Audigy Platinum (headphones/remote contr

I read that when you plug in the headphones in the front panel,the speakers are automatically muted,but when i plug mine in,nothing happens.
When the headphones are plugged in i can hear a 'hiss',but the audio is still coming from the speakers.
I read through the forum and there is suppossed to be a tab in Audio Consol to enable this,but i do not have the tab. I have also reinstalled the software and updated the drivers.
The other problem i have is that when i start up my PC i get an error message saying that it cannot find the remote control reciever.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Entertainment Center is most likely found in the installation CD (X:\Audio\EntCntr\), I don't know if the A4Pro software can be installed individually, but if?you can't, copy the whole CD to the HDD and then copy engine32.cab from X\Audio\Setup\ to the app installation dir. If you no longer have the installation CD, download the ISO from BadBoy's page. http://badboy.hub.io/?You can try RMX automation, its a free program that lets you configure the buttons in the remote: http://sourceforge.net/projects/rmx/?

Audigy 4 Pro - Remote Contr

Hey,?I've got an Audigy 4 Pro card which i've had from new since 2005.However, i've only ever had the remote control working once, around about the time i first installed the card. Since then it's not worked. I'm currently running the latest drivers and mediasource 5, and still not getting remote control. I've been told i need Creative Media Centre, and i need to enable the remote, but A) i dont know where to get media centre since it's not on the downloads site for the Audigy 4 Pro. and B) i've tried looking for the "remote control" tab in media source, but to absolutely no avail. Can anyone tell me how i'm supposed to get my remote control working again? please?Martin

Headset no longer works with Audigy Platinum dr

I have a Logitech headset that plugs into the headphone and mic jacks on the Audigy Platinum dri've. On Saturday I had to do some work in my computer, so I disconnected the dri've from the card to get the data cable out of the way.
This may not be related (I hope not), but I plugged my floppy dri've in wrong and fried the floppy dri've and melted the wire to the PSU. I got a new floppy dri've and PSU. I don't believe the sound card or Platinum dri've were effected because they both work fine otherwise.
Anyway I no longer get any sound from my headphones when they're plugged into the dri've, but do get sound when they're plugged into the Creative Labs remote control for my speakers. I get no sound from my mic when it's plugged into the mic jack on the Platinum dri've either. I haven't tested it with another jack yet, but assume it'd work.
I also notice in my Windows mixer, that the option for Line In/Mic 2 is no longer there, either in the main part, or under Recording. Line In/Mic 2 is the mic jack on the Platinum Dri've.
The Platinum dri've works fine otherwise. I can use the firewire port on it and I know it's receiving power because I can see the red light in the optical connector. To be sure, I went back inside my computer and doublechecked the connections. It IS hooked up properly.
How can I get the jacks to work again, short of uninstalling/reinstalling the driver? I don't think this is necessary because the sound works otherwise. Thanks all!

The Audigy dri've works from three different cables. One is the power cable, one is the IEEE394 cable, and the last is the data cable. If the power cable and IEEE394 cables are connected, but the data cable is not fully seated, you will see power from the optical output and the 394 port will work, but the inputs and outputs will not work or be seen by the Windows mixer.
I would definitely try reseating that data cable. Also make sure that none of the pins are bent. If that doesn't work, you may want to try moving the card to different slots.

Replacement for Inspire 5700 + Creative Audigy Platinum

Hi,
for many years I have been using a combination of a Creative Audigy Platinum soundcard with a Creative Inspire 5.1 Digital 5700 speaker system. I am very pleased with the quality, compatibility and easy-to-useness of this system. For games and music, I let the soundcard do the decoding and send the bits via digital connection to the Inspire system, which I set to 5.1 DIN. For DVDs, I send everything via SPDIF and let the Inspire do the decoding, either DTS or Dolby digital. Works just perfectly.
Only problem: if everything works according to the plan, I will move from Europe to the States in two months and stay there for - 3 years. Because desktop computers and probably also my Inspire 5700 system are quite tricky to ship, I decided to buy a laptop here and buy another speaker system by creative after I have a arrived in the states. Full of anticipation I checked this site to choose my future system and ... was struck by shock:
I couldn't find any system which offered the same features as the Digital 5700! All modern systems lack digital input, leave alone an external decoder and have primitive wire-remotes instead of real remotes! Why has this kind of great system disappeared? Of course you cannot buy the good old 5700 anymore, which leaves me with a great problem of how to organize a system which offers similar quality and features.
I originally planned to connect my laptop (ASUS A8JS) via S/PDIF to the new inspire 5.1 speaker set, which would then do the job of decoding digital audiostreams coming from DVDs. But well, since the new Inspire sets neither support S/PDIF nor offer external decoding, that idea has been flushed down the toilet
What do you recommend instead? I guess I will need a USB Sound Blaster in combo with an inspire speaker set. What will provide the same quality to what I had? What are the drawbacks of not having digital connections any more? How can I control sound levels of the subwoofer, center and rearspeakers, if there is no external decoder anymore? Only via software?
Thank you very much for any advice!

