Does editing video files in Vegas Pro mess up my audio?
Does editing video files in Vegas Pro mess up my audio?
Here is Vegas Pro 16.0. It's a bit tricky to say exactly why but when I'm editing my Twitch streams, something weird happens after the first five or six seconds. The sound sounds okay at first, but then it gets messed up or corrupts. Even when I try opening that same file with Windows Movie Player and TV apps, the audio works fine without any issues. Also, this isn't the first time I've hit this problem.
i tried opening those files with VLC and ended up getting the same weird result as vegas: 5 to 6 seconds where everything looks fine, then suddenly nothing happens. I thought maybe the audio was a copyright issue, so i checked on twitch's video producer page and found that the stream wasn't muted there either.
It's hard to tell without watching the stream file. If you could send it somewhere, we'd know what's going on. My guess: open the file in Audacity to see the whole stream play. If it looks and sounds right, save it as a simple .wav file. That way no extra compression happens until the video is ready. Then try opening that new .wav file in Vegas and replacing the old one with it.
I listened to your tips, but things are getting weirder than usual. From a 1:39:15 video clip, Audacity only shows me the first 10 seconds. I tried with two different streams and got the same thing. P.S.: Here are two drive links that have info about the stream's sound. Image 1 Image 2
If you can share links to these videos, we could download them to see what's happening there. I am not a twitch user so I don't usually watch their live streams or get much info from them right now. The only ones I've seen are already edited clips that have been copied onto other sites. Maybe you could tell us how you record those things? It might show us how they break when being moved around. If I want to record stuff like this I use a program called Replay Media Capture which saves videos in the original format. But I don't know if it works for Twitch. If anyone knows about a free way to test twitch streams without paying, we could try that together.
I know nobody except the owner of the streams can get them. I use OBS to record my live streams, but I don't save any files there. When I want to upload an old stream to YouTube, I just go to the Twitch panel, click download, and that's all. It might not be helpful, but in another message I attached two screenshots showing the audio specs. Downloading from Twitch
