Audio video sync ?

Post by sadmac » Fri Dec 16, 2011 9:21 am

Hey everyone,

I am still on a powerbook g4 running Leopard 10.5.8

I want to present a 50 minutes video with the following specifications

1920 x 1080. QuckTime data codec is Apple ProRes422(HQ) or Apple ProRes422.

and synchronize it with a 50 minutes .aiff.

Anybody who had experience on this, can you suggest which is the best and safest way to do it? I do not trust the powerbook to be plugged into a firewire audio interface and to a projector with DVI cable and this big size of video. It will certainly crush I think, although the audio part is soft [no plug ins or manipulation in real time].

Can you tell me how it could be possible to do this with no risk of losing quality and synchronization? Using other laptop maybe? The 2 connected with ethernet? What software the laptop responsible for the projection will run and how it will be synchronized?

Is it possible to do this only with one laptop [for audio] and another device [blu ray player maybe] which could be perfectly synchronized? If yes, how??

Need help asap!

Thanks

Is the video and audio allready finished? No live tweaking?
If so, why cant you just edit them together in Final Cut Exp(or something), export it to the prefered format and play the whole thing as a quicktime movie?

Audio is ready, video not yet.

What you mean live tweaking? Play them both through Ableton?

I can't do an export to 1 quick time file, because for the audio I am using 10 outputs, meaning that Ableton is routed to 10 inputs of audio interface.

Thanks anyway, could you help me further?
