Are itunes lps of the same quality as the analog

The question is this : an    analog format weather a computer reel to reel or an anlog lp contains much more data then it's digital counterpart. how does itune LP compare to its
LP version.

Blu-Ray has better image quality.  Apple TV only supports content up to 8Mbps for 1080p whereas Blu-Ray can go as high as 40Mbps.
What this means in a nutshell is that the content in iTunes is more compressed, which will have an impact with picture quality.  I won't even go in to talking about sound. 
At the end of the day I guess it really depends on your setup and what you're looking to get out of it.  I've seen the newer content in iTunes (Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows) and it looks really good.  I've also downloaded Gladiator (1080p) and it looks mediocre at best.

  • My iphone 4 recently shattered and i was wondering are those screen replacements retina displays and the same quality as the apple screens ?

    Are these cheaper alternative screen replacements retina display and the same quality as the apple screen

    I am assuming you are having Apple do this. They will just replace the whole phone with a refurbished one.
    If you're having it done at a third party place then you'll have to ask them all the questions.

  • Export a clip in exactly the same quality as the original

    I have just tried importing a DSLR H264 file in premiere and export it back
    1. At the question if i would like to create the new sequence i choose using the clip's settings
    This generated a correct sequence (regarding the frame size the pixel aspect ratio and the field order) but it set the preview settings in i mpeg / 50% quality, while the clip uses the quicktime H264 codec (let us say that this will be used in the editing procedure and can be altered at the export)
    2. I immediately exported the clip from the sequence using the match sequence setting option (which uses the I mpeg codec)
    3. I Linked then to AMA in the Avid facility we have, (both the original and the -so called same as sequence = same as clip export - (I used link to AMA so that i could prevent Avid from trnascoding any of the clips.
    4. the results (using Avid's Color Scopes) are that there is a colour shift to the exported video from Premiere vs the original.
    5. I retried using H264 as the export codec and disabling the Limit data rate and enabling any time cost setting
    6. I tried many other possible solutions regarding the export codecs or the sequence settings and still having a different kind of shifting all the time
    What is the official Adobe solution to import and export in a lossless way any material, or importing something in Premiere means you start shifting from original?

    First of all thanks for the reply. Both codecs you mention are pc only codecs and i am working on a mac
    I am working on an avid environment, having proposed the install of 3 premiere suites
    My point is that i want to edit no matter the codec (impeg or whatever) but be able to export the edit using the native video codec and at the native quality like avid's AMA link way
    So when i use H264 i want to export H264
    Nevertheless i have done some experiments here and came at the following conclusions
    1) exporting using animation codec gives back 100% quality in the best speed
    while this is back imported to Premiere and matched down with the original using Premiere scopes and the sequence's preview files being set to H264 gives back 100% the original, when i match it on avid (1 track the original AMA linked 2nd track the exported from Premiere (also AMA linked) ) the Avid's scopes are showing a minor shift in chroma and luma (which visually is non identified)
    My question though is more generic and has to do with the whole philosophy of Premiere's materials handling.
    I import a video - it is by default using the 50% quality impel in order to edit quickly and when it comes to export what do i do?
    I use a different export codec than the one i used to edit?
    What about the effects rendered on the timeline (having used the imeg codec)?
    I try to switch the sequence's settings to a quicktime animation codec when i finish an edit (it losses the preview files generated by the impel codec) and then export using again the animation codec, but that;s me
    I try to find if there is an official  Adobe Lossless method of doing this...

  • I have a MacBook and created a slideshow on IPhoto. I made copies (discs) of the slideshow and they did not come out well...how can I create discs with the same quality as the original?

    I created an IPhoto slideshow.... the quality was wonderful on my MacBook and through my projector. I was told to export to my desktop and create copies via IDVD. I did that and the copies are terrible quality. 1. How to I make a copy to look exactly like the original and 2. I do I save as a backup should my Mac crash? Please.... this took a long time to create and I really need help. Thanks!

