No option to encode with Surcode 5.1 in h.264 codec?

My Premiere and AME are both updated to 4.0.1. I'm trying to encode with multi-channel to an Apple TV compliant h.264 (non-bluray) file. The audio encoding allows multi-channel AAC (which I believe may be unrecognizable by my receiver), but not an option for the Surcode AC3 codec. Surcode is available under h.264 blu-ray and MPEG-2 DVD, but is not an option under the normal h.264. How can I encode a multi-channel audio track for an Apple TV? (The blu-ray option does not allow me to pick my required resolution of 960x540 29.97 fps). And is this $300 plug-in my only multi-channel option?

i would just encode the files seperatly. Do an audio only encode for the Surcode, then export the Video H.264. Thats what I did and it worked great.
My problem was that the ac3 file was still only 2 channels....

  • No Sound Encoding with Windows media encoder

    Recently bought a dv8 with windows 7 
    I am trying to encode a wmv from a few video files. The video works fine but I get no sound.
    Im have been trying to find a combination of sound settings in the sounds manager>recordings tab. but nothing seems to work.
    Im am also using the hardware profile option for compression with video set to high and I have chosen various sound profiles.
    I just cant seem to get the audio to pass from the file into the encoder. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp58001-58500/sp58226.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete.  Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.

  • What is the simplest way to encode with xvid

    I have a collection of home videos.  I can import them from the camera as .avi files.  From there, I would like to encode them into mpeg4 videos, but I would like to use xvid - I heard it complied to the mpeg4 standards.  I have been reading a lot of forums, but there is nothing that says what the command line is or something simple.  I know several Arch users have used xvid.  Is it possible to encode with xvid from the command line?  If not, how can I do it?
    Oh, I have also installed xvidcore via pacman, but there doesn't seem to be an exvidenc like I thought there would be. 
    Thanks for any help

    I think mencoder is unbeatable, it's man page is quite lengthy but worth reading carefully as there's loads of good info there.
    Basically, you can do something like this:
    cat film.avi | mencoder -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr:br=64 -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=1000 -vf crop=720:544:24:16,pp=lb -o output.avi
    That's a really rough guide and may not work how you want it to - there's tons of switches and options you can apply if you want.

  • Re-Encoding with Old Encoder

    Is it possible to re-import a CD to the almost-latest iTunes (I stayed with 9.2), but have it encode with an older encoder?
    So with some CD's that had been imported long ago, but for whatever reason were re-encoded much more recently with a later encoder (like having it encoded at 8.0.2 rather than its original encoder of 7.2.3 for example)
    I know an option is to just download older versions of iTunes, but it's difficult to try and continue that process with downloading each next version of iTunes until arriving back at my current version.
    Anyone have any advice?

    You'd need the older itunes version installed.
    Just curious, why do you want to do this?

  • How do I access the data saved on my time capsule?  for example, if i try to view my photos it tells me that i have 2.4gb of photos and gives me the option to "view with iPhoto"....but when i click on "view with iPhoto" nothing happens...  thanks!

    how do i access the data stored on my time capsule?  for example, if i try to view a photo, i get the option to "view with iphoto" but when i click on "view with iphoto" nothing happens.  i'm having similar trouble openning up movies, music, etc.  it appears as though the files exist / saved on the time capsule (because i can see how much storage they consume), but i can't open them.  thanks!

    Unfortunately, Apple removed the feature to "browse backups" in Time Machine backups of iPhoto a few years ago.
    You have to restore the entire iPhoto library to a separate location to be able to "see" it, and then choose the specific images that you want use.

  • File encoded with x264 takes forever to load in Encore CS 5.5

    I use Encore mostly because it takes h.264 video encoded with the x264 compressor, which provides much higher quality than any other compressor. The problem is that these files take forever to load. For example, right now I'm trying to load a video that is about 1 hour and 20 minutes long, encoded at 38 Mbps, and the file is 20.9 GBytes. Now it's 3 PM and I imported this file along with the AC3 file over an hour ago. The Encore process shows as not responding, but when I open the Windows 7 Resource Monitor, in the disk tab it shows that it's reading the video file at a rate of about 45 MB/s, so I didn't kill the Encore process. I know eventually it's going to stop and load the file, but I don't understand why it takes so long. The encoding parameters that I used in x264 are these:
    x264 --level 4.1 --bluray-compat --preset slow --bitrate 38000 --keyint 30 --min-keyint 2 --open-gop --weightp 0 --slices 4 --vbv-bufsize 30000 --vbv-maxrate 40000 --rc-lookahead 40 --tff --output "output" "input"
    This comes from a family video that is 1080 59.94i. This time these two parameters appeared because I selected Blu-ray as the target:  --bluray-compat and --open-gop, which I don't normally use, but still, even when I don't use them, video encoded with x264 takes forever to load. Does anybody here know what could be the problem?

    What's weird is last year I encoded a file that was almost two hours long and Encore took it without trouble, although it was CS5, not 5.5. Since I had kept the avs and bat files, and also the x264.exe from that encode, I brought them into the current working folder and I just modified the file names in the avs and bat files to point to the new avi and encode to the new h264 file. So I encoded this file, I imported it into Encore, and it still hangs. Maybe it was a change from CS5 to 5.1 that introduced a problem. x264 has been certified to be Blu-ray compliant since over a year ago, and I already put this file to a Blu-ray with TSMuxer, since it was a family video and I didn't really need menus, and it plays perfectly fine in my Blu-ray player.
    But I'm sure there must be something, one or two parameters that would make it compatible. For example, after encoding the file again the last time, now I can import it into Encore, and it doesn't stay frozen forever, but it doesn't show me the video and as soon as I try to move the timeline cursor it freezes and doesn't let me do anything for several minutes. So still it's not usable. But it's a change from the first encode where the progress dialog would be there for several hours and do nothing at all.

