Problem burning song mix with start/stop times

I'm trying to create a mix, and two of the songs in the mix are set to use only a small portion of each song. I've changed the gap to none and set all songs to gapless...but when I burn the disc, these two songs are burning with 6 seconds, as opposed to the 3.01 and .5 seconds I set in my playlist. Thoughts?

I tried that, but it didn't take of the issue. The two songs I'm having problems with were in an unprotected format, but even after converting, it's still burning :06 seconds. It's really not burning the additional time of the songs...it's burning blank air. So when I playback the CD, I only hear the portion of the song I'm looking for, but there is dead space between the songs, even though I have gapless selected on each song.

How do I tell what songs have altered Start/Stop times (Under "Get Info-Options") without opening every single song.

Sometimes, for whatever reason, I'll change the Start/Stop times of my songs, and I'll forget which ones I've done this to. For me, this can be a hassle, due to the number of songs I have, and the actual amount I listen to my iPod. I'll admit that it's my fault, that when I'm making a ringtone or simply shortening a song temporarily, I'll almost definitely forget to change that shortened time back after I'm done. But that moment when you're listening to a song and it abruptly ends, especially in a place I don't have access to iTunes (and in that situation I usually forget before I get home, exacerbating the problem even further), it can be the most annoying thing ever for me. I don't want to deal with it any longer, though, so here's my question:
How can I view which songs have altered Start/Stop times, without needing to view the Info for each individual song? I can't select all songs and then select "Get Info", because if I do that it won't even show the Option. The only reason I'm here is because I tried to figure it out myself, for weeks on end, and have returned no valid options for solution. So can someone please help me?

Customize the Finder window toolbar, adding the Path icon to it. Select an item and click on the Path icon or, as you already know, add path to the window. There's also copypath.app available via the App Store.

Burn MP3 disk with correct stop time

I am trying to burn an MP3 disk with specific start and stop times. I can listen to it just fine on my computer, but the burn to MP3 options does not recognize the specific start/stop times. Any ideas?
Windows XP
Windows XP

iTunes > Preferences > Advanced > Importing > change "Import using" to mp3 encoder, and if required change the bitrate etc, in the "Setting" menu.
Now, in the main library window, select and ctrl-click on the track(s) you want to convert and you will see a "Covert selection to mp3" option.
The "Convert selection to ...." option will change depending on what format you have selected to import files as.
A warning though: AAC files converted to mp3s probably won't sound very nice!

Music Start/Stop Times with iTunes Match causes iOS Music App to glitch

I set Start Time and Stop Time values for my music in iTunes to crop off non-music parts of tracks, but the Start/Stop Times cause the iOS Music app to glitch out when the track streams via iTunes Match. If a track has a Start Time set, the track will get stuck, and repeat the first fraction of a second of the track over and over, seemingly for the amount of the Start Time. And if the Stop Time is set, the NEXT track will glitch out. For example, if a track has a Start Time of 0:10, the track will glitch out for at least 10 seconds before the track actually starts playing. Sometimes the track never stops advances beyond 0:00.
I think the problem caused by the fact that iTunes Match is streaming the entire track so the Music app just freaks out for the duration of the Start/Stop Times.
Has anybody else experienced this? Is there a workaround?
For now, I've just been searching my 22,000 song library for tracks with Start/Stop Times and exporting new hard-cropped files, but this is tedious, takes up hard drive space, and degrades the audio with lossy-to-lossy double-compression.

I'm having the exact same problem and from my research I believe that the old process of being able to turn ITM off, sync your music to your iPad, and then turn ITM back on no longer work. You are correct that going through this process wipes out your music. It's only on IOS 6.0 on my Gen 3 ipad because on my gen 1 iPad, I can't upgrade to IOS 6.0 and the old process still works fine under IOS 5.0.
In order to get around this I created a massive playlist (a superset of all my other playists) that I downloaded by using the download button in order to get local copies of my music on my ipad 3.0.
It seems to be working for now but I can't force my ipad to keep all that music local anymore. If I download other music or movies in the future (and become low on space) Apple makes the decision about what to remove from my local copy in order to fit the new content on the device.

Separate Start/Stop times for a single song file

I am trying to create some playlists for different moods e.g. calm, happy, upbeat etc.
Now, my problem is this. I have some songs that have more than one mood within them, and I would like to set different start/stop times for the one song file.
I would like to be able to set different start/stop times in each playlist and not affect the start/stop times for the file in the music library.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!

The only way to do this is to make a duplicate copy of the song for your playlist and adjust the times for the duplicate.

How do I change the start/stop time for multiple songs not just one song at a time?

How do I chnage the start/stop time for multiple songs not just one song at a time?

I don't think you can in iTunes.
Multiple editing in Get Info does not offer an option to change start/stop times.

Way to Erase All Start/Stop Time Data?

I used a DJ plugin called BPMer to load the BPMs into all my MP3s. It had an option "Optimize Start and Stop Times." This helps the program skip ambient intros of songs in order to beatmatch, mix and crossfade more efficiently. The only problem is that the information is retained under Get Info:Options:Start/Stop Times even if the plugin is turned off. It is stored in the ID3 info. I am wondering how to universally delete this information or reset it to default because I do not feel like going to every song individually to reset it (I'd have to do it about 6000 times). I tried selecting multiple songs, but the Start/Stop does not show up under Options when multiple tracks are selected.
Also don't suggest to re-run the BPMer program with the box unchecked for optimize start/stop times. I tried it. I figured out how to make BPMer not edit the times in the future, but it won't erase or overwrite the old start/stop info on tracks I already used it on.
Sort of a weird problem, but any ideas to save me from the nightmare of doing this individually 6000 times are greatly appreciated.

