Problem for Sound Format.

Hi,
I have developed a Game and it uses the .wav file works very well in Emulator. I sent that game to Game distributor, This is the reply i got.
We found no problem to implement into Device and it works properly except
with NO sound
Game use "wav" format for the sound. Other Java
games implemented into Our Devise use "smaf" format for the sound. We assume
that if you change the sound format from "wav" to "smaf", the sound problem
will be solved.
Now i hv got everything player to play samf file , convertor in order to convert the .wav into SMAF format.
1) But i dont know How can i play smaf format file using J2ME any Idea.
2) And i looked at the Phone specification it does support the .wav format then why my game does not play sound there.
My .wav format is
Bit Rate : 64KBPS
Audio sample size : 8bit
Channels 1(mono)
Audio sample rate : 8khz
Audio format : PCM

* Update
Performed a cleansweep and reinstall of the sound card drivers and so far no improvements.

[solved] Some programs cause problems for sound in other programs.

Today I noticed that audio has stopped working in some applications, but not others. The programs that I know where it doesn't work are:
Hotline Miami (game)
VLC
Dungeons of Dredmor (game)
Uplink (game)
Programs where I know it works are:
mplayer / smplayer (on the same files where vlc does not work)
mpd
Programs run through wine
Standalone flash player and the firefox flash plugin
Additionally, when I run a program where audio doesn't work, I have to restart programs where it does. For example, I'll pause mpd, open Hotline Miami, and then quit. When I try to unpause mpd, I'll get the error message "Failed to open audio output". But if I try a couple times, it will eventually resume. It's a similar situation for mplayer. I'll have to quit and restart mplayer a couple times after trying one of the other programs before audio will work.
Further complicating the matter is that there are no error messages for the programs where audio does not work. I can't seem to track down the problem. I also don't do much with sound beyond using mpd and mplayer, so I don't know when this started.
My hardware is a Lenovo IdeaPad z580 with integrated Intel HDA audio.
EDIT: I just noticed that the problem is not what I thought. Part of the problem was simply due to volume. So I can get sound in the listed programs. However, running those programs does still cause the problem for the mplayer and mpd where I have to restart them.

Gah. It does appear to have been a pulseaudio thing. I hadn't even realized it was installed, let alone running. I've fixed it. Thanks for the help! And thanks, brebs, for the asoundrc file. I think it'll help a lot.

Firmware Update 1.7 drains battery and causes problems for sound

I have a Macbook Pro early 2011 with a SSD. After installing Firmware 1.7 I saw the beach ball over and over even after rebooting... this problem got resolved after I plugged in power cable and is now gone even when it is running on battery. But the sound of my MBP goes randomly on/off when I plug in/out my headphones and the worst problem is that prior to the 1.7 I got up to 5 hours of battery but now only 2:30 hours. I've only 470 cycles of my battery. Resseting the SMC didn't help and unfortuaneltly there is no way of downgrading the firmware. What should I do?? This is definietly a firmware problem which supposedly was released to solve a rare battery problem on some machines not to cause problems on others.

I am seeing this problem as well.
Before the SMC Update 1.7 the battery was fine. After, it hibernated within a half hour of use on battery. Upon wake-up the Service Battery warning is in the battery menu, and the time remaining calculation has gone from several hours at a full charge to less than 10 minutes.
My battery is original MacBookPro8,2; I rarely work on battery, relying on it mostly to keep my computer going while asleep during a half hour commute to/from work. System Information's Power tab reports
Cycle Count: 19
I plan to try a battery calibration soon; if that fails, then the Apple Store.

Problem with sound format

Hi,
Has anyone experienced problems with the audio when importing to imovie hd06 from a dv tape? It starts out fine but the later clips seems to alter the sample resolution in the audio file so that audio is the same lenght but pitch is lower..?
Macmann

Hi m
Some thoughts about audio in iMovie HD 6:
• it should be 16-bit (cheque that Your Camera not is set to 12-bit)
• movie should be recorded in SP-mode (60min on a 60min tape) Not LP-mode (90min)
• lot's of audio clips = severe audio problems. Solution: Mixing down audio to just a few
by exporting out as QuickTime expert audio .aiff. Then importing this and silence out the rest.
• If You updated to iLife 08 Your iM6 will start to ill behave. Updating to 6.0.4 might help.

What sound format is the least overhead for OS X?

I use a typing expander and I have some small custom sound bytes that occur after an expansion. Every now and then I'll notice a pause as the OS deals with tacking on the sound after the expansion. I haven't really paid any attention to the format these sounds are - some are aiff, wav, mp3, m4a etc. For the puposes minimum response time and overhead for OS X, which format is the best. I'd assume uncompressed sound formats would be best because the OS doesn't need to deal with decompressing them, but I'm not sure. Note that I also use these sound files on my iPhone and iPad.

googling around seems to indicate that Linux has HFS+ support built in but you might have to disable journaling on the HFS+ drive you want to access from linux. that should not be a problem with a secondary drive. I don't do linux but when I boot from the ubuntu live CD I can read and write to my OS X drives without any extra preparation.

I just went through this and it appears that my Focusrite Saffire was the culprit. I connected all the outputs on the focusrite according to the way the jacsk on the back were labeled and then set up the multichannel speaker setup to match. Then I went into STP, created a pink noise clip and panned it around, the LFE, center and rears were not in the right place.
I reconnected the hardware to match the 5.1 pan pot in STP then changed the multichannel speaker setup to match. Everything appears to be correct now but I would have loved to have been able to just assigned the output busses to correct outputs in the saffire.
Next step is to pan that pink noise around with my SPL meter to calibrate the room.

Sound recorder/converter for .au format

I am using jdk1.1 and it seems it only likes .au format for sound files.
I couldn't use Sound Forge; saving was disabled. And I got some others in shareware.com. But they were hopeless as well. Most just didn't work.
Is there any reliable shareware app out there I can use to convert from .wav to .au or just simply record .au files?

Excuse me, the url has changed:

Yes! I got it, recorded .au format and played it in my java applet. Great thanks. I should have posted this earlier. would have saved my afternoon.

Problems to change format for webcam (linux)

Hi,
in this forum i found Ownes JWebCam. The code is really great and it helped a lot. In this code he searchs for all supported formats with the method CaptureDeviceInfo.getFormats(). In the program he uses only the formats he found. I thought this is a good idea and coded it myself for my program. My problem is, that changing or setting the format myself doesn't work. I set the format with FormatControl.setFormat() and this method always return null, only the smallest format i find works.. I thought i made some mistake but i couldn't find one. After changeing Owens code for linux and runing the program, i found out, that the captured video is just scaled up and still uses the low resolution of the camera after changing it to 640x480 and the method setFormat() return null, too. With JMStudio i can use higher resolutions, so it must work with the camera. Has anyone some hints for me?
thx
markus

Hi,
i found the solution on my own in firm this morning.
For setting a new Format you first have to find all the supported formats with
Format[] formats = camInfo.getFormats().
camInfo is instance of CaptureDeviceInfo. After this i need a MediaLocator for my camera.
MediaLocator ml = camInfo.getMediaLocator()
With ml you have to create a DataSource with the Manager.
DataSource source = Manager.createDataSource(ml);
The next thing you need is a list of all FormatControls. I think you need this, because you need the correct FormatControl instance for the Format you want to set later.
FormatControl[] formatControls = ((CaptureDevice)source).getFormatControls();
Now you should have all you need to set a Format of your choice. Choose a Format out of formats[] you want to set. Save it in some variable. In this example i use the Variable myFormat. Now you have the Format you want to set. In the next step you have to find the compatible FormatControl for your wanted Format. To find it, you have to search the formatControls Array.
Format finalFormat = null;
for (int i = 0; i <formatControls.length; i++) {
if (formatControls[i] == null)
continue;
if ((finalFormat = formatControls.setFormat(myFormat)) != null)
break;
If formatControls[i].setFormat(myFormat) doesn't return null, you found the campatible formatControl for your Format and set the Format.
All you have to do now is to connect to the source, create a Player and do whatever you want to do with it.
Player player = null;
try {
source.connect();
player = Manager.createPlayer(formattedSource);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
I hope this will help anyone. Owens code (http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=570463&tstart=50) is really great and helps a lot, thanks for this, but i didn't find out how to change the resolution for the camera. Maybe i was just too stupid to find it :-) With Owens code i could solve all the other problems i had.
Have fun with this

Sound Formats for submitting to withoutabox

I made a short film and edited through FCPX and am submitting to film festivals through "withoutabox" online.
I am not sure what to put for certain sound formats that they ask.
First, they ask, Mono or Stereo? Not sure which to choose.
And second they ask this:
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

No, I meant that if I had to implement 24 bit resolution support for the hardware codec/controller/dsp that already supports 32 bit resolution, I would go for the trade off of 3 times the latency, compared to 32 bit for the sake of simple implementation (I assume some hardware restrictions here, simply filling 24 bit data to 32 bit with zeros would be easier). That however is a comparison of latency (strict delay in this case) between the data being send and processed, so the actual latency difference in audio might not exist at all. This remark has nothing to do with alsa whatsoever.
"The best" is not empirical. What is your setup? Do you know what mass inertia is? Quality is a difficult topic and one has to consider the whole signal path/chain: beginning from the source, through all connections and amplifiers, ending with speakers or headphones. Is 32 bit better then 24 bit? That depends on the circumstances (like emi, elements along the signal path that alter the signal etc.). If you only take resolution in consideration, then yes, since it is more precise representation of the original signal.

Problem with sound in LG S5200

HI,
i am trying to port a game to LGS5200 handset , the problem is that the game sounds doesnt work in it. My game works fine for Nokia handsets. What changes shud i make? i am using nokia s40 as reference build.
And i tried changing the sound format to midi but still my game sounds dont play.
Plz help.
Thx

@unick,
Have you tried doing a factory restore? Did you have this issue when you first have the laptop? I understand you wrote that this issue came after 2 weeks? Is there any antivirus software which you have installed? Appreciate if you could try a factory recovery first if you haven't done so.

Labview Synthesiser: Problem outputting sound via MacBook soundcard

Hi all!
First time posting here, hopefully i'm in the right section of the forum. Anyway, i'm a part time student and currently studying a module on Labview in university. As a mini project i decided to build a synth using Labview. I've it mostly built but i'm having a bit of trouble outputting sound to the soundcard. I'm also having a bit of trouble getting the waveforms to play for a longer time period.
I was sort of copying the setup of one of the example VIs (generating sound vi i think) and another vi i found online but i can't seem to get mine to work using my synth design. I've two problems, one is that the waveform only plays for a very short time but the main problem is that i'm getting an error (error 4803) saying the soundcard cannot accomodate the specified configuration but as far as i can see my setup is more or less the same as the generating sound vi (which works on my fine macbook). Obviously i'm missing something so i decided to come on here and ask for help.
I'm guessing the datatype connected to my sound output configure vi could be causing a problem since it has a red dot on the input terminal. Any suggestions on how i should fix this?
I've my vi attached. Any help would be appreciated!
Cheers!
Edit: I've already fixed the error 4803 problem. Had to change the input to the sound output configure sub vi. Now i just have to figure out how to get the sound to play for longer. Any ideas anyone?
Solved!

OK. You have several problems.
The cluster order in your Format cluster is Rate, Bits, Channels while the order in the "sound format" cluster on Sound Output Configure.vi is sample rate (S/s), number of channels, bits per sample. LabVIEW connects clusters according to the cluster order. How to avoid this: Pop up on the sound format conpane terminal on the Sound Output Configure.vi icon on the block diagram and choose Create Control. That will put a control with the same names and cluster order on the front panel. You can edit the names if you wish as long as you do not change the cluster order. The alternate is to Unbundle the data from your cluster control and then bundle it to the input cluster. I show this in the modification of your VI attached.
The VI does not respond to the Stop button until the event structure executes, which only happens when a key is pressed. Fix: Add an event case for the Stop Value Changed event. I show this in the modification of your VI attached.
The VI does not recognize changes in Octave, Amplitude, Osc Select, or Filter Frequency until the second keypress after changing any of these controls. Why? Dataflow. Those controls are probably read within microseconds after an iteration of the for loop starts. They are not read again until the next iteration regardless of when or how many times they are changed. The loop will not iterate until the Event structure completes, which only happens when a key is pressed. The Fix: Event cases for Value Changes on those controls. Note that this does not work because now there is no defined frequency. So, you also need some shift registers. Because of the problems mentioned, I did not put this into the modified VI.
Next, the event structure freezes the front panel until the code inside has completed. This becomes quite apparent when you set the duration to 2 seconds and press several keys quickly. The fix to this and the problem in the paragraph above is a parallel loop archtitecture, such as the Producer/Consumer Design Pattern.
Not a problem but a different way of doing something: Use Scale by Power of 2 from the Numeric palette in place of the case structure connected to Octave. I show this in the modification of your VI attached.
Now to your question about tone duration: The duration of a signal generated by the Sine Waveform.vi and the others is determined by the sampling frequency and the number of samples. You are a student so you can do the math. You need to adjust the number of samples because the sampling frequency is fixed.
The modified VI works fine on my iMac.

Problems with Sound in Quicktime Pro

Im having problems with my Quicktime Pro. Basically whenever i open up a movie file using Quicktime (.mov, .avi, .mpg, etc) the video will play but the audio jumps and sounds like B B B B B, K K K K, D D D D.
It does this even if i open a Quicktime Movie (.avi or .mov) in another player because its still using the Quicktime codec.
Ive asked for help on the Quicktime support page because i am a paying customer but they have not replied.
It is a big problem for me due to my Pro Tools Audio Post work, which i cannot do at the moment bacause i cant even import a movie file because Pro Tools uses the Quicktime codec to import movies. Even software with videos that are in Quicktime format will not work.
If anyone can make any suggestions on how i might overcome this problem i will be very thankfull if you would reply to this post.
Thank You

This is an inherent [feature|problem] with using POP - each client keeps track of which messages have been read or not, and has no idea of what other clients have done.
The typical solution is to use IMAP rather than POP. IMAP keeps that data on the server, so it's easy for clients to see what's new and what isn't.
I have no idea whether hotmail support IMAP, though. If they don't then consider changing your setup to a different provider if needs be.
