Sound challenge

Hello, I have a small problem with getting this to work
properly. I have sound in my original web page and I want to load
another flash movie that is not part of my original flash site. It
is on a external link . What I want to happen is this, THe original
music to stop while I go to the new flash page,( I can do this ok,
no prob) but where the prob is when I return to my original webpage
my flash site that has music on it will not start up automatically
without having to click on a button to turn it on. There should be
a way in action script that I can do this. The problem is the
extrernal link is messing me up. Here is my code. below.
Anybody willing to take this challenge on? It will stop the
music and start the new flash with music and when I close that page
the program music does close and my photos.swf is still there
but no sound. What can I do?
clickhere_btn.onRelease = function(){
_level0.mysound.setVolume(0);
//_level1.newsound.setVolume(100); (I did not use this since
I am going external link it starts up ok without using it.)
getURL("
http://www.chuckhunt.com/familyphoto.htm","_blank");
// this is where the new page loads with music
loadMovieNum("photos.swf",1);
//_level1.newsound.setVolume(0); this command is not needed
since I am closing the window the music stops
//unloadMovieNum(1); (I did not use this since the flash
page is not inside my flash program)
}

I know i can run it in threads at the same time but
how do i save it. how can i save the various files as
one file?Well your original questions was:
I can do the recording part. However, when i add the music to the voice what happens is that the voice plays first then the music plays. I want them to play simultaneously. how can i do that? Some help please.

Sound challenge. A hand Please.

hi all,
I am trying to create a sound program that can record your voice and then add a piece of music of your choice as the background. so basically the user records his voice after saving that, he/she selects a piece of music for the background sound. then saves the recorded voice and music as one music file.

Having challenges with sound

I have sound when using you tube and listening to my music, but have no sound on keyboard, alerts, games etc.... Any suggestions?

Make sure you did not mute the sound. Locate the side switch and move to its unlocked position. Identifying the side switch: The sound is muted when the switch is in its lock position, an orange circle above, and in down position. The sound is not muted when side switch is in its unlocked position, in up position with nothing n the bottom. If your side switch is switched to lock screen rotation, double tap the home screen button, and slide to the left of the multitask bar. Click on the speaker with a sash through it, and it should transform to a regular speaker.

Recorded sound with mic too far from subject in a larger room. Small echo challenge solvable?

I recorded my actor speaking from a mic that was a little bit too far and in a room that gave a small slightly noticeable echo. Is there anything I can do in Audition CS6 to reduce this "large room" ambiance and give my audio a more professional sound?
Adobe Audition CS6
thank you,
Robert

Nothing in Audition, no. You could try Zynaptiq's UNVEIL, but as with all of these tools, the results vary from a slight improvement to completely useless. Because the components of the reverberation are essentially of the same frequencies that you want to keep, anything you do at all, regardless of how complex the algorithm, is going to compromise the original signal. They don't even work very well on genuine reverb, where the original stimulus has stopped. I tried UNVEIL on a nice clean 5 second reverb, and ended up with... a five second reverb. There are rumours that it works better on less reverb - but you'll have to try it and see. It appears to contain a subtle masking system of some description, although on the website the description of what it does, like all so-called 'technical descriptions', is only really intended to mislead you.

Plugged my headset for the first time into my iphone4 to listen to music and the sound came out thru the phone and not the headset, anyone else have this challenge? Help

Plugged my headset for the first time into my iphone4 to listen to music and the sound came out of the phone and not out of the headset. Anyone else experience this problem? is there a way around it?

Sorry saker, but if you have not backed up your data anywhere, and you told the computer, in essence to clear the data and restore it with your iPod data, then you are pretty much out of luck....

