Video coming in but no audio?

I'm trying to get some media that was shot on a Sony DCR-SR100 (hard drive camcorder) to work in FCP. Video comes through fine but no audio. Client brought it in on an external hard drive and they are MPG files. They play okay in Windows Media Player (audio works) but after bringing into FCP there is no audio - what gives?
Any ideas? Important project with deadline.

Oh I had just this problem - the trick was getting exactly the right settings. I still have some weird square pixel issue: when I use 720x576 it needs no rendering, but is less wide than my PAL DV sequence, but when I use 768x576 it fits exactly but needs rendering (however it should play - it's one of the lowest rendering levels if you get me, not orange or red at least on my system).
My settings for PAL are:
Compression: Apple DV - PAL (Options: Interlaced, Aspect Ratio 4:3)
Sound: Uncompressed 48khz
Frame Rate: 25
Frame Size: 720 x 576
Interlaced Scaling - selected
Field Dominance - Lower Field First
Rotation - No
Zoom - 100%
X/Y - 1
Cropping - 0
This for me needs no rendering in FCP, however as mentioned it is too narrow so I then have to stretch the shot which requires rendering. If anyone has advice to fix this, I would be very grateful.

  • How can I get netflix streaming audio, the video is fine but the audio coming through is from the TV(dish)

    how can I get netflix streaming audio, the video is fine but the audio coming through is from the TV(dish)

    It's exactly as I stated. Whenever I try to drag these kinds of loops (ESX24 / software instrument loops? the ones marked in green with the white music note next to them) from the loop browser into the timeline a message comes up saying Audio Not Found for that loop.  And a new track is created automatically when loops are dragged into the timeline, so I'm not creating some other random / synth instrument track so I'm not sure  what the deal is... But perhaps I'll try creating a software instrument track first and then drag the loop into that track and see what happens - maybe there's something with the default settings that automatically creates audio tracks whenever loops are imported?

    1. I ran software update and am up to date. Does this mean that my yet to be activated Boot Camp ap is also up to date?
    There are 4 confusing pages of updates listed at Apples website for Boot Camp. I am having a hard time understanding what I need and don't need. For example, what version of Boot Camp do I have? I have Boot Camp Assistant version 3.0.4. Does this mean I have Boot Camp ver 3?
    You have Mac OS X Snow Leopard, so you are going to use Boot Camp 3 on Windows. After installing Windows 7 on your MacBook, insert the Snow Leopard DVD and install the Boot Camp drivers from here. Then, as the Boot Camp drivers that your Snow Leopard disc contain are outdated, open Apple Software Update on Windows to install the most recent Boot Camp drivers.

    2. The printed Boot Camp instructions do not explain the process of using downloaded Windows drivers; the instuctions only refer to drivers on the original disks. I have the original install disks from around mid 2010 but I am sure many things have been updated by now. Wouldn't the best idea be to download and install? But the instructions only cover using the original disks. How do I use downloaded drivers?
    On Snow Leopard, you can only download the Boot Camp drivers for the Late 2010 MacBook Air. On Lion and Mountain Lion, you have to download the Boot Camp drivers for all the computers. If you try to download the Boot Camp drivers on Snow Leopard with your computer, you will get a message telling that there aren't any drivers to download for your MacBook Pro

  • I copied several MOV files to a CD. When I play them from the CD the video is fine but the audio works fine for the first few seconds then stops (using Qicktime Player 7.7.1.  Everything works fine if I use VLC Media Player. Does anyone have any idea why?

    My purpose for copying to a CD or DVD is so that I can make copies and send to friends and relatives. What is the best way to get these files on a CD/DVD with the right codecs?
    The easiest thing to do is to simply tell your friends and relatives to copy the files to their local hard drive before playing them. Your basic problem is that data discs have a limited real time transfer rate. Since you say VLC plays the files fine, I might suspect its player is likely buffering the data while the QT 7 Player is not.
    Data discs made for playback directly from the CD or DVD are normally encoded using MPEG-4/AVC (H.264) video with AAC audio. This is a modern codec which has specific settings to re-package the data (i.e., must be encoded using the multipass option and then select the "optimize for CD/DVD" option).

  • Videos have picture but no audio... can someone help?

    Everytime I convert one of my video files to put onto my iPOD it loses its sound, why is this happening and how can i fix it? Please help
    5th Generation Video 30G iPOD   Windows XP   brand new

    Quicktime, Quicktime Pro and iTunes don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
    See:iPod plays video but not audio.
    You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
    Search this forum for recommendations, but beware of spammers trying to sell you their own product.

  • Just want to replace some video with photos, but LEAVE AUDIO THERE. No way?

    Is there no simple way to just replace some video with other video or photos, but not affect audio? I have an interview, and they're talking about places, and I want to put in photos of the places. Pretty basic stuff.
    Thanks for whatever help...

    OK, yeah, CUTAWAY. But, I have the audio "purpled". Should it be? And my photo is sitting ABOVE the place where I want it. How do I get it to go down where it's supposed to? I really need a step-by-step here. I see how to manage the duration of the cutaway, but I don't see how to actually get it INTO the track, and how to "un-purple" the audio track.
    Thank you!

