Why is video clip linked to adjacent clip's audio?

When I highlight a video clip in the timeline, the adjacent clip's audio, is also highlighted (not that of the clip it is associated with). I've checked and the link icon (interlocking chain) is green (active). So not sure if video & audio have become unlinked (for all clips).
Is there any way to associate a clip's audio with its own video (instead of the one next to it)?
Thanks!

Unlink it from the current association (opt or cmd L - I can't remember right now), then select the ones you want to associate with and opt-or-cmd L...

Aperture - when you have saved a multi-media slideshow and you export it how do you make sure the audio track retains the volume drops that you programme in? I have video clips with audio, which when they play in the slideshow, I fade the audio (music)?

Aperture - Sorry I'm new to this so this might be a bit long! I put together an aperture slideshow with a backing music track and some video interspersed with photos. When I exported it to put on you tube the audio backing track had not saved the fades that I had programmed when the video clips played. The video clips had audio on them that I set at one volume whilst fading the backing track. these fades didn't save on the exported version. Any suggestions please? Regards, Maxjackpete

Insert a video clip with audio in a sequence

I've created a sequence out of three subclips and renamed and saved it. When I try to add another video clip with audio to the end of the last subclip in the sequence it only adds the video, not the audio.
Please advise

Edit the video with sound to your timeline, when you are ready to replace the video with pictures, lock the audio tracks by clicking on the locks at the left side of the timeline:
Clicking on the locks will lock the tracks and will protect them from being affected when you replace the video with pictures.
Remember to unlock them when you want to edit or add more audio to the sequence.

Why the video clip will automatically "zoom in"?

I do not make any changes on the video clip, but when I drag the video to the channel, the video is zoom in. However when I drag it to working panel( is it the name of it? the top left area... ), it look normal.
Why this is happen? How can I solve this problem?

Harm, you crack me up!
For the OP, it sounds like the footage you have is too big for the size of project you set up in Premier. the two have to match.
The SOURCE MONITOR (top left) resizes itself to fit whatever footage you happen to be looking at. It always "fits".
The PROGRAM MONITOR (top right) show the footage exactly how it relates to the project size. If, for instance, you put SD footage into an HD project, the footage would seem to small for the frame.
Hope this helps.

When I move video clip, my audio clips (unlinked) split ??

I have separate video and audio clips on the timeline (they are not linked). When I try to move a video clip (or multiple clips at one time), before I let go of the mouse, the audio clip(s) below the video split, so that they are before and after the moved video clip. They are not linked together. How do I move a video clip without affecting anything else?
Thanks.

This might be helpful from some of my old notes. The ripple behavior can be overcome by the use of the CTRL
button. However it depends on whether you press CTRL before or after you start moving the clip. When moving clips
around in the timeline there are 4 basic types of movement Lift, Extract, Insert and Overlay:
The first two, Lift and Extract have to do with how the clip is moved OUT of it's current position. To see what I
mean, hover your mouse over a clip in the timeline, then press and release the CTRL key while watching the status
text string in the lower left of the application window, you'll see that holding CTRL before clicking and dragging
triggers the extract behavior (which tells the timeline that there is a gap being created that should be closed)
but clicking and dragging with no CTRL modifier allows the Lift behavior (which tells the TL to ignore the gap)
The second two, Insert and Overlay have to do with how the clip is placed IN to it's new position, that is,
whether it is Overlaid over exisitng footage without any ripple movement or Inserted within the existing footage,
causing any following media (including that on other tracks) to be rippled forward.
Since there is no way to lock down tracks in PE, you must always be mindful of what this default rippling behavior
is doing to overlapping media on other tracks.

How can I match sound quality between video clips and audio clips?

Hi guys,
First of all let me say that I enjoy using the latest Media Encoder. However, as a novice, I have two related problems.
1.I am recording video to use with PowerPoint slides in Adobe Captivate. I am encoding the video with best quality FLV. This produces very good video,
      but with a degraded audio track, even though I had filtered the audio in soundbooth. The post encoding sounds like it did before Soundbooth corrections.
2. Some of the video recording has been set cut into audio clips to be used as background narration behind PowerPoint. The logic behind this is: that if both are
      recorded at the same time, the voice quality should match.
This is far from the outcome. I have tried MP3 for the audio which of course produced the best sound- but is entirely unlike the rest of the video. I have also encoded the audio with Windows Waveform preset figuring that since the soundbooth edit was a .wav file, that there should be a reasonable match. Wrong again!
So, the audio quality of all clips is poor, and the difference between the encoded video clips, and the audio encoded clips spoils the otherwise professional result in Captivate.
Please help, all of you experts.

