How do I activate/use the subwoofer on a 5.1 Dolby Digital-system in ga

Hello guys,
in most games I don't have sound on the subwoofer of my Onkyo TX-DS 575. The Onkyo receiver is set to multi-channel input (which basically connects the signal through the receiver without altering it) and the separate channels (5 surround speakers + subwoofer) are connected to the soundcard properly and are working. I have confirmed this using PowerDVD set to 6 speakers (not SPDIF but the setting where the decoding is done in software)...there the subwoofer is beeing used. But almost no game (e.g. Half-Life 2 or S. T.A.L.K.E.R.) does bring any sound to the subwoofer even if 5. is choosen in the options. This is quite a problem since my other speakers are rather small and don't have good bass.
I think the problem is that the games don't calculate the sound for the extra subwoofer channel. So is there any setting in the drivers or any program that makes something like the average of the other 5 channels and sends it to the subwoofer? Or is there any other way to get sound to the subwoofer in games?
Thanks,
Alexander

Just found it myself... I forgot to check this box in the AudioHQ (it is probably called "bass redirection" in the english version):

    Hi AndrewHISC
    We would need to cancel one of the subscriptions and then you could sign up again using another ID.
    Let me know if you wish to proceed with this.

  • HT203658 How to sign in using the Apple ID that I initially used to set up the computer?

    How to sign in using the Apple ID that I initially used to set up the computer? I cant update my iPhoto and download pictures from Iphone :((
    I updated ios on my MacBook Air to Yosemite, since then I had to update also iPhoto, as it was not compatible with Yosemite. When trying to update it I received this alert "These apps cannot be accepted by your Apple ID. These have already been assigned to another Apple ID." And the solution wud be to sign in using my initial Apple ID, but Im not aware of having one or changing it. I have many Mac devices so I at one point sing in to my Air with another ID not even noticing it and have it since the moment I found out the alert. Can anyone help me with this, please? And also, where are my pictures stored in my Air? Is there some folder, cuz Im used to Windows and Mac is totally new and not really clear to me for now. I need to download pictures from my iPhone and iPhoto seems to be the only way??
    thanks

    How to sign in using the Apple ID that I initially used to set up the computer? I cant update my iPhoto and download pictures from Iphone :((
    Try to remember any AppleID you ever may have used.
    In the AppStore Application go to the "Store" menu.
    It will show you the AppleiD You are currently using (in the last menu entry "View my account ....".
    Use the "Sign out" command and sign in with any AppleID you ever used, ten check the "Purchases" tab of the App Store, if that will show the bundled apps.
    And also, where are my pictures stored in my Air?
    If you have used iPhoto to download your pictures, the photos will be stored in the iPhoto Library, a package, that is stored in the folder "Pictures" in your Home folder.
    Terence Devlin has written some very useful user tips, that describe the iPhoto Library:  See the links below:

  • I have used Airport Time Capsule with my iMac for several years. I recently purchased a MacBook Air and when it tried to backup to Time Capsule it couldn't because Time Capsule is full. How can I now use the 3TB Airport Time Capsule to back up both?

    I have used Airport Time Capsule with my iMac for a couple years. I recently purchased a MacBook Air and when it tried to backup to Time Capsule it couldn't because Time Capsule is full. How can I now use the 3TB Airport Time Capsule to back up both the iMac and MacBook Air? I don't mind losing earlier backups. I have excluded some items from backing up, but since the Airport Time Capsule is full, I can't even begin to back up the MacBook Air.

    On your Mac.......
    Open Finder > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click on the Time Capsule icon, then click Edit in the smaller window that appears
    Click on the Disks tab at the top of the window
    Click Erase Disk
    On the next window that appears, select the Quick Erase option, then click Erase
    The operation will only take a few minutes.
    Now you are ready to start new backups of both Macs.  Back up one Mac first, then back up the other.  Do not try to back up both Macs as the same time.

    How do I only use the wifi internet because I don't want to use my mobile data because I don't have Internet on my price plan and its costing me money?

    Well, if you are running iOS 6.0 or later.
    The option supposed to be in Settings>General>Cellular>Cellular Data---Off & Enable 3G---Off
    I think you'd better check the settings in Privacy>Location Services.
    Some items in it need Cellular data like"setting time zone" and "Find my iPhone'.

    from www.mef.gov.kh in the bottom of the page, you can get the unicode for the ms office

    I think that stuff is for windows, a waste of time trying to use it on a Mac.
    There is no need to download anything for Khmer on a Mac.  Apple provides Khmer fonts and keuyboards with OS X.

    MS Word for Mac does not support Khmer.  Use TextEdit, Pages, Nisus Writer, LibreOffice instead

  • How do I do use the custom code and format for a percentage with 2 decimals in Report Builder 3.0?

    In Report Builder 3.0, I have the following custom code entered:
      Public Function SafeDivide(Numerator as String, Denominator as String) as String
    Try
    If Numerator = “” or Denominator = “” then
    Return “-“
    End if
    If Numerator = “-“ or Denominator = “-“ then
    Return “-“
    End If
    If CDbl(Numerator) =0 or CDbl(Denominator) = 0 then
    Return “-“
    End if
    If IsNothing(Numerator) or IsNothing(Denominator) then
    Return "-"
    End if
    Return Val( ( (CDbl(Numerator) / CDbl(Denominator) )*100 ) )
    Catch
    Return "-"
    End Try
    End Function
    I call the custom code in the cell with the following equation:
      =Code.SafeDivide(sum(Fields!TY_UNITS.Value)-sum(Fields!LY_UNITS.Value),sum(Fields!LY_UNITS.Value))
    I have the format for the cell set to 0.00%, but it’s not being followed.
    I want the result to be formatted as a Percentage, but instead I get values like: 
    -78.9473684210
    80
    300
    -100
    I have the format for the cell set to 0.00%, but it’s not being followed.
    How do I do use the custom code and format for a percentage with 2 decimals?

    Hi AngP,
    After testing the issue in my local environment, I can reproduce it. Based on my research, I find this issue is caused by the type of Units_VAR_Percentage cell is string, while the type of CDbl(Parameters!Var_Threshold.Value) is double, so they cannot be
    compared.
    To fix this issue, we can add a hidden column (Textbox91) next to the Units_VAR_Percentage column, and type =(sum(Fields!TY_UNITS.Value)-sum(Fields!LY_UNITS.Value)) /sum(Fields!LY_UNITS.Value) as the expression. Then use the expression below to control the
    BackgroundColor:
    =iif(iif(reportitems!Units_VAR_Percentage.Value=CStr(format(reportitems!Textbox91.Value,"0.00%")),reportitems!Textbox91.Value,0)>CDbl(Parameters!Var_Threshold.Value),"Yellow","PaleTurquoise")
    If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
    Thanks,

  • How best we can use the Rollback and RollbackAlways mechanism in Visual Studio Release Management Template

    Hello All,
    We need a clarification on Rollback and RollbackAlways in Release template.
    We checked a scenario for Rollback and RollbackAlways:
    In Release Template, we have the first activity as “Configure Application Pool” and then followed by a rollback action of “Create Application Pool”
    and “Create Web Site” then followed by "Code Deployment" via TFS build.
    We tested with 2 scenario’s:
    With App Pool and Web Site already existing: when triggered the build, configure
    app pool succeeded, then Rollback action was skipped (as previous action was successful), finally deploy the code executed (code deployed) and build got succeeded.
    Deleted App Pool and Web Site: when triggered the build, configure app pool failed (as no app pool existed), Rollback action executed (as previous action failed) – created app pool and web site then finally
    deploy the code executed (code deployed)
    But build failed (Error: Configure app pool action failed).
    Ideally the build should succeed as the roll back action got executed and code deployed successfully.
    Please correct us if our understanding is wrong.
    Also, Kindly let us know how best we can use the Rollback and RollbackAlways mechanism in Release Management
    Looking forward for your positive response.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,

    Hi Shashank,
    Rollback Always runs if any of the actions in the template failed. Rollback will run if action just above rollback fails or if any of the actions below the Rollback fails.
    Article here (http://www.incyclesoftware.com/2014/03/understanding-rollbacks-release-management/) clearly explains how Rollback and Rollback
    Always work.
    I think you come across this issue since you are using build to do the "code deployment" action. You should use the release template to do that. 
    As far as I know you cannot use Rollback to achieve condition check (App pool exist in your case) action.
    For this you can create your own Power Shell component (which checks if the app pool exist and is not create it) and add it as a tool in RM server (RM Server Inventory).
    Another option is you can follow the workaround in below thread "Answer" quoted below. That is execute Remove app pool regardless if it exist or not (which does not fail) and then create app pool.
    I was able to get it working by removing the app pool which does not fail if it doesn't exist. Removing then creating seems the long way around but it works.
    Flow:
    Remove Application Pool
    Create Application Pool

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to use PowerShell to find out the users who use the on premise SkyDrive.
    As this is the forum for SharePoint Server, I recommend you post your question to the forum for PowerShell or SkyDrive.

  • I need to know how to access and use the Blue Tooth device that comes with the Thinkpad W520

    Forgive me for being a techo illiterate. But I know that this thing supports Blue Tooth. And one "problem" with it is although it has a DVD and sound card, music and movies have very lousy audibility. Is there something I can do about that? I can barely hear anything on a movie unless I plug in head phones to the computer. But that leaves me stuck in my seat. I'd like to get cordless headsets. And I'm ready to purchase the Plantronics BackBeat 903+ Wireless Stereo Headphones - Mic, Rich Audio, Bass-boost, Voice Alerts, OpenMic, 3-way Earpiece. And have heard that it's compatable with a pc that has Bluetooth capabilities. but could someone get back to me with exactly how I access and use the Blue Tooth device?

    I was searching for how to setup the 903+ and my W520 and came to this thread.
    1. The OP was asking about audio and there are updated audio drivers / tweaks to get it louder / install different drivers.
    but if you are going to go BT headset....
    2.  What I did for the 903+
    Uninstalled the currently installed ThinkPad Bluetooth program. ( I forget the exact name, came stock and was out of date).
    Required reboot.
    Activated the Bluetooth with FN + F5 menu.
    Downloaded the updated Bluetooth driver from lenovo (search lenovo driver matrix).
    Ran the updated Bluetooth driver install.
    Rebooted for good measure.
    Double-clicked the Bluetooth Tray icon.
    Clicked Add A Device.
    Turned off my 903+ and continued to hold down the power to enable pairing mode.
    Showed up in devices and added it.
    Worked for audio. There are probably additional options for enabling the mic.
    Hope that helps whoever might find this thread.
