How do I get good audio feed from DVD player to my MBP using an optic cable

I have successfully recorded audio off of concert DVD's using Sound Studio 3 by connecting my DVD player to my MBP using left/right outputs to a 35mm input. I purchased an optical cable, connected it to my DVD player and used a 35mm adapter to connnect it to my MBP input. All I get is a weird popping interferance type sound instead of clear audio. Any tips on what is going on? I have correct settings in system preferences (recognizes an optical connection) but all I hear is noise?
Thanks for any help!

It gives you a few options for audio, I generally save as AAC though you can rip as AIFF and then encode into just about anything with quicktime.

    I have a Mac connected to the internet through a modem. However, i also want my iPad to share this connection through the usb cable. Is this possible? If not, is there any other way i can get my iPad to share the internet connection from my Mac?

    It look like you can turn your mac into a hotspot and connect your ipad to it via wifi.

  • How can I get the audio only from a home made video

    I have several home videos saved on my iPhone and I am wondering if I can get the audio off of the videos to make an audio CD. I have a PC. Windows 7

    Put the clip in an iMovie Project. Then share the project using the SHARE menu,
    Use SHARE/EXPORT USING QUICKTIME
    Choose SOUND TO AIFF.
    AIFF is an uncompressed audio format. You can use iTunes or GarageBand if you need to convert it to AAC or MP3.

  • When copying Itunes to an external drive, how do I get iTunes to feed from the file on the external drive and not the computer/

    I've already copied my iTunes folder onto my external hardrive. I'm having problems getting iTunes to pull the information from the external hardrive and not the computer's internal one, though. Any suggestions on how to get it to work?

    iTunes works off of an ITL file in the iTunes folder
    instead of dragging the folder out of the external hardrive and onto the desktop just do this
    -hold shift key and double click iTunes to open it up
    -you will get a prompt asking to create a new library or choose library, click choose library
    -an explorer window will open up and you are going to navigate to the external hard drive and open the iTunes folder
    -in the iTunes folder you are going to find a file that doesn't look like a folder but a page with a corner folded on it that is your iTunes library file
    -double click the iTunes library file and your library will appear and you are good to go
    WARNING: this is a good method for making sure your music doesn't take all of your computer's storage but keep in mind if you remove the external hard drive from the computer you may have issues accessing the library example next to the song titles

    If iTunes purchases then transfer them to your iTunes library:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    The sync to your iPhone. Make sure that in the Books pane in iTunes for the iPhone the box that says sync audio books is checked.

    If not iTunes purchased go the the support site for the purchases and see how to get them in your iTunes library.

  • HT3819 How do I get an audio book from iTunes on to a Walkman via Windows?

    Yes, I am a newbie to this.

    My Daughter has created a an audio clip using iMovie and we need to burn into onto a CD or import to itunes/ipod. Is that possible?
    Sure is. "Share" the file using the "Export using QuickTime..." option and select "Sound to AIFF" to create an audio file. This file can then be added to iTunes, burned, or converted to more compact format for iPod, etc.

  • How can I get the background music from iMovie trailer, "Romance"to be used in another imovie?

    Is there any way to download the background music from the  iMovie trailer template "Romance" to be used in another iMovie of greater length than that of a trailer?

    In addition to Tom's good advice, another method is to access the audio file in iMovie's package contents folder.
    In Finder, in the Applications folder, right-click (or control-click) on iMovie.app and select Show Package Contents from the pop-up menu. Open the folder Contents>Resources. In that folder you will find components for each Trailer, including the soundtrack. The file you are seeking is named "SoundTrack - Romance.m4a".
    Copy then paste the file to your Desktop (don't otherwise mess with items in package contents folders!). Open the file in QuickTime - it is titled "Love Story FC2". Opening the Inspector in QuickTime (Window>Show Movie Inspector) reveals it as AAC format. If you wish, as Tom indicated, you can Export the file from QuickTime in other sound formats, such as AIFF. If preferred, you can import either the AAC file or the converted file to iTunes (or other audio apps) for use as required.

