Video sound over a photo.

Is there a way in iMovie HD to insert a photo between two clips and have the video sound play over the photo without the video.
I want to replace a small section of video footage with a picture, but continue to hear the audio of the video, sort of paste the photo over the video.
Thanks in advance.

Haloric,
In addition to Ivar's method you could try this.
If the photo already exists in your clip viewer or time line, select it then choose File>Copy. Now position your playhead where you want the photo to appear and choose Advanced>Paste Over at Playhead.
iMovie will automatically extract the video audio to preserve it.
If you don't already have the photo in your clip viewer or time line, you'll need to first bring it in to your project. Then just move it to the clip pane or just select and copy it right in the timeline.
This technique works with video clips too. Useful for a quick cut away to something else.

IMovie - I have video interview and added photos. I want to add sound to the photos. They are at the end of the video. I added one free music sound over the start of the photo section. How do I continue to add music to the following photos?

iMovie 11 Version 9.0.8
My iMovie starts with an taped interview then I added photos.When I added sound it went over the video, so I moved it down over the photos. I want to add more sound (music) over the remaining photos. How do I insert background music at a specific area?

HT201317 I have over 300 photos and 87 videos on my iphone 5. each time I plug in for battery I get a message saying not enough space, need to buy more, so I did yesterday. While attempting to do icloud storage again it said would take 83 hours.

I have over 300 photos and 87 videos. When I recharge the battery I am geting the message to buy more storage to because not enough icloud space. So I did yesterday. That went ok, but the new message tells me it will take 83 hours. Perplexed I went thru the settings and turned off apps and their data that I didn't realize where on. Now I'm not sure if I needed to purchase more storage but it is still taking forever to complete the task. Am I on the right track with this, meaning will take forever to store all my photos or what ? The only other item I have on to store is contacts. Can you assist me ? Thanks - emoslim

Welcome to the Apple Community.
The first back up to iCloud may take some considerable time. Just how long isn't really possible to say without knowing how much is in your back up and your connection speed.
What many people don't realise is that upload speeds are often significantly less than download speeds, so for example a user may have a download speed of 40 Mbps, but only 1 Mbps for uploading. As a rough guide it will take around 2 ¼ hours to upload 1 GB of data at 1 Mbps.

I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?

Check the Recently Deleted album. Deleted photos will reside there for up to 30 days. This allows all those people who accidently delete photos to recover them, something they couldn't do before. To actually free up the space you might have to delete the photos in the Recently Deleted album.

Aperture isn't importing videos from iPhone, only photos. I've tried plugged in and over wifi. Help?

How did you transfer the photos from your other iPhone? If you did it by importing them from the old phone to a computer and then used iTunes to sync them back to the new phone, then you would delete them by syncing again using iTunes but this time change the selection of which photos are to be synced. Each time you sync using iTunes, it sets the non-Camera Roll photos on the phone to match the current settings/selection in iTunes.

My Apeture library is suddenly empty. I think it happened when I was trying to use Prism to upload a video into my computer. My memory quantity is unchanged so can I hope that the over 7000 photos are still available- just missing? My imac is 5 yrs ol

My Aperture library is suddenly empty. I think it happened because I was attempting to import a video with Prism. I did not actually figure out how to complete that and gave up. The next time I opened my computer the library of over 7000 photos was completely empty. My memory quantity has not changed however,
could this mean that the photos are still in there somewhere? My imac is over 5 years old and I just don't know where to go for help.

Just to eliminate some possibilities, since you said that memory has not changed (and I'm assuming that you mean there is no more free space on your hard drive than you had before), have you looked to see if you have a filter activated?
Does your search field read "Unrated or better" or "Show All"? I'd check that first:

Kevin is suggesting that you store the projects you create while working through his book in a folder called RoboHelpProjects. It is not where you have to store every project you ever create.That is for the purposes of his book.
RoboHelp initially defaults to My RoboHelp Projects but it's up to you whether you do. Generally on the forums we advise against that as it is part of your profile and can result in excessively long path names in a few cases. Generally where authors create file names that are so long they almost serve as the content.
Projects always have a root folder, call them Project 1 and Project 2 for this purpose. You can have those folders directly off your C drive (or other local partition) or within in a parent folder as above.
Now to what you can and cannot do. You can delete a whole project by selecting Project 1 or Project 2 in Windows Explorer. Obviously if you delete the parent folder you will delete all your projects within.
What you must not do is delete individual files within a project using Windows Explorer, for that you use RoboHelp's Project Manager. The exception is if you go to Tools > Reports there is a report Unused Files. Files listed there will have to be deleted using Windows Explorer for the very good reason they do not appear in Project Manager and, therefore, cannot be deleted that way.
If you think about it, it is similar to Word. There is no option to delete a document there other than using File > Open and right clicking. Not very intuitive.

I can't superimpose over a photo or video.... Please HELP!!!

I am about an hour into an underwater film I am working on. All of a sudden when I go to superimpose text over a photo or video clip it kicks my existing overlays up and wants to put the overlay on it's own layer..... but there isn't anything there. It doesn't show the text but put another working layer onto my timeline. I must have hit a combination of keys or something. I've never had this happen before. I am dead in the water right now and can not continue. Any help would be REALLY appreciated.

Which version of FCP are you using?
it adds another layer in my timeline...
This is supposed to happen. Could it be that you have V1 selected as the active track and already have superimposed other tracks on V2?
Change the active track to V2 or higher so that the text goes above your other supers.
Example. The following setting will send your super to video track 2:
Moving the active track patching button higher will send the super (in this case) to V3:

Adding Text over a Photo in a Movie

First, is this possible? Can I actually add credits over a photo added from IPhoto to a movie in IMovie 5?
I am having a problem adding a title (credits) over a photo I have added to the end of a movie. I unclick "over black" and type in the text to scroll over the photo, and when I try to drag the "T" onto the photo, a black clip appears, and the text goes over that. I look up, and the "over black" box is checked again. I did lengthen the time of the photo, but that hasn't made a difference.
The text has appeared over the wrong clip at times, too.
I'm sure I'm missing something somewhere. Help!

