The size of audio file has been enlarged?

I downloaded some Flac files (4.94 GB). I converted it with Amadeus Pro in AAC files (188 MB). I drag-and-drop these small files into iTunes (ver. 10.5), that is, iTunes Music Library.
Now I have the same AAC files - but miraculously enlarged to 500 MB!
What is the reason of this "miracle" - of this enlargement?
Assist, please.

Let me get this straight. You opened the file in Amadeus Pro, encoded it, then dragged the resulting AAC to an iTunes window? Does dragging and dropping to an iTunes window now automatically encode a file? It used to (I use an old version) just add the file to the library in whatever format it happened to be in (unless it wasn't supported by iTunes in which case it did nothing).  I am assuming this isn't really case and it still just adds the file, or did you "import" the file vs. just drag and drop to a playlist or library window?
If you did something to cause the file to be encoded (again) then it could be the encoding settings were for a different format, or for a higher quality (note, you can never increase quality this way from an already poorer-quality file - you just end up with a larger poor-quality file). If the files are already encoded with AP then there's no need to encode them again (and indeed some very good reasons not to).
If you didn't encode the file again (intentionally) does it look like iTunes did?  Any sign of some sort of activity when you added the file? I know on my computer encoding a bunch of files would take a lot longer than simply adding files.
Sometimes adding a file will increase its size by a tiny amount if you attach tags and embed large artwork, but not 150%.

  • How to know if the current application jar file has been overwritten?

    When I overwrite a jar file that is being used, the buttons that call new windows stop responding silently but is there some check I can make from within the application to know if the jar file has been overwritten, so that I can warn the user to restart it?
    I know this sounds bad so let me explain why I would want this, if you don't care then skip everything below this point.
    I have close to a hundred of users executing Java applications from a central repository in the network. This is important because the applications are always changing and evolving so it's important that I only have to update one binary. I do most updates after work hours so I don't have a problem there but sometimes there are critical errors that need to be corrected immediately. Depending on the amount of people using an application it may be impractical to warn and wait for everyone to close it and make everyone else wait for that so I just overwrite the files that need to be updated and then warn everyone to restart the application. The result is that buttons that call for frames that haven't been called yet stop working silently. Some users already know what to do when that happens but I want a more graceful approach. I wanted to check for this situation from inside the application so that I could inform the user of the update and provide information on what to do next. Can I do this? I tried some try and catch blocks of code but I can't seem to catch anything when that happens.

    You can write your own class loader that loads classes from that jar file. Make sure it isn't on the class path and when you want to create an object from that jar file, call up your class loader to do that. (You only have to do that for your "top-level" objects, within those objects creating another object will automatically be done by your class loader.)
    Periodically check whether the jar has been modified. If it has, refresh the application by creating a new instance of your class loader and using that to create new instances of all your objects.
    But that sounds like a lot of work just to avoid setting up an emergency change procedure where you get everybody to close their applications.

  • How do I view downloaded content when the error message, not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged, shows up?

    I trying to download a book as a pdf to view through my adobe reader. But every time I do I keep getting the same error message saying that the file is not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged it can't be opened or viewed. What do I do and how do I get it to work. Because as of now I only have one option of downloading the book and I've tried to download the app notable pdf to see it that worked but it didn't either. As of right now I'm using google chrome but I also tried using Safari but it's still not working. I have a Mac with a Mac OS X updated system. I need an answer ASAP. Can anyone help me?

    I have the same issue.  Almost none of the PDFs I download from Safari browser can be opened. Same message about the file being damaged or not really a true PDF.  Neither of these are the issue here. Size of file is not an issue. I have Acrobat Reader XI so I believe that's pretty up to date.  If I open with Text Editor the file is blank.  any ideas?

    Session "Circular Kernel Context Logger" failed to start with the following error: 0xC0000035
    As suggested above I assume this is a microsoft issue?  It has been discussed here and other forums for quite some time.  I never have seen a fix?  I wish when we received errors of this nature microsoft would tell us what they were.  How is this related to superfetch?  What is superfetch?  Why would superfetch have changed?
    BY THE WAY....  Superfetch is on(started) is on automatic and logs on as local system.  So this is not the cause of my issue.  Also what is readyboot?  Does the average computer really know what these programs/services or unique microsoft words/terms are?

  • Recording stopped mas duration for the file has been reached

    Has anyone else seen this message, "Recording stopped because the maximum duration for the file has been reached" this is happening on 10.6.2 server and client all updates applied. The File from podcast capture is not saved, it just disappears We are using a Hitachi camera. Any ideas?

