SDP, AAC, Chapters, and more. Call for help!

Hi there,
I am the owner of an online electronic music station called Proton Radio... you can look us up at www.protonradio.com
I currently broadcast with Shoutcast in MP3 format because it provides the easiest access for users-- it works in Winamp, iTunes, Windows Media player, etc etc...
But, MP3 is not bandwidth friendly. AAC/M4A and ACC+ are much more optimized... but, to my knowledge, there is no way to stream these formats in iTunes.
While researching this today I found a very small number of AAC broadcasters but they did so with Quicktime Streaming server, and the audio track was an .sdp file-- something not supported by iTunes.
So.... is it at all possible to stream mp4/aac/acc+/m4a into iTunes using QTSS or Darwin?
Thanks for your time,
jason

        Hi lindapet2!
    I would love to assist you with your device settings.  First, provide me some additional details as to what you're experiencing.  Are you referring to an audible alert or is this a pop-up message you see when making and receiving calls?  Please let me know so that I can further assist.  Thanks!

  • I give up! Can I send someone the ID CS3 file and print file for Help

    I have done everything I possibly can (given I am no where near expert), and can not figure this printing out.
    I have a food menu that is on 11 x 17 (will be tri fold) ID file with a border. The border is a "Placed" PSD file into a separate ID layer.
    Even though it looks perfect on the screen, I can not get it to print properly using an Epson Stylus 1400 series printer (wide body).
    The border does not print correctly.
    I can (and will if you want), print the menu to a file and send it to someone (along with the ID CS3 file and PSD file) to see if someone can tell me what stupid things I am doing.
    I also believe I can print to a file, then bring the printed file up on the screen and do a Snagit Screen Grab to upload to pixentral.com If this is possible, you will see how the border did not print correctly. I would also take a screen grab of the ID CS3 menu file so you can see how the border is perfect.
    I am hoping someone with a wide body printer can load 11 x 17 paper and try to see what I am doing wrong. I am printing it on 11 x 17, landscape, centered borderless stock and it looks good in preview mode.
    Any and all help would be appreciated. At least I don't have those OOLLM phantom lines like I did on my last plea for help.

    Hmmm.
    Looking at the last picture, I see what is going to be a bit of a problem for you, I think. Do you really have a thin red line around the outside of the yellow border?
    Here's how bleeds work, and why they are set up the way they are. Printing, and more importantly, trimming, is done on mechanical equipment. Paper sizes may or may not be entirely uniform in a stack, or there may be minor alignment issues when jogging the stack, or there may be dust build-up, or any number of other little things that conspire to keep a stack of prints from being 100% perfectly aligned with each other, or a cutter setting may be off by a few thousandths of an inch making the trim larger than intended. In such cases there is a possibility that color intended to run all the way to the edge of the page may in fact stop short of the trimmed edge, leaving the paper showing.
    To hide this, and that's all you are doing, hiding misalignments, areas of color at the edge of the page are extended beyond the page boundary, typically 1/8" in the US, so that the excess color will fill what would otherwise be a blank area after trimming. InDesign Allows you to set up a "Bleed Area" in the document setup, which adds a colored guide around the page for easy reference, and also allows you to check the "use Bleed Area" checkbox in the print dialog so you don't need to specify it manually.
    Now for why that narrow red line is a problem, if it is really there. Printing presses typically can maintain sheet to sheet registration that is very accurate, but desktop printers are often off by as much as 1/16" in either direction from sheet to sheet. Further, there can be some paper stretching during the printing process, and the aforementioned dust build-up or slight errors in cutter setup, which can cause the paper to be trimmed slightly inside the intended mark. Also consider that if the paper is cut outside the mark on one edge, it will be cut the same distance inside on the opposite side.
    So, if you have a thin line on the edge of the page, you need to be very accurate in both sheet-to-sheet registration AND in cutter setup or you risk cutting off the line on one or two edges completely, and leaving more than you planned on the opposite edges. The thinner the border is, the greater the risk of cutting it off, and the more small differences in position will show. (The difference between 1/16 and 1/8 is much more obvious than the difference between 1/16 and 3/8 )
    As a corollary, jobs that bleed need to have a safe zone, or "live area" that is smaller than the page dimension by at least the amount of the bleed allowance all around so that trimming at the outside of the bleed on one edge doesn't end up cutting off something important on the opposite edge. The easiest way I can think of to visualize this is to think of trimming as if you were putting an open frame the finished size on top of the print, and you move it around so that the hole exposes more on one edge while hiding the opposite edge the same amount.

  • Getting ms word and more memory for iBook

    I just got a used iBook 10.4. It doesn't have ms word. The problem is, it only has 640 MB capacity and i'm worried that getting word will take up too much space. Are there any tricks to expanding the memory? and does anyone have any idea how much more memory i'll be able to get from a mac store?

    Memory on a Mac is a combination of RAM chips and 'virtual memory' on your hard drive. You need space in both.
    Heat was a problem with some iBooks, but if your's is still running, it's likely OK. Your computer can be fit with 1.12 to 1.5 GB of chip memory, and more disk memory than it needs. If Apple no longer carries your memory type, consider a quality online fix-it shop, or do it yourself. (Buy a book and learn about your Mac.)
    Also, consider the free NeoOffice,
    NeoOffice (look around for PPC variety)
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15797/neooffice
    It's a complete office suite; and Microsoft XML format (for Word) was supposed to be called OpenOffice XML format. NeoOffice is a smaller and more reliable version of OpenOffice.org. (Watch for the .org: it's the free one.)

  • How can I keep the history of my dialed and received calls for one or two weeks on my iPhone 5?

    How can I keep my history for my dialed and received calls on my iPhone 5?

    The only thing is, I have read where it will only keep 100 entries at tops. I'm not sure as I have never let it get that high, however many business users have reported this.
    OP, how much history are you talking about keeping? Also, there is no method to archive this in any fashion to be looked at or searched at a later date.

  • I need help on back up and more storage for photos and videos.  I have a imac (500g) that I back up to a 500g hard drive using time machine.  How do I set up a larger hd and back that up as well?

    I can buy a 1T hd to store photos and videos to, but would need a second one to back that up as well?  I guess I need to know how to get aperture and iphoto to keep my photos on a larger drive and how to keep both the imac and that larger hd backed up.  Note- we can't get  DSL, so off site back up isn't a viable option.

    Move your photo and video libraries to an external HD. Apple explains how to do this in:

  • Fully unlocked but ca't dial and recieve calls - apple help!

    Hello, Please help me to resolve these problems.
    Can't dial - as soon as i enter into phone keypad and click any number the phone dial menu jumps back to Main Iphone menu. So I can't dial! it happens as soon as I click any number. The only way to dial is to add someone into contact and dial through Contacts. That's so far the only way to call someone.
    Can't recieve calls - If someone calls me then iphone does not respond at all.
    I can only see on the screen (small ring with trasparent sticks loading) I know that the iphone should ring, but instead it goes into freezing mode meanwhile someone calls. Also, buttons don't work at this time.
    One more this, I have went to menu to play some ringtones and I could not hear any of them. The only way I was be able to hear them all is when I have connected the headphones.
    Bought fully unlocked iphone in Germany.
    SIM card works fine and iphone is activated.
    Iphone 1.1.2.
    I have tried to restore the iphone through itunes but it doesn't solve the problem. Tried several times!
    Please help me!

    Thats your problem. Currently, the country code for Estonia is not hardcoded in a specific file - like I mentioned in my previous post. Because of this the phone application as well as the SMS application will not function properly.
    There is currently no fix for this that is santioned by Apple. You can call Apple Care and report the problem to be sure they are aware of it but many before you have already done so.
    Right now you have two choices - You can:
    1) Wait for Apple to release a fix and have your phone with limited functionality. There is no way of knowing if/when this might happen.
    2) Search Google for an unauthorized solution. Doing so will void your licence agreement and prevent you from easily updating your phone in the future as well as void any service or tech support from Apple for future issues.
    The choice is up to you.

  • Running OEM on a UNIX Box and more (Newbie, Please Help)

    Hello,
    This may be quite very simple for many of you. I am used to a windows environment and now have been dropped in to a Unix/Linux world. I am looking for some help in regard to:
    1.) How can I start up Oracle Enterprise Manager for 10g through Unix?
    2.) Can I use the something like the DB Homepage (Oracle 10g Personal Edition)?
    3.) What tools are recommended, I started up SQL Developer, it seems to work, but are there any better that do similar functions?
    I appreciate any help that can be offered. Thanks.

    Thank you so much for your help.
    I was able to get the Enterprise Manager to load up
    on a browser. But I got an error:
    Error
    Io exception: Got minus one from a read call
    As I tried to log in. Not sure what that mean, could
    it be a privalege issue?
    When I tired to emctl start dbconsole, i got a
    Permission Denied error... could that also be a
    privilege issue on the DB server or the Box its on?You need to do all the above while logged in as the Oracle software owner. i.e, the user that installed Oracle Server and the Enterprise Manager. This user is usually oracle if you used the default standards.
    And my last question to sum up my day of
    frustration.. I am trying to Link the Oracle Tables
    in Microsoft Access 2003. No luck using the ODBC
    provided by Mircosoft, I get an error saying:
    ODBC-call failed. ORA-12514: TNS: listener does not
    currently know of service reuested in connect
    descriptor. You define a TNS entry in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora of your Oracle Client (this case Windows), then the SERVICE_NAME parameter must match the dbname.db_domain of your database. Then the TNS Servece Name you enter in the ODBC Driver Configuration must match the Net Service name in the tnsnames.ora.
    Here is my example tnsnams.ora entry:
    My Database Name (and SID) is TESTDB. My servername is TESTSERVER. I connect to TESTDOMAIN.COM.NG My Listener is on port 1521 (the default). Assuming I have not changed my db_domain after a default install, it will be TESTSERVER.TESTDOMAIN.COM.NG (you can find this in initTESTDB.ora or spfileTESTDB.ora of your database)
    TESTDB
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = TESTSERVER.TESTDOMAIN.COM.NG)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = TESTDB.TESTSERVER.TESTDOMAIN.COM.NG)
    In the above example, TESTDB should be entered or selected in TNS Service Name in ODBC Driver Configuration.
    I am sorry for asking so many question, i tried my
    best to refrain from it, but after a day of trying to
    figure it out and downloading all kinds of things to
    "fix" it, i give up. Any help would be greatly
    appreciated. Thanks.My advice? Read the Enterprise Manager Documentation of your Operating System. You will find or download every Oracle Product Documentation at http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/index.html including that of Enterprise Manager http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B16240_01/doc/nav/portal_booklist.htm. Once you have familiarised yourself with the basics (at least), there will be no need to hack around the problems. you will fix it :-)

  • Calling for help?

    I was just wondering, if I call the apple support number will they actually help he fix my installation problems, or will they just refer me to the same few website pages that I have got on the forums?

    my Ipod 30gb video
    keeps telling me it needs to restore, it goes through the process and then it ask again stating that it has a Ipod in recovery mode and must re restored again.
    hmmm. if the ipod is otherwise working fine, that might be being caused by a Windows drive letter confusion.
    for troubleshooting advice on that possibility, see the following document:
