Unsupported Audio Rate Error

I stopped using PR4 for a couple of months due to being away etc, and came back to use it only to find that none of my existing projects work and any new vid file I try to add I get an 'Add Media Error' stating "Unsupported audio rate in file"
I didn't change anything, but it stopped working. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and same error. I use XP Pro SP3.
This is a new one on me. Any ideas?

Alan,
I'd be interested in seeing what G-Spot shows for the CODEC on your AVI. The AVI extension indicates a "wrapper" only. It could contain material of all sorts with dozens, if not hundreds, of different CODECs. G-Spot is a tiny, freeware program (www.headbands.com/gspot), that will give a wealth of info on what is inside many AV format files. It works 100% with AVIs and about 95% with MPEGs. When one gets to WMV and MOV, it does fail to gather data with greater frequencey. G-Spot will also tell you the Audio CODEC used and all data on the sampling rate and bit-depth. (See below)
My *guess* is that you need a particular CODEC (maybe one of the DivX, or Xvid), that you once had on your system.
When something once worked, but no longer does, it usually indicates a change in the system. Many folk will upgrade their OS from say XP to Vista, and all of a sudden things do not play, that once did. It usually requires a download and install of some missing CODEC.
I don't know PE that well, but Pro, Soundbooth and Audition have no problem Importing 44.1KHz 16-bit and up-sampling to 48KHz 16-bit material - mono, or stereo. That *shold* not be a problem.
Try G-Spot and let us know what it says about your file(s), especially the CODECs used.

PS if you upgraded from XP-SP2 to SP3 in the down-time, something could have become fritzed there. XP updates seem pretty good at not breaking existing settings, but one never knows. SP2 to SP3 didn't change anything for me on three systems, but that doesn't mean that it would have gone perfectly, if I had four systems.
PPS I don't know the answer to this, but Barb, or Steve, probably do. Can Alan start a new Project in PE, using the 1024 x 768 x 15fps with a custom setting? He could then Export to whatever his desired format was, after editing. If he's using a DV preset, PE has to do several things: re-code the AVI to DV-AVI, change the dimensions, the FPS and the Audio sampling to 48KHz. That is a lot of work. In Pro, one CAN set the Project to the Assets - I just don't know in PE. (Thanks)

  • Unsupported audio rate in file during import

    I have an XVID video I'm trying to import. Premiere stops and displays unsupported audio rate. I'm trying to use Virtualdub to get around this, but Premiere keeps reporting the same audio rate problem. I tried to copy the video with no audio (made a seperate wave file), but Premiere still reported unsupported audio rate.

    I used virtualdub to uncompress both video and audio and that appears to be working.

  • PE7 " Unsupported Audio Rate in file " error

    Hi
    Here's hoping someone can help!
    I have a little Fuji digital camera that also does short movies.  We need to edit them together for my daughter's homeowrk project.
    However when I try and read in the .avi film using Media downloader,  Premiere elements 7 tells me that the Audio Rate is unsupported and therefore there is an error and they will not import.
    By the way, they import into Windows Movie Maker just fine so there does not appear to be a problem with the files themselves.
    This is driving me mad as I bought PE7 to do this and it won't work, didn't want to use WMM!
    Thanks

    For file format conversion, I use DigitalMedia Converter to do batch file conversions. It handles both the Audio and Video and outputs to DV-AVI Type II files with PCM/WAV 48KHz 16-bit Audio. I'll load it up, point it to an output folder, get a cup of coffee and when I get back, all is done. It is shareware, not freeware, but has worked perfectly for years and many thousands of files, of all sorts of CODEC's. Note that it requires that any necessary CODEC's be installed on the system, as it does not ship with any of its own, which is a good thing in my book. Some converters will add their own CODEC's, and a few will overwrite properly installed CODEC's with versions that are not the ultimate. I like the fact that it works well with all players and other utilities, that I have, so I do not need to install alternatives, or remove anything else, that works on my system. I have used DMC so much, that I have a copy of it on every one of my computers.
    Also, check your camera to see if you can set the bit-depth to 16-bit, and the rate to at least 22KHz, for the Audio. Many cameras allow you to adjust this, and that might get your files (for next time) into spec. If you cannot change this setting, then conversion will be your only choice.
    Good luck,

  • Unsupported sample rate error?

    Randomly soundtrack pro has corrupted itself, I will be working on a project one day, close out open it the next day and when I try to playback I hear lots of chop. I then noticed that none of the sample loops will play, they just cut off after half a second of playing. In the general tab I enabled Alerts- I get the following error *"UNSUPPORTED SAMPLE RATE, The output device cannot support the sample rate of this project. The output will play at a rate of 44.1 KHz. When you export a project mix, it will be exported at the project sample rate."* any clues??

    Check the sample rate of your audio hardware.
    If you are monitoring through your Mac then look at *Audio Midi Setup.app* found in your Utilities folder, and make sure the audio output samplerate matches your project.

