TRUE BLU-RAY AUDIO - X58 Pro-E very important question !

I have a problem.
I want to buy a motherboard with X58 Pro-E and build HTPC HD Audio.
What does this mean "TRUE BLU-RAY AUDIO" ?
There is no HDMI output, only S/PDIF !!!!!
- There is no HD audio bitstream (DTS-HD MA/TrueHD) - no HDMI !!!
- Does not decode HD Audio -> LPCM 7.1 - no HDMI !!!
- That decodes the HD Audio (7.1) to analog?
- If only decodes HD from Blu-Ray Stereo (via. SPDIF)?
What does this mean "TRUE BLU-RAY AUDIO" on MSI motherboard ?
Regards.

  >> TRUE BLU-RAY AUDIO <<
• The loss-less content protection technology with full-rate audio enjoyment from Blue-ray Disc
• Support for 24-bit / 192kHz sample rate offers high quality digital decoders and speakers
• support 7.1 channels playback, plus 2 channels of independent stereo sound output (multiple streaming) through the front panel stereo outputs
 There is no HDMI because there is no onboard video. The video card you get would need to have HDMI output.
LPCM: Linear Pulse Code Modulation. It is an algorithm used to convert analog audio to digital. It gives pure loss less representation of the original analog audio in digital.
7.1 is the latest in speaker configuration. Mono is one speaker, stereo is two, 5.1 has 5. The problem with 5.1 is it produces angled audio. To get the best out put you have to sit in the center and all speakers have to be placed the right way. 7.1 solves those problems, even if the speakers are not perfectly aligned you still get very good results.
 S/PDIF-out JSP1 on MB connects to video card for HDMI sound.

  • Comment lire les DVD Blue Ray sur mac pro HELP ME

    bonjour,
    Je n'arrive pas à lire les DVD Blue Ray sur mon mac. dès que j'insère le DVD , IL EST automatoquement ejecté . Merci de votre aide
    A bientot

    Hi
    Je ne parle pas Francaise at all - so I guess that it's about Blu-Ray .
    I use Roxio Toast™ 10 Pro incl BD-component (now version 11) to do sort of Blu-Ray coding to standard DVDs - limit is about 20-30 minutes if quality is keept. It can also burn true Blu-Ray but then You need a BD-Burner and BD-disks.
    The DVDs with BD-code needs a Blu-Ray player to be played - I use a PlayStation 3

    Tom Daigon Great idea everybody! Encourage Adobe to do ONLY ONE THING with AE for 2014. Since theres not a heck of a lot of development that can be done on the present foundation, they can really stretch the rental scheme out for many years.And once you get used to the concept, every year they will do ONE THING to placate you. So now they have you swallowing no "ownership" of software and limited development. 

  • Encore CS4 is transcoding compliant Blu-Ray audio assets when set to 'Do not transcode'

    Hi there,
    I have a Blu-Ray concert video project consisting of 3-menus, 4-sequentially linked timelines (intro-1, intro-2, main concert timeline, and credits).
    All audio assets consist of 96k/24-bit WAV files from the same professionally rendered mastered audio source.
    Here's the issue:
    When importing my 96k/24-bit audio assets in Encore CS4, they all show as Blu-Ray compliant and maintain the 'Do not transcode' property in the assets menu.
    However, after rendering the project to Blu-Ray I immediately noticed that the main concert timeline (2-hrs 10-min) had been transcoded down to 48k/16-bit while the other smaller intro/credits timelines had rendered correctly and were playing back at the desired 96k.24-bit rate.
    In order to eliminate possible issues with the main timeline's audio file source, I created a smaller main timeline (35-min) using the exact same audio source files and lo & behold - the main timeline was not down-transcoded and is playing back at the desired 96k/24-bit rate.
    I'm wondering if there is a non-documented limitation in rendering audio files over a certain size as my main timeline is made up of 2-total WAV files of 2.2Gb each.
    I have the ability to import a single AIFF file at 4.4GB for the main timeline - but for some reason CS4 does not recognize AIFF files as Blu-Ray compliant and will show the transcode setting as 'Automatic'.
    Imported AIFF files always showed as 'Do not transcode' in the Blu-Ray assets menu in Encore CS3 (even though there is a documented bug which prevents rendering AIFF audio to Blu-Ray and I would have to convert to WAV files and re-import anyway in CS3).
    My next step is to try splitting the main timeline into shorter chunks, but this is not the direction I want to go in.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    -Cheers

