Unable to backward while synchonize audio with animation.

Hi there,
Is anyone facing the problem which when you doing the audio synchonize with animation. I make mistake(animation appear wrong timing), with presenter 6, we just pause and move the slider backward to the newly appear animation willl disappear in order to redo it. But In presenter 7, backward of the slider nothing will happen.
This problem very waste of time when you trying to synchonize more than 20 animation with 5mins above of video for each slide.
Please aid me on this problem.
THanks~!

Nope, definitely using sync!
have you tried the various settings listed in the Manual under

(click on that title in the Manual to expand it)
Your description sounds to me, FCPX tries to adjust the various sources by an uneven timecode...-
What you want/need is “Use audio for synchronization.” ...

  • Sync audio with animation

    Hi -
    I'm not sure I can accomplish this with Flash (8 - AS2) so I
    thought I'd run it by some experts first.
    I have to re-build a 5 minute narrated animation. The
    original version is an 800x600 After Effects project, exported as
    MOV, then converted into FLV. The file size was so big that I
    eventually broke the MOV into 5 "chapters" and made 5 FLVs. The
    audio narration was a layer in the AE project and tightly sync'd
    with the animation. This worked great except that the
    conversion/compression to FLV yielded either very large files or
    really crappy looking files. So this time I thought I would make
    the animation in Flash, and not use FLVs at all, but I'm in the
    dark about how to sync the audio (did I mention it had to match the
    animation closely?). In addition to that, the user still must have
    Play/Pause/Rewind control that FLVs can provide.
    What's the best way to do this? Should I embed the audio into
    its own FLA layer or is there a way to lock in a separate AIFF (or
    whatever kind of audio format) ? Or maybe this is not the way to go
    at all?
    I'd appreciate some expert direction - or warning - before I
    tread too far down the wrong path.
    TIA your input.

    If you really need tight synchronization between the visual
    and the audio then the best course of action is to use a medium
    designed for that. If you decide to use digital video, then you
    have a very large range of codecs to use. You should be able to
    find one that provides a good looking visual and a reasonable file
    size.
    If you must use Flash, then the flv file format is the best
    option. You have a very limited set of codecs. You could use
    something like Sorenson's Squeeze to do the compression to get
    better results than with Flash's built in video tool.
    Trying to build your own solution in Flash can be very time
    consuming, frustrating and, probably, less than perfect.

  • Unable to record internal audio with RecordMyDesktop

    I can record from the microphone with with the command "recordmydesktop". I succeeded in recording the internal audio with audacity by choosing the device "looprec" for recordings. I'm not sure why RecordMyDesktop gives an error while Audacity does not. Below is my ~/.asoundrc, which I copied from the aforementioned thread. I am not knowledgeable, but I guess there is a mistake in it? Would you please assist me solving this error? Thank you for your time.

  • Sharing a Presentation with animations, but no audio

    How do I get a presentation I created without audio but with
    animations to display in a Connect meeting so the presenter can
    click through it like a Powerpoint? Currently the presentation just
    clicks from slide to slide with no animations, so the items that
    I've animated are skipped.
    Help!! We go live tomorrow!

    Casper,
    Okay I want to sing the friendly ghost from the show when I see your name.
    I burn avi all the time in Toast 7.1.2 Toast and I usually convert them to divx to fit 10-11 hours of video on there, but I've done it with DVD video. A friend lent me a movie once with no sound and here is the problem that will work everytime. You need to download the VLC player to get it to work right. Here is the link: http://www.videolan.org/
    Didn't even know they had an intel one as I have the other version on my Powerbook and just transferred it to my intel one. Once it is downloaded you click on the orange striped cone and then you will see a little VLC box come up. The most effective way to view any file is to go to File up top and then scroll to open file (I've down the quick open file too and then you see a open box and a button that says browse next to it. Click the browse and find the movie or divx you want to watch and click open and then okay, then click the play arrow that is on your desktop and viola. You can go up top too and go to video and click full size screen etc.
    If this was helpful or solved your problem please click the helpful or solved button up top. If this doesn't work let me know too.

