Video and audio output, formats and conversion.

I'm thinking of buying an iPad. After checking the tech. info. it seems the iPad does not put out full HD and surround sound? I use HDMI and fiber optical sound. Maybe an idea for the next iPad genration: onboard 5.1(as the acer aspire 8943).

You are comparing the iPad to an i7 powered laptop? Why don't you just buy an MacBook Air or MacBook Pro?

  • Digital audio output format

    I'm new to fios and I want to connect my QIP7216 to a stereo dac.  My dac only accepts 2 channel PCM format.  When I set the QIP7216 to STEREO mode, I thought I would get PCM output on the optical output.  This doesn't seem to work and any change to the audio format doesn't seem to matter.  It appears the optical output always is in dolby format.  Does anyone know a way around this?  Is there firmware out there that will make this work?  I don't want to use the analog audio outs on the QIP7216 since I have gone to all the trouble of having a high quality dac.  Help please.

    You can force the STB to always output in L-PCM format ...
    - With the STB and TV turned ON, on the front panel press in sequence at about 1/2 second intervals: Power, Select, Menu
    - In about 15 seconds, a menu will appear on screen titled "User Settings".  Using the arrow keys on the front panel or remote,  move down 3 lines to "Additional HDMI Settings" and press the right arrow key.
    - Using the arrow keys, move down two lines to "Audio Output" and press the right arrow key until it reads "L-PCM"
    - Using the arrow keys, move down one line to "Return to Main Menu" and press the right arrow key
    - Power cycle the STB off using the Power button on the front panel.
    Your STB should now be outputting L-PCM.

  • Audio MIDI Setup won't let me change Audio Output format

    When I try to change the format to 48000.0 Hz it automatically changes it back to 44100.0 Hz, which in turn changes the Audio Input format to the same. I am also using an iMic Audio Interface, if that helps at all.

    Here's the error message:
    Audio MIDI Setup couldn’t open the MIDI Server so you can’t view or edit your MIDI configurations.
    If you recently installed a new MIDI driver, try uninstalling it and then open Audio MIDI Setup again.  If Audio MIDI Setup works correctly after that, contact the driver’s manufacturer for further support.

  • Optical Audio output format?

    The Optical Audio out from my Apple TV is not being seen by my stereo. My theory is that my stereo Dolby Digital converter is old (circa ~1997? Yamaha DDP-2) and may only accept Dolby Digital AC-3. Is the Apple TV optical audio format sending a different signal? The audio is coming through HDMI to my TV just fine.

    I'm having the same problem. I have an HDMI hooked directly from Apple TV to the TV and optical audio to my receiver/dvd (sony home theater system dav-fx80). I do see a red light at the end.
    .... There's only a sound if the TV is turned on, meaning HDMI connection is working, but if I turn off the TV, audio is cut off, meaning my optical audio is not working.
    I think you have a different problem.
    In reality HDMI is probably working too well - it's probably sensing TV is off and then rather stupidly going to sleep when you're trying to play audio over optical. Is it only when TV powered off or in standby too? I need to test this but my AppleTV2 needs moving to the room with hi-fi so I can check if i have the same issue - I'm sure it used to work with TV off, AppleTV 1 does (at least in standby mode).

  • How can I delete the video and keep the Audio  in a few frames using Imovie 11

    How can I delete the video and keep the Audio  in a few frames using Imovie 11?

    I've met the problem too before. but i solved it with  Audio Converter Mac instead of iMovie. If you have similar situation that just want to keep audio but not video, and if your file format is not workable in iMovie, you can use the Audio Converter for help too. it can easily help to extract audio soundtrack from any video format. Or if you need to convert one audio format to another, it is a good choice too, because it supports many common audio output formats.

  • How do I remove the video and keep the audio in iMovie?

    How do I keep the audio and delete the video? I've seen several answers saying to go to "advanced" but I don't see where that is. I went to preferences and checked show advanced setings but I still can't figure it out. Please help! (: By the way I'm on a MAc computer.

  • Digital audio output - how?

    I am new to Macs and the owner of a mini. I'm about to replace my stereo amp with an AV receiver so that I can use the mini as a media centre with a home theatre system. I want an AV receiver with a digital input as the mini has a combined analogue & digital output. My question is what type of digital lead to I need, are they standard and how do I tell the mini to provide a digital signal to the combined output socket rather than an analogue one? Or is it clever enough to work out what type of cable is attached?
    Thanks in advance
    Paul

    I have my Mini connected to my A/v receiver using a digital TOSLINK to mini TOSLINK cable. It should have a mini jack connector on one end for the mini and a squareish connector on the other end for the receiver. The audio output jack on the Mac Mini can output both analog audio and digital. The digital input on my receiver uses a ADAT lightpipe connection on the other end, that looks like a square. These are standard cables and should not be that expensive. Here's an example of the type of cable:
    http://www.amazon.com/6ft-Toslink-Mini-Cable/dp/B000FMXKC8
    You will also need to make some setting adjustments in you sound control panel and in the DVD player to select the correct digital audio output format. Good luck.

  • Adobe Captivate 7 Project How to make Rollover cations, audio, and video work in HTML format?

    Adobe Captivate 7 Project How to make Rollover cations, audio, and video work in HTML format?

