Titanium Fatal1ty Pro SPDIF game problem

(Titanium Fatalty Pro SPDIF game problem hi all,
sorry if this issue reported in the past i but i could not get any answer on any relati've posts, the terminology was so complicated
i buy?a new pc with a Titanium Fatalty Pro sound card, i use Vista sp2 x64, the sound card is connected to my external amplifier with SPDIF out in order to get surround sound for my movies and my games and here is my problem
any movies format with surround sound play perfect with out any problem any kind of movie DVD, dvix, mkv?files?etc
but non of the games i play?use the surround system, why is that? is any?kind of special settings needed to be done? how is possible to get surround to movies and not to the games?
thanks you all for your time ?

,Re: Titanium Fatalty Pro SPDIF game problem? this is really coincidence - I just posted on the very same topic 5 minutes ago.
for games just go to the Console Entertainment mode > Encoder > Dolby Digital. Although this is not documented I believe what happens is that the sound card encodes the 6 digital channels onto Dolby Digital mode and transfers this over SPDIF. Kok-Choy actually recommend using the standard analogue cables (and he has a point as you are actually upcoding an existing game signal onto Dolby so that your digital receiver can then decode this down to 6 channels - seems a pretty useless overhead)
for video - I am curious to know what you do - I can either get 96/24 bits on the display of my z5500 with a direct signal but the z5500 receiver then tells me that this signal is only in dolby ProLogic II (and not DD or DTS). As alternati've I use again the encoder and have to select for EACH FILM WHAT IS BEST DOLBY DIGITAL OR DTS. Pls explain what settings you use.
thanks

No EAX in games on PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro

9No EAX in games on PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Proo Hey all!
I am another seriously frustrated Creative customer who spend a lot of money on the most crappy hardware I have ever owned. :angry:
I own the PCI Express X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro and have problems getting EAX in OpenAL games. I think I finally got it to work in Trackmania but in Race Driver GRID I have no effects what so ever. A correct working X-Fi setup with GRID should sound like this.
I have tried almost anything by now - downloaded the latest OpenAL 2. from this forum, copied OpenAL files back and forth, tried daniel_k's latest driver package which gave me BSOD! Please - can someone help?
Rightmark via DirectSound and Alchemy works like a charm by the way - full EAX 4.0 supports etc.

MSI x58 PRO-E SLI+Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro

Im thinking of buying a Creative X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro for some better sound, problem is that I cant see if this is gonna fit in the top PCI-E slot because of the cooling block there.
Does anyone know if this will fit or not?
here is a pic of my current setup:
http://twitpic.com/1zvxnz

You asked if it would fit the other slot and I said it would, if the heatsink does in fact prevent you from using that slot then you can use any other available PCIe slot. A 1x PCIe card will work in any PCIe slot no matter what size the slot is.
I took a look at the pictures shot from an angle at MSI website and it does look as if it may not fit there. I also noticed that on the 1156 MB that the same HS on them have very short fins in line with that slot, makes me wonder why the 1366 MB HS is not like that.
I assume you don't have or can't borrow a card from family or friend to just test for fit in that slot?

Titanium Fatal1ty Pro product numbers?

I've discovered this, and I am honestly quite confused.
On Creative's official store, the Titanium Fatal1ty Pro has the SKU 70SB088600002 . Looking at my own local stores, I see a very similar code (70SB088600000), where the only difference is the last digit being 0 instead of 2. That's not all though. Some retailers also have the quite different code of 30SB088600000 . That's three SKUs, apparently for the same product. Nothing indicates that either is the champion edition (the package including a front bay). Do these differ somehow?

You can use the product page on the online store as a reference to make sure that you are not missing anything. If you are buying from an online reseller, you might want to sure they are authorised & trustworthy retailers.

Gigaworks S750 cables for the X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro Card?

Hey guys,
I got a nice Gigaworks S750 7.1 speaker system and want to use it with my new X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro card. The Fatal1ty pro has analog outputs for a 7.1 sound system, but the Gigaworks doesn't have the same layout. Can anyone help me find the cables I need to get this setup running?

Hi,
There are 4 Line Outs on the X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro card.
Line Out 1 jack - Connects to the Front Left and Front Right inputs
Line Out 2 jack - Connects to the Side Left and Side Right inputs
Line Out 3 jack - Connects to the Front Center and Subwoofer inputs
Line Out 4 jack - Connects to the Rear Left and Rear Right inputs
You might want to refer to the user manual of the sound card and speakers system for more information.
You can still utilize the suppiled 7.1 cable. Just leave out the grey connector (side speakers) and use a single 3.5mm cable to hook up both ends.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. / X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro Prob

Has anyone been able to play STALKER using Creative's new X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro?
Since installing that sound card I have not been able to get the game to work. It starts to load and then stops responding before it even has a chance to go full screen. The XR-3DA.exe process keeps running, using about half my CPU, but just doesn't do anything it just sits there.
**If I disable the sound card through device manager the game starts up and works fine.**
I've updated every driver on my machine, I've cleared the sound card drivers, reinstalled the card, reinstalled the game, disabled onboard sound.
Is there anyone out there who has experienced a similar problem or knows of a means of fixing it's I freakin love this game, and I want to play it with an EAX enabled sound card.
Cheers!

