Ubuntu :: Pitivi Bad Sound / Get Better?
Jan 24, 2011
I'm use pitivi to edit a video of my desktop made by Xvdidcap and I added 2 mp3 tracks with it. Works good its a cool editor but I needed it to come out as mpg so the audio codec is FFmpeg Advanced audio Coding encoder[ffencaac] and the video is FFmpeg MPEG-1 video encoder [ffenc_mpeg1video] but the audio is coming out bad as it you blasted blown speakers. Anyone have Ideas for me? PS: I am using DVDStyler to put it on a dvd thats why I need that code.

I have been doing some very basic editing in Pitivi and how to get it to encode to X.264. I'm encoding to 480p and I was wondering how do I change the setting to make make it encode to X.264 and look good at small or ok file sizes. I will be uploading these to ..... and want them to look sexy.
And if X.264 can't encode to X.264 then at lest how do I turn the quality up in the formats that it does support.

with windows and sony vegas 9 i am used to often rendering with compressed hd avi and uncompressed audio, as this gets mangled far less by videos's compression policy if you have music in your videos, in my case home-made with acoustic guitar. with my two current installations of ubuntu 10.04 on a laptop and pc no output format i've tried lets the raw audio option work, which is the only option that looks like it would keep my wav files as they are. the rendered video is silent, with totem displaying the icon for muted sound when the film is played. unmuting doesn't correct this.
is this a bug or are there other codecs to add for this? aiff would be fine even i think. i wondered if changing the bit rate of aac from the 256000 i currently have entered (rather than the default 128000) to the bit rate of uncompressed audio might force what i need, kind of like ms's newer lossless wma.
i installed the restricted extras packages. there is quite a list in the pitivi options including a lot of ffmpeg stuff. i don't know if additionally vlc's codecs are added or anything like that.

This was an ia32libs problem, now fixed in latest updates. I tried to remove and purge and reinstall through terminal. No success. PITIVI is installed but when I click on the launcher in the applications menu nothing happens.

I have made a video using PiTiVi, which worked fine to make it. But when it came to rendering it into a file I could use, the program just disappears from my screen. Here is the file: [URL]. How do I get it to work?

Pitivi crashes when I import a video to the timeline, tried with diferent formats and mp4 mostly, it's also not that good... I needed to do some things that I used to do with Vegas but with any success. Cinelerra looks like crap and prompts a lot of errors I need a really GOOD video editting tool.

I use Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 10.04, and usually I record my desktop with the program "Record my Desktop", the format of the video is: .ogg, when I had Ubuntu Karmic Koala, I recorded my screen then in kdenlive added audio and effects and all's right, but now i update to Lucid Lynx, and trying to edit my video in Kdenlive and I obtain this screen(I attached my screen), I noticed that the new video that I record after the upgrade of Ubuntu, I can't view the preview with Kdenlive, but with the old record, I can view the preview. And also i noticed that with pitivi, the new program to edit videos of Lucid Lynx, works fine, with new and old recordings, don't have problem.

I have a JVC Everio video camera that records directly DVD compliant mpeg files. Does anyone have a solution how to prevent re-rendering the files since that takes a lot of time and usually the end result is worse than the original one...If PiTiVi does not enable this can anyone propose some other program to do this?

I have a video which I've edited to my satisfaction but when I click play it seems to only play the first clip of video. How can I merge all my clips so it will continue to play through the whole thing?

Ok, so I found PiTiVi after upgrading to Lucid and figured, great, maybe I can stop using my Mac for video editing. Extra bonus, my Mac can't really handle the MTS files my small camera makes.
PiTiVi can load them as clips, and right-clicking on a clip and selecting "Play Clip" works just fine.
However, when I copy clips to the timeline in order to create an actual video, I can't play it or move the playback head. Pressing space does nothing, selecting "Preview -> Play" does nothing, clicking on the timeline does nothing. I can still move clips around, delete them, rearrange them, etc, but not play the video.
I can't render them, either, but I've found there's a known bug where PiTiVi won't render a video unless you move the playback head first... which I can't do.

i am trying to export a video from pitivi in a format that can be uploaded to videos. i found this thread which suggests using an flv muxer with the l.a.m.e. mp3 encoder. my problem is that my pitivi doesn't list lame as an option, and i haven't been able to get it in.
i have tried reinstalling lame from the repositories, and also building lame, ffmpeg, gstreamer, faac, x264 and pitivi from the latest source. i simply can't get a video format to export that works in videos. mp4 and other format exports don't seem to work at all, they get stuck on the first frame.
pitivi can export ogg video perfectly, however if i try to upload that to videos it comes out with bad video. i've tried converting the ogg video to avi with mencoder, but it drops a lot of frames and ends up with the audio badly out of sync. i've run out of ideas to try -- anyone been through this before, or know of something i may be doing wrong? i'm certainly no expert in building from source (or anything!), it just seemed like something to try...

I can't for the life of me find the option to encode my video in H264 in Pitivi. There's just about every other codec imaginable in the list. I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 32-bit and everything is up to date.

I made a video with PiTiVi and rendered it in quicktime format and then went and played it on a Mac and the color was all green and really messed up. I rendered the same video in asf format and went and played it on a Windows computer at it was the same way.

I have a video edited in Pitivi. The source files were recorded from a VHS tape, so it's NTSC size (720x480).
Problem is that when I render it the output looks stretched vertically. When I play it in Totem Movie Player, the aspect ratio option can be changed from "Auto" to "4:3 TV" and then it looks correct.
How can I render the output file with a different aspect ratio?
I tried going into Project Settings and adjusting the Video Output height and width, but this doesn't change the aspect ratio. Also tried PAL and VGA instead of NTSC. What should I try next?
Using the version of Pitivi that comes with a fresh install of 10.04 LTS.

I'm running 11.4 with Gnome 3. I've installed the PiTiVi video editor from Software Manager, but when I tried to run the program, it wouldn't start. Trying to run from the terminal returned this error: "Gst-Python couldn't be found!" I tried looking for the dependency, but couldn't find it in Software Manager.

I was just using the mic and watched it stop working suddenly. I was in the middle of a skype test call when the graphical mixer level died down to zero in the middle of the call. When the test call was played back, the first part sounded fine then the sound got lower until it became inaudible. Since then I can't get any sound from my mic in skype.
Also, the audio input level graphically shown in Sound Preferences shows no fluctuations in sound as it used to before. The input device is enabled. I tried using Sound Recorder to record some sound clips and that worked fine. So the mic is working but Sound Preferences and Skype seem to have the mic level really low. I'm not sure what else to think considering it was working perfectly a few minutes ago. I've tried restarting, but that didn't fix it either.

After installing an external sound card, Im having some weird issues. The cards chipset is fully supported by suse, (CM8738) so I dont think thats the problem. Besides, I'm getting sound, but not in some applications. The system's sounds work just fine (login, logout themes) amarok plays without any problems, kaffeine, mplayer they all work flawlessly, in fact I can see the difference in quality between the onboard sound and my new card. However, no web browser is able to play any sound at all, firefox, opera or chrome, nothing,zip. Plus, vlc cant reproduce sound either, nor can smplayer.
I've tried switching channels on and off(muting)in kmixer and in alsamixer, on the console, with no results. I disabled the onboard audio on the bios before installing the new card, however my ati video card has integrated sound, which I cant disable.... I used to get this exact same problem randomly with the onboard sound, but I just had to go to kmixer and turn up the "pcm" channel volume, which was set to 0, and I had sound again on my browser. However this card's pcm channel is at max and turning it up or down affects the whole systems volume, not just the browser's. Is it better to just reinstall the sound system, if so how could I do that.

I bought a Diamond Xtreme Sound 5.1 sound card because I had read online that this card was a good choice with Linux and came with universal driver software. I installed the hardware correctly (as it works with WinXP) but I'm not able to get it working with Ubuntu.

I have been using Ubuntu as my main OS on my desktops for a couple of years now. Started off with a HP with a Creative Labs XiFi soundcard, but am now using a Dell with a Creative Labs Audigy. Sound worked perfectly on the Dell since a clean install (about 7 months ago). I turned it on a week or so ago, and no sound! Even the little sound indicator in the notification area has gone.

