AirTunes - limited to certain iTunes audio sources?

I bought the AirportExpress so I might play my favorite American radio stations on the HiFi downstairs. I listen through iTunes' Radio feature. I found that I can stream my music library (both ripped and purchased) but I CANNOT redirect the radio stream.
If I switch to my AirTunes speaker profile while playing iTunes radio: I get momentary silence during the attempt. iTunes shows the AirTunes as being selected, but audio resumes on my Mac's attached speakers, albeit with a different volume. Sometimes, though, even when the AirTunes profile is selected no audio is played on any speaker. Naturally, this gave me a false impression that Airport Express wasn't functioning.
(I think another user, PCK, mentioned certain songs never play via AirTunes. I don't have that problem. That I know of.)
IS THIS A LIMITATION I CAN OVERCOME? Is it possibly a limitation set by the radio broadcaster? Living in Holland I would really really really like to listen to American radio throughout the house.
Henry B.? Anybody? MUCH thanks!!

This is a known limitation with some internet radio stations, with no solution at present. See what Apple has to say about it at Some Internet radio stations don't play through AirPort Express
I have no idea whether use of the commercial application Airfoil, along with use of an application other than iTunes to listen to this particular internet radio station, will help with this problem or not.

No sound when switching audio sources after 12.1.1.4 update. Requires iTunes restart every time.

System Details:
Windows 8.1 pro - 64 bit
i5-3320M @2.6GHz
12GB Ram
Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E430
Issue:
Before the 12.1.1.4 iTunes update I could simply turn on my bluetooth speaker or headphones and both Windows and iTunes would automatically switch to that audio source, even mid-song. I could turn the speakers on and off multiple times and the sound would almost instantaneously switch between sources without fail. Now I have to restart iTunes to hear music after turning on my bluetooth speakers or headphones. Itunes simply stops playing music, although the pause button does not revert to the play symbol, but the track progress indicator stops moving.
Please help!
Thanks.

Make sure you have the latest version of QuickTime (7.6.6) installed - if this is missing or out of date there may be no audio output from iTunes (including, but not limited to, playback through Bluetooth devices) or playback may be of poor quality.
Also check iTunes' Play Audio Using setting in Edit > Preferences > Playback (you will have to restart iTunes for any changes to take effect). In most cases selecting Direct Sound addresses playback issues when Windows Audio Session is active (though some users have reported the reverse),
If neither of these solves your problem try installing this alternate version: iTunes 12.1.1 for Windows (64-bit — for older video cards). The "for older video cards" label is a little misleading, as this also fixes some playback issues, QuickTime and Outlook interoperability errors, and problems with other third-party applications.

I use Airport Ex. w/ iTunes. Can I configure with other audio sources?

I use Airport Express to AirPlay music from iTunes on my MacBook, IPhone, and iPad. It works great. I'd like to also AirPlay from other audio sources like Youtube, Pandora, and Soundcould (for example). Can I do this?

Yes, if you use an Application like Rogue Ameoba's Airfoil. Info below:

Is there any limitations to purchasing iTunes songs?

I'm wondering if I should be concerned about anything as far as restrictions on how I can use songs I purchase from iTunes. I thought I heard somewhere that there were certain limitations putting your iTunes songs on different mediums. Or maybe that was the iPod that doesn't allow you to share music or something... It seems as though once I download and purchase an iTunes song onto my Macbook I can do whatever I want with it.
I've purchased many iTunes songs before, I'm only asking because I'm planning on buying a bunch of songs/albums and also I'm basically going to import most of my old CDs I have lying around and put them in iTunes (so I can sell the CDs). And I was wondering if it;s better than going with something like Rhapsody.

They are sold for personal use only and may not be used for public performance. You can get more detail from the Terms of Sale.

Feel free to compare.
For purchasing downloads, you will find that many of the tracks that cost $1.29 at the iTunes Store can be had for 99 cents at the amazon.com MP3 Download Store.
Rhapsody also offers a subscription option with unlimited listening for a monthly fee, which may be of interest.

