Video importing, but not audio

Hello-
When importing files into final cut, the audio on some of the footage does not import. anybody know why? the file types m-peg from my sony handycam. they play with audio on the VLC player but not in final cut.

There are a few versions of MPEG, yours most likely have multiplexed audio.
Working with any kind of MPEG based material in FCP is a terrible hassle. It needs to be transcoded to an editing codec such as those listed in FCP's Easy Setup menu.
So.... where do your files come from, a camera? Tell us the manufacturer and model.
Someplace else? Please specify so that we can advise on the best way to proceed.
It would also be useful to know which version of Final Cut Pro, QuickTime and Mac OS X you are using.

  • Using time remapping w/AE CS4  to freeze time/video freezes but not audio

    Ok I do alot of editing of sports. One thing I like to do is freeze the moment when a special play is about to happen, highlight the player (via masking), then resume play. I had no problem with this in CS3. Now when I use the same workflow in CS4 the video freezes but the audio doesn't. So when I play it back I see the video freeze BUT the audio is still playing...hence now my audio is not synced up with the video. Didn't do this in CS3. My workflow: from PP -rightclick clip- replace w/ AE comp- AE loads my clip in a comp- I enable time remapping- extend the duration of the comp by 5 sec- find the point I want to freeze-set a key frame-copy key frame to origninal position- now I have a 2 second freeze between 2 keyframes. When I check the comp in PP the video freezes where I want it to but the audio keeps playing during the freeze....even after render. Thoughts?

    Hi,
    I'm also having the same problem with CS4 version.  I'm using Mpeg4 file shot on my canon 60d and it's freezing the video in places and continuing the sound.  The whole clip is just over 2 mins and I don't have any effects at all.
    Does anyone know how to solve this please???
    Cheers!

  • First half of video imports, but not the second half

    I'm trying to import video clips from an SD card. The longest clip is @ 15 minutes. There are 4 clips. When I play through them in the "import" window, the entire clip(s) will play through. However, when I import them, only the first half of each clip imports into iMovie.
    I've imported from this SD card before with no problems....
    Help?

    I'm having a similar problem. I'm trying to import from my camcorder, and it appears to import everything, but then it only spends about a minute processing the video, and then when I go look at the clips, only the first couple of minutes have been imported. I can't figure it out.

  • In v.11, how can I capture video but not audio from a camera?

    In v.11, how can I capture video but not audio from a camera?

    Rodney
    I see what you mean....Premiere Elements 10 appears to be the last version that had options for the user to select Capture Video and/or Audio in the its Capture Window.
    If you are doing DV data capture firewire into the Premiere Elements 11 Capture Windows and want a final file without audio and you cannot do this at the camera level, then consider....
    1. Do the Capture "to the Timeline" - video linked to audio result on the project's Video Track 1
    a. Right click the Timeline DV AVl and select Delete Audio and then edit accordingly.
    or
    b. Import the DV AVI but, when you go to export it, in the export settings, remove the check mark next to Audio so that the export contains only the video portion.
    Publish+Share/Computer/AVI with Presets = DV NTSC Standard
    Please let us know if any of that worked for you.
    Thank you.

  • How come when I view flash videos my videos stop, but the audio plays  and I see rainbow colored lines up and down the video.

    How come when I view flash videos my videos stop, but the audio plays  and I see rainbow colored lines up and down the video. I attached a image below.

    ATR, just to make sure you understand me, all my video clips in my folders appear as the first frame of the video clip when I view my folders as (small, medium, large)icons instead of lists, when saved as .avi files but when saved as .mp4 files, those icons display as a graphic icon of filmstrip with a musical note on it. I do have various other methods to open with (quick time, windows media, winamp or real player) but prefer real player because I like it's quick and easy trimmer that comes along with it, since so many of my videos are just pet antics where you need to clip off the boring beginning and ends of the video.
    I did go on a few of the icons and right clicked, Open With, and tried quick time and also Windows Media and it did nothing as far as how the file was saved for display, and they opened the same no matter which player I used...the actual video opens and plays right at it's first frame... but it's the way it is visually displayed in STORAGE that bugs me because it isn't immediately apparent to me what it is a video of (weddings, outside the house, pet antics)... it makes me have to actually title things and read titles where before I let it just be dates because I had the visual of that first frame as a reference. Obviously, this is a problem for unedited videos only, as anything I actually work with, I do give a title along with the date of the video.
    I also just realized this seems to be the way ALL videos that are wrapped in .mp4 are displayed, as my bloggie camera's videos appear the same way. Now I know why! My other videos display as .avi's so I see the frame. Puzzle solved. Guess I'll just have to learn to live with it, as it seems to be how things display with the various formats.
    Now I need to watch some tutorials to learn how this Premiere program works! It's all new to me, since this is the first time I've been able load any of my videos onto it. I haven't even been able to figure out how to trim on it yet!