Safari and Sound Notifications

Hey all-
Ive come back to Mac and am struggling with a coupla things.
Safari's been challenging for a couple of good reasons.
I don't see well, so my 15" MBP is usually zoomed in.
When I bookmark a page, I can't see rgw dialog box. so hearing it yawn, or squeal or anything, that'd tell me that the bookmark dialog window loaded and I pressed the button and got the bookmark.
Is there a way to add sound to this "Sphere" that is Safari?
- A Grateful-
-John

Hi John,
Go to this link and click: VoiceOver in action.
http://www.apple.com/accessibility/voiceover/
VoiceOver offers a screen reading technology that may be helpful to you.
Open System Preferences / Universal Access. Click the "Seeing" tab. Turn on VoiceOver
You can control your Mac using only your keyboard.
You may need someone to assist you in setting this up.
And third party solutions for Accessibility for the Mac OS X here. http://www.apple.com/accessibility/resources/macosx.html
Unfortunately, Safari doesn't support "sound" alerts for Tabs but you can enable system alerts in System Preferences / Universal Access / Hearing. I use the "Flash Screen" 24/7/365.

HP Envy 4 1080-ex Sound disappear

I have a HP Envy 4 1080-ex Ultrabook, running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit, it is not under warranty.
Unfortunately the audio does not always work on my HP.
After starting my computer, I hear the check-in sound normally, after 1-2 minutes (sometimes 30-40 min.) all of the sound disappears. When I look at the volume mixer, I can not see the green bar rising and falling so I think there are not generated sound.
I checked everything in Control Panel, there are nothing disabled and there are everything all right (according to Troubleshooter).
But there are one thing what I noticed: Sound/Playback/ my IDT HighDef. Audio speakers properties/ Advanced -> TEST.
When I click at the test button, I can see a Windows message "The device is being used by another application"
I think that my system is up to date, because HP Support Assistant checked all of my drivers and these are up do date..
Today I checked my operation system, it is up do date as well.

@kissgergoHU ,
Hello and welcome to the HP support forum and thank you for posting. First thing you would want to do is try a system restore back to when you know the sound was working. This will remove any updates and software changes that may have happened.
Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)
If that fails you can run the system back to the original settings by doing a system recovery.
Performing an HP system recovery (Windows 7)
I hope this was of help. Please post back and let me know

How do I get a handle on embedded sound files?

From the Sound Class information, it says to use the SoundMixer Class to handle embedded Sound Files. I have two sound files embedded, that I have setup in 2 separate layers, starting at frame one in the main timeline. I needed to do this so I could see the wave files, and coordinate text with the waves. I do not want to load these files into the .swf file at runtime using URLRequest. How do I get a handle on those as they exist, to make each controllable by separate volume and mute controls for each sound?
This will be a challenging question, because, "it can't be done" doesn't work for me. I managed to create a way to use an external classfile to control the main timeline, the ROOT timeline, without having to create a sub movie to root. I can use my component to call play(); as though it were in code in a frame. But it isn't, it's in an external classfile. I passed root to the classfile and told the classfile to think of it as a movieclip - that put the handle on it. I tried similar way with root as a Sound, but that isn't detailed enough - I need to get a handle on the frame that contains the embedded sound file. I embedded, attached it, using the properties view for the frame.
I've attached, or whatever you want to call it, these sound files to a frame, and this frame is or should be attached to the layer I've created. So, under the assumption that the ROOT has everything attached to it in some manner (it is after all the foundation for the COM), the stage of the root contains the visual components, so ROOT has to have the layer objects attached to it, which should have the frame objects attached to the layers. I have two layers that each have a .wav file attached to frame one. Somehow Flash keeps track of that - I want to know how Flash does it so I can read what flash reads.
If this seems redundant, it probably is. I want to paint the best picture I know how so I can get detailed feedback. Please, if you have questions ask them so we can clarify, and get this resolved! Thanks for reading!

lol.
ok, it can be done. keep working on it.

I'm having a hard time with my sound blaster z sound card to sync with cs6. Can anyone share with me

I'm having a hard time with Adobe CS6 synching up with my soundcard. Latency settings and other applications are challenging at this time. I had 3.0, but my Windows 7 computer is now "deceased". Please help.