  • How do you get core audio to work with maverick. I'm using logic pro X

    i'm having problem with core audio and maverick

    It sounds as if you have altered the Tempo after recording the Audio ( but before selecting +Follow Tempo+ ).
    This would make your Regions adapt from the old tempo to the new one, therefore changing their timing.
    Here's a bit more info:
    Audio files recorded in Logic Pro can follow the project tempo—inclusive of tempo changes—set in the global tracks.
    +Note: These audio files can also follow the first key signature set in the global tracks.+
    As an example: If you record a bass solo at 100 bpm, you can change the project tempo to 120 bpm and the bass solo will automatically be played back at the new tempo.
    The function works with all audio files that were recorded in, or bounced/exported from, Logic Pro.
    The function only works in the parent project (the project the audio files were created in). If you drag a file recorded in a given project to another project with the Finder, the file can not follow the project tempo.
    Bounced or exported files can only follow the project tempo if the “Add resulting files to Audio Bin” option was enabled in the Export or Bounce window—prior to the bounce or export.
    Files copied between two projects retain the ability to follow the project tempo.
    The project’s tempo information is used to tag the beats in the recording. The function works best if your audio files match the project tempo as precisely as possible. The longer your audio files are, the more RAM is required for this functionality to work properly.

  • How do I get AC3 audio on my DVD

    Hi,
    Thank you for reading and offering your help.
    I want to make some DVDs using iDVD09. I have no problem creating and editing videos and burning DVDs using iDVD.
    Here is my problem. I want to create DVDs that will be duplicated by a company that says no Mpeg audio. They want AC3 audio.
    Could someone please help me out here. What do I do, so that I can create a video, use iDVD09 and have AC3 audio? Or if that can't be done, please tell me my options.
    Thank you very much.

    I don't have first hand knowledge of iDVD on this, but here's a post that suggests iDVD won't be able to solve your dilemma (unless the production house accepts PCM audio -- check this):
    http://www.mhvt.net/quicktime/eng/idvd.php
    DVD Studio Pro offers a greater range of audio encoding options, including AC3. You may wish to check Toast and other software, but if you like nice menus, you may be looking at Apple's Pro$$ software.

  • How do i get my surround sound to work with my laptop while using a hdmi cable for the video

    I have a Sony surround sound  system hooked up that works great. My X-Box 360 works with it and I can get my HP G60 to play audio files through the surround sound system with a red and white audio jack plugged into the back of my surround sound receiver, the red and white audio cord goes to a 3.5mm headphone jack that i plug into the headphone plug on the front of my computer. The problem occurs when I hook my HDMI cable into my computer and connect it to my Samsung Flat screen, the HDMI sound takes over and wont allow the sound to go through the headphone jack. My tv does not have any audio output plugs, and my suround sound reciever doesnt have an HDMI input. Is there a setting on the computer that will allow me to over ride the HDMI sound and direct the sound through the head phones? or is there an app or tool that will allow my laptop to recognize my suround sound system plugged into my laptop? I have been to best buy, walmart, radio shack and even my local car audio store to ask about this issue and everyone has a different solution, and so far none of them have worked???????? sincerley frustrated! please help!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

    Hello JaeRoc48,
    I understand that the sound is not working.
    Go to start.
    Type Sound.
    Select sound.
    Select speakers as default.
    Click OK.
    Let me know how everything goes.

  • How can I get sound back on my DVD player on my MacBookPro?

    My MacBook is new but I am in a foreign country with no access to help. I exercise with DVDs and as of today none of the DVDs have sound. The computer speakers are fine, as iTunes will play. But no sound when I play a DVD... not through the computer, the TV I hook it to, or using little external speakers. Everything was working fine as of yesterday. I have checked all hook-ups and mute buttons. When I go to systems preferences while it's hooked up to the TV via HDMI (which always worked before) I get the message that there "are no output controls on the selected device." I am at a loss and would appreciate some help. Thank you.

    First try resetting the PRAM:

    If that doesn't do it, reset the SMC:

    For the SMC reset, follow the instructions for a "battery you should not remove on your own"
    If those don't do it, come on back for more help.

  • When creating a book how can I get all the photos from an album to show up in the order they were in the album?

    When creating a book in iphoto, how can I get all the photos from the album I want to use to show up in the order that they are in the album?  When I tried to use the option to add my own photos instead of having the program "flow" them, they showed up all mixed up.

    iPhoto puts them in the book in chronological order.  So to get your photos from an album into an iPhoto book in the same order you will need to use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Date menu option and set them all to the same date with a 1 minute time difference between each.
