Audio over LAN for OS X?

Hi,
Is anyone familiar with software that can stream audio over LAN, as is already possible with MIDIoverLAN? Replacing, say, a couple of ADAT ins and outs going from a sampler machine to a sequencing machine.
Best,
Maarten

This apparently does it (never got round to trying it myself):

Don't know how it stands up in practise, don't know anyone using it on a regular basis.
But doesn't Logic achieve this in and of itself with its 'Node' philosophy ? (Not used Logic myself, always been on DP).

Audio over LAN

Hi
I am using Logic on a Quad core mac and running Vienna instruments as 4 Vienna Ensembles routing the audio back into Logic with soundflower. However I am trying to take some of the load of my DAW machine and so have ordered a 2 Mac mini's to put the vienna ensembles on. I am going to use Midi over LAN to send the midi, but was wandering if there is anyway to get the audio back over lan without me having to purchase audio interfaces for each mini and the mac pro?
Has anybody tried using apples AUNetSend and AUNetReceive? Did these work fine or are there problems?
Another solution I have been looking at is wormhole? Has anybody got this working fine with logic and two mac's?
Any advice would be great!!!
Thanks,
Simon

No, I have not tried them.
I am trialing MusicLab's Midi Over Lan product to use the XP PC in my basement to serve up midi to my Mac. Also on trial is a VST called wormhole to pipe audio upstairs too.
So far, so good, though I haven't tried going the other way, mac to pc.

[solved]advice - audio over lan

hi, i think its possible, but i havent got a clue where to start...... I want to output the audio from my laptop to my lan instead of through my laptops speakers so my media centre (also running arch) can play it over a decent sound system.
the idea is to be playing with mixxx on my laptop, with the audio going to my server. idea or some direction would be great

Pulseaudio should be able to do this. See here for an explanation (very short and simplistic Ubuntu based explanation, but you get the main idea).

Write permission over nfs for transmission files

Hi all,
I have a strange problem and I hope you could help me.
Context :
I have a server with :
transmission-daemon to remotely download torrent
pyload to remotely download ddl
nfs server to provide write access over lan for linux clients
samba server to provide write access over lan for windows clients
And of course, a client wich connect to nfs share to manage files .
Problem :
nfs clients have write permission over files created by pyload and basic users of servers but not on transmission files.
otherwise, samba or local basic user have write access on all files (even transmission)
Configuration :
On the server, I have a storage mounted in /mnt/data binded to /srv/nfs4/.
Transmission save files with mask 022 in directory :
/mnt/data/downloads/
Pyload with mask 022 in :
/mnt/data/downloads/ddl/
Nfs give access to /srv/nfs4 with wirte permission :
/srv/nfs4/ 192.168.100.0/24(rw,no_subtree_check)
Infos :
With I know and I tested, I can tell you :
I have 770 (and not 700) permissions on /mnt/data for local users on servers
Permission files should not be the cause. nfs and smbd are owned by root so logically, both of them can write.
Smb clients can write with every permissions (777,770,700) on files
Nfs clients seems have permission of "other". No write with 700 and 770. But write access with 777
pyload files are owned by pyload:pyload
transmission files are owned by transmission:transmission
basic users files are owned by [the_user]:users
So the problem exists only for transmission (not pyload) owned files from nfs client (not samba) and files are the same permissions .. I don't understand.
I will try with more verbose nfs server but I take every idea
Thanks you.

The problem could be related to Mavericks permission problems. You can try the Bridge fix:
Open Finder > (go) Computer > Macintosh HD (for me) > Users > Click once on the Home icon (main admin) > Get Info >
click on lock and authorise bottom right > click on cog wheel drop down > click on 'Apply to enclosed items' > OK

Z68MA-ED55 (B3) - Realtek HD Audio over HDMI

Does anyone know if the motherboard Z68MA-ED55 (B3) is able to get HD Audio out from the HDMI connection?
When I installed the Realtek HD codec I only see listed two digital outs: optical and atapi. (which I don't know what atapi is for)
I think my motherboard need bios updates as mine is in version A1, and the latest A4 seems to fix some audio tables (which I don't know what it means neither..
Anyone has HD audio over HDMI for this board or advice about what to try?
thanks
Update:
Seems my board should support HDMI HD Audio out..
From MSI board document:
Chip integrated by Realtek® ALC892
Download the manual at: http://www.msi.com/product/mb/Z68MA-ED55--B3-.html#?div=Manual
From Realtek ALC892:
The ALC892 also features secondary SPDIF-OUT output and converter to transport digital audio output to a High Definition Media Interface (HDMI) transmitter.
Documentation at: http://www.realtek.com.tw/products/productsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=24&PFid=28&Level=5&Conn=4&ProdID=284

Any luck getting HD audio to work over HDMI?

Printing broken for HP LJ1150 over Lan

All of sudden today I cannot print to my LaserJet 1150, although all other Win boxes can. The printer is connected via USB to a MacMini and shared over Lan. It's rather embarrassing.
When I attempt to print from say Safari, I get a dialog that says "Print - Error while Printing. OK"
Please help. Thanks people, as always.
I checked my Console.log and I attach what I see:

Thanks greg,
I had already Safe Booted and then re-added the printer by the time I had read your post. All is fine for now.
Thanks.
PS Prior to Safe-Booting, I had deleted/re-added the printer a number of times. Every time I attempted to print after adding the printer, it just locked and reproduced the error. Only after Safe-Boot did it come back alive.

FTP/SFTP/FISH (etc) slow file transfer rate over LAN

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with transferring files over my home network that has been bothering me for quite some time.
I have a 802.11n router which should provide me with the transfer rate up to 150 Mbps (afaik). When I download files from the Internet, 3 MB/s data transfer rate is of no problem.
However, when receiving or sending data over LAN, the transfer rate is much slower (1.8 MB/s).
My rough guess is (after reading some papers on this topic) that TCP protocol is causing this (its flow control feature to be exact), since TCP max window size is too small on Linux by default.
So, setting TCP max window size to a greater number should solve this.
I tried putting this:
# increase TCP max buffer size setable using setsockopt()
# 16 MB with a few parallel streams is recommended for most 10G paths
# 32 MB might be needed for some very long end-to-end 10G or 40G paths
net.core.rmem_max = 16777216
net.core.wmem_max = 16777216
# increase Linux autotuning TCP buffer limits
# min, default, and max number of bytes to use
# (only change the 3rd value, and make it 16 MB or more)
net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 4096 87380 16777216
net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 4096 65536 16777216
# recommended to increase this for 10G NICS
net.core.netdev_max_backlog = 30000
# these should be the default, but just to be sure
net.ipv4.tcp_timestamps = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_sack = 1
in /etc/sysctl.conf but to no avail.
So either there is no problem with the max window size setting, or the Linux kernel ignores it (maybe because /proc is no longer supported?).
Thanks for any neat ideas.

Audio over standard DVI HDMI?

What are the audio capabilities with the 1st 4 generations of MacBook Pros with standard full size DVI outputs when using a DVI to HDMI adapter?
I know that the mini display and thunderbolt ports support full quality 7.1 audio at 24bit 96KHz over HDMI (plug and play right out of the box to a surround receiver). What about the DVI machines? Can you at least get stereo audio thru the DVI port for basic TV/movie watching? Or is audio over HDMI only available starting on the 5th generation MacBook Pros?

Ehych is very correct.
On your $300 switch box, here is *one from MonoPrice* that is only $43!
I've purchased several cables & switch boxes from them - VERY good quality, price & shipping.

Live Video Broadcasting over LAN

Hi Guys,
I have studied the JMF Framework.
And sucessfully transmitted and received video and audio over a network i.e. LAN.
Also I have successful in displaying Webcam onto applet.
Only issue with me is how do I broadcast the Live Video to clients.
Do help me at the earliest.
Thanks and Regards,

Ummm, the same way you broadcast a video file.
You feed the DataSource associated with your web cam through a Processor, program the Processor's tracks to output the encoding you want, and then you send that out via RTP.
And on the receiving end, nothing changes from the video file.

785GT-E63 - Audio over HDMI

Hello All,
I couldn't find this info anywhere, and am hoping that folks here can assist me.
Does this board support audio over HDMI?
I would like to use this board in HTPC setup.
Thank You!!!

Quote from: Fredrik on 20-April-10, 05:16:50
Hello!
Speaking of info. - Please describe your system in some detail, and do not forget to mention the specs of your PSU. There is a sticker on the PSU box.
Generally HDMI transports sound, yes.
Thanks for the reply.
My set-up is pretty simple.
Besides the new MB and CPU (which i got at a great deal on $115 for both) all the components are being recycled from other PCs.
MSI - 785GT-E63
Athlon II 630
2x512MB of DDR2 Ram
Thermaltake TR2 430W PSU
nMEDIAPC HTPC Case 6000B
Windows 7 Ultimate
1.5TB Segate HDD
2TB Hitachi HDD
Video capture card (don't know the specs)
I do not have a dedicated video card, and for my purposes i don't think i need one.
I would like this HTPC to output audio to a 5.1 channel system powered by Onkyo TX-SR507 Receiver through HDMI
This will be used to watch 720/1080p video downloads, brows pictures, basic online browsing and maybe convert some of my old family VHS videos.

P7NGM-digital : audio over HDMI ?

Hello,
I read elsewhere that for this board, P7NGM-digital, audio over HDMI was not possible ?
Is it true ?
As it is not working for me.

Problem solved. Uninstalled all windows updates and display drivers. Reinstalled windows updates in groups of no more than 5 at a time, restarting after each group. Installed latest Intel display driver, restarted. Works like a charm now.

X.25 over LAN using hme

Hi there,
I have to use hme for X.25 over LAN.
But I can't see the hme in the device list on x25tool screen.
I'm using SunLink X.25 9.0.
Is there any way ? Modify some config files ?
Thanks a lot

Hi franky,
I have just read your question with regards to configuring X.25
over a LAN connection.
What type/model of system is X.25 being configured on ?
Has the hme ethernet card been added recently to the system?
What devices do you have available to you ?
Are you referring to the list under:
Edit > Add Link > LAN > Device?
Do you see the hme definition under the Board definition list?
ie: Boards > Definition menu
If not add a new device specifying a symbolic name Path to device
which is /dev/hme, L for Lan device, number of lines/ports, MRU (usually 1515 for lan connections) and a Comment.
I hope that this helps;
Regards

No screensaver or sleep when outputting audio over HDMI

I am using a Mac Mini i5 2.5 running 10.8.2. This is a new setup and I have tested it with a standard computer monitor and it works fine, however when I implement it in my home theater setup running into a Pioneer VSX-1325 receiver, which I use for my video and audio switching the screen saver will not turn on once I have played any audio over the HDMI (iTunes, Netflix... etc). From a cold boot the screen saver will boot up, until I trigger any sustained audio (non-system sounds) through the HDMI connection... This includes web based audio as well. Has anyone else experienced this? For this is a major issue as this display is connected to a plasma TV and I can not rely on my wife to always use a hot corner. I do not want any image persistence or burn-in on my display. I should add the the screensaver function will resume after a period of time when there is no audio being output.

Apparently this was an issue in Lion as well. Thread below, but can Apple fix this ASAP before I have a Plasma with burn-in?

Simultaneous audio over HDMI and line out optical

Anyone know if this is possible on the new mini?
I currently use an AppleTV with HDMI to TV and optical digital to my older surround processor which does not accept HDMI.
AppleTV is useful in that it outputs audio simultaneously over all audio connections - I suspect new Mac Mini might only allow single audio output at a time.

...I assume by saying this you're implying you can deliver video over HDMI but audio over toslink through the line out i.e. audio out to non-HDMI destinations is not automatically disabled by an active HDMI connection...
Correct. You choose your audio output in the sound control panel (or Option-click on the sound icon in toolbar).
That's ideal then really.
...- that would then allow HDMI video to TV, toslink to AV processor, and analogue audio from AV processor to TV analogue audio in to use when you only need the audio via TV speakers...
I doubt the TV will take an analog audio in at the same time as HDMI video in. It likely only accepts analog audio on inputs that are also analog for video (component, s-video, composite).
You're right, unlilely to be configurable for HDMI, there might be the odd set that allowed something like this but in general most wouldn't.
...A small utility/script might be feasible to toggle between the two on the Mini...
Yes, entirely possible.
Another option would be to do what I do: Disable the TV speakers and use the receiver for all sound. Since TV speakers suck, this is a great option. I haven't used built-in TV speakers for at least 15 years.
I generally do that too, just sometimes for late night listening when others are in bed I switch to the TV speakers, but actually it'd be far easier with no TV audio as you'd not run into those instances when both TV and hi-fi are outputting and messing up the audio effect entirely.

RD120 Serial over Lan configuration.

Hi,
Does anyone know what the settings in the bios/BMC need to be on the RD120 to allow Serial over LAN...
I am remote so I cannot see the bios or BMC utilities. There is no documentation on this on the Lenove website. I do not have an RSA adapter for this box as I really dont think I need it for Serial over LAN. I can see the BMC settings with ipmitool so I just need the SOL configuration steps.
Does anyone know if I can set this up? I am looking for documentation on how to configure the bios and BMC..
I can't find it anywhere.
Thanks.

Hi Bill,
SoL is a special text based management path for users to access IBM blade servers via the Management Module uplink. On the IGESM, in code at 12.1(22)AY1 and below, it is necessary to configure a special VLAN on the IGESM to permit SoL to operate. Details on configuring SoL on older code IGESMs can be found in section 7.8 of the IGESM Redpaper:
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/redp3869.html
On code versions at 12.1(22)EA6 and above, there is a built in special hidden VLAN (4095) that does not require any configuration to support SoL. Based on this simplification, it is recommend to use code 12.1(22)EA6 or later if the use of SoL is desired.
Thanks, Matt