Doug Adams has a script over at his great site that should help with what you're trying to do.

How to Get Duration, Start/Stop Time of Each Instance (Run)

Can someone tell me how to get the Duration, as well as Execution Start/Stop times for a given run (Instance) of a Report, stored in History?
For example, on the BO Server in InfoView, I can browse the History of each report, and for each run, I can click the details and view the Duration and Start/Stop times for that run. How do I get that information in Java via the SDK?
Neither IProcessInfo nor ISchedulingInfo seems to have this information.
For example, ISchedulingInfo's Start/Stop Times are for general scheduling (when the report will stop being scheduled). That is not what I want.
I need specific data for a given completed Run, namely its duration and time endpoints. Thanks a lot.

Hi,
fetch the instance of the run like this
IInfoObjects list = infoStore.query(
"select SI_STARTTIME , SI_ENDTIME From CI_INFOOBJECTS Where SI_ID=<instanceIDtoMeasure>"
IInfoObject element = list.get(0);
Date startTime = element.properties().getDate("SI_STARTTIME");
System.out.println("Beginn "+ startTime);
Date endTime = element.properties().getDate("SI_ENDTIME" );
System.out.println("End " + endTime);
long time = ((endTime.getTime() - startTime.getTime()) / 1000);
System.out..println("Runtime " + time + " sec");
You can get the nstanceIDtoMeasure form your Report with getInstances
Enjoy

Manually specifying start/stop times for video

When we insert a video into a Keynote presentation, we can adjust the start/stop times of the video (inspector -> Quicktime icon). The problem here is that it's very difficult to accurately adjust the sliders due to the small slider. Is there a way to extend the slider so that it's longer, or simply a way to manually specify the start/stop times?

Unfortunately, there is not. Your best bet it to use Quicktime or iMovie to trim the movie down to just what you want to show and then you don't have to worry about setting it in Keynote. This will also save some file size as you don't have the video that you don't want to show taking up space in the Keynote file.

Mutlitple start/stop times

I'm trying to create several playlists that contain the same songs. I would like to specify different start and stop times in the get info/options tab for each of the songs in each playlist. Does anyone know if this is possible? From what I can see, once a start/stop time is specified, it applies to all instances of the song across playlists.
Thanks.

Start/Stop time is tagged to the actual song file, not the play list. Sorry, but this can't be done.

Track start & stop times

Hi
New to this forum, so be gentle. I have edited stop and start times of varous tracks via the get info > options menu. Is there any way of getting itunes to show the edited track times without burning to cd and re-importing? appologies is this has already been covered

yes you can, although the technique amounts to creating a completely new second song file containing just the music between the start and the stop times you set. see the following user tip:
b noir: Chopping a track into smaller pieces using iTunes

Start/Stop times don't work any more!

I'm not sure if this is only since the iTunes 6.0.2 and OS10.4.4 update, but I can't set the start and stop times under options for songs or videos anymore. I am able to change the numbers in the option window, and when I open the option window (under Get Info), the numbers are still changed, but they have no (shortening) effect on the song.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Yeah. I made a song in GarageBand and wanted to take a single 30+ song and cut it in half and it'll start off that way, but the times aren't effected. This USED to work, but not in this case.

Problem Burning DVD-R with mac mini

Since I have my Mac mini (1.5 years) I haven't been able to burn a DVD-R once! Now I am almost out of space (7GB left) and need to backup. I am using Toast 6. It burns CDs fine. And it starts burning DVDs, but after 5 minutes it says "buffer underrun". Now I tried different settings, different DVD-R discs, burning it slow, and closing all applications. Nothing helps. I also tried getting rid of Toast 6 and just putting the DVD in, but then the computer doesn't recognize.
what else can I try? Wasting DVDs is becoming an expensive hobby
please help.

I also tried getting rid of Toast 6 and just putting the DVD in, but then the computer doesn't recognize.
What, exactly, does happen when you put a blank DVD in your SuperDrive? What option do you have selected in the CDs & DVDs System Preference to happen when you do put a blank DVD in? Perhaps you should set it to "Open Finder" so you can try to burn a DVD with the Finder. It may be set to "Ignore" or even to open Toast - which, of course, it can't do if you've removed Toast.
-Doug
P.S. Exactly which version of Mac OS X are you using? Your profile here says "Mac OS X 10.2.x" but all the Mac minis shipped with at least Mac OS X 10.3.x. You can find out if you select "About This Mac" under the blue Apple menu.

Custom Start & Stop times

The original Apple TV applied the custom Start and Stop times to video files, that you could set in iTunes under the "Get Info: Options" Tab.
However Apple TV 2 ignores these custom settings and plays the whole video file regardless of the custom start and stop times you set. Very annoying! Any solutions out there?

That's exactly what I use them for! Great for parties - except now the long gaps at the start and stop of some videos are back