    Ok, solved my own problem - solution below for those with similar issues.
    1. My audio timelines exported from Final Cut Pro as AIFF are actually 'AIFC' which is technically not Blu-Ray compliant, thus Encore will need to transcode. Unfortunately - Encore has no quality preset settings for dealing with PCM audio transcodes higher than 48k/16-bit (why not?). Encore CS4 will happily pass 96k/24-bit through to a Blu-Ray build without transcoding if the supplied file is true AIFF (not-AIFC) and/or similarly compliant WAV files.
    2. My main Encore timeline consisted of 2-WAV files at 2.2Gb each placed in a single Encore timeline due to the total audio being over 4GB thus requiring me to split the source audio files in half in order to stay under the 4GB limit for WAV files, and also because I had to export the FCP audio timeline using Compressor in order to generate Blu-Ray compliant audio files (non-AIFC). Also - (possible bug?) if Encore has 2-separate audio files in the same timeline it will transcode the audio to the current project's default audio settings (48k/16-bit in my case) - even though the assets are showing as 'Do not transcode' in the asset menu for Blu-Ray. It clearly states in the Encore CS4 manual that imported WAV files at 96k/24-bit will not be transcoded - but it appears in this case when 2-audio files are placed in the same timeline that it will transcode with no warning - bothersome to say the least.
    I suppose the alternative is to work with a lossless audio format which supports files larger than 4GB - which would only require a single audio file for a single Encore timeline, but other than DTS Master Audio (not available on this project) I'm not sure what audio format would work in Encore to support 96k/24-bit audio files larger than 4GB.
    If anyone knows - drop some knowledge!
    -Cheers

  • DVD & Blu-Ray audio out of sync after export

    When I use FCP X's built in DVD or Blu-ray export option, about halfway through the video, the audio becomes out of sync and becomes ahead of the video.
    How can I fix this?

    Freddy,
       You will see that I am experiencing the same issue with my DVDs and BDs per my question 3 hours prior to yours.  It never was an issue until very recently.  I may have a solution.  Realizing that my audio was acting as if I had "Drop Frame" audio attached to "Non-Drop Frame" video, I went back to my source material to verify my acquisition settings.  All elements of the production were recorded appropriately as "Drop Frame."  Playback on the "Timeline" (Passé now) was perfect.  No audio sync issues there.  So I felt it must be some rendering setting within Compressor and the render engine.  When you go to Compessor (Send to Compressor), you will gain access to the audio render settings for both DVD & BD.  Typically, the "Retiming" under the "General" tab of the Audio Inspector is set to "100% of source."  I Went ahead and checked off the radio button below that to render the audio at the exact duration of my program (nearly 3 hrs long).  I did this for the DVD version of the program and placed it into DVD Studio Pro to replace the bad sync audio.  Well wudda ya know....it worked.  I haven't burned the DVD yet, but that is next.  I suspect that if this works for the DVD, it may work for the BD render as well.  Wish me luck.  I hope this helps.
      On a side note:  If all else fails, render a MASSIVE master file and use that in Toast to make a BD.  Not the best option, but it will get you out the door.

  • AVCHD to Blu-Ray - Audio Out of Sync

    I just burned a test disc from FCP 7 to Blu-Ray using my Mac Pro's SuperDrive and, thusly, AVCHD. The video looks great on my 42" LCD (played from an LG Blu-Ray player), but the audio is slightly out of sync. I'd say it's about 10 frames or so behind the video. Anyone else experience this? Any ideas how to solve it?

    Another thing to try is to make sure that your sequence is fully rendered before export. Not sure the level of your fcp experience, but making sure everything's fully rendered is not intuitive. If the thin lines at the top of the timeline are all blue, you're fully rendered.

  • Blu-Ray audio does not loop properly on simple menu

    I have authored a Blu-Ray disc using CS4 of Encore. Each menu is very simple: No motion elements. I have added a short clip of music to each (about 30 seconds). This is already transcoded AC3 audio (to ensure it matches the audio on the main movie(s)).
    When playing back in test mode, the menus play fine. However, on a PS3 (the only BD player I have), it plays a few seconds (up to 10 seconds) of the audio and then loops. The false loop point occurs at different times on each menu.
    The loop point on the menus is 0. The audio length is set to 30 seconds in the project and the menu is set to loop forever.
    Anyone else come across this?
    Thanks

    Seems that this is a bug (rather bad one, actually), but there is a work around of sorts.

