Apple TV 4 Dynamic Range

There is certainly a problem with the dynamic range on the Apple TV 4.  Watching movies on iTunes, the difference between strong and soft sounds is considerably reduced. This has happened since the Apple TV 4 has been released. Yes, the setting for the dynamic range reduction is on OFF.

As I understand it, the reason is that the Apple TV 4 manages audio decoding. There is no option to send a raw stream to an external decoder as an A / V receiver. Basically, the Apple TV 4 does a bad job at decoding.

There is a full thread on this on MacRumors. Many people are upset.

Apple really needs to fix this. Watch movies on the Apple TV is terrible and I started renting on Vudu movies using my Roku box because of this problem.

  • Wide dynamic range equivalent Canon?

    All, morning

    I've got a shoot tomorrow and images is going to be edited, I know the guy do a very quick turn around time and also doent have LUT packages to use. I also know he usually pulls and like dynamic range color profile (clogged not) on the C100, as it seems ok on the camera, but also gives you plenty of room to play with him at the post. What would you say was the most simular color adjustment on the FS7, I tried loads but all seem to be really flat (as slog 3) or with a little look very burned in them as rec 709 standard.

    I know, it should have read so we could create the exact appearance etc., but it does not so is not an option.

  • Apple makes a Wifi Range Extender

    Did Apple make a WiFi range extender to mate with the time Capsule airport?

    A perfect match would be AirPort Extreme... as a Time Capsule is actually an AirPort Extreme with a built-in hard drive.

    A much slower alternative... performance wise... would be an AirPort Express.

  • Dynamic range of exposure to t3i/600 d

    can someone help me by providing the dynamic range of exposure to t3i. (beach of the slab - exposure range the lowest and the highest in terms of f-stops for a given scene)

    See: http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canoneos600d/12

    Their testing seems to indicate that it is about 5 stops below and 3 & 1 / 3 stops at 4 & 1 / 3 stops above (depending on whether priority has been introduced on.)

    I think that these tests JPEG (I've seen no indication of RAW and they usually go their way to make you know when they do first).  It is much more important in RAW bit depth is likely to do a little better if you RAW.

    If you shooitng anything where you are worried about the dynamic range, then you should probably shooting RAW still.

  • Lack of resolution 4 K P2715Q. Change dynamic range to full

    Hello
    A few weeks ago, I bought the monitor P2715Q and now it's finally here.

    Once I turned on my computer, it automatically recognized the monitor and had 4 k resolution works just by plugging basically.

    After a few minutes, the monitor went to 'power saving mode' (who knows why! because I was surfing on the net) and could not go on.

    I rebooted the computer and the screen was on 4 k resolution as before. Tried to test the resolution on an old game and at first everything was fine. A few minutes after, the screen went black, had to close the game (by pressing a button on console - couldn't see anything). The bone was black also and still... I rebooted the computer! (message on the screen 'power saving mode')

    The second time I restarted, the display came not with the 4 k resolution, now the recommended and maximum resolution is FULLHD (1920 x 1080).

    My first thought was that the driver has been corrupted. I uninstalled the driver through the Device Manager, downloaded the latest drivers for my video card and monitor but nothing!

    I do not see the 4 k resolution

    Data sheet:
    Video card: Gefoce GTX 660; 355.82 driver version (this video card supports 4K resolutions)
    OS: Windows 7 Ultimate edition; 64-bit (SP1)
    The monitor drivers, I tried: DELL_P2715Q-MONITOR_A00 - 00_DRVR_9XV8F.exe; DELL_P2715Q-MONITOR_A00 - 00_DRVR_7XVDJ.exe
    Display port: entry CDM

    Help, please!

    I went to a local store of DELL in order to test my monitor.

    Monitor works fine now.

    The following setting did the trick (on the NVidia settings):

    Output dynamic range: full

    By default, she had limited, change it to lot of my video card could support 4 k @ 60 Hz resolution.

  • DNG at the PSD Dynamic Range

    Hello

    I have a small confusion about DNG and PSD. As far I understand WHAT PSD is equivalent to TIFF and DNG would be RAW. My question is if I had the file > Scripts > battery DNG in photoshop. then do what I'm doing in photoshop. and save the file as PSD. then delete the DNG of my file.

    will now layers (each layer being an any DNG) that have been imported to PSD still retain their dynamic range of DNG?

    Using the load files in the script of layers will change the DNG in regular layers. If you want to maintain the momentum of DNG, you need to use and do it manually. If you do this, you could delete the originals, but I wouldn't. I do not think that the HDR merge will work if your layers are dynamic objects, so it is best to keep the original files.

  • In the first video too dark files / how to set up the dynamic range better?

    Hello!

