5.1 channel sound from my Xbox via Digital in through my Audigy2 Va

Hi, I am a bit of a noob with soundcards I can't find the definati've info anywhere. Can I somehow get my Audigy 2 Value with the Digital inputs module to decode the 5. signal from my Xbox 360? I can get digital stereo to work, but when the Xbox is outputting 5. channels via optical I don't get any sound. Is this at all possible? Many thanks.

iMovie and FCPX both offer transcoding of AVCHD to an editing codec. In iMovie, it is transcoded to Apple Intermediate Codec. In Final Cut Pro X, AVCHD is transcoded to ProRes 422. In Final Cut Pro X, you have the option of editing natively in AVCHD, but most Pros will transcode to ProRes 422, because speed and quality of editing is more important to a Pro than saving on disk space. For why this transcoding is done, see this post. https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3941
Both iMovie and Final Cut Pro X also can do analysis for stabilization, analysis for rolling shutter, etc. FCPX can also analyze for color, sound problems, and maybe more.
With Final Cut Pro, the transcoding and analysis do not slow you down, because it can happen in the background. You can start editing immediately.
Also, you mentioned that you are converting m2ts files for use in iMovie using ClipWrap. iMovie and Final Cut Pro X both handle m2ts from Sony quite well with no need for an external converter. So I assume you must be shooting 60P, which iMovie does not do. FCPX will import 60P with no need for an external converter.
Final Cut Pro X has similarities to iMovie, but it is much more complex, because you have fine control over everything. In addition to the $300 price tag, you might want to also budget for some training. There are good video-based training resources from Ripple Training, Larry Jordan, and also some free Tutorials on YouTube. THere are also good books on FCPX. The best books I have found are these from Edgar Rothermich -

Two channel sound from 5.1 sys

I own Klipsch's ProMedia GMX 5. speaker system with digital decoding and I have a Soundblaster Audigy 2 Platinum soundcard with faceplate. I recently upgraded from plain RCA connection to a digital coaxial cable, connecting to the soundcard in the digital out port. For some reason though, in all of creative speaker calibration utilities, the only speakers which are recognized/produce sound are front left and front right. How can i remedy this so that nice lady says "front left, center, front right, rear left, rear right?"

K9N Platinum- Only 2 channel sound from SPDIF

Hi Guys,
I am struggling to get a 5.1 output on SPDIF in the Realtek Manager. If i run the 3d sound demo, all i can hear is sound from the front 2 channels, no centre or surrond speakers. This is extremely frustrating. Can someone help ??

Quote from: ivon on 09-August-06, 17:23:28
I am tempted to go and get the Creative card...However one of the reasons why i shelled out money for this Mobo was because of the SPDIF out put ...and i cant get even the Realtek sound manager to out put to the five speakers...
I could have gone in for a cheaper ASUS board and a creative card...however i cant afford another card at this stage mate. Need to figure out a way to get this working.
Where can i get the latest drivers for the 883 chipset.
Jal
STOP!!!!!
Don't just go and buy a Creative card, read these first:

If you want surround sound using spdif (optical or coaxial) the cards from Auzentech is for you. I'm using the HDA Xplosion but I think they are going to release a new card called X-purity in September. Their card can ENCODE Dolby Digital and DTS so you can enjoy surround sound using spdif. To be honest, my card, the Xplosion is not that great for gaming as it uses software+hardware Dolby digital/DTS encoding so you will lose some CPU usage for the card. It'll also cause your system to lock-up sometimes if the driver is corrupted since the encoding relies heavily on the driver. Eventhough it has those problems, I would not trade this card for a Creative card, not until Creative makes a card that will encode either Dolby Digital or DTS. The advantage is you can connect your PC with a home theater system or if you are using a Logitech's digital speaker (Z5450,Z5500) you can use the 3 analog inputs for 3 other device rather than only from PC. Btw the analog output of my Xplosion is also good but not as good as X-Fi, but you can change the opamps to make it better, but it wouldn't change the digital output quality at all.

My iPhoto library does not play the sound from videos by my digital camera

Hello, although the videos from my digital camera used to play sound from the iPhoto library, now they don't. only videos playing sound are the ones from the iPhone. The digital camera videos, do play sound on media player. Please help. Thank you

As a test launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library. Import some photos and test to see if the same problem persists. Does it?
If the problem persists log into another user account on your Mac, create another test library and test to see if the problem persists there. Does it?
Can you export a video from the digital camera to the Desktop as Kind = Original and play it with Quicktime Player? Does the sound play then?

Cant get sound from my apple tv to play through my external speakers.

Hey folks.
I have an apple TV which i've connect to my TV via HDMI cable, sound through the TV speakers. However i have an iHome external speaker set which has two types of connection inputs:
Headphone Jack 3.5mm
Component Video Output (R,B,G)
I have connected the apple TV audio output (R,W) to the Headphone input... no sound but still coming from TV speakers.
Is there any alternatives which i could use?

Ah thank you for your suggestions but i figured i needed a video output as well as a audio output onto the speakers, all sorted!
that seems like a strange solution.
the speakers don't have a video input, so what exactly did you connect?
from the link you posted, the speakers have a video output, and so does the appletv, so connecting to video outputs together should do nothing at all.

The music sound from my i pod is muffled through my headphone.. does the headphone jack need replacing

Iv had my ipod for few years.. now the sound through the headphone is muffled i brought new ones but the sound is still the same.. does the headphne jack need changing and how much will it cost ?

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R".
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

Spdif guitar sound from Creative Blaster not coming out through motherboard sound card

I just bought a new 64 bit PC & transferred my creative labs sound blaster card to it from my old 32 bit PC.
Everything was fine with windows XP on that 32 bit machine. I fed my guitar signal from my Line 6 UX2 into the spdif in on the creative sound card & the guitar sound was available at the back of my PC from the basic card on the motherboard.
Now with the new PC I still plug my guitar into spdif input at front of my creative labs sound card. The output is present on the optical out at on the Blaster card. However the guitar sound coming out of the back of my PC from the onboard Realtek sound card is delayed by about 100ms & is poor quality. I've tried every configuration setting but can't get it right. I need to take it from the back so I get everything including play back from one output.
Also the creative labs control consol opened initially, but now says 'device not available' when I try to open it. Although to start with it would open. The creative card is enabled so it should see it.
I've downloaded the latest creative labs driver. I think it's for 64 bit. Not sure.
Any constructive suggestions would be much appreciated.

Does ANYONE have a solution?

No sound from headphones in Logic. Read through many posts already.

Hello,
I can't seem to find a solution anywhere. Trying to record vocals. I am running a Logic Pro 8 with a Presonus firewire sound card. I have my headphones hooked up to my soundcard... when I open Logic everything seems to work fine, Logic seems to be recording sound. I can't hear myself in the headphones and can't playback with any sound. It looks like it's playing back thou. I have chosen my device to Presonus in the Logic preferences option. I also went into my system preferences to set the device to Presonus. It said that "the selected device has no output controls" same for the input. I can't think of anything else. Can someone please help :)))) PLEASE

Ok so I figured it out :)))))))) I am fairly new but I created a new audio track and chose output 3-4 instead of 1-2. Works great.

I have no sound from x factor app on iPad, any suggestions please?

I have just downloaded the x factor App on my iPad. I have no sound. All my sounds are on, but for my keyboard..and. Not sure how to turn that back on as it's displaying on under settings in sounds. All sound from every other app is coming through. Any suggestions please?

Are you sure that you don't have system sounds muted? You will still have sound in the Music App and YouTube even with systems sounds muted.
If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Barely audible sound from X-fi to Z5500s

(Barely audible sound from X-fi to Z5500s? For the past few weeks every other day or so after turning on my computer I get barely audible sound from my computer speakers (Z5500s) connected through the 6 ch direct. I can make out music or whatever it is, but it's extremely faint. I have an X-fi Platinum with the front pannel, and if I plug headphones into the front pannel I get normal sound. Likewise, anything else plugged into the Z5500s (e.g. iPod plugged into the 6 ch direct) works just fine.
To fix the problem I've been able to unplug the three audio cables going into the X-fi, wait a couple seconds, plug them back in, and everything's back to normal for a couple days. Today it happened, but I can't get normal sound from the card to the speakers no matter what I do (agian, everything else works fine). I tried replacing the cables connecting the X-fi to the Z5500 dock, and that fixed it for about 30 seconds, then it went out again.
So I'm wondering if anyone has any ideas. In case someone asks, onboard sound is disabled.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I needed to use a mic (arenas in World of Warcraft) so I decided to enable my onboard audio. My plan was to use the X-Fi with the default driver for sound and the onboard audio for the mic. This worked. Today I decided to install the the X-Fi Titanium drivers...just for fun (full install). This is with the onboard audio still enabled. I did one thing different and that was select "headphones" as my speaker type. Now, I'm second guessing myself but I believe it didn't work right after the install. I then lock the screen for a few hours, it either sleeps or hibernates, and I come back to working sound.
bleh
Did a few more tests.
) Rebooting with it set to headphones will give me sound.
2) Changing it to 2. sound doesn't produce sound. Change it back to headphones does not produce sound. ?
3) After a reboot, I was playing a mp3 and the sound cut out after 30s.
4) After a reboot, waited 5 minutes, played same mp3 and got no sound.
5) Reboot, disable onboard audio, started to play mp3 and it cut out after 5s.
6) Reboot, disable JMicron AHCI Controller, play mp3 and it cut out after 20s.
7) Reboot, disable HPET Function, mp3 stops after a few seconds.
8) Reboot, plug in headphones instead of my Klipsch speakers and it took 5-0min for the sound to cut out.
Next step is to use my spare hard dri've with the rest of the computer parts from my old computer to install winxp and see if it is an issue there too.

I've connected my ipad to my TV via hdmi but cannot get sound. Is there a way to get sound from the TV?

I'd like to get sound from the tv for my keynote presentations. Is there a way to do this via the hdmi connection? Or do I need to connect an 'audio-out? Thanks in advance for your help

the hdmi should transfer both sound and picture

Supports multi-channel digital audio output on compatible devices
make sure your ipad is not muted
make sure you volume is not all the way down
make sure audio play out of the ipad when not connected to the hdmi adapter
if you did and it don't work then it's likely an issue with the connetor
or the tv or it's settings

Outputting 5.1 Channel Surround Sound from your Mac

How to output 5.1 Channel Surround Sound from you Mac...

I have been using my MacBook Pro via HDMI into my pioneer av amp which is set up for 5.1.
I have been able to output 5.1 audio with Logic Pro and FCPX no issues at all after you setup the audio midi utility for 5.1. This setup is via PCM 5.1 audio not to be confused with Dolby 5.1.
It works great. If you want to play your edited exported movies from Final Cut Pro x in surround then it gets a bit tricky. I export the movie with FCPX as master video with the 5.1 audio then use HandBreak set to atv3 to encode / compress the video. This is great because handbreak folds the 5.1 into a stereo AAC track and also encodes the 5.1 mix into Dolby 5.1 AC3 track so both stereo and surround tracks are embedded in the movie file. So if you have an Apple TV it will play the movie with its surround track. If you play the same HandBreak compressed movie out of your Mac via hdmi to your surround amp it will only play the stereo track if you are using iTunes or QuickTime and I believe this is because of copy protect and Dolby license issues. iTunes will play a purchased movie from the itunes store in surround via your Macs hdmi to receiver setup but will only play the stereo track of the movie you exported from HandBreak even though it is set up just like an iTunes movie. To get your HandBreak movie to play in Dolby surround from your Mac all you need is VLC player, then you have to go in and select the Dolby track and the output in VLCs audio settings and bingo your HandBreaked movie then plays out of your Mac in Dolby surround. Once you set your Mac up for 5.1 mixing your amp will show your outputting 5.1 via the mac but again this is PCM audio 5.1 and apps like FCPX, Soundtrack Pro, Logic Pro will work.

Can't get sound from my midi channels

Hello. I've been using Logic 8 for a while. 2 days ago I updated to the newest version 8.0.1 and after I did it, I can't get sound from my midi channels. Before the update I could use my Ivory pianos perfectly, but after the update I can't. I've tried every setup I can imagine. I've been here sitting for hours trying to fix it but I can't .
Logic recognizes my keyboard, since I play...all the notes appear on the transport bar, but i can't get sound from any sampler (Ivory, EXS, EVP88, etc).
I've checked my outputs, etc...but nothing.
Please help me!!! I'm desperate!
Thanks

Do you hear the Audio tracks and only Software Instruments are not working od don't you get any output at all? I was just assuming that through the update your Apogee has been removed as your Audio device in Preferences->Audio->devices.