  • Unsupported audio rate

    I've done a lot of googling on the subject but still can't come up with a solution. I try to import a divx avi with no audio track into premiere pro cs3 but it complains that the ausion rate is unsupported, what do I dO?

    Divx/XVid is just as valid an editing format as DV or Mpeg. Premiere is one of the only applications that can't handle DivX/XVid. Sony Vegas has no problem, and VirtualDub, which is open source freeware, works fine too, as well as almost any media player.
    A work around with Premiere is to convert your files to a different codec. I like the free lagarith lossless codec. Don't convert to DV. DV is a crappy format and the double compression of first DivX/XVid then DV will destroy the quality of your footage.
    Cheers,

  • Unsupported audio rate file

    How can I fix this

    Welcome to the forum.
    Along with the request for info above, and John T's suggestion for ripping the Audio with Audacity, for Import back into PrE, can you tell us about the Audio portion of your file? The great, free utility, G-SPOT, will give you the details, or it should. Post a screen-cap from G-Spot, and we can see the details. Here is a look at what you want to check:

  • Unsupported audio rate in file

    I am wondering how Premiere Pro 2.0 supported Divx/Xvid but CS4 does not? Or am I missing something?

    DivX and Xvid have caused problems in all versions. Better convert those formats to DV AVI type2 if you want to edit.

  • Why am I getting midi conflict/sample rate errors. GarageBand 10 intel mac

    Why am I getting midi conflict sample rate errors with no connected midi device?

    Ok, I'll answer this myself. It has nothing much to do with midi devices being in conflict with anything. Nothing much to do with midi devices, as such, in fact. What it seems to be is a slow running system, whether it be processor, or hard disk, or whatever. In fact, when I found the cause of the problem, it was easy to solve.
    What I saw a few times throughout this episode, was an inacurate sample rate report, which caused Garageband to run and react slowly, causing stuttering and flutter in audio output, so that noises were produced as the program struggled to handle the data streams it was reading and trying to reproduce and output cohesively. All of that was caused, it seems, by my iMac overworking and getting a bit too hot for comfort, having run all day, and multitasking for a good deal of it. I didn't adjust I/O buffering, or take any of the usual 'advised action' I've read from other users.
    I simply saved my work and shut down the machine for an hour or two. When I restarted the machine, all had returned to normal. The lesson is, it seems to me, is minimise, or, stop other tasks the machine is carrying out. Safari, in particular, seems to be a major drain on resources, so work without it running. Shut down all unecessary programs and tasks, and run Garageband alone, when working in it. Garageband is a much tamer beast when it's left alone to do what you ask of it. It's quite a sensitive little soul. :-)

  • Adobe premier cc stopped importing avi files with PCM audio codec, unsupported audio format

    We were working just fine using Adobe premier pro cc, we captured videos in avi format video codec MJPEC audio codec PCM. Suddenly, I think after updating using cc, premier stopped importing any file giving the following Error message: The file contains an unsupported Audio format. We have captured more than 4000 hr from our library, and we are still capturing, our work is completlty freezed, we can not export to any format since we can not import in the first place. Our rivals in the market are taking our client and they are using old premier cs6 cracked version, this is ridiculous!! I installed adobe cs6 trial and it is working fine, this is very frustrating.
    I tried to insert an image of what gspot is giving me but for a certain reason it is not uploaded. Please help.

  • Audio rates apparently don't match FCE and recording Is there a cure?

    I am using a Panasonic DVX100A to transfer a miniDV tape shot on an inexpensive consumer DV Camera into FCE-HD, but at the conclusion of the capture I get an error message that I need to set the audio rate to match that of the camera. I'm new to editing so I'm not sure what that means or how I find out what the audio rate of the camera is so I can set FCE-HD to that rate---or does it mean the audio rate at which the tape was originally recorded on the consumer DV Camera? If so, is there a way to know that audio rate without having access to that camera?
    thanks.

    I'm going to venture a guess that the video was recorded as 12-bit audio (usually the default setting in miniDV camcorders) ... and you're probably using the DV-NTSC easy setup in FCE. The DV-NTSC easy setup expects 16-bit audio. Try changing your easy setup to DV NTSC 32KHz and then recapture the material into a new sequence.
    Also check your DVX settings - is it set for 12-bit or 16-bit audio?
    And contact whoever shot the video and ask them to check the settings in their camcorder & let you know what audio setting it was or is set for. (12-bit = 32KHz, 16-bit = 48KHz). If it's 12-bit, they should change it to 16-bit for future shoots.