Thank you very much for your helpful replies! Future looks much brighter now
Where have you found the Audigy 2 NX? On their webpage, creative only list the USB Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Video Editor or the Sound Blaster Live! 24-bit External as USB-solutions. Since I don't need the video editing capability, the Audigy 2 ZS would probably be quite an overkill. Still, the price difference between Audigy ($250) and Life! ($50) is ... drastic! Besides the video stuff and some connections, what else is the Life! solution missing? Does it have poor quality? Is there no real 3D sound, just some kind of upmixing? It's not very clear from the specifications.
The Logitech Z-5500 Digital looks very promising, too. A consequent improvement of the Inspire D-5700, just by the competition I may go for that one, but probably still need an external soundcard for 3D-sound in games.
I am not exactly an expert considering connections. So, my laptop will already have digital S/PDIF built into the headphone plug. Just from the look, I'd say this is the same kind of plug which is called "Analog/Digital-Out" on my old Audigy sound card. Now, the logitech system supports digital optical or digital coaxial as source input. Will this work with the S/PDIF headphone out, or would it require the DIN connection you mentionned? Could this be easily solved by buying an adaptor?
Looking at the picture showing the connections of the SB Life! I again am not clear at all what kind of connections there are (http://us.creative.com/products/prod...Specifications ). Is there anything compatible with the Logitech system? I guess it's no question the Audigy2 ZS is equipped with the required connections.
So, to summarize my question: could I digitally connect either my laptop or the SB Live! 24-bit external with the Logitech Z-5500, so that the latter would take care of decoding Dolby Digital and DTS sound, while the sound blaster would provide EAX and 3D sound for games?
I have also seen that Creative Labs still offers an external decoder with a lot of connection possibilities. It's just no longer part of a speaker system, but rather a standalone product: the Creative Decoder DDTS-100 for $30. Together with a good speaker system, this may be an alternative to the logitech solution, in terms of enabling to plug in other devices than just a computer (another thing I really loved about my old system).
Well, again thank you very much for your advice!

Dolby 5.1 with Windows 7 using an Audigy Platinum EX

Hello.
Long story short.
I've mashed together three old PC's to make one reasonably ok one as a media center.
I have an old MSI motherboard, running an AMD XP 2.GB Chip with .25GB of Ram and an AGP Video card (Soon to be upgraded to an ATI 4850 AGP Card with HDMI out.
My trusty Audigy Platinum EX has been re used (again!) and after finding some drivers, everything seems to be ok!
What's the problem you ask?
I cant seem to get true 5. surround, via the on board optical out (speaker calibration wont play front centre, sub or rear speakers.)
I'm running the lot through a Creative 5. Inspire speaker system (using the optical input) if i let the Inspire system sort out the sound, I can get surround, but only if i switch on the 5. manually, and like I said, it won't play via the speaker test in windows or the creative consul on screen.
Am I missing something real simple, or is this an issue anyone else has had dealings with?
Also (as if that weren't enough) there doesn't seem to be any support for the EAX and ESS systems, and I cant use the remote control that came with the Platinum EX.
If anyone can offer any sugestions, I'd be most grateful.
With Thanks.
Andrew. (UK)

SB Audigy Platinum Microphone Line2/Mic2 settings h

I have the original SB Audigy Platinum that includes the external bay device. When plugging a headset into the headphone and line2/mic2 connectors, the headphones work and the microphone on the headset does not. I have done some investigation and it appears that the default audio in device is the microphone. I believe that the microphone points to the mic in connector on the PCI soundcard. If I use the Sound Mixer I can manually change the audio in from microphone to line/mic2 and the headset microphone works. However if I stop the using the microphone and then try and use it again I discover that the setting has been changed back to microphone. So everytime we want to use the microphone we must go to the sound mixer and manually make the change. Is there anyway to save the setting line2/mic2 to make it permanent? One of the reasons for having the external bay device to allow the headet to be connected and disconnected without reaching around the back. I am tryng to make this easy for my wife to use (with Skype) without the hassle of the extras ste
ps.
Thanks.