    After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

    I followed all the instructions on the suggested page. Many files in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ and C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\ could not be deleted. Message said ""Cannot delete files: It is being used by another person or program"' but could not find iPodService.exe in task manager (also, the "Cannont delete ... " did not mention iPodService.exe).
    Deleted all that I could. Reinstalled iTunes. Still same result. iTunes and computer both recognize my old iPod. Only the computer recognizes iPod Touch.

  • Steps to UTF-8 Encoding with Oracle 8i and Weblogic 6.1SP1

    What are the Steps to UTF-8 Encoding with Oracle 8i and Weblogic
              6.1SP1?
              I have:
              - Oracle 8.1.5 database created with character set=UTF8 and national
              character set=UTF8
              - Weblogic 6.1SP1 without any encoding mechanism set
              (though I did play with
              <jsp-param><param-name>encoding</param-name>
              <param-value>UTF-8</param-value>
              </jsp-param>
              in the weblogic.xml for a while though it seemed not to make a
              difference)
              - JSP pages set to content='text/html; charset=UTF-8'
              - JSP form POSTs set to enctype="UTF-8"
              I can copy and paste Chinese Kanji from a UTF8 encoded web page into
              form text boxes but when I post the data it comes back as different
              Kanji. Then once it is posted the Kanji stays the same on repeated
              posts. The same Kanji text also looks different when viewed in a form
              text box than when viewed as straight text on the page.
              Is there anything else? Or am I already encoding characters twice?

  • F4v encoded with Adobe media encoder CS4 (longer than 71 minutes)

    Hi I don't know if this is the correct place for this post. So apologies me if this is the wrong place.
    Encoding with Adobe Media Encoder CS4 (4.2.0.006 and 4.0 too)
    Source: MOV (DVPAL) longer than 71 minutes
    Dest: F4V (H.264)
    Result: freezed frames and only plays audio at 01:11. Media Player goes crazy and starts showing some diferent parts freeze frames.
    In Quicktime crashes, in VLC the same of MediaPlayer. Sometimes the audio starts to downsampling and sounds like the pitch goes down.
    Totally agree with this other post: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/580391
    (extract)
    I recentlly encoded afew F4V using Adobe Media Encoder Cs4.  MOst of them are working properly but I don't know why, all of my video that are longer than 71 minutes seems to have trouble playing back.  They all Freeze when they reach 71 minutes or if I navigate pass this point.
    thanks and help us please!

    Thanks for the interest.
    I'll try to explain all details:
    MacPro 1.1 (mid 2006) under Mac OS X 10.4.11 (Darwin 8.11.1 kernel)
    System files: journaled HFS+ and a unix based NAS (under samba connection)
    I have all material on the NAS and also I make the transcoding over it. Is a simple mov containing DV PAL WIDE interlaced 25fps with stereo audio. typical settings with nothing out of DV PAL standard.
    The version of MediaEncoder CS4: 4.2.0.006 (it happens with older versions too)
    The settings of MediaEncoder are:
    Audio: AAC stereo 44,1 kHz
    Video: F4V. MainConcept H.264, fps like source, profile high, level 4,1. CBR compression.
    The problem only appears with videos longer than 71 minuts. At 01:11 starts with crazy problems. It seems like the player have some read or problems.
    Tell me if you need some other kind of information.

    Hi,
    Which operating system are you running on?
    Try starting the organizer while holding down the shift key.  Hopefully, it should load the Catalog Manager.
    Select your current catalog and click on the Repair button. Once it has finished, click on the Open button to see if the catalog opens.
    Good luck,

    The only known way to make it work on an external drive is by first installing Windows onto an internal drive, then cloning the install to an external Thunderbolt drive. Thunderbolt is seen as an extension of the internal bus, so Windows doesn't see it as an external device.

  • Quadrature encoder with a non-NI board

    I am attempting use an encoder with a non-NI board (Measurement Computing) and I am unsure how to interface the encoder output from the board with LabView. I have the VIs for the board which allow the board to interface with LabView,. I essentially need a VI to decode the quadrature, the ones in the tutorials were not very helpful or insightful.

    Hello Mystery,
    Take a look at the section “Velocity and Acceleration Calculations” in this devzone.  While the article itself applies to CompactRIO, the equations used in the above section can help you determine how to convert the counter output into a velocity measurement. 
    Does the counter value increase when you rotate the encoder in one direction and decrease when you rotate in the other direction?  This is essentially position measurement.  By knowing the number of ticks per revolution as well as the starting position of the encoder, you can determine the current rotation position.  For velocity, there is a little more to the measurement.  The concept relies on taking a counter measurement in a periodic manner.  Then you can use the number of encoder pulses that have occurred over that period of time to calculate velocity.  The document I linked about shows how to convert the number of encoder pulses over a fixed period of time into RPM which can be later converted into angular velocity.  Hope this helps.
