How do I change the conversion to 128Kbps option to a higher bit rate?

I have a lossless music library spanning 160 GB. Of course this will not fit into an iPhone, so I want to convert it to a lossy format for the time being.
I also want to keep my lossless library in iTunes. So the only option that I see for these two conditions to coexist is the "Convert to 128Kbps when syncing" option.
However, I find 128Kbps VBR too low quality. Is there any way to increase the bit rate (perhaps to V1 or V0) without manually re-incoding my music library?

not in iTunes. however, you can use this script:
Lossless to AAC Workflow v2.2 
Two scripts assist with importing/managing Apple Lossless or AIFF audio files and sending converted AAC copies to a mounted iPod set to "manually manage songs and videos".
Lossless to AAC Workflow (CD->iPod):
Imports each enabled CD track as an Apple Lossless or AIFF file Makes a converted AAC copy of each imported file Adds the AAC file to iPod, deleting the original AAC from iTunes.
Lossless to AAC Workflow (iTunes->iPod):
Makes a converted AAC copy of each Apple Lossless or AIFF track selected in iTunes Adds the AAC file to iPod, deleting the original AAC from iTunes. In this way you can keep archived lossless files on your hard drive, and manageable AAC files on your iPod.
Yes, iTunes 9.1 will auto-encode tracks to iPod, but only 128 kbps AAC; these scripts enable use of your Custom AAC encoder setting.

  • How can I change the hotkey assignments for options listed in the context-click (right-click) menu?

    How can I change the letter assignments designated to the options that appear in the right-click drop-down menu?
    I frequently save specific items and inspect elements in webpages, however currently the key assignment for 'View Page Info' is the letter ' i ', which inconveniently is located out of the reach of my left hand.
    Rather than forcing ambidextrous mouse usage to allow my right-hand to rest on the keyboard, if I could be pointed in the right direction for customizing these assignments I would greatly appreciate it. I have been able to disable some of the menu items I don't use with firebug but didn't see/didn't know how to go about customizing this option in about:config or deeper in the program files.
    Thanks ahead of time, I'm sure this will be a quick and hopefully easy file/preference name assignment I just need to add, I just couldn't find any forums that had already addressed the request.

    While that add-on is pretty useful and handy for customizing the keyboard shortcuts for items housed in the Menu Bar, it does not provide the resource to change the key combinations assigned to items in the context-click menu
    (the one that appears when you right-click a HTML element or image or such with specific actions pertaining to the item you clicked on - See image)

  • How can I change the mouse pad scrolling option?

    I am sure before my recent upgrade it was the opposite way round for scrolling  I have OS X  10.9.4

    Hi, I'm not sure what OS X version you upgraded from, but I was not aware that the menubar text changed in size in Mavericks from previous versions. Unfortunately there is not any system wide text size setting, however, you can change the screen resolution, which wil increase the text size (and everything else) on the screen.
    System Preferences - Displays. Select 'Scaled' radio button and select a different screen resolution and decide if that setting aids you.
    If there are not enough screen resolution options, hold the 'Option' key, while clicking on the 'Scaled' radio button and more resolutions will be presented.

  • In the Menu Bar, under File, then Open File, how do I change the selections?

    I have Firefox 11.0 and Windows 5.1 (2007). In Firefox, I click on FILE in the Menu Bar, then OPEN FILE (Ctrl+O), and I see a small box; it says Look in: Mozilla Firefox. Below is a selection of files within the folder Mozilla Firefox. To the left is a column of four other folders: Downloads, My Computer, John, Lori. The last two are obviously two of the folders I've created on my computer, using Windows. But I don't know how they got here! I have no recollection of customizing this particular Firefox menu option by adding those folders, nor can I figure out what to do in order to further customize it. Can anyone tell me: (1) how can I change the original "Look in" option so that it opens with something other than "Mozilla Firefox" (which, after all, I never need to access)? (2) how can I add/delete/change the choices offered in the column on the left, so that different folders are listed? (Currently, if I want to access my Windows folders/files, I first have to minimize the Firefox screen; this seems to me a nice shortcut, but I'd like it to include shortcuts to the folders I use the most, which does not include "Mozilla Firefox"!) (3) Is this actually a Firefox feature, or is it a Windows feature? It does look like Windows (Windows style, Windows folders), but it appears only in the Firefox Menu Bar, along with Bookmarks, Tools, etc. Thanks!