    Honestly, I don't even know why this is an option. The conversion to Flash is completely unusable.
    I have exported some things to Flash, and since I program in Flash all the time I was able to manipulate to work to some degree. Most text captions are built with multiple elements and completely fall apart.
    Sorry, I can't be of more help.

  • Video and audio formats for iPad

    Hey, guys.. I've tried searching this up in the forum but didn't have any luck with that..
    I can't seem to upload my movies and songs into iPad... I tried converting my movie into .mov and .mp4. They can both be imported into my iTunes library but when I drag it to the iPad tab it says it cannot be copied because it cannot be played on the iPad. And some of my albums just can't be imported.
    May I know the preferred format for my movies and my songs? And what could be the problem with my importing..
    Thanks heaps.

    Here are the spec for video and audio for the iPad:
    H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format

  • Premiere Pro 2.0 compatable video and audio formats

    I am working on a project that uses old vintage newreel clips and such from the 50's and 60's, they are available for download in several different formats.
    I have downloaded many of them but when i import them into my timeline, there is no audio for these clips. They work when i just play them out of premiere. What are the supported formats for premiere pro 2 both in video and audio?
    I have made several movies but haven't come upon this issue before.

  • Best video and audio converter that contains most format at mac app store

    Dear All;
    What is the best video and audio converter that contains most format at mac app store?Can you suggest any on Mac App Store?
    Regards;

    I use Wondreshare's dvd ripper. I travel for a living, so the $60 or $70 I spent to rip my entire dvd collection onto an external hard drive that I can take anywhere I go. Their software isn't available in the App Store to my knowledge but I have had it for a couple years now without any trouble.

  • Firefox Hello won't allow me to select which video and audio devices to use when I start a conversation instance.

    As per the title. If I ACCEPT a call, or start a conversation I have no choice about which devices are used (video and audio), Firefox seems to just arbitraily decide which to use without asking me. If I make a call or join a conversation it's different, I get a dialog asking me which devices I want to use. Similarly, there's no options to edit the conversation settings to select the device.
    I tried just entering the conversation URL into a browser tab, which does give me the dialog, but I cannot join the conversation as it says there are already two people in it.
    How to fix this?
    Cheers

    Update: This just seems to be an oversight. Devs, You have to realize that conversation starters and call answerers still need the ability to select their devices. I know WebRTC and Hello is all still beta, but this seems to be something that should have been realized from the very start.
    Are you also aware that the code examples on MDC don't actually work in Firefox, but do work in Chrome? Again, I know you say the API docs are in need of update, but for example source to actually nor work on the browser you develop and it working on a browser you do not seems a trifle ridiculous. If you want this technology to catch on, you've got to be more diligent.

  • How to create audio, video, and photo in a list view format

    I'm creating a webstire entirely out of Flash using CS5 for a paranormal investigation group. In the past, using a Website Tonight template from GoDaddy had placed either an audio, video, or photograph with text above each item discusssing the content. Now, they would like this type of feature in the Flash website. I'm new to Flash, but seasoned in many other Adobe products ... not that this helps ... much!
    Anyways, the website is looking great aside from this one set back, so I'm hoping someone out there can give me a helping hand. I'm willing to purchase a third-party template, but to incorporate that into our Flash file, seems daunting.
    AUDIO
    We need to load an audio that can play, pause, rewind, loop, and stop at the very least.
    Then have text describing the situation around the audio.
    repeat ... and so forth ...
    New audio will be added to this section every week or so, and all the components need to scroll as the screen fills up. When adding new audio, we would add the new audio and text to the top of the list, pushing the remaining audio files down.
    VIDEO
    We need to load video footage with all the button features needed to play, stop, etc. I have found adding video quite easy, but to get the player to move with the text as the frame it is contained in scrolls down is another story. How do you do that?
    Text describing the video contents will be above or next to the video player.
    repeat ... and so forth ...
    New video will be added to this section every week or so, and all the  components need to scroll as the screen fills up. When adding new video,  we would add the new video and text to the top of the list, pushing the  remaining video files down.
    PHOTOS
    ditto as others
    Thanks!!

    As mentioned, building a custom application can be tricky, especially if you are not very familiar with Flash.
    So you want a Web page with an audio player and selection list at the top (or where ever) and then a video player section, along with its playlist, and then at the bottom of the page you want a photo display area... Is that correct? and the scrolling you mentioned is because the page needs to be long enough to hold all 3 components? is that right?
    Have you instead considered just using 3 different frames, one frame for each component and simple buttons to jump from audio to video to photos?
    Or, skip the scrolling in Flash and let the html/css take care of the scrolling, just like any normal Web page. Just make the .swf as long as needed to display all your content.
    Since you are new at this type of a project, I'd suggest you start small, take the project in steps... just build the audio player... then the video player... then your photo slide show..
    Only after you have 3 working moduals would you but them together into one .fla
    And yes, learn to use xml for ALL the data, audio, video, and photos.... very easy to update without having to re-publish any of the Flash.
    Here is a good source for tutorials:
    http://www.gotoandlearn.com/index.php?currentpage=11
    Flash and xml
    http://www.gotoandlearn.com/index.php?currentpage=13
    learn to use NetStream to play your videos, much more versatile and powerful than using the FLVPlayback component
    But learning how to incorporate xml into your Flash project is very important in a project like this. And then broken down into 3 components, it's really not that tough to build a project like this.
