[Solved] VLC-Pulseaudio Volume Problem

Hello,
my problem is the following (using VLC, Pulseaudio, KDE).
If I change the volume in VLC, this volume setting with stick to the system audio settings even after VLC is closed. Example, I set the volume to 200% in VLC, the system volume will also stay set to 200% (you cannot see this, it will show 100% but actually it isn't) and audio in other programs will become weak quality while playback.
To solve this problem I have to touch the system audios setting slider and it will jump to the correct setting. Even VLC itself will stick to the previous now 'wrong' audio when I choose the setting inside VLC to put the volume setting at each start to 100%.
i guess it has something to do with VLC, because other video and audio players doesn't produce this problem.
I found a post from before who had a similar issue, but it did not help me.

Thank you.

Is it this issue? Or does the fix given here solve the problem?
Clients alter master output volume (aka volume jumps to 100% after running application)

[SOLVED] PulseAudio Volume Control won't start anymore

Hi!
As described in the title, PulseAudio Volume Control won't start from one day to another.
I have no clue where this could come from or what I could have done wrong to create this issue.
Here is how it looks like:
When I start it, it seems to be loading but after some time it just disappears and nothing happens.
I also have the same looking issue with KMix and Google Music Manager.
Do any of you have an idea where this could be coming from?
Thanks for your help :-)

Anyone know when Apple will bring out a patch to fix the volume problem you get on mac mini after downloading OS 10.8.5

Anyone know when Apple will bring out a patch to fix the volume problem you get on mac mini after downloading OS 10.8.5?

Only Apple knows the answer to whether or not there is a verified problem and if so when will a fix be released. As is their custom, Apple does not talk about these things and the rules of these communities prohibit speculation about future udates or upgrades. It is probably safe to say if a fix is deemed necessary it will be called OS X 10.8.6.

Trying to backup despite Volume problems

I appear to have some volume problems with my internal HDD.
When I try to diagnose and fix it with Disk Utility the error is:
"Incorrect number of thread records" & "Invalid volume directory count"
Though the volume needs repairing, disk utility can't do it (nor can TechTool Pro http://www.micromat.com/index.php?option=com_simpleboard&Itemid=42&func=view&id= 525&catid=6)
Since I can't fix it I think I understand that it would be best to back things up, reformat the drive.
My question is esssentially academic. Would backing things up copy the volume problem I'm experiencing? or would it even allow me to copy things correctly? And how does one know what file was damaged or corrupted?

Good questions. Repairing the HD problem is something Disk Warrior could possibly correct. It's the best app. for resolving directory problems.
Did Disk Utility specifically tell you that it couldn't fix the drive, or did it simply report the error. If it's the latter, I would rerun Disk Utility as many times as necessary to get a clean run (no problems). This may not be possible given what was reported in your Micromat referenced link, however, it's worth a try.
Given the current state of the directory, you would not be able to create a clean clone backup of the drive. I suspect you would see an error during the copying. You could though drag/drop specific folders/files to the drive to the extent your HD cooperates. IMO, a "must" for any maintenance strategy.
Do you have a current cloned backup of your system. If you do, you could always copy it over the existing drive. If it is "somewhat current", you could drag/drop important data files on your computer's HD to either external media or another parition on the external, then recopy the clone to the HD. Afterward, move the data files back to their original locations.

Any way of finding out how Apple will solve the Aperture / ACR problem?

Has anyone out there gotten any comments from Apple support or other people "in the know" about how Apple is going to solve the Aperture / ACR problem, and any potential time frame?
Of course, Apple is going to work on problems with its own RAW conversion; that goes without saying. But does anyone have any knowledge of whether Apple is going to open up the ability for Apple to send RAW, unconverted images to Photoshop, so that ACR can handle them?
I think knowing this now is pretty crucial. I am willing to live with the pain Aperture is going to impose on my workflow, in exchange for the file organization benefits it provides, IF I know that I'll be able to use Aperture with ACR soon (near term). But if Apple is going to just tinker with the RAW converter, and not attempt to send RAW files to ACR, then as someone else posted in another topic, this could be a long wait, and other companies have taken years to hone their RAW converters.
This is kind of my last-ditch effort to keep Aperture around, and build my workflow around it. If I know that within a month or two at the most, I'll be able to be using ACR directly when editing new versions, then I'll absorb the pain until then. But if I am looking at waiting six months for it (several man years), or riding out the process of Apple trying to get their own converter fixed, then as much as I don't want to, Aperture is going to get returned or hit eBay.
Does anyone have any idea on this? I've held up my projects for the past week trying to reorganize my workflow to work with Aperture, and I've got to pound the gavel, make a decision, and pursue a direction. Knowing what direction Apple is going to take with this makes all the difference in the world in what I do.
Thanks in advance for any info you can pass on.

This "Open External Editor from Master NEF", versus open from a dynamicaly created version is, I have decided, crucial.
I am getting less clumsy with the interface, but I simply can not get all white balance, and noise reduction done on my best available light shots.
ACR in CS2, and a subsequent "Neat Image" scrubbing is excellent for this.
The automatic association within a stack, of the resulting flattened file would be a big difference. I agree a formal statement from Apple would make me more inclined to really commit to Aperture for all my work.
Going one step further, it would be nice to keep the layers on the round-trip Master file, even if you would work with a dynamicaly created version of the returned "master" within a stack. It would occupy more disk space, but would do so only for those images where the user has made a quality decision.

Audio volume problem in Premiere elements 12

How can I reduce or increase volume in the soundtrack???

Sorry for my English but I hope you understandthe following.
I have for the moment no time to go through your comments and ideas, but I certainly will do the coming days.
For good order I’ll explain my problem more in detail: (working with Window’s 7)
When I use Tools>smartmix, I change Audio 1 in “forground”, Comments in “foreground”, Soundtrack in “Background”, Audio 2 and 3 in “Background”. So far so good!.
Next step is: edit>preferences>audio>smartmixer, and the only thing I can change is “milliseconds (i.e. 10)”, “mix pause (i.e. 5 sec)”, and “reduce background in % (i.e. 90%)”. So far so good again!
The volume sound of the audio track is indeed reduced when there is a conversation in the clip, but not enough, so still too loud, certainly when the conversation stops, the volume sound is far too loud.
What do I want:
a) Remain the original volume from the conversations etc. in the clip, so don’t change anything in here.
b) Reduce the volume to the level I like!
I realise, this looks an easy and simple question, but I can’t fide out hou too lower only the volume in a soudtrack!
Waiting your reply and many thanks in advance

Does upgrading from Premiere Elements 12 to 13 solve the Organizer thumbnail problem?

Thumbnails do not show up after importing clips into Premiere Elements 12 Organizer. I've tried right clicking on a clip and telling it to recreate the thumbnail but it doesn't work. I've tried refreshing and repairing the catalog. I've even started a new catalog and reimported the files. The system says it's creating thumbnails but they still do not show up. Does upgrading from Premiere Elements 12 to 13 solve the Organizer thumbnail problem?

listiak
That is one of those questions best answered by evaluating Elements Organizer13 with your specific files in your specific computer environment.
Each of the Elements Organizer versions often appears to carry along its own baggage.
One of the things that came up about Elements Organizer 13 thumbnails recently was a problem with files with MPEG2
video compression. The Adobe word on this was that this is only an Elements Organizer 13 tryout issue...supposed not to exist
in the purchased version.

Continuing Speakerphone Volume Problem

After anxiously waiting three months for a firmware/software update that would fix the speakerphone volume problem I updated my two iPhones to v. 1.1.1. Unfortunately, neither of my iphones showed any increase in speakerphone volume.
We spoke to an Apple employee at our nearest Apple store (also the biggest and busiest Apple store in our area), and found out that if we wanted a speakerphone that we could use we should bring the phones in and have the Genius verify the low volume and give us a "part substitution" (which meant an opened iphone).
Instead (for various reasons) we decided to buy another IPhone, figuring "what are the chances that we would get three iPhones with very low speakerphones?" Also figuring that this very busy Apple store would have the latest IPhones available, with the speakerphone volume fixed. Apparently three is not the charm. Our new iPhone's speakerphone volume was just as low as our other two iPhones.
And our newest iPhone had the 1.1.1 update on it from the start. So I guess we will now try option (1).
For those of you who have had problems with the speakerphone volume and brought the IPhone back to the Apple store, were you able to find one with good speakerphone volume? I sure hope so!
Thanks!
Ashley

When people started complaining initially about the speakerphone issue. I brought my phone to my local Apple Store and the guy at the Genius Bar and I compared the speakerphone volume with the display phones. We did notice that mine was quieter than the rest. Because my phone was past the 14 day return period, my phone was sent out.
In all honesty, if there was an improvement, I would say it's very minimal. Long story short, I was able to swap out my phone for a brand new one and the speaker volume is relatively the same. Did the firmware 1.1.1 make it any louder? Not really. What I do notice is that the alert volumes have improved and that volume went up. But the speakerphone volume remained unchanged.
Personally this phone wasn't built for speakerphone use and you'll do better buying a bluetooth headset or a speakerphone instead. It's acceptable in a quiet environment but trying to use the speakerphone in public is out of the question.

I wonder if someone could help me...
I try to install pulseaudio-git from aur because a solution proposed (in the seconde link) is to simply remove the line 807 from the sink_input.c file but compilation fail.
I use a 64bits architecture.

[SOLVED] VLC no audio, Volume stuck at 0%-5% only when playing FLV

Hello Friends,
I've had this issue for a while, only on one laptop (I run Arch on everything)... VLC will play my .FLV files, video works, playback works but no sound. The volume gets stuck and can only be changed by 5% (If VLC was running before and volume was at 60% I can change to 65 and back to 60. If VLC was closed and I open a FLV file it is always at 0% volume and will only go up to 5%).
I get the following error every time I try to adjust the volume.. Other file-types work fine.
[tkh@tk6410 ~]$ vlc
VLC media player 2.1.4 Rincewind (revision 2.1.4-0-g2a072be)
[0x18a7118] main libvlc: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface.

Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I have concluded that this must've been the FLV files itself. They were downloaded using FireFox plugin VideoDownloadHelper

No idea... never play flv directly. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/auto-reencode
