esambell Posted July 7, 2019 Report Share Posted July 7, 2019 We’re trying to loop a seamless audio tracks (there are 16 individual WAV files). We’ve confirmed the tracks are seamless, but there is always a glitch at the end when played back in Watchout. The tracks are running on an auxiliary timeline. We’re on version 6.3.1. Are there any suggestions to make this work better? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member matkeane Posted July 8, 2019 Member Report Share Posted July 8, 2019 Are you looping by jumping back to the start of the aux timeline, or by placing the audio tracks in a composition and setting free-run/looping on that in an aux timeline? I have found that the composition method usually works better, but I haven't actually tried with a seamless audio loop. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esambell Posted July 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2019 We've placed the individual tracks into an aux timeline, then used free-run/looping to do the loops. Jumping the timeline I could definitely see causing problems, but using the loop it seems it should work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zackboyd Posted July 11, 2019 Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 I've never had much luck with audio looping - especially free running. When I've installed even clips that loop endlessly (think museum displays) I've found it more reliable to tie audio to video (even though it's not recommended), and then actually have the aux timeline loop rather than free run/loop. I've tried to stay away from doing anything like a seamless loop (or anything audio intensive) with watchout because I've never had great success. I'd love to know if anyone has any good tips/tricks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator jfk Posted July 11, 2019 Moderator Report Share Posted July 11, 2019 FYI the issue with audio looping is now a confirmed bug. With the summer break in full swing it may be a little while before it is addressed, hopefully in the next update. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiesemann Posted July 27, 2019 Report Share Posted July 27, 2019 For me, real looping video or even one still (jpg, png, psd...) WITHOUT freerun has never worked. So, either a realllllly long timeline or freerun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
