Micro usb audio out feature addition request

so i had a pair on micro usb headphones out and i thought it would work on my stream 7, because of the buzzing problem. However it doesnt work and windows dosnt seem to read it either. Any way for a bios update for the stream 7 so micro usb audio out will work, and any hp prgram for them to make, so i can use headphones.
This question was solved.

I know of no device that has OTG "Built in".. so with that said...Micro USB headphones are in more of a testing phase, and only supported by a select few phones/tablets. The device itself has to be "usb headphone aware" because normaly none of these devices default to host mode (ie none of them react to usb connections in the same way a PC/laptop does).
USB phones have been around for a while, and if MicroUSB headphones have a fall back that allows it to be detected as a sound device by any usb host port then using an OTG cable (You will probably need an adapter to convert the Type A connection back to Micro B) it should work fine on the Stream 7. However my understanding is microusb headphones are being designed around a more direct support from mobile devices, much like MHL offered HDMI over usb.

USB audio out not getting to DAC

Just set up my Macbook late 2007 OS 10.7.5 to a Denon DA-300USB DAC.
I'm successfully playing files out of JRiver Media Center software via Mac's digital audio out through an optical audio cable. But optical audio has limitations on bitrate, only to 24-bit/96khz.
I want to use higher rates and have some higher res files. The DA-300USB can process up to 24/192 and DSD files using USB.
When I connect the DAC using USB and power on the DAC, the sound preference pane adds the option "Audio Out High Speed USB," which is what I select. This indicates the computer is seeing the DAC.
But when I play a file, the DAC display reads "unlock," meaning it's not receiving audio. And the sound plays through the internal speakers, Ugh!
Denon says no driver is needed for this device -- indeed the computer does detect a USB audio connection when the DAC is on.
Is there something I'm missing?

According to Crutchfield, this DAC can only process ALAC up to 96 kHz. Can you get lower res files to play using the USB connection?

How to prevent Mac Pro to select USB audio out instead of optical audio out?

I have the following problem: Usually I use the optical audio output of my Mac Pro, but every time I reboot the system, Mac OS X changes the audio output to an usb audio device I've attached to use it with Boot Camp. Is it possible to prevent Mac OS X from changing the audio output automatically every time I start my system?

I have no problems with the audio out (the jack on the back) on my Mac Pro, though I'm not using a high-end stereo and I'm in an office environment so I may not hear subtle noise. If you haven't tried a different cable, you might try that. If your stereo supports it, you can also try the optical output.
As far as it not playing at all, make sure the Output setting in the Sound system preference is set to "line out" (or digital out if you're using the optical jack).

USB audio out of phase

I'm having a strange problem with the USB audio output of my PowerBook. The left and right channels are out of phase, both on my USB speakers and my USB headset. The analog output from the headphone jack is fine.
The problem seems to have arisen some time around my 10.4.9 or 10.4.10 upgrade, although I can't be sure that it's related. It's still happening in 10.4.11. I suspected something strange when Skype stopped working with my headset, but it took me a lot of thinking and a tone generator to determine what the problem was. Now I'm just about positive that all USB audio output is phase reversed between left and right.
Has anyone heard of this? I couldn't find anything in the forums. Thanks for any help you can provide.

You may need to verify the Hd & Repair from another volume, HD, Mac, or Install CD/DVD if necessary.
Then Repair Permissions... trouble is if you don't do this step before & after every update, you can't be assured of every file in the update/upgrade being replaced/updated, it may require reapplying a big Combo update afterwards, or even an Archive & Install after everything is fixed otherwise, personally, I use Applejack...
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19596
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, then when the prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 5 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 5 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.

USB Audio Out?

I'm shooting a music video and would like to use my Macbook Pro as the music source. The location we're shooting at can take a USB audio in to their board. Is there a way I can do this?

If their USB interface uses CoreAudio then it's plug-and-play - it should just appear as an output route. If it doesn't, you will need a driver, and this may or may not be available for Macs.

