Intensity

Whats the route from the hdmi out? wheres the audio being fed to ?

If your projector is processing the picture it will delay it slightly like LCD tv’s do.. so the audio isn’t off the picture is.

Hi,

If you’re not using audio out of Intensity, i.e. using the Mac’s internal audio output, there will be a sync issue as well due to the different clocks being used.

Audio is coming out of the Mac (optical into an outboard DAC) and the video signal is coming out of the Intensity’s HDMI port.

So you say I have to get the Intensity Pro and use the audio out from that? What good is this thing without proper audio sync?

But when I plug the projector into the graphics card (the dual DVI card that comes with the MacPro 8 core – no problema! No issue with sync on the projected image. So it isn’t about projectors and LCDs.

Now what?

I’d make double sure its a clock issue before spending more $$…

we bought a component to hdmi converter to use to capture component via intensity.. no go..

you could always try and work out the slip and slip the audio ?

You can’t mean what I think you mean. Then I’d have to slip out a whole (feature lengths) project? And then if I output – everything would be out of sync.

You can change the audio sync in FCP – that doesn’t effect the Intensity card, only any image coming out of the graphic cards dual DVI outputs.

I can’t imagine this to be an Intensity bug – I mean, what would you use the card for? MOS editing? Maybe something wrong with this card, or I somehow crewed up the software installation, or something. We’ll find out! Hopefull it’s something dumb that I did.

yes I am.

you have a kona 2? use that.

it’s a feature? then you should have a budget good enough to get a audio sync slipper like alot of AV guys use on their av amps.

I believe your issue has been addressed. the clock for the intensity audio out is not the same as the audio out internally on the mac.

you have a kona 2? use that.

Use it for what? I’m using the MacPro as my principle rig. The Kona 2 doesn’t work in that machine.

it’s a feature? then you should have a budget good enough to get a audio sync slipper like alot of AV guys use on their av amps.

Uh, what kind of attitude is that? And I have no idea what you’re talking about – “audio sync slipper a lot of AV guy use on their av amps?” The reason there are forums is to get information, not a smart assed answer.

I believe your issue has been addressed.

Is that right? And just who are you sweetness? Why the snotty attitude?

It’s far from snotty,concise maybe.Just trying to give an answer from what I would try . I was trying to be helpful.

“And I have no idea what you’re talking about”
Try av forums.. google?

>As in another thread also. BM rep explained its a clock issue.

? And just who are you sweetness?
One of the few that replied to your question?

Why don’t you just get the audio from the Intensity?

[Dale Launer]

Penello – you explain your suggesting by sending me to a general website where I’m supposed to filter through hundreds of pages about – AV guys slipping sync? Do me a favor, don’t respond to my posts. You’re not helpful and you’re attitude is rude.

To the question “why not use the audio out of the Intensity card” – to use the audio I’d have to plug the HDMI cable from the card into a TV and use those speakers (or if it has an audio out – I’d have to cable that to an amp – a rather inelegant setup. Also, I’d rather use my own DAC via the Toslink connection than the internal one in the Intensity. Sounds better.