Jeremey, thanks for your reply. This is one of those classic issues where the application folk (like IM clients and Skype) say to ask the SB folk what can be done and you (the SB folk) ask if the application owners can change their applications. So I am exploring options. Gi'ven that we don't use the 'mic in' (mic - microphone) connector on the PCI card, is there any way to reset the Audigy so that the external bay line/mic2 can be recognized as mic or the microphone? Perhaps there's a jumper or soft switch setting? Otherwise, is there anyway at all from the SB side (card, jumpers, drivers, Creative apps) to set the microphone to line2/mic2? Like I say I am looking for ideas from the SB side.
Thanks again for your reponse.

Audigy Platinum Ex Line In Quest

I recently re-installed my Soundblaster Audigy Platinum Ex card on a new hard dri've - it's worked properly in the past. I have run the installation cd and gone to the Soundblaster website for all the latest drivers. On my external module I am unable to get audio to input through the line-ins to (Aux in 2, Mic/Aux 2, and 394). No monitor, no capture (though the headphone jack works properly, and the standard soundcard works properly). I've checked my connections. I'm very experienced with audio software and have been unable to figure this out.
The one thing that might fix this that I am unable to find - is there a control panel setting somewhere that verifys that input should be coming through the ex Module? Any advice would be greatly appreciated....

Hi there " bucktoothmummy". I just recieved this same problem today. Tryed to solve it via software updates and messing with IRQ stuff. None of that helped. I desperately tryed every line-in port there is and suddenly I heard loud static coming from the speakers.
What I found out was that the cable (the wide one) on the backpanel has been someway corrupted, and needed only a few twitches (pull it up and down). So the problem in my case was purely the low quality of the jack OR the cable. The ports them selves are just fine.
Email me if you wish to ask some more, hope this helps

Audigy platinum pinouts for dri

I have an original Audigy platinum with the connections for a dri've bay - which I did not purchase. My new case allows for a front panel microphone and headphone (as well as other connections) in addition to the back panel ones. After installing the audigy card in it - these connections no longer work =(
Since the dri've bay comes with mircorphoone and headphone outputs - I assume there are appropriate pins on the dri've bay connection that (if identified) - could be connected to my computers froont panel enabeling the use of these with the audigy card and not just the sound system proved with the mobo. Does someone have accurate information about the pinouts for the dri'vebay that are on the Audigy card? And, would you be gracious enough to supply me with this information.
Thanks,
Jim

Greetings again and thank you Jeremy for the fast response - FYI I did look for this information on the web before coming here to post. Based on what I gathered from the article you attached was that: . I could connect my front panel headset connections to pins 0, and 2 ( General purpose output , general purpose output 2 and ground) (or should they go to the ones labeled spdif?) 2. I could connect the microphone connections to pins 5 and 6 (spdif input signal and ground) I hate to be a pain but I really don't feel like messing up anything either and maybe a moment of your time can save me a lot of issues later.

No longer able to select speaker type in Surround Mixer (Audigy Platinum Win XP P

Hi, all. I have an Audigy Platinum. Normally I have no issues using my 5. speakers with this card; however, today I noticed my sound was "tinny" and the reason is that the surround mixer is locked on Headphones. I cannot click the arrow to change it to 5. surround or anything else for that matter. I've gone into Control Panel and unchecked the mute other speakers when headphones are plugged in option, but that hasn't seemed to help. Any other ideas?Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply. That did the trick.

Using an Audigy Platinum Live Drive bay with Windows 7

6Using an Audigy Platinum Li've Dri've bay with Windows 7` I bought this card/bay a long time ago:

In XP and possibly in Vista I could get basic functions out of the card, but the EAX control panel didn't really work anymore. I used to use the remote control, plug in my guitar and use effects, etc. I'd really like to be able to do that again. Anyone know?

Install & configure lirc with an audigy platinum

Hello all the community,
Actually I try to configure lirc to manage my remote.
I'm using an audigy platinum 2zs pro, with an rm-1500 remote.
It worked when I was on debian, I just follow this : http://alexandre.touret.free.fr/dotclea … tinium-pro [fr]
But actually I can't locate the problem, I first installed with pacman and now this the source, using the livedrive_midi driver in the configure.
After configure, make & make install I did :
$ echo -e '\360\000\040\041\141\000\000\000\177\000\367' > /dev/snd/midiC0D1
# /usr/local/sbin/lircd -d /dev/snd/midiC0D1 -H livedrive_midi
$ irw
Irw work but when I push some buttons, nothing append.
In the log (var/log/lircd) :
May 10 05:43:15 mars lircd: lircd(livedrive_midi) ready
May 10 05:43:18 mars lircd: accepted new client on /dev/lircd
May 10 05:43:27 mars lircd: removed client
I read, that a led is supposed to turn on when the hub is ready.
I'm a little bit lost because everything seems to be correct.
Thx for help.

Yes when you compile from the source, binary are in the /usr/local.
In fact I just solved the problem, but I can't explain how. I tried to install lirc with a live cd of kubuntu, and it works, the led of the hub started lighting, after I come back to arch and it works again without any changes.
A little miracle

Audigy Platinum

Hi
I have purchased from E-bay. The seller did not have a remote control, nor the software bundle. Where can I download software / instructions etc, or where can I purchase these items.
Problem, when I plug my guitar into the console I don't get sound through the computer. What am I doing wrong? It works OK when plugged into the mic input.
Thanks in advance.

Long time ago that i post on this forum(96khz.tk isn't used for years LOL).
Anyway here i go.
I downgraded soundcard. I had Audigy2zs, but now i use Audigy Platinum EX (refurbush, but with internal audigy dri've bay) .
So no DVD-A player that the Audigy2zs had(DVD-A mediasource).
But i discovered that PowerDVD7 can play DVD-A (Also Foobar2000 with dvdadecoder plugin).
My question is this: I thought that the Audigy Platinum EX was 96KHz/24bit.
I read on internet that the digital audio processor downmix to 48KHz/6bit. Is this true?
Also I can play DVD-A on it (i use powerdvd7, since DVD-A mediasource player isn't supported with Audigy Platinum EX) and as output i use S/P-dif(digital audio to 5. amplifier s/p-dif input) . And it plays advanced resolution 92KHz/24bit. Or powerdvd7 plays it, and i got sound out of the amplifier that's connected with s/p-dif.
But how does the soundcard manage it's is it bad forthe card, since it should support up to 96KHz/24bit's Or does the soundcard downsample the 92KHz/24bit to 44.KHz/6bit on s/p-dif output, like what people experienced with Audigy cards).

Monitoring sound with Audigy Platinum

I recently dusted off an old Audigy Platinum eX I had bought a few years ago. I installed it on a machine I want to use for digital recording (guitars, vocals, etc) but I cannot seem to be able to get a signal to the computer. I am using the breakout box and the headphone output works fine but when I plug my guitar preamp to the Aux Line 2 inputs I can't seem to get any signal to the computer - the Line/Mic In input on the breakout box broke long ago so I can't even try that. Does anyone know if there's a trick to being able to monitor the signal out of my speakers? I had this working a few months ago when I uninstalled this card from an old computer. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

No comments on this?
Just hoping someone will be able to help me so I can use my audio files once again.

Help! audigy platinum

hi all, today i bought an audigy platinum pro, its installed and sounds great, but i have a couple of probs......i have just a 2. analogue set of speakers for now, connested to the card. but with the card i got an external box and remote control. but the box and remote arent working! the green power light is on, but thats it. i connected a mic up to it and opened up cubasis but there is no sound. its like its just dead......is this because i havent got digital speakers connected up, or have i done something wrong!? please help!!!

It sounds like you haven't configured the whole deal. You'll find information on how to do it in each of the program or software help files.

Audigy 2 ZS Remote control (RM-1500) and DVD-player. (Need he

I've got Audigy 2 ZS platinum with remote RM-500, but software included in package allows to play only DVD-audio. Creative recomend to install InterVideo DVD 5 to play video DVD with Creative Audio-DVD program.
I've got InterVideo DVD 6 Platinum, but it doesn't controlled by RM-500 (there is no problems with my logitech Cordless keyboard with media buttons). As I found out there is differens in buttons menu: Creative use Enter for play, Spase bar for Pause, ect., but standart windows programs use Ctr+P and Ctr+Shift+P.
Does Creative have patch that solve this problem. To have remote that cann't contol DVD player (exept Audio DVD) is useless stuff.

Skeleton,
Have you added the DVD player software to the external applications listing under the remote control tab in MediaSource settings. The controls on the remote are mapped to the keys as defined by Microsoft. If the program is compliant to this then it should work.
