OT: What viewers do you need to use ALL audio and video files?

I had a lot of trouble with audio and video files on my PC. I
now have a
MacBook Pro, which is a big improvement. But I still
frequently
encounter files that I can't use. I try to open them, but
Apple doesn't
know what to do with them. For example, I often encounter
unusable
videos while perusing news websites. I also have some audio
files with
.mva or .mvw extensions that don't work.
So what viwers/players do I need to download in order to be
able to play
every audio/video file that comes my way? iTunes handles .mp3
files, and
I also have QuickTime installed. I just viewed another video
after I
installed a Flash plugin. What else do I need to install?
Thanks.

  • What computer do you recommend for music production, photo and video editing?

    I'm looking to buy a computer mainly for music production with native instruments and photo and video editing with adobe elements. I'd like a crisp image, good sound and also runs as smooth as possible. I am planning on using external hard drives for most  of my storage so space isn't an issue for me. I don't mind buying a refurbished computer. I am looking to spend around $3000 to $3500 on the computer itself. What computer do you recommend?

    Please do not double post; it gets too confusing for us - the volunteers - if there is more than one.
    the new iMac - just introduced - sounds like it'd be the right thing; I'd upgrade to an SSD and the fastest processor offered. You can also add RAM, but I'd do that later as it'll be less expensive and it's very easy to do yourself.
    Good luck.

  • How do you combine audio and video files?

    I've brought in a video file and an audio file, but can find no way to specify that they are a single source that should be compressed together.  The documentation was of no use.  How do you identify video and audio files as being one source?
    Thanks!

    Semantics, I suppose.  In any case, you do need to go through Premiere Pro if you want AME to do the job.  There are likely other encoders out there which can perform the muxing, though, if you'd rather not go through PP.

  • Using the audio et video file independantly

    Hi, sorry for this newbie question.
    I have imported a video clip with its audio file. I would like to be able to replace part of the video clip by some pictures, but without replacing the audio file. Yet, I seem to be unable to move or erase the beginning or the end of the video clip without moving or erasing the equivalent part of the audio clip.
    Yes, I have "extracted" the audio file so I can see it indépendantly. But the video and the audio files seem to stay linked. What I am missing?

    Hi paslap - welcome to the forum!
    What you want to do is called 'paste over at playhead', which is found in the Advanced Menu of imovie.
    Steps:
    1. Probably best to firstly import the photos into the Timeline somewhere - they can be removed later. Select them and copy them (Command-C).
    2. Position the playhead on the video clip where you want the first picture to start.
    3. Go Advanced Menu>Paste Ovr at Playhead.
    Now you can trash the photos you placed in the Timeline (placing them there was simply to copy them as one block, making the pasting-over more simple).
    This will do the task of extracting the audio where necessary, so if you have already done this, best to undo that.

  • Need full resolution HDMI audio and 2 CH optical simultaneously

    Am working on an install for a customer who has a Mac Mini.  He is running XBMC for all his movies.  I need to run HDMI to his surround processor with full resolution audio while running the optical out in 2 channel pcm for his whole house audio.  Is this possible?

    As standard sound would go to one or the other output, it is possible to configure things to send sound to both at the same time, but I would strongly expect this would require both to be configured the same i.e. stereo, rather than one being stereo and the other 5.1.
    To configure the Mac to send to both you need to use the Audio MIDI Setup tool in the Utilities folder.
    See https://support.apple.com/kb/PH5178?locale=en_US
    and How to combine multiple audio interfaces by creating an aggregate device - Apple Support
    It maybe that the easiest or more practical option would be to use an AV Receiver set to output via both its stereo and HDMI ports. The Mac would then just send via HDMI to the AV Receiver which would if needed handle the conversion and splitting of the signal.

    What model do you need to be able to use a charge scanner when their is no wi-fi available

    Ohh, you mean credit card scanner?
    That would be up to whicher scanner you choose.  The manufacturer would determine which iPad or iPhone versions or IOS versions their device supports.
    The Square scanner from the Apple Online store only needs iOS 5. So pretty much any model of iPad should support it.
    System Requirements
    iOS 5.0 or later

  • What  type of plug in do I need to use between weblogic and tomcat please

    Hi,
    Can anybody please tell me what type of plugin do I need to install to communicate between Tomcat4.0 and weblogic6.1 sp2.actually I wanted to use a connection pool from my servlet on my local tomact where connection pool is created on remote weblogic server.........?
    I have no idea what to do. I tried including the weblogic.jar in my local classpath where my tomcat is sitting. This didnot work . I got the following error......
    I want to know is it possible.............?
    javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Cannot instantiate class: weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory [Root exception is java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory]
    Your response is very inportant......
    Thnaks

    Thanks a lot for your rely....
    then how could I use the remote connection pool in my
    local Tomcat server.....?If thats is not possible then
    what if organisation have two webservers...? you mean
    thay have to create connection pool in two servers
    rather on one server and use it every where.....?
    Still depends on what you are trying to achieve.
    Most clustered systesm use a connections on each server. They sync the data retrieved between servers, not the connections themselves.
    If you simply one a single connection point then you need to use a driver that proxies requests to and from the real connection point.
    RmiJdbc is free at http://www.objectweb.org/.
    There are commercial drivers available, search at http://industry.java.sun.com/products/jdbc/drivers, which provide an enterprise layer for database access. They are probably more robust and feature rich than the above one.

    what cable do i need to use to connect my grandson's old style external isight webcam to his 2014 Mac mini in order for him to be able to FaceTime me

    You need either a FireWire 800 to FW 400 cable or a FR 800 (male)/FW(female) adopter.
    However. it the Mini (note that you still have the late 2012 Mini, Apple has not updated the Mini since then) has Mavericks it may not work satisfactorily. I tried it on my 2102 and I get abount 1 frame every 20 seconds. Another uses posted same problem.

  • Can you manually add data to Nike + or do you need to use the Nano?

    Can you manually add data to Nike + or do you need to use the Nano?
    What if you are on a trip and forgot your Ipod. It would be great to be able to add lost data. or even edit the Ipod data on the Nike + website

    Hi Hrbrmstr,
    That will be very cool if you can create an xml file
    that will allow us to add runs and edit runs on the
    Nike+ site! The trick may be getting past the server
    dragon which sends out a warning saying, "Your
    workout data could not be sent to nikeplus.com
    because the data could not be accepted by the server"
    when it does not like the data it is sent.
    For example, my runs that did not post had something
    in common: when I read these xml files with TextEdit,
    both have a line that says,
    "<stepCounts><walkBegin>0</walkBegin>". There's also
    a line that tracks steps run. It also said zero. Of
    course, these lines should NOT read zero, because I
    was not starting at zero steps! My guess is that this
    anomaly makes the Nike+ server either reject or
    delete these runs because the step count does not fit
    my other runs.
    Well, I'll leave this stuff to someone who knows more
    than I. Glad you're here.
    For jackt123, the longer is answer to your question
    is that certain things that are not doable now may be
    doable in the future. Stay tuned.
    I just got the dragon today. "Your workout data could not be sent to Nikeplus because iTunes received an unexpected response from the server. Please try again later." Did you ever find out why this happened to you? I went on nikeplus and it did in fact upload my latest run. Now my goals are blank on nikeplus.
