FLAC or ape spi encode/decode working with audio system?

Has anybody got a flac or monkey's audio spi actually working? I seem to be having problems when I try to getAudioInputStream (works for mp3) and I can't seem to find any examples on how to set it up so that I can encode from PCM to ape or flac.

OK, after much thrashing around it looks like I found a project that does most of what I need. That is cut the files up the way I want to and the ability to simultaneously create different encodings based from the input file. The project is called xuggle. http://www.xuggle.com/ It's reasonably well documented. It uses ffmpeg to do audio and video encoding in a standard manner. It is written in C++. I am assuming it will be faster. It appears to be better documented than the other plugins for the SPI.
Here is a big issue. ffmpeg does not support encoding of monkey's audio, which is a requirement for me, and the java flac implementation SPI does not support flac encoding. My current approach is to exec the encoding of monkey's audio from a command line executable ( like the subsonic project currently does), and use xuggle for everything else.
If anybody has any opinions or suggestions please comment

    my Extensis suitcaseX 11.0.4 is no longer working with my system OSX10.6.8, what is the best and cheapest font management software to use that's compatible with this system and my existing CS design software?

    If you upgraded to Snow Leopard, then it would seem that Suitcase 11 is not compatible with Snow Leopard and you'd need to buy Suitcase Fusion 3 for $99.95.

  • Unexpected problem: uncaught exception when working with audio files in Soundtrack Pro

    Hey,
    Whenever I double click an audio file in the timeline to work on it, I end up getting the Error message: "Unexpected problem: uncaught exception" and Soundtrack Pro eventually crashes.  Also, this happens when I try to work with audio files in the file editor.  I have Leopard and am using Logic Studio 8.  Any insight would be much appreciated. Thanks

    Didnt know how to remove the original clip from the STP arrange window - or whatever it's called in STPro.  So I could go no further in my perverse science experiment. 
    It also appeared that I could only import an aif but not a wav? 
    I gave up on STPro and did what I needed to do in Logic, which I use regularly.    
    Thank you for folowing up on this. 
    PS.  I used to use an old PowerPC version (1.0.3) of STPro and loved the way it visually showed the change in the waveform when you added each efffect.  It appears that the new version (3.0.1) does not allow you to do this anymore?  You can render or flatten the effects to see the final waveform, but then you are dead in the water and cant make changes?  
    Im such a newbie at STPro that I am probably not using it right? 

  • How to work with file system in linux within a JSF app?

    I use this line in my backing bean to log some events:
    FileHandler fhxml = new FileHandler("../webapps/MyWebApp/Log/MyWebAppLog.xml", append);
    fhxml.setFormatter(new XMLFormatter());That works fine in windows but when I deploy it in my Tomcat 6 in linux It doesn't work. How can I work with file system in linux?

    You should never use relative paths to access the filesystem. The path would be relative to the current working directory which is not per se the same in all environments. To convert a relative web path to an absolute file system path, you need ServletContext#getRealPath(). Use this absolute file system path in the java.io stuff. In a JSF application on top of Servlet API you can get the underlying ServletContext by ExternalContext#getContext().
    Alternatively, if the file is located in one of the default paths of the classpath or if its path is added to the classpath, you can also just use ExternalContext#getResource() or even #getResourceAsStream() using just the file name.

  • Version that will work with my system?

    OS = Windows XP Professional with (SP3)

    What would be the newest (full) version of Dreamweaver that would work with my system as shown above?
    I read that CS5.5 requires a 64-bit processor so I guess I have to rule that version out.

    The only version available is CS5.5 and it runs fine on Win XP.
    There's no 64 bit version of DW and nothing about that mentioned in the System Requirements
    http://www.adobe.com/products/dreamweaver/tech-specs.html
    Only After Effects and Premiere Pro are 64 bit at the moment
    http://www.adobe.com/products/dreamweaver/faq.html#64bit-support
    Download the free DW CS5.5 Trial and try DW out for 30 days (after that you have to make a purchasing decision)

    Although subscription version are now available, consider carefully if that purchasing model is suitable for your needs.
    All's well while you're paying your monthly or annual fee. When you stop paying, you cannot use the product.

  • Working with audio | Learn Premiere Pro CS6 | Adobe TV

    This movie introduces the robust audio tools in Premiere Pro. Abba Shapiro shows how to preview and trim audio in the Source Monitor. Whether it’s an audio-only file or the audio channel of a video clip, Abba shows how to enable sub-frame audio scrubbing and trimming. He also shows how to interpret clips to combine or separate stereo channels. At the same time, he introduces fundamental audio tools that are essential to working with audio in Premiere Pro.
    http://adobe.ly/To00IZ

    Is it possible to specify what audio channels to capture during capture from tape? It seems Premiere wants to mix the lavaliere mic and camera mic into a stereo track all the time, and then I have to modify audio settings and force it to mono in the project. In Final Cut pro 7, I am able to specify which audio tracks to capture, and this simplifies things in editing. I cannot see anywhere to do this in Premiere....

