How to use airplay speakers in multi-output device without crackling audio?

Hi,
I would like to mirror the audio output from my mac mini to the built-in output and an airplay speaker.
Therefore I added a Multi-Output Device containing the Built-in- and Airplay output, as soon as I activate the airplay speaker the sound is mirrored but unfortunately always with a crackling sound coming of the speakers set as "slave Device"... only the Device set as "Master Device" has clear sound, doesn't matter if it's the airplay speaker or the speaker (or headphone) directly connected to the built-in output.
I've tested this with a mac mini and an mac book air as audio source, same problem. Both were running Mac OS V. 10.9.2.
Does anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong?

I'm using a 2011 Macbook Pro running Mavericks and current Apple TV (MD199HK/A 3rd generation) when trying to output audio to both Apple TV and built-in output simultaneously I suffer crackling and popping. I have this issue once I use Audio MIDI Setup (under utilities) to create a Multi-Output Devise. Once I use this multi-output devise made up of Apple TV and Built-In Output to get my music to both output devises at once BUT I get crackling sound on either Spotify or iTunes.
I've worked around this issue by using AirParrot. I select Apple TV in AirParrot with Audio enabled. The Apple TV then takes all audio output, then I select the 'Multi-Output Devise created in 'Audio MIDI Setup' and I have playback through Apple TV and Built-In Output without any crackling or popping.
Only minor outstanding issue is that whatever scenario I then run Audio Midi Setup in terms of setting various devises as Master Clock and resampling of sub devise I can't perfect the sync between Apple TV audio output and my local Macbook Pro, but close enough with the slightest hint of echo. Plenty of forums discussing Word Clock sync which is out of my league. Un-ticking drift correction on the 'AirParrot' audio output has them close enough, depends on how easily you can hear your apple TV output from the room where your Macbook Pro is and vice versa.

How to use iCloud on more than 5 devices without constant de-authorizing/authorizing devices

I have more than 5 Apple devices, laptops, and PCs. How do I use my iTunes and iCloud on all of them without constant authorizing/de-authorizing them? It is very annoying.

I have iPods, iPads, iPhones, iTVs, MacBook > than 10 iDevices, I have PCs and laptops with multiple OSes > 10. I subscribed to iTunes Match, can't fully benefit from the convenience of iCloud with these limits. Is there a way to increase these limits?

The device is in use by another process - error - cannot select Multi Output Device - Mac OSX 10.8.2

Dear Adobe Users!
Please help!
I'm using Adobe Audition CS5.5 on a Mac - OSX 10.8.2 (latest version of Mountain Lion) and I'm trying to select a Multi-Output device.
This was working FINE last few days - today, I get an error. I've tried to re-install Adobe Audition and that hasn't fixed the problem. When it first started up it said it couldn't find any audio devices at all.
Please can you help? I'm getting a message saying the device is being used by another process - but it's not being used by anything else at all!
Hope you are able to help! I use the multi output device option so I can record what I can hear. I spent two days trying to sort that out after it all-of-a-sudden didn't work last Thursday.
Now just spent last two hours trying to get Adobe to recognise the Multi Output device - it's been working fine last few days!
Many thanks if you're able to help!
- Rory

Durin,
May have sussed it! It seems that Built-in output was the way to have it for Audition CS5.5 to record what I'm hearing! Yes, the multi-device needs to be used - but in another settings.
Here's how I have each section configured and it now works!
First of all, in Audition > Preferences > Audio Hardware:-
Then, on the Mac's OS - System Preferences > Sounds (input settings)
Then Output settings :-
Then Midi Settings found in Finder > Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI set up
All now seems to be working! I'll let you know if anything further happens!
I was certain I had the output device as Multi Device Output on Adobe before, perhaps it should've been set to Built-in Audio all along. Anyway, I re-installed my Mac from Time Machine, logged in as another user and it worked under that profile, then logged back in as me - and am using the settings in the pics above and all seems to be working!
It's been a long week, perhaps I was just going around in circles and didn't actually test these particular settings yesterday in this order after all.
Thanks again for your help! Sorry if I've caused any confusion!

2012 Mac Mini - Using multi-output device?

I'm trying to get my Mini to output sound over HDMI and the headphone jack. This question has been asked before, but the answer wrongly claimed OSX didn't support it. The Audio MIDI Setup program (in the Utilities folder) does in fact let you set up a multi-output device that uses the headphone and hdmi out. But when I try to output sound with that device, I don't get anything.
Before I bought this computer, the Apple Store drone claimed this multi-output was possible. But this wouldn't be the first time I've talked to a complete idiot there.

Some more updates:
using multi-output and having the line out set as master prevents 5.1 surround from being output on HDMI, which is fine for my use. When I have something plugged into the headphone jack (in my case wireless outdoor speakers) the settings app won't even allow the settings app to choose HDMI as the audio output device, which is also likely why HDMI can't be master in the MIDI app.
So to get 5.1 surround back for movies I need to unplug whatever's in the headphone jack and change the output device from the multi-output option to HDMI. It's sad my 6 year old PS3 handles this more elegantly and sensibly but at least I don't have to take back my Mini now

How to use logger to send any output instead of the console?

How to use logger to send any output instead of the console?

How to use logger to send any output instead of the
console?There are three commonly used logger inferfaces, the log4j, the java.util.loging and the Commons logging (which works with either.)
You create a logger object, generally one for each class. Normally a private static variable points to it and it has a name equal to the FQN of the class.
e.g.
package org.widget;
public class MyClass {
private static Logger log = Logger.getLogger("org.widget.MyClass");That's the java.uitil.Logger formula.
Then there are method on the logger to call for various kinds of output. There' are different logging levels, priorities like SEVERE or DEBUG. When running the logs are configured to ignore messages of less than a set priority.
You can also pass an Exception or Error to the logger which will log the stack trace.

How to use a dictionary for multi languages when displaying mess

how to use a dictionary for multi languages when displaying messages??

1st you have to define new messages in the dictionary:-
1.     We have to open the application.
2.     Functional administrator responsibility.
3.     Core services.
4.     Messages.
•     Create message button.
•     Now fill the name of the message that we want to call it from our code in the Code field.
•     Fill the application name with short name of the application.
•     Choose the language.
•     Set the text you want to be displayed.
2nd, Now in the CO in the in the process form request you will code throw new OAException ("application short name","Code").
Now run and see the result.
3rd we want to use Arabic messages, use the same one you have created for saving as an example but you choose duplicate and set the language Arabic.
•     Run the page.
•     Choose preferences.
•     Current Session language = Arabic.

Hi ChrisBell,
my Pixi shows me the missed calls in a list of its own? I don't have many, so maybe I'm missing something. But I agree with your half-ranting to some degree. As a long-time Palm-user (my last phone was a Treo 680, terrible form factor, good UI), I am really disappointed with the standard software on this phone. Memos and Tasks, which AFAIK were there and useful even on the first Newton's, have regressed beyond the point of usefulness now (solution: Toodledo and Done!, at least for now).
But ChrisBell: if you feel up for it, you could start tinkering. Many people love these phones so much they have started developing patches to solve the obvious problems skimmed over by developers. Try looking up "webosquickinstall" and "preware", and you will find over 300 patches and a lot of free software to help you out. I am not a computer wizard myself, but I am not scared of them either, and I have been able to make good use of all these extras made available by the community.
just a thought, might help you out on a few of your half-rants

Is there a way to be able to still control volume while using a multi-output device?

I just need to know if I can still control volume while using a multi-output device (or an aggregate device, whichever one blocks the volume changing) because I am trying to record my screen using Quicktime while recording sound on my screen (using soundflower). Any suggestions? I am happy to download an external program to fix it.

Hello,
Well we already found that answer somewhere on a forum, I guess you mean add the URL to firewall exception,
but this doesn't fit Company Security Standard, in my company we cannot allow a computer access internet
directly exception or not, it is very sad that a company such as Adobe is not able to produce a tool that is
Proxy Aware for all it's functions (Software activation, Software Serial Checking etc. all doesn't behave the same way).
We need a solution ASAP as many of our users are not able to use their Adobe Softwares.

HT202000 How can I fix a noise problem in multi-output device?

I've created "multi-output device" in Audio MIDI Setup, added both outputs to the list of devices, so this setup outputs sound to both devices at once. Problem is that there is noise.
Whatever output is set as "Master device", it does not suffer from noise, but the other has frequent loud clicks (just like if audio frame is being ripped).

I'm suffering from the same thing.
Whichever device isn't "Master" suffers from static prickling sound.
Tested between Macbook pro retina + cinema display (using both audio outputs)
Paired with a Bose mini soundlink bluetooth speaker.
Tried playing around with Sample Rates and Drift Correction to no avail

Can any one suggest me how to use drawPixels method for 40 series devices

Hello!
I am using drawPixels method of DirectGraphics class the code I have written is :-
Image offscreen=DirectUtils.createImage(width,height,0x00000000);// width and heights are integer value
public final int MODEL=DirectGraphics.TYPE_INT_8888_ARGB ;
Graphics offgra = offscreen.getGraphics();
DirectGraphics directgraphics = DirectUtils.getDirectGraphics(offgra);
directgraphics.drawPixels(imgData,false,0,width,0,0,width,height,0,MODEL); // imgData is a int array(int imgData[]) which contains required pixels of image.
The above code is working fine with NOKIA 60 series device but when i use it with NOKIA 40 series device it gives java.lang.IllegalArgumentException.
same time if i use :-
directgraphics.drawPixels(imgData,false,0,width,0,0,width,height,0,DirectGraphics .TYPE_USHORT_4444_ARGB ) ;
// imgData is a short array(short imgData[]) which contains required pixels of image. i have used different formet here.
it works fine with 40 series device,
can any one suggest me how to use drawPixels method for 40 series devices with format
DirectGraphics .TYPE_INT_8888_ARGB .

How can i use airplay with apple tv on a set of audio speakers?

hello there,
i've got a problem with my stereo apple tv combination.
my TV does support HDMI so i can use my apple tv on my HDTV. only my audio is being played on my internal speakers of my HDTV. I do have a set of speakers. but it doesn't support optical audio out. so i was wondering if its possible to use an Airport Express en plug my speakers in there. then wirelessly send the audio from my apple tv to my Airport/speakers. do any of you think that thats possible?? cause i really can't find another way to transfer my audio to my speakers...
Thanks alot!!

Unfortunately you can't send audio from the Apple TV to an airport express, but you can send audio from your mac/pc to the airport express via iTunes/Airplay, you could also send audio from an iPod/iPhone to the express. The express supports both optical and 3.5 mm in a unified port.