    This sounds like a Windows thing ( You can post a photo and I can tell you for certain). Those folders are Windows system created folders that your computer has had since it was installed, all Firefox does is use the Windows File picker, which is what you see when you open that window. So, to customize you'd have to do that from Windows Explorer (not Firefox).
    The Window should however remember what folder you were in last.

  • HT2455 how do I change the order of the songs on my playlist?

    I have 68 songs on my playlist.  Somehow the songs are all in alphabetical order, making my duplicates all play in a row.  How do I change the play order?

    indeed, that should be step #1.-
    but …
    Problem with 'types' or 'formats' is: people do mix containers (or media wrappers) with codecs,
    You mentioned avi - that's no format, just a wrapper. could contain, e.g. a dv-encoded video = all easy; could contain some propitaire CanopusDV = absolutely NoGo on Mac; could contain h264/30fps - go; could contain h264/60fps - nogo.
    etc etc-
    therefore .........
    Apple likes it convenient. Or, say, simple.
    so, iMovie is meant BY CONCEPT for camcorders.
    ... and most/all camcorder 'formats' are supported; connect a camera, and some smart import/conversion routines are automatically triggered.
    the same mts 'orphanized' as a 'file' is impossible to be read by iMovie, but fully compatible, if from an intact AVCHD structure.
    …I bow to your superior technical knowledge
    … just bitter sweet experience
    not needed, if iM used as intended.
    needed, when abusing the app .....
    iMovie is no 'edits all moving images app'.-
    happy movie making!

  • How do you change the speed of a detached audio clip?

    I have a piece of detached audio.  Video Frame rate is 23.98.  The piece of Video above it is Video Frame Rate 24.
    How do I change the speed of this detached audio clip?

    Nope, the Automatic Speed did not work.  I exported the XML, and then ran it through X2Pro to try and get my AAF, and it still spits out conform warnings/errors on those same spots.  Automatic Speed apparently did nothing helpful to my situation.  (Can Anyone explain Automatic Speed?)
    Will have to try going through Cinema Tools per the similar issues noted in this conversation: http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/344/28007
    Curious to see what FCPX would do with this media, importing the 24p file to a 25 Project cause a noticeable shift in both time and pitch.
    I imported the time coded audio separately, and played it against the obviously speed and pitched changed video with embedded audio. The files did not sync.
    The audio remained in time and pitch, while the video didn't. So the audio tc doesn't seem to effect playback in FCPX, but video definitely does, and it seems rather buggy.
    So, if your video is 24.0 and your audio is 23.98 and you are in a 23.98 timeline, FCPX might be changing the speed of the video without really reporting it. Resetting speed doesn't do anything, hitting "automatic speed" screws it up a bit more (it goes the wrong way). Changing the speed to something like 96% (FCPX reports 96% but I know it's really ((24000/1001)/25) which is just short of 96%. Turning off the "preserve pitch" checkbox actually pitched the audio back to normal.
    I didn't create the 24.0 vs 23.9 media that you have, but perhaps you are having similar issues, or a different combination/permutation therein.
    But to answer your question, the time coded audio was not changed, only embedded audio.
    and
    But here some notes which makes things hopefully clearer.
    Resampling and changing playback speed are two totally different things.
    Samplerate for audio is the same as fps for video (not dpi for video) so let's call it sps.
    You can record audio at any sampling rate. But let's take 48 kHz and 32 kHz here.
    Record 60 seconds. Once recorded both files as stand alone files will play 60 seconds.
    But forced to play back in a NLE timeline with a fixed sps of 48 the first file will playback correctly. The second one will play at 2/3 of the time (32/48). The other way round the 48 sps file will play longer in a 32 sps timeline.
    Now for those poor guys who have to work with NTSC:
    A real world second is not a second in NTSC video world. Its 1001/1000 seconds.
    So selecting a 48k sps audio preset in a timeline preset means that a real world audio of 60 seconds is only 1000/1001x60. That means that those 60 seconds are only 59.94 seconds long. Its too short.
    One way - if you stay strictly in NTSC - is to record audio with 48048 Hz. This way a real world 1 second audio will match a 1 second NTSC video.
    Next option with BWAVE files is to change the playback settings in the BEXT header of the file. This won't resample the file!!!
    Now about the TC. BWAVE doesn't have a TC in a way you're used when handling video. It has a timestamp in the header. This timestamp contains the Samples after Midnight. Based on that the NLE will convert this to TC which can be displayed. So in NTSC world this might give a wrong interpretation.
    For example if you have a "Start TC" of 00:10:00:00 (thats what you see on your audio recorder) it means that using 48kHz the timestamp is at 600x48,000 = 28,800,000 samples. Since the real sampling rate in the timeline though is 48048 Hz you have to divide the source stamp by this number. This results in 9.99000999000999 minutes. So for a 23.976 fps project this is a TC of 00:09:59:10.
    So setting the Bext header and/or iXML chunk to the correct playback speed will keep everything intact. Again this is without resampling!
    Using an AIFF there aren't these options.
    So you can edit all the stuff without resampling when using BWAVE. But resampling will happen when you export a final movie.