I endorse everything that Steve just said but to try and get you going while you're shopping for an audio interface more suitable for sound work than use as a doorstop, try the following:
Go to the Windows sound control panel and make sure the SB card is selected as the default on both the Recording and Playback tabs. On the advanced menu for both, set the bit depth and sample rate to either 16/44,100 (CD) or 16/48,000 (Video) depending what suits you best. Note that your SB card only works natively at 16/48,000 so anything else involves a conversion that the card hides from you.
Go to the Windows Control panel and, under the sound section, turn off all system sounds (since they can hijack your sound card). Close every other application that may want to use the sound card (internet for example).
In Audition, go to Edit/Preferences/Audio Hardware. Set the device class to MME. On the drop down menus set the Default Input and Default Output to be your Soundblaster. On the Master Clock set it for the SB Output (this'll likely be default). Set the latency at around 200ms (you may need to increase this later if your playback stutters--or you can try decreasing it until you get stutter, then take it back up a bit. Set the sample rate to whatever you selected on the Windows Sound Control Panel.
The Soundblaster will likely have installed it's own control menu. Go to this and select Mic or Line as appropriate for the input and whatever you need for the output. I can't be more specific as SB keep changing what they call things.
Hopefully this'll get you going even if it's not the best compromise for quality and latency.

A challenge to Adobe: Allow me to use inline styles in DW by default or I dump DW

Years ago I switched from FP to DW because FP started forcing people to use CSS over HTML. That was FP 2000. I switched to DW because it respected my code... Now that CSS is mainstream and we are all in love with it, DW CS4 decides to throw a bone and tell me to fetch -- forces me to use CSS rules. I am fine with Adobe hurting my intelligence but at the very least I need the ability to convert CSS rules to inline styles. I do a lot of HTML emails for clients and as I am sure you know, Adobe, most [web] email clients ignore external CSS and <style> tag. Or let me put it this way: I simply want to choose between inline style and rules based on type of project. No questions or comments please.
So Adobe, you can remove this post right away if you like, but here is the challenge for you: If in a month you do not update DW SC4 to allow me to choose whether I want to use CSS rules at all + if you do not provide the ability to convert all CSS rules in a page to all inline I dump DW altogether. How's that? Also please check your records and see that I recently purchased your CS4 Master Collection. I am a serious CS4 user and this is a serious challenge.
With DW CS4 you abandoned DW's character of being a TOOL that lets users decide how to code. Redemption period of 1 months starts.... NOW. Tic toc, tic, toc.

