Asound.conf making PCM volume and alsaequal both working

In my case, actually, my asound.conf does not allow to have PCM vol. and alsaequal both working.
asound.conf :
ctl.equal {
type equal;
pcm.plugequal {
type equal;
# Modify the line below if you don't
# want to use sound card 0.
# slave.pcm "plughw:0,0";
# or if you want to use with multiple applications output to dmix
slave.pcm "plug:dmix";
# pcm.equal {
# [u]only PCM volume works for normal user tested with songbird[/u]
# [u]only alsaequal works for ncmpcpp with a separated mpd user[/u]
# Or if you want the equalizer to be your
# default soundcard uncomment the following
# line and comment the above line.
pcm.!default { # [u]only alsaequal works[/u]
type plug;
slave.pcm plugequal;

  • Lightroom will not import my photos.   It did up to a week ago.   I have changed cards and cameras (both worked two weeks ago).   I can import the photos to Picasa and iPhoto

    Lightroom will not import my photos.   It did up to a week ago.   I have changed cards and cameras (both worked two weeks ago).   I can import the photos to Picasa and iPhoto.   I get the following error message:  
    Some import operations were not performed.
    The following files were not imported because they could not be read  [followed by a list of the files I wanted to import]
    Thumbnails show up.  LR just will not import them.
    Any idea what is going wrong?

    If the Import button is not clickable, that means that Lightroom thinks you have no new photos to import (one possible reason is that they are duplicates)
    So, you need to figure out why Lightroom thinks that. The way I would do this is to search your Library module for at least one of the photos, by file name. To do this, you would follow all 4 of these steps in sequence:
    Click on All Photographs in the Catalog Panel on the left of the Library Module
    Turn off all Filters (Ctrl-L or Cmd-L once or twice)
    Expand all stacks: Photo->Stacking->Expand All Stacks
    Search for one or more of the photos using the Filter Bar (press backslash), search by File Name

  • HT1363 ipod making clicking noise and won't work

    Ipod making clicking noise and won't work. Display see apple store. We live in a rural area so one is not close!

    OK, I have the 30G w/video and it does that too. I've had it a year with no problems. My husband went on the treadmill with it a couple days ago and after a few songs it froze. I did the whole regime of toggling and pressing menu/select button, I put in on my Bose speaker/charger and it switched to very low battery warning. When I took it off to move to computer it said to connect to computer and use restore (in a few languages). I connected and it recognized it and I did restore and after a few minutes screen came up saying it could NOT restore. Then ipod was unrecognized and then ipod screen gave me the very sad little ipod picture with the support web site. At that point it began making the clicking nose - morris code does describe it but I was invisioning a little nano sprite in there with a chisel!!So, same as you, I go there and it's like a maze trying to find help!! Of course my warranty was up exactly 6 weeks ago!! I tried linking through all the stuff like finding a service provider in my area, contact the "knowledge base" etc., and I can't get anyone! Now what are we gonna do?

  • Can I install a second card and have both work?

    I am a Ham Radio operator.  I have a Pavilion HPe desktop running windows 7 64.  I would like to install a second sound card that would be used for Ham Radio digital modes and I would leave the onboard sound as default to run normal play back functions.  I tried this with a Sound Blaster XFI Extreme PCIe card (SB1040).  I got the card to work but it uninstalled the onboard card or the system would not recognize it. Is it possible to have two sound devices and they both work?  I did this with an XP system no problem.
    Thanks
    Dave

    based on some quick analysis you can use specific software to determine what you want to use as output. so check the software with the ham radio software to use whatever card is greyed out in the options on windows 7 and use that. What you want to do IS possible. we just need to figure out how to get it done.
    so in theory, windows could be onboard, and your ham radio software program could use the dedicated card, you will just need to play with options. see if that helps

  • My MacBook Air keeps asking me for my yahoo password; which when correctly entered will not allow me into the account. iPad and iPhone both working on the same password/account.

    my MacBook Air keeps asking me for my YAHOO password; which when correctly entered will not allow me into the account. iPad and iPhone both working on the same password.

    I've got automatic downloads turned off and I tried signing out and in via the settings and still keeps asking me for an apple id.
    It doesn't do it continuously, it'll just pop up randomly ... if the phone is just sitting there it may ask for my apple id and regardless of whether I press cancel or enter my password nothing happens .. it may be another 2mins, 5mins, 15mins but eventually it'll just randomly pop up and ask me again. It does accept my password though because I tried entering an incorrect password to see what happens and it gives me the error saying it's incorrect, so when I enter the correct one in the box disappears and it accepts it as I say, but only for so long before it pops up again.

