MP4Converter Software Studio

I have purchased the Apple TV Video Converter for Mac (14301-12) and I have not been able to successfully use this software to convert any of my movie files to MPEG 4 for Apple TV. Most of the time I get the "spinning colored wheel of death" or it tells me it failed. I have gone back to the software company (TopVideoPro) a number of times, but they have not given me any solution(s) or advice. Finally, I told them to credit my credit card because their software is worthless to me. In an e-mail I received today, they refused. I cannot recommend doing business with a company that will not adequately support their product.

There seems to be a wave of sub-standard software for iPod/Apple TV being promoted by dubious means in this forum & throughout the Internet. They all tend to have the same identifying characteristics:
• Promotional web pages with poor grammar or punctuation, awkward phrases, etc.
• Vague claims about being "top selling" or "editor's choice" software, sometimes with lots of badges/logos proclaiming five star or similar ratings from dubious web rings that seem to exist mostly to sell these & similar products. The "editors" usually are unnamed or obviously are connected to the site operator(s).
• Multiple products with confusing names, frequently appearing to come from different vendors, yet somehow all available for sale from the web site.
• Links to "reviews" superficially similar to legitimate product surveys that ignore the existence of well-known conversion products (mostly freeware) that Discussions members consistently recommend from first-hand experience. In this universe, these products don't exist.
• Links to numerous "how to" articles that (surprise!) all require the touted software, along with ones to commentary on the wonders of Apple TV, iPods, digital lifestyle, etc.
Links to these shams are frequently posted to this forum, posing as helpful tips, under various screen names. The posters rarely claim first-hand knowledge of the software, answers posts in reply to them, or mentions anything else.

  • How to use itunes for making video with software Studio

    How can I use my downloaded music files with my video making software?

    Purchased music from the iTUnes store is in a "AAC protected" format. It can only be used in iTUnes. Any music you buy online these days will have some protection on it where you can only use it in there program.
    The way around this is to burn the purchased songs to a CD in iTUnes. Then goto edit>preferences>advanced tab>Import sub tab and set your import settings to something like MP3.
    Now put the burned CD back in the PC and "Re"import it into iTunes so its imported in a MP3 format so you can use it in any program. Before importing it tho you need to manually add the name of the song, artist album ect ect

  • Cant burn DL+R DVD media with 20" iSight iMac

    Apple spec pages say this system's superdrive can do DL+R, System Profiler/Disk Burning/DVD Write sometimes says DL+R, but most of the time it just lists -R, -RW.
    I'm trying to burn with Toast 7. Toast sees the DL media, and claims the drive will burn DL+R, but when I go to burn it just gets stuck on "Preparing" and never actually burns. Cant completely kill the application and must restart the iMac to eject the media.
    Using Mitsubishi brand media.
    Here's what System Profiler says today (though five minutes ago, it did say it supported DL+R)
    MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-846:
    Firmware Revision: FA0G
    Interconnect: ATAPI

    Any advice is appreciated.

    I have the same problem. I have just bought DVD Creator from MP4Converter Software Studio. And it works great with DVD-R 4.7Gb disks. But when I try to burn DVD+R DL disks they eject after about 50 seconds and I get a prompt "Burn failed". I have tried saving the files as both DVD Folder and DVD Image but the result is the same for both. I bought DVD+R DL because that is what is specified in my System Profiler.
    System Profiler detects the disk correctly:

  • Is Adobe encouraging software piracy?

    I have Studio MX2004 and have just bought a Mac as my PC got
    to the point of crashing or resetting itself with every program
    opened. I decided instead of constant PC repair bills that I would
    get a computer that works and is free of constant security attacks,
    and I did always have up-to-date anti-virus and anti-spam software,
    it was hardware problems, most of which had been replaced (sold to
    me) in efforts to resolve problems.
    Now, Adobe UK say they can crossgrade a licence up to five
    times and only if it's the latest version. What do you think? Get
    an illegal copy just to do what it says on the Studio MX2004 box
    that it can do? What have I already paid hundreds of pounds for
    (about US$1200)? Should I get an upgrade that I don't need putting
    myself into massive debt that could potentially bankrupt me? Sounds
    like an invitation to try software piracy?
    Would you use pirated software to use what you have already paid
    for?
    When my PC wasn't crashing (very rarely), using Dreamweaver
    was fantastic. I've now got a Mac and used the same installation
    disc to install the same software - Studio 8 - and it works great
    (almost). In Windows I can copy and paste a table from Excel into a
    webpage in Dreamweaver, on the Mac all formatting gets removed and
    it's pasted in as normal text. I can't afford to get Office for
    Mac, let alone the demanded Adobe upgrade (I've spent over a
    thousand pounds on the Mac itself). So instead of using Office for
    Mac, I am copying the table from Neo Office (Open Office on Mac),
    perhaps this is the problem.
    Can you, using a Mac, copy a table from NeoOffice or Excel into
    Dreamweaver and not lose the table elements?

    No. But you are....

  • Pinnacle Studio 16

    Which type of graphic card is most suitable for the video editing software Studio 16 ultimate from Pinnacle?

    Quote from: Svet on 20-November-12, 00:42:13
    you can check System Requirements at their site
    Thanks Svet, I already did but in the system requirements is only stated that 600 series is suitable. My question is whether it is usefull to go for a high end card or will a a mid range card be sufficient too. (I do not play any kind of games that require top of the bill graphics cards).

  • Nokia N96 - A long review!

    The Nokia N96 Long Review by Jupstejuho
    v. 1
    (Please notice that this is the first published version so I will
    be making this much longer a bit later if you just want me to do so)
    In this case I have only reviewed the phone's main software
    things, not many of its good-too features.
    --> A BIT INFO -->
    Firmware used: Unbranded Scandinavian v11, upgraded to that from v10 wich was originally branded
    Phone used: Elisa Finland network branded, simlocked Nokia N96-1
    Operator used: Elisa Finland
    Memory card used: 512MB (have not actually even touched it as the 16GB has been fine for me
    More settings used: Screen brighness set to full 100%, display light set to disappear after
    30 seconds of inactivity, Online mode always on. Screensaver set to none.
    1. THE FIRST WORDS
    OK, as all of the active Nokia people around the internet already know, there
    are many reviews in the internet considering about the famous, all-new Nokia
    N96 smartphone. It is a new part of the Nokia´s 3rd generation phone series,
    the N-Series. The Nokia's N-Series is a quite big group of some really good
    phones using much more advanced technology than the previous camera phones
    that Nokia, and many other well-known phone companies have made. That is the
    Nokia's N-Series in short. But, I am not writing this long review for all you
    Nokia-People to just tell you what Nokia N-Series is, you basically did not
    come here to read about that. I am writing this because I want to show you
    my first feelings about the Nokia N96. I hope you have time to read the whole
    review
    2. ABOUT THE PHONE'S DESIGN, LOOK ETC. ALL ITS OUTSIDE-SEEING THINGS
    So let's start from the usually first things that most people want to know
    about a phone before buying it, the phone's ergonomy. The Nokia N96 feels
    really, really good in my hand. Althought the phone seems to be quite big,
    it fits in almost anybody's hands really well. It is not so thick, comparing
    to my good old Nokia N91. And that impressed me pretty much. The phone is
    relatively wide, but does not weight much (about 120 grams). The phone's
    outlook is something I like, it is somehow much like the Apple's iPhone
    within its big screen and black'n'white and grey colours. But, I was very
    sad when I actually realized the biggest mistake made in the phone's
    design. Its outer casing is actually made from cheap plastics, wich leads
    to the very unliked feature... The Nokia N96's cheap plastics are in all
    only not good-looking, but also really effective fingerprint magnets! The
    phone's outer casing takes fingerprints really easily, and you can see
    them very well in a bright sunlight, that is something I really hate. But,
    that is luckily the only problem on the phone's design, I think. Just that
    the phone's front side is quite widely crowded with many buttons. I really
    like the phone's frontside's media button, as it reminds me of my good
    old Nokia N91's Musicmenu-key. It is surrounded with the play/pause, stop,
    forward and backward keys, and the already-known menu key, C-key (also known
    as the backspace key) plus the green & red answering keys and the two
    softkeys. All this is has been made to fit around the phone's joystick,
    wich also had to include the handy Naviwheel option, but they removed it from
    the software, wich is sad in my opinion. They have removed the handy
    pen-key, wich formerly worked pretty well as a shortcut for many nice
    programs that i used to play around with my old Nokia N91, that is sad but
    I guess they had a good enough reason for removing the key.
    >>> To the phone itself, features etc.
    3. PHONE'S USER INTERFACE IN ALL
    The Nokia N96 uses the same OS that almost all N-Series devices use, the
    Symbian S60 3RD. But this time it is not just that. The Nokia N96 is one
    of the first phone's to get the new, famous Feature Pack 2 (FP2). A feature
    pack is like the "Microsoft Service Pack" for phones. Just that you cannot
    upgrade any NON-FP/FP1 device to FP2 unless you really are an employer of
    Nokia, and that the Feature Packs are for phones, not for computers
    Symbian S60 3RD is the 3rd edition of the famous Symbian OS for phones,
    wich has all the features that are required in order to say that a phone
    is REALLY a Smartphone. OK, I am now comparing the FP2 Nokia N96 to my old
    Pre-FP1/Non-FP1 Nokia N91. The phone's standby screen is pretty much the
    same. Just that you can also set the standby screen to be in 3 different
    modes. No active standby at all (The old S60 style), the normal already
    known active standby row of 6 different program shortcuts and a new
    arrangement, the one that is more complicated. It has the icons in the right
    side of the phone's standby/idlescreen and you choose the icon and you see
    its features at right side. Anyways, I chose the good old S60 3RD arrangement
    as it is not too complicated for me. Going to the phone's menu is easy, you
    just press the menu-key and that's that. The taskmanager is renewed, this
    time it is horizontal and looks better (I guess they have made the idea from
    the nice IQ AltTab program wich I used to use with my old Nokia N91. Yeah,
    well pretty much nothing has changed. The phone's messages application has
    been also renewed... It now has only 2 message types: Text Message and Sound
    Message. If you want to send somebody a MMS wich contains a sound clip,
    that means you have to choose the Sound Message-option. If you want to send
    a normal SMS, or an MMS wich contains picture or video etc, you have to
    choose the Text Message-option. Just choose that and write your message.
    If you only add text into that, you are sending a normal SMS automatically.
    Add any MMS-content in it and it will automatically be an MMS message.
    That is a quite nice new feature. The phone also has a new Themes-application
    and its icon has been removed from the phone's menu! You can get to it by
    setting up an active standby shortcut for it but it will take you straight
    to the Active-Standby Themestyle option wich is a part of the Themes
    application. The phone still lags pretty much, as it is brand new.
    The same problem was with the Nokia N95 when it first came. I guess the
    phone does not have so much features that the Nokia N95 does not have.
    Well that's all about that.
    4. MEDIA COMPLETION
    The Nokia N96 is advertised as a Videoplayer phone. That is true, but that
    was not the reason why I bought the phone. The phone can play MP4, 3GP and