Thank you.
OS Windows 7 x 64; 3.2 MHz; 2 TB; 12 GB Ram-9GB ram allocated to Adobe.
My process is this:
1. The whole video and audio narration material is shot in one continuous video sesseion.
2. The microphone is only mono, but the camera is set to stereo. Noone can work out how to change the camera to mono.
3. In Premiere Pro 5, I select render and replace in SoundBooth.
4. In Soundbooth, I choose Add Multichannels.
5. In Multichannels, I delete the unwanted noisy channel, and any other unused channels.
6. With the remaining mono channel, I then select Export and Save As option, then Stereo.
7. Next I edit the stereo channels as needed.
8. The imported stereo won't automatically update in Premiere Pro, so in PPR I import the new edited stereo track.
9. I test this track in PPR, to check that it is playing R & L channels. It is. OK.
10 On the timeline, I proceed to cut apart this single stereo wavelength .
11.These clips are saved as Video, or Audio subclips.
12 From the video subclips, I export to Media Encoder, and choose either FLV4 match attributes (High Q). This I modify to custom 2 pass (Custom save).
     The summary says that this is saved to MP3 Stereo.
13. I import this into Captivate 5, but the Video outcome is Left channel only. I have tested this on Media Player/Real Player where it is also L channel only.
14. I export my Audio subclips to Media player, and select MP3 option and this summary also reports stereo. The Audio outcome is stereo, when played in any player and in Captivate 5.
I cannot understand how a single, continuous track edited uniformly in Soundbooth to stereo, can produce different outcomes in Media player.
I would so appreciate a solution to this problem, because, in the Captivate 5 e-learning production, the switch between stereo audio (behind PowerPoints), and l. channel video is distracting. Naturally, the l. channel only is a thin sound. It is as if it had never been edited in SoundBooth at all.

Toggling between video clips (not audio clips) in the timeline

Hi,
I was wondering if there is a solution to this small inconvenience I am experiencing in FCP 5. When I have snapping enabled, and press the down arrow key, the playhead jumps to the next audio or video clip in the timeline. I am trying to find out if there is a way to jump between video clips only.
Thank you
-Peter

Thanks,
Do you know if there is a way to make the up/down arrows snap to only the video cuts on the video clips in the highest video tracks in the timeline? Thanks.

How do I adjust video clip and audio start times?

I cant figure out how to adjust the start time of video clips and songs. I want my music and video clips to start at different times. I am trying to have music and pictures start at the same time at the begining of the movie then transition into my videos at a specific time. Also i am wondering if there is a way to combine the whole video and image segment into one block and be able to shift it up and down the timeline? Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks

instead of adding music to the background, 'stick' the music-clip to your video clip => the music appears as a green bar, you can move, shorten etc as any other clip.

not in iMovie.
this is one of the major features (grouping and magentic timeline) of FCPX

In iOS iMovie, can I create a new voice over track while listening to the video clip's audio?

Can I hear the original track of a video clip while adding a voice over using iOS iMovie? When I try to record a voice over for a clip that already has video, the video's audio is muted.

Forget it-- I figured it out.

Locking video clip to audio track?

I have a bunch of video clips in my sequence. A couple of the clips I want at certain points of the audio track and I dont want them to move but when I ripple delete video clips in fron of them it shifts the clips back (moving them away from the specific spot on the audio track). Is there a way to lock a video clip to a certain part of the audio?
I tried "grouping" the video clip and the audio but that doesn't seem to work as the video clips still move.

You can't lock a clip, only a track. Move the desired clips to a higher track and lock that.

Extend a video clip's audio over the next clip

I cannot get it to work. When I put the pointer over the blue audio track, it turns into a hand. When I try to drag the audio track over the next clip, the whole clip (video and audio) moves. The result is the end or beginning of the clip is changed. Maybe, I am doing something wrong?
Thanks, Steve...

I would use the CUTAWAY function for this.
First, go into IMOVIE/PREFERENCES and make sure that the Advanced Tools are enabled.
Put the full video clip (with the audio you need) in your project.
Drag the second clip in and drop it on the frame of video where you want it to start.
When a popup menu appears, choose CUTAWAY.

Move Timeline Playhead to next Video Clip - Ignoring Audio Clips?

Why are video clips glitchy in iMovie?

Hi!
I have a bunch of 1080p clips that have come off of a Panasonic GF3 digital camera. These were in .MTS format, but iMovie won't touch those unless they came straight off the camera (and they came off it a while ago). Instead, I used avconv (ffmpeg) to losslessly convert the MTS files to MP4. The new MP4 files play flawlessly on Mac (Quicktime), Windows and Linux.
However when I import them into iMovie, it completely messes them up. Any areas of the image that move get 'torn' and then 'repainted' one second later (on each keyframe). I'd put this down to the iMovie preview, but after rendering the completed iMovie project out I get exactly the same problem.
Does anyone know what the problem is or how I can fix this? I have basically finished my project now - only to find that the preview errors are permanent!
I have iMovie 10.0.5, and MacOS 10.9.5. I can provide example videos that exhibit the tearing if needed, as well as the final result of iMovie's rendering.
thanks,
- Gordon

Hello,
It's a long story, for the past year I've been trying to make a few simple slideshows from iPHOTO. Yes, it is suppose to be this simple few step process to send photos over to iDVD but it never works for me. In the beginning I was on the phone with the Apple help line and they would give me instruction. When one set of instructions did not work, the Apple help line person would give me different instructions. In the end the DVD slideshow was made/burned.
I've taken a few trips and I'm back to trying to make a DVD-R slideshow. I discovered through this discussion thread (see my question Why can't I make an IDVD
Posted: Jan 14, 2007 1:17 PM) that I need to go into Customize/Media/iMOVIE in iDVD and select the last slideshow that I imported and the process worked. Well I discovered that my fifty plus slideshows are sitting in iMOVIE. Most of the slideshows are repeats and I want to delete all of these bad slideshows and start fresh.
“Did you happen to use your digital still camera in movie mode?” At one point I downloaded a movie off of my digital camera into iPHOTO.
“Is it possible you are looking at the QT player window and not iMOVIE? No, when I open iMOVIE and select “Open an existing project” all of my imported slideshows from iPHOTO to iDVD are sitting in iMOVIE.
Can I delete all of these bad slideshows and start fresh? I’m having to come up with new slideshow names every time the slideshow DVD-R burning process does not work.
It takes alot of time to sit and wait for the Apple help line people. I actually bought a telephone headset because of this problem. I really just want to figure out how to do this the right way and stop wasting so much time.
Thanks for your time and interest!

Why do video clips in purchased v12 still show "created with trial version"

I'm new to Premiere so bear with me. I trialled elements v12, liked it and purchased a download. When I import clips they still show "created with trial version". I removed all traces I could find of the trial version before installing the new one so I'm baffled.
Can someone please enlighten me?
Thanks

Why are video clips always stalling?

HTML5? Flash? I never had this problem before. Could it be that last upgrade?, I'm running OS X 10.6.8 with 2GB SDRAM, 2 GHz Duo processor.
When prompted to star it runs a few moments then stalls with the pause prompt still displayed. A couple clicks gets it to start again then it stops on it's own, or may do so with a series of jerky starts and stops.
Ya, I'd love to get that new MacBook with the Retina screen and current OS. I am at the top of the bunch ( grey Leopard I think ) . Is it just a problem that only money can solve?
Phil ... yep, lost in the clouds.

Hi Russ,
Now you’ll know how really dumb I am! I have the libraries and media stored on 3 external drives, although FCP app lives on the hard drive. I accessed the project from one of the drives. Then also tried accessing it from the program on the HD. The media is AVCHD from a Panasonic AG/AC 160 camera, shot at 60 fps. I deleted the files, but haven’t had a chance yet to re-import as both opt. and proxy. Other clips, imported before upgrade, are fine.
I have an iMac mid 2011; Processor 2.5 GHz, Intel Core i5. Two of the drives are 1 tb and the 3rd is 4Tb
thanks,