  • Success burning Blu-ray on Mac Pro

    Invested in new Sony BWU-300s burner. Installed in lower bay. Used Toast 9 with Blu-ray plug in. Dragged and dropped small 600+ Mb Quick Time HD movie I shot and edited on Mac Pro. Burned to re writable Blu-ray disk. Played back on new Sony BDP-S550. This worked perfectly the first time.

    This is the story I published elsewhere of the sequence of events on October 31st.
    New Sony Blu-ray burner arrived yesterday evening. After purchasing a BD-RE blank disk I proceeded to remove the hard drives in the Early 2008 MacPro. Included in the BWU-300S was all necessary adapter cabling and screws. Mechanically, the tray front plate to the burner needed to be removed. After easily removing the Optical drive support assembly cage I proceeded to locate an available SATA connector on the mother board. Once the SATA cable was routed and connected the power adapter cable was atached. The drive was bolted to the cage and the cage reinserted into the MacPro.
    Next I attempted to play a Blu-ray movie. The disk did mount on the desktop but would not play. Now for the finale. I inserted a blank new rerecordable TDK disk from Frys. I chose a 600+Mb HD video file that was edited in Final Cut and dragged and dropped onto Toast 9 in the video mode. The Blu-ray option was highlighted. I clicked the record button and it began recording. This was a 3 minute + HDV shot Quicktime file. After recording I placed the disk in my new Sony BDP-S550 Blu-ray player. It spun up and played. The result was a 20+ Mb per second beautiful playback of my Swiss Rail video. It met and exceeded my expectations. Aside from the inability for now to play commercial Blu-ray disks (I only tried one disk) I am completely satisfied with the burner and Toast 9 with the Blu-ray add on software. I feel very fortunate for this to work as well as it did. Perhaps the wisest thing is to purchase one re recordable disk in case of problems.
    Hope this helps fill in some blanks.

  • Can you play blu ray on MacBook Pro

    I have a MacBook Pro and I am wondering if I can play Blu ray movies on my MacBook?

    Of course you can...
    I bought this off of amazon.com... Samsung SE-506BB. Took me a while to understand the difference between AB and BB, found that BB is the latest version with a few bugs resolved.
    Get Macgo from http://www.macblurayplayer.com... Download the trail version... I have been playing Blurays using this...
    enjoy
    Thanks & Regards

    Forgot to add... Unlike OWC, Samsung doesnt need an external power supply... Good for carrying around...

  • Blu-Ray audio only through TV internal speakers...not surround.

    Just got a Toshiba 50L1400U. Two issues here......
    1) When the HDMI cable from the Panasonic smart Blu-Ray player is connected to the HDMI port #2 on the TV audio only comes from the internal speakers and not out of the surround. The cable box currently functions fine as did the Blu-Ray HDMI connection with our old Toshiba TV with audio coming from the surround. Suggestions?
    2) Is there a way to turn off the bar at the top of the TV screen to not show when it switches between 2 HD screens while changing stations? Meaning some stations are in 480p with most being in 1080p but the bar shows when swtiching between the 2.
    Thank you for any help.

    I don't believe there's a way to disable that bar.
    As for the sound, you might want to call customer support.

  • Mpeg 2 for Blu-ray audio exports with missing frames at beginning and end.

    Im using a Matrox Axio LE system and the Matrox Media encoder to export an Mpeg 2 for blue-ray. My footage is shot in 1280x720p 59.94 drop frame. I have found that after exporting the file from the encoder and bringing it into Encore CS3 that the audio that was exported is a little shorter than the video. Frames are missing at the end of the file.
    Because of this my video and audio are way out of sync. Has anyone else come across this issue?

    Maybe on the Matrox forums.