Hey anygiven. Appreciate your observations. I also feel that Adobe has lost its way as far as the Web is concerned.
Here's another example from the Dreamweaver Help files. In the second video down on the Dreamweaver CS4 launch screen, called "Live View" (which isn't, BTW), the Adobe talking heads spend a lot of time on how to use a Yahoo calendar widget to create a calender of coming attractions. They make it sound cool and contempo and "next generation."
As a longtime webmaster with a small client who owns a bar & grill on the Oregon coast, I react to this Adobe video in two ways. First, if my client's competition is using Dreamweaver and following Adobe's directives, I'm absolutely thrilled. Couldn't be happier. Here's why. In the Real World, it's crucial to get search engine traffic to the calendars. But if you do what Abobe suggests in their "Live View" (Not) video, you will get just about zero search engine traffic to your calendar because the search engines can't fully index pages whose content changes in response to user actions! Boiled down, if you do it Adobe's way you'll spend a lot of time and energy to get significantly less functionality in your coming attractions calendar, and thereby deliver less value to your client.
So in a way, Adobe's Real World Web cluelessness actually helps me by making Adobe-led webmasters less effective and easier to beat. The problem here -- for me and everyone else -- is that is that Adobe and Dreamweaver have no competition any more. I'd be delighted to stand on the shore and watch the grief on the good ship Adobe from the distance, but I can't do that because in the so-called "free market economy" I don't have that fundamental freedom of choice any more.
I've also begun to wonder about my freedom to express my views here. Last month, I posted a comment noting the basic problem with the Dreamweaver CS4 calendar widget video in the comments section at the bottom of http://tv.adobe.com/watch/inside-the-dreamlabs/dreamweaver-cs4-live-preview/, and it was deleted by Adobe. As of February 22, 2010, the last comment on the page now reads: "Excellent video." That'll take care of the issue! I paid $800 for CS4 (on top of a shelf load of Adobe products going all the way back to 1992) and I logged in, but I don't get to offer an honest (and helpful) comment if it doesn't support the current Adobe dogma?
I hope that's not the case. I hope there's just some sort of honest misunderstanding here. I also hope that Adobe can appreciate that this is not just empty complaining. I'm not sitting here moving my mouth because it feels good. I'm taking the time out of a very busy morning to offer these comments because as an independent Web developer I believe it's imperative for Adobe to rethink where it's taking Dreamweaver.
Among the issues crying out for Adobe's reconsideration:
* Cascading Style Sheets. CSS is a hideously bad implementation of a decent-enough idea. Because of its inherent design flaws, CSS will never be adopted widely UNLESS people don't have a choice. Adobe should stop making Dreamweaver an agent of Web totalitarianism by removing the webmaster's choices as to how he/she constructs their pages. Just say "no" to the Code Nazis.
* Feature Loss. Adobe needs to start adding features and functionality to Dreamweaver, instead of taking features out as is the case with Dreamweaver CS4. Like the man said, Job One should be to bring Dreamweaver up to the same functionality that FrontPage had 15 years ago in 1995, including all the Web Bot functions. (I realize that it might take a couple of versions to get Dreamweaver up to full FrontPage functionality, but high on my list for the first version upgrade would be a robust threaded discussion group component AND the ability to include blog-like comments at the bottom of the pages.)
Like to see some positive response here from Adobe to these issues that have been raised by longtime, professional customers...

AEBS "Ghost" Router Issue - The Challenge for 2012 (and it's only January)