    To start, here's my basic/setup info:

    I am using Pro 9.2.0 (41) first build 10.0 Win, 64-bit (all updates are in Place to date,) on an i7 - 5930 K with 32 GB of RAM and GTX 770. The source of the layer footage is uncompressed AVI (captured with card HDDP Unigraf UFG-06 via the HDMI cable), 60 frames per second, with about 200 Mbit/s data rate, 12-bit, YUY2 video. I have CUDA and the problem occurs regardless of this.

    So the plot is, I'm running software on PC - 1, send the image of PC - 2 with the acquisition card, which records everything with the plug I wrote earlier. Problem is that when I copy the files to the PC-1 and import for the first, they appear darker than the real source. I tested with a test image of color, that I took a video capture card and then display and (professionally) alt-tab the original test image with the videos on a single screen. VLC video shows almost 1 = 1 with the original, but the first and all exported first lose one or two 'blocks' of dark colors and therefore lack of information.

    It must have something to do with the beach dynamic, is if he has any ideas how to change the beach on the first?

  • Compression of dynamic range to set audio levels of people who speak at training meetings

    I know almost nothing about audio manipulation, but I recently started recording sessions of training for my company. Some people microphones while others do not. The tool that I got is the latest version of Adobe Audition. Is it possible for me to get easily all talk at the same level, so that people don't constantly put their volume up and down while watching?

    Well, you can use the dynamic processing to equalize the levels, but according to the differences between the voices (and some with microphones, others without sounds pretty drastic), you may not be happy with the results.

    You will find the desired effects/Amplitude and Compression/Dynamics treatment effect.  I'm afraid that's not the kind of thing where you can simply call a "Preset" and make it work the first time.  You will need to set the various parameters to control the threshold and the ratio of the effect to achieve the best results.

    For quick and dirty, it might work.  However the other thing to consider is manually adjust the levels on the fly.  Using volume envelopes you can change the levels by ear to adapt each piece to sound as good as possible.  This seems tedious, but once you get your hand, you can probably do the workout together faster than real-time.

  • Increasing the dynamic range

  • How to calculate the limits of dynamic range based on a value

    Hi all, I need to create a function that accepts as parameters:

    Ticket_id NUMBER
    NUMBER fluctuation
    Resolution_time NUMBER

    For each Ticket_id, the function should calculate the Resolution_time who "go time" according to the Fluctuation_ratio.

    For example:

    Ticket_id = 12
    Fluctuation_ratio = 0.5
    Resolution_time = 1.6 (hours)

    The fluctuation_ratio said that the range increased by 0.5 hours each time. So in this example, it must consider lines like these:

    "0-0, 5 h'"
    "0,5- 1 h"
    1 to 1.5 h'
    '1.5 to 2 h'
    ..........

    So the function must return the string: * "1.5 to 2 h."

    If the fluctuation_ratio was 3, the lines had to be:

    "' 0 - 3 hours"
    3 6 h"
    6 9 h'
    9 12 h'
    ..........

    and the function should return the string: *'0 - 3: "*"

    Anyone know how I can achieve this? Is there an analytic function which calculate each time the lower and the upper limit of the range 'hour '?

    Thanks in advance, any help will be appreciated

    Hello

    Here's a function that does what you requested:

    CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION resolution_range
    (      in_fluctuation          IN     NUMBER
    ,      in_resolution        IN     NUMBER
    )
    RETURN     VARCHAR2
    DETERMINISTIC
    IS
         low_val          NUMBER     := in_fluctuation * FLOOR ( in_resolution
                                                / NULLIF (in_fluctuation, 0)
                                         );
         return_txt     VARCHAR2 (4000) := TO_CHAR (low_val)
                              || '-'
                             || TO_CHAR (low_val + in_fluctuation)
                             || 'h';
    BEGIN
         RETURN     return_txt;
    END     resolution_range
    ;
    

    I tested it using this query:

    WITH   test_data     AS
    (
         SELECT  12 AS ticket_id, .5 AS fluctuation_ratio, 1.6 AS resolution_time     FROM dual UNION ALL
         SELECT  13,              3,                     1.6                      FROM dual

    SELECT     test_data.*
    ,     resolution_range (fluctuation_ratio, resolution_time)     AS range
    FROM     test_data

    and got this output:

  • Apple Tv4 dolby surround is broken

    My ATV3 plays perfect audio dolby digital 5.1 House of Cards and the House MD box set I bought on iTunes. I plug the new ATV4 and it does not send a dolby signal to my amp when reading the same content. Instead, he chooses decode the signals dolby into several parts and send it to my amp to the multi-channel PCM with a low dynamic range format. It does not sound very well. If I had known this before buying I would not have picked up. This is unacceptable and I am puzzled as to why Apple would change such a significant feature on this device which is supposed to 'revolutionize' tv.

    I want to say why is so hard to get something good? Apple had a reputation for doing things "in action", but lately I don't know anymore. The ATV3 was a product perfectly with superb audio quality, so why mess with something that has worked well for consumers? I really hope this can be fixed by a firmware/software update soon.

    Welcome to the Apple community.

    Have you tried "Audio" Mode and the "Surround Sound" settings in the settings > audio and video? It may be interesting to try several combinations of these parameters, even though in general this is the 'Surround Sound' setting that causes more problems for users.

    I get stereo PCM stereo, multichannel PCM of auto and DD of surround sound for movies to iTunes

    If you use a sound/receiver system, make sure that you have correctly mapped the input port on your output sound system, if you do not know how to do this, refer to the manual that came with your audio system.

  • Unable to receive calls from Apple Watch, using WIFI AT &amp; T calls, when the iPhone is turned on, turned off or in Airplane Mode.

    I work on this issue and wanted to involve the community.

    I have tests the functionality Apple Watch and have been unable to solve my problems with WIFI call. I use the AT & T and I am connect to the strip of the 5 GHz on my router Xfinity.

    I am able to make/receive calls from my iPad and Mac laptop when iPhone is off / Mode plane; However, this feature does not work on the watch. I can make and receive calls from the watch when the phone is turned on.

    Another problem is that I am not able to send and receive messages (blue or green bubble) of the watch - once again when the phone is turned off or in flight Mode

    I'll copy in 2 portions of the Web site: http://help.apple.com/watch/

    http://help.Apple.com/watch/#/apd0443fb403

    If your Apple Watch is in range of a Wi - Fi network that the iPhone is connected to before, you can always do the following (even if the iPhone is off):

    • Send and receive digital messages Touch
    • Send and receive messages using Messages
    • Make and receive phone calls (if you have active calls, Wi - Fi, and you are within range of a Wi - Fi connected to your iPhone before)
    • Check current weather conditions
    • Track your inventory

    Make calls via Wi - Fi

    If your cellular operator offers Wi - Fi calls, you can use Apple Watch to make and receive calls over Wi - Fi instead of cellular network - even when your pair iPhone isn't with you or is disabled. Apple Watch comes to be in range of a Wi - Fi network that is connected to your iPhone in the past.

    To see if your carrier offers Wi - Fi calls, see the article Apple Support phone with Wi-Fi calls, then enable the calls on your iPhone and Apple Watch Wi - Fi.

    Note: You can make emergency calls via Wi - Fi, but when possible, use rather iPhone over a cellular connection - your location information will be more specific.

    Enable on iPhone Wi - Fi calls. On iPhone, go to settings > phone and turn on Wi - Fi calling and application to other devices.

    Enable calls on Apple Watch Wi - Fi. Open the Apple Watch app on iPhone, tap My Watch, tap phone, then turn on Wi - Fi calls. If you do not see the parameter, make sure that you have activated calls on iPhone Wi - Fi.

    Answer please if you are able to perform any of these functions! And any troubleshooting you can think!

    Hello

    These features are not available because Apple Watch cannot connect to a network of GHz Wi - Fi 5.

    If your watch is not connected to your iPhone via Bluetooth, but lying in a 2.4 GHz Wi - Fi network your iPhone plugged in before, the watch can connect to this network and you can continue to use certain features, including Wi - Fi calls (when it is supported by your operator, you already have in place).

  • Dependence of Apple Watch

    Hi all!

    Please keep w / me as this is my first day in the community & my first question :)

    im confused about the dependence of the Apple Watch. I have my phone on my body so that it works?

    If so, I don't understand the "freedom" of lugging the devices around.

    to please advise because I almost bought one then became confused re: this.

    Thank you

    Hello

    To use all the features of Apple Watch, it must be brought to your iPhone Bluetooth (for optimal performance, you must allow both Bluetooth and Wi - Fi enabled at all times on your iPhone).

    Normal Bluetooth range is about 10 meters/33 feet. Actual range varies in practice (because of wireless interference), but you definitely need to have your iPhone on or just around you (scope of arms, for example) all the time for the devices to maintain their connection.

    Apple Watch also still offers a number of features, even when the pair iPhone is not included:

    -Play music from a playlist synchronized on Apple Watch.

    -Use the watch for the time, as well as alarms, stopwatches and the clock.

    -Keep track of your activity (Stand, Move, exercise) with the application of the activity.

    -Follow the training with the application of the workout.

    -View photos of the synced photo album.

    -Use Apple pay for shopping.

    If your Apple Watch is within range of a wireless (2.4 GHz) network that your iPhone is connected to before, but your iPhone and the shows are not currently connected, the watch can connect to the network and you can also still:

    -Send and receive messages using iMessage.

    -Send and receive digital messages Touch.

    -Use Siri.

    -Make and receive calls if you have calls enabled Wi - Fi (depending on your operator).