  • Working with audio

    Hi,
    I've got a couple upcoming projects that will largely be focussed around music, and animating photography in AE in time to the music. I've checked the help guide, but can't seem to get preview with audio functioning properly. Is this even possible in AE?
    At the moment, all I can do is preview sound "from this point onwards" using numpad "." but I need to see the video track simutaneously, in order to fine tune the animations. What's the best way to do this?
    Thanks,
    Danny

    Yes it is possible, you can work with audio and you can play it back of course, use the RAM preview button.
    But, AE is not the best program to work on Audio with. In fact most people I know and myself, avoid using Audio in AE at all costs. Now it's case of what you like, some don't mind audio in AE, but for most, the response times and additional features when working with multiple layers of audio just aren't good enough.

  • I upgraded Safari in my Mac (10.6.8 Leopard) but the new version does not work with my system so that I now have not a working browser. How can I solve the problem and/or install back my previous Safari version?

    I have upgraded Safari in my Mac, but the new Safari does not work with my system. So I find myself without any working browser. How can I solve this problem and/or install my previous Safari version?

    Reinstall Safari 5.1.10 for OS X 10.6.8: http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1569. Might do the trick.
    But, frankly, I don't think that simply reinstalling the old Safari will work because of all the peripheral, under the hood changes that happen when you upgrade from one version of Safari to another. Reinstalling 5.1.10 may be insufficient to turn back the clock. (This is the moment where a Time Machine or another form of full backup would save your bacon.)
    While you're getting a copy of Safari 5.1.10, get a copy of Firefox (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/desktop/), too, so that you have an alternate browser to use as you're sorting matters.

  • Is the Sony PVM-1351Q going to work with my system?

    I am looking into getting this for my boyfriend who is a video editor. I'm not sure exactly what he needs but I do know that as of now, he only has one monitor. He was telling me the other night that he needed another monitor for color correction and I found the Sony PVM-1351Q in my price range, used. At first I was just going to get him a regular high quality computer monitor but this seemed better somehow. Is this something an editor needs?
    I'm also curious if this will work with his system. I'm writing from his email right now.
    Any info on this would help or if you have another suggestion for what he might want, that would be great.

    This is a fine monitor for what he needs to do... color correct. It is a standard definition monitor, and would work great for DV projects.

  • I had a Tascam US 122 usb interface, but it didn't work with OSX Mavericks. What model would work with this? Would the US-144 mkii work with my system?

    I had a Tascam US 122 usb interface, but it didn't work with OSX Mavericks. What model would work with this? Would the US-144 mkii work with my system?
    Thanks!

    You didn't mention the kind of track in GB you are trying to create, but if you are connecting the keyboard with a guitar chord to the Tascam, you will need to set up a Real Instrument Track in GB to hear anything. If your keyboard has a midi out, use a midi cable to the midi input of the Tascam, create Software Instrument Track, and you will hear something. But with a guitar chord, it won't send the right signal to a Software Instrument Track. The headphone jack in the Tascam monitors the signal coming back to it out of GB (if you choose the US-122 as your monitor in GB's preferences), so you wouldn't hear your keyboard if the track is not set up correctly. It could be the drivers, but since you didn't mention the type of keyboard or the type of GB track, I thought that might be a possible answer as well.

  • Working with audio conversion

    there are lots of audio programs out there, each of them has more imperfections than substance
    so far my only foray into sound was long ago when mmsystem.h was the header de jour
    these days I am using ISO C++ more in favor of Win32 aside from system calls.
    audio is documented but I was more interested in format conversions etc

    I was noticing a lot of programs out there are outright pathetic
    eg I have a FLAC audio file for source and I want to convert to Apple Lossless or MP3 etc
    now audio is far from consistant, so I need to be able to work with all possible types like 8 and 16 bit samples and varying sample rates etc
    tags are more fun, id3 is fine for mp3 files but m4a and mp4 use atoms that are not well documented either

  • How do I get my iChat to work with Audio/Video?

    I have tried to read through the other posts on this topic to figure out what to do. I am quickly in over my head with changing configurations on ports and routers. It should not be this difficult. Until I bought this computer less than a week ago, I had used Windows machines which I would be able to figure out fairly quickly. I thought Apples were supposed to be easier to use? I have been working on this issue for two days now. I even called Apple twice. The first guy said what I was asking was beyond his knowledge, and I should log into this discussion board for an answer to my question. I told him I could have done that without paying for both Apple and Pro Care.
    The second guy worked with me at least and put me on hold several times to research. He had me try different things before telling me that I must not have enough bandwith on my ISP. He told me to call my ISP provider and ask them what the bandwith was. When I asked him what bandwith I needed to iChat A/V, he said he could not tell me what it was. If it is a bandwith issue, shouldn't the screen say so? Instead it tells me that I failed to accept the invitation that I initiated, or failed to accept the invitation after I pressed the accept button.
    I know the MBPs are new, and there will be growing pains, but I expected a little more assistence from Apple. I am working dilligently to learn how to use my new Mac and am getting completly frustrated with this A/V Chat problem. I even downloaded AIM on my MBP to see if that fixed the problem. The same thing happens. Either I initiate the video chat and the other person accepts, which causes my screen to say that I failed to accept the invitation. Or they initiate the invitation and once I accept my screen freezes saying that I failed to accept the invitation.
    From the looks of the other posts, this does not seem to be an Intel chip issue. Since AIM did not work either, it must not be an iChat issue.
    Thank you in advance for your help.
