Output from DVD player as input to GB?

Is there a way to take the output of the DVD player as the input to Garage Band on one computer?
I can do this now using two computers hooked together (output of one feeds input of another).
I want to eliminate noise incurred on the line between the computers.
Thanks.

no. you'd have to use software like iRecord, Audio Hijack, or WireTap

Can't record sound from DVD player

I just built a new DAW with a Gigabyte MoBo that has the Realtek sound chip on board. I installed an M-Audio external Fast Track Pro connected to the computer with USB 2.0. With the two sound devices I can play Band in a Box (my main band) through the Realtek and out put to my mixer. I then use my Line 6 Pod XT as a preamp to my guitar that also goes to my Behringer mixer. I connect the main out (R&L) from the mixer to the 1 and 2 inputs on the M-audio. I set Audio Hardware setup in AA3 to use the M Audio device for input and am able to record mixer output to tracks in AA3. I tried several configs and this is the only one that I found that works. All is good so far.
I installed a SATA DVD player (Lite on 24x) that works fine, but it plays through the M-Audio via USB, bypassing the Realtek chip, and the sound does not show up in AA3. I'm thinking I need to route the DVD output to the mixer to use the channel that is already set up. I've been trying to output the DVD player through the onboard Realtek but can't find any way to direct it to do so. I don't necessarily need it to play through the Realtek, but I want to be able to record from the DVD player.
So, does anyone have any idea how to direct the output of the DVD player to the sound card of choice? I'm stumped.

Eric,
Thanks for your reply. Realtek audio works only in playback. There is a stereo mix in the mixer but the recording controls are not operable with no sliders in the mixer for any recording option. Slider controls appear to be grayed out. Can't figure out how to enable them. Downloaded newest drivers to no avail.
The M Audio control panel has no apparent option for recording stereo mix. Adobe ignores the sound from the DVD or CD and shows flatline.
I'm trying to record the sound from the DVD not rip the track.
When I go to Audio Driver Setup and select Audition 3.0 windows sound, there is no input device installed.
I'm thinking of going back to a decent internal Soundblaster card like I have on my 8 year old machine I am replacing.

How do I get good audio feed from DVD player to my MBP using an optic cable

I have successfully recorded audio off of concert DVD's using Sound Studio 3 by connecting my DVD player to my MBP using left/right outputs to a 35mm input. I purchased an optical cable, connected it to my DVD player and used a 35mm adapter to connnect it to my MBP input. All I get is a weird popping interferance type sound instead of clear audio. Any tips on what is going on? I have correct settings in system preferences (recognizes an optical connection) but all I hear is noise?
Thanks for any help!

I just use mac the ripper with the following instructions
http://www.ripdifferent.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=1249&sid=de5cc9506c05b6ba98d6 530884489333
It gives you a few options for audio, I generally save as AAC though you can rip as AIFF and then encode into just about anything with quicktime.

No Sound From DVD Player

I received my new (refurb.) 15" PB today. Everything works great except I can get no sound from Apples DVD player. CDs, iTunes, system sounds etc. all work correctly. Audo output is set to System Sound Output in DVD Preferences. Using VLC I get DVD sound but lots of dropped frame errors. Any suggestions?

I'm having the same problem. I can play the video part of a DVD but no sound. Audio CDs and Windows sounds work fine. Does this mean I'm missing a DVD codec or is there a software setting I'm missing. The Nvidia codec costs money. Is there a free codec that will fix this? This is with Windows XP and Audigy 2 LS.

Output from DVD Studio Pro plays on computer but not on TV DVD?

When I output a DVD from DVD Pro (16:9) it plays fine on the computer (and other computers) but not on a conventional DVD player. What am I doing wrong?

I don't want to take over this thread, but figured why start another when I am having this exact same issue. I create my project, everything is good, I simulate it and everything is good, I burn it to disc and play it on the computer and everything is good, try it in a conventional player and it says it's unreadable and kicks it out. I've tried it in Two different players that both have been able to play movies created in iDVD just fine.
I browsed my disc I created and it didn't have the standard files (VOB etc) so I thought maybe I mistakenly burned it in HD, checked the encoder settings adn they were set to HD. Fixed that so it was 16:9 SD, burned another and same exact result. Do I need to create a whole new project so it will encode the whole thing in SD? I did do a new movie track and it should have encoded it at SD but I think everything else (Menus, Slideshow, etc) are all in HD still (maybe???). Any suggestions or help are greatly appreciated.

5.1 sourround sound output from QuickTime Player

Hello all, first time in the QuickTime forum (and I think I already answered an iBook question!). I have a 1.4GHz G4 Mac mini with an m-audio Sonica USB to get digital optical audio and 5.1 audio out of my computer to my stereo. This combination works great with Apple's DVD Player and the VLC Media Player and I get surround sound out of my DVDs and video files. However, QuickTime files, like the HD movie trailers, which say they have more audio tracks (and they're enabled), only play through the right & left front speakers. For Apple's DVD Player, I had to select the m-audio device as the digital audio output device. However, I can't seem to find an option like that in my QuickTime Player. I have Mac OS X 10.4.5 and QuickTime 7.0.4 (Pro). Is there something I'm missing to get all the tracks to play directly from the QuickTime Player?
-Doug

There's a little bit of confusion going on here I think..
Okay, let me clear this up for you all!
Quicktime uses AAC 5.1 as it's 'surround' format. Most 5.1 (Optical) Speaker systems have a decoder which will only be able to decode Dolby Digital or DTS. AAC is a different format to these two, so.. the speakers end up having to just decode in to 2 speakers.
The solution would be either, in my case, a usb/firewire 'soundcard' which has 6 channel output direct for my Logitech Z-5500. Then the OS would know that the soundcard can handle 6 specific channels and you'd be able to select this in Midi Setup. Then Quicktime would happily decode AAC 'locally' on the mac and play each channel through the soundcard.

Is it possible to export a video clip from DVD player to iMovie '09?

If I load a homemade DVD onto my iMac using Disk Utility and then import either the entire disc or portions of the disc into iMovie, that works just fine. However I noticed that some clips are missing in iMovie, even though they are on the iMac in form of a .dmg file on the desktop. The same file that was used to import in to iMovie. If I look at this file using DVD player, everything is there, but some of these clips are missing in the event window. So I created a video clip in DVD player of those pieces missing in iMovie and now how can I get these into iMovie?

Hey, best way to import video from a DVD video disc for editing is to acctually have a simple video file. Use Handbrake or MPEG StreamClip to read the disc and create a video file off the video stream.
You could also set in and out points anc manually create several clips, which may help with playback and rendering for editing. I don't know how extensive you're going to get in your editing with iMovie...
Hope that helped.

Could i play sound from DVD Player to my stereo?

I have iBook with Airpot Extreme card. I want to buy Express station. Is there is somebody who did try to broadcast sound to express station from something different than iTunes? May it is just impossible?

Before you buy one for this purpose, you must realize that you're liable to be frustrated trying to get the audio to sync with the video. In fact, you'll have to use an app other than Apple's DVD Player in order to get the sync halfway close, and even then you'll likely never get it perfect.
VLC is one possibility. You'll need to use the audio delay option with a negative offset to advance the audio ahead of the video a couple of seconds to compensate for the Airport Express prebuffering delay.

Output for dvd player

I don't use Premiere Pro very often so I would like to ask a question to avoid any problems.
I work with Maya and I need to create a regular DVD in order to be played in a DVD player as opposed to a PC. What settings do I need to be mindful of to avoid any technical issues such as failure to play back?
I did try to review some of the postings on the forum but I was unable to open the actual discussion so this is why I'm posting my question now.
Any suggestions will be very much appreciated.
Thank you.

hello,
Encore comes with adobe creative suite up til cs6
if you are using the cloud you have to download/install separately
once Encore is installed you can 'author' a dvd like Jeff said
you need to export from PPRO using the mpeg2-dvd setting
otherwise your files will be transcoded in Encore before burning to dvd
ALSO: most people will download/install 'imageburn' software and use it to actually burn the dvd to disc
(from Encore you will choose to build ISO file from the 'build' menu; then load up the iso into 'imageburn' and go at it)
hope this helps
cheers, j

Firewire DV video output for DVD player?

Hi everyone,
I am just wondering, does anyone know of any way to get the DVD player program to output NTSC DV via firewire like FCP allows for external monitors?
I would love a way to test my dvds without having to waste so many discs... Any suggestions?
-patrick

What is outputting DVD Player's signal to external monitor going to achieve?
The failure of DVDs burned is due either to the media used (the quality of DVD), the bit-rate settings used or more generally, the DVDSP workflow (you are burning via DVDSP and/or Compressor aren't you?) or the DVD player that the discs are being played on. (Different models cope with different variables, bit rates , brand of DVD used, how old the player is, whether the lens has been cleaned last - if at all...)
If it's a DVD burning issue, describe your workflow and post in the the relevant forum.
P.S. If I've misunderstood the question, please ignore the above...

Hi,
Sorry, it's unclear what you want to do.
Whenever you have a problem, it helps to be as specific as you can.
Post a little sampel data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements) and the results you want from that data. Since your problem involves parameters, give a couple of sets of parameters, and the results you want for each set, given the same data.
Are you saying that, after the user enters one set of parameters, you will need to run a variation of this query:
SELECT a.assembly_item_id, a.organization_id, a.bill_sequence_id, b.bom_item_type, b.bill_sequence_id, b.component_item_id
FROM    bom_structures_b a, bom_components_b b
WHERE   a.assembly_item_id = '303'
AND
        a.organization_id = '207'
AND
        b.bill_sequence_id = a.bill_sequence_id
AND
        b.bom_item_type = '4';several times? What will be different each time? Will the hard-coded strings in the WHERE clause ('303', '207' and '4') be values from the earlier query?
Do you really want to run this query several times, or would you rather run one query, and have it produce results for all the relevant values? (That would probably be eaisest and less error-prone). When you post your desired results, post what you would most like to see. If something else is acceptable, describe it.
You can write SQL*Plus scripts to use parameters (substitution variables.
For example, you can write a query that says:
WHERE   a.assembly_item_id     = '&1'
AND     a.organization_id      = '&2'
AND     b.bill_sequence_id      = a.bill_sequence_id
AND     b.bom_item_type      = '&3';and call it like this
@Section_03A_bom_structures_b 303 207 4You can have a query output several such rows (for example:
@Section_03A_bom_structures_b 303 207 4
@Section_03A_bom_structures_b 304 298 3
@Section_03A_bom_structures_b 306 99   4), send all of that output to a SPOOL file, and then execute the SPOOL file.

Screen Captures from DVD Player?

I'm using the Apple DVD v3.2, and am wondering if it's possible to catch screen captures (to use for my desk top)....from movies.
I just read the Quicktime question for screen captures, but that didn't work for the DVD player.
Thanks,

No Audio from DVD Player

Mac Pro
OS X 10.4.8 - QuickTime 7.1.3 -
Having a strange problem when trying to play DVD's.
DVD Player plays the images but I get no audio.
I've fiddled with the DVD's language options and
the DVD player controls but still nothing.
So far I've had this problem with all twelve DVD's I experimented with.
CD's, QuickTime, MP3, etc. files play fine - no problems so the problem seems to be DVD Player.
Thanks

I am having the same problem with my G5. It just started today. The most recent update I have done was yesterday to the latest version of iTunes. I have also updated my Powerbook but it hasn't seemed to have affected it yet. I have tried playing DVD's in the VLC media player and at first I get no audio as well but if I change the audio setting from "built-in (encoded)" to just "built-in" it pays back the audio fine. Any ideas?

Doing grabs from dvd player

I've only just started learning how to use the Grab function.
Is it possible to do a grab from a movie I am playing on the dvd player?
A salesman at the local Apple store told me it's doable,
but when I tried just now, a window popped up
and said that 'Screen grabs are unavailable during DVD playback,'
and to 'Quit DVD player first.'

Hi Eustaquio Villafranca,
As far as I know it is not possible and you will need to use a third party app to accomplish it. Have a look at this topic with its accompaning link for a list of applications that are compatible with your OS.

Title safe different from dvd player to computer DVD player

I have a title problem where I have a screen divided into three sections. I have a title on the top right that needs to be centered in own space . I have marked where a set top dvd player cuts the video off, a little more than action safe. I centered the text based on that. Problem is if someone plays the dvd on a computer dvd player nothing gets cut off and the title looks off center. Any ideas?

No, you've marked where the display you used cut the video off.
