A few questions - audio quality, and remote capability

1) What is the audio quality of songs streamed from airplay?
2) Is there any way to change the volume of a song using the iphone/ipad remote?
Thanks!

Hello..
Not sure about the actual specs of Airplay SQ.
Using the ATV2 to access your iTunes Library you must control the volume with the volume control of the device through which you have the audio routed.. ie TV or Stereo. There is no volume level on the ATV2 remote or in the interface of the ATV OS that I can see.
Using the ATV2 as a speaker for iTunes from your Mac or PC you can control the volume through iTunes on the Mac or PC.
Using the Remote App on iPhone 4 or other device you can control iTunes on your Mac or PC. In addition you can select the ATV2 as a speaker for iTunes directly from the Remote App and in turn have control of the volume from the iPhone 4.
I like the last way best. Easier to navigate library, make selections and control volume all from anywhere within range of your wifi connection.

  • Can I modify the Export to... iTunes settings for better audio quality and compression?

    I am working on some Music Videos to DJ at a party with, I notice that when I export them as .mov files with Final Cut HD Express, they have 320 kbps and 44.100 kHz in the audio compression settings. Once I export them in Quicktime 10.2, using the File / Export to... / iTunes drop down menu, the Second, (ipad, iphone 4, & AppleTV) setting (not using HD, so the Mac and PC tab is not an option.) The final exported file, that plays great in itunes, appletv, ipad, etc. has a reduced quality audio of Bit Rate of 159 kbps (instead of 320 kbps) and Sample Rate of 32.000 kHz (instead of 44.100 kHz). Is there anyway to change these preset settings somehow?
    The Formats on the File / Export / menu are even less dinamic?
    I also noticed that some of the Music videos I purchased from the itunes store some years ago, have a 256 Kbps and 44.100 kHz setting. Which is better quality than the ones exported from Quicktime 10.
    I thought maybe with Quicktime 7 Pro, I could fine tune all the presets, but it got too complicated for me, might this be an option? What would the settings be?

    Your question basically has too facets. The first is the quality of the source audio in terms of sampling rate and data rate. Under normal circumstances you don't want to export the audio using a sample rate or per channel data rate that is lower than your original source if you are trying to maintain the quality as high as possible and, on the other hand, you don't want to use settings greater than the source values since they increase the final file size without improving the quality of the audio.
    The second is the workflow. Since you indicate you are using FCE HD for editing, then using QT X to re-export the data seems somewhat redundant. While it has been many, many years since I last used FCE HD, if I remember correctly, you have both "Export QT Movie" and "Export using QT Conversion" options. The first option takes the audio and video format in which you are editing and merely copies the edited data in that format to a new MOV file container. On the other hand, the second option allows you export the edited data format directly to a user selected compression format using user selected options (but does assume the user knows how to best use these options). These are, BTW, the same export options available in QT 7 Pro.
    I thought maybe with Quicktime 7 Pro, I could fine tune all the presets, but it got too complicated for me, might this be an option? What would the settings be?
    What is so difficult here? If the source is DVD stereo quality (usually 48.0 KHz @ 192 Kbps then set your output for stereo 48.0 KHz @ 192 Kbps. If you wish to save a bit of file space, the you can use 48.0 KHz @ 160 Kbps but that is normally as low as I go. As to setting combinations in QT 7 Pro, once you set the sampling rate, the application becomes cuntextually adaptive and will only allow you to select data rates that are "standards" compliant and non-compliant ones are automatically greyed out. Rendering quality settings are self-explanatory. These are the basics if you are using a preset option like the "Movie to MPEG-4" export option. If using more complex options like the "Movie to QT Movie" option, then you will need to also consider how you plan to use your file to select the correct encoding strategy. For instance, a constant bit rate is good for optical media from the standpoint of providing a constant flow of data to the player. Unfortunately, this is not very efficient since it forces the quality to vary as it maintains the constant data rate. A variable but contarined data rate is also good for optical media or fast start online files but allows the data rate to vary between user selected data rate excursions and thus provides improved quality over the constant data rate strategy. The variable data rate allows the user to target a specific level of audio quality and will then allow the data rate to vary as needed to maintain a constant level of quality. This option is better suited for playback on a computer since the bit rate can vary greatly in magnitude. The average setting allows the user to target a specific average target data rate but allows it fluctuate as the encoder applies predictor-corrector adjustments. This option, like the constant data rate option, is good for average complexity content when creating a target file of predictable size but can somtimes have problems towards the end of the file if the content suddenly becomes more complex than predicted.