After installing I was not able to get many of the audio programmes to work. After some reading, I realised that this was probably due to jack not starting.
I was unable to get jack to start normally but have been able to get it started with the playback only option selected. Programmes that use jack now work, however there is no sound once jack has been started. The sound does work in other programs when jack is not started. Strangely, I only have to open qjackctl for the sound to stop, and jack is not even started. Initially I thought these problems were due to my sound card not being supported, but I believe that alsa support was added for the via 1708 codec at some point. I found that support had been added in a document showing the changes between alsa versions; however I cannot find the exact model listed as a supported sound card on the alsa site.
I believe that altering jack settings could fix the problem, as i have been able to get audio to work in hydrogen by selecting plughw:0 but there is still no sound in other programs. I have tried altering many other settings but to no avail, however I do not really understand the meaning of the settings that i am adjusting.
Does anyone know what settings to adjust or know something else that might fix this problem so that sound works once jack has been started?
Also, would programmes that use jack such as audacity, hydrogen, and ardour work with pulseaudio as the main sound server if I were to install normal ubuntu - it might be worth seeing if my soundcard works with the puleaudio sound server
if this helps, here is the error message received when jack does not start when the normal duplex option is selected.
21:24:04.867 Patchbay deactivated.
21:24:04.868 Statistics reset.
21:24:04.886 ALSA connection change.
Cannot connect to server socket err = Connection refused
[Code].....
also, when i open alsamixer in the terminal for some reason the headphone part is greyed out, even when the sound is working before qjackctl is opened.

I've got a custom compiled kernel, just built on Lucid 10.04 from the kernel sources.System works fine, except for sound.When I log in as normal user and try to play a wav file using.The sound file is being played, but I hear no sound.However, when I do "sudo -s" and become root, execute the same mplayer command then I can hear the sound.My Sound preferences shows no input device and only "Dummy Output" as output device.On the generic kernel as came with the Lucid 10.04 CD, sound preferences shows different devices.The strange thing is: when I compiled my custom kernel, I changed nothing to the sound options in the kernel config file.

I have no sound, is it possible to restore the default sound drivers/settings in 10.04?It was work well before except for one issue, I couldn't get mic in for Rosetta Stone using wine. I have followed so many howto's to try and get Rosetta Stone working and then my sound working again.I think this is my main problem I upgraded alsa to "alsa-driver-1.0.23". I could easily be wrong about that assumption though.I have a Dell XPS M1210Ubuntu 10.04 64bitI think this is my sound card, "lspci -v | less"00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation N10/ICH 7 Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)Subsystem: Dell Device 01d7Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 11 Memory at efffc000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]Capabilities: <access denied> Kernel modules: snd-hda-intelBut I don't think it is being recognized,

For a couple of days ago, maybe a week or two I beguinne to get a 'snap-sound' in my compurt sound, like an eletrick charge or someting. I comes with about a minutes period. I resently find out that it came from the center-speaker. I run Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and have this sound-card: 00:09.0 Audio device: nVidia Corporation MCP73 High Definition Audio (rev a1)
My speaker system is Logitech X-530 I have located the problem to center-speaker, but the snap-sound only disappear if I mute the center, not lower the input, in the GNOME ALSA Mixer. I have tried to disconnect the antenna to the analoge-TV-tuner. Has anyoe a similar problem, and a trick to fix it? I don't know if it's related to any recent update of the system?

Playing a song works at first; then it quits after 1-5 minutes. If you select a different output device, it will work for another 1-5 minutes, but switching back to an already used up device will not play sound. Running 'sudo killall pulseaudio' resets everything and each output device works for another 1-5 minutes. This is on on 9.10.
Code:
lspci -v
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE/PE DRAM Controller/Host-Hub Interface (rev 02)
Subsystem: EPoX Computer Co., Ltd. Device 4002

Recently I have started using my netbook (Acer Aspire one D250) alot more due to travelling and I noticed that the mic didn't work. Headed to the Ubuntu forums and saw a thread about installing ALSA. So I did and now I have no sound. From what I can tell ubuntu is no longer picking up my sound devices but I'm sure. Hence why I am here. I need to get my sound working again (obviously) and then in turn get my mic working for mumble and other VOIP programs.

I have a fresh install of Natty and i'm having some issues getting sound to work. My laptop has a built in sound card which works just fine. However, i also have a usb 5.1 sound card which isn't working at all. Both devices show up in 'Sound Preferences' but when i select the 5.1 device as the output device sound doesnt work. I ran the alsa-info.sh script and the output can be found here.