  • How to export DV to H264 with the same quality as other apps.

    After some nightmare decision and many recomendations I've decided not to use imovie08 to edit my DV video. So I started using iMovieHD. But after my first project I was shocked. After asembling some clips and export to h264 (no effects, transitions or titles) the quality was far inferior to the same original DV file exported with mffpegx or Mpegstreamclip. You can download here two files to compare:
    http://cid-79fe52c9afb5b05d.skydrive.live.com/browse.aspx/Video%20TEst%20iMovieH D
    The name of the file refers to the application used to convert.
    I export using Quicktime->Expert settings->h264 (I have tried both mp4 or quicktime)
    Image size SD (768*576)
    Frame rate 25
    Bitrate 2000
    As you can see using MediaInfo the two files have very close especifications (I couldn't get the exact ones).
    Are I'm doing something wrong? Can I get the same quality I get with the other apps? or should I export to DV and then do the conversion with some other program?

    Thanks for the input.
    You point something interesting, but after further experimenting I get no improvements.
    Since there is no deinterlacing in mp4 export, and switch to QuickTime H264. There you get a option to deinterlace, but the result is a movie with near the same quality as the mp4 file. The only improvement is visible in the diagonal lines in the shirt.
    The worse thing I see in the video does not have to be with deinterlacing but with the objects being doubled like a picture of a fast moving object or perhaps like the shadow of a phanton. These does not improve at all with deinterlacing the video.

  • JPG Photos are not the same quality as on my camera

    Hi, I'm shooting with a D300s and a D90 and using approved memory cards. I hav been shooting with these cameras for about 2-3 years and since July I have noticed that the quality of the image on the camera is not necessarily the quality of the image that I upload. I am a professional photographer and am teetering on replacing all my equipment to target the problem. I have called Apple and Nikon and have not been able to trouble shoot the issue.
    I have tested the image import on several different devices and the results are mixed.
    Cameras: jpeg, custom color settings, pretty picutre
    Imac (early 2009) : dark, grainy, unusable picture
    Macbook Pro 2013: dark, grainy, unusable picture
    ipad 4: viewing image via dropbox: moderately useable picture
    I have opened it Photoshop Cs5 and Cs3 and the image quality is the same

    So generous people; thank you for your time.
    I visited the camera store and we discovered that my camera lcd was set to the maximum brightness level which completely distorted any understanding of my exposure. What I now see on the lcd in terms of ligt and shadow is very similar to what I see on my computer screen.
    Maybe you can shed light on this:
    I also may need to just upgrade my imac. On the camera store's late model imac my images were tac sharp but on my imac they look quite soft and still have less light.
    There is also still some difference in terms of color settings. My camera's colors have a brighter pinkish tone and on the camera store's imac and mine the tone is yellowish orange.
    I will try DPReview and Nikoncafe. My first step is to reset my cameras to factory defaults and then upload and compare.
    Thank you both for your help

  • I have two albums (RCA Sweeny Todd 2 discs set and RCA Into the Woods 1 disc) where the songs are listed as being on the same album on the list view, but do not group together on the iPod, so the songs can't play consecutively, or in the proper order.

    I have two albums (RCA Sweeny Todd 2 discs set and RCA Into the Woods 1 disc) where the songs are listed as being on the same album on the list view, but do not group together on the iPod, so the songs can't play consecutively, or in the proper order. The "Apply Sort Field" and "Same album does not work, but ti is only these two RCA albums that do this. All other albums remain intact. Need help with this minor problem. Thanks.

    UPDATE: This behavior (to an extent) still happens when "Repeat Album" is off. Instead of an infinite loop, it goes through all the tracks on the album (unsuccessfully) and kicks me out to the Album overview screen. Going back to list of Albums and tapping the Album again brings up "No Content: You can download music from the iTunes Store" but that screen immediately kicks me back to list of Albums.
    So I am just even more confused now.

    iPods, iPhones, and iPads aren't tied to one particular iTunes accout/Apple ID.  So there are no special instructions to follow to allow you to sync it with your newer account.  Simply sync it as you would your iPhone 4.

  • How can I view ipod touch HD video with the same quality on a different device such as my computer?

    Video recorded on Ipod touch 4G appears "HD" as advertised when viewed on the Ipod.  Why does it not have anywhere near the same quality when viewed on a computer?

    How are you judging the quality on another device?  HD is defined by the number of pixels

  • How can I remove multiple copies of the same song from the iTunes listing?

    How can I remove multiple copies of the same song from the iTunes listing. The program seems to be picking up the same songs from, for example, my user area and my public area in the C drive

    As above, Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library, however it is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve/merge ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.

  • When I move high quality clips into my timeline in Final Cut Express HD, they look and export low quality. I have tried converting the clips and de-interlacing them, but they always look the same, What is the problem? Thanks so much.

    When I move high quality clips into my timeline in Final Cut Express HD, they look and export low quality. I have tried converting the clips and de-interlacing them, but they always look the same, What is the problem? Thanks so much.

    You should check that the Project settings match the clip settings before editing them to the Timeline.
    Only newly created Projects will change not existing ones by adjusting the Project settings.
    If, for example, you have a Project set to NTSC DV you can only end up in trouble if the clips are PAL 1920 x 1080i.

  • Can I share itunes music with two separate computer users on the same computer using the same itunes account?

    I have gone through the insturctions on sharing a folder, but it will not update under both itunes libraries when I download new music? For example, I log in as "User A" and download a song on itunes. I then log into the same computer as "User B" and open itunes and the song is not there, even though the music library is the same shared folder on the computer. I tried downloading the music as "User B" but then I get the error: You do not have enough access privileges for this operation".
    Does anyone have any ideas how I can properly and continuously share the same music between accounts? I have to use seperate computer log in accounts because my wife and I have our own calendars, contacts, etc...
    Thank you!

    For iPhoto 09 (version 8.0.2) and later:
    What you mean by 'share'.
    If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
    Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
    Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
    If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc.
    Quit iPhoto in both accounts. Move the Library to the Users / Shared Folder (but note: some users find ongoing permissions issues with the Library in this location. It might be better to use an external HD set to ignore permissions, a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.)
    In each account in turn: Double click on the Library to open it. (You may be asked to repair the Library Permissions.) From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
    However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.

    We have a 10 person office - all either use Acrobat XI or Reader XI.  One person is on Windows 7.  The rest are on Windows 8 (not 8.1).  I say this because I thought it was a Windows 8 issue, but having the same problems on the Windows 7 machine. We are all having problems opening pdf's sent to us from other firms. This has increased in frequency over the past two months. We've checked with the various firms, and their other clients are not having problems. Some pdfs open but with a lot of missing content and strange formatting, others won't open at all.  There are different error messaged depending upon the doc.  Some are regarding the fonts, for example "can't extract the embedded font...."  Others are "insufficient data" errors.  There are more, but for purposes of keeping this short, I won't include them.  Another unrelated issue is that we are having trouble printing excel files to pdf.  The files end up with bad formatting.  I've worked with adobe "chat" support, our IT consultants with no resolution.  I also haven't found any similar "known issue" online  Would very much appreciate any assistance.  Thank you

    The font embedding can be a problem if not done and you are trying to view the PDF and do not have the font on your machine. Acrobat will often try to find a replacement, but it is not always a good choice. Sometimes the "Use Local Fonts" button can be changed in state to resolve some of the viewing issues.
    If you are trying to copy or export info, then it is important that you have the fonts on your system. Otherwise, the message you are getting about embedded fonts would not be showing up.
    As for Excel formatting, be sure that the Adobe PDF printer is selected in the printer screen before you look for the paging and formatting of the file. In most OFFICE programs, if you change the printer the application will reflow the document to best match the printer (called "using printer metrics"). So check before you create the PDF that the layout is correct.
