CBR MP3 and AAC issue for audioqueue

We are exporting MP3 and AAC files from Logic Pro / Itunes with a constant bit rate - however when we look at these in the terminal they are showing as having a 0 value for the bytes/packet - therefore the SDK is seeing them as VBR files... Here's an example in the terminal:
File: introduction.mp3
File type ID: MPG3
Data format: 2 ch, 44100 Hz, '.mp3' (0x00000000) 0 bits/channel, 0 bytes/packet, 1152 frames/packet, 0 bytes/frame
no channel layout.
estimated duration: 246.000 sec
audio bytes: 4938188
audio packets: 9452
bit rate: 160 bits per second
packet size upper bound: 1052
maximum packet size: 523
audio data file offset: 4096
optimized
Tried exporting them as AAC and MP3 using both Logic Pro and iTunes but all output files are showing a bytes/packet value.
Does anyone know how we can ensure that the CBR files have non 0 values for both bytes/packet and frames/packet?

Here's some more details on the file: Looks like there's a lot of different bit rates in there:
FO:
MPEG1 layer 3
9452 frames
44100 Hz
38.281250 frames per second
246.909388 seconds
4942284 bytes in file (160.132721 kbps)
4938188 bytes in MP3 frames (160.000008 kbps) = current bitrate
36500250 bits of payload data (147.828523 kbps)
4566717 bytes of payload data (147.964143 kbps)
33486 bits wasted from partially-full bytes (0.135621 kbps)
4906989 bytes of MP3 data (158.989143 kbps) = minimum bitrate possible
31199 bytes of padding (1.010865 kbps)
4096 bytes outside MP3 frames (0.132713 kbps)
0 sync errors
Bitrate distribution:

Largest frame uses 6427 bits = 804 bytes = 246.033594 kbps
Smallest bitrate for CBR is 160

  • MP3 and AAC files mixed in burned Audio CD???

    Here is the story. I am new to iTunes and I have a 400Mhz G4 AGP Machine running OS 10.2.8 and have Quicktime 6.5.3 installed. I also have a 93 Gig HD and 512 megs of RAM and a Sony CRX160E iLink CD burner. I was running iTunes 3.0.1 for a little bit and just upgraded to 4.7.1 about a week or 2 ago. Can I mix "MP3" encoded tracks with "AAC" tracks. I think that I read in the help menu that I had to use the "Data CD" option instead of the Music CD option. But, if this is so, can I still play this CD in a regular CD player? since was encoded with MP3 and AAC and it is formated as a Data CD??? The reason I am asking is because I encoded a bunch of songs as MP3s in 3.0.1 as default and I understand that AAC files are of slightly better quality so, I wonder if it would be worth it for me to re-import my songs in "AAC" for consistency. Consistency is my main concern. I want to be able to burn CDs with little problems (although I have some issues but, that is a different story) and mix formats if I can.
    Thanks,
    Larry

    Thanks for your help! I just burnt a CD with mixed formats and it played fine in a "newer" CD player. My home CD player is older (Circa 80s or 90s?) and I have been told that the older CD players either can't or, don't like CDRs. So, it played fine in my son's newer CD player but, not in my "older" player. I am not too sure about the difference in sound quality yet. I'll have to do some more testing. The MP3 files and AAC files both sounded well when played. One annoying thing, though is the volume issue. Most of the songs played at a similar volume but, one played quite softly. An annoying thing but, I understand that even if you use the "Sound check" option, the sound can vary due to the fact that iTunes has a "fast" way of reading the sound levels and could be inefficient. I will try "iVolume" to see if that helps. It is supposed to be pretty good for iTunes except for the version 7 that just came out.
    Thanks again,
    Larry

  • 1000v and possible issue for data storage firmware upgradation

    Hi all,
    We have IBM N series storage controller which provide storage to esxi4.1.We have hosted out primary and secondary VSM for 1000V deployment on this ESXi4.1.
    We need to upgrade the storage firmware and I like to know if their is any possible impact on my 1000V.
    As this is a outage change [becuse of storage will bring dowm] i like to know why precautionary measure will be taken so that my nexus 1000v remain un affectted because of this storage controller upgradation change.
    If their is any link available for refference .
    Thanks in advance.

    Since your storage is going down completely you will need to power off the n1k. Here are things You can do to minimize the impact of this:
    1) ensure your running config matches your startup config (show run, show start)
    2) ensure your system VLANS are configured correctly. Namely make the follow VLANS are system VLANS on your eths/veths that carry them: ESXi management, vCenter management, VSM management, control, packet, any storage VLAN (iSCSI or NFS)
    3) make sure the VSMs have their reservations set correctly in ESX so they don't have to worry about resources during boot
    Alternatively if you have a host with ESX installed on local storage you could migrate the VSMS over to that, storage vMotion the VSMS onto local storage and keep it running during the outage (though you should still verify your system VLANS)

  • HT1589 Why does creating a new library only look for mp3 and AAC files. why not ALAC and AIFF ?

    I want to add a new library so i can use on sepcific devices. However it does not att AIFF or ALAC files. I always import using AIFF into my standard library.
    If i want to use only mp3 files in the new library do i have to create them first in my standard library then they will appear in the new library. then delete from the original library but keep files?
    Thanks

    However when i created new library it only imported 30% of the music i have
    Then it may have stalled, ot there could be permissions problems... Try adding the folder again or use iTunes Folder Watch.
    Also i dont want to downsample to 128k. i want to use 320k and still have best quality without using lossless formats to put on the iPhone
    iTunes can now downsample to 128k, 192k or 256k...
    Also i dont want to see 2 of each song in one library
    thats why i want to use two different libraries.
    Yep, that bit I get, but switching in and out of libraries and trying to keep things up to date is easier said than done. I'm just trying to point out there might be an acceptable alternative that is easier to manage.

  • Heating and battery issues  for iPad 3

    My iPad gets really hot. The battery takes up to 7-10 hours to charge and it's loosing battery faster than my buddies iPad 2. We used them at the same rate for a test. His was at 56% and mine was at 50%. Sometimes much worse than that.  Like I said it gets extremely hot. And the battery...well it *****. I once put it on the charger over night and it was at about 85% I am very disappointed in this iPad. I have come to expect much more from Apple.

    Are you just ranting, or do you have a question?
    Btw, the issues you describe have been discussed dozens of times already.

  • When is Firefox Mobile getting mp3 and aac html5 support?

    I want to be able to use Firefox for Android to listen to music through Grooveshark's html5 website. From what information I've been able to gather Firefox for Android must still only have ogg hmtl5 support and I don't want to have to use Chrome or the built-in browser just for Grooveshark.

    Yes Firefox should be able to play back those files on Android. It is likely that the site is doing user agent sniffing instead of feature detection. You can try the phony extension to pretend to be other browsers. It may allow SoundCloud to work. http://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/phony/
    If Phony does help then it is an issue with SoundCloud's website.

  • SA 540 and DMZ Issue for Wireless Guest Access

    I have hooked up a Wireless AP into the Optional Port setup as DMZ on the SA 540.  My goal is to provide internet access to wireless guest users without giving them access to the entire LAN.     The internet access for the wireless guest users is painfully slow.   It takes 5 minutes to access Google.   Has anybody else had issues with slowness.    I am able to successfully ping websites and retrieve their IP address, but it won't connect to any websites via web browsers.   Just to humor myself,  I configured firewall rules to allow DMZ full access to the LAN and WAN.   I am still having the same results.   Any thoughts and suggestions?

    Hi,
    I'm not the one with the AP problem, I just have the same issue with the DMZ port. I think you have to forget about the whole AP issue here since the problem is with the DMZ port on the SA500.
    I have my Web and Mail server set up on the DMZ port, I can ping and resolve Domain names to the outside world, but trying to reach anything with a browser takes foreeever. On, eg. www.apple.com I just get a few lines from their web page (so there is a connection) and then it halts to a stop (takes about 5 min).
    I also tried to move my laptop to the DMZ, just to make sure there is no problem with the server, and it has the same issue.
    To summarize, I have about 16 Mb connection on my LAN and on my DMZ i can't even load a full web page.
    Firmware 1.0.39
    BTW, when I upgraded the firmware it wiped my configuration, but it kept my firewall rules in place, even though they weren't shown in the Firewall table. e.g. I could still access my DMZ from my LAN. I had to hard reset the router from the hardware reset button on the router before that changed and the router was completely reset.

  • Mp3 and aac file formats

    Well, I made a playlist on my shuffle...Then when I was playing it It seemed it skipped over all the aav files and only played the mp3. So when I hooked up the shuffle to the computer all the mp3 files were at the top and the aav were at the bottom! So, After spending some time rearranging the list they're now in the correct order...Is there a setting I did or didn't use?
    Thanks

    i found this info at this link

    iPod calibrates its touch-sensitive surfaces when you turn off the Hold switch. Touching the buttons or the touch wheel on a sleeping iPod at the same time that you turn off the Hold switch causes iPod to calibrate to the capacitance of your finger instead of the air. This can cause iPod to turn on but appear unresponsive when waking from sleep.
    i'm thinkiing that maybe the click wheel is not calibrated. also, have you restored the ipod.

  • Optiplex 9020, Intel 4600 + AMD video card = bluescreens and other issues for dual monitors

    Our organization purchased a number of 9020s with the onboard Intel and the AMD 8490
    Over time, many of these systems would experience video issues.  Originally they were configured with one monitor was plugged into the intel VGA and the 2nd monitor was plugged into the AMD DVI. output
    Among the issues were bluescreens.  When dragging something from one monitor to another, there would either be another bluescreen or other graphical glitches.  Despite uninstalling/reinstalling both drivers these issues would persist.  Eventually we tried moving both monitors to the Intel outputs,  issue still persisted, then we tried moving all the monitors to the AMD ports,  issue still persisted.   Eventually we removed the AMD card entirely.   That seems to have corrected the graphics issues.    That being said, I don't think the issue is faulty hardware,  about a dozen systems have exhibited this issue so I am doubting that each one of them all have faulty hardware.   I suspect a driver problem somewhere.  The Intel driver and/or the AMD driver don't seem to play well with each other.   
    This issue has persisted across both the AMD 8490 and the AMD R7 250 cards.
    Our organization is locked into certain configurations, so at present, we are unable to order PCs without the extra card.   The extra card hasn't been needed once onboard cards started gaining the ability to do multiple monitors.

    Win7 64 bit.  We haven't had the blue screen in a while so I don't have the specific message, but it did reference an AMD file.  Drivers have been uninstalled/reinstalled numerous times.
    Latest issue is that when the user steps away from the computer and the monitor goes into powersave after 30 minutes, when the user returns the monitors will turn on, but the screen stays dark.

  • Date and Time Issue for Mult Org...

    Hello,
    How can I manage the date time, if my organizations have different plant and location?
    I.e. The database server located in Pacific Time zone and the application may access from new plant German time zone.
    Whenever the German business center enters any sales transaction it should take German current date and time instead of Pacific Time.
    Pls advice me
    Thanks,Raghu.K

    Hi,
    While defining a Location, you can mention the time zone for that location and also the inventory organisation to which this location belongs.
    So, this location can be assigned to your organisations. You can access the time zone according to the location you select.

  • Multicast and WebcamSubscriber issues for 10.1

    Hi,
    I'm trying to subclass WebcamSubscriber in 10.1 lib to create a custom video subscriber.
    When multicast is on, a subclass of WebcamSubscriber for flash 10.1 does not always act as expected. Specially, after playing a stream, it does not seem to send a "NetStream.Play.Start" event.
    Since the 10.1 lccs library is not open source (why?), the best I could do was by subclassing and overriding, here is a simple test to reconstruct the problem:
    public class TestSub extends WebcamSubscriber {
         public function TestSub() { super(); }
         override protected function onNetStatus(e:NetStatusEvent):void {
              trace(">> onNetStatus: " + e.info.code);
              super.onNetStatus(e);
    Given the above code, a full cycle events of a subscriber in a p2p state (multicast = true) is like this:
    >> onNetStatus: NetGroup.Neighbor.Connect
    >> onNetStatus: NetGroup.MulticastStream.PublishNotify
    >> onNetStatus: NetStream.MulticastStream.Reset
    >> onNetStatus: NetGroup.MulticastStream.UnpublishNotify
    >> onNetStatus: NetGroup.Neighbor.Disconnect
    The above shows a publisher playing an stream, waiting for some time and then closing the connection.
    The question is: why is that the 10.1 version never sends a "NetStream.Play.Start" event in the p2p state?
    The problem could be traced to WebcamSubscriber#playStream(), but the source code for 10.1 is not available. Also when I tried overriding playStream() using the code in 10.0 lib, I got a peer timeout message. Is the code for WebcamSubscriber#playStream() in 10.0 the same as 10.1?

    Can you try to run your application linked to the 10.1 LCCS lib on a machine that only has FlashPlayer 10.0 installed ?
    Can an application which is linked to lccs for player 10.1, run on a 10.0 player?
    This sounds like a problem in lccs. Could you check the difference in code in WebcamSubscriber#playStream() between 10.0 and 10.1? (I cannot do this as 10.1 is not open source.) Whatever the problem is, it's initiated from that method.

  • Mm issue:-how to deal with  gds sent for repairs and again issued for consm

    The main problem is that if something come for repairing it increase the stock for one period and decrease the R and M for that period. And when after 4 months when goods are received after repairing it disturbs the R and M expense in another period.  And this also disturbs the valuation of the material.
    Any one can suggest how to deal with the repairs done to materials without affecting the valuation price of  original material.
    my points is how everyone in india is dealing with goods sent for repairs outside their company.
    what all entries are generated from first receipt of goods in company till  good sent for consumption after received from vendor who repaired the goods.
    all a/c and mm entries

    what we have decided that we would have 2 valuation type
    1. sap-domestic :- normal stock
    2. sap-use/repair :- repaired items.
    All the goods should be received using sap-domestic valuation. from here goods are sent to shop floor. when ever repair is required goods are received in stock thru sap-use-repair at value zero and not moving price specific to sap-use/repair valuation.
    so till goods that require repair and that already repaired are kept in stock, they are kept at 2 different values one is zero and other is moving price specific to valuation type sap-use/repair.
    now goods are sent for repair at zero value but when these goods are received after repair then value of repair will affect the moving price of valution sap-use/rep.
    so this will solve our problem that goods should be received from shop floor to stock for repair at value zero.
    how can we achieve this that goods received from shop floor to stock for repair is received at zero value and not moving price specific to valuation sap-use/rep. where we will have do setting in this vaution type or wherever required.
    pls send some suggestions on it
