Sound Problem With Imovie 4.0.1

joeoooo · #1 August 8th, 2005, 12:30 PM

I have a camcord, Cannon Elura 40 and I had been using it with iMovie foe a while. However, recently I have not been able to import video into imovie correctly. The problem is the sound. When I imported, I could hear the sound from both the camcord's speak and my MAC G4's speaks. But after importing, if I played a clips from iMovie, this was no sound. If I tried to make a iDVD, it said error in encoding audio.

It used to work fine. I tested on a friend's iMovie HD, it worked fine.

What is even stranger is that I could extract audio from a clip and show the waveform (don't know if if's correct though because I couldn't hear it).

Please help.

Thanks,

Joe

I have the same problem with the audio too. The strange thing is that when I convert the iMovie film I have recorded/edited to QuickTime, the audio is back, as nothing has happened.

Another strange thing is that the volume of the iMovie-recording follows the mastervolum on the computer. This does not seem right and is quite annoying.