USB Audio Power feature

Did you know USB Audio Power continuously delivers a stable 5V to the USB ports on #MSI Z97 and X99 GAMING motherboards, delivering perfect audio quality for USB headsets and USB DAC devices? #GamingStartsHere

this provide the gamer a super experience of sound!
Stable 5V makes the sound even better and better.
Besides,when wearing a high end head set,the sound would be comparatively sensitive!
Thus I think it's quite important!

Toshiba 32C120u Audio Out feature question

Do the RCA jack audio out connections send a plain line-out audio signal that is not subject to the TV volume control?
I need a tv to use with some wireless headphones but also need the speakers to work normally for the rest of the family.

RCA out is fixed line level you can still use speakers normally at the same time

Usb audio out from airport express

Hi,
If I want to put a DAC with USB input between Airport Express and my stereo, will I be able to do so? I'm thinking about using the NuForce Icon-2 DAC. So Itunes>>Airport Express>>NuForce DAC>>stereo receiver.
Thanks in advance,
Dave

Sorry, but no.
You will have to use the optical audio output on the AirPort Express if you want a digital out.
The USB port will only support a compatible printer.

System sounds over USB audio out

I have a white Macbook hooked up to my JVC receiver through USB (It uses the venerable Burr-Brown chipset, so you can hook it straight up to a USB port), through a USB hub.
All is well, and my iTunes list plays through the receiver's speakers just fine, as do DVDs, CDs and whatnot.
However,the system's own sound (the Ping of received mail, or the gentle swoosh of the trash can emptying) do not. They continue to play over the laptop's own 2 speakers.
In the Audio pane in System Preferences, everything is set correctly. The selected output device is the receiver, in the sound effects tab in the same pane I can set the receiver as the selected output device, but system sounds keep playing through the internal speakers.

I appreciate the answer, but if you read my question thoroughly you will notice this: "In sound settings, both Input and Output are set to the M-Track"
Most audio routes properly. It is strictly system notifications (New emails, File transfer completed, etc) that routes to the internal audio.

Multiple Audio out: usb dac audio out and hdmi out

Good afternoon everyone, I have a 2010 mac mini with the following audio set up.
- A usb dac (xtreamer) connected to my stereo amplifier
- an Hdmi cable to the tv to get video and audio diretcly to the tv
Is it possibile by any chance to get simoultanesly audio output both from usb audio out and hdmi audio out???
In "midi preference panel" I tried to create a "virtual" sound card but i am not able to get sound simoultanesly. or via hdmi, or via usb.
this is quite disappointing because if I want to listen to music with the amplifier and then watching a simple video with mac mini and tv only I need to go back to the audio preferences and set up manually each time.
Is it possible to solve this issue???
Thanks a lot and gretings from Italy

I can select ATV audio out (Airplay setting) to either my Airport Express or my computer so it must be transmitting via airplay. Using a combination of Airserver, Airfoil and Airfoil Speakers I managed to get the ATV audio content on both my PC and my Airport Express at the same time but it cuts out the ATV audio.
My aim is to have a movie on ATV transmitting the Audio to ATV AND my stereo (which is hooked up to the Airport Express).
Cheers

Kanex MIni DisplayPort+USB Audio to HDMI Adapter --NO SOUND

Hi,
I just purchased a Kanex Mini DisplayPort+USB Audio to HDMI Adapter for my new Samsung flat screen so I could watch netflix movies. The guy at Tekserve (NYC based authorized dealer) said it's really cool b/c it's audio and video all in one. Two cables are attached to a small box on one side and on the other side of the box is for the HDMI cable which goes to the TV (most of you prpbably already know this) .
The two attached cables fit into the the USB (audio) + mini display port. The video works great, but no sound. I called Apple for tech support and we tried a few things like changing the sound output to USB, but no luck.
I can call Tekserve on Monday, but would love to figure this out before then for the week-end.
Thanks everyone for your help.
Mary

There are actually 2 different Mini Display port to HDMI adapters from Kanex. One supports 2 channel audio through the USB audio out cable, which is the one you have Mary. The other one with the extra audio plug cable supports 5.1 digital audio.