Yes, it's a bold statement to claim that I have the biggest issue so far for 2012. Why may you ask? Because I've stumped RCN (ISP), Access Media 3 (ISP), Apple Tech Support, and Cisco Tech Support. Here's the challenge for you to see if you can figure it out:
***Also, sorry for the long-winded post. I've spend over 20 hours on this issue and racked up a lot of info to share with you. So please bear with me***
I used to own a Linksys E4200 router (early 2011), which I set up using the wireless network name (for example) "wifi-box". Due to performance issues, I returned the router back to Linksys in April 2011. Shortly thereafter, I purchased a used AESB. I performed a factory reset (not a hard reset, as I know the difference between the two) before setting up my network. Things worked great from April to Dec. 2011.
On Jan. 1st, 2012, the building that I live in switched ISPs. I used to have RCN, and now have Access Media 3 (AM3). Both provide the same type of connection - cable - and both provided me with a modem (not sure the model of the one that RCN provided to me, but AM3 gave me a Surfboard 5101N...shudder). Once the transition from RCN to AM3 took place, I performed another factory reset on the AESB before setting up my my network from scratch.
Now, here's where things get start to get weird. I "Created a wireless network" on my AESB, entered in the name "wifi-box" (to keep it the same as before) as the wireless network name, and followed the rest of the steps until I updated the router. Shortly after the AESB restarted, I received a "Dual (or double) NAT" error right off the bat. Looking into the issue futher, there were now 2 wireless network names called "wifi-box"?!? Huh?!? The actual name isn't "wifi-box", but was something quite unique. So it was easy to tell that it was (once) my wireless name.
The next 5 hours were a blur of reconfiguing, resetting, unplugging, etc. anything that is connected to my network. Nothing worked. During all of this, I also switched the name of the AESB to (for example) "apple-wifi".
As a last resort, I unplugged everything - the Surfboard, the AESB, wiped all Airport Util profiles off my 2 Macs, wiped my profile off my 1 PC, shut them down, did the same for my iPhone 3G, shut off the power strip that the modem and AESB were connected to, and unscrewed the coax cable from the wall. I had a friend come over with his laptop, which he never brought over before, and had him search for a wifi signal. As you would guess, "apple-wifi" didn't appear...BUT "WIFI-BOX" WAS AVAILABLE TO CONNECT TO!!! Arrrgggg!!
At this point it seems that the profile is somewhere outside of my condo. But where???
Moving along, I used a tool called WiFi Stumbler to see if that could help shed some light on my issue. What I found was unheard of. The wirless name "wifi-box" was linked to a Linksys router. Once I discovered this, I logged into my Linksys profile (192.168.1.1) to see if it still worked. IT DID!!! However, that was short lived, because as soon as I clicked on a tab, I was booted out. On top of that, I couldn't log back in. Not sure if this is because it was looking for the Linksys router or not. Whatever the reason...it's just flat out weird.
Because the password to log into my old Linksys profile was the same, it somewhat leads me to believe that someone doesn't have the same wireless name that I do.
Over the past two days, I talked to RCN, Linksys, Apple Tech, AM3, had an AM3 tech out to look at it...no one knew what the issue was. When I talked to Apple, and they thought it might be the Surfboard. The tech said that the Surfboard is also a router, which is why the "dual NAT" error is taking place. However, I then spoke to AM3 and they told me the Surfboard was only a modem. I looked it up online, and it's just modem. Also, I was able to get rid of the "dual NAT" error, but yet I still cannot connect.
My current error msg is: "Airport has the self-assigned IP address 169.XXX.XXX.XXX and will not be able to connect to the Internet". The AirPort indicator light in my Network Preferences is orange, but the AESB indicator light is green (and is reporting no issues).
To end this, (if you're still reading), any help that you may have is greatly appreciated. Everyone I spoke to is stumped. I'm not sure where to go next from here. If you know anything, please let my know . As a quick recap, here are my current settings:
Devices:
     1) MacBook Pro (2011), OSX Lion;
     2) MacBook (2009), OSX Snow Leopard;
     3) IBM Lenovo PC, Win XP SP2
     4) iPhone 3G (iOS 4.2)
Modem:
     Former modem: unknown
     Current router: Surfboard SB5101N
Router:
     Former router: Linksys E4200 (wireless network name "wifi-box")
     Current router: AESB - Apple AirPort Extreme Base Station - Simultaneous Dual-Band MC340LL/A (wireless network name "apple-wifi")
     # of Router in my condo: 1
ISP:
     Former ISP: RCN
     Current ISP: Access Media 3
Thanks and good luck (to you and me)

Thanks Tessarax,
Thanks for the reply, and no worries about the long form answer. Yesterday, I went through your process twice (for good measure). I also unplugged/shut down everything overnight and tried it once again today. Unfortunately, the results are the same.
Me network is currently up and running, albeit a limited connection. It's still producing the "Double NAT" error. My Internet is set up as follows:
These are the settings for "apple-wifi" in the AirPort Util.:
Connect Using: Ethernet
Ethernet WAN: Automatic
Connection Sharing: Share a public IP address. ("Bridge Mode" and Distribute a range of IP addresses" cause additional errors which brings down the network. These errors include setting a DHCP beginning/ending address and no Internet connection. I tried setting the DHCP beginning/ending address several times, but the AEBS never accepts my entries.)
IP: 10.XXX.XXX.XXX
DHCP: Beginning/Ending Address: 172.XXX.XXX.XXX
DNS: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4
These are the settings for "wifi-box" in the Network Preferences:
IP: 192.XXX.XXX.XXX
DNS Servers: 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4
Search Domains: 221am3.com
802.1X: No profiles (I deleted them)
Bypass proxy settings for these Hosts & Domains: *.local, 169.XXX/XX
Use Passive FTP Mode (PASV): checked
MAC Address: same as "apple-wifi"
These are the settings for "apple-wifi" in the Network Preferences:
IP: 172.XXX.XXX.XXX
DNS Servers: 172.XXX.XXX.XXX
Search Domains: 221am3.com
802.1X: No profiles (no profiles were avaible for "apple-wifi")
Bypass proxy settings for these Hosts & Domains: *.local, 169.XXX/XX
Use Passive FTP Mode (PASV): checked
MAC Address: same as "wifi-box"
Two new discoveries that I uncovered yesterday are as follows:
1. 802.1X (under Network Preferences): There were 3 profiles that I deleted from this tab last week. After resetting the network, they came back. Whether they were present or deleted, it didn't affect the connectivity of my network. Just mentioning that these profiles came back after deletion (I deleted them again).
2. Yesterday, the network in my building went down for a few hours. I noticed that neither "wifi-box" nor "apple-wifi" were available to connect to. This is an obvious insight, but it seems that when "wifi-box" is unavailable, "apple-wifi" is unavailable as well. However, 'wifi-box' has always been available even when "apple-wifi" is down. Sounds like my Internet signal follows this path:
AM3 > Condo building > "wifi-box" > my condo > Surfboard modem > AEBS "apple-wifi" > my devices (laptops, iPhone, Xbox, etc.)
Two new questions:
1. What is DHCP Client ID and is this something that I need to provide?
2. Could the cables that I'm using cause any problems? Here's the cable that I'm using and the connections between the devices:
CAT5: Router > AEBS
CAT5e: AEBS > MacBook Pro
CAT6: AEBS > Xbox
If there's other questions or infer that you need, please ask

Are the sound clips from Final Cut Pro Fair Use?, Are the sound clips from Final Cut Pro Fair Use?

I recently found YouTube had flaged a video for containing a "third party" sound clip. All clips I've used in videos for YouTube have come directly from Final Cut Pro X. Any idea if the sound clips are Fair Use? I'm not sure how to repsond to YouTube and don't want to get a mark against my account due to this.

You can pretty much forget about monetizing that specific video.
[Okay... I'm going to ramble now...]
To avoid problems with youtube, you need to post a copyright (like this: @2013 by Your Name) on the video (I recommend within the first 10 seconds) -- and you better have it *right*. If you use other audio and video, as long as you have secured the proper permissions for use, you can still claim a copyright to the video you post on YouTube -- it is your creation (but it better not be a single clip of somebody else's work being passed off as something you did -- just to be clear -- your videos need to have original content that you created in order to justify the © you put on it. If you use *other stuff* as long as it's *with* permissions, it's still your video.) [If your video is going to be monetized -- make absolutely sure you have that permission for *commercial* use! Quite a lot of sources will specify that their materials *cannot* be used for any commercial use without further permissions, if at all. With Apple Loops (pro apps music and sound) you do have that express permission to be used in commercial works as long as it follows the EULA. More below.)]
You also need to specify the music and/or sound effects are "licensed from Apple Computer and used with permission" and you might as well state they are "made with Apple Loops". YouTube understands the EULA of the Apple Pro software (Logic, STP, FCP/FCPX, etc...) -- but even Apple licensed all that stuff from outside sources. Apple just takes care of paying "them" for it in advance so you don't have to (you buy it with the cost of the software license.)
You cannot use any of the "music beds" by themselves, in their entirety (all those nice long demo pieces everybody likes so much and you hear several times a day on [local] TV commercials). The EULA actually specifically states this (although you might have to read it two or three times until it becomes clear...LOL). Even loops are not to be released "as is", in their entirety, in any "derivative work". So, basically, make sure some other sound is mixed in with it (if it's music, add drums or other percussion, harmony, or duck it under talking, etc...)
The point is, no matter what audio source you have, if it is *music* (or foley) and EVEN IF you are the creator of that music or sound effect, you need to specifically put it in writing IN the video (not in the description). You need to reference the source (e.g.: stock footage by BottledVideo.com) and state it's being used with (or by) permission. [According to YouTube: I have copyright infringed MYSELF!!! just for leaving out all this *stuff* from my subsequent videos (music that I composed and performed myself on guitar... I was livid... but it stuck!).]
I can pretty much guarantee that within minutes of posting your video (if it is monetized) -- some real live person at youtube puts eyes on that video to make sure it is properly "signed". I can tell by how long it takes for the monetize checkmark to go from dark to light green -- usually less than 10 minutes.
If your video is not monetized, and it's not a blatant violation, they probably will let you off with a warning, tell you that you don't need to do anything "right now" and it won't count as a mark against you... If it IS monetized, it won't be - they'll turn it right off and your chances of winning a challenge are almost 0 (unless you can PROVE you own the material -- and I have won a challenge -- see * below); and you will probably see a "Copyright Notices" (or similar) item in the menu on your channel settings. If you can redo the video - pull the old one, put in the new info and re-up it. It's a royal PITA, but in this day and age, it's a necessity.
All videos destined for youtube should be treated as mini motion pictures and be prepared as such with full "disclosures" in titling... Welcome to 21st Century Pox [This statement is not meant to be derogatory to 21st Century Fox or imply any association or criticism or slander, and is only to be intended to be received as a parody on a common phrase that is currently still in use... No words were harmed in the formation of this pun.]
Get the point? YouTube tries to tell everybody -- but they've done a pretty lousy job of doing it. It's taken me, oh, I guess a year or so to learn to "behave" after wandering through a mire of confusing information from too many different sources -- and even if I am the sole producer of 100% of all the content in the video, I *still* have to place that © and "commit" it; it is *not* taken on faith. I actually had to go back and reread all my licenses and interpret the legalese to figure it out. It would have been simpler if they just put it: Your video is a miniature professional production. Make sure it includes all titling to reflect all participants -- *just like you'd see in a modern major motion picture or a major broadcast television series* -- I think everyone would pretty much understand what that involves. You don't have to get quite that extreme, just cover you bases and your a©©.
I tried to cover it all... but I'm pretty sure I haven't... so... good luck!
*How I won my challenge with an Apple Loops composition:
1) the music, even though using "canned" loops, was an original complex composition (I'll argue theory with anyone about this... it will be based on limited sets and recombinants as well as the theory of instrumentation and timing. In other words - I massage the heck out of loops until they don't sound anything like the originals. I almost never use audio loops -- always MIDI.) [BTW - this was another instance of copyright infringing myself - I had used the same music in a previous video I produced a year or so earlier... when I, like you, thought I was "free" to use the clips as I saw fit.]
2) the music I used in the video was originally created in Logic and I made sure the ID3 tags were filled in with my name and copyright information
3) I have a YouTube Associated Website (think this is a "partner" thing... and google "sanctioned") but if you see it, make sure you associate your domain. [I think you might be able to create a Google+ account and associate a domain that way if it's not part of your YouTube settings.]
4) I uploaded the original mp3 with the ID3 tags to my associated domain.
5) in the challenge, I 1) attached the original mp3 (w/ID3 tags); 2) gave youtube a link to the copy on my associated website for *verification* that the files belonged to ME; (and they already had the URL to the video in question -- a basic 3 point verify.)
It worked. They accepted the verifcation. (And this was the first challenge I've been able to win.) [This was very recent. What about the others? I might get a chance to complete the verifications, but I know for some, I've used up my challenges. The only other option is to pull them and redo them...]
One last word of advice: It does not pay to get "huffy", indignant, or righteous with YouTube in a challenge. They don't care. <-- read that again a lot more slowly... They have their own behinds to take care of — and your video (and/or account) lives (or dies) by their grace. If you read that and infer that I have been those things, then yes, I have... to absolutely no avail... even though I thought I was right (to the best understanding I had at the time) — they have rules. Be respectful. In general, they're pretty relaxed about all this even though it might not look that way to many users. Once you get the rules down, everything goes a lot easier... even if it is a little more work. You have to take responsibility for your own work.
