Semi-on-topic question... (Well, the other recent thread dealing with BeSweet went l33t so I figured this one was safer.)

When using BeSweet to convert a song to the supposed 24fps for good'ole Premiere, I ran into an interesting problem where the output from the lovely program was... well, it's hard to explain. Basically white noise and high-frequency chirps with little bits of the music intertwined is what I got. Horibbly grating on the ears. Certainly not good for even the most half-assed video.

Now, I swear to the forces above that I have followed the true path (Read <a href=http://www.a-m-v.org/guides/avtech31/>ErMaC & AbsoluteDestiny's Friendly AMV Guides</a>) and have everything setup correctly as the Holy Screenshot describes... Alas.

This poor soul seeks help! Any thoughts on what could be causing this heinous corruption of sound? (I like the way that sounds, heh) Or maybe I should just give up on the 24fps music thing. It does sound neat though... Yup, it's two in the morning. I'm delerious.

Well when playing around with the audio-framerate (although audio really doesn't have fps, but I'll stick to the term anyway), and you make it play faster (like when converting to 24fps for using like the Read <a href=http://www.a-m-v.org/guides/avtech31/>ErMaC & AbsoluteDestiny's Friendly AMV Guides</a> states), the audio is supposed to be a little noisier, or higher pitched (if that's the right word for it). Because when you take a waveform, and make it "shorter", it will just sound higher...

So there shouldn't be any problem when you're working with this audio file in premiere. When you eventually switch back to the 23.xxx fps, and you use your normal audio file all should be up-sync.

Hope this was of any help to ya!

Hmm... don't think I was clear enough.

It is not music anymore, it is random noise. Here's a taste. (360k wav) Watch your volume for those with sensitive ears.

A deeper rooted problem than just increasing the speed of the song a notch.

what was the input file and what version of besweet and the besweet gui are you using

MogDMan · Post by **MogDMan** » Tue Nov 19, 2002 4:25 am

The GUI is v0.6 b61 (25.10.2002) and the program itself is v1.4 it claims. The logfile also states it's using shibatch.dll which is v0.2 if that's relevent.

I've tried both plugging in the MP3 itself, a WAV created from the MP3 by WinAmp, and a WAV created by Adobe Premiere into the program. Both WAVs were at 44.1khz, 16bit stereo uncompressed.

Only thing I haven't tried yet due to time restraints and an annoying need to sleep is running a non-MP3 source WAV file through the program. I do have a feeling though that might not change anything.

Oh and there's the fact I don't readily have the CD the song is from anymore. That would require mail postage.
