Audio Stream Recorder Prob

Have Audigy 2 Platinum Pro & XP Pro. Wish to set up timed recording of streaming radio broadcast. Audio Stream Recorder status window shows recording status as "Audio device is already being used by another program." No other audio/video program is running. Do have, however, Windows Media Player 9, Quick Time alternati've, Real player alternati've & Media Center installed; but none are running. How can I find out what program is interfering with the Creative Audio Stream Recorder? Is there a file association issue? Many thanks for all comments/suggestions!

I have the same issue. I updated to the latest software, to no avail. My first suspicion is that some Microsoft patch caused this, but I cannot verify this.
Apparently no one at Creative is very interested in this issue.

  • Audio Stream Recorder - Error: Audio device is already being used by another prog

    I realized that Audio Stream Recorder is does not "work" through server list feature. So I am simply trying to use the manual method of adding URL's to the interface. However regardless of the type of stream, shoutcast, windows media or real audio, I receive the error "audio device is already being used by another program". Does anyone know how to fix this? I have closed my audio application etc to no avail. <RANT WARNING> I was very excited about using this application when I read about it. However an application that provides none of the stated features is not an application, its false advertising, since it clearly states on the box, help files and website this products "features". Anyway, it'ss very disappointing. Also, does anyone know what the supported steaming formats are, the help file say the application requires RealONE and Windows Media Player but does not mention audio stream formats? Thanks you in advance for any help.

  • Audio Streamer Recorder content directory failing upd

    Trying to update content directory. Keeps failing. Firewall etc off. Any suggestions?

    If I remember correctly:
    original Audio Stream Recorder came with my (old) Audigy2
    Audio Stream Recorder 2 came with my (not too old) Zen USB 2.0
    When I get home on the weekend, I'll see if I can rip the app from the Zen's CD. Let me know if this is of interest to anyone here.<SPAN class=time_text>
    <SPAN><B><SPAN>macattak</B>
    <SPAN>I would like to record from a radio station on line. Can I still or actually do this?
    <SPAN>------------------------------------
    I would try using Media Source recording source "What you hear." Note that there is no timer to automatically start/stop the recording.

  • Audio Stream Recorde

    hi,
    when I open it asks for content update so i click update, but an error message pops up saying 'content directory update failed'

    The content partner who supplied the updates went out of business some time ago, so there will be no updated listings in Audio Stream Recorder.

    I don't think so. Creative's product CD installation seems to support Windows OS only.

  • Satellite A100: audio stream recorder requires something called stereo mix

    Trying to use an audio stream recorder/convertor program but it requires something called "stereo mix". The toshiba A100 does not appear to have this?? Help?
    Tried downloading latest drivers from Tosh site for Realtek sound card but this has not made a difference.

    Here's how to fix the problem.
    1. You need a new driver in order to control the input signal given by any hardware (CD) or virtual source (WinAmp, streaming radio etc.). The driver you need is called Virtual Audio Cable that's able to connect and loop back any audio signal between any devices on your computer. You can check it out in a demo version before you buy it (price $30). Get more information and download it here: http://nrcde.ru/music/software/eng/vac.html
    2. After instalation read and follow the "Simple cable usage" part of the manual very carefully and you're ready to record on your virtual recorder from any source you want. Please notice you have to have the "Audio repeater" open (and started) in order to hear the output on your computer speakers. If you have set up the Virtual Cable 1 to control your audio input, it should be chosen as Wave in in the Audio Repeater and Realtek HD Audio output should be chosen as Wave out. This is set automatically if you In control panel/sounds and devices/devices chose Virtual Cable 1 as standard device for record of sounds instead of Realtek HD Audio input and Realtek HD Audio output as standard device for playing sound.
    3. Virtual Audio Cable mix any audio input including the Windows sounds. Select no sounds in Control panel/Sound and devices/sounds if you don't want to mix Windows sounds with your recording.
    4. Advanced functions: You can manipulate and optimize the sound quality in the cable and audio repeater setup.
    That's all - have fun
    Sincerely Cornelius
    PS. I have proved that my Satelite A100 can do the same as any other Windows computer with the Realtek driver instaled. It's the first time I have purchased third party software in order to get basic Windows sound functions to work.

  • Audio Stream Recorder 2 Content Update Ha

    Since the Content Update doesn't work and every time I load up Audio Stream Recorder 2 it pops up this:
    Content Update
    Audio Stream Recorder needs to connect to the internet now and retrieve updated content directory.
    |_| Automatically retrieve updated content directory
    I'm hoping someone knows if it is possible to either hack a config file or the windows registry and specify the last update date so loading the program up doesn't have to keep popping this up.
    I'm a programmer though I work with websites and python so its not like I can hack the program or try and create a patch for it. Creative should think about creating a patch for it or releasing information on how to hack this date.
    If I don't see a response to this in about a week or so I'll think about looking into the registry and whatever creative config/ini files exist and seeing if I can find a way to solve this problem. I'm hoping someone knows already because I don't really have a huge amount of time to waste. And if I can't get it to work I'll go back to using winamp to stream di.fm. I could care less about the recording built into the Audio Stream Recorder, what good is it to record a 56K quality MP3 anyways.