My iphone4 recently stopped working in my car and no longer asks for audio sources. It is paired and turns off the radio when a call occurs but does not utilize the speakers or mic in the car.

My iPhone recently stopped asking for audio source in car and no longer works through the speakers. It pairs with the vehicles just fine, turns off music, but I must use the actual phone to communicate. What happened?

The same problem I have today afternoon.
My car audio system is compatible with iPod USB connector and worked fine for also 6 months.
When connecting my iPod nano 6rd gen via USB to car audio system, iPod displays on its screen a sucessfull connection, and music tracks is successfully displayed on the car audio system. But do not play. Switch forward or backward by playlist (by the buttons on the car audio system) works also, but still there is no start playback.
I tried plugged my iPhone 5 via USB to car audio system - it's works fine.
I plugged iPod to my mac computer - itunes says it's all Ok.
I am confused and do not understand what is happening.
May be restoring to default factory settings iPod....

Why does Premiere Pro CS5 process audio source before exporting clip in AME CS5?

Hello everyone, my first post here. I am currently trying out the trial CS5 Master Collection on my MacBook Pro. I've been using Premiere Pro CS5 to put together family videos. I select a certain portion of a sequence and queue it for export in Media Encoder CS5 in the format H.264 for iPod with video and audio.
Now in AME I have a queue list of about 5 clips from the sequence. But when I hit the Start Queue button, the bottom left of the progress bar states "Adobe Premiere Pro processing audio source from [then file name]" for all 5 clips from the sequence then creates the first output file.
Then it moves to encode the second and again states "Adobe Premiere Pro processing audio source from [then file name]" for all 5 clips of mt sequence then spits out only the second output file.
This continues for the remaining 3 output files. The total sequence length is ~32 minutes with transitions and it takes about 35 minutes to export which is all consumed by the process audio source of the 5 clips in my sequence for 5 separate times.
Is there a certain reason why Media Encoder or Premiere Pro does this process of audio source? Is this process necessary or needed? I experimented with choosing different output formats but the results are the same. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Now that's pretty good follow-up to your first post, and quickly too! Nice detective work.
As you have found, there is basically a Render/Replace operation going on in PrPro, to get the material in the correct form for AME.
Thank you for reporting, as it saved me, and others, from basically saying what you said.
Good luck, and sorry that you beat us to the punch.

USB Audio source not getting to the speakers

I have a turntable audio source connected to my MacBook Pro with Mavericks OS. The device shows up on the Sound pane in System Preferences in the input screen as USB Audio CODEC and the input level bar graph moves when I try to play a record on it. The output screen is set to Internal Speakers, volume is turned up and the mute is off. In other words all the obvious stuff is done.
The problem is that there is no audio coming out of the speakers.
I have iTunes and can play audio files through the speakers just fine. I have a Bluetooth speaker and it also works just fine. The Bluetooth device also shows up in the output screen of the Sound pane of System Preferences.
Any ideas about why the sound from the USB device seems to play on the MBP but does not come out of the speakers or a set of headphones.
Thanks,
Ted

I found the solution in another discussion. The audio program Audacity did the trick.
One needs to have a client like this to process the USB input.
Works great.
Thanks for looking.

Run applescript when airtunes speaker selected in iTunes

Hi,
I have a project that involves creating a whole house audio system using airport expresses and an iphone.
So far so good, best and most cost effective solution.
As I have an AppleTV I want to leverage it as a place to stream through my A/V receiver. This requires me to manually turn on the receiver, select the 'B' speaker output of the receiver (which connects to stereo speakers instead of the 5.1 satellite speakers which are the 'A' speakers), select the correct input for the AppleTV etc etc.
I know its not that hard but if you are reading this then you too probably know the warm fuzzy feeling of it all working seemlessly (no comments on this line please......)
So here's the plan. When I select the "AppleTV" in the speaker menu at the bottom of iTunes (which appears when you have multiple airtunes speakers connected) I want it to run a script that will control a device that beams all of the signals to the A/V receiver to set it up correctly.
The device is probably another problem to tackle, most likely an arduino project in an arduino forum, but I need a script to initiate this that is triggered by the selection of the speaker in itunes.
Does this sound possible?
Dave

