Audigy 2ZS Vid Editor - program the RM-1500 rem

I have the Audigy 2 ZS video editor box and the supplied RM-500 remote.
I realise that I can customise the functions of the remote to a degree using the creative 'Remote Control & OSD Settings' software, but is there a way I can completely customise the button functions to run my own commands / programs?
There is a freeware thing called IntelliRemote which is designed to do just this, but unfortunately it only works with the internal audigy 5.5" blanking plate remote sensors - not ones connected through USB like the video editor box.
Is there any way to completely customise the rm-500 functions without using the creative software?
Thanks
Ben

Anyone know whether this is possible?
I'd love to be able to re-write the functionality of the supplied remote control.
Any chance of you guys at Creative releasing a small app which anyone could use to trigger a custom command on any remote control action?
Thanks

Vista Drivers for the Audigy 2ZS Video Editor

OK, so I know I'm only one of 20 people in the world who were ever stupid enough to buy one; but I am disappointed to see that there is so far no Vista beta driver support for the device.
Are there plans to ever support it under Vista?
As half of the internals are an Audigy 2ZS sound card for which Creative are developing Vista drivers, the job is surely half done? Modifying the existing USB video capture driver surely can't be too difficult?
Must say, that if this device is ignored under Vista, it will be the last Creative product I ever buy .....
Nigel

I wish someone from Creative would give a definiti've answer to this question.
I've had the Video Editor for about a year so it's hardly old technology, and Vista was in development last Summer. The Audigy ZS sound drivers are being developed for Vista, how diffcult can it be to get the Video drivers modified to run under Vista?

SoundBlaster Audigy 2ZS VE Vista Driv

I have a Sound Blaster Audigy 2ZS Video Editor and am running vista business, i have installed the latest creative Drivers and have been waiting for months for creative to release PROPER WORKING FULLY FUNCTIONAL VISTA DRIVERS,? so that this product can work as its meant to work. I have been advised that drivers are being worked on and that they should be released soon. Its been 6-8 months and still no drivers that can deli'ver the functionality i expect in a $600 sound card, when i purhcased this product, there was a vista logo located with this product descrition saying it is supported and is vista ready, quite clearly it is not. I need accurate information on the following questions:?. Is there a creative team in fact working on a fully functional vista driver for this product.2. When will this vista driver be released?3. Will this driver deli'ver a fully functional product?Do not reply to this with some crappy template response as this will infuriate me, please reply with logic as i am a paying customer and have been for many years, i expect respect and i expect the truth from creative on this occassion. Please advise and escalate this matter to the MANAGING DIRECTOR OF CREATIVE, if you cannot then provide me with the correct contact details and i will do it myself.

Vespa,
We do not have plans to support Vista for Video Editor.
However, if you check the discussion on the Forum (primarily in the Video area) you will see that the audio portion can work due to the Vista support for the Audigy 2 ZS line and for the video portion, check the info on how to make it work. It works with Vista 32bit.

SB Audigy 2ZS Programs not working after Vista Instal

hey yours, after installing Windows Vista, many of mind Creative program are non-working. ex. creative surround mixer, EAX, THX ( all these program are came from the CD when I purchase the sound blaster audigy PCI card. even updated the latest drivers. when I tries to plays computer games like Medieval 2 Total War or Tom Clancy Rainbow Six that I tries to set for the EAX, they don't even go through. I dont wanted to go back Windows XP, because that wasting a lot of money.
So anyway I can set to EAX for PC Games?
I wanted to used creative surround mixer, anyway?
So, it's everyone are waiting for the Vista Drivers came out?
Since SB Li've and SB X-Fi are out already.
Thank You.Message Edited by QuanL7B_P on 08-5-200704:4 AM

Use the Windows' Volume Control. It actually is more advanced, allowing you to lower volume on a per application basis. You can also run the Creative Mixer in Compatibility mode, but I don't recommend it, as you may have problems. For playing DS3D EAX games under Vista, you need to download and install ALchemy:? This is essentially a wrapper, making DS3D calls into OpenAL, as OpenAL is currently the only library allowing non-Microsoft rendering on audio streams.Message Edited by alexs3d2 on 08-5-200702:05 PM

I want the video editor program for my Creative Vista Webcam

I have the model Creative Vista webcam N0225 - I lost the CD but found a link of how to download the camera without the CD reccently. I'm getting into making home videos-but-I dont know how to edit them with deleting parts adding music and fonts. I need the editor program for my webcam so I can start editing my videos. If anyone could help it would much be appriciated! Thanks.x

Unless you are using a beta, Release Candidate, a 'N' version or Home Basic, I can only point you in the direction of Windows Movie Maker. That should do you for now. If you are using one of the versions I mentioned above, then you're stuck for now. Creative have yet to announce if and when any updates will arri've for camera products.

Remembering the image editor program used

This is a follow-up question to my post of 10/22 re: image editor selection... I am able to select an image editor program using the 'edit with...' link on the library window in Captivate 5.0 and the program remembers my editor while I am in the current session... But if I close Captivate out, restart it, and open the same file again, the program forgot the editor I was using... Does Captivate remember my default editor selection only for the current session, or is it supposed to save my selection and show it the next time I open up the application?...

SB Audigy 2ZS Plarinum Pro: setting source for recording

Hello!
I am having problems setting the source for recording. I want to set the recording source from 'Wave' (default) to 'Line-In /Mic'. After doing so with the mixer or the MediaSource Player it resets to 'Wave' after some time. Why? Can I force the software to make 'Line-In /Mic' the default setting? It really dri'ves me nuts to see that the source has changed without me being notified. I want to have the source changed only by myself and not by some cozmic radiation, God's will, voodoo magic and whatnot.
Greetings
ClustalW

<Re: SB Audigy 2ZS Plarinum Pro: setting source for recording? Okay ClustalW, I understand the "Default" problem you are having. So can you go to control panel, and sound and there look at your recording devices and tell me what do you see? If your desired device is there, you can choose it as the default and then throughout the rest of windows, this will be THE global default recording device or the first choice, when you are in other programs to record from. Also, make sure your device is plugged in when making this change. On my system with that board, a few years ago, I could make the choice, but it would always pick something else when the source was unplugged. For example, if I were using the front bay inputs as recording, when I would unplug them and reboot, my system picked the next thing as default.
Next go into to your Creative Control panel and do the same thing there. Theoretically your choices should be linked, but this is not always the result. I can choose mine in Vista and windows 7, but lastly I always go to the Creative mixer applet and do it there and that works best. For me, my default is my front panel Mic or Microphone FP but as soon as I unplug it, it wants to make my back mic jack the default.

SB Audigy 2ZS clicking quest

Before I go through the hassle of tweaking all kinds of settings in windows and scrubbing and reinstall drivers (and thereby getting progressi'vely more frustrated), I want to see if anyone else has had the same problem I am and if they found a solid solution.
I have an Intel P4 based machine with a gugabyte 8KNXP mobo. The only cards in my machine are an ATI Radeon All-In-Wonder 9800 PRO, and my Audigy 2ZS. The vid card is riding in the AGP slot, and I have moved my sound card to every PCI slot except the one next to the video card due to heat reasons.
My sound is perfectly fine whenever I am not gaming. When it does act up, I do not get the crackling I have heard posted here by other people. What I get is a very regular click/pop. It is very sudden, very short, and *very* regular. The clicks are usually about a second and a half apart. The clicking isn't always present. It will come and go. When it shows up, it usually continues until I shut the game down, although there are cases when it will just suddenly stop and everything is ok again.
I have had this problem playing online games. WoW, EQ2, EVE, GuildWars, etc... Non-network games don't give me this problem.
The obvious assumption here is that it is network related. My motherboards onboard network controller is on IRQ 8. My audigy is on IRQ 22. No conflict there.
Has anyone experienced a similar problem?

Hello,
Thanks for the reply! In surround mixer, under source, I do see the last slide on the right is mic, but there isn't a mute option under the slide. I tried moving the slide all the way down, but that didn't help. Any other ideas? I'm desperate!!!!!!! Need communication during game!! Thanks

Audigy 2zs probl

Hi there,
I've been having an issue with my Audigy 2zs card lately. I transferred it into a new computer (worked perfectly in the old one) and now it works flawlessly for some programs and terribly on others. I'll compare 2 games, Il-2 Pacific Fighters and Rome:Total war. Both are extremely hungry games when it comes to system resources and will happily consume every bit of processing power and memory I throw at them! My Sound in IL-2 is flawless, absolutely perfect. However, when I try to play Rome:Total War the sound goes to crap. I get stutters, crackling, distortion, it's so bad it makes the game almost unplayable (at least with sound).
I tried all the suggestions in the sticky; I reinstalled the card, made sure it's not sharing an IRQ with anything else, turned off all the extra hardware, etc. I am at a complete loss as to why it is doing this.
The games I used are just an example of 2, like I said... Some stuff it works fine on, other stuff it is just terrible (same problem though, on the games it doesn't work with) but these were all games that worked fine with it on the other computer. I don't think it's a system wide problem because it is selecti've as to what it works with and what it doesn't. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Are you using AA when playing Rome Total War? If your graphics card bogs down it may also stall the rest of the system including sound. This doesn't happen in all games due their different working nature, but graphics settings may affect sound settings in others. (or it could be the developer wanted to have sound always synchronised with video, but if the graphics card begins to fall behind it will also cause the sound to stutter).
So play around with your graphics settings to see if it hel

PS: Are you getting the problem with all sound options or just with EAX 3.0? Test the other options as well to isolate the problem if possible.

Audigy 2ZS 5.1 speaker settings won't h

I've had a problem numerous times. It involves my Audigy 2ZS (Creative) sound card. What happens is that I'll install the most recent software update (driver and Audio Console) for the card and go through the process of making sure the Creative Audio Console recognizes my card as a 5. speaker system (which it is [Creative]). I also make sure that the box is checked to synchronize with the Control Panel in Windows XP. I then make sure Control Panel is set to 5. also. Almost without fail, within a relati'vely short period of time (day/days), the Creative Audio Console has lost the setting and either has Desktop Stereo or nothing as an option that I can chose from as far as a speaker configuration is concerned. I hope that someone of you forum people can lead me in the right direction. Thanks.
Walter
p.s. one other quickie. Should I get 5 speaker separation on all of my audio output or should I only expect it to get it on PC games?

I'm betting it's your antivirus. Many antivirus programs block registry changes, when when you change the speaker settings, it changes them in the registry. You might check into disabling that and see if it makes a difference.
As for when to expect 5. output, generally when you play something that is 5., you'll get 5. output. Most music for instance is stereo (2.0) so that's what you get when you play it. I suggest turning on "CMSS-3d" which will upmix stereo to 5. for you.
Enjoy!

Frustrated with Audigy 2zs drivers

"Frustrated with Audigy 2zs drivers\ Hi,
I really need some help with drivers for my Aud 2 ZS Plant card as i am very frustrated. A couple of months ago I reformatted my HD and subsequently re-installed all my drivers. When I was ready to install my soundcard drivers\software I could not find my installization disc as I moved to a new place 6 months ago and I guess they got lost in the unpacking. Since then I have tried to find drivers for my card and in the process have?used 3rd party drivers ie. KX, PAX, and daniel_k but could not get them working or they (KX) were hard to understand. Anyway, I am to the point now that I just want to have sound with functioning software where I can get back to doing some hobbyist home recording as I did before with orginal drivers. In saying that, can anyone please point me in the direction to find the most up to date drivers for my card? Iam running WIN XP Pro sp3. I am to the point now that I want to take the card and front dri've bay out of my system, chuck it, and go and buy a $20.00 generic card.
Help would be much appreciated.
Tappy

If you want the latest drivers I'd use Dan K's if I were. None of the old software works with the latest drivers so you're kinda stuffed. Dan K's are based on the 2.8.000 drivers which are the second to latest drivers available. Don't use the 2.8.00 drivers - they cause more problems than they solve.
Before installing any more drivers/software it might be an idea to make sure there's nothing left of any previous drivers you've tried to install. Could be what's causing the problems.
This is how I remove my drivers. May seam a little convoluted but in your case it may prove useful to be as thorough as possible.
You'll need Driver Sweeper, and CCleaner, 7Zip and Dan K's Audigy Support Pack 2.0 (if you don't already have them).
Download these and install; Driver Sweeper, CCleaner and 7Zip.
Now you need to extract all the files out of Dan K's support pack, which should be an *.exe file. You need what's inside that *.exe file. After installing 7Zip, you should see a new 7Zip options menu when you right click on files or folders?
Click on it and then select Extract files to Audigy Support Pack... or something similar. Don't just select Extract files.
Inside the new folder that should have appeared after 7Zip extracted everything, you'll see another folder named Drivers.
Copy this folder to your desktop.
Now reboot and start Windows in safe mode.
Click Start then Run and type cmd.exe to open a command prompt, then type (minus quotes):
" takeown /f C:\Windows\*.cdf " and hit enter, then:
" cacls C:\Windows\*.cdf /G *insert your logon name*:F " and select Y and hit enter again.
You can now close down that command prompt window.
Go in to the Drivers folder you copied to your desktop and run Setup.exe and this should appear:
<img border="0" src="http://theliability.googlepages.com/creative_uninstaller.png">
Select the same options as above and click OK and let it do it's thing - when it says reboot your PC click No or Cancel.
Now run Driver Sweeper and do a scan for all Creative drivers then click Clean.
Don't worry if it says things like file doesn't exist or some other error msg. It'll still get a few things.
No load up Add or Remove Programs (personally I prefer Revo Uninstaller) and remove anything related to Creative.
Finally load CCleaner and scan/clean your registery.
Reboot back in to normal Windows.
And that's it. A tedious process I know, but it's the only way I've found of properly stripping CLs drivers out.
You'll know if it's worked because when you now go and install Dan K's pack the installer should just run straight through. When there's still driver remnants the installer always says it's found previous drivers and need to uninstall them and reboot.
tbh I recommend running through this process regardless of wether or not your choose to stick with the old drivers or go with the newer ones.
Creative's drivers are infamous i'm afraid and at least after this your PC should be relati'vely clear or remnants.

I Have had a problem for ages. I have the Audigy 2 ZS Platinum and Inspire 5. digital 5500.
I have copied the advice I received/didnt recieve from creative.
Best of luck
Dear Martin
Thanks for your reply
I am sorry for the problem you are facing.
To achieve outputs from all the speaker during speaker test, you will need to have an analog connection, or digital DIN connection.
That will be possible if you connect the three line out jacks on your soundcard, to the three audio input (analog jacks->green,black,orange) on your speaker, if it has this connection. Or, you may connect them using Digital DIN, if they have this connection.
If you are using digital connection (coaxial, optical), there will be no way to achieve sound output from all the speakers during 5. speaker test, as they carry stereo signal.

Your soundcard is Audigy 2 ZS
Your speaker is Creative Inspire 5. Digital 5500
You will need to have a 3:3 cable(with the color green, black, orange)
to connect your soundcard to your speaker, to achieve the 5. effects
with games.
Below is the connection:
- Connect line out jack of Audigy 2 ZS
to 'Front' of Creative Inspire 5. Digital 5500 using the green color
connection
- Connect line out 2 jack of Audigy 2 ZS
to 'Rear' of Creative Inspire 5. Digital 5500 using the black color
connection
- Connect line out 3 jack of Audigy 2 ZS
to 'Center/Subwoofer' of Creative Inspire 5. Digital 5500 using the
orange color connection
Once you have done the correct connection, play the game DOOM3.
Ensure you have selected either the EAX or surround option in the game
settings.
Does it work?

As for the PCM out of the above cables, this foxes me as my other

Thanks for your reply
All commercial digital connection eg. optical or coaxial cable will only
carry PCM stereo signal. If you want to output the signal to a surround
5. with extra EAX environment effects, it will not be possible at all
since it is only restricted to stereo channel signal.
As per current industry limitations, we are bound to follow the standard
one-signal output for all our SPDIF and Optical output jacks. This is
something that is currently shared by all vendors for all products.
Please note that all games are not dolby digital, even they are , it
will require certain motherboard to encode it to dolby digital signal,
which our soundcard does not support.
You can only use analog connections to gain true 5. surround for
gaming..

Dear Martin
Thank you for the reply.
Computer games written with support for 3D audio do not require a Dolby
Digital Interacti've Content Encoder (DICE) to output multichannel sound,
with no exceptions. Sound devices that support the real time encoder
technology from Dolby will simply receive the multichannel wave file
output and encode it in real time to a somewhat modified Dolby Digital
bitstream. Creative does not support the Dolby Digital Interacti've
Content Encoder on any of its sound cards.
The only difference between a Sound Blaster card and an audio card that
has a real time encoder, is that you can make a one-wire, digital
connection from your audio card to your home theater receiver and enjoy
discrete multichannel sound from the game. However there will be a
continuous, slight delay, known as "latency", as the encoder is creating
and transmitting the bitstream, and of course the compression scheme
being used is "lossy" (i.e. not bit-accurate).
If you want to enjoy 3D audio in 3D enabled PC games in multichannel
surround sound with a Sound Blaster card, it is recommended that you
connect the analog outputs of the sound card directly to the analog
inputs of the receiver. This will require 3 cables for 5. surround
sound, one for front right and left, one for rear left and right, and
another one for front center and subwoofer. Though it requires more
cables than a real time encoder system, it will not have any latency
issues. When connecting PC audio to a home theater receiver, Creative's
latest sound cards such as Sound Blaster Audigy, Sound Blaster Audigy 2
are likely to provide higher quality audio than any Dolby Digital real
time encode system available for the PC today.

As I said, I can now hear DD5. while within a movie from ALL speakers
BUT
no sound from rears during IN GAME DD5.
I do not use this PC for films only games.

Martin
If you are having a digital connection, it is normal for only get only
front left/right is you use the speaker test option.

Speaker test only outputs from two front speakers?
You mentioned that that you are unable to get any sound from the rear
speakers when playing game right? May i know are you using a digital
connection? May i know what speaker settings have been made under
Creative Speaker settings?
Do get back to me on the above.
Thanks

Operating System: Windows XP Professional x64 Edition

BIOS Type/Revision: 5. 39
System Board/Chipset: ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe
Detailed Problem Description:
I have the above Sound card.
I also own Inspire 5. amp/processor
I Wanted to save money by connecting above sound
card to amp/processor
Connections on sound card made life very difficult
I contacted Creative for help. you told me to buy
an RCA to mini jack cord which also has other connections, from your
web site, (I tried to find
the product number for you, but your sub-menu
system is so poor I couldn't locate the RCA/mini
3.5 /to phono link for you) this cord connects
directly into the digital in, on the sound card (3.5 Mini jack) to the
coaxial input on the
inspire 5. amp/processor.
I have enabled ALL sp-diff settings and digital in
setting on every program/utility/kitchen sink and all.
I have an SP-Diff wire from DVD burner to creative
sound card, and yes its enabled and digital only
is selected.
I can play a DVD and see the inspire 5.
automatically change from Pro-logic to Dolby
digital when it See's an AC-3 stream.
when I try and play ANY game you say has EAX
,2,3,4 I cannot get any sound from my rear
speakers (see above in Dolby Digital ALL speakers
work correctly)
when I enter the set-up menu within the creative
software you supply with the sound card and select
5. speaker, digital only, test the speakers via
the white noise function, all i hear is left and
right noise. no centre, no rears.
I phoned you tech support line, the boy on the
phone didn't have much of a clue about your
product and I had to tell him what connections sit
on the inspire 5. series amp/processor.
I want to build another PC for my son, I want to
add the FX series sound card and amp, but i am not
willing to buy anything until i feel you have
helped me to solve this problem first.
please can you help, I am at the end of my tether
with this sound card.
kind regards

Problems transferring music from turntable to computer with Audigy 2ZS Plse He

I originally had Sound Blaster PC28. I have installed last year Audigy 2ZS with 6 analog plugs and updated regularly. Everything is fine from burning to playing music of any format allowed. However, last week I tried to transfer vinyl music to my computer using Sony Sound Forge Version 8 and nothing works. Here's what I did. Luxman Turntable connected with ground to LINE IN ( in DENON amp ) and in the AUX output I have 2 Monster cables boing to my computer twinned on goldplaited /8 jack which is connected to the second (from right) LINE IN in the sound card. This done while referring to Manual & Getting Started Demo Creative program in the software. NO SOUND AT ALL COMES IN the computer - while the music is playing qell on my audio system player. I've done all kind of adjustment with the Microsoft Volume Play & Recording Controls and with Creative Mixer.
I can only distinguish on Sony Sound Forge two volume bars that there is some faint connection fluttering . I still tried to record but upon playback, there is no visual waving lines illustrated in SoundForge window nor sound played back. I expected that. What am I doing wrong or is Audigy 2ZS not suitable for such ? FYI, I tried the other5 jacks on the sound car ( adjusting to WHAT U HEAR or LINE IN controls ) .
The infos in Creative manual and software demo show the 2nd jack of analog sound card from the right being used as a LINE IN for cassette, synthesizer & cd player ( Iguess it goes also for truntable ? - i tried with cd player and it does not work either ) Third jack from the right is only for microphone (also tried but does not work either) . Sorry for lenghty description, I tried all I could . Am retired 7 yrs old and i wish to transfer all my jazz vinyls to puter inorder to make cds. Kindest to All for your help. Merci beaucoup !

Connections:
Turntable_(out)-->(in)_[Denon phono input w/ RIAA preamp]_(out)-->(in)_[Audigy Line-In (see the user's guide)]
(if you want to play back through Denon amp, --> [Audigy line-out [_(out)-->(in)_[Denon line-in (playback or aux-in)].
Software settings:
Creative CT Mixer
- enable Wave and Line-In sources, set level to 50-00%
- set .Rec source to AnalogMix(), set level to 50-00%
- find the best levels (I normally have these set as: line-in = 70% (.rec = 00% if not using ASIO drivers))
SoundForge:
- (depending on device driver mode you're using and which A2ZS model you have there), set input to AnalogMix() (w/ ASIO) or just select the one meant for Line-In,
- set recording levels
