X-Fi Stereo Xpand Good or Bad Please Tell your mean

Hello,
The Sound of X-Fi is truly better than Audigy 2 ZS, but what about that Stereo Xpand ?
Can that decode Dolby Prologic Matrix in Movies with Stereo ?
Somehow I get the feeling sound gets more worse than good when I listen to mp3 or wma.
Even watching TV in Stereo through my X-Fi with Xpand doesn't make the movie nicer.
Stereo-Surround instead sounds great on mp3 and wma.
What do you thing about it. Do you know a special movie in Stereo with Pro Logic Matrix encoded where Xpand sounds great ?
ealy missing that stereofunction from that Audigy 2 ZS that just puts the stereo signals 2 or three times to that 7. Soundsystem
Sorry for my bad english but I'm German

Sorry if I misunderstand your situation, but it sounds like you're connecting your XMOD to your computer's onboard sound, which has background noise, but up until this post you thought that the XMOD was taking over for your onboard sound?
The XMOD is not a sound card. Its just the crystalizer and CMSS in a little box. That's why there are no drivers, because it isn't a card at all. It just applies those effects to any audio source. If you have background noise from yout onboard sound, and you're running it through the XMOD, of course that sound will still be there.

  • Is this good or bad compared to yours

    okay I finally made an effort to get some actual stats and am wondering if this is normal and how you compare
    I picked my phone off of full charge early this morning.. usage stats were back to zero (no I didnt drain it)
    I have had four and a half hours of phone calls.. no wi fi or blue tooth.. also no Ipod on either. I have had 12 hours of standby.. and now my battery is giving me the 20% warning... also no autocheck on email...
    brightness auto is off as well and brightness is about 30%.. thanks for your input
    I am wondering if I have an issue or not..

    that is what helps me... for me this is normal.. for the average person I am not sure what is.. so I keep reading about battery life but it comes down to usage.
    granted my razor handled this a little better but it also didnt have all the bells and whistles this does. I am going to monitor it the next few days,.. see where it lands.. this maybe part of our battery problems
    OH and I read on another site I am supposed to have a glowing battery upon charged.. mine doesn't glow but it looks full and has the plug.. anyone else see a glow??

  • Panasonic AG-DVX100b good or bad?

    Hey guys ok so i have tons of problems with my canon gl2... anyone out there DONT GET IT!! if your going with fcp for all i know 1. dropped frame rates alllll the time look at other peoples comments its true! 2. myn has a rewind issue.... its really annoying. Anyway thats not what im here for i am thinking of sellign my canon gl2 and getting a Panasonic AG-DVX100b since everyone says it works great with fcp 6 can you give a good or bad? tell me whats good about it whats bad... any info i should know... and if it works good with Final Cut Pro 6... i hope you help me out if you need this im on a macbook pro with final cut pro 6.0 and its a panasonic ag-dvx100b i hop that covers it!

    Of course you find only ISSUES when you search the forums for the GL2...who posts that they are having success? No one walks into a doctor's office and says, "My arms feel really good, and my lungs are clear." No, they go to the doctor's office saying "I am having trouble breathing, and I broke my arm."
    If you search the forums, you see plenty of posts with people having issues with DVX cameras too. Especially the forum dedicated to that camera. True, Canon cameras are a bit more finicky, but they work fine. Some have issues, others do not.

  • Migrating assistant good or bad

    Hi guys...
    This is my first post so be gentle... I just have a small question for you guys and girls... what is your view on the migrating assistant, is it good or bad... i have heard someone saying that it migrates some files over that mess up your system... and if it does how do i know which to delete.. and second of all can you choose exactely what to bring over or does it just take everything... is targetdisk mode a better option... maybe a bit more timeconsuming but safer...?? Please give me your opinions... Thanks... ohh forgot to say, reason why im asking is that im planning on buying the infamous MBP..
      Mac OS X (10.4.6)  
    ibook g4 1.33   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   Really want MBP

    I would say that this is a WARNING [capital letters - if you can't tell already ;- ) ]
    My friend - who is a computer tech [Mac & PC] since the Apple II days. For all of you that don't know - that is 30 years ago. He bought his first BRAND NEW computer ever - yesterday - A MacBook Pro 2.16 w/ 7200RPM HD [off the shelf at a local Apple store]. He has made a LOT of money from repairing computers - he didn't have to buy this MacBook, because he has EVERYTHING else - he bought it because the MBP represented the ability to have the Mac OS + WIN XP on the same machine. And also - his clients were asking questions about the MBP, and he had to know - first hand, what they were about.
    He used the migration assistant to transfer his files from his PowerBook G4 - 17" [1.67MHz] - and there was disasterous consequences! After the transfer - the new MBP wouldn't boot to the desktop - until several restarts later. Finally when he could - there was some very weird stuff going on.
    1. No Airport recoginition
    2. Screen stayed on full bright [couldn't be dimmed]
    3. His BlueTooth cellphone would shut off [I know - this is crazy - but it is true, the MBP somehow killed the cellphone connection!]
    4. Kernel panics - [many]
    He [with 30 years experience] promptly returned the MBP to the Apple store - and showed it to the "Genius" - who immediately gave him a brand new one.
    He [or the "genius"] never had any reason to doubt the "integrity" of the "Migration Assistant". My friend thought that his MBP was defective - and the Apple "Genius" thought the same thing.
    So - he took it [the new one] home - and used the "Migration Assistant" again - and the exact same thing happened!
    Finally - he just decided to re-install the whole operating system [clean install] - and now everything is fine.
    If I were you - I wouldn't trust the "Migration Assistant".