Hi Camelot,
I used the accessability inspector and got the following report on the airtunes speaker button:
<AXApplication: “iTunes”>
<AXWindow: “iTunes”>
<AXButton: “Apple Hifi (2)”>
Attributes:
AXRole: “AXButton”
AXRoleDescription: “button”
AXSubrole: “(null)”
AXDescription: “”
AXHelp: “Choose which speakers to use.”
AXEnabled: “true”
AXFocused: “false”
AXParent: “<AXWindow: “iTunes”>”
AXWindow: “<AXWindow: “iTunes”>”
AXTopLevelUIElement: “<AXWindow: “iTunes”>”
AXPosition: “x=1692 y=1104”
AXSize: “w=124 h=20”
AXTitle: “Apple Hifi (2)”
AXSortDirection: “(null)”
Actions:
AXPress - press
Can you point in the direction of creating a script to query if the speaker "Apple Hifi (2)" is active? My applescripting is at a basic level and i'd like to learn some more.
Thanks
Dave

Music app does not have the function to change the audio source.

I use to change my audio source in my music app with the icon that looks like a triangle going into a rectangle i think it is call airplay, but it not there any more and what it is weir is that others app does have it so if i change my audio source in a video online it will change it in my music too..... Well i hope i could explain my self clear enough. Just put the airplay icon back in the music app. Thanks for your attention.
Best regards
Roger

iTunes Radio is currently only available in the US - if you are in the US then try logging out and back into your account via Settings > iTunes & App Store, and if that doesn't fix it then try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Only Audio source CD PLAYER and not change to LINE IN

Hi....
i have msi 915G Combo mainboard audio (cmi 9880l) and Tv Anywhere Master . i have problem with audio source for change to LINE IN
updated all drivers ( sound & tv anywhere ) please help about this...
Thanks

Hi all,
thanks for the replies. I'll try to explain better my scenario:
Pretend that a WM-Transfer Request was already created for a series of material linked to a certain Production Order --> 4 items in that case
          I've got a Production Order BOM with 4 components. So the system creates a WM-TR with 4 different items:
Material A123
Material B321
Material C143
Material D312
          Maybe no one will process this TR due to the fact that the Picking Date is far from today.
          So the Warehouse Supervisor didn't convert it into a TO.
Maybe the day after, the Warehouse operator recognize that the stock of the material B321, is not correct. SAP is misaligned with the reality.
        So, using MM-562 movement type and related TO, he set to 0 the quantities.
After this changes, the Warehouse Supervisor try to convert this TR into a TO using "TO IN BACKGROUND" button:
Material A123 - stock at system level
Material B321 - NO stock at system level
Material C143 - stock at system level
Material D312 - stock at system level
This error message appear and NO TO were created.
There's any way to modify this behavior?
Is possible (like VL06P) to set up a customizing or user exit that can skip only the item that are not pickable??
My expectation is to have a TO with only the 3 item that I can pick.
In our system we didn't accept negative quantity, as for Client requirement.
Thanks a lot
Marco

Multiple audio sources for quicktime movie recording

I want to record a Quicktime movie using iSight as the video input, external audio (guitar) via a Focusrite Saffire LE (1874) audio interface and internal audio (a backing track) from either iTunes, Logic 9 or MainStage 2 (I don't care which), so I can record myself playing and then send the video to another guitarist via Dropbox or similar. Is this possible and if so how do I set it up on my iMac?
Thanks.

QuickTime Player Pro, QuickTime X (Snow Leopard) and QuickTime 10.1 (Lion) all include a "New Movie Recording" feature. The camera can be the internal iSight or an externaly connected one and the audio can be internal or line in.
But you can only have one video and one audio source.
QuickTime Player Pro can be used to add additional "tracks" and the .mov container can have up to 99 of them. GarageBand can help you edit the track timing. It also includes other "instuments" and can play your video while you build additional tracks.
I would record via iSight but not include any audio. Then use GarageBand to add the additional audio tracks.

Get Sequence's Enabled Audio Sources From Player Plugin

Hi, I'm a video editor with some limited programming experience and I've been exploring the possibility of expanding on Premiere Pro's feature set. Nothing fancy or 3D just adding functionality. Specifically I'm looking to add the ability to playback a clip in the Source monitor and preview the audio sources selected on the current sequence. Meaning whichever audio sources are enabled in the sequence would playback along with the video in the source monitor. (Avid has this feature). I've not yet found anything in the documentation that suggests that the current sdk can allow this. I can't find any way to get "enabled or disabled" info from the sequence. In fact I haven't found anything on getting any settings or values from the sequence.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
I also would love to be able to add several other similar enhancements to Premiere Pro. I'm not much of a programmer. It will probably take me ages to do something an actual programmer would take just a few days to do, so I'm more than open to anyone willing to help. I do know Premiere Pro inside out from a user's point of view and would be willing to contribute to any effort in this particular direction.

Yeah... I feared as much. It's too bad really. I have in fact sent a feature request for this several times. (Ever since cs4 rolled along) I just figured it wasn't something adobe was interested in. Or just not really a priority. Which is why I was looking to build it myself.
Oh well... I guess I can try the feature request again.

Mini to control audio sources (hi-fi)

Can a mac mini be set up to control audio sources instead of a traditional hi fi? For example, use the mini to play cd's, and to control itunes libraries on the mini (and remotely from other computers in the home network)? Would I use the apple remote and a flatscreen TV for a menu? Would I need a keyboard also?
If there's a one stop shop on apple or third party to clarify these options that would be great info.
Thanks much

Yes to pretty much everything you asked. You can host music and other media on a mini for sure. You can control it locally or remotely. You can elect to use the Apple remote with Front Row or you can use a keyboard. You can use a TV as a display or go with a headless server, whichever makes more sense for what you have in mind.
Basically the mini is a pretty flexible device and you can roll it how ever you want within the context of everything you asked. It just depends on what you want from it as to how it would be configured.

Export Embedded AAF Error - "Cannot embed audio source error number -2147483647"

I have a sequence that I need to send to an audio post house running ProTools. We have agreed to send an AAF for delivery. The sequence I have prepped looks like this:
- All video and video tracks deleted (except V1);
- All audio effects & volume removed;
- All audio transitions removed.
I export the sequence, am presented with a choice to embed the media into the AAF:
It runs and begins to build the AAF but I get this error message: "Cannot embed audio source "/Volume/...." because an error occurred when writing essence data. Premiere ASL error number: -2147483647".
What is causing this error and how can I prevent this from happening? It is very frustrating and causing a lot of trouble.
I should mention that I can export an OMF fine with "encapsulated media".
Adobe Premiere V7.2.0 (46)
Mac OS X 10.8.5
WAV 48kHz 24bit in 1080p @ 25fps Sequence
BlackMagic Ultra studio Express connected
Problem occurs with final output.

I have the exact same problem. Did you allready found a solution?
OMF has the 2GB limitation wich makes it hard to use for my project.

Trouble syncing two different audio sources

I have a JVC miniDV camcorder that does not have an external mic jack, but it does record sound in stereo from the internal microphone. I have rigged up my video ipod to record with a stereo lavalliere microphone on the person I am interviewing, then it's transfered to itunes. It records wonderfully, however when I try to mix the two audio sources in imove 06 or in Garageband, the recordings become out of sync in a few seconds. Any suggestions?

I think I resolved the issue. Here's the scoop. Apparently, the setting on my JVC camcorder (GR-D370U) was set to 12 bit.
Also, the MicroMemo XtreameMac ipod recorder has two quality settings to record on Low- 22.05 kHz and High-44.1 kHz.
the files are then saved in WAV format.
I did a one minute test run with the camcorder set at 16 bit and the ipod recorder set at "high." I put them both on imovie 06 and YES it worked! It never went out of sync!
I am not sure I totally understand why the two now match up, because I thought that the camcorder audio records at 48 kHz, but I'm not complaining! Anyway, thanks for everyone's comments. When I can afford to upgrade to a new camcorder with mic jacks, I will. But in the meantime, this will do!