  • Sony DCR-DVD505 Handycam: Unable to get video clips, audio

    Evaluating Adobe Premier.  Hopefully helpful for other Sony DCR-DVD505 users.
    Objectives:
    1) Get videos from Sony DCR-DVD505 handycam into Premier Elements
    2) Drag and drop various clips into Sceneline
    3) Insert menu markers
    4) Burn DVD
    Stuck in Step 1, getting video from handycam, unable to get video clips (with audio)
    First Try: NO AUDIO.
    The Sony DCR-DVD505 burns a mini-DVD (1.4 GB) while recording.  After "finalizing" the disk, the media may be imported into the computer.  Streaming was supported by Windows XP driver but is no longer supported in Windows Vista.   In fact, Vista Service Pack 2 (SP2) does not even recognize the camera as a DVD drive!  So downgraded to Vista SP1 and used the Sony Picture Motion Browser to import media into computer as MPG files.  Each MPG file is a clip (corresponding exactly to camera record on-off sequence while shooting).  Then opened up Adobe Premier Elements 8.  Used get media to import all the MPG clips into "Organize".  Dragged and dropped various clips...inserted a menu or two and...burned the DVD.  PROBLEM: VIDEO OK, BUT NO AUDIO(?!).  The MPG files on computer play fine (with audio) inside Windows Media Players.  Read all sorts of nonsense about why Adobe Premier (probably old versions) cannot work with "low-quality/compressed" MPG and needs to be a particular type AVI soo....
    Second Try: Capture VOB directly
    Forget the camera.  Insert the mini-DVD directly into computer DVD drive, create a new project and followed directions from  "Lowdown on VOB" http://forums.adobe.com/message/2117743 and "tools to convert to DVI" http://forums.adobe.com/thread/415317.  I loaded the VOB directly and dropped them into  Timeline as advised by the second post (only hitch being the first VOB pertaining to the DVD menu is not recognized and is neither needed).
    However, File > Export is always GREYED out (unusable).  And the status at bottom right seems to be looping on "Background Rendering".  DO I WAIT?  In any case, the whole video is showing up as a single continuous stream and what I want are the clips from the camera?! 
    Then I tried Prism (again as per the second forum post mentioned above).  It simply did something to process 30 minutes of video and crashed in the end without explanation - saying there was an error in conversion.
    Is this AVI conversion even a good idea?  How would I get my clips back??
    Bottomline.  My mini-DVD and imported MPGs plays fine in Windows Media Player.  However unable to extract the camera clips (with audio).

    Dawg, I have the Sony DCR-DVD305, and have been using it successfully for quite a while with PE7, with few issues, once I had a workflow nailed down.
    I believe the 505 is basically the same camera, with some additional features.
    This workflow worked for me in the past so I'll pass that along:
    Sony Browser to PC as Mpeg.
    Mpeg to Windows Movie Maker, output to DV-AVI, taking default settings.
    DV-AVI imported into PE7.
    This should also work for PE8.
    Upon getting Cyberlinks PowerDirector v7, my new workflow changed to this:
    I take the min-DVD directly from camcorder to my PC, and capture the disk via Power Director.
    PD will convert the VOB's directly to DV-AVI Type 2 on one pass.
    I then load this DV-AVI into PE7.
    (PD v7 was pre-installed on my new PC from HP, or it can be purchased from Cyberlink).
    Other options to try:
    Copy the VOB's directly from the mini-DVD to your PC and use Prism to convert these to AVI.
    Or load the VOB or Mpeg into PE, then use that to convert to AVI.
    (Export to DV-AVI with PE8 is done with SHARE/PC, not Export under the File Menu, which is greyed out).
    I've had many issues trying to work with Mpeg's and VOB's when loaded directly to PE with limited success.
    So if you can get it converted successfully to AVI outside of PE, I've found this to be a better approach.
    Post results, if any of this works for you...
    Note: One other thing, if you are working directly with VOB's to PE, especially multiple VOB's from a single DVD, you can encounter out-of-sync issues between video and audio. If this occurs, review this link from Muvipix:
    http://muvipix.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=2469:

  • Adding audio to animation

    I have a project and I need to add audio to it. Is there a way to make one slide pause while the audio speaks then continue on with the animation? I can't seem
    to make it do this.

    Hi Deb
    If you insert a Click Box or a Button object, either of those objects will pause the presentation until they have been clicked. That's their default behavior. Of course you are free to change that if you like so things don't pause.
    You may add audio in many places in Captivate. You may add Background audio that will play the entire time and loop. You may add slide audio. That's often where folks choose to add narration. You may also add audio to Captions, Buttons, and nearly all other objects in Captivate. So you could add audio that is staged to begin at a pause point. You will have to experiment with the best way to do it that will achieve your goal.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Final Cut Express won't capture audio with the video anymore, why?

    I have used Final Cut Express 4 for over a year now with no problems, but recently I am unable to capture any audio with the video from my camera. I can do it through iMovie no problem. I can't figure out if I changed a setting by accident because everything looks normal to me. Could another program be interfering with this? Quicktime Pro? I have no idea how to fix this.

    First of all, we need a bunch of information in order to help. Please provide the specs of the footage and the sequence you are using. Also, are you using DV, HDV, or AVCHD? Do you hear audio when the clip is played in the viewer, or is there no audio at all once the clip is captured/ingested?

  • Error while executing Initialize with Data Transfer for 0FI_GL_10

    Hello All,
    Post Pre prod refresh, our timestamp for the datasource 0FI_GL_10 got reset. Due to which our deltas did not bring any records to the BW system.
    First we did an Initialize without data transfer for all the BW related datasources. The deltas were then set properly for all datasources except 0FI_GL_10.
    We then raised a message to SAP and they suggested to run the 'Initialize with data transfer' for 0FI_GL_10 so that the timestamp is set and accordingly the deltas are fixed.
    The issue now is we are getting the following error message while running INIT with data transfer.
    Job terminated in source system --> Request set to red

    We have copied the data till July 1st week of 2011.

  • Unable to charge my Ipad 4 with my Laptop (HP 7010tx) USB . I am Getting error message as "Not Charging" . Please give a solution for this ...???

    Unable to charge my Ipad 4 with my Laptop (HP 7010tx) USB . I am Getting error message as "Not Charging" . Please give a solution for this ...???

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

    let's first try switching off "error correction" in your iTunes Advanced-Importing preferences subtab.
    do the songs import any better with error correction switched off?

  • Imovie 5.0.2, Stuttering playback and out of synch audio with visual.

    I have edited a movie on Imovie HD 5.0.2, it is about 50 mins long. When I came to record back onto my Sony DCR-HC42E camcorder (I don't have a combo drive on my Imac) the playback is not acceptable. It stutters, freezes and after a while the audio becomes out of synch with the visual. The playback is generally not smooth enough either. I have updated to the latest operating system. I have chosen standard quality playback from the preferences option and am very frustrated at the poor results.
    I have 20 GB of space left on the computer.
    If anyone can suggest a solution I would be most grateful.

    Mark, if your Mac has just 256MB RAM it's possible adding more RAM will improve playback and your export to the camera. I wouldn't bet on it, but it's certainly worth a try. (You need more RAM anyway, so it's a good idea nevertheless.)
    There may be another way to successfully export your project to your camera. Even projects that "stutter" when played in iMovie often export correctly to QuickTime. (The export to QT is not time sensitive, unlike the export to the camera.) You should be able to export your project to a Full Quality DV movie, one of iMovie's built-in export options. Exporting to QuickTime "flattens" the movie, making it easier to play.
    You would then import THAT movie to a new iMovie project. That project will probably export successfully to the camera.
    You may want to test this by exporting the first few minutes of the project. (To export a group of clips instead of the entire project, select them and use the checkbox button "Share selected clips only" that you'll see in the export dialog.)
    You're running low on disk space, so here's a trick to avoid iMovie having to make yet ANOTHER copy of the Full Quality movie when importing it. The movie will be about 12GB; it won't be small.
    Instead of importing the Full Quality movie to a new project, create the new iMovie project, Quit iMovie, open the project package (Control-click on the project icon and choose "Show Package Contents" from the popUp menu) then drop the Full Quality movie into the Media folder. Re-open the project. The Full Quality movie appear in the iMovie trash. Open the Trash window and drag the clip to the Timeline. Save, then export to your camera.