    I would rarely recommend using the full quality slider setting. This is more of a redundancy setting forcing the encoder to recycle through certain encoding routines in an effort to improve quality without increasing the data rate. You would like do better to increase the video data rate limit and decrease the quality slider to something in the 50 to 80% range. You also indicate the files are 853x480. Such files are frequently the result of anamorphic widescreen MPEG-2 or DV source files. If so, I would normally recommend retaining this anamorphic strategy by encoding the H.264 video at the same 720x480 matrix dimensions and allowing the player to properly display the files at their targeted aspect ratio. This strategy will either allow for slightly better quality at the current video data rate setting or allow the user to retain the current level of quality using a slightly lower data rate which, in turn, means a slightly smaller final file size.

  • A few questions about MacBooks and Parallels Desktop.

    I have a few questions about MacBooks and Parallels Desktop.
    1) I understand I need at least 1GB of RAM to run Parallels Desktop but what about the hard drive, is the stock 60GB drive big enough?
    2) Related to question 1, even if it was big enough to allow me to install and run Windows would the 60GB drive be enough if I wanted to install a Linux distribution as well?
    3) This has nothing to do with Parallels Desktop but thought I'd ask it here anyway, do Apple Stores carry just the stock MacBooks, or do they carry other configurations?
    Thanks
    Keith

    1. Depend on how intensive you use that HD for saving data on both Mac OS and XP. For standard installation on both OS X and XP, the space of 60 Gb is enough.
    2. Same answer as no 1. You can install all three on that HD space, but the extra spacce available will be less and less for your data. You can save your data on external or back up on cd/dvd and erase it from the HD to keep the free space.
    Remember to leave at least 2 or 3 Gb for virtual memory usage.
    3. Just call them, maybe they don't have it in store stock, but by appointment they might configure one for you before your pick-up date.
    Good Luck

  • Few questions on Templates and Favorites

    Experts,
    Few fundamental questions on Templates and Favorites...
    1) Can Favorites be shared with other users?
    2) Can Templates be transported across systems (Dev or QA or PRD) ?
    3) Can Templates be shared across planning area ( Yes, KF names are same across planning area?
    Any insights appreciated!!!
    Thanks
    Krishna

    Hello Krishna
    1. No, favorites are user specific and are not shared. Templates are.
    2. There are no transports in the traditional sense in S&OP. So a Template can't really be transported. What you can do, however, is open a Template in DEV, for example, then log off and log back on - just this time to QA or PRD. This assumes you have the same planning area, KF etc.in each system. Now you can add it to the templates in QA or PRD ... this is how you get it from one system to another.
    3. I believe they are not shared between planning areas. If you make a planning area copy, I think they might come over but if you built a new PA2 from scratch, the ones you have in PA1 won't be there. If you want to get a planning view template from one PA to another, you basically follow the steps as in my answer to your second question. Again, for sharing a planning view Template between Planning Areas the attributes, time profiel and key figures you use have to be the same.
    Hope this helps,

  • Audio Quality and loudness

    Apple please fix the slight hitch in the Audio Quality.
    My main problem is that the ipod classic is too loud with my er-4p's. This headphone is low independence for portable products, but even on the lowest volume, turning it to zero (well what should be no volume), produces sound output to loud for listening. Could you explain to me how I fix this (perhaps use european firmware) or apple can fix this in the the next firmware upgrade. Otherwise I will return my product. I cannot use it at this volume.

    I've noticed this too - what an unusual problem.
    Typically when I listen at work, I keep the volume low - but now turn it all the way down - to 0 - and it's just a touch loud. I imagine with Really Good headphones - it would be too loud.
    Have you thought of just using the apple buds? You lose the sound. . . but it's not as loud I expect.
    I only use my good phones in my car. . . with the windows down - or on airplanes or travelling, etc.