  • WMV Audio export error

    im exporting a wmv, and "Inconsistent Audio Sample Rate" error box come up..which thens saids "The media you are exporting contains audio with mulipe sample rates."
    I have flip for mac studio pro and running fcp 5.1
    Whats the setting that i need to have to be able to, or what flip for mac lincese do i need?

    look in your timeline and make sure all of the audio sample rates match, as the message you got says they do not. If you need, you can export just the audio for each clip to a new file with the proper sampling rate, and then place them in the timeline in place of the original. Then export that sequence.

  • Audio Rate

    I recently filmed the wedding of my nephew for the purpose of creating a record of the event for them and their overseas relatives.
    I used 2 tapes (Fuji 80min) and filmed with my Panasonic DV camera. I've recorded plenty of footage on this camera that I have used to produce several different movies.
    I have just captured the footage off both tapes. The first tape which was full (ie 80 minutes) and the second tape that only had 7 minutes both captured with any errors etc.
    When I try to put them on the time line, I'm getting a problem I've not experienced before. The second tape works perfectly. The first tape (all clips) when put onto the time line produce the red line across the top meaning rendering is required. When I look at the properties of the problem clips I find that the audio rate is 48000.2Hz . The same check done on the clips from tape 2 reveal audio rate of 48.0kHz.
    HELP!

    Maybe your User Preferences>General>Audio Playback Quality is set to High. Change it to Low for normal editing. The Red Audio Render line may disappear if this is the case.
    Re 48000.2 Hz: The camera must be set to record audio at 16 bit qaulity which matches 48kHz FCE Easy Setup Sequences.
    Did you have a 48 kHz Easy Setup assigined before capturing?
    Some cameras do not record at precisely 48 kHz, hence the small variance. FCE handles this automatically unless you are using Version 1.

  • Different Audio rates & audio formats = drop frames?

    I´m getting a lot of drop frame errors during playback in the time line.
    Now that I want to print my movie to tape the drop frames of course disturb this process, making it impossible.
    I noticed that I have material with different audio rates and audio formats. Could this cause it and how do I make a conversion so that all of my audio is the same rate & format.
    Audio captured with my camcorder is: 48KHz, 16-bit integer.
    CD music in time line is: 44.1KHz, 16-bit integer.
    Timeline is: 48KHz, 32-bit floating point
    (The things that FCP suggests to do when drop frames occur; turning RT to Safe, buying a faster computer etc. havn´t helped, so the problem must be somewhere else)

    You could try exporting your sequence as a self contained QuickTime Movie. This would give you one file with one set of rates and formats. Be sure to set up the export for 48Khz 16 bit. Once that's done, import the file back to your project, place it in a new sequence and try printing that to tape.
    If you're just concerned with getting smooth playback in the timeline you could also try doing an audio mixdown. This is a good thing to do before printing to tape as well.

  • 7600 - 800Mbps Unsupported shaping rate

    Dear all,
    I'm running IOS 15.2(4)S1 on a 7609S. Configuring in the lab an egress policy for a service instance associated to a pseudowire on a ES+ card, I tried to apply the following QoS egress policy:
    policy-map ChildPolicy_CustomerEgress_800Mbps
    class Class_CustomerEgress
      shape average 800000000
    policy-map Policy_CustomerEgress_800Mbps
    class class-default
      shape average 10000000000
       service-policy ChildPolicy_CustomerEgress_800Mbps
    The interface was configured in the following way:
    interface GigabitEthernet7/14 no ip address
    load-interval 30
    no keepalive
    service instance 10 ethernet
      encapsulation default
      service-policy input Policy_CustomerIngress_800Mbps
      service-policy output Policy_CustomerEgress_800Mbps
      xconnect 10.23.23.2 404 encapsulation mpls pw-class Tunnel-103
    When I configured the output service-policy I received the following error message:
    %X40G_QOS-DFC7-4-CFG: Unsupported shaping rate of 800000000, rounded to 131008000 in policymap ChildPolicy_CustomerEgress_800Mbps
    I tried to find information about this restriction, but I was unable to find it. Do you know if there is really a restriction about the shaping rate configurable within a child policy?
    Thanks in advance
    Octavio

    Hi Sandip,
    What Octavio reports is valid. It seems like one more zero is added to his config snippet, but even if it was 1G instead of 10G, the same behavior is observed. This was probably a typo.
    For example, you may check the config below that is not working as it will result to the "Unsupported shaping rate of 600000000, rounded to 131008000 in policymap test"
    policy-map test
    class class-default
      shape average 600000000 6000000 3000000
    interface GigabitEthernet2/19
    service-policy output test
    %X40G_QOS-DFC2-4-CFG: Unsupported shaping rate of 600000000, rounded to 131008000 in policymap test
    If you create a nested policy with the addition of a dummy map, it works:
    policy-map dummy
    class class-default
    policy-map test
    class class-default
      shape average 600000000 6000000 3000000
    service-policy dummy
    interface GigabitEthernet2/19
    service-policy output test
    The problem is that the above log is not cosmetic but it really limits the shaper to about 132Mbps.