  • Can capture video...but no audio

    sorry if this is a repeat question...new to iMac and Final Cut Express 4. I am trying to capture a video that was recorded with audio. Connected DV camcorder to iMac via firewire - no problem. capture video - no problem. audio? no audio. have looked through the manual - can't seem to find the answer anywhere. is a mid year (07) iMac - aluminum.

    the problem has been solved...although i am not sure how. we were expecting to hear the audio AS it was capturing...and the other day when we tried it, we didn't have audio when we played back what we had captured. tonight, unfortunately, we didn't ever actually try playing back...until now so, i'm not sure at what point in our troubleshooting we actually corrected the problem - but it's corrected....thanks for your help!

  • Imported video from DVD but no Audio

    I burned a DVD with my DVD recorder and imported it to a media file and then dragged the file into FCE2. The video plays in the viewer, but no audio. The audio plays in QuickTime Player. I've trashed my preferences and restarted my G4 computer--all to no avail!

  • I can send video to IDVD but not audio...

    I shot it on my video camera, imported with Imovie, sent it to garageband to add chapters (markers) and then sent it to IDVD for burning. Am I needing to check some audio button or something? The dvd burns fine but no audio.
    Thanks.

    Xvid/Divx are output files, not meant to be edited (variations of the MPEG4 codec, often used for Internet streaming video) so, they mostly do NOT edit well (if at all) in any flavor of Premiere

  • Embedded video is black but with audio, but the video works fine on youtube.

    I'm having trouble with firefox not been able to display embedded video on sites.
    I see the preview image but when i start play all video area becomes black and I can hear the audio playing. I also can pause the "video".
    If I start firefox in safe mode, it works.
    I have deactivated all my extensions/add-ons, without any success.
    I have reset all cache, no success
    I have restored to factory result, no success
    I have uninstalled firefox, and deleting all local data and reinstalled firefox, still same problems.
    I have tested to go to http://www.youtube.com/html5 and activated the html5 player, and then I see the play button, progressbar and volume etc, but still no video.
    The video is working fine in IE 9 and Chrome (unknown version, but since it autoupdates it's probably the latest)

  • Embedding another sequence's video...but not audio

    I want to take the video from one sequence of my film (call it "sequence A") and place it in another sequence (call it "sequence B"). I don't want the audio from sequence A in B...just the video.
    I would have thought that if I made sure that the "v1" source and destination on the "B" timeline were hooked up but the "a1" and "a2" weren't, that I could just drag sequence A onto the sequence B timeline and I'd be fine. But it doesn't work: FCPro always wants to bring in the audio from sequence A, despite the fact that I haven't set any "targets" for the audio.
    Is there a way to do this? Thanks.

    Good of you to ask, because my terminology is a little messed up. By "patched," what I meant was that my sequences had multiple audio outputs (one dual mono channel and two stereo channels, for a total of six different audio tracks). And indeed, that was the source of my problem. When I tried to drag a sequence directly from the browser onto the timeline, those other four audio tracks were what was appearing. (The a1 and a2 tracks--because they were "unpatched"--weren't appearing, which is the correct behavior.)
    To fix my problem, I loaded the clip from the browser into the viewer first (by dragging...I had been confused because I had expected to be able to right-click on browser sequences and say "open in viewer"...but that menu option doesn't exist even though it's something you'd very much want to do). Once my sequence was in the viewer all of the patch "lozenges" appeared (in fact, far too many appeared, but that wasn't a problem), then I could successfully unpatch a3 through a6 and bring in my video without any audio.
    Thanks for everyone's help.

  • Video O.K but no audio when QuickTime's launched.

    I'm not getting audio when QuickTime is launched. Can't hear movie trailers or any type of audio being streamed using QT. I'm also having issues with iTunes. Here's a my short entry that I posted in the iTunes section:
    "Only when listening to iTunes do I experience choppy audio; Whether its podcasting, songs chosen from my Library or radio streaming. I've uninstalled, then re-installed iTunes but to no avail."

    I recently started having audio problems (namely: no audio, but video is fine) when I upgraded to the latest QuickTime version.
    In fact, since I had problems on my computer I watched some trailers on my Dad's computer and it worked fine with the older version of QT. But then recently I agreed to upgrade his iTunes and QuickTime and since then I can't watch the same trailers...
    Whoopsie.
    Oh, and I'm not having any choppy audio with my iTunes. That sounds like too many programs running at once or something.

  • HT2844 When I plug my LED cinema display into my macbook Pro, the video switches automatically but the audio still plays via the macbook speakers by default. Is there any way to make the audio default to the display audio when plugged in?

    Hi,
    Pretty much as the tital says really. I'm fed up of having to manually select my audio output every time I plug my macbook pro into me LED display. Can I make it default the audio to the display when plugged in?

    yeah- I think so, AlexGrady.  see if your machine supports hdmi audio out, it should say under "about this mac"
    then  buy the correct adapter to your LED display.  I think you also have to enable audio out via HDMI, and the adapter has to support HDMI audio passthrough