  • Adobe Encore Blu-Ray audio out of sync

    Hey,
    So I'm trying to make a compiliation Blu-ray disc that has 3 seperate movies on it.  Each method I've tried as resulted in the audio being out of sync with the video.
    I used dvd shrink to rip a dvd to include just the movie by itself.  I played that.  No out of sync audio issues.
    I then used pgcdemux to demux the dvd files into seperate .m2v and .wav streams.  I played those, and again no audio sync issues.
    I tried importing the seperate .m2v and .wav streams directly into Encore and it seemed to work until I created a timeline and when previewing the disc, the audio was out of sync.  So I went ahead and burned a copy to my blu-ray disc and sure enough the audio sync issues were on there too.
    Then I went through adobe media encoder and tried to re-encode the .m2v file thinking it just wasn't done correctly the first time.  Still the audio is out of sync after importing to Encore.
    I even demuxed the streams, then remuxed them together into an mpg file.  I played that without Encore and no audio issues.  But as soon as I import it and attach it to a timeline, and then preview it, audio is out of sync.
    So I am completely lost here.  I don't quite know what else to do to get rid of the delay in audio.
    Suggestions?  Fixes?

    Well it certainly has been a while!
    So I finally got this to work.  It would seem that I spent so much time trying to rip and convert the dvd to their elementary source files: .m2v and .wav and since I was working with dvds, the files were quite large.
    I actually loaded up a program called DVDFab and ripped each dvd into m2ts fomat.  Those files were, still, quite a few gigabytes a piece, as they are essentially rips of the dvds in a special blu-ray container format.
    They loaded directly into Encore and I didnt even have to use Adobe Media Encoder before loading them.  And this time when I actually built my blu-ray, I received no errors.  So everything output fine.
    thanks for the help!

    Hiya..
    Thought You should know the Panasonic UJ-225 is a 12mm IDE drive and therefore won't work in the latest Unibody MacBook Pro 17" series cause they are using SATA interfaced SuperDrives which are 9mm (same unit as found in the Unibody MBP15".

    The UJ-225 will however work in the older Aluminium MacBook Pro 17".

  • Blu ray on Mac Pro

    Is anyone having consistant results with any combo for burning blu ray?
    Thanks
    John

    Hi,
    I have an LG GGW-H20L Blu-Ray burner connected to my Mac Pro via SATA and the already supplied Molex power supplies.
    To connect it all up, you really have 2 options depending on how you want to use it.
    Option 1 (Bootcamp and OS X Compatible) - Get a SATA Male to SATA Female cable and connect to one of the 4 HDD bays. Then use the already supplied (with the drive) Molex to SATA Power adapter to power the drive with one of the available Molex power supply.
    Option 2 (Only OS X Compatible) - Get a normal SATA cable and connect to one of the 2 extra SATA ports on the motherboard (Behind the front fan, so you will need to take this out to plug it in)(You may also need to get a SATA cable that has a 90 degree bend in one of the connectors to make it fit).
    In my case, I used Option 1 because of the fact that it works with Bootcamp and with the supplied software, I can play back Blu-Ray movies on Vista. I also use both Windows (supplied software) and OS X (with Toast 10 Pro) to burn Blu-Ray and everything works a charm. I did find with Toast 9, that it was a little buggy with Blu-Ray for both Data and Video. Toast 10 Pro is best.
    Anyways, that is my set up. Criticize if you will, but it works a charm for me.

  • H.264 Blue Ray audio question

    I have seen this question brought up before but not answered fully.
    The background:
    i need to make a video that is
    (Video)
    File format: MP4 H.264
    Aspect Ratio: 16 x 9 (1920 x 1080)
    NTSC HD 60i (interlaced)
    Square Pixel
    (Audio)
    48kHz
    24 bit stereo
    When exporting i selected H.264 Blue Ray and set the video accordingly (set the resolution to 1920 x 1080 @ 29.97, upper, square pixle) the problem I’m having is setting up the audio to be 24 bit. From my understanding AC3 only supports 16 bit but what about Dolby Digital can i get 24 bit audio if i use it and what setting do i change to get 24 bit audio at 48 kHz?

    Do you HAVE sound in your comp?  You'd be surprosed by the number of embarassed "no" replies.
    Did you use the AE Render Queue?  You have to specify that you actually want to inclue an audio track in the th Output Module; it isn't automatic.  Most people don't even bother with audio when rendering from AE.
    But here's the big thing: don't use AE to render H.264 files in the first place.  AE stinks at it.  Instead, use Adobe Media Endoder.  You Can open an AE project in AME, then make an H.264 of any comp in the project.