    surprisingly they are advertising that the phone can also play WMV9 videos.
    That is actually true, but the phone did only play the video's sound, not
    the video itself Well that is OK for me as I do not have a reason for
    playing WMV videos with my PHONE. The phone can also of course play music
    but supports only a little amount of filetypes. Pictures are (surprise,
    surprise) supported too.
    4.1 DVB-H
    One of the phone's new main features is the DVB-H (Digital Video Broadcasting
    Handheld) receiver. That means that you can watch digital television wherever
    that is available. Here in Finland we can only receive DVB-H signal in the
    big cities (luckily I live in Oulu and I can receive DVB-H signal in here...)
    But I would be pleased if I could be able to see that signal in places like
    cars, trains, planes and ferries but that is not gonna be possible ever,
    because only a really small amount of phones have the DVB-H and hardly anybody
    watches it. I do not look it unless I have a good reason as it takes a lot
    battery. You can also record DVB-H and schedule recordings, that means you
    actually have a recording television receiver in your pocket But I do not
    have any reasons to do such a thing.
    4.2 VIDEOS
    The phone, as I said earlier, is being advertised as a pocket-sized video
    player. The phone has some pre-loaded factory videos (Some advertising
    videos and 1 Transformers Movie). I tested DivXPlayer and it played
    small video files (like 100-200MB) really well but when I tested a 350MB
    TV-Series episode, it lagged all the time after playing it for 2 minutes.
    I also tested CorePlayer and Smartmovie and they both had the same problems
    except that the CorePlayer played the file hardly for 2 seconds and started
    lagging. But I converted the same file with SmartMovie converter to a 80MB
    file and it had much worse quality but still it played with no lagging at
    all You can also convert any video to a .3GP or .MP4 file but I guess
    that it is better to play your video files with SmartMovie or DivXPlayer.
    The videos captured with the phone's camera are relatively big, a 4minutes
    long video with the best possible quality that the camera has, is over
    50MB big. Oh, and one more thing: I just also realized that the phone
    supports Winamp Remote really well. Just for all of you who are not familiar
    with the Winamp Remote: Winamp Remote is an application wich lets you watch
    any videos from your computer´s hard drive over an internet connecton with
    quite high quality. I tried that and I was amazed that it worked. Althought
    you have to put the flash player as default way playing the video, because
    it laggs too much when watched using the Real Player. Oh, and that brings
    one another thing to my mind: The Nokia's default web browser now also
    supports Flash videos I tried youtube and it worked pretty well. And,
    as I said earlier the Winamp remote Flash Videoplayer also was able to play
    my PC´S videos So, Nokia N96 is good for what it is originally meant for:
    PLAYING HIGH-QUALITY VIDEOS ANYWHERE, ANYTIME whenever you need to do so.
    4.3 MUSIC
    The phone has music keys and I just love them. But the music player is not
    anymore being started automatically when the phone is being started and
    that means you have to manually put it on if you want to be able to use
    the music buttons for playing music. That sucks. The phone has really nice
    stereo speakers and they are very loud and I just love them. The earphones
    supplied with the phone are really, I mean REALLY bad. They suck, but with
    20-40 € you can get some good earphones like KOSS. They have also removed
    an old really nice feature. The phone always lists the newest added music
    tracks to a list, but you cannot anymore add the newest tracks easily to
    another self-made playlist. That is what I hate as I used to do that with
    my old Nokia N91. :@ That sucks, I don´t know why on earth they made such
    a change in the Music Player. Quality of the music played with good
    earphones is quite amazing. But also playing music eats the battery as fast
    as a worm diggs itself into mud, you cannot play the music so long time,
    but as I am not a music freeak that does not matter so much to me (I prefer
    listening to .XM keygen music with my computer and Logitech speakers) But
    I can also listen to Keygen music with the LCG Jukebox, I have done that
    once for real at school and I just loved that as it made me more creative
    at the arts lesson
    4.4 PICTURES/CAMERA
    The phone has a 5MP camera with a LED flash and a red LED light
    to "help" with taking videos The phone takes really good images
    especially when the phone's flash is used. It can take amazingly good
    pictures even when there is no sunlight at all The flash is really
    amazing. I don´t know why, but I even think that it takes better pictures
    at night comparing to the pictures taken at daylight. Umm, I guess you
    can use the phone as a camera in emergency situations when you need to
    be able to take a picture of a good situation. The front camera wich is
    intended for Video calls takes really awful pictures when there is not
    enough light, especially the videos ARE JUST AWFUL but that is just because
    who would use the front camera to take pictures of anything else (just for
    testing purposes and taking some stupid images of yourself Um, and yeah I was
    surprised about that, but it does not matter at all anymore Taking videos
    with the 5MP camera at the back is nice because they have quite good quality!
    But they are also relatively big and I guess that is one more feature that sucks,
    as the video quality is not too good! One more new and really nice feature is
    that you can set the phone to automatically save the location where the picture
    was taken into the picture's metadata and view the location in the Nokia Maps
    application. Almost all photos that I have took with my phone have a "geotag".
    5. NAVIGATING/GPS
    The Nokia N96 also has a GPS receiver with A-GPS support. I was first surprised
    that the phone really knows where you are in just 10 seconds or a bit more. But
    when I noticed that it is only caused because the phone has A-GPS and I had set
    it on. And what is so bad about that? The A-GPS does not know where you are so
    specifically, the accuracy in A-GPS is almost everytimes something like 100
    meters so using the phone as a navigator is not so good but I guess it is just
    fine for me! The phone has 1 year navigating license for the Nokia Maps application
    (wich BTW sucks), but I prefer Garmin wich is better in all ways But while I
    was testing navigating in the car, it was working fine. When Garmin said that
    "waiting for better GPS signal", it only took about 5 seconds for it to already
    show me that it had a full signal with 5-10m accuracy! Yum that is going to be
    a nice feature because I am going to use it while travelling at Europe next summer.
    Navigating is much, much better comparing, for example to the Nokia E90 and
    some external Bluetooth GPS receivers. I am pleased that I know that I am always
    carrying a really powerful GPS navigator in my pocket, and it is ready whenever
    i just need it to be used
    6. N-GAGE/GAMES
    Nokia N96 also has pre-installed Tetris and an activation code for that is being
    given with the phone (wich BTW WAS NOT WORKING FOR ME!). I installed brothers
    in arms AND IT LAGGED LIKE A HELL?! What the hell is the problem with that, they
    did not add a 3D Accelerator chip to the phone and they are still advertising
    it as a "Good N-Gage gaming phone" Haha, I just shall laugh about that. I guess
    I WILL NOT BE USING THE PHONE FOR GAMING THEN. So overall, if you did not already
    understand my opinion about the Gaming features in the phone: DO NOT THINK THAT
    THE PHONE IS GOOD IN GAMING... Also, tried Vampent´s vNes and it was not able
    to start emulating (it was when I tried with my Nokia N91! Well, also the joystick
    is a limitation wich makes it nearly impossible to play games with the phone.
    It actually isn´t a joystick at all (they do not even advertise it to be that
    I liked my old Nokia N91's joystick as it was really nice for playing games! But
    playing games like Tetris should be fine. Also I will be going to try playing
    games with the numeric keys, maybe that will be fine ;D
    7. THE 16GB MEMORY + SDHC Memory Card place with hotswap support!
    Yep, that´s true. I was first really impressed when I heard that the Nokia N96
    has a HUGE 16GB memory and also A SDHC memory card spot. That was one of the
    main reasons why I really said myself: If I am going to buy a phone, it will
    definitely be the Nokia N96 unless something REALLY impressive will become
    to the markets. I put my favorite tracks and kept almost all of the factory-loaded
    videos in the phone and I still have a bit over 10GB free space (I also took about
    hundred photos) not even mentioning that I also have installed Garmin Mobile XT
    with all European maps to the phone (also Navicore and TomTom, they just weren´t
    working and I was too lazy to be able to remove them or try solving why they
    weren´t working) They are advertising that the phone can take up to 40 hours
    of good guality video. Yeah that is just amazing and it is true too. Borrowing
    to one guy's words who has been showing the N96 prototype at youtube: "So you
    really, really have enough space on this phone" That is so true. I just wonder
    what the hell I am going to do with all that 10GB left space ;D
    8. A FEW WORDS ABOUT THE BATTERY LIFE
    Many have complayed about the Nokia N96 battery life. I cannot understand why!
    It has better battery life than in by Nokia N91. Two listed examples by me:
    * I just charged the phone at around 7pm. I went to sleep and the clock was about
    10pm. Before that, I decided to put a 1 hour long TV episode to a scheduled
    recording. The phone did that very well. And I was surprised that when I looked
    at the phone's battery state: It showed me that it had 100% full battery life!
    And it kept there until I watched the whole 1 hour episode, then it still had
    6 bars left of the 7 bars maxium. Pretty impressive.
    * I put the phone to charge itself a few minutes before I went to sleep.
    At morning I went to school. At there I watched TV episodes using Winamp
    Remote for about 30-45 minutes. Then I listened to .XM keygen music with
    LCG Jukebox for about 2 hours! Also I was playing with the phone a bit more
    time too. When I went to home, it had something like 2 or 3 bars left. That
    is not a very good example but that is already enough for me, and the
    phone has had much better battery life after this case
    ---> [OVERALL REVIEWING] ---
    * The Nokia N96 is a good mediaphone but it is also enough
    good to be used as an officephone. The stereo speakers,
    DVB-H, GPS and a good camera, 16GB mass memory and a
    SDHC memorycard slot... That is just everything I would
    ever want from a phone! But all this comes with a price
    wich will make most people just dream about the phone,
    or buying it from an operator with a cheap price like
    I did. Even thought the firmware is buggy, I can still
    recommend the phone for anybody who likes to have a
    good-looking phone with all possible mediafeatures!
    The phone is still buggy but that was with the Nokia N95
    too. I cannot understand why people are saying that
    "Nokia N95 is soo much better and looks better..." that
    is so not true. The N96 beats N95 hands down! And overall,
    the phone would be too perfect if it would not have bugs,
    all new phones have bugs! Think about the iPhone, it was
    not even able to send a MMS message but it has been enabled
    in the new firmware update. Also iPhone has been buggy when
    it first came but it has been improved much. The same will
    100% surely happend with the Nokia N96 too! They already
    have released v11 wich has made my phone a bit faster too
    + A big screen with bunch of colours!
    + 5MP camera takes good quality photos
    + GPS finds location fast with the A-GPS feature
    + Really good stereo speakers!
    + Supports WMV
    + The phone is not too thick and it is smaller than N95
    + The phone just looks sooo good!
    + 16GB memory + A SDHC memorycard slot!
    + The phone's 1-9 keys are nice and they can be easily pressed even
    thought they are really flat! Writing with the phone is fast
    + The phone just looks so good!
    + DVB-H with scheduled recording and awesome quality!
    + Battery life is just enough!
    - The GPS is fast but mostly not accurate except at outside
    - Music-Player no longer gives an option to add a freshly added
    music track to another playlist I have to find all the
    freshly added tracks manually from the All tracks-section if
    and when I want to add them to a nice playlist
    - The front camera has a really bad picture and video quality
    - The software in the phone still has many bugs
    - A fingerprint magnet & Cheap plastic materials
    - Price!
    - OH, the gaming features just suck