I don't have either of these adapters but I would think that you "should" be able to go into your System Preferences under Sound. If the USB plug from the adapter is plugged into your MacBook, then it should show up in the output window in the Sound preferences which you would then choose instead of outputting the sound to the built-in MacBook speakers.
At the bottom of the product description page of the adapter that you have (the USB 2.0 version), it says this:
+Sound Output setting on Macs must be changed to "USB Sound Device/USB Type" to have the adapter operating correctly.+*
Let us know if you get it working properly. I'm considering getting one also.
Sorry.... I just re-read your initial post and it sounds like you already DID try switching the sound output to USB with no luck. The only other thing I can think of is the adapter might be bad and maybe exchange it for another one from where you purchased it. Or you could maybe exchange it for the 5.1 digital audio out version. Although it sounds like your sound is going directly into the tv via HDMI and not a surround sound receiver.
Kanex does have tech support and contact links on their web page. Maybe you should email them directly about your problem. Unfortunately I'm sure you'll have to wait til sometime during the work week to get a reply back.

For outdoor chargers do people just resign themselves to lightning/micro usb converters?

I was at a big electronics store in Akihabara yesterday and while they must have had a selection of 500+ different cases for the iPhone 5, there were no portable chargers specific for the iPhone 5. They had zillions of chargers, but they all required buying an extra lightning / micro usb connector.
On the one hand if I do that I can use the same charger for different devices, including my new Nexus 7.
But is that what everybody does? Manufacturers don't make portable (e.g. rechargeable battery or solar) chargers for the iPhone 5 with lightning connectors built in?
Why on earth did Apple go the route of this non-standard connector when there was a perfectly good micro usb standard out there already?
Thanks,
doug

Look closely at the way you handle the cables. I have never had any cable, Apple or third-party, fail on me.

Multiple USB Audio Outputs?

Is it possible to set up the mac mini to have multiple USB audio out puts? I'm wanting to use a mini displayport + usb audio > hdmi cable to a plasma for computer use. But is I want to listen to just plain music use USB audio to a DAC into a 2 channel system. So for this system I would need to use 2 USB outputs for music.
Thanks

Sure,
You can output sound through more than one little external USB sound card, but probably not to more than one at a time. You'll have to select the Output in the Sound Preferences each time to switch them, too.
But don't overlook the Mini's internal sound output as one of your 2-channel or 5.1 audio outputs. The 2009 Mini has better audio output than the PPC Mini, that I also had and used an external USB sound card with (M-Audio Transit). Of course, now there are cheap little external USB sound cards that look like a little thumb drive for an added 2-channel audio output. So, I'd use the Mini's internal output and an Optical cable for 5.1 sound out, if I were going to use one of those cheap little sound cards. But you can go the other way, too, if you want, with a better USB dongle (like the M-Audio Transit) for your 5.1 sound.
Please let us all hear how it goes and what path works for your application.
Peace to you,

Audio out via 30 pin on iPad 2

Does anyone know if the internal speaker will still work when you use a 30 pin cable and grab audio out off pins 3 &4? If so which cable works? Bought a 30pin to USB/audio out 3.5mm that kills the internal speaker. Using iPad 2. Thanks

No, the speakers do not work while the audio is sent out through the dock connector.

Is it possible to play iTunes audio out through USB to receiver to power speakers?

I thought you should be able to.Play iTunes audio out through USB to a receiver equipt with USB mode as I can with my iPad Air, but I can,t find in preferences on my 2013 iMac any out put and I get no signal to the receiver/amp. Is it possible? What am I doing wrong?

Yes
A 3.5mm to RCA cable or adapter will work fine for stereo between the Mac's headphone jack and receiver's RCA input.
for example's
> http://www.amazon.com/RiteAV-3-5mm-Stereo-Female-Cable/dp/B0018MI5F6
> http://www.amazon.com/C2G-Cables-40645-Stereo-Adapter/dp/B000J1H4VI/
Additionally if your receiver is equipted with digital input, you could use a Toslink cable with a 3.5mm adapter on the Mac end.
