How to rip lossless high res audio from VIDEO_TS folder (DVD)?

Freeware would be nice but I'll pay if I have to.
I want to rip the audio from a DVD Video disc (not a DVD Audio disc - already got that covered).
Let me be clear here so as to avoid all the lossy suggestions.
I need to rip the full resolution audio to wav. If the DVD contains 24bit 96k audio, that's what I need in wav files with NO LOSS OF ANY KIND. 16/44.1 would not be OK. Don't even think of mentioning mp3.
I've seen "DVD Audio Extractor" mentioned but can't find an OSX version.
Thanks

I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt here in that I used to play in a band where occasionally the sound person would record the tracks and give us a CD afterward. Although we owned the music we still had to rip it from a CD to get it into another format.
Klaus1 is correct if what you want to do is with a DRM protected DVD. I will go out on a limb since strictly according to the Terms of Use the "no discussing" clause applies only to discussions on working around DRM protection (but frankly often any mention of any kind of DVD gets the hosts agitated and may well get this whole topic removed; still, if they don't want any talk of DVDs period then they should say so in the TOU). MPEGstreamclip might be able to do what you need. Again, that will only work with non DRM protected DVD (your family home videos).
By the way, just about any DVD audio is already in a compressed format, be it AC3 or other audio codec, so there is already loss in quality from a raw format such as AIFF or WAV. In analogy, even the highest bitrate MP3 or AAC file is not going to be identical to the original CD.

How do i create high res pdf from psd file?

Hi all,
I've been searching endlessly for this answer however I cant get the answer. My commercial printer is requesting a high resolution pdf file, and i created my artwork in photoshop 2. Can anyone tell me how to create a high res pdf with this file? Someone told me I need to purchase acrobat 9, however from research I've conducted there are no tutorials to achieve this either, and $500 is a little steep for a waste of time

What do you mean by "Photoshop 2"? Are you referring to Photoshop CS2?
If Photoshop CS2, then you have been given the proper instructions.
If the option shown is unavailable to you, then your Photoshop installation is scrogged. Reinstall it.

How can I import High res graphics from Photoshop?

I've figured out how to save the title graphic as a channel and as a tiff, then drag it into imovie but the resolution un-attractively low.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

If you select a bunch of layers in Photoshop, you can right click and make them into a Smart Object. It differs from using a Group, because the original is always kept in memory, so if you were to make it very very small, and then make it big again, you would not lose quality. You can do the same thing with a single layer for the same reason.
To edit a SO, double click it, and it will open in another Photoshop window. Make your changes, save them, and the original will be updated.
Photoshop CC 14.2 has added ‘linked SOs’ which are close to a holy grail in Photoshop, because a linked SO can be used in multiple image documents, and they will all update (when next opened) if the master SO is edited. That is a major new feature and much appreciated.
Adobe Dynamic Links are similar to the right click you used in InDesign. Items in a Premiere Pro timeline can be very easily edited in their original, or relevant Adobe application, directly from the PremPro timeline. This would be Photoshop, Audition, After Effects, Encore… It’s powerful stuff, and a huge time saver.

It is not possible to burn a high-quality audio CD in any version of iTunes.
iTunes burning is designed for quick, convenient burns directly from a playlist.
iTunes does not do the proper volume normalization or silence suppression that is required for a high-quality finished product.
If you are striving for quality, you can consider dedicated burning programs such as Toast, Nero, or Roxio.

How can i stream video and audio from macbook air to my tv?

how can i stream video and audio from macbook air to my tv?

Wirelessly: you need an AirPlay - enabled device such as an AppleTV.
Wired: if your TV has an HDMI port, you need a Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter such as this one:
Mini DisplayPort to HDMI® Adapter w/ Audio Support
If your TV does not have an HDMI port you will need a converter that will convert HDMI input to whatever input your TV requires.

How can I reinsert the deleted audio from clips in my sequence?

How can I reinsert the deleted audio from clips in my sequence?

I can tell you a work around to get you going in the meantime, just may be time consuming if you have a lot of clips in the timeline.
double click a clip missing audio
press the go to in point and copy the timecode to notepad
press the go to end point and copy timecode
right click clip, and reveal in project
double click the original in project
paste in timecode and set in & out points again
drag audio
As I said not the quickest way, but it works, and won't actually take as long as you'd think, 30 secs or so per clip, i just hope you don't have over 100 clips without audio

How can I Import 2 channel audio from a Sony PMW300 camera?

How can I Import 2 channel audio from a Sony PMW300 camera?

