Audigy 2 ZS Platinum - Can't Play DVD-Audio Di

Please help!
I have a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Platinum set up. Everything about the card works great - with one exception: the only DVD-Audio disc I can play using the Creative MediaSource DVD-Audio Player is the demo DVD-audio disc that came with the card!
I have tried playing a couple of DVD-Audio discs that I bought, but I can't hear anything.
Is there anything I can do about this?

First is to set the Recording device to MIC2. The front panel device is considered the second microphone. Basically whatever program you use, I would assume it has to recognize this second microphone. Make sure you ahve it selected under the sound mixer (task bar Icon) "Line in 2/Mic 2" underneath "REC" on far right side. Then you can go from there.

  • Playing DVD-Audios with an MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum

    I have a system built around an MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum motherboard.  I'm using the motherboard's onboard sound, and I have it connected to a 5.1 speaker system.  Using WinDVD 6 Platinum, I can play regular DVDs just fine, with awesome surround sound.  However, when I try to play DVD-Audios, I only get stereo sound.  Anyone have any suggestions?
    A.J.

    DVD video sound format AC3 5.1 and DVD-Audio sound format is not the same .
    DVD-Audio disks has also a video AC3 5.1 track and stereo track , set yor sw player to use AC3 and see if it helps.
    E.g a soundblaster Audigy ZE , or X-FI can render DVD-Audio , but not the onboard sound on Neo4.

  • How to play dvd-audio or dvd-a discs on iMac?

    How do I go about playing dvd-audio encoded discs on my iMac? I have been unsuccessful in finding a decoder that will recognize this format. I don't want to invest in ripper software unless I KNOW it will read and convert this format. Many thanks.

    I can play my DVD Audio discs on my MacBook Pro. On all my DVD Audio discs it shows DVD Audio and Dolby Digital. When I insert a DVD Audio disc the DVD player opens and plays the disc. Rou will only get Dolby Digital sound quality though and not DVD Audio sound quality.

  • How can I play an audio CD with QT 7.1.6?

    I want to play an audio CD with QuickTime 7.1.6.
    When I click on Open file and select the CD drive, change th file type to Audio Files and mark "Open as read-only" nothing is displayed. When I change to "All Files (.)" the tracks are showed with an ".cda" extension. When I dobleclick on a track, I get the Error -2048: the file is not a movie file.
    How can I play an audio CD with QuickTime 7.1.6?

    I confirm your issue as I just tried an audio CD in my XP laptop. "All Files" showed only the 44 byte .cda files and no others. QuickTime couldn't open them (error -2048).
    I also tried "Open File" with version 7 Pro and it couldn't open.
    Odd that I get the option to open using iTunes and it opens and plays just fine. Since iTunes uses the QuickTime engine I would have thought QuickTime could read the files directly.
    The same audio CD inserted in my Mac allowed me to double click any track and it opened directly in QuickTime Player. The files show as .aiff files measured in MB's.
    Windows users could open an audio CD in iTunes and then convert to .aiff (no compression) and then open the .aiff in QuickTime.
    I guess I should have tried myself before getting your hopes up. I apologize.

  • Can't Play DVD (with VLC, Totem, Xine, MPlayer), But Works in Windows

    I have a DVD that I can't play for the life of me in Arch. I've tried VLC, Totem, Xine, and MPlayer. And I do have libdvdcss installed. Other DVDs work fine.
    With VLC the DVD menu comes up, but when I hit play I get choppy sound and no picture. And I get these errors:
    [0x7f91f4000c18] main input error: ES_OUT_RESET_PCR called

    With Totem I get the DVD menu and when I hit play it just freezes.
    With Gxine I just get a popup window that says "Media stream scrambled/encrypted" (but again I do have libdvdcss, libdvdread, and libdvdnav installed). In the terminal Gxine reports it's using libdvdcss to get the encryption keys and it appears to all go fine, but then I get the "Media stream scrambled/encrypted" popup window.
    Mplayer plays the the DVD but the image is scrambled and the sound is a little choppy.
    On the other hand, in Windows, on the same computer, the DVD plays fine with an older version of VLC (0.8.6d) and with Media Player Classic with the K-Lite Codec Pack.
    I'm especially baffled that VLC does it in Windows, but not in Arch (nor in Debian).
    Any thoughts? Thanks.

    That's interesting. I didn't realize it was all css. But how does that explain in this case the DVD did work with free players in Windows. As I said, both with Media Player Classic with the K-Lite codec pack and with an older version of VLC (0.8.6d)? Thanks.
    That is very possible. All those players use (or can use) direct show. As soon as you have the needed filter installed by SOME software all those players will be able to make use of it. And i think Vista even had dvd filters pre-installed.
    Btw. One of the more common protections on dvds is called arcos and is developed by Sony. Google for it

  • Adobe Audition, Audigy 2 ZS Platinum, can no longer hear guitar :-\

    I've recently reformatted my computer, installed the Audigy 2 software, and installed Adobe Audition. Using Line In 2 on the front of my pc, I was able to plug in a guitar, and hear the guitar via headphones. I can use the remote's record button to instantly start recording, with no problems. I can also play audio using Itunes.
    When I opened Audition, I immediately received errors saying that my audio device was not configured or whatever, and that I needed to select an audio device. So I went into the Audition settings, chose Soundblaster Audigy 2 [xxxx], specified Line In 2 for the input, applied and exited. Now I can no longer hear the input from my guitar at all, whether in Audition or not. I'm not sure what setting it might have changed on my pc, but any help would be great.

If I play the guitar and record in Audition, i can see the sound levels being elevated, but hear nothing whether in audition or not.
    Other audio plays fine.
    Audio is not muted for line in 2, line in 2 is selected in recording screen, line in 2 playback volume is not muted, yet somehow I can hear nothing from line in 2, and i don't have to be recording a single thing... It just doesn't play back.
    I dunno what's going on, I haven't been messing with the settings or anything...Message Edited by intel352 on 01-27-2006 06:08 PM
    Set 1st your .REC to AnalogMix(...) and then select this '+' sign --> untag the option like picture shows.

  • SB Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro stutter during DVD playb

    I've just recently installed the SB Audigy 2 ZS Platinum Pro into my PVR. I am connecting to my stereo system via the SPDIF connector using a coax cable. I've set, via AudioHQ, to pass through any Dobly Digital and DTS signals to my amp therefore the Audigy card is doing no decoding of any kind for digital signals.
    The player I'm using is the latest VideoLAN player available (v0.8.4a) and have also set the player to use SPDIF output. When I try to playback my DVD's using VLC, the audio stutters constantly. I know it's not a DVD problem because when I switch the player back to normal stereo, the audio comes through fine.
    My amp also detects the signal properly as it goes from Dolby Pro Logic to either Dolby Digital or DTS depending on which audio track I use from the DVD.
    My system has a P4 3.0GHz CPU, GB RAM, 200GB HD (partitioned 0GB for OS, ~80GB for PVR recording, 0GB swap), with XP SP2. My swap is system managed and the OS has set it to ~.5GB.
    Has anyone experienced the same or similar problem? Any help would be appreciated as I've banged my head against the wall all weekend long trying to figure this out.
    TIA...

    I have absolutely same problem.
    I use Audigy 2 Platinum.
    Operation System:
    Win XP Pro 32bit
    Driver:
    Creative Sound Blaster Audigy series Driver v.2.8.000
    Applications:
    Creative MediaSource Player-Organizer v.3.30.2
    Creative MediaSource Plugin for Remote Control v.2.30.02
    I use 5. configurations of speakers.
    When, I use remote controller to adjust volume.
    Front left and right channels working correctly.
    Center, Low Frequency and Back Left channels apply max high volume level and don t apply any other volume levels.
    Back Right channel apply max low volume level and don t apply any others volume levels.

  • Can't play DVDs in XP

    Have you guys experienced this problem? I can play DVDS on my Mac side, but when I play a DVD in my Xp side, windows media player indicates that there is something wrong with my video card and indicates that I need to update the video card. I don't really know what's going on. I fully installed everything from the Leopard DVD.

    I am sorry to do this to you. There is no link for me to post a new topic and I don't see my question anywhere but it is somewhat related to yours...
    I am running Windows Vista Ultimate on my 2007 iMac with Boot Camp and everything was fine with it last night. Today, there is no DVD drive. It doesn't see it. In Hardware Manager, it says...
    Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)
    Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available.
    What do I do?
    If I'm not mistaken, windows looks at the DVD drive as a removable drive. Its possible I could have accidentally "safely removed" it. But I don't know. Everything was working fine last night because I used the DVD ROM for drivers and other stuff. Today its gone.

  • Can't play dvd's in quicktime

    I'm trying to convert movies to MP4 to get them on my I-pod video. I get how to do that, but I'm trying to simply open a DVD on quicktime, and i can't! I open finder, double click on the DVD name and all that comes up is VIDEO_TS, and all i can get from there is a bunch of random files... Does anybody know why i can' open DVD's on quicktime?

    QT does not play DVD movies natively. Apple does sell a mpeg2playbackcomponent that plays some DVDs but it has a number of limitations, including that it will not play mpeg-2 in transport stream format. It also will not play encrypted commercial DVD movies or sound that is in AC3 format. It does not export sound from mpeg2. Read the FAQ for the component here:
