What is Little Endian / Big Endian in Sound settings for Apple Intermediate
Hi.
In Final Cut Express, I am trying to splice together multiple video clips, combining footage from:
1) HDV camcorder imported into iMovie 08 as 960 x 540 (the "lower resolution" option from iMovie '08 import), 16-bit @ 48 KHz (Big Endian), 25 FPS
2) AVI files (DiVX 512 x 384, MP3 at 44.1 KHz, 23.98 FPS)
3) Canon Camera "movie" files (Apple OpenDML JPEG 640 x 480, 16-bit Little Endian, Mono @ 44.1 KHz, 30 FPS)
Questions
1) What is this little endian / big endian thing?
2) What is the best codec for me to edit in? My targets are NTSC DVD and also a HD version served via iPod connected to HDTV.
I am not sure what codec to convert everything to, so that I can edit without having to RENDER every time I do something. I tried to export using QuickTime Pro to convert to Apple Intermediate Codec but am not sure about the option for "Little Endian" (I am using an Intel Mac; I assume I do NOT use little endian? Can someone help clarify?)
Many thanks!!!
1. They're compression formats. Different codec use different compression schemes.
2. You should convert your material to QuickTime using the appropriate DV codec and frame rate.
None of your material is HD. Some of it is low resolution, lower than even DV. There is no good way to make this material HD.

With certain movies I have downloaded digitally through Itunes or certain movies through Netflix played through Apple TV, I am only getting partial sound. I am missing one or more sound tracks. Am I missing something in the settings for Apple TV?
Are you using a stereo receiver or surround sound system for the audio by chance. What you are describing sounds like a receiver that is not setup correctly, or does not have the speakers connected to it correctly to support Dolby surround, 5.1 or 7.1. Which is why it is only happening on some content. It would only be on the ones that are encoded to support Dolby audio.

Little- och big-endian problem?
Hi!
I'm writing a program which will run on Windows, Mac OS and Linux. The program will be used for opening binary files created by a program in Windows.
Because the files are created in Windows i guess they will be created according to the little-endian system. The program that will open them will read them in to the memory as a byte array.
My question is: will there be a problem to get the right information from these files if I open them on a big-endian system? (There are no magic numbers in the binary file which indicates the used endian system)
LinaI have to admit that I get the meaning of big/little endian confused.
As JosAH says; Big endian means the big end is first,
NOT that the big value is at the end.And I have to admit that I find that whole big/little-endian jargon quite confusing
too, I mean the most significant byte is stored at the lowest address and we
call it big-endian ... If the number is stored 'backwards' we call it little endian.
In the old days when computers were made of wood and ran on steam, we
used to call it 'low-byte-first' and 'high-byte-first'. Sigh ... those were the days ;-)
kind regards,

Oracle guids little endian, big endian problem
hello every one,
I am having an strange issue. I am developing a .net app against an Oracle DB. Well, when I insert a guid into a raw oracle changes the order of the byte array.
In VB.net I see (with all the representations of guids, with or without {,- or whatever):
ac6d5c4f-542e-4fc8-b8b6-f53821811be3
In Oracle I see (tested with toad and sql tools):
4F5C6DAC2E54C84FB8B6F53821811BE3
It goes ok with the rightests numbers but fails the the leftests.
Any suggestion?I have to admit that I get the meaning of big/little endian confused.

Little endian & big endian format system
Hi,
I have code which works fine for Little endian format system, can somebady please tell how to get data from big endian format system.
or is sap has setting where i can turn on and than run my code on that system.
Thanks,

OPEN DATASET dset IN LEGACY TEXT MODE [(BIG|LITTLE) ENDIAN] [CODE PAGE cp]
Effect
Data is read or written in a form which is compatible to BINARY MODE in Releases <= 4.6. This addition is primarily used to convert a file into the code page format specified already when it is opened. At runtime, the system uses the format of the system code page of the application server. The system saves the file then again in the code page specified. This procedure is important if data is exchanged between systems using different code pages. For more information, see READ DATASET and TRANSFER.
Notes
on BIG ENDIAN, LITTLE ENDIAN
These additions specify the byte sequence in which to store numbers (ABAP types I, F, and INT2) in the file.
These additions may only be used in combination with the additions IN LEGACY BINARY MODE and IN LEGACY TEXT MODE. If these are not specified, the system assumes that the byte sequence determined by the hardware of the application server is used in the file.
If the byte sequence specified differs from that determined by the hardware of the application server, READDATASET and TRANSFER make the corresponding conversions.
These additions replace the language element TRANSLATE ... NUMBER FORMAT ... which must not be used in Unicode programs.
on CODE PAGE cp
This addition specifies the code page which is used to represent texts in the file.
This addition may only be used in combination with the additions IN LEGACY BINARY MODE and IN LEGACY TEXT MODE. If this addition is not specified, the system uses the code page defined by the text environment current at the time a READ or TRANSFER command is executed (see SET LOCALE LANGUAGE).
This addition replaces the language element TRANSLATE ... CODE PAGE ... which must not be used in Unicode programs.

How to judge the platform is little or big endian ?
I have a c code, but anybody has a Java code?
Thanks.
#include <stdio.h>
//little-endian or big-endian
bool IsLittleEndian()
int i = 1;
char* p = (char*)&i;
return *p;
int main()
if(IsLittleEndian())
printf("LittleEndian\n");
else
printf("BigEndian\n");
return 0;

Auto detecting the correct Endian format of a data file
Suppose you are developing a Windows application that imports Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectra. High resolution NMR files are generally recorded in Silicon or Sun Workstations but recently Windows or Linux based spectrometers are emerging as practical substitutes. It turns out that you will need to know in advance the Endian format of the file to parse correctly all the information. Here are some practical guidelines you can follow to decipher the correct Endianness of a data file:
Typically, the binary file includes a header with the information about the Endian format.
If the header is not present , you can guess the Endian format if you know the native format of the computer from which the file comes from. For instance, if the file was created in a Sun Workstation, the Endian format will most likely be Big-Endian.
If none of the above points apply, the Endian format can be determined by trial and error. For example, if after reading the file assuming one format, the spectrum does not make sense, you will know that you have to use the other format.
If the data points in the file are in floating point format (double), then the _isnan() function can be of some help to determine the Endian format. For example:
double dValue;
FILE* fp;
fread(&nValue, 1, sizeof(double), fp);
bool bByteSwap = _isnan(dValue) ? true : falseNote that this method does only guarantee that the byte swap operation is required if _isnan() returns a nonzero value (TRUE); if it returns 0 (FALSE), then it is not possible to know the correct Endian format without further information. -
What if I want to recommend a new idea for apple?
I have come up with an idea for apple, but I can not find a place to submit it, it might be a little far-fetched but I am very optimistic.
Apple states they do not accept or consider unsolicited ideas. http://www.apple.com/legal/intellectual-property/policies/ideas.html

Tweaking sound settings for iMovie HD 6
I just upgraded to the new Intel Core machine and iLife 06. I opened and edited a movie first created in iMovie 5. It upgraded fine and looks fine. When I export to Quicktime (also upgraded to 7 pro) and choose Web Streaming (as I did under iMovie 5), the sound is significantly lower in quality and sounds wavy and full of reverb. I tried to match movie properties from an old movie created with this preset export in iMovie 5 but still could not get the sound right.
Anyone have any tips on how to set Expert Settings to get a similar sized movie (web streaming) but with full quality stereo sound??
Thanks!

What do you think about the Belkin - Snap Shield for Apple iPad 2 - Clear protector?
well i've just bought it, does somebody have it for some time??? what can you tell me about it
I think Apple has really screwed this UP! You are correct,
they should be posting a fix for the umpteen gillion of us who spent hundreds of dollars on their product and then they give us a crappy "upgrade" that renders the very expensive product USELESS!!! This is extremely frustrating. I should not have to be a rocket scientist

I need help some one please help me
Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.
If these fail, it is likely a hardware problem. You can call Apple to see about repair or look it up online:

Why can't I get sound notification for my email anymore?
I am no longer able to get sound notification for send or receive email nor can I get sound notification for incoming phone calls. What happened and is there a correction?
Before doing anything else, is your ringer switch in silent mode? I'd try toggling the switch a few times to make sure it's working. The phone should vibrate when you move the switch from on to silent. If it doesn't then the switch may be broken.
Next make sure the volume for notifications is not off. Check the Sound settings for this. Changing the volume there should also cause your (phone) ringtone to play. If it doesn't then there is something very wrong.
The only other thing I can suggest if the above doesn't help is doing a hard reset of the phone. Hold power and home buttons down until screen goes dark and Apple icon appears, then let go.
If that doesn't work, then the only other thing you can try is doing a Backup and then a Restore in iTunes. If that doesn't work, then there's a hardware problem. -
My 5s is stuck on one sound notification for mail.
My iPhone 5S will not let me change the sound settings for ring tone/text tone/new mail/etc. When I go to Settings--Sounds and make choices, they show on the screen, but the old/original sounds are still what the phone emits when in use. I did update to 8 (or whatever it's called) and things don't work like they used to. But these sound notifications are my basic problem. Any suggestions? Thanks, Ron