  • IPod touch - IS IT GOOD OR BAD?????

    i have just bought an ipod touch and my personal view is excellent!
    98% works perfectly - just the safari web brouser can be slow (eventhough im on highspeed wireless broadband)
    i love the coverflow and scrolling is amazing with a flick of a finger
    buying on the move is a big bonus - i've just been to scotland and was in a wifi area and bought a couple of songs! it only takes seconds aswell!
    pictures are clear and easy to see and zooming in by 'pinching' is clever and works well.
    obviously videos are good and so is music!!!!
    thats what i think about the Ipod touch what about you - please leave your comments on it - good or bad..............

    What I have found disappointing so far is web access on the ipod touch: I have not been able to log on to any commercial network (= requiring some sort of authentication) for example in hotels. It seems that Safari on the ipod touch does not support certain functions required. The connections worked flawlessly from Safari on my Macbook so it seem to be a ipod touch issue (I assume the same goes for the iphone).

  • Placing a PDF file in an InDesign Doc and PDF again for a vendor- Good or Bad?

    Current debate in the graphics department is
    Is it good or bad to place a PDF (general Press Quality) into an InDesign document and then creating a new PDF file with print vendor settings from that document?
    My thought is that you in some cases are double compressing, lower dpi images getting compressed, RGB color mode images okay on layout but now are converted to CMYK and shift in the PDF.
    Are there other issues and if so what are they.
    Also is there an easy way to check ppi, color mode and compression of an acrobat PDF? I mean other than doing a preflight and searching into each image folder twenty levels deep. FlightCheck and Enfocus are not options,
    too many vendors and not enough time.
    Thank you all in advance for your words of wisdom.

    Dov, I just got off the phone with a trusted professional in the Prepress field at a quite reputable print house, and he said "Dov is the guru of PDFs, ask him this...Will the InDesign CS3 preflight see the characteristics of a PDF (color mode, dpi(ppi), compression) if the original placed PDF is created as a pdf .X4 (1.7)? Ask him also if you were to use one form of compression (say lossless) in the original PDF, and then another form(say lossy) in the vendor PDF would it hold both or convert the first PDF compression to the second form?"
    Any other responses are also welcomed.

  • Good afternoon, my name is mike Perreault, on 9-28-13 I was looking for a free music app and I must have touch an ad about iTunes Radio because I was charged 20.20 on my acc", could please tell why and credit back on my acc.

    Good afternoon,  my name is mike Perreault , on 9-28-13 I looked for a free music app., I don't know what happen but my credit card was charged $20.20, please tell me why and credit my acc. Because I didn't purchase anything from iTunes .
    Sincerely ,
    Mike

    Please be aware that you are not communicating with Apple when you post in these forums. Most of the people who will reply to your posts are, like me, your fellow users.
    As to your issue, first, make sure that you did not inadvertently make an in-app purchase. Many apps, particularly games, are free for the base game but charge for additional features such as levels, "coins" and other such add-ons. Check your Purchase History to see if that reminds you as to what you might have purchased:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727
    If you find that this was an in-app purchase, to prevent this from happening again, turn off "In App purchases" in the Restrictions settings on your device. For more information, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4213
    As to a refund, that's not automatic since the terms of sale for the iTunes Store state that all sales are final. You can contact the iTunes Store, explain the reason for your request, and ask, though:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact.html
    They're usually pretty lenient in the case of inadvertent purchases, but there are no guarantees.
    If the charge was not an in-app purchase that you made and forgot but the charges do appear in your Purchase History, contact the iTunes Store and let them know. You should also immediately change your password for your Apple ID. If the charges don't appear in your Purchase History, they were probably fake charges made directly to your credit card, and your card issuer will need to handle those.
    Regards.

    refer to this Apple support Article, on Universal Dock which retail at $59 at Apple store.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1380
    Look through the compatible list chart and see which 80GB model are you using, either ID 9 or 10. you can order through Apple Online Store.
    Have a nice day!

  • HT2105 When you get a apple receipt for itunes songs and you paid with a itunes gift card do they charge you or give you store credit what's store credit is it good or bad or does it charge you if you have a free account with no credit cards at all is it

    When you get a apple receipt for itunes songs and you paid with a itunes gift card do they charge you or give you store credit what's store credit is it good or bad or does it charge you if you have a free account with no credit cards at all is it bad?

    iTunes credits are, for example, if you download a song from the store and it's found to be corrupt - if the track can't be fixed then iTunes support will tend to give you a song credit for a free download.
    When you purchase music from the store then any credits that you have will be used first, then any balance that you have (e.g. from iTunes gift cards or allowances), and any remaining amount will be taken from your credit card.

  • Goods and Bads with the 6110 Navigator

    Hi
    New user of this forum and a proud owner of a Nokia 6110 Navigator. I had the 6280 but after 2 SW upgrades and still problem with it, I gave up.
    First impression of the 6110 is good, but I found a couple of small things that ”irritates” me.
    1 – The timer function when you write “0200” and press options instead of green (call) button.
    2 – The original headset is too cheap to be an expensive phone like this, should be more like Koss “plug-in-your-ear” kind of headphones, instead of the small “put-close-to-your-ear” thing that is included.
    Also, the straight up cable from the top of the phone is no good. Makes the phone lie bad in the pocket. I also guessing that this cable is going to snap after a while. Why not a 90 degree “adapter” or something?
    3 – When you sending an SMS, on my 6280 you could choose “last used number” or something like that, now you have to choose name, and then number, and then OK to go back to the SMS.
    Well.. that’s it so far. Anyone else have goods and bads about this phone ?
    mvh / regards
    Timmy

    hi im havin same issues!!
    i went from 6280 to 6110 after i smashed it
    1.first off i didnt kno of the timer option...good bcoz it was annoyin not havin a stopwatch
    2. that "recent use list"...lack of it...is annoying. i just made groups of ppl i msg most
    3. menu organisation is confusing
    4. in call history, it only shows most recent time for that entry, ven if they rang 5 times that day, also they dont show call long eg duration of 3mins 40secs
    5. on my 6280, i had a shortcut menu as mi left select button, cant do this now
    6. power button is end call button, lotsa accidental turn offs
    7. cant turn off start up tone
    oh well i still like it

  • Is this good or bad in terms of battery life?

    So I have a question, my usage is 1 hour, 11 minutes; standby is 13 hours, 29 minutes. This is since the last full charge on my iphone4s and now the battery is at 68%. Is this good or bad, and the thing is when I used certain apps like words with friends even for 2-3mins I actually noticed the battery life going down 2%, and I know that because I have the option for showing the battery percentage switched to on. It's frustating that I'm doing the simplest task like going through settings and the battery is draining so quickly. Does anyone have and suggestions about increasing the battery life?

    The short battery life is an issue of iOS5 that should be fixed with the next updates. ( also hope that Apple would fix it fast)

  • N97 v20 Firmware the good and bad

    Ok, so I've been laying with the new firmware for a day now and to all of those that haven't yet, and are experiencing issues, PLEASE, back your phone up and do a hard reset.
    Then restore only essential things like contacts, pictures, videos etc. Not settings, these you can redo.
    A hard reset will NOT delete any data stored on the mass memory.
    I reckon it is essential to do the hard reset, this is a big firmware release, why not do nice a format and start from scratch? It is well worth it.
    So the good:
    Kinetic scrolling everywhere is bliss, I have 515 contacts and it scrolls beautifully. The only time I have some shudder is if my finger is a not perfectly dry. If it shudders, try scrolling with a fingernail, it seems to work for me.
    Overall speed and responsiveness.  The phone is a joy to operate now. Going from the menu button to the main menu and into settings or apps is now almost instantaneous.
    Typing a message with the qwerty keyboard closed is much easier now. Before, the touch screen used to miss keypresses and I'd have to go back and retype the word slower which drove me nuts and I had to use the qwerty keyboard everytime I wanted to type a message.
    Holding a key to bring up it's corresponding number is a welcome addition. The number change key is right on the bottom right of the keyboard which is awkward when you are typing quickly or typing a password with combinations of numbers and letters
    When you hide the widgets on the home screen using a sideways swipe, the clock now stays, so you can neaten up your desktop but still see the time. I didn't like this at first, but it seems pretty logical. Although I would perhaps have moved the time and date to a smaller font and pushed it up to the top near the signal or battery strength indicators.
    Browsing photo's is very nice now. The gallery is quick to load and once you open a picture you can easily browse with a side swipe.
    The Accuweather widget seems to behave itself now.
    The not so good:
    There are some updates that seem to have been forgotten.
    Where is Ovi maps 3.1?
    Where are the letters on the dialer screen?
    We are still waiting for Skype [Though this wasn't listed in v20 firmware]
    Facebook app is still the same. I saw a video where it was mentioned that the FB app was updated. It's still not possible to upload videos or see your notifications.
    For those having Issues with Ovi store and scrolling, you need to update it.
    So thats it. v20 firmware is the firmware that should have been shipped with the phone, I doubt then that there would be so many gripes with it.
    Once again folks, PLEASE do a hard reset, most of your issue post update will probably be resolved this way, but do not restore your settings, just contacts, pictures, messages etc.

    I've notice the Facebook App seems a lot slower. especially when loading up your friends list Now takes 30secs+. Any attempt to navigate elsewhere causes the app to freeze up
