You may want to connect the P3/A23 units into separate wall sockets or use a good quality power strip if not already doing so.Īs far as which inputs on the P3, I would suggest trying the Aux-Phono jack. I assume that the power cable is three-pronged and is connected to a like wall outlet with a known good ground connection. Typically, a hum would indicate a grounding issue. You will not be able to eliminate the delay entirely. So, with the above you can see that audio does not simply move from the source to the destination without a lot more going on. The AX decrypts the stream, decodes it, and outputs it in either a digital PCM stream or analog (using a built-in DAC) to its multi-purpose analog/optical-digital audio port. The stream is buffered for approximately 2 seconds before the stream is sent. That stream is compressed using Apple's Lossless Compression (via a QuickTime codec), encrypted with 128-bit AES, and then, streamed (via AirPlay) to the AX. When either app plays back standard audio content (AAC, MP3, audiobooks, Internet music streams, etc., it decompresses those file formats and creates what's essentially a raw, uncompressed audio stream. Of course, it can also get input from other sources as you know, like Rogue Amoeba's Airfoil.įor streaming, iTunes or Airfoil does most of the work. To help understand why there are going to be delays, let's take a high-level look 'behind the scenes' on how AirPlay works:įor the AirPort Express (AX,) audio input is primarily provided by iTunes.

In this scenario, an audio stream (over AirPlay) will first go from your iMac to the AirPort Extreme, and then, to the AirPort Express. With AirPlay (or Bluetooth) there will always be some form of delay or latency with streaming audio. Fixed.I want to be able to direct the output of my 'Late 2014' 5K iMac (10.11.6) to my (ParaSound P3/A23) stereo system using AirFoil 5 with Airport Extreme > Airport Express. (Apple-G to manually hide and show the Controller Window still works.)New Preferences Option for 'Full Screen Mode': Hide Controller Window when Mouse is inactive.App did not launch on OS 10.3.0 - 10.3.8. Moving the Mouse will make them re-appear. Fixed.Combine Movies: Can now set IN and OUT points of Source Movies.Full Screen Mode: Not moving the mouse will cause the Controller Window and the MouseCursor to disappear. Fixed.Full Screen Mode: When running on IntelMacs, the MouseCursor was not invisible, but a black square.

Fixed.Trying to crop a movie with a Text Track will no longer cause a 'Fatal Error'.On IntelMacs the Volume could not be changed with the ArrowUp/ArrowDown Keys. It appeared to be not possible to enter more than one letter. Static Text Inserter: When text was entered into the appropriate EditField, the text was selected immediately.

QT Sync is a slick program that needs less storage than the average program in the section Audio & Video.
