To compress audio you will need the QuickTime Pro Player from Apple Computer, or any other application which supports QuickTime export in order to encode audio. If you are using QuickTime Pro please follow the instructions found below. If you are using another application please follow the instructions that accompany the software.

Open an uncompressed audio file with QuickTime Pro. Go to the File menu and select Export... Export As should be set to either Sound to AIFF or Movie to QuickTime Movie. Press the Options... button. If you have chosen Sound to AIFF as your export type then skip to step 6. If you have chosen Movie to QuickTime Movie then you need to press Settings... in the Sound area. Set the Compressor to "QDesign Music Codec". Set the desired Rate, and Use. The Size must remain "16 bit". Press the Options.. See similar questions...

beaTunes is using QuickTime/CoreAudio. Unfortunately QuickTime only allows the playback of protected files, but not transcoding. This means that QuickTime does not allow the extraction of the raw audio data, which is needed for analysis. In fact, not even the playback of protected movie files necessarily works. If QuickTime allowed the extraction of the raw audio data, getting around the protection would be trivial. See similar questions...

No, MPEG-2 files containing AC3 audio cannot be played back with the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component. See similar questions...

The QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component supports the playback of MPEG-2 files (.mpg, .mpeg, .vob, .vro, .m2v, .m2a, and .m2s) that contain MPEG audio layers I or II. The MPEG-2 Playback Component does not support audio playback for MPEG-2 files containing PCM, DTS or AC3 audio. No, Apple has updated the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component for Mac OS X to be compatible with Intel-based Macs. See similar questions...

Java Sound can begin playing as soon as it starts getting audio samples or MIDI requests -- there is no need to wait for the entire audio file to be loaded into memory. Java Sound can be used in conjunction with the Java Media Framework API software (JMF) to stream audio data over the network. Third parties can also use Java Sound to present audio within their own streaming framework. See similar questions...

Yeah, sure! Just use the "Make CAB only" button. However you can only currently split folders containing multiple files in this manner, not single files. You also cannot use encryption or generate a BAT while doing this. Most of the time, yes. However, there is no long filename support for files split using both compression and the BAT generator at the same time. See similar questions...

Remember that EAC does not supply a MP3 codec; you may use the LAME, Gogo or the BladeEnc DLL's (or FAAC Dll for AAC compression) by copying them into the same directory where you copied EAC. Then you will be able to choose the installed DLLs in the compression option dialog box. Of course the quality of MP3 is based on the encoder and the bitrate you use. See similar questions...

There is a problem with the default QuickTime settings on some Windows machines. The fix involves adjusting the size of the sound buffers, which is not as scary as it sounds. There are easy-to-follow directions on how to fix this problem on the Apple QuickTime Support Site. This article says it's for QuickTime 3 on Windows 95 and NT, but we've also found it to be useful for newer versions of QuickTime and for Windows 2000. See similar questions...

The movie files are multi-track movies where each audio track may contain a different number of audio channels. This can cause QuickTime problems when opening (converting) the movies in some programs. To work around this, you can use the included Split Movie Tracks or Convert To AIFF utilities to create movies with just one audio track before editing. See similar questions...

QuickTime is one of several technologies that allow video to be streamed on the Internet. QuickTime has had the capability to stream video since version 3. QuickTime can also be used to play .au sound files See similar questions...

NT Server ships with a utility called JETPACK.EXE which can be used to compact DHCP and WINS databases. To compact your DHCP database perform the following: Note: While you stop the DHCP service, clients using DHCP to receive a TCP/IP address will not be able to start this protocol and may hang. Jetpack actually compacts DHCP.MDB into TMP.MDB, then deletes DHCP.MDB and copies TMP.MDB to DHCP.MDB! Simple :-) For more information, see Knowledge base article Q145881 at http://support.microsoft.

Real Audio is now the most common streaming media format and although somewhat proprietary, free players are available for both Windows and Macintosh platforms. For cable modem and DSL users, we have also included MP3 versions of the program to deliver increased fidelity. MP3 players are widely available at no charge. See similar questions...

kX Audio driver enables 'What you hear' recording mode by default. In order to turn it off, open the kX Mixer, and set Wave and Synth recording levels to the appropriate values on the 'Recording' page. See similar questions...

This is best achieved with vbox using format 6 (uLaw - must be compiled in). You can then easily play the messages using: cat xxx /dev/audio where xxx is the message-file. The standard tool for converting all sound formats is SOX. SOX is available as source code for both UNIX and DOS. You can get it at: See similar questions...

We chose to use Flash video (FLV) because it is the “safest” video platform meaning that the most people can view the videos without having to download extra software. Flash video is used by all the major video sharing sites (YouTube, MetaCafe, Revver and DailyMotion to name a few) and only requires the Flash Plug-in to play. Windows Media (WMV) files only play on PCs running Microsoft Windows and many people don’t have QuickTime installed. See similar questions...

Some movies may be save-disabled by the owner of the content, which prevents anyone from saving them. See similar questions...

a matter of fact you can! You can use LADSPA to "compress" the audio (some people call it normalize), kind of like how the radio stations do it. This pretty much raises all sound to the same level. Handy for, when example, you can't play music too loud and don't want to miss the softer sounds. It's different from applications like mp3gain because this method dynamically alters the output sound rather than limiting music / audio by its analyzed content. See similar questions...

ObjectOutputStream produces an OutputStream. If your zip object extends the OutputStream class, there is no problem compressing it. See similar questions...
