To add to Norman’s post, make sure that Quantize to Frames is enabled as having this turned off can mess you up.

This (the complexity of PTT) is why I prefer to use Photoshop for my fancier text event creations 🙂

What does Movie Inspector in QuickTime player (Window – Show Movie Inspector) say about the audio?

[Mike Kujbida]

If you’re using the newest version of QuickTime, try an older one and see if that helps.

Norman, those are all great tools but this script is free and that’s hard to beat 🙂

Have fun with it Brad. Let me know if you have any questions.

Brad, this is done very easily with a script.
Here’s a link to one that was written by Edward Troxel several years ago.
Click on the event(s) to select it/them and run the script. Instant fade in & out 🙂

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/20488019/FadeEventInOut.js

It says audio track in the script but it works equally well for video.
It can be customized as desired. It defaults to a one sec. fade in and one sec. fade out. I changed some values so that I have a 1/2 sec. fade in & out as well as other variations.

To do this, change the lines that read as shown here to the desired vales and save it under a new name.
evnt.FadeIn.Length = new Timecode(“00:00:01:00”);
evnt.FadeOut.Length = new Timecode(“00:00:01:00”);

For example, a 1/2 sec. fade in & out would be changed to read
evnt.FadeIn.Length = new Timecode(“00:00:0:15”);
evnt.FadeOut.Length = new Timecode(“00:00:0:15”);

Have fun with it!!

John, there is a version of the software that is meant for a PC user.
I can’t remember if it was this or another site but I recommended it and the person who tried it was successful. As I said, it’s worth a shot.

[Mike Kujbida]

This is a long shot but Convergent Design has a piece of software on their site called File Converter – XDCAM .MOV to .MXF (PC) (it converts XDCAM EX/XDCAM 422 Quicktime .MOV to .MXF) that may be helpful.
You can find it part way down this page.

I’m not in front of my computer right now so this is from memory. When you go to render click the word Custom. On the screen that comes up select CBR and change the value to 8,000,000. You can save this as a preset by choosing a name in the box at the very top of this screen and saving it.
Sorry but the message you got doesn’t ring any bells with me 🙁