  • How do I change the bit rate for dls?? How times can I download one song??

    I'm new to iTunes. I already downloaded 3 songs when I realized that the default bit rate is 128Kbps. I tried changing the bit rate to 192Kbps with a (Variable Bit Rate) checked.....unfortunately when I downloaded the next 2 songs the bit rate turned out to be the same.
    Do I have to restart Windows or iTunes before downloading again?
    And now that I have 5 songs with a lower br than I wanted... in order for me to have(download) the song at the higher bit rate...Is it possible to download one song more than once?
    Thanx.

    You have no choice as to bit rate when purchasing from the iTunes Music Store. The official bit rate of all tracks there is 128 kbps (a very few have been reported to be at higher rates, but that's not a choice you can make, it's how the track was encoded by the record company). The setting in the iTunes Importing preference is for tracks you import from CDs only and has no effect on iTMS purchases.
    Is it possible to download one song more than once?
    No. Except in extraordinary circumstances, the iTMS allows only one download per purchase.
    Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Discussions page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic before you post a question.

  • How can I change the display of Inbox in my iPad's mail app- so that it takes up the full screen?

    How can I change the display of Inbox in my iPad's mail app- so that it takes up the whole screen, as opposed to just about one third; the other two thirds display the full text of the selected email?

    You can't change the display in the Mail app, if you are holding the iPad in landscape orientation then the left-hand third will be for navigation, and the right-hand two-thirds will be an email. If you hold the iPad in portrait orientation then the navigation section becomes a drop-down section.

  • How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the Bookmarks Library?

    How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the '''Bookmarks''' Library?
    Since the upgrade to version 9.0.1 of Firefox, the Bookmarks feature changes are confusing me. They seem to be confusing themselves as well. The list of bookmarks has changed. The font size is so small that my aging eyes cannot read it without fogging the screen with my breath. Some folders are out of alphabetical order (where I know they were previously good), and some are missing altogether (folders to which I frequently add references).
    As for missing or deranged files or folders, was there something that I should have done or now need to do to recover those after the upgrade (or before)?
    With regard to font size,
    1. there is no “Edit Bookmarks” or like option to edit the list in this version
    2. the “zoom” option in the “view” list of functions is greyed out when in “Show All Bookmarks” window
    3. expanding the browser window has no effect on font size
    4. “Preferences” settings for font size has no effect in that window either, including advanced settings
    5. “Help” offers none that I can find.
    Can any of you Help?!?

    Maybe this extension helps:
