Ableton Forum

I just installed "MatroskaSplitter.exe" which is mentioned here: https://help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/artic ... sing-Video

And now it works on Win Live11

Interesting info from https://help.ableton.com/hc/en-us/articles/209773125-Using-Video for Live11+Windows:

Important: Haali Media Splitter is the only third-party codec that currently functions with Live 11 on Windows . To avoid video issues in Live 11, uninstall any other previously installed ...

I'm on PC. I never used PhotoJPEG, it seems to be far less common than the very classical H264.

Do you know why H264 doesn't work on Live 11?

Is there a way to make it work?

Hi,

I tried to drag and drop a few videos into Ableton 11, but either the video preview is a black square and only the sound track is available in Live, or nothing is available and we can see the error message "Could not be read. It may be corrupt or not licensed" . However the .mp4 is fully ...

Reopening this topic with some interesting news!

I am using music software since 20 years at least. And for the first time today, I found "Realtime priority" to do a big difference on Live!

Context:

* computer which is a bit old
* external USB soundcard with latency/buffer size set to a low ...

The problem is that the looper can't compensate for the soundcard latency when monitoring is set to IN/Auto, and as you see, there is no audio to the looper when monitoring is set to OFF... So, you could try to lower your soundcard latency a bit more if possible. The issue will still be there but ...

This post describes exactly the same issue :

Does a monitored signal have latency? Yes - any signal in a computer based environment is going to have a certain amount of latency.


I'm not speaking about the direct monitoring latency... I'm speaking about something else (see my first message).

Also when using the "Looper" device, you have ...

When should the monitor be set to "Off"?
If you're using direct monitoring . Direct monitoring is a function of certain audio interfaces that allows you to monitor directly through the interface in order to reduce latency.


Yes for sure, my hardware external audio interface has direct monitoring ...

I have read a few pages of this topic, but I want to be sure to not miss something:

Is there a trick (option in a hidden config file?) to disable the AVX2 performance improvements, and make Live 12 run on a Intel i5 less than 5th generation? :)

Or one specific Live12 beta version that supports ...

Hi,

(1) With Live 11 or below, it is well known that recording when Monitor is set to IN or AUTO implies that the recording will contain unwanted latency. (See for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PT5mD2Zd7F8).
So the solution is 1) either set Monitor to OFF when recording or 2) keep ...

Thanks

Any update on this about Ableton Live 12?

Nope.

By "Nope", do you mean : "there is no information about this" or "I know that Wasapi is not a supported audio backend in Live 12" ?

Thanks !

No, I gave a counter example


Thanks for your answer.

I don't exactly get it... (maybe also because it's too late and too tired)

Can you give your counter example scenario as a step-by-step reproducible example?
Example:
1 Start with a blank project
2 Add an Audio track with ...
3 Add an ...

Example scenario


Excuse me if I'm wrong, but you just gave one more example showing that the button "Keep Latency" should be better ... OFF than ON :wink:
(I agree with you, it seems to be far better!)

Now my question was: is there one single scenario for which "Keep Latency" would be better ...
