• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

I'm working on a video project and i'm having difficulty smoothing audio level between muliple clips. For example, we have a lot of interior automobile shots in a old vw beetle and we are trying to smooth out the sound of the engine without effecting the dialog. Any suggestions?

You'll need to export the audio and try to reduce the noise. Don't expect a miracle with an engine.

To export the sound, use the QuickTime expert share mode. Deselect video and steaming and set the audio to PCM, the rate to 48Khz, and the sample size to 16 bit.

Try Audacity which seems to have such an option.

Reimport the new audio file, which should still have the settings I mentioned above. Oh, I think unchecking the audio flag to the right of the video track will disable the old track.