  • I was having problems with video and audio on certain sites like youtube. I edited some settings in Realplayer and have video now, but no audio.

    Went into preferences on Realplayer, Download and recording, then unchecked "Enable Web Downloading and Recording...". That got video going, but no audio still. (Interesting that the list of browsers below that check box did NOT include Firefox.

    See:

  • I rented a movie on my iPad. It began to download but then it disappeared. The movie appears in my rented videos, but when I click it, it says, "video rented but not downloaded. Go to downloads to manage downloads". Where did my downloads go?

    I rented a movie on my iPad. It began to download but then it disappeared. I freed up a ton of storage space to make sure I had the room for it. The movie appears in my rented videos, but when I click it, it says, "video rented but not downloaded. Go to downloads to manage downloads". Where did my downloads go? I re-booted my iPad, signed off/on iTunes etc. I can't find a folder with downloadable items anywhere. ITunes just tells me, "you've already rented this video. Do you want to rent it again?" What happened to my movie?

    Did you check the Videos app?

  • Video plays but no audio. Help!

    I have a 2011 MacBook Air with the proper configurations and Mountain Lion. I am trying to take an online course. The video plays but no audio.  I have tried all the suggested fixes, but nothing works.  Everything else works on my computer with no problem.  I need help fast.  Any ideas or known issues?

    Sorry, I read the forum rules . Thanks for the reply, but I haven't actually updated the Nvidia drivers in a while. Right now they are on 311.06. I keep them at the stock clock speed as well. Also have a slightly overclocked i5 2500k. but that never effected Adobe products before.
    I wonder, does VLC Player at all affect clip playback? I think I saw there little traffic cone.
    Yup. Is PP CC using VLC instead of Quicktime? And/or would that have an effect on playback? Also how would I correct that? I imagine uninstalling VLC would.
    Well, I uninstalled VLC, and now the Quicktime logo shows up just before the thumbnail loads instead of the VLC logo. I'm gonna assume that means that PPCC is using quicktime, but I STILL get no video in preview playback!
    Starting to get frustrated.

  • 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

  • Imported Audio CD, two songs imported but not included on album with rest of songs

    I just bought an Audio CD "Red River Blue", Artist Blake Shelton. I imported the CD into my iTunes library.
    The CD has 11 songs on it. All 11 songs were imported into my iTunes library. Two of the songs had additional artists listed on the credits.
    Track 7 Blake Shelton with Martina McBride and Track 11 Blake Selton with Miranda Lambert.
    These two songs were imported into my library but not included in the Album. They were labeled with their correct track number and the album was missing a song for track 7 and track 11. There was no cover artwork associated with those songs.
    When I moved the album to a playlist these two songs were not included.
    This is clearly an error in the current iTunes!
    Back before iTunes had the new visual format and new user interface I did not have this problem.
    I have reviewed all the preferences for iTunes but can not find any that would seem to control this behavior. I can not conceive that importing a cd should work this way.
    I tried to find a way to correct this situation and found that if you did get info on all 11 songs you could force them to be included on one album.
    The resulting album did not show track 7 in the correct order and the two tracks were still missing the cover artwork.
    I believe that in one of the iTunes updates that required a library conversion all my albums that had this situation were converted wrong so they broke apart songs from their albums.

    And thinking about it, when I reconnected last Sunday I recall that I got that prompt on my phone something like "Do you trust this computer?". Not seen that one for a while.

  • I can import my first clip to the video library, but not the second clip. I tried dragging-dropping and using the "E" key, but only the first clip will show up in the library. I use IMovie 9.0.9 and OSX 10.8.5. with no problems until yesterday.

    I can drag my first clip from the New Event window into the Project Library, but not the second. I can highlight the second clip in the New Event window, but it won't "drag". The "E" key works for the first clip, but not the second.I've been using IMovie daily and the problem just appeared. No upgrades to the computer and no new software installed.  IMovie 9.0.9 and OSX 10.8.5

    Thanks victoryhat.  I learned some new things from this very clear tutorial.  But it didn't answer my question about why the titles don't stay with the video when I export it.
    He did mention something that might be a clue however.  When he talked about importing a title he created as an image, he noted that he was careful to make the image the same size as the video he was adding it to: 1280 x 720.  Since I took the video with an iPhone in the vertical position, my video image isn't the same size and orientation as the titles.
    Maybe there is a way I should be setting the screen for this size???  I'll go back and play around.  Meanwhile thanks for alerting me to Gary Rosenzweig's MacMost tutorials.  Very clear.  I'll look for more.
