Hello- Been exporting from Keynote 09 (5.3) to quicktime for years, and have just run into a problem I can't get around.
When I export to large quality, its seperating out the audio and video tracks. If I choose custom and mix, it still does it. No matter what I do, I can't get it to produce 1 quicktime movie.
Thoughts?
Thx.
what video CODEC and sound format did you use?
Hey Gary- I selected the default 'Full Quality: Large'. When that didn't work, I custom set it to:
Video: MPEG 4 FR= 24 KF = 12 1600kb
Audio: AAC, Quality: High, MPEG4AAC = Average and 128kb
Pretty straight forward. I tried mix, unmixed, self paced, manual, etc... no luck.
Thanks!
Using a recorded voiceover or placing a sound file in the soundtrack well of: Inspector > Document > Audio
will always produce a separate audio file when exported to QuickTime.
If you are using either of these methods for sound files, the only way to achieve a single QT file export is to use QuickTime Pro or other sound editing application and merge the two files together.
Hello- Thanks for the idea.
Its strange... It has a soundtrack in the track pane.
I solved the problem by doing the following:
- Keeping sound track in the track pane
- Doing a voice record over, but selecting a non-active audio source (Soundflower) so there really isn't anything be recorded.
- Outputting as timed (not manual)
This combined them. Seems buggy to me, but it works.
Thanks.
Yay Or Use Fixed Timing when you export. That will always produce your single Mov file. Like wise if select iPod it will automatically use fixed timing anyway. Enjoy.

Unfortunatly this does not work for everyone, it is well documented that Keynote produces separate audio and video files on some systems and not on others using identical workflows. Each user has to find what works on the combination of the versions of Operating System, Quicktime and Keynote installed on their Mac.
Bizarre. I know of this when you export using manual timing but everytime I do fixed timing it works on the 4 Macs I use. 😕
I have no issue using my machines here but was persuaded to look at the problem further. I tested this many times on different machines and discovered the problem first hand.
