Why ''original media'' has no sound?

Trying to figure out this mystery : When inside FCP, if I position cursor on a clip, it plays correctly. But if I right click and ''reveal in Finder'' then try to playback that (same) clip, in Quick Time, it plays without sound !... What's wrong ?


Not too practical as I may want to use those same clips in other programs (not only FCP....)


Is it a setting I might have set somewhere ? Just can't figure out...


Thanks,

Rob

Tom, looks like I'm getting somewhere here ! 🙂


I was now able to record (capture) image and sound, switching to Vixia HDV30 on camera (it was there) but either Pro Tools Aggregate on microphone (also work with built-in microphone, but looks like I also record sounds in the room... And if I choose the mic from the Vixia, it stops recording after a second...


But at least, the 2 others now give me sound on the Mac when playing back in QT (where it was recorded). Maybe I should try all other clips captured before with this setting...


Actually, I am not connected to the external audio interface that is set n this Mac (and rarely use it on this machine). So my guess is that Pro Tools Aggregate won't be a problem as long as I use the onboard audio, right ?


I'll keep experimenting and post for more,.


Must say a big thank you ! 🙂