    Um, yes I can (BTW, nice that there are other N96 likers too, as I am also very surprised that there are so many haters )
    You can get Winamp Remote from here: http://www.winamp.com/player/free-download-full?lang=en-us When you install it, choose Winamp Remote as a part of the installation. You can get more help from the Winamp Forums. Winamp Remote should be easy to use, but if you need more help ask from the Winamp Forums or PM me (One of the main things is that you have to have ports forwarded fine, that is quite hard to explain but go to: www.portforward.com and follow their instructions meant just for your router, I am not sure that do they have instructions just meant for Winamp Remote but if you are lucky enough you just should be able to do the tricks in half an hour )
    DivXPlayer is available at here: http://labs.divx.com/system/files/private/DivXPlayer_S60_3rd_0.sisx AND PLEASE NOTE that DivxPlayer takes so much memory that it CANNOT PLAY FILES OVER 200MB. I tried a 150MB DivX .AVI video and it played very well but I tried a 350MB DivX .AVI video and it lagged like a hell. You can use Lonely Cat Games (LCG) SmartMovie to convert about 350MB file to a 80MB file with just fine enough quality. I know that talking about "illegal" things is forbidden in here but just a small tip: Find a good Mobile Phone stuff forum, they are giving some good and CR@CKED applications for free (normally they are asking huge prices for them) There are dozens of good mobile forums just waiting for somebody who needs all that stuff For example the SmartMovie will put the video's image grey after two minutes (if you have converted the video with that tool) of playing it. But just some little googling and you are fine to go But supporting software studios is also important, so if you just have enough money I really suggest that you buy all your softwares!