  • New to Arch(64), with a few questions about Xorg and more

    Hello and Happy New Year everyone,
    I'm a user that has just recently decided to try and switch to Linux as the main OS for all things that don't concern gaming. I've been using the "server side" of Linux at work for a couple years now, but when it comes to its desktop part I consider myself not fully competent yet. Under recommendation of a friend I decided to give Arch a shot, and I can say that it really suits my philosophy on how an OS should be like.
    I have a few issues I'm currently struggling with that I couldn't seem to solve by looking on my own: as they are mostly minor and shortly described, I thought about packing them up in one single thread to avoid making too many. I've used i686 as testing grounds and am now using x86_64, but most of my problems apply to both.
    Here's my hardware, for reference:
    - Intel E8400 CPU (3GHz, dual core)
    - Asus P5Q-E motherboard
    - 2 GB DDR2 800 RAM.
    - nVidia 8800GT video card with 512MB memory
    - Samsung SyncMaster 713BM flat panel, connected via DVI cable
    - Creative SBLive! 5.1 OEM card (dug up for the occasion since it has hardware mixing)
    I'm using the latest Xorg from the repos, nvidia proprietary drivers, ALSA, Xfce4 + compiz-fusion, and SLIM as my login manager.
    And here are my headaches:
    - (32/64) A similar issue to the one I just mentioned: compiz-fusion doesn't seem to stick around as my window manager, even though I manually set it as per Method 2 from this wiki page. Although it did work for a while, after some time (perhaps after installing some package? but I didn't really install anything X related) it simply stopped working. To get my windows, I have to manually run fusion-icon after login.
    - (32/64) I'm using MPlayer with libass to watch my favourite anime, but sometimes MPlayer freezes up, forcing me to xkill it. Disabling ASS embedded subs yields error message 11, something about unsufficient resources. Disabling subs entirely prevents MPlayer from crashing. Oh, the errors only happen on specific points of certain videos, and all the videos work just fine under WinXP with MPC or VLC.
    - (32/64) Why do anti-aliased fonts under Linux still look so bad, even though I installed the appropriate packages suggested in the wiki? I don't mind disabling anti-aliasing entirely and just using Verdana, but is there some trick to it besides setting sub-pixel hinting under rclick->settings->user interface?
    - (32/64) My SBLive might be 5.1, but I'm only using the front connector as I use either two stereo speakers or headphones all the time. But the volume setting in applications (such as MPlayer) seems to affect the PCM meter of ALSA's mixer, putting it over 0 dB gain and generating sound distortion.
    - (64/don't know if 32 too) Why does Compiz's framerate drop so badly when I push alt-tab? I'm using the default application shifter, hardware acceleration, and there should be no reason why the framerate should drop like that (expecially considering that wobbly windows or cube rotating don't affect my performance at all). I've read around the net about very similar occourances with the task switcher, but I've found no real solution.
    - [SOLVED] (32/64) The first obstacle I came across was that I couldn't set my screen refresh any higher than 60Hz when I actually wanted 75Hz: I solved this by setting the vertical refresh to 76.0-76.0 in xorg.conf. However, for some reason this setting doesn't stick on reboot: I have to log in and manually run rclick->System->NVIDIA X Server Settings for it to apply.
    - [SOLVED] (64 only) The 32 version of Xorg was fine, but for some reason I'm not getting the correct keyset (Italian) under X, while everything works in vc. I think I read something about disabling a module called "keydev", but is this really the way to go?
    - [SOLVED] (64 only) Although I can hear sound in just about every application, the 64 bit version of Pidgin doesn't "ring" on received messages even though the associated option is enabled.
    I kindly thank you in advance for your assistance: I will provide any configuration files that might be needed to help me out

    Ah, I'd rather not involve Qt. Besides, isn't SMPlayer simply a frontend to Mplayer (who already has GMplayer integrated into it, IIRC)?

