Audio Glitches

Post by Weeination »

I have a small video I downloaded which consists of a slideshow with music. I am attempting to put this on a DVD along another primary video. The primary video looks and sounds fine when burned to disc. However the music for the slideshow has random clicks or popping sounds which are not there on the original download. Is there a setting which would prevent this from happening? I tried the audio filter Clicks Removal but that didn't seem to help.

What format is the audio? If mp3, have you tried stripping out the audio and converting it to standard .wav in a program like Audacity, then reinserting it?

The only other thing I can think of for now would be to disable SmartRender if it is enabled. But that might unacceptably lengthen the overall render time for what is just a small segment of the project.

You may find the URL, https://forum.corel.com/viewtopic.php?t ... ilit=blips, relevant.

To get around the audio blip problem in VS, you might find Audacity helpful for sound editing.

The audio as shown in properties is MPEG AAC. When I split the audio and save it as a WMA, M4A or WAV with VideoStudio and rejoin it with the video I am still getting the same issue on the new video files. When I deselect Smart Render that doesn’t help and it also causes each new photo to look glitchy for a second when they first appear in the slideshow.

I tried to load the M4A and WMA audio files it into Audacity but I get a message saying that the files are an “Advanced Audio Coding file. Without the optional FFmpeg library, Audacity can not open this type of file. Otherwise, you need to convert it to a supported audio format, such as WAV or AIFF”.

The program will accept the WAV file but what am I supposed to have Audacity do with it?

Nothing. Some people use Audacity to convert other audio formats to wav, and to tidy it up if it needs tidying or other audio effects applied to it. But you have already converted it to wav in VS itself. But you say that too causes the same glitches when converting to new video files.

I am somewhat at a loss about what more to suggest...