    This problem has been reported before, here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1704655 . For some reason, that thread was marked as "answered", even though it doesn't seem to have actually been answered.
    I've just experienced the problem myself. I'm using OS X 10.6.3 with QuickTime Player 10.0 (113), capturing audio and video over FireWire from a PAL VHS deck via a Canopus ADVC-55. I'm using the "High" setting to record in QuickTime Player.
    Sometimes I'm able to capture indefinitely long amounts of video; sometimes, though, I get a "Recording stopped because the maximum duration for the file has been reached" error after capturing only a few seconds. This variability occurs not only between VHS tapes; it also can occur when using the same source VHS tape (the same parts of the tape, even!) repeatedly.
    Apple, this appears to be a QuickTime bug. Please investigate and fix it!

Can anyone provide a solution to this problem. Thanks

    YES!!! YES!!! YES!!!
    I got it!!! Yes!!!
    Guys, I've solved my problem about that error -10202 (Selected driver not found).
    I have installed in my Mac Pro (OS X 10.5.8) a document with an extension ".rsrc" to correct the position of the accents in my keyboard, like acute accent, tilde and circumflex.
    That file is called "U.S. - International.rsrc" and it's stored in the following path:
    "Macintosh HD/Library/Keyboard Layouts"
    So, when it's properly installed, I can choose 2 country flags on the right side of the menu bar (U.S. - International and Brazilian).
    That's the clue!
    When I pick up "U.S. - International", my keyboard works fine with the accents, >>>BUT<<< Logic Pro 9 doesn't recognize my audio driver; and when I pick up "Brazilian", my keyboard doesn't work with the accents exactly as it shows me on each key, BUT Logic Pro 9 DOES recognize my audio driver.
    So, when I want to write anything out, I will pick up the "US - International" and when I want to work on the Logic Pro 9, I will pick up "Brazilian".
    I hope I can help all of you.
    Regards,
    Renato Veiga.

    We are running FM version 7.2b144 on MS Win xp Pro (32 bit), and I did not notice this until service pack 3 was installed. I believe I have found a work around to the situation and another contributing cause. If graphic files are placed directly in an anchored frame instead of importing by reference, the file somehow becomes misplaced. If you right click the graphic and open the Object Properties dialog box, and see the phrase "no referenced file" below Main Editor: Referenced File: in the lower left hand corner, this has happened. I found if I removed all graphics files without references and imported them by reference, the source file may then be properly saved. I am also using a program called CCleaner, which removes cookies, temp files, browsing history and the like from a system. If the program settings are chosen too aggressively, and the application runs when FM has a file open, this same error will occur, even if all files are referenced properly. I don't know if SP3 has some similar application which is now running in the background and causing this.
    To summarize, if you want to retain SP3, I have eliminated this error by confirming the links to referenced graphics files and avoiding using 3rd party "cleaners" while FM is open.

  • The project file ' ' has been renamed or is no longer in the solution.

    Hello Folks:
       Developing on Win 8.1 Pro, Visual Studio 2010 Pro, C++.
       I'm revisiting a project I haven't touched in over 2 years. 
       Attempts to build result in a pop up displaying this error:
          The project file ' ' has been renamed or is no longer in the solution.
       And the build terminates. 
       Things might have changed in the underlying static libraries used by other projects. 
          I've looked through the Solution Explorer and the project's properties "Framework and References" window but I don't see anything with such an odd name. 
       How do I resolve this problem?
          Thanks
          Larry

    Some other things to try:
    1. Reload each project in the solution (Right-click/Unload Project; Right-click/Reload project).  See if any of them has an issue reloading.
    2. If you have multiple projects in the solution: Make a copy of the solution and load the copy.  Go in Build Dependencies and uncheck all.  Now build each project individually and see which one has the problem.  (Some of them might not link
    due to missing libraries, but that's OK.  You just want to see that the build starts).  Double-check which configuration Visual Studio picks when it builds each project; if they are not all the same, the problem is with the project configurations.
    3. Load the solution file with the XML editor.  (Make sure no other Visual Studio instance has the solution open when you do this).  Check each Project line for oddities, specifically, empty or mangled names, or missing project files.  Also
    check the Configurations.  It could be that the problem project doesn't have an equivalent configuration to the one you are building.  Sometimes the configuration definitions in the solution file get messed up.