Another thing to consider if your photo is a still frame, not using KB effect:
If you are ok with the title appearing just a few seconds after the start of the photo, use the "Split video at playhead" to split the photo just where you want the title to begin, and place it there. Just be sure that the length of the photo clip and the title are the same. You can lengthen the photo clip after the split if you need to.
This is great to do if you have used a transition before the photo, because you don't have to delete the transition. I have split a photo that had transitions on either side, lengthened the middle photo clip and added a title to that. Worked great!

Qosmio G50 No sound over HDMI

*Qosmio G50 No sound over HDMI*
Hi all,
Hopefully anyone recognises the following and would be so kind to help me. I have searched the forum and tried severall of the offered solutions mainly applicable to Vista, but still.
I hooked up my Qosmio G50 to my Philips LCD by HDMI cable. Picture is ok but there is no sound. I tested the cable with a Toshiba Satelite Pro L550 and it works allright. Picture and Sound are working. But that laptop has Intel HDMI audio.
I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. I upgraded by Toshiba update DVD from Vista 64 bit. Sadly I do not know for sure if HDMI audio did work before that. I think so because I did use the laptop for watching a movie on a Panasonic plasma. But I can not remember if that was before or after the upgrade.
Realtek HD Audio device is installed driver version 6.0.1.5923
Realtek HDMI Output is selected als default playback device.
Testing gives me graphical response ( the indicator flashes ) but no audible sound from my tv.
Choosing the other audio device Realtek Digital output changes nothing and I do not believe that this would work anyway.
I have tried removing the device and reinstalling the original drivers. I have tried REaltek drivers from their website.
I have tried changing the view to HDMI only but that does nog change anything either.
One thing that worries me is that under Sound / Realtek HDMI Output / properties / Supported Formats there are no formats present. The Satelite gives me DTS audio and some other. So I am wondering if there should be formats present and if so how can I change this / add any.
Please forgive me if there are errors in the text. I am translating this from a dutch language version of Windows 7.
Please help me. Any suggestions are welcome!

Jeka-?? & PinkPanther thanks for your replies!
The solution for the G30 you mention is not the one for me I am sorry to say. I have tried that one allready. Windows automatically switches on the HDMI audio out when I connect an HDMI cable. Connecting the cable before switching on the TV and laptop is a good thing to try because it eliminates possible problems with the connection. The connection in my case is ok.
At some point I concluded that there must be a softwareproblem of some sort.
I have found the solution over night. Could not sleep anyway. I did not know that the videodrivers are also handling HDMI audio out but in a way it makes sense. I have completely deinstalled the NVIDIA video drivers. After downloading the latest drivers and installing them everything works absolutely fine!

Video/Sound delay with AppleTV on higher resolutions

I have a new Sony 55" RP SXRD HD TV (1080p max res), and just hooked up my AppleTV today. After syncing it with most of my video library and some of my music library, I tested the video appearance. My initial setting was 1080i, and I experienced major video/sound synchronization delays (similar to older DVD players where you'd hear what the person was saying 5-8 seconds before they said it on screen). This drove me nuts, so I switched down to 720p res, and while the movies played okay, the TV Shows and the Music Videos left much to be desired, and still had the same synchronization problems. To remove these issues, I finally changed the res down to 420p, but now, when I watch pretty much anything (photos, album art, TV Shows, Music Videos, and Movies), the resolution is horrible, and pixelates on my TV.
I'm trying to pinpoint this to find out if it's the TV, the connection (HDMI), or the AppleTV. Can anyone offer some advice on what to look for, what might cause this issue, and how I could fix it? Thanks so much in advance!

Sounds to me like it's a problem with upscaler. Does the Apple TV upscale? If it does, then it's the upscaler in the Apple TV and is probably a software problem that can be fixed with a firmware update. But it's weird that if it's a consistent problem with the Apple TV upscaler that these forums aren't just soaked in complaints about it. Could be only a problem with really large, say 46" or greater TVs -- that might explain the low number of complaints.
If the Apple TV doesn't upscale, then it's the upscaler in your HDTV. Prior to about six months ago, when all HDTVs got good upscaler chipsets, some HDTVs, especially the older, larger models, had absolute trash upscaler chipsets -- even the expensive quality brand models got some bad upscalers. All kinds of problems from all input sources, but not always with every device. How old is your HDTV?
For your sake, I hope it's an Apple TV upscaler problem with larger dimensioned HDTVs, as that Apple can fix for free with a firmware update. Next best choice is your terrible upscaler chipset in your HDTV supports firmware upgrades via USB or network cable and there is a firmware update out that fixes your HDTV's upscaler problems. Because the final, worst alternative, if there is no update for your HDTV available, or your model doesn't support firmware updates, it's the really bad option: drop another couple grand or more for a new HDTV of the same large dimensions.

Assuming you are using a television: is the input type (in the televisions settings) set to digital? (analog disables sound but does not change the picture)
Yes, and I tested the same HDMI port on the TV with a different PC and both video/sound work with that. With this one I get video but no sound.

Video sound????

I got my iphone4 alittle over a month ago, right when I got it the first video i took, when i played it back you could barely hear the sound i tried everything but nothing worked so I figured maybe the video sound on the new iphone wasnt good until my friend got hers recently and its clear as day? What could be wrong with my sound on my video?

There's a lot of similar threads here...
