Re: No audio in Viewer

Hi everyone,

Very happy to be part of the Final Cut community :)

Gotta little problem though: if I click on a clip in my sequence and load it in the viewer, the clip plays no audio. There are little dots on the Viewer's timeline....

In the sequence, everything's OK and if I load the clip from my Browser, the audio's OK too. I'm sure it's some trivial detail.

Much appreciated,

Sharif from Montréal

Hi Sharif,

If you are loading your clip from the timeline into the Viewer and you have no audio, it means that the audio and video of the clip on the timeline are un linked.

Thanks Ken. But that's not the problem... everything IS linked and I just tried trashing my preferences, but same problem: no audio in my Viewer. It's frustrating!

when you single click the clip in the Viewer do both the Video and Audio elements of the clip highlight simultaneously?
when you double click the clip to load it into the Viewer are there any Audio tabs displayed?

No, there are no audio tabs displayed in the Viewer if I doubli-click on a clip in the timeline. ùIf I do it from the Browser, it's OK.

I still havent figured this out.

Tell us about your audio, how was it captured. Control click on a clip in the Browser > Item Properties > Format. What does it say about the audio, what type, audio sample rate, etc.
