2007-05-04 Thread Kurt Georg Hooss

so that means the camera has the avi file already in itself?
what kind of storage medium does it record to? sure it is 24 fps?
is it a sort of photo camera that can also record short videos?

as for the square wave forms, maybe the amplitude is so large
that the sound waves peak out of the amplification range
and are thus cropped in the boundaries?

so far i have worked only with mini dv, pal format,
so... i must admit i feel a bit helpless in your case.
anybody else here experienced with that format?

sorry... good luck anyway... georg

You can also try to convert your footage with ffmpeg or mencoder. 
Something like:

$ ffmpeg -i input.avi -vcodec copy -acodec pcm_s16le output.avi

Re: [CinCVS] Audio Question...

2006-10-11 Thread Miha Kitič
Assuming that you will be using another device for audio which can not
be synchronized with the camera...

I guess that the only way for you to make it work is to produce an event
that will allow you to synchronize audio and video manually.

I think in movie making they use a small wooden board with which they
make a clicking sound just before they record a scene. I suppose if you
clap loudly near the mike before you take what you want to take (and
make sure that clap of your hands is included in the video), you will be
able to synchronize the clap of your hands with the sound track visually
(you could also hit the camera with the mike ;) . Otherwaise I have no
idea how you could do it.

You can use Nudge for fine tuning. You will find it bellow the fade
slider on the left side of the timeline. I think it works in seconds.
Positive values mean that sound will start earlier and negative that it
will be delayed.

Good luck.

Miha

P.S. If you find any better way, surely let us know :)

Re: [CinCVS] Audio Question...

2006-10-11 Thread Pierre Marc Dumuid
you can shift the wav-file in time, (zoom right in, and get the 
waveforms to match by inserting space into either track.


Once it's in sync, then you'll need to work out the ratio of the 
sampling rates and get them to match... If in one recording the a second 
event, (say 40 minutes into the recording) occurs at 40:20 minutes, and 
40:40 in the other channel, then you'll need to adjust make the ratios 
of the sample rates (40*60+20)/(40*60+40) ..

(if they are the same).

I've had issues with cinelerra' resampler at times, so you may need to 
use sox to do a better quality version..

  This assumes that the camera records no sound, which is not the case
 for video cameras.  It is much easier to synchronise two sounds with
 each other, very accurately:

  Put the two recordings in an audio track of their own in Cinelerra.
 Find a sentence or a sequence of sounds that stand out somewhat at the
 start of the recording, and put a label at a start of a particular word
 or peak in the sound (you can see the waveform in Cinelerra).  Do the
 same with the other recording.  Now shift one of the tracks until the
 labels align.
  Listen to the two tracks simulataneously.  It helps to pan one track to
 the left channel and the other to the right.  Shift one of the tracks
 until you get rid of the echo effect:  The tracks are in perfect
 synch.  Now verify that the external recording does not slip out of
 synch over time.  Skip a little forward; does the echo sound come
 back?  Skip to the end; are they still in synch?

  If the tracks do not stay in synch, you either have to make small cuts
 or pads now and then to realign them, or change the sample rate of the
 external recording _slightly_.  You can change the sample rate for each
 meadia file in Cinelerra, in the Info dialog (right-click on the media
 thumbnail in the Media folder).  This will make Cinelerra resample the
 sound.  This is a little CPU-heavy and lossy, but it can solve the synch
 problem.

 That's what I've done in the situations where I wanted to record audio and
 video with separate devices.  I put in a clap at the start and end of each
 shot in order to be able to correct for speed differences.

OK, how does the clap at the end work to correct speed differences?

Sox isn't all that great either really.  I tend to use sndfile-resample
(or whatever it's called) which comes with libsamplerate as an example of
how to use the library.  Yes, it takes some time to do the resample but
the quality is close to the best that is theoretically possible - Eric's
spent a lot of time on this.  Grab it from
