hard drive has enough free space
7. open a new project and copy your sequences into it
8. create new user account and open your project from it. If it works, some user preference is likely screwy.

Audio tracks missing when doing automate to sequence.

Using PMW200 with 4 audio tracks. When dragging single file to timeline I get the 4 audio tracks. But when I do an automate to sequence, I only get 1 audio track, plus, the default audio transition is not going on.
I have all the tracks highlighted and have ticked apply audio and video transitions.
Any idea where I'm going wrong? Thanks
Mike Ward

Hi Kevin. I uploaded a clip onto you tube for you to try, but you tube mixed the audio tracks so it was useless.
Basically, drag any video clip with 4 audio tracks recorded from camera onto timeline in cs6, and all audio tracks appear on the timeline. But automate several similar tracks to timeline and only one audio track gets added. The other 3 do not appear. Is there a work around for this, rather than dragging all on one at a time.
Thanks

Audio track restarts in the middle of a clip

Hi!
I'm having an interesting issue with the audio tracks in my Timeline.
When I start playing a clip the audio is in sync with the video. Then about 5 seconds into playing the clip the audio starts over. The playhead does not go back to the beginning, but the same audio is looped over again--and of course is now out of sync with the video track. The clips are not out of sync in the Timeline.
For example, one clip is an interview: "This duck is un-banded so I'm going to get to put a band on this duck. It's a male mallard. I can tell because it's starting to get it's green head. Although at this time of the year..." (audio cuts off and restarts): "This duck is unbanded so I'm going to get to put a band on this duck. It's a male mallard. I can tell because it's starting to get it's green head. Although at this time of the year they are molting so they don't have the brilliant green head that we're all used to seeing."
The waveform of the audio restarting is represented when I open the clip from the Timeline into the Viewer! However if I go back to the Browser to the original clip and play that, the audio track is fine.
What's going on here? What can I do to fix this besides grabbing the original clips from the Browser and replacing them in the timeline? Or forcing the audio tracks out of sync to match? (eek!)
I must have done something weird...

One example of an affected clip:
Source is from a Panasonic HD camera--so transferred to FC from a P2 card
Item properties:
817.5 MB
960x720
DVCPRO HD 720p60, Interger (little Endian), Timecode
Hey--could this be caused by the frame rate of the sequence? I just noticed that the sequence these affected clips are in is 60fps, and my video clips are 23.98fps. So--I copied and pasted my clips into a new 23.98 sequence and the issue has gone away. Huh. Oops... Not enough coffee this morning.
Thanks for trying to help out--sorry to have answered my own question (duh).