Darn, I was hoping that was it. I have read that one of the Stalker patch programs attempts to replace?the ct_oal.dll file (which is a?creative driver file.)? You could try doing a repair install of the soundblaster drivers from the Titanium CD, while leaving the game installed and patched. After that you can test (feel free to test using different combinations of the?original two openal files with the two from your system32 directory.)? If you have already re-installed your sound card with STALKER installed and patched already then I wouldn't bother with this. For reference my ct_oal.dll is 6.0..34, which should be yours if it is installed off the Titanium CD. You could check this prior to doing the repair reinstallation to see if it is even an issue.
I also found this note regarding STALKER from [url="http://www.tweakguides.com/STALKER_6.html">tweakguides[/url]?(with yet another version of openal32.dll, which appears to be older (...0.)?You can try using that, if you want.
Unfortunately the download location of the 'more recent' versions of OpenAL doesn't work any longer. I sent you a PM with my email if you want me to email you the installer (taken from the Vista X-Fi CD, which is more recent than the Titanium OpenAL.)
Your card does work with other openAL or ALchemy games, right? If you don't have any handy to try, you could try running the Creative diagnostics; maybe there is something screwy with your hardware.
And I got this from the GSC support site, maybe it will help us locate the cause of the crash:
2. Find your log file.
STALKER uses two places on your hard dri've to store information. The game and associated resources are in the STALKER installation directory, which by default is on the C: dri've in the \Program Files\THQ\S. T.A.L.K.E.R. - Shadow of Chernobyl\ directory.
The saved games and logs are on the C: dri've by default in the STALKER-SHOC subdirectory. In Vista this subdirectory is under \Users\Public\Documents\ while in XP this is found in \Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\. You can also access this directory by entering %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Documents\STALKER-SHOC in the Windows Explorer address bar.
The latest error log, called xray_<your_user_login>.log* is under STALKER-SHOC in the logs\ subdirectory, while the saved games are stored in savedgames\.
*<your_user_login> is usually your name, the one you see at the top of the menu when you click on the start button on the taskbar in XP. If your user name is Robert, for example, then you would find a file named xray_Robert.log.
At the end of that file is usually a section that starts with "FATAL ERROR" and has lines beginning with "[error]". Include those lines in your post to give us an idea of what is wrong. Sometimes there is only a single error line, but it might be enough.

Beta driver for Titanium Fatal1ty Pro and windows 7 64 bit

I see there are beta drivers on the website for the X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro on Windows 7 64 bit.
The drivers are dated June 23, 200.
Are there any known problems with this set of drivers?

Now I can't find those beta drivers on the website anymore.
Did support take them down?
And do the current drivers dated: july 30, 2009 cause the shutdown bug in win 7 64 bit's

P7800 7.1 speakers on X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro - Confirmation.

Hi Everyone.
I just bought a X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro (It's better late than never, right? LOL), and I'd like to confirm with you guys what I researched.
I found around that X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro will recognize my oldie analog P7800, I only need to connect the speaker audio cable to the three Line-Out(green-Lineout6, black-Lineout3, orange-Lineout4) on the soundcard, and my 7.1 speakers will work fine.
Is this correct?. Can anyone confirm this please, or should I need to buy new rca cables for this?.
Thanks for every input guys.

Same problem here as well i have everything set to 00% volume and never had this problem until windows 7 now i have no volume at all period enless i go 5% or higher with volume control and alot of things are too loud even at 5% and i wish i could just put it at -4%.
Worked fine on XP , It seems to be the x-fi cards are just a cluster fk when it comes to windows 7 i have had nothing but trouble with my card since i installed windows 7 and enless creative gets o nthe ball and fixes these issue i won't be buying anymore of there cards i have always stuck with creative thru the years but it seems ALOT of the threads on this forum are issue related to windows 7 and x-fi cards with issue dating back to oct 09 and still no fixes released or even a reply from creative team at all as to whats goin on. Everyone is just being left in the dark from what i been reading and getting no answers and i think for how much the cards cost especially when they were new and more expensi've people should be able to use there cards and not wait 6 mnths for a fix or even a fix at all for that matter.
I am just glad i only have a 4. system right now because reading the forums it seems anything?5. or higher?isn't working right either on windows 7 and hasn't been working right since last year and still no fix for it yet and alot of people are getting very angry they are stuck using 2. with there 6. sound systems.

