Jtapi - file playing problem

Hi all,
I am a Software Engineer, and programming in java since 2002. But now first time, I am working on a telephony application using JTAPI.
I have a dialogic card (D/41-ESC) to play with.
My code is working fine, it is dialing out, receiving calls, recording users voice and receiving DTMF input. All state and events are also according to documentations.
But i am facing problem at palying of sound (wav/au) file from application to telephone. No exception occurs during execution.
Please guide me what may be the problem.
(FYI. I have no sound card on my system)
looking for early reply. thanks in advance

Hi,
I need a help to make use of TTS in JTAPI 1.4 version. As there is no sample program for this JTAPI 1.4 package, am facing an issue to write a program to play a wave file. Am using Freetts to convert the text file into wave file with 8000 hz frequency. But to play till now I've used usePlayURL method to play the file. But the voice is not clear & soft. So our team preferred to choose a better voice using some other TTS engine & also make a try of TTS in JTAPI 1.4. But the existing source files are just a body for all each interfaces in that package. Don't know to make use of the interface methods.
Kindly guide me to proceed my task.
Welcoming the suggestions....
Thanks & Regards,

Quicktime 7.x.x Chinese Big-5 lyrics kar file play problem.

I use Quicktime to play *.kar file in my blog as following link.
http://itw.idv.tw/blog/?p=2656
CDEFGABCDCBAGFEDC, means Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Si Do Re Do Si La So Fa Mi Re Do.
English lyrics has no problem at Quicktime 7.x.x and 6.4, C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C D C B A G F E D C triggered one-by-one.
Chinese Big-5 lyrics has severe problem at Quicktime 7.x.x, C, DE, F, GA, B, CD, C, BA, G, FE, D, C.
Any idea?

sometimes Unicode processing of text may wrongly convert a character which is originally only 1 byte wide to a full 3-byte wide Unicode character. This may be the source of this bug.
有时候将非Unicode字符转换为Unicode字符可能会错误地将原本只有一个字节宽的字符转换成一个完整的三字节Unicode字符，这可能就是问题的起因。

Burnt DVD's Playing problem

I put a DVD my friend gave me of anime and it wont work its just a white screen and the video screen, and it saysyou need updating even though i have updated to 7.11.1 updat whats going on?

If this is a video DVD, QuickTime Player won't handle it (unless you have the MPEG-2 Playback Component, and even then it may not work). Try using DVD Player instead.
If it's a data DVD with video files, then you'll need to determine what compressor was used to create the videos. Ask your friend and then post back and perhaps someone here can tell you what you'll need.
For a quick solution, you can try VLC Media Player.

Intermittent DVD read/play problem?

Recently, my Mac Mini is not reading my nice DVDs. It does not read new (fresh out of the box) DVDs. I was all set for 'Grapes of Wrath!'. However, some do play and I have no idea why this should be, bearing in mind the machine is less than 2 years old?

Welcome to  Discussions!
Despite the relatively 'young' vintage of your mini, the drive could be dirty depending on its location and conditions of use. If airflow is limited or there is a significant amount of dust in the area, the mini could gather dust quickly. The drive could also be failing, as Apple devices are not completely immune to defective parts (as high quality as they may be). If you use the mini to play DVDs a great deal of the time, this also generates a lot of heat and could quickly shorten the life of the drive.
Do the DVDs even mount and show up on your desktop or in Finder, or are they just ejected?
If they mount but can not be played via DVD Player or Front Row, check the region code of the DVD. If it is not Region 2, it will not play in your mini if (as would be normal) it was set to your local region.

Swf file playing problem in limited user in XP

can anyone help me how to fix this roblem?.... when i try to
open any web site which has swf content in my limited user account
(XP os) it is not playing! and when i change my user to
administrator it is playing properly... pls help me....

Hi AxshunJaxun. Have done a bit more testing & web searching and found that I can rename My Documents but not Application Data. Looks like Application Data has some sort of special status in XP and it's the opsys doing the renaming of both copy & source. Since I can keep multiple copies of My Documents and can live with having to make multiple copies of individual Apps. under Application Data I'll go with that. Thanks for your help.