  • Capturing analog video

    I'm using a Formac Studio DV video capture device to import analog VHS tape into my I.Mac with iMovie 4.0.1. The picture comes in fine but there is a terrible loud staccato noise in playback that blocks out all sound on the tape. What is going on? I've been told that this doesn't happen if using earlier versions of iMovie or even Final Cut Pro. Does this make sense? John

    John:
    I had this identical problem with my Formac Studio TVR about 2 years ago. I sent the Formac to the California location, and I think they installed a new chip plus firmware. Now it works fine. Check out to see if you have these specs:
    Preferences: TV/FM Tuner, Firmware 1.0.7
    Operating software: Studio TVR 3.2.0
    Thanks,

  • How to put Blu Ray Dvds to Kindle Fire HD

    I’d like to transfer my Blu Ray Dvds to my Kindle Fire HD. However, while I have had no problems
    with the original disks, the files play fine on my device, but everything I converted has the same error message: “video cannot be played”. What is the problem?

    First of all, check the transferred file location, you need put them to Gallery app directory and your tablet can find them and play well; and remember Android systems compatible Memory cards have a limit of 4GB per file because of the FAT32 file system, including Kindle Fire HD. 720p and 1080p movies today can be up to 10GB, and that's definitely will not transfer to the MircroSd card. So you need re-encode and downsize the file;
    or if don’t wanna re-encode and lose video quality, use Pavtube Video Converter Ultimate to rip your disks again, but this time, use its Split feature. Don’t how-to? 
    Don’t worry, I find a guide page can help.

    I have tried this way and it is really usefully. 

  • Problems with sound in the FCP

    I have a mpg movie that was created in another software Studio 14. I transfer the file to my HD and it plays fine video and sound.
    I need to edit it and I imported it into a FCP project.
    The video is fine, but there is no sound at all.
    Any suggestions to solve the problem?

    MPEG files are typically multiplexed (muxed audio and video) and must be converted prior to importing into FCP. MPEG Streamclip can handle most of those tasks; use it to convert the MPEG file into a format that will exactly match your Sequence settings in FCP.

  • USB PCTV

    Hi everybody,
    I'm actually using a Pinnacle PCTV USB device to acquire video on my PC. I've installed the application, it works with the provided software (Studio PCTV USB), but I'd like to know wether it's possible to control the dll of the device drivers (see attached zip) so as to be able to do snap shot of the video in using a LabVIEW function.I also have ActiveX dlls but they are to heavy to attach (10M).
    I've already used IMAQ and a PCI 1411 to do this but as the equipment is not a NI product, I may have to do more effort to do the same, I've never used dll on LabVIEW and I don't know exactly which is the one to use.
    Another solution could be to use another USB video acquirement device to do this, in the same price range and maybe with all LabVIEW drivers provided,if someone heard about it...
    I hope you could help me. Thank you in advance.

