OSMF stops streaming audio podcast prematurely when the first chapter ends

Hi, im having problems playing an audio mp3 which has chapters in it, OSMF closes the streaming and dispatched that has completed playing without the possibility to continue playing...
any ideas on this? thanks!

Why did Apple in their wisdom(??) decide to change this function (it used to work just fine)?
Why would they think that people want to be reverted back to the main menu and not hear the next Podcast??
Do they consider having to try and navigate back while your driving a leap forward?
Why would you turn around and make this hard to use??
And having to make a Smart Playlist is stupid...it makes the Podcast Category on iTunes useless and redundant.
I had the opinion that Apple was better than Micro$oft, that's why I made the leap but now I don't know...
99% of users want the function (to play Podcasts automatically and last episode first) back....what are they basing their decisions on certainly not us the users.
Does Apple EVER respond to these forums???

Streaming audio podcast randomly unpauses when paused

Often when I listen to streaming audio podcasts on iTunes, if I have to pause it for any reason, it will unpause itself after a few seconds and resume playing. This can be irritating, because usually when I'm pausing it's because I need to step away, which means the heaphones come off. Then I will return and the podcast is already playing. If I don't mark the time when I pause it, I could lose several minutes.
I have been pausing the stream lately just to watch iTunes's behavior. Sometimes, sure enough, I'll see it automatically resume playback with no accidental button pushing or screen tapping.
Can anyone explain why it does this? It should always remain paused until I unpause it. Every time.

I see a similar problem with music loaded into the iPod software on my iPhone 3G. In this case, when I remove the headphones from the headphone jack (ie. not Bluetooth), the iPod software will suddenly kick in and begin playing the last music I was listening to. Note, this music in the iPod software is paused and still lists as "Now Playing" because there does not appear to be a way to tell the iPod software that you are done listening to that music.
This is a basic flaw with the iPhone software. It seems you cannot tell any software to "Exit" because you are done -- you can only hit the "Home" button and leave the software in background. This can be a plus in some circumstances in that the software will start up again much faster, but it can also be a negative in that the running software is vulnerable to doing unexpected things.

I copied several MOV files to a CD. When I play them from the CD the video is fine but the audio works fine for the first few seconds then stops (using Qicktime Player 7.7.1. Everything works fine if I use VLC Media Player. Does anyone have any idea why?

My purpose for copying to a CD or DVD is so that I can make copies and send to friends and relatives. What is the best way to get these files on a CD/DVD with the right codecs?
The easiest thing to do is to simply tell your friends and relatives to copy the files to their local hard drive before playing them. Your basic problem is that data discs have a limited real time transfer rate. Since you say VLC plays the files fine, I might suspect its player is likely buffering the data while the QT 7 Player is not.
Data discs made for playback directly from the CD or DVD are normally encoded using MPEG-4/AVC (H.264) video with AAC audio. This is a modern codec which has specific settings to re-package the data (i.e., must be encoded using the multipass option and then select the "optimize for CD/DVD" option).

Shuffle 2 stopped playing audio podcasts

Hi. I have a Shuffle 2nd generation that just stopped playing audio podcasts. I've been listening to music and OTR and CBC Radio podcasts, and all of a sudden it stopped playing the podcasts. Music plays fine, but if I just load it with podcasts, and try to play them, my little light just blinks (saying "you don't have anything loaded!"). It still plays the music, but skips over each podcast.
The podcasts are good. I used to play the exact same ones a month or two ago - then it just stopped playing them. I can listen to the podcasts on Itunes, and can listen to them on my old Shuffle 1st generation.
Help!

ooh, I did a bit more research and found a solution for my problem.
iPod shuffle won't play podcasts if its in shuffle mode. You have to switch it to linear mode.
I did that and now it plays just fine. Hopefully that's all that was wrong with yours as well.
I must have accidentally switched mine by accident and not realized it.

Time Machine - using multiple drives when the first is not available

Hello I have been succussfully using Time Machine with my USB external drive. I have been connecting it to my MacBook Air from time to time. Manual backups as well as the hourly backups when the drive has been connected worked without any problem.
Recently, I connected Synology DiskStation (NAS) to my network and I have added it to the list of drives in my Time Machine setup. When my original external drive (first in the list) is not connected to my MacBook the hourly backup is not initiated by the Time Machine at all. Manually started backup is runnign fine without any problem.
The external drive is annotated with exclamation mark in Time Machines list with "not available" error - and it seems that this is causing the interruption of automatic hourly backup to any drive.
Is there any way how to debug Time Machine? Or to get some logs of Time Machine?
Any similar experience with multiple drive backup when the first of them is disconnected most of the time...?
Thanks a lot for any help
Petr

Perhaps you should address this to Synology's tech support. Apple doesn't provide any support for third-party NAS, so your best bet is with Synology.

My iTunes Match automatically charged me for a second year when the first year finished. In spite of that, I have lost all of my playlists on my iPhone. How can I get them back?

My iTunes Match automatically charged me for a second year when the first year finished. In spite of that, I have lost all of my playlists on my iPhone. How can I get them back?

Hi,
No need to post three times!
Is iTunes Match still turned on on your iPhone? If not, you need to turn it back on.
If it is still on, go to settings, music app and turn off match- sign out of iTunes Store. Reboot iPhone, sign back into iTunes and turn on match. Poem music app. Does this help?

What happens when the CC trial ends? What happens when offline?

I need Lightroom to work offline on my laptop. What happens if I need to sign in to CC when there is no interned connection and what happens when the CC trial ends on both my laptop and desktop?

Thanks for answering. I have the standalone version of Lightroom 6 on my Windows 7 64 bit desktop. A number of times when have tried to open the program, the Adobe Application Manager has popped up requiring me to sign in even though I had not knowingly signed out. Lightroom will not launch unless I am signed in. Frequently when Lightroom launches, I see a "Server Busy" message telling me to "switch to the other program" without telling me which program to switch to. I have pinned the AAM to my notification area and have unchecked the "Show OS Notifications box" to see if the "Server Busy" message goes away. So far everything seems to be okay
Again, thanks for answering me

Hi,
Go to the database view V_OP and check for the column 'STATUS' which gives the background job status , based on value from this column (cancelled status ) , start the new job with FM : 'JOB_START' .

Why does the album artwork appear only when the first song is playing only?

Why does the album artwork appear only when the first song is playing only?

Hello ckuan. Thx for your reply.
The songs are not from iTunes, they are from CDs that I had copied to my itunes library.
It is worth mentioning that I wasn't facing this issue before IOS 5.

How can I utilize text variable in my book which only uses data merge on the first chapter?

Hey ladies and gents, I'm trying to automate a process here and running into trouble. I have the first chapter of a book with several data merge fields (legal documents etc), and want the later chapters to pick up from what I have already merged via text variables or SOMETHING. From what I've tried, the options available to me are limited and buggy.
Using the running header with character styles almost worked, but it removes all visual tracking in text around it (I assume this is a bug) and it only works for the first/last instance of the style. I need something that will fill in all instances.
Here is an example of what I'm doing. In the ch1 document of my book I data merge the Name, Age and Occupation of a person. In chapter two I want to have a variable that takes the name that was merged in ch1. Any ideas? Doesn't seem possible!

I need some solution that references live text, specifically different fields that have been data merged. This solution needs to work between documents, so your cross-reference suggestion was in the right direction. If I data merge 'Plan Name' from a CSV file into my first document and mark it with something (character style, paragraph style, text anchor etc), I want to have places in my other documents that pull that exact text from the first.
If document 1 says 'the plan is XXXX', document 2 will copy that name, i.e. 'According to plan XXXX'. Whatever solution this is it's what I'm looking for.

Menu only recognizes the first chapter - others default to it...

Hello all,
I am using the wedding-looking theme where boxes that hold images slide in from the right and simulated snow/flakes fall. Project is from FCE and pressing any chapter on either menu plays the movie from the firs chapter not where it should play from. It only recognizes the first chapter not the others.
I have never seen this one before - a new feature of iDVD
Any suggestions ?
thanks,
Al

+a new feature of iDVD+
No, but it is a bug. If you make ANY edits to your movie, no matter how small, after putting it into your iDVD project, iDVD will not play the chapters properly. You cannot determine this beforehand. iDVD appears to recognize that you have made edits and will give you a message that 'assets have changed' and will ask if yo want to update. Of course, you opt for that, and all appears fine until you either preview the movie in iDVD or burn it to a disk and see that the chapters do not play correctly.
The usual problem is just what you describe: the chapter(scene) selections default to the same one, usually the one closest to your edit, but not always. This problem occurs in a movie with chapters; I think it is not a problem in a movie without chapters. Additionally, I have made an edit in one of the last clips of my movie, and that has been made without the chapter problem.
There is no 'fix' for this problem/bug. You must start over and create a new iDVD project. Then, be certain that your movie is completely edited. Once you put it in iDVD, do NOT make any changes to it at all. It should burn fine this time.
Please post back if this explanation does not address your problem.

[Pulseaudio] Pop sound when the first stream starts, auto-suspend?

Hi,
I've been having a popping sound issues whenever a Pulseaudio sink was opened. At first I thought it had a link with the power saving settings of snd_hda_intel, so I changed those two settings:
power_save setting = 0
power_save_controller = N
Sadly, it doesn't change anything.
I also tried to disable auto-mute in alsamixer. It didn't work.
Then, I tried to investigate on pulseaudio's side, and figured the sinks are disabled when they are idle, so I commented out this statement in /etc/pulse/default.pa:
### Automatically suspend sinks/sources that become idle for too long
#load-module module-suspend-on-idle
However, if I do that, the device will still be suspended when the last stream ends, but won't come back to life except if I select the device again in pavucontrol while a sound stream is running (super weird).
Any leads? I'm a bit desperate...
EDIT: I'm experiencing what's been described here: Red Hat - Bug #520403 - but the solution they proposed does not work for me. I also followed the guide for ALSA Setup on the wiki, and read the section talking about Popping Noises, but nothing works for me, I un-muted the Line-In too. FYI, my audio codec is a Realtek ALC892.
EDIT 2: Noticed it does the same thing when I mute the volume.
Thanks!
Gabriel

Right, an array of unsigned integers to be exact. You would have to look at the code, either in your sources or here and here. They may have changed somewhat, but I doubt any drastic changes. First link is to linux 3.14 version. At least I assume it gets passed on directly, if that really is the case, I do not know. Just try it, hardware damage risk is minimal.
Looking at the mask, I think it takes up to 31 samples. So try with 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 24. I may be very well wrong about this.
Since I already have 0 and 1 in the 'trial matrix' I'll add 24 only. Adding the combinations with 2, 4, 8, 16, 24 is too much for me

On most keyboard layouts (also on the Polish programmer one) hyphen is one key one keystroke, where underscore is two key one keystroke, therefore more error prone and less efficient.
Wow, I didn't know that! What do you know! Linux being bitchy even about capital letters made me think it would be even more bitchy about '_' vs '-'.
