Hey, the G5 has a nice opt out and I can easily copy something to MD BUT is the following possible?

1. route JUST iTunes or another app to that opt. out so I can watch a movie while copying?

2. make iTunes (or whatever soft plays my music) to send a "new track code" to the MD so I won't have to cut the large 1 track on the MD by hand later on?

Appreciate any ideas.

Maybe Detour will let you do it?

#1: Rogue Amoeba's Detour is exactly for routing specific apps to specific outputs.

However, it will only work if the optical and analog outputs are considered separate outputs. If they are designed to always output the same thing, then you can't route to them separately and you'll need to get some kind of secondary audio device.

As for #2, I highly doubt it. (I would love this, too.)

Thanx guys, Detour is a solution! Works for me.

I know that this second problem is really easy to manage. It is no problem to get the protocols sony uses (a friend of mine once built hardware to kill the copy protection bits, unfortunately he is not in Mac business and not a coder) so there is only one fine coder to be found to do the job :-/