    Hi,
    The only way I can help you with your dll is to send you the method to call dlls from Labview. I join a pdf that explains the use of externally code in labview.
    Besides, the link below can interest you... It talks about a free Imaq driver for USB cameras. This way should simplify your work.

  • OT: M-Audio releases new 10x10 FW Mixer

    From their web site:
    The NRV10™ is a new breed of gear that combines an 8 x 2 analog mixer and a 10 x 10 24-bit/96kHz digital audio interface in one convenient package—the perfect tool for computer-based recording and performance. Route and record mixer channels discretely to individual tracks in Pro Tools M-Powered, Ableton Live 6 and other software studios. You can also return multiple discrete audio channels from your computer to the NRV10 for CPU-free mixing and monitoring complete with on-board digital effects—great for live performances. And that means you don’t have to change settings like EQ and reverb in your files every time you play a new venue. Flexible monitoring options also make vocal/instrument recording and DJ-style audio previewing a breeze. And the included NRV10 interFX application allows you turn your NRV10 and host computer into a powerful live mixer with access to all of your VST effects. The NRV10 seamlessly integrates your computer with your studio—and bridges the gap between studio and stage as well.

  • MSI Z77A-G43 Realtek Audio Manager

    Hello,
    I just bought a MSI Z77-G43 motherboard and I did a clean installation of Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and when it started up the audio was already working which is normal. Then I installed the basic drivers (chipset,lan,audio).(Ok just so you know the situation)
    Now the volume changes on the new Realtek software are working, but the EQ presets, Graphic EQ, Environment settings, Voice Cancellation and Karaoke settings are not working. So basically the whole "Sound Effects" tab is not doing anything to the sound when being adjusted.
    What could the problem be here ? (And how do I add a picture to this message, I have a screen shot)

    Yes it's a shame that one cannot just use Realtek audio drivers but have to use the audio program too. I have tried to extract and install only the drivers but it always wants the software as well. And I haven't find those driver only from nowhere without the software studio.
    That's why I'm using MS drivers, luckily, those work perfect with my 5.1 set up.
    If anyone knows where to get just the audio driver without the software please post link here.

  • Bugs and issues

    Hi.
    I bought iPhoto on the first day it became available and I still experience two major bugs that totally get on my nerves and make photo editing with the app just too complicated to have fun with:
    1st: all photos are stretched to landscape. There doesnt seem to be a workaround instead of auto-enhancing them which I sometimes just don't wish to do. Snapseed handles all those photos very well, as does the native app.
    2nd: app crashes A LOT. All I need to do to crash it seems to be flicking through my images. It will freeze, not allowing any user input. If I then take it back to the home screen and restart the app it will crash again, to then be good to be restarted (and start everything from scratch..)
    This looks frighteningly much like some crappy no name software studio using its customers as beta testers...If there's any possibility to return the app to the store, get a refund and then rebuy it when finished I'd be very happy to do that.
    Regards,
    Marc

    1. All photos are stretched to landscape.
    This doesn't happen on my iPhoto for iOS on my iPad.
    2. App crashed a lot.
    This doesn't happen for me either.
    First thing to try is a reboot of your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.
    Then I would try deleting iPhoto for iOS and reinstalling it.
    If that didn't work I'd sync with my computer and remove all photo from my iPad. Then install iPhoto again. Finally load one small album of photos through the sync process and test again. Some users have experienced crashes and other problems in iPhoto for iOS that were actually caused by a corrup photo.
    Seems like I heard that Apple changed the app store policy to provide some refunds in certain situations. If this is tue youll need to contact the App Store ASAP to find out. I may be totally wrong here because previously once a purchase was made all sales were final. No refunds. No harm in asking though.