Terry Woolf
Thanks for the reply.
The link to your prior thread is
Audio
I suspect that the issue of no audio for your .mp4 file goes to your conversion method MXF to .mp4.
Please excuse if I am saying what you already know. When you import your video into Premiere Elements (in your case 12 Mac), a project
preset is established, either by you manually or the project automatically. That project preset contains a description of the project settings
for audio as well as video. Unless you select one of the project presets which are described for use with 5.1 channel, your audio in video audio
imports into a stereo project. It is in the export area that you will find your opportunity to customize (if necessary) the settings for audio.
In the project, if applicable to your situation, you can duplicate an audio channel (See Fill Left or Fill Right under fx Effects/Audio Effects).
Please let me ask this to make sure of the details.
If you import your .mp4 with 2 channel audio (derived from your .mxf convert and dragged to Video Track 1/Audio Track 1) and cannot hear the sound....
a. do you see any evidence for an audio file in the Timeline Audio track 1?
b. if you do, how many wave forms do you see, one or two?
c. if you have the audio meters opened while you are playing back the Timeline content in Edit area, do you see 1 or 2 channels and is
there activity in both.
d. when you import the file into Project Assets, do you observe any conforming activity going on in progress bar in the lower right cover of the workspace...if
so, do you wait for it to go to completion before continuing on?
We could also try deleting the conformed audio in the Media Cache Files Folder to force the program to re-conform the audio. See Edit Menu/Preferences/Scratch Disks should show you the location of the Media Cache Files Folder whose contents you will be deleting.
Please review and consider, and then let me know if I targeted your question. If not, please do not hesitate to let me know, and I will rethink my reply based
on your response.
Thank you.

Recording just audio from a video DVD

I thought I was ordering a CD with the music of a Broadway show. It turns out to have been a DVD of the entire production.
How do I get just the audio from the DVD into iTunes? And while I'm at it, once I get the audio, I'll need to strip the dialogue, and I haven't got any idea how to do that, either!
Hope someone can help!
Jimper

You can use Audio Hijack to record the audio from the Apple DVD player, which can be sent directly to iTunes as an ACC or AIFF file.
http://www.rogueamoeba.com/audiohijack/
Stripping the "dialog" (assuming dialog is spoken commentary during the performance??) will be much more difficult. There are techniques to use a an audio editing program such as Audacity
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
to invert a one side of a stereo track to remove vocals for Karaoke, but the sound quality will be greatly diminished, the bass and even the vocals may be removed.
So if there is "dialog" on all of the songs it may be cheaper to buy the CD.
Hope this helps.

How can I get iWeb gallery to display high-res images from iPhoto?

Hi,
I'm trying to add high-res images to an iWeb gallery from iPhoto and cannot get the gallery images to display in high-res (downloaded photos are fine). iWeb settings for importing unchecked for optimisation. Page in question: http://www.samuelboden.com/Samuel_Boden/Gallery.html
Any ideas?

Since iWeb has been discontinued by Apple I'm skeptical if you'll get any help on how to hack the application in order to have larger images in the slideshow. Since MobileMe will be discontinued this June 30 and with it the galleries you might stat looking for an alternative.
One alternative that gives the user considerable latitude in image size and quality is Jalbum. It offers nearly 100 themes or skins. This demo page has one theme that lets you change skins on the fly: Jalbum Examples plus a couple of others.

Why does "Print Booklet" from Indesign CS5.5 only create low res pdf? How do I get High Res for Offs

Long time ID user in Agency. Created a simple 4 page brochure in CS5.5 ID. Facing pages for cust size 11x17 half fold document.
Generating the pdf for Press and HQ Print renders a nice high res document, but the print booklet feature only produces a skinny low res version. Tried to mess with the printer settings, but the result is the same with a skinny low res document.
I didn't want to recreate the brochure as a two page manually imposed as I like the option of being able to add more pages in increments of four of course. Plus it's just silly to do that when ID is supposed to handle it for me.
I worked around it this time by printing to .ps output then distilling, and then splitting the document so printer could have a "front" and "back" 11x17. But this seems kludged big time. This has to be a bug unless I am missing something.

You probably never changed the default settings in the PDF printer properties. In the print booklet dialog, click the Print Settings button, then the Setup button at the bottom of the Print Dialog that pops up, choose the PDF printer and click on Preferences. Reset the default reset the default settings to the ones you really want to use, or reset them in Windows... Control Panel > Devices and Printers... Double-click the PDF printer, then from the print queue dialog, Printer > Properties... General tab and clcik the Preferences button.

How did I export a High-Res image from my FCP Project?