Poll: Who is having no sound issues with X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro?

Several weeks ago I purchased an? X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro. I have the latest drivers/software installed for all of my hardware and am using Windows 7 64-bit ultimate. There is no sound when the computer resumes from Standby or hibernate. I have to disable the driver in the device manager and then re-enable to restore sound. It seems the X-fi driver is not initializing when the computer resumes from these states. Problem does not occur during a normal cold start or restart.
i have an open ticket with creative support and need to find out if others are having the same issue on windows 7. Several folks having the same issue at this link with little to no success at fixing. I don't know if this is a driver thing, an IRC conflict or what. I have no had this issue on the same hardware with any other sound cards I've I had, to include an HT Omega card and the onboard sound; which leaves me convinced it is something with the X-fi card.
Please respond to this posting if you are having the same issue. If you have found a way to fix it, please say so as the creative support folks are still investigating and have asked me to give them more examples.

Just to confirm that deselecting entries in the "headphone detection" tab the creative audio panel seems to provide a temporary (but not an acceptable permanent) solution.
"Automatically mute speakers" provides the workaround but "automatically enable headphone settings" also needs to be deselected otherwise the PC will set to "headphone" on resume (rather than "5:" for example).
So it could be that on resuming from standby it is setting some internal headphone settings to mute the speakers.
I have created a support ticket hoping that this and the other post above might bring about a driver update.
Will keep testing and post any updates.

Titanium Fatal1ty Pro and front panel audio

So I hooked up my case's front panel audio cable to the Titanium card and used the front panel connectors.
The sound quality is noticeably worse than using the back plugs. When I use the front panel mic, I also hear artifacts in the sound. When I play a game, I hear slight buzzes in accordance to what is coming out of the speakers.
I'm wondering if this is just the quality of my cases's cables or if it also happens with the official creative front panel accesory.
Anybody want to comment on quality?

/Re: Titanium Fatalty Pro and front panel audioQI had an older Audigy 2 dri've connected to my X-Fi Xtreme Music and that never had any interference. The X-Fi dri've bay can't be bought separately anymore.
When I switched to a newer X-Fi without a front panel, I used the case connectors and the sound quality was awful.
I think it's the way the connectors are wired and the build quality. Despite the really awful drivers Creative ship for their cards, the hardware's actually pretty good.
There're some guides on how to rewire front panel connectors to reduce noise:

Can I repair my X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro

Hello to everybody. I have a X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro which doesn't let out any sound. I tried different types of speakers, drivers and everything which came to my mind but nothing worked out. I decided to get some help and sent my card to a computer shop wihch agreed to look whats wrong with my card. They said that there is a hardware problem with it which they can't fix. I didn't quite understand them but I think that some chip got fried or something like that I don't know to be honest. The problem is that I don't have a warranty for my sound card and I don't know what to do with it. Should I just throw it out or can I get it repaired somehow?

I am using Windows 7 64bit. I tried that kind of things a lot but nothing worked.
I discard the soundblaster, delete all the drivers, put it back in, let windows 7 install drivers and still nothing.
Tried it on different PC's, different types of WIndows 7. Pf nothing. Tried to turn off my integrated soundcard but still no luck. Any idea is welcome. It's a really big shame that I have to throw such an expensi've card but I guess that I have no other choice.
I saw that Creative offers support for their products after their waranty expires but no matter what happens they want 30 euro which is way too much and I don't feel like risking my money for nothing.

No MediaSource Go! with X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro Series?

I recently picked up a new X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro Series card; which replaced my older X-Fi Platinum, that sadly stopped working.
Anyway I noticed that, this newer Titanium card came with a newer version of the Creative MediaSource software; called MediaSource 5.
However, it does not include the launching application, MediaSource Go! which is the launcher bar that loads on startup. With my X-Fi Plat, when I hover my mouse over the top edge of my screen the MediaSource Go! launcher bar drops into view and I can just click on the icon of any Creative application that I have on that bar, to launch that application.
I liked that very much.
So I am curious, why is this not included with the newer MediaSource that comes with the X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro? I would very much love to have it!

@. Re: No MediaSource Go! with X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Pro Series? I have a similar issue. I am having a problem with speaker calibration which strated several months ago after updating some Creative files. Today I uninstalled all Creative apps and driver pack and reinstalled the latest versions. Doing this I lost my Mediasource Go! bar. So I downloaded it and when I tried to install it I got a message saying? I did not have the "minimum" version of MediaSource and that it would now quit. However, when I had Go! before I also had Mediasource5; in fact the Start Menu shortcut for Go! (which is now a broken link since Go was removed) showed it was in the Mediasource5 directory. So why won't Mediasource Go! install with Mediasource5 installed? I thought the "minimum" version of Mediasource required for Go! was 3.00.6.