DVD Player plays DVDs but will not play VIDEO_TS files from my hard drive

When logged into my home account DVD Player plays DVDs but will not play VIDEO_TS files that are on my hard drive. I get an error message: "there was a problem opening the media. Media type is not supported." When logged in as "root" DVD player does play these same files. Also, when logged in to my home account, I can play these same files in VLC.

Go this this thread for more details:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1075814
But the gist of the fix is to delete or rename "~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.DVDPlayer.plist" and let the DVD Player build a new one. It seems that this is caused by a migrated PPC preference that borks DVD Player 5 on Intel Macs, which is what just happened to me. Hope this helps.

DVD either plays wrong movie file, stops while playing, or won't play

Hi, everyone. I'm pretty new to Macs, having got a MacBook a couple of months ago. I just made my first dvd using iDVD, and it played perfectly in preview, but it has all kinds of playback problems. In addition to my main feature, which I made in iMovie, I included a few .mov videos from my digital camera, created a slideshow using iDVD, and, for kicks, put a single image of my cat with a caption exported from Power Point (for Mac) to play before the title menu. (Ah, yes, the newbie likes to play with new toys!)
Problem 1: I placed the newly burned disc in my mom's HP laptop to see if it would play, and we chose Real Player to play it. At first nothing would play, but we tried a couple of buttons, and then the dvd started. But, instead of the pic of my cat I expected, one of the .mov file began to play. It then went on to the title menu as it was supposed to. However, none of the buttons would respond to the mouse or the keyboard.
Problem 2: Wondering why that was going on, we tried the Windows Media Player, QuickTime, the HP QuickPlay player, and a 4th player on her laptop I was unfamiliar with. None of them worked. I even tried ejecting and reinserting the disk each time, Finally, Real Player would not play the disk on a second try.
Problem 3: I put the dvd in a dvd player hooked up to a t.v. The same incorrect .mov file played, followed by the title menu. I started the Main Feature (iDVD movie, 30 minutes long); it started, but then after a couple of minutes, the video just stopped. I hit play again, and the same wrong .mov file played again. Any time I went to the title menu and clicked to play any of the .mov files or the slideshow, the same single .mov file played.
I am using some DVD+Rs 4x that my friend gave me (the videos are for her). They are the CompUSA brand, which she apparently uses all the time. I've never had a dvd burner before. I encoded for Professional Quality, chose Single level dvd, and used widescreen aspect ratio in NTSC mode. There are 46 minutes of content in the project, and the little arrow on the Capacity meter is just a little over the halfway mark, still well within the green. The content size is 2.43GB; I have 111.53 freespace.
If anybody has any idea of what when wrong, I would appreciate it. I have double- and triple- checked everything I could think of, and read every help topic I could find, and I can't find anything that I did wrong.
Thanks.

My suggestion is that you use the 'crawl before you walk' and 'walk before you run' approach.
Don't try a 'kitchen sink' project before you have cut your teeth on a couple of simpler projects. If you don't want to waste a DVD, just create a disk image file (an option under FILE in iDVD) and play it with the Apple DVD Player application.
The only sure way to test your DVD is with a set top DVD player hooked to a TV set. There are too many strange variables associated with the many Windows DVD playing applications.
instead of the pic of my cat I expected, one of the .mov file began to play. It then went on to the title menu as it was supposed to.
It sounds like you put the files in the wrong locations within iDVD. (Look at the MAP view for positioning.)
Try a simple first project.

DVD Playing Problems

Lately, I've been having problems occasionally playing dvds on my Powerbook G4 laptop. Usually I put in a dvd and eventually the DVD Player opens up and the movie loads up. But lately i put in a dvd and nothing opens up. If I open DVD Player myself a message says "Disc Not Available or Supportable." But yet the same dvd has worked in the past. What can I do to get this dvd to play if this happens?
thanks in advance!

Might try one of those cleaning Disks, it's been the savior for a few, and a waste of money for others.
Also Using Disk Utility to Verify the HD & Repair Permissions, then reboot may help.
Or, mysel, I'd use Applejack...
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, then when the prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 5 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.