  • Firefox will not open Version 4.01 (tried to download new version), on MacBook Pro running 10.6.8. Safari and Chrom both work OK

    I cannot get on-line with Firefox. It simply will not open any page. I'm told it cannot make a connection. And yet both Safari and Chrome work fine, hence it is not a connection problem.
    Moreover, when I started with Chrome, it offered me the option to export bookmarks, but only from Safari. Firefox never appeared in the import box
    I was using Firefox 4.01. I tried to download the new version, dragged it to Applications, but 4.01 remains in situ. I work on a MacBook Pro running 10.6.8

  • 4th Gen. ipod. No longer charges from wall socket. Still can charge from computer. Wall power adapter and cord both work fine on other devices. Wall Why?

    4th Generation ipod. Used to charge fine from wall socket (cord and USB adapter) and could also charge on the computer. Suddenly stopped charging from the wall. The same cord and adapter still work for my iphone, so there is not problem with either of them. What has changed? Why won't the ipod charge from the wall anymore? Is there anything I can do about it?

    Thanks! It didn't actually work with the one I was using to charge the computer either. We had tried the computer cable with the power adapter, and it didn't  work to charge the ipod, though it does charge my iphone. Following your idea further,  I waited for my husband to get home from a trip and tried one of his extra cables he keeps in his backpack. That cable worked in with the USB  power adaptor. I had thought that because the cable I use on my computer charges my iphone through the USB power adapter or the computer, and that it charged the ipod through the computer that it was fully functional. Apparantly not.  Thanks again.

  • After upgrading to FF4 all internet sites return "Unable to connect" and IE now returns an equivalent message. Thunderbird and Ping both work properly however.

    Have uninstalled and reinstalled FF4
    uninstalled FF4 and IE
    Tried to install IE 8 - failed due to working browser unavailable to download updates - duh
    installed IE7 still no joy
    installed FF3.6.16 same message
    turned off firewall (no proxy used) still no joy
    ping and email continue to work as normal

    I have what sounds like a very similar issue.
    I had my Denon 3312ci working perfectly with Airplay from my 2013 iMac running iTunes. Upgraded to iTunes 11.1.3, and now when I attempt to Airplay direct from iTunes to the 3312, it plays for about half a second and then stops. Displayed on the Amp then says "Assigning Network". The amp starts dropping ping packets at this point. About 15-20 seconds later the pings start coming back, but no Airplay.
    I tried different network cables, resetting the microprocessor, a different switch, changing between DHCP and static IP. Was about to make a warranty call to Denon, when I thought maybe I should try Airplaying directly from iphone and ipad. Much to my surprise, it worked from those devices.
    I prefer to use my iMac to Airplay rather than ipad/iphone as I found I got next to no audio drop outs using it that way (they are both using wired network), where as ipad/iphone occasionally would get a moment of silence in the middle of a song.
    My network set up is fine. I can use internet radio and connect to DLNA services fine on the amp. It is just airplay between iTunes 11.1.3 and the amp where the issue lies.
    No fixes as yet, but I have logged a support call with Denon Australia to see what they say.

  • Ssrs 2008 and Kerberos both work separately; but not together

    Sorry that this question is very similar to some others that have been asked on this forum. Unfortunately, none of the solutions I've been able to find here or elsewhere have solved my problem.
    I'm trying to create some reports on data in a SharePoint site. SharePoint is version 2010 and my SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) is running off of SQL Server 2008 (NOT 2008 R2). Both these systems have been in use by my organization for some time and
    sadly upgrading them is not practical in the immediate future.
    I know that I have Kerberos working properly on the Reporting Server because I created a test report that draws data off of another SQL Server -- not a SharePoint site -- and I can demonstrate a successful double-hop by running that report from a client
    machine such as my development PC. (authenticates client -> ssrs server -> data server  with no problems)
    Since SSRS 2008 and SharePoint 2010 aren't directly compatible (from what I've been able to find) I've set up SharePoint as an XML data source within my report. I know that the data source is working and authenticating on it's own, because
    if I access the report server web service directly from the machine that's hosting SSRS, I can run my SharePoint XML data source report properly.
    However, when I try to run the SharePoint XML data source from a client machine (thus requiring a double-hop) I receive the following error:
    The remote server returned an error: (401) Unauthorized. (rsXmlDataProviderError)
    All of my SharePoint web applications are set up to use Kerberos authentication, all of my SharePoint and SSRS service accounts are set up for delegation, and I've checked my SPN's numerous times to ensure that there are no duplicates and that all involved
    servers and ports have been accounted for. My SSRS config file has authentication set to "Negotiate."
    I'm obviously missing something, but I've reached the point where reading troubleshooting guides and set up instructions is just leaving me repeating things I've already tried. If anyone has any advice that could point me in the right direction on this problem,
    I would greatly appreciate it!

  • Making weird noise and won't work.

    Okay so I've had my iPod video for a couple weeks now and it has been working fine until the other day I ran out the battery completely. The next morning I plugged it into my computer and it turned on and said, "Very Low Battery, Please Wait" It had a loading sign and a battery on it. So I waited for like 20 seconds and then I noticed it was making this really weird beeping noise and it changed to this screen with a sad ipod icon and it said "www.apple.com/support" so I went there and looked everywhere for help and tried everything and nothing worked. After the sad iPod icon thing it went back to the apple startup and it just kept on cycling through the whole process again. It won't charge and my computer won't recognize it. I tried putting it on an iHome and putting it into another USB port and all kinds of things and it still wouldn't work. HELPP!!!! It's driving me crazy!!!

    OK, I have the 30G w/video and it does that too. I've had it a year with no problems. My husband went on the treadmill with it a couple days ago and after a few songs it froze. I did the whole regime of toggling and pressing menu/select button, I put in on my Bose speaker/charger and it switched to very low battery warning.

  • My wireless does not work on my ipad or my iphone.  It is connected and laptop and kindle both work.  Any idea why my apple products are not picking up the wireless?  They did in the past up until 2 days ago.

    My iphone and iPad suddently stopped picking up my wireless connection.  Other products are able to connect (laptop and kindle).  Any suggestions?

    Try resetting your wireless router by unplugging the router from the power for about 30 seconds then plugging it back in.

  • MacBook Pro will not turn or or charge, have tried resetting smc, know the battery and charger both work, any ideas?

    I've plugged in my MacBook with multiple chargers and batteries and every time the charger light illuminates green although the battery is currently dead, and wont turn on still. My guess is that the port the charger actually plugs into is broken though i've heard this probblem is caused by the motheboard being fried, does anyone have an idea on how I can fix this? - Thanks

    We can't help you, for that problem you will just have to take it in for a free evaluation.

  • Amcrest security systems.  Iphone6 will not link using pnp. Iphone 4 and 5 both work. Whats the difference?

    i have an Amcrest security system. It has a live view feature using PNP. I have successfully connected with an Iphone 4&5 no problems.  NOT THE IPHONE6, THE LATEST AND GREATEST. What is the freaking difference?

    Have you ever tried to get an answer from them? Why would I need to contact them, their stuff works as it should with the Iphone 4 & 5.  Apple changed something.  I will email them tomorrow and see what they say.  Hopefully they are not like apple and I won't have to make an appointment to see them three days from now in their one store in a city of 1 million people.

  • [alsa]how to get surround 5.1 on every apps? how to tweak asound.conf?

    Hello,
    I have a laptop dell studio xps 1647 with IDT 92HD73C1X5 chipset.  I have Alsa only (no pulseaudio with which I had problem running Spotify and Kde)
    I spent time reading and searching information but I do not understand everything about the way alsa and up/down mixing is running.
    I have some questions:
    1. On my laptop, I have 2 front and one subwoofer. So it means that I have 2.1 soundsystem right?  But on Windows (and Linux), I have the greatest sound quality putting 5.1 sound with IDT software.  Why ? How does it work ? Why don't I have better sound putting 2.1 option ??
    2. When I was running with Pulseaudio, I was stuck to 4.0 sound according with this issue: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=111727   and no way to put 5.1 sound on smplayer (for example).  Now that I removed pulseaudio, I can run 5.1 sound on smplayer and enjoy pretty good quality sound with movies. BUT this is apparently the only apps with which I can do this.  Amarok doesn't seem to use 5.1, neither do Audacious or kde notifications or whatever apps I use. How can I change it ??  Because There is a real quality difference between sound on smplayer and on other apps.
    3. I tried to change my asound.conf with this one: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18371907/asoundrc   but of course it is made for a specific laptop. So it does'nt work at all (no sound).  I do not really understand how it works. Is there some wiki about tweaking asound.conf with all these options ??
    4.  When I run
    speaker-test -c 6 -D surround51 -t wav
    I have every sound but LFE.
    What is exactly LFE ?  How can I enable it ??
    5. Pulseaudio or not Pulseaudio ??  If I do not wanna use network possibilities of pulseaudio, there is no other interest in it right ?  there is no better quality sound with it ??
    6. what is exactly S/PDIF ??  and how do I know if I have analog or digital system ??? what does it change ?
    thanks A LOT to pay attention to my questions  :-)
    And sorry for my bad English and my noob questions ^^

    Is it "quality", or just loudness?
    You want to get the "LFE" (subwoofer) working - try this:
    options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m6-dmic