I know how to export still images using Quicktime Conversion. But it is possible to export High Resolution images from my FCP Project. You help would be much appreciated

Wow man, that's not the most efficient way to get stills. You can do this in FCP, it's easy. Here is what you do....
Go to EXPORT and then USING QUICKTIME CONVERSION
You will see a dropdown box in the right corner that says FILE FORMAT. Change that to STILL IMAGE.
Underneath you can choose which type of still Image you would like to convert the frame to (JPEG, PIC, PSD, etc) You can also change the quality
Hope this helps.

How do I get high res aperture images on new iPad?

I want high quality images synced from aperture. I bought the new ipad specificaly to do artwork and image maniuplations. I was loving the ipad 2 but working with such low res images won't work for reporduction. I thought with the new ipad when I synced to aperture that I would get higher res files. They look like the same small images to me.

Art,
I'm still working out the details myself, but I may have some helpful information.
If you are syncing through iTunes, then I believe the resolution is dictated by the preview preferences in Aperture. I can't remember what the default setting was, but I changed it to the maximum allowable for the iPad1 some time ago. The new iPad can handle more resolution, so you can change the setting in preferences to a higher level. Here is where it gets tricky, I don't think Aperture automatically updates the preview to the new settings. In fact, I it tells you it is up to date. I got past this by forcing the generate new preview feature (select the photo, hold down the option key, right click, and select generate preview). I suggest doing this with one photo to see how it works for you. Ff you do 1600 like I did, it takes some time. Although, I'm still hoping for better, I can see the difference immediately over my iPad1 settings. I am able to zoom in on the ipad, which much less obvious degradation of the image.
I did get some variation in the preview size, even though the full image sizes are close. My file size ranged from 800K to 2.8M for some sample images transferred to the ipad. This happened at the "no limit"setting in preferences.
As I said, I'm still playing with it. I bought the 64GB model so I could store and present very high resolution photos on the iPad.

Confused between best/high-res export from FCP

Oh the pain of making stuff up as you go along!! I need to say that since what I am about to ask may sound incredibly amature, but then again, that's what I am.
I use FCP6, and usually send my timeline straight to Compressor and choosing "DVD:Best Quality 90 minutes." Now being the amature I am, I just went for the option with the "Best" in it. My videos look great, but now I am getting a question from a client asking if their dvd will be in High Res? This made me carefully inspect my settings in FCP which are as follows:
Frame Size: 1920 x 1080 (HDTV 1080i (16:9))
Pixel Aspect Ratio: Square
Field Dom: Upper (Odd)
Editing Timebase: 29.97
QuickTime Video Settings
Compressor: Apple ProRes 422 (HQ)
Video Processing
Reder 10-bit material in high precision YUV
Motion filtering Quality: Best
So I want to make sure that I am providing High Res. I realize that HD is not DVD and therefore my DVD's are SD. But I want to make sure that I am giving the best under my program'(s) ability. So I've search the chat rooms and have found that some people say to export timelines via QuickTime as with Current settings and that will provide the best. However, I have heard also that I should use Compressor for this. The problem is that I realy, truly don't know which settings to choose from if I go with Compressor based on my Timeline's settings.
Finally, the really stupid part of my question(s); Is High Res considered HD, or just the highest possible with SD, or simply Blue-Ray?
And there you have it. Thank you so much in advance.
Crayton

Hey Shane, thank you for your response.
I have some follow up questions for you;
1. Do you recommend exporting my timeline as a QuickTime and then simply sending that to authoring, or QT then to Compressor or Compressor only?
2. My authoring software is DVDSP. Under the preferences, I always and obviously have it check for SD. Should I change it to HD? This is a weird question I know since there is no HD for DVD, but it confuses me further since why does this option exist in DVDSP? If I did use this option, would it make my DVD un-watchable? (if that is even a word
3. Finaly question and soon to be an issue that I am going to be faced with. I have been filming for a client for a year now and I've filmed it all in HD. They now want me to begin to prepare the videos to be broadcast on TV. The station they have been working with has told them to tell their "video guy" (me I guess) to make sure that the end result or output be in HD. I have to put together 28min and 30 sec segments each week once the show begins. Again, I've filmed, captured and edited in HD, but how do I get them their segments? And should I also export them as QuickTime Self Contained? If I did the QT, doesn't that simply take your timeline files and make them into one viewable file but not compressing them thereby leaving it in the HD format it was edited in?
Crap sorry, I decieved you.......I made it look like there was only 3 questions...........sorry:)
Thanks again man,
Crayton