    For all the three combos, I have "driver default" selected. The other option is "default"; I tried to manually type "Master" into the mixer channel field, but then gmplayer's windows and my Xfce taskbar started blinking, so I knew I had just "crossed streams".
    Regarding NVIDIA X Server Settings, running "usr/bin/nvidia-settings --load-config-only" at login is the only way to apply the settings "automatically".
    I've slapped that on my ~/.xinitrc before "exec startxfce4". Thanks in advance, going to test it now!
    About the refresh and non-decorated windows issues (which *appears* to be solved after I've wiped the xfce-session cache), I've been thinking: could they somehow be related the login manager I've chosen, SLIM?
    P.S. New question: is there any way to enable the ALT+num126 for ~ keyboard behaviour I'm used to under M$ environments?

  • Audio Redirection and Remote Desktop Web Access

    I recently deployed a 2012r2 Remote Desktop solution. I have a collection published for remote desktop sessions and have configured it to allow all redirection shown in the interface. However when users connect through Web Access, they do not get audio recording
    redirection.
    Is there a way to enable this through Remote Desktop Web Access?

    Hi,
    Glad to hear that it is up now. Please keep us informed when the issue is resolved.

  • A few questions about VoiceOver and Safari

    1. Let's say I'm reading, item by item, a website that's basically a long text document. When I have interrupted reading to do something in another application or the menu, can I quickly find the position in the text where I jumped out? It would be enough to be able to jump to the paragraph in question.
    2. Sometimes while browsing a website the VO cursor suddenly lands on an item which is outside the HTML content, such as the close or zoom button. Moving the VO cursor around a bit can sometimes spontaneously bring it back into the HTML content. How can VO decide to stop interacting and then restart interacting without me giving those commands? Has anyone else noticed this behavior and maybe found a way to fix it?
    3. How can I tell VoiceOver to read the current web page from the VO cursor position through to the end without me having to jump item by item? I know that stopping interacting with the HTML content and then pressing VO+A will read the entire web page, but I explicitly would like to have it read from VO cursor onwards.
    4. How can I go back one web page and quickly find the link I clicked? For example, a web page might contain ten links called "link 1" to "link 10" which are scattered around the page. Clicking on link 5 brings me to another page. How can I go back and quickly land on link 5?
    Thanks in advance for helpful answers!

    Here are a few suggestions:
    1. Instead of reading using the VO-A command, try reading group by group. You can then set a hotspot (VO-Shift-number) to which you can return by hitting VO-number.
    2. Try unchecking the "Mouse cursor follows VO cursor" checkbox in the Web category of VoiceOver Utility. However, this is a known bug.
    3. Set a keyboard shortcut in the Keyboard and Mouse pane of System Preferences in the All applications category for the command Start Speaking Text. This is a useful thing to have as it works whether VoiceOver is on or off. While there, set a shortcut for Stop Speaking as well, as it too will come in handy. Both these commands are in the Speech submenu of the Services menu command.
    Then, triple-click with the physical mouse or trackpad button. Navigate to last item using VO-Shift-end (or VO-Shift-fn-right arrow on a laptop or wireless keyboard). This is best done in DOM mode, since you do not then risk getting stuck inside a group. Make sure your end target text is not a link, so if it is, navigate to the previous non-link text. Hold down Shift and click with the physical mouse button. You should then have a block of highlighted text. Hit your Start Speaking Text shortcut and listen. To stop it, hit your Stop Speaking shortcut.
    Unfortunately you can't restart at the position you stopped at with this method; you simply have to navigate to the point at which you left off, then redo the selection process.
    4. Make sure that the checkbox "Press Tab to highlight each item on a webpage" in the Advanced tab of Safari's Preferences is set. If you remember the name of your link ("link 5" in your example), when you return to the page containing it, you can use the Link Chooser menu (VO-U) to find your link again. You can then use Tab to move to the next link on the page. Alternatively, you can simply use Tab all the way; each link will in turn be spoken, and if it has been clicked previously, VO will add "Visited" after the name.

  • A few questions about Canvas and other Image related stuff.

    I am just starting to play around with Canvas in the hopes of using it to make a little game (not an applet) in my spare time. I have gotten a ball to bounce around the screen and switch colors when it bounces without too much work. (hooray for me!).
    I was wondering:
    1) If you always have to repaint the whole area of the canvas, or can you repaint sections of the screen?
    2) Can there only be one canvas per frame, or if you can have more, like say, one for each sprite (I tried in my own simplistic way but the second canvas overrode the first when I added it to the frame) or do you have to lay out all the sprites in one canvas every time before you paint?
    3) Is Canvas the best platform for rendering my animations and doing collision detection, or are other ways of presenting the images better? By better I mean lower usage of resources, higher speed, accessibility of events that occur. (I have read in the mindprod java glossary "[Canvas] receives all the raw mousing events. Panels, in contrast, see only a few.")
    4) In a call to paint which tells it to display some images which are much larger than the frame the canvas is in, is time and effort spent working on those pixels that aren't displayed or does it take about the same amount of resources as for images that fit in the frame since the same amount of picture is actually displayed?
    5) Is there any convenient way to layers with canvas besides just controlling the order in which the images are painted. (I will admit I haven't searched for this information yet, because I just thought about it.)
    6) Is there any other information you guys would care to bestow on me?
    If any of this question is ridiculous, obvious, ignorant or any other negative adjective, then I apologize. I will continue messing around in the meantime.
    Thanks

    Okay, well I got it to work by drawing them both to the same canvas. duh I guess.
    Can you have more than one canvas in a frame? How do you set the size if so.
    How do I implement the z-order? I thought of doing it manually by sending the paint method a list of objects to paint and manually managing the order of that list. Would that be an acceptable way to do it?
    Should I only be trying to paint to one canvas? What I would like to do is have several canvases with transparent backgrounds so that I can draw different layers in the same frame. That way flying stuff would be painted on a different canvas than stuff on the ground, and then putting it all in a frame would tie the pictures together into a scene. Kind of like how they do distance in animation by having different layers of drawings on clear plastic that they can move at different speeds to give the illusion of depth.

  • 2 questions: Video quality and another...

    Hey everyone! Newbie to the forum but I have two questions
    1.) I decrypted DVD and converted them (along with other videos) to .MP4 files using Videora iPod Converter. Yet the video quality when connected to the TV is not as good... is there a way I could change this? Perhaps a different program?
    2.) I was also wondering, since you can see the video playing on TV, is there a way you could show the menus and everthing else (games, notes, etc.)??? I have iQuiz and that'd be fun to do on the TV!
    Thanks much. Love the products Apple!!!

    In general, the only thing you can get to appear on a television screen is video content. There are a couple of third party docks that will show some menus (Griffin, DLO). But currently, not notes or games.

  • Few questions about partitioning and formatting in Windows 8

    Hello,
    I'm very shortly after a Windows 8 reinstall and I want to make use of this moment to finally understand partitioning and formatting in Windows 8.
    Before using Windows 8, I was an XP user for 5 years and I actually never bothered myself with formatting my main system partition, that's probably why my computer ended up working like a slime for the last years. Anyway, by now I have been using Windows 8 for a year.
    Three weeks ago I faced a system-related problem with my laptop (IdeaPad Y580) which prevented it from peacefully shutting down. A good friend of mine (XP user for his entire life, and now Windows 7 newbie user) told me, that I should keep all my non-system stuff on separate partition and that I should do the main system partition format from time to time to keep my PC out of trouble. It is sure that he took his knowledge from using XP, and here's my first question - does this method apply to Windows 8?
    I mean as far as I know, back then, in XP, partitioning was possible only during Windows installation, and now, in Windows 8 we have a Disk Management for this, which do not require running Windows installation to create new partitions.
    I'm mentioning this due to the fact that originally (I mean by factory settings) my drive has only one visible partition - C: (1TB), so I would need to use the Disk Management to take some space from C: partition and allocate it to the new D: partition.
    In case I do this whole partitioning operation and create a D: partition, is it sure that formatting my system-only C: partition won't have effects on my D: partition, and all the programms and data I have here will stay on their places and work after format? (I'm worried about this because I've seen in some partitioning guide a warning not to format the main partition after the partitioning operation, because it would erase totally all data - I'm not sure if I misunderstood something or is it a mistake? EDIT: here's the link for this guide, just jump to the "Final Thoughts" section to see what I'm taking about: http://www.technorms.com/8438/windows-8-create-hard-drive-partition ).
    If this whole method of keeping your system running fine doesn't apply to Windows 8, I guess I'm okay with having only one C: partition.
    By the way, it doesn't matter for me if I create new partition in terms of conflicts with preinstalled Lenovo OneKey Recovery, since I had to reinstall my Windows 8 recently from non-Lenovo CD, and either way my laptop is now totally clean, without Lenovo stuff (I found Lenovo Recovery CD for Y580 on the internet, but it had non-single-language Windows 8 in it, and I needed a single-laguage one in order to have my Product Key recognised, so I just used a pure Windows 8 SL installer)

    I just found out that I can't even transfer my Users folder or Program Data to other drive than the one with the system, because it would prevent me from updating my system or even from actually booting to my system. So apparently my whole topic is for nothing... I guess I should live with only one drive, and whenever my system totally crashes again I should do the backups to my external HDD. It's sad though that Windows 8 is a total opposite to user-friendly OS, to say the least.

  • Iphone 4 sudden decrease in audio quality and right earphone not working

    This is really strange --- my iPhone 4 suddenly stopped playing music in the right headphone - in all headphones and even in my car AUX jack. Also, the sound in the left headphone is remarkably muffled and low quality.
    But if I pull the jack out a tiny bit, right before it comes out all the way, sound plays normally through both headphones for a split second.
    I tried the cotton swab and rubbing alcohol, tried compressed air.. any ideas what could be the cause? I'm beginning to think it might be like a connector or something deep in the jack got loose maybe?
    Thanks for the help!

    bump!

  • A few questions about Memory and Power Supply for MSI 975X Platinum Powerup Edit

    Bought this Motherboard: MSI 975X Platinum Powerup Edition
    975X Platinum V.2(7246-020)
    I have a P4 CPU HT in it with 2 512mb sticks of DDR2 memory (533mhz).
    I am upgrading to a Core 2 Duo 6600 CPU which has a 1066mhz FSB
    What memory speed should I purchase to achieve the fastest bus speed without overclocking???
    I get confused as my current memory is 533 which I guess on a Pentium 4 with HT cuts the FSB speed in 1/2 to 266mhz.
    Any recommendations?
    Do I need to buy Dual Channel or can I just buy 2 sticks?
    Thank you
    Peter

    Great info again guys!
    I'll stay away from OCZ (I read it's more for overclockers).
    @DryHeat:
    I watched your sig, great setup! I'm planning for about the same setup (MSI 975x PUE, P180, C2D, ...). But will try a Scythe Ninja for CPU cooler and use an MSI graphic card (maybe 2 cards for 4 monitors in total).
    Is your setup silent or just quiet? Makes a big difference for me.
    What would you change now? And what is the most noisy component?
    Sorry for all the questions but I'm not an expert and by budget does not permit me from making any mistakes.
    The case fans create the most noise.  When they are all on "low" I an hardly hear them and have to shake the mouse to see if it's on, but on medium it sounds like a "standard" computer.  Not terrible, but not quite.  On high they are down-right loud.

    Sorry for such a question but i'm just beginner in j2ee and i hope you will help me :)

    Hello
    I'm new on this forum and in j2ee :)Welcome.

    I'm gonna write database in mysql. It will contain
    user and movies. I'll use the tomcat server.Sounds ambitious for somebody who's new to Java and Java EE
    Can you tell me what should i learn to do it, i mean
    can i use jdbc to do it or maybe i should use
    something diffrent, and what will i need more i mean
    jsp, servlets?Yes, learn JDBC. And servlets and JSPs. That's quite a lot.
    Sorry for such a question but i'm just beginner in
    j2ee and i hope you will help me :)I don't know how this helps you. It seems to go without saying: If you want to write Java EE applications, you should know Java EE well.