Some DVDs will play while others will not - told it's an HP brand problem

A new movie I bought refuses to play on my laptop, not matter which media player I choose. The computer recognizes that there is a disk inserted (though it doesn't recognize what movie it is), but when I try to play the disk the player will freeze.
I've been told that this is simply an HP brand problem with no viable solution, but I was hoping to learn more about it here.
The new DVD I bought is the correct region and my disk drive is not dirty or faulty as it will play other DVDs and CDs just fine. This new DVD works with my other DVD player and works perfectly in my roommate's Toshiba laptop.
Is there some sort of downloadable solution?

Lawcere,
Go to HP.com and update the dvd drive and the BIOS.
Here is a link to the update. You’ll need to select your country and have your product number.
You might also clear the upper and lower registry values.
As you play DVDs files will be stored in these folders that can sometimes cause problems.
Here is a link that will walk you through the steps.
Clicking the White Kudos star on the left is a way to say Thanks!
Let me know how everything goes.
Have a good day.

Hi I just updated from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.
I write DVD's using Final Cut Pro, creating a DVD that plays HD and Standard Definition on one disk.
My problem is when I used load the disk on my G5 it would ask if you want High Definition or Standard Definition, now it just defaults to Standard Definition.(I'm using Apple's DVD Player)
Can I fix this problem?

Addendum: I read on a post here (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=420169) about removing some kext files in order to trick OSX into thinking that there were no FireWire ports.
I followed the instructions and removed from /System/Library/Extensions/ the following files:
IOFireWireSerialBusProtocolTransport.kext
IOFireWireAVC.kext
IOFireWireFamily.kext
IOFireWireIP.kext
IOFireWireSBP2.kext
I restarted and BAM...Snow Leopard booted crazy fast and the mouse and keyboard worked instantly.
The System Profiler says "No FireWire ports were found."
So this tells me that the FW port is probably the culprit and is messing up the installation.
So how do I hack the Mountain Lion installer and tell it to ignore the FW port, which is obviously quite dead? Or is there something I can do to the Base system that is similar?

HP G56 intermittent sound problem - e.g you tube/MP3 files play for 10 seconds then stop.

HP G56 intermittent sound problem - e.g you tube/MP3 files play for 10 seconds then stop. I have made sure that the latest sound driver is installed and this makes no difference. The laptop is new so there is no other software on it other than the pre-installed stuff operating on windows 7. In sound options all looks well and the device is said to be working properly. Even the sound test in device manager sometimes works and sometimes doesnt.

FC/e is based upon the Quicktime-engine; so, on 'Export using QT', you'll get all codecs & settings.
but which one..
due to sheer popularity, YouTube became a 'standard' - I'm happy with the convenience, YT and the 'embed'-code offers - excellent quality, automatic adjusted to the watchers connection&hardware.
my export settings are 720p, h264, 6MBit/sec - gives a - imho! - superb quality.
(example of a 'screen-test' from my latest project CLICK )
for creating so-called 'flash video'/.flv, you need 3rd party apps.
Sorenson Squeeze is more of an pro-tool, .. you need some background knowledge to get noticeable 'better' quality.
.. and the question is: are you willing to pay $.$$$ for that 0.x% more quality .. ? does your source offers such a 101% quality, which needs such affords?
if bandwidth is an issue, because you're hosting on your own servers, consider the free codec xh264, you can install as a free QT-plug-in.. with low or super-low bitrates, it offers a superior quality compared to h264 ...

I use imovie to create videos. When I burn the video to DVD and play it back there is digital breakup in the playback from the DVD. The digital breakup does not show in playback on the computer. I understand there is a file I need to delete and reboot the computer and imovie will rebuild the file in the program. Help!

My method is to use the DAW in standard recording mode, and set up the camcorder entirely separately. After recording, I automate the audio mix with fader moves and effects, then export ("bounce to disk") a full-fidelity AIFF, 16-bit 48 kHz stereo file (most videos use 48, not 44.1). I use iMovie '11 to import the video from the camera, then import the stereo audio file and match it up to the camera audio by dragging it into the iMovie Project. Make the waveforms visible, it's not too hard to align.
Then, use iMovie's "Export as Quicktime" feature. Here, by going through the menus and options, you can control the audio compression (for example, 256k instead of 128, although 128 seems to be enough for YouTube).
AppleMan1958 posted a YouTube video about controlling iMovie's export options that may help:
