Seeking LR5 Solution for Dolby 5.1 sound

Many AVCHD video cameras (including models from SONY and Panasonic) have the ability to record Dolby 5.1 surround sound.
These sound tracks can be played on any Windows 7 system with Windows Media Player.  They can be played and edited in Premiere CS6 and (I think) also Premiere Elements.
UNFORTUNATELY Lightroom has no codec for Dolby 5.1 sound.  Therefore any video recorded with Doolby 5.1 sound encoding is SILENT when played in Lightroom!  Furthermore, such video clips published from Lightroom are typically also without sound (unless publishing the unedited clip in original format).
Adobe seems unwilling to pay the licensing fees to Dolby Labs to include this playback capability.   Surprising, and disappointing.
This problem was there from the beginning in LR4.   It appears that LR5 is no better (for this problem).
Has anyone found a good solution or workaround?   It seems silly that it can't work better.  Is anyone offering a plug-in to enable Dolby 5.1 sound playback?

I'm facing exactly the same problem... I'm very disappointed since this problem has been reported to Adobe at the early beginning of LR4 and they haven’t change anything with LR4 RC1/2 or LR5. I see basically two ways for a workaround:
1) Import the original files and find a way to enable LR to payback Dolby 5.1
2) Convert the original files before importing them into Lightroom
1) That is definitively the best way since we don't touch the original data, but I'm not sure such a plug-in exist. This way would even be better if we assume that one day Adobe will enable Dolby 5.1 playback within LR.
2) That is probably the only possible way. I've done some testing; it is really time consuming and worst the original data will be changed.
>> Does anybody have any good advice for converting files?
Lee Jay a écrit:
I guess my approach would be to use a transcoder like MediaCoder or Handbrake to copy the video (direct stream copy, no transcoding) while stripping the audio down to two channels.
>> What do you mean eaxtly with "direct stream copy no transcoding" ?

  • FOUND SOLUTION FOR dv7 4121er STUTTERING SOUND!!!

    Alright. Sorry for bad english.
    I got new Pavilion dv7 4121er with stuttering sound/glitching/laggy games from the box. Lurking this forum got and try many different solutions for resolving this issue. Nothing work.
    So let me be close to the problem - i just noted (thanx for RamonGutierrez on this forum for idea) that my HDD led very often turn red\orange and right for that - i got slow performance in gaming\loading stuff etc. So definetely something wrong with HDD. Then, lurking more - HP got utility "HP 3D Drive guard". This utility prevent damage for HDD in case of laptop just dropped on the floor. This utility parking heads of HDD and do it VERY often. So i just turn this utility OFF (unintall or just disable i think it's no difference). And restart PC. Gues what? NO MORE RED HDD LED. Just virgin white when data transmitted, NO AUDIO STUTTERING AT ALL (at least 4 hour with BFBC 2 and GTA 4 testing) and no laaaag or long loading in games!
    Hope this is the solution! Worked for me anyway! Good luck!

    Apparently HP 3D DriveGuard is already disabled for me (I never messed around with it and it was already disabled) yet I still have the problem. Why do I think this guy is just making false claims, possibly working for HP to make people keep their defective computers with the hope of a fix?
    You got me buddy!
    In fact, I do not agitate anyone had not returned their laptops and wait for a solution. I was going to return the laptop. Just in Russia is not so simple. I just described the solution that helped me personally on my laptop model. I'm not saying that it fit all. But I see that this solution has worked not only for me. 
    And then - you say yourself that the HDD light continues to blink red/orange! That because HDD STILL parking his heads all the time. Why? I dunno... Maybe someone else do. Try to ask RamonGutierrez - hi's just replace HDD in laptop - and problem was solved. Still im sure that was NOT IDT Audio Codec bug in my case.

  • Seeking a solution for synchronization of sequences in expdp

    Hi all,
    When i am exporting tablespaces from a live database, first the tables are being exported and then the sequences. and while these sequences are being exported, as this is the live database, the sequences are getting modified because of new insertions. So i am getting a conflict with sequences not being exported correctly.
    I am using Linux OS with oracle version 10.2.0.4
    Please provide me a solution for this.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Ravi kumar

    Sequences get exported before the table data. I find that kind of annoying too that the sequences can be behind the data after an import. To get around this problem I run the following to create a script that will regen the sequences. Do this any time after the export is complete and you will have no problem.
    set linesize 300
    set heading off
    set trimspool on
    set trimout on
    set pagesize 0
    spool regen_seq.sql
    Select 'DROP SEQUENCE '       || sequence_owner ||'.' || sequence_name || ';' || chr(10)

  • B540P Win 8 Solution for Graphics card, touchscreen & Sound problem!

    First of all,.. It irritates me that I had to use 2 days of nonstop testing to find my OWN 100% working solution to make my All In One work. There has been absolutely no helpful info from the support staff of Lenovo on this problem. And it seems that quite a few users have had the same problem as me. Now,.. If there was no solution yet for the driver compatibility for running WIN 8, it would have been fair But as there is obviously a WORKING solution, it irritates me that the staff haven't been able to find out what I did. I mean,.. win8 is new,.. But NOT that new, so the staff should be able to provide a solution much much sooner. If I wasn't a real TechGeek, who have been messing around with this since the birth of PC's, I would probably have had no chance to resolve this problem on my own. Which would have resulted in me delivering an otherwise really amazing computer back, as it would  have been close to impossible to use.
    Now for the solution:
    When I installed  win 8, I was pretty fast left with a bunch of problems. Touch was glitchy, the touch soundbar was stuck on top left corner, which left the PC hanging. Graphics card was standard and it was impossible to use apps like Netflix etc. To solve this problem do following:
    A. Install realtek audio driver version 6.0.1.6662 (if you already have a stuck soundbar, disable sound under devicemanager first. This will make you able to use the pc if it also hangs)
    B. Install Nvidia driver version 9.18.13.593 ) link: http://support.lenovo.com/en_GB/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS031642&rss=true IMPORTANT!!: when installing nvidia driver choose custom and untag the audio driver. If you install Nvidia's audio driver, you will get all the problems, witch stuck screen, stuck volume bar, as this is where the compatibility issues is. Only install the Graphics and Physx software, and you will be fine
    C. Install FN Keyboard driver
    If you did as above your now fine to go with a B540P that will run as it's supposed to . No more stuck of anything!
    You can also install the the win7 driver for remote control. I'm still yet to make the TV tuner card work, as I didn't have the time to look into that yet. Will most likely have a solution on that in 1 days time, when I get the chance to look deeper into it. Will of course post solution here when I got it.
    TechGeek over and out for now

    Well from what you write im pretty sure its in the resolution and/or refresh rate the problem is located. That will make your monitor shut down or not turn on if set wrong. From what i remember also analog and dvi have a different range of refresh rates. What about hdmi? Does the card have this? So you could try connect it to the tv,. Some tvs also have DVI. I would try find a tv or monitor with pure dvi, not using analog adapter.,.. connect it,. If it turns on. Lower resolution and refresh rate and connect it back again to your monitor. If that doesnt work that would leave me puzzled . Thinking back,.. I actually remember I had a smiliar problem in the past,. I just can't remember how it was solved,. But the "error" was in the whole resolution, refresh rate, analog adapter vs dvi spectre.,.. maybe it was something with the dvi to analog adapter,.. hmm can't remember.. Well anyways. Put your focus there. Not on the win8 drivers for now at least

  • What's the best solution for audio out of sound files from a MacBook Air to both an amplifier and to a subwoofer amplifier? I'm using the MBA to play sound files for worship services at our church.

    I have a MacBook Air (13", 1.7GHz, 8GB RAM, 500GB SSD) that I'll be using to play sound files (primarily organ and piano) for worship services at my church. We'll be using a QSC RMX2450 650 Watts/Channel amplifier with Community CPL-27 speakers and also a JBL SUB 250P powered subwoofer with its own amplifier. What's the best option for getting sound out from the Mac to both of these amplifiers? 

    if you work with own recorded sounds you might wanna have a music program where you want to work with samples, steinberg has got very good ones (so they say)... but their really really ( ²) expensive(that's why almost no one haves them), magix haves good ones too bu their more for 'unprofessional' use, ableton haves really good ones too and they're not to difficult to use (if you know a bit of those programs you learn very quickly) and if you don't get them, there is a sort of manual built in it which explains and lets you do things to start (basics)
    i hope this helped, btw stereo speakers are always better if you buy good ones (no pc speakers), but if you don't think you need them, don't buy them...
    so again, i hope you have some ideas now

  • A possible solution for the version 7 sound problem..

    Please forgive me if this has incorrect terms & names. I'm not really clued up with computers.
    If you use Mozilla & use the music bar at the bottom of your browser, while using iTunes, when the music starts to mess up, press the stop button on the bottom of your firefox browser, then press play again.
    This hasd solved my bad sound problem for the past hour & a half. I had no problems since I did that.
    Hope this works for others.

    After update my iPad 2 with IOS 6.0.1 the botton mute and sound + doesn't work...any solution for this??? Thanks

    There are numerous reports of this issue happening on iPhones. It may be a glitch that will need a new update. Some find that a full shut-down and restart fixes that problem, but not always.

  • For the second time this week the sound on my iPad 2 doesn't work. Who has the solution for this problemen?

    For the second time this week i don't get any sound from my iPad 2. Who has the solution for this problem?

    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

    the hdmi connection ran computer to tv then audio cable out from tv to receiver.
    i can get the sound to work if i connect an audio cable directly fron the hp headphone jack on my laptop into the same audio input channels in my receiver.

  • HP Solutions for Install Errors for HP Officejet 6500

    I recently purchased a new laptop with Windows 7 operating system. My printer is 2 years old. Windows 7 located and initially installed the printer. It worked fine at first, but after I changed the black ink cartridge, the printer would no longer print in black. Pages come through, sounds like they are printing, but they are blank or with some color (depending on the document). I have downloaded HP's install of this printer's software (took over 3 hours), seemed fine, but now it's back to no black print. I have tried to reinstall (again), but it gets stuck installing the wireless. HP sent Solutions for install, icon. Suggests disconnecting and shutting printer, modem, and computer down, then using printer install CD and reload. I have the CD, but it doesn't work with Windows 7. What to do?

  • Is there a solution for Higher Ed Computer Labs?

    I am an instructional Technician for the Photography Department at a Community College. We currently purchase and use the Creative Suite 6 Design & Web Premium here in the Photography, Graphics and Journalism departments. We have over 150 Macintosh computers licensed with your product and we are very interested in the Creative Cloud.
    Currently we purchase the licenses for all of our student and faculty computers, we are hoping that you will be developing an education solution for computer labs like ours.
    What we would like to see is an arrangement that would allow our students to subscribe to the Creative Cloud for a three-month period that would be paid for prior to the first day of classes. This would avoid classroom disruptions from students failing to pay if the subscription was on a month-to-month basis.
    While I understand that the current Student and Teacher edition at $19.95 is a limited promotion, a price of $20–$25 per month or $75 for a three-month period would be less than the cost of a textbook and could be easily charged as a class fee.
    A potential problem is that students sometimes do not use the same computer all the time. If students are taking multiple classes in different labs, they need to be able to access the programs on several computers. I am currently subscribed to the free trial month and my impression is that the subscription is dependent on logging in with an Adobe ID. If this is the case, students should be able to use this log in to access the software they need on whatever computer they are at as long as they have an active (paid) login, and are not logged in on another computer.
    As it is everywhere in education, our program budgets are tight. The Creative Cloud would allow us to save a significant amount of funds while still offering the most current technology to our students and faculty. The ability to access any software we need and allowing students the ability to access the programs at school and at home will empower both our faculty and students. Additionally, the availability of cloud storage will allow students to work on files at home and at school seamlessly.
    I am making several assumptions:
    Pricing –
    Student and faculty pricing will be available.
    A price will be established for a three-month period to facilitate a college semester.
    Access –
    Students will be able to access the programs on more than one lab computer.
    Is access controlled by logging in with an Adobe ID?
    Once the software has been installed on a computer, will any student with an Adobe ID be able to access it?
    We are hoping to be able to implement this by next fall, so I am anticipating that these details will be worked out before then.

    Great to know this I will be sharing it with my professors also.  To have the "team" version would be great!  Many problems occur for students with portable storage units.  The worst is forgetting to download a project and take it with you. which really hurts our timing on a project to completion.  Also as the projects grow in size we can end up with storage issues as some files are very large.  This sounds like a grand solution.
    Thank you for answering my question earlier Mr. Rice.  Now I need to get back to my assignments. bye.

  • Storage solutions for Aperture Library & vault??

    My Aperture library has grown to over 400 GBs and I am concerned about storage as it grows larger week by week. I have been using two 500 GB firewire 800 drives, one for the library and one for vault. Today I purchased a 1 Terabyte drive for the library, it works well and I actually see a speed improvement. I will pick up another next week for the vault.
    Aperture lumps all of the data in one folder therefore requiring the size of our hard drive to keep pace with the Library. I need a different solution than replacing firewire drives with larger capacity ones every three to six months.
    My main requirements are speed and expandability. I do not want to keep several aperture libraries, to me this defeats the purpose of an image database.
    I have heard the pros and cons of raid and I do not think it's the best solution for an Aperture based system. Sata sounds interesting and seems that it may become more standard. I have also read about using an out-dated mac as a server by installing several hard drives and connecting it to the workstation by gigabyte ethernet. I would like to have my library on a very fast connection, firewire is fine for the vault. I am wondering what others are doing in the same situation as mine and if you might have any advice.
    With the purchase of the 1TB drives I figure that I will be fine until mid to late summer, by that time Apple will have their new desktop available which I plan to purchase. It might be best to see what the machine will or will not support. Any thoughts?........
    G5 dual 2.0   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    As the previous poster said: this is an Apple problem that needs to be solved. I might add, it probably will be in the near future. So, you should try to scrape by for the next few months as best you can and wait and hope and pray for a solution from Apple.
    With DVD and Firewire drives backing up your original you are well--probably over--backed up. One copy on DVD is more than sufficient for your originals. Make more backups of the Aperture library which includes your original file and your time consuming metadata and adjustments.
    RAID 0 is risky because if a single drive goes then you loose everything! There are other RAID schemes that make your system more dependable. RAID 1 mirroring is safer but doesn't expand your storage capacity.
    RAID 3 & 5 are both more dependable and give you bigger working volumes but there is a lot of processor work going on to calculate parity (error correcting and data recovery information) that is spread across several drives. If you use Mac OS X RAID or Soft RAID that processor power comes from you computer's CPU--which probably has enough work to do already without having to crunch numbers for every byte that goes to/from your hard-drive.
    RAID 3 & 5 are good systems if you have hardware to to the parity calculation but they each require a minimum 4 drives to make a set--which you don't want to use as a boot drive. That means you would need 5 drives inside your G5 of a combination of internal and external drives.
    A cleaner solution might be getting a Wiebe Tech Siver SATA V case and port multiplier card (about $1500 w/o drives). That will give you a good fast connection for 5 external hot-swappable drives. Then use Ben Long's library spanner to get you by until Apple comes to the rescue with a multiple drive library.

  • Solution for converting the UFF58--- UFF58b or UFF Ascii.

    Dear all,
    Rightnow, I'm working on vibration analysis by using LV signal express
    2010 which seem can be exported the measurement file as the UFF58. (Universal
    File Format)
    but my problem is; I have to use this measurement file with another program which accept only the UFF58b and UFF Ascii format.
    I try to find solutions for convert UFF58--->UFF58b or UFF Ascii.  Does anyone have an idea? Please help.
    Thank you in advance.

    It looks like the LabVIEW Sound and Measurement Suite would do the trick, or possibly Diadem, though I'm not sure if you have LabVIEW.  What program are you trying to open the file with?  It may also have a package you can download that supports all of the formats.  For instance, there appears to be a UFF file reader and writer if you Google "uff files" in the top result, but that's only if you were using a specific program.  But I suppose the easiest way would be if you already had the Sound and Measurement Suite.