    I have the program installed and it works well. Entering the IP address for the server was confusing. Enter the IP address followed by /listen.pls The extension will allow the program to accept the address for the server. Hope this hel
    ps.
    You can only enter 30 stations. Take you pick of stations from shoutcast. Find a station you like and right click on the tune in button. Save the file to some folder and give it a new name. Open the file in some word processing program to find the http address. Copy the address to the URL line space -- add /listen.pls. Gi've the Channel a name. It works for me.

  • Audio stream recorder with Audigy 2 Plati

    I have never been able to get the audio stream recorder to work. I've used creative's online update, so everything is current, but when I tell the stream recorder to update the content directory, it just tells me the update failed. I've never been able to use this thing as it's never downloaded any content. I've also pasted in the URL to the stream I'm trying to record, but it doesn't work. Any advice?

    I found the information I was looking for, apparently the server service Creative was using shut down, and though the stream recorder was a component advertised with this line, they never came up with a replacement. It is unfortunate that this is the kind of support I've come to expect from Creative.

  • Multiplex a mpeg2 video and audio stream recorded via a satellite receiver

    I would like to know if upgrading to QuickTime pro and/or adding the QuickTime MPEG2 add-on would allow me to multiplex a mpeg2 video and audio stream recorded via a European satellite receiver (like the Aston Xena 1800 HDU) in order to make movies that can later on be converted to be viewed on my iPod.
    Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    No. The MPEG-2 component is to play MPEG-2 not encode it.
    Use Toast. I assume you have separate audio and video transport streams, if they are named identically (1.m2v and 1.m2a) Toast will detect that and multiplex into a new MPEG-2. If not , add the video stream to Toast, which will ask for an audio stream to go with it. Either way it makes an MPEG-2 anew.
    Of course you cannot use MPEG-2 in iPod so rip that DVD (Toast can make just an image and you can mount that) to get the VOB file, then use MPEG Streamclip or iSquint to convert the muxed MPEG-2 file to MP4 suitable for iPod.
    Note I am very curious - are you sure this device delivers separate audio and video streams? Not a proper muxed MPEG-2 file? If the latter then just MPEG Streamclip or iSquint will do.

  • Audio stream - record and listen simultaneously

    Hi!
    I would like to record and listen RTP stream simultaneously, but I don't know how... I can record to a file OR listen in headphone but just separately.
    If i create a datasink for recording on a port I cannot use that port to listen. But in this case how can I listen the audio stream on headphone?
    Maybe the good solution would be for me if I could clone the stream but I cannot do, because I get an exception
    javax.media.NoProcessorException: Cannot find a Processor for: com.ibm.media.protocol.CloneablePushBufferDataSource@1d8957fThis is the code:
    DataSource ds = Manager.createCloneableDataSource(Manager.createDataSource(media_locator));
    processor = Manager.createRealizedProcessor(new ProcessorModel(ds, formats, outputType));Has anybody got any idea?
    Thanks!

  • Midi instrument to audio track recording prob.

    Im Trying to record a midi (instrument) track to an audio track. I have created the sound using the FM8 synth... There is one parameter on FM8 that wont record automation (morph grid) so to get the effect I need to record it in as a real audio file. So I bus the instrument track out to bus 1, then i take the audio track and make that audio bus 1... levels seem to come up yet for some reason when i record it doesnt record anything despite there seeming to be a level coming up.. any suggestions? Ive been searching the manual for hours

    I was afraid that was the case...Thankyou for taking note of the performance issue and answering my real question, cuz i have an automation problem which im told is a bug and have a work around for now but still no live automation and if i do live auto. it will record it but i cant hear any of the old automation as im doing it making it kinda useless at many times... but anyways.... so it appears as my two options are to re-route it out externally (but then wont that still only leave me one real pass of automation via midi) cuz if i am still able to modulate the regular audio via live in on the synth using the audio... then that would work... but Im still not sure if i would be able to record the audio file on a midi track (ill have to try that unless someone knows)... if that were the case then i could just bounce the file to audio and modulate everything using the synths as effects?? do you know if they can do that on Native instrument synths?

  • Creative Audio Stream Recorder 2 Miss

    Hi all...... I just purchased an Audigy 2 zs and the Steam Recorder package seems to be missing from the software. I installed the full package and also tried a manual install. In the manual install the recorder was not listed as an option. Have I missed something? Is this package not included anymore ? Can I download it somewhere?
