Recording radio programme from video to mac to dvd/cd

Hi-I have just aquired 66 and a half hours of the late great UK DJ John Peel radio show.They are all on video with just the sound.I would like to record them into the mac and then transfer this onto CD or DVD if I can.I have Sound Studio installed and have managed to record some Lp's and transfer them onto CD.So maybe i could use that-although i saw in a magazine recently that you can use Garage Band to record stuff on (although i have not bought the magazine yet).My geuss is that i would have to record them into/as MP3-which would mean i could get more onto CD or DVD.Does anyone have any pointers about the easiest way i could do this and if i would get 66 and a half hours onto one CD or DVD ? As I have never attempted to do this before. (or how many Cd's or DVD's it would take to store 66 and a half hours ?).Any tips please would be much appreciated
thanks

ps- i have been told that the recordings are of high quality mostly-so any pointers about the quality of recording i would need to make it do it in for the quality to remain high ?
pss-i do not yet have a device to connect my video recorder to the computer-but my geuss is i would be able to connect it via the sound output plugs-if their are any on the video recorder ?

As i browsed thru the net...that is all i get...JavaSound cant work on MAC.So now i am doing using QuickTime Java. But i get an error when i run the applet...java.lang.SecurityExecption: Only able to capture media with security settings when class is signed.
What do i do then?
I tried making it signed with a dummy certifiate...it is signed...but when i run it i get the same error message.
Please, i need this to be solved as soon as possible.

How to Make a Still from Video and Burning a DVD

Hello All,
I am using FCP HD and I would like to know how do you make a still photo from video footage?
Also I have to burn an editing project to dvd. I don't know how to use studio pro, but the person said that it needs to be a ntsc full resolution version. I am not sure what that means.
The project is about 10 minutes long and this person had me using the H.264. I have been playing around and I think I not doing something write because when I send the project to compressor it tells me that I have like 200+ hours befoe it outputs.
Could someone give me some simple instructions using the H.264 on how to do a good large size (over 320x240) QT movie to dvd?
THANKS...

To export a still park the playhead on the image you want, mark IN OUT, go to FILE>EXPORT>QUICKTIME CONVERSION. Click on QUICKTIME MOVIE and In the dropdown choose STILL IMAGE.
You will have to De-Interlace it in Photoshop after you export.
As for making the DVD:
Shane's Stock Answer #3:
To export your DV project so there is no loss in quality, simply go to the File Menu and select EXPORT>QUICKTIME MOVIE. Not Quicktime Conversion, fot this will compress the footage. Make sure the settings match your timeline settings, make it self contained and you are set.
Import this into iDVD or DVDSP and burn your DVD. Don't go the h.264 route.

Best way to record and store recorded radio programmes

I think storing it in the application server directory would probably allow for faster access, is easier to code, and doesn't depend on db connectivity.
As for the unique id, you could probably use the File.createTemporaryFile method--it returns a unique id for every file in a directory, given a prefix & suffix. You just have to remember to change the extension from a .tmp to the image format you're using.
Anyway, that's my 2 cents.

Recording vocals seperate from main music Mac

I do most of my music on a Mac Pro, running Logic Studio 9, but the location of the computer really isn't a suitable space for recording vocals in.
I can't keep lugging the Mac Pro about, so ideally I'd like to record the vocals in a suitable (different) space on to a laptop, then import the resulting audio files to the main project on my Mac Pro.
The idea is that I'd do a stereo reference mix of the music in Logic Pro, bounce it and copy that audio file to a project on the laptop (using Garageband or Logic Express to save cost).
With that project set up at the same tempo and sampling rate, I'd then record the vocals using the laptop. From there I'd copy the vocal audio file(s) and drop them into the music project on the Mac Pro, where I'd add any effects, processing and do the final mix.
First question - would this work? As long as I recorded the vocals in a project set to the same tempo and sampling rate as the music, would I have any timing or sync problems when adding the vocal audio files to the original music project?
Second question - if so, can anyone recommend any portable, Firewire 800 audio interfaces which would be suitable for recording the vocals on to the laptop? It would ony need to be 2 input channels maximum, but with at least one XLR input and phantom power.
Any advice gratefully received!

but the location of the computer really isn't a suitable space for recording vocals in.
Is there any other room that would work better at your location? If so, consider buying a snake.

Or reinstall Logic Pro on your laptop, but without all the content. Your license permits this, as you're not using two copies at the same time.
First question - would this work?
Yes. I do this often. Just be sure that both files begin at 1 1 1 1. Additionally, as I usually have many takes tracking o'dubs, I always record to WAV (BWF) files so I can use the 'move to original record position' command to align less than complete audio files.
Second question - if so, can anyone recommend any portable, Firewire 800 audio interfaces
Most FW interfaces are FW400. Just get an [adapter.|http://www.sonnettech.com/product/fw_adapter.html] and buy an interface which can be separately powered. There are dozens of suitable FW interfaces: one inexpensive box which I like is the [AudioFire4|http://www.echoaudio.com/Products/FireWire/AudioFire4/index.php] which is 6in/6out - they make an Audiofire2 but that doesn't have XLRs. Apogee, Focusrite, Presonus etc. all have small interfaces which you might like - just [search around|http://www.sweetwater.com/c683--FireWireAudioInterfaces/low2high]. Personally, I would avoid M-Audio.
Good luck.

Recording and playback from microphone on MAC OS X?

Recording Audio Music from inside the Mac

If i play a song or audio in my macbook, is there any apllication that can record that same audio im playing on my mac and save it into a new archive?
Thanks a lot!

Soundflower is a freeware way of patching audio from running app's into another app to record it - several free/shareware recording app's available if you haven't already got one, google 'freeware os x recording'.
http://www.cycling74.com/products/soundflower
Wiretap Pro or AudioHijack for more elegant but very reasonably priced solutions.

I'm sure there are others if you google around, but the above two app's demonstrate what you're looking for.

I can't stream a specific radio programme

I used to be able to stream past radio programmes from http://www.2ser.com/index.php?option=com_k2&view=itemlist&task=category&id=198
The shows are listed on this page under "Shows On Demand" in date order.
About a month ago this stopped working for no obvious reason. When I click on the show I want to hear, I simply get a black box with no play button. There is an option to open it in a separate pop-up window, but this also just opens to an empty black box. Formerly there was also an option to download the entire show, but that now seems to be missing as well.
I reported this to the radio station itself, but they are satisfied that it is working at their end, and don't seem to want to help me any further :-(
I use Windows XP SP3 and my Firefox is up to date, as is my Adobe Flash. In my Firefox add-ons, I have selected "always activate" for Adobe Acrobat and Shockwave Flash.
Any advice you could give which solves my problem would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

It looks like the site uses JWPlayer. In Windows 7, the JWPlayer uses the built-in HTML5 video player to retrieve a .m4a file which is an "audio/mp4" file.
I don't think Firefox on Windows XP can play "audio/mp4" (or "video/mp4") without using a plugin. I think the JWPlayer script is supposed to figure that out, but maybe something changed in Firefox 36-37 and now it isn't switching to a plugin automatically.
Do you want to try disabling a few settings to see whether the site then uses a plugin? This will prevent Firefox from natively playing MP3s, but perhaps that isn't an important feature for you.
Firefox doesn't have the built-in ability to decode MPEG media. Instead, it uses Media Foundation (part of Windows) or if that isn't available, DirectShow (an older Windows technology). These are enabled by default, but sometimes are disabled by users who prefer to download MP3 media instead of playing it in the browser.
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste '''media''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) If the '''media.directshow.enabled''' preference has its default value of true, double-click it to switch it to false.
(4) If the '''media.windows-media-foundation.enabled''' is set to true, double-click it to switch it to false.
If you changed these settings, does that make any difference? I'm not sure whether the change takes effect immediately or after you exit Firefox and start it up again.

I record radio programs

I record radio programmes off the internet and identify them by their Series and Episode numbers (AAC & MP3 files). Until now I have used the Album Artist tag to record the Series numbers. I now notice there is a Series tag but I cannot see how to use it. Also I am finding that my files are now being lodged in my iTune folder in 'Series' subfolders rather than the Radio show folders that I set up. Any thoughts? I am running iTunes ver 11.0.4.4 on a PC with Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit).

You have various options, depending on your needs and the source you want to record, for instance,
- Audio Hijack Pro (or its cheaper cousin Piezo);
- WireTap;
- iRecordMusic;
In terms of free apps, you can try VLC (which won't work with certain streams, eg, BBC), iMagneto, or the audio editor Audacity in conjunction with a tool like Soundflower.
You can probably find a few more options if you google it, but I'd say these are the main ones.

Radio programmes onto ipod - track splitting?

I regularly record radio programmes digitally and put them in mp3 format and listen in the car. I usuallt split the programmes into 15 minute segments (or more - sometimes 30 minute). My ipod mini failed recently, and I thought perhaps it was to do with having so many 15min+ tracks on. I remember reading somewhere that the disc can fail if there are too many large files. Can anyone suggest a way of transferring a large mp3 file into manageable segments so it can be listened to on my ipod mini? We aren't talking about podcasts here either - just normal radio shows that have been recorded

Most iPods have a 32MB buffer for the OS & actual audio playback. If your files are no larger than 25-28MB each, then you won't stress the system. A mini, or other flash memory based iPod may not even have that constraint since no spinning disk drive is involved in the process.

F10 - create video DVD from recorded TV programme

When I try to create a DVD from a recorded TV programme on my Qosmio F10 I get the following message-
"Media in the CD/DVD drive is not writable by Media Center"
I know that the media is writable by the Qosmio under normal windows but under Media Center it doesn't work on any format of DVD - data, video or DVD slide show.
Any ideas?
Tia,
Les

Hi
I found information that the driver upgrade can solve the problem.
Furthermore you can check this links. There useful und interesting news about Media Center.

Recording Radio on Mac

Can anyone tell me how to record a radio programme on my mac?
I would usually do this on my Humax PVR, but I forgot to set it in time. The programme is available online for the next seven days, on BBC's Listen Again service. It is not available as a podcast, so it can't be downloaded.
The only way I can think of, is to use a cassette recorder, with a built-in microphone, as close as possible to the mac, but that seems rather clumsy and, anyway, I would really prefer to have the programme on disc, not cassette.
So is there a neater way of doing this?
TIA

As indicated by Malcolm Rayfield above, Audio Hijack is the way to do what you want. You can either use Audio Hijack Pro as he links to at $32 or a simpler version Audio Hijack at $16 http://versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/16382
Browse the links yourself to see the difference. Both can record for burning to a CD or any other recording device. Realplayer as mentioned by the last poster is not a recording device, simply broadcasting.
I myself use Audio Hijack Pro along with an editing device Fission by the same company which means you can record programmes and edit out applause or links etc. I would strongly recommend the Audio Hijack series, superb recording and extremely easy to use to record anything at all, radio, record player, cassette, whatever that can pass sound through your computer.

My i phone 4 seems to have less storage recently, i can not record any radio programmes on tune in radio.

my i phone 4 is recently suggesting i have used up memory. this has never happened before. App Tune in radio wont let me record any programmes. i also had trouble taking some video. i have cleared a load of photographs and deleted a number of Apps but the Tune in radioi still tells me there is not enough disc space. i think i have managed to turn off all the i cloud settings

Have you tried checking your email on a computer and deleteing it there?
If I have to go to the apple store I will be there for HOURS!! I have never made it out of there in less than 3 hours and I don't have time to do that
Make sure you sign up for a Genius appt before you go. Then you aren't waiting around.

Switched iPod Video format from PC to Mac - "Restore" fried my iPod

I bought an iPod Video 30gb in Dec. 05. I originally formatted it to work with my Dell PC Inspiron laptop. Everthing worked great and I didn't have any problems. About two months ago I bought a Macbook and transferred all of my files, including my music, from the former to the latter. I authorized my iPod on my Macbook and registered my Macbook to read all of the music I purchased on iTunes. So, I made the switch from PC to Mac without any problems and my iPod Video worked just fine without any issues. It synched my songs, etc.
Then, about 2 weeks ago I noticed that iTunes would not allow me to update the iPod software because the "Settings" screen that appears when I plugged my iPod into my Macbook said that it cannot update iPods that use the PC format. So, I read the instructions for switching the format of my iPod from PC to Mac and apparently all I had to do was select the "Restore" function in the Settings screen. I did so and it appeared that everything was OK. It erased my iPod, reformatted the software, and then downloaded all of my music.
The next day though the problems started. My iPod started to freeze up; none of the buttons worked and I had to reboot it to shut off the screen. Strangely though, it wouldn't rebott all the way because it didn't boot back up. I waited a few hours and pressed the middle and menu button to try to reboot it again and it worked, but the battery was completely drawn down. I recharged the battery, but the same thing happened again after listening to music for 10 minutes. The iPod froze up, wouldn't respond, wouldn't reboot, rebooted later with an almost dead battery, recharged it and started all over. I thought that perhaps doing the "Restore" function again would fix the problem. So, I "Restored" my iPod two more separate times. But, nothing has worked.
I took my iPod to the SoHo, NYC Apple store this morning and they had no idea what to do. To my extreme frustration, they kept on trying to tell me that there was something wrong with my battery. But, I repeatedly told them that everything was fine until I did the "Restore" function to change the format from PC to Mac. Has anyone heard of this problem? Is there anything that I can do?
Thank you for your help.

see doing the following helps
For Mac computer
1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
seems it could be some bad sectors on the HD of your iPod, if the above does not solve, then do a Restore with a PC, and see what happen

I don't believe OS X has the ability to receive AirPlay (which is what you're using). There's some advice on the matter on the Wikipedia page, though:

Scroll down to "Third-party software implementations".
