Connecting 5700 with laptops' only digital AND analog output

Hi everyone!
Although I'm an experienced creative user this is the first time I'm posting. I looked trough the forums but I couldn't find any answer to my question and I hope this is not the "n"th time it is asked...
I have Inspire 5700 Digital speakers and I recently bought a Sony VAIO VGN-FES laptop, with an Intel 945PM Express chipset, which features Intel HD audio. In the sound setup utility of Sigmatel HD audio, there is even an option to enable digital SPDIF output, which I enabled. But when I connect the digital din cable to my laptops only output jack (headphones...) I have no sound at all...
I thought that it may be due to the fact that the jack is not digital only. But I still want to have real digital 5.1 audio. So could anyone tell me how I can do that?
Thanks beforehand!

Addlclove,
in the sony forums the answer I recieved was that the headphone jack was normally 2.1 analog, but I didn't receive a fulfilling answer to my query about the reason to the spdif setting in the setup utility and the chipsets features. That's why I came here The only output I have on the computer is the one for the headpohes. But there is a docking station that I could buy, having an optical out.
And Jason-CL,
You're right, I used to have an Audigy, and I understand that you're saying that I can't do it through the headphone jack, right?

  • Breakoutbo​x for Digital and Analog Output

    Hallo everybody
    i need  to design a breakout box with BNC and SMD connectors for Digital and Analog output (the DAQ cards we use are  PXI-6723 for analog and PXI 6259 mostly for the digital an fast AO Channels) I am looking for tutorials and info material for that. On what I have to pay attention what would be a good circuit diagramm design and so on.
    Maybe you could give me some tips where I can find good Material about that.

    Hello Sebastian
    first of all I'll need some more information about your intention. What exactly are you going to do? Do you want to connect, or divide signals? (Which signals?)
    Maybe if you have a look in the manuals of the cards, you'll get closer to this. Here you can find out the pin assignment of the cards.

    U must have synced with your library on your laptop thereby erasing the school apps , the only way to get them back on is by taking it back to school and get them to reinstall them back on using there library.

  • Can digital and analog channels be simultaneously accessed

    Hi,
    Is it possible to simultaneously access digital and analog channels on
    a Multifunction DAQ (such as NI-4351) by issuing commands from parallel
    threads using LabWindows/CVI (5.5.1)?
    John.

    Hi JAH,
    I have no experiance with this product, so can not give you a definative answer.
    The best I can do is to suggest you try it, if it does not work then you most likely can not do what you want.
    Also what version of the driver are you using, I have checked the
    download page and version 2.1 only works for CVI 6 or higher and LV 7
    or higher.

  • Array of different (digital and analog) values into multigraph

    Hello everyone,
    So I have an array with a timestamp on the first column, either "off" or "on" string on the second column, and a number value string on another. The columns are based of variables that reads data based on an update rate. My question is, what is the easiest way to separate these values into a digital and analog graphs. This is because the number values are so high that the "off" and "on" signal is being pushed down as the y-axis auto-scales. I'm hoping that I can use a multigraph, but the multigraph puts the data in one graph (since it's one array). 
    Any suggestions or help is appreciated.

    Hi jachy25, 
    Below is a link to a KnowledgeBase article that goes over how to use stacked plots in LabVIEW.
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/21E8163F259DA2058625703B007511AA
    The second link contains a lot of general information on configuring graphs and charts in LabVIEW, and is a useful document to have when configuring plots.

    Also where exactly on the laptop is teh data stored.
    Thank you!!

    go to 'Edit' in the menu bar. Then choose 'Preferences'.
    you'll see a pop-up and there's a tab called 'Devices' there. If you click that, you will be able to check a box that says 'prevent automatic syncing for iPods, iPads and iPhones' or something like that.
    Hope this helps
    NB: if you don't even see the menu bar that has options like 'File, Edit, View, etc', first click the black/white square button on the top left of your screen, and then click 'show menu bar'. It should pop right up.
    Good luck

  • Problem Receiving Digital and Analog Channels- 22LV610U

    I have a LCD/DVD combo TV model 22LV610U and had satellite tv for over a year and the tv worked great! After shutting off the satellite, I wanted to only receive the local channels via antenna. I bought a new RadioShack Indoor TV antenna ( to receive basic UHF, VHF and FM radio signals to HDTV and FM HD Radio signals)...
    After setting it up, I still only saw snow...I tried setting up the channels through the menu, and was not picking up any signals. I was also unable to view the "DTV Settings" options for Digital Signal...
    Do I need a different kind of antenna? I called Toshiba customer service and was told the HDTV antenna would not be compatible, however, ALL channels are now digital and must be received through this kind of antenna...
    Help, Im in a pickle Thanks!

    If you are using a STB, then you should connect it with an HDMI cable or component cable as you did.
    However, you do not need to autoprogram your TV if you are using an HDMI or component or composite or any other indirect connection. That is because the STB is acting as the tuner; it will automatically receive channel information as part of its on-screen graphics. All the HDMI connection is doing is delivering that video feed to your TV.
    Therefore, what you need to do is press the "input" button on your TV remote and select HDMI, or component, whatever you are using. Then you control the channels using your STB remote, not your TV remote, which changes the channels on your STB, not your TV. Again, your TV is only receiving the video from your STB, it's not directly changing the channel itself. It's like having a VCR and turning your TV to channel 3 in the old days; you just need to pick up the video.
    The reason why, when you tried hooking the TV up directly to the wall with coax is because most FiOS programming is encrypted digital. That is why the STB is needed to "unscramble" the channels and output them to your TV along with all of its on-screen graphics and program guide. Therefore, if you connect coax directly to the TV, the only channels you will receive are local channels (i.e. CBS, NBC, PBS), the ones that Verizon cannot by law encrypt. The reason why some of those channels are "16-2" or "17-214" is because digital broadcasting, as opposed to analog (think the digital transition last summer) uses "sub-channels," which are the -XXX. Verizon can assign whatever number they want to their encrypted programming (i.e. ESPN HD can be 214-1445) because the STB will read that channel and display it within it's own system as Ch. 570.

  • Digital and analog in at the same time

    Hello Group,
    how do I simultaneously and synchonously aquire (read) data from digital and
    analogue channels? In the Manual there are just chapters for aquiring one of
    both at a time and I also can't see a function in the menu for that.
    Thanx
    Frank

    Frank,
    Depending on the DAQ hardware you have you may have issues with simultaneously acquiring data even on your analog channels. Our MIO (Multifunction Input/Output) DAQ cards have one analog to digital converter (ADC) and a multiplexor is used to scan all of the input channels. There will be a slight interchannel delay and you will not have truely simultaneously acquired data (loss of phase will occur). In order to perform true simultaneous acquisition you will need one of our SIO (Simultaneous Input/Output) cards.
    Furthermore, our DAQ driver, NI-DAQ, is not multithreaded. Meaning, you have to pay close attention to what calls you make into the DLL, or to what VIs you are using, if LabVIEW is your development environment. For instance, AI_Read is
    a blocking call, meaning if you ask for 10 bytes of data it will block all other calls until 10 bytes have been acquired. So even if you write a multithreaded application to perform analog and then digital acquisition you will have to not ask for so much that you will be blocking for great periods of time.
    I agree with Ben's comment that one solution would be to pass your digital inputs to an analog input and use a SIO card to simultaneously acquire data. However, depending on what these DIO inputs will be used for this may not be a suitable option for you.

  • Optical digital and analog audio out

    I just purchased a Pavilion 500-214 with IDT High Def Audio CODEC / DTS Sound+
    Is it possible to get both opitcal digital audio out and analog (speakers/headphones) out at same time?  Stereo amp needs access to both for multizone/source function.  I can manually pick one or the other before playback - it is clunky in that when switching audio out devices the active will turn off but one switching to does not always turn on.  But i really need  both simultaneously active for amp to work properly.  I have also found rear speaker jack to be more stubborn during switching than front headphone jack.
    This question was solved.

    Hi zombi1,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I have done some research on whether or not one can utilize both digital or analogue audio out at the same time, and unfortunately this is not possible.

  • Internet connection problem with MacPro, only. PC fine

    I have a Netgear 600n.  My notebooks, Vista PC and MacPro, are connected to it.  There is no connection problem with the PC, but there is with the MacPro.  Weekly, I have to delete the "system configuration file," or it keeps dropping the connection.  I heard it had to do with Windows configuring the netgear router.  is this true and is there a solution.  I use the PC and the Mac at the same desk, so there is no location issue.
    Thanks!!

    Some operators block the option to use your phone as a modem, as this will use up a lot of data. It might be worth checking your contract to see if it mentions anything about data use, or give your operator a call to see if they have any limitations.
    Please try to use the phone with a different SIM card to see if this is related to your operator after all, or if it's something else. If it doesn't work with a different SIM card either, try the following to see if the issue lies in Nokia Suite or in the phone itself: 
    Install Nokia Suite on a different computer or laptop and check if you can use your phone as a modem on that computer. If this works, try reinstalling Nokia Suite on your current computer and see if this makes a difference. 
    If this doesn't work, try connecting a different Nokia device to Nokia Suite and try to use it as a modem. If you can connect a different phone with your SIM card to the modem but connecting with yout 6700 Classic fails,  then please visit a local care centre where your phone can be checked on any errors. 
    You can find a care centre by going to your local Nokia web page and clicking on Support.

  • File Server Slowdown with Illustrator(only) saving and opening

    Hello,
    I have a problem i have been struggling with for years.
    When we save a file to the server, the time to open, save or export can be anywhere from 1-5 minutes. Its killing our productivity.
    I have changed out every component. We have Eight illustrator CS3 13.0.2 users on C2D/i3/i7 iMacs running 10.6.7. They are connecting to a Mac 10.6.7 Server with AFP - mac mini 2.53 with a lacie 5 drive raid.
    We have had this problem going back to at least 10.4.6 i think it was.  (I did not write good troubleshooting logs back then)
    What appears to be happening:
    open a file in the finder or in illustrator
    if a font is missing, it immedialy pings you, so its like illustrator looks at the files and then is looking for something else  (problem exists if no fonts are present)
    the mouse then beach balls and illustrator shows as not responsive
    the server shows some activity on the cpu/network/hard drive side but its very minor. like a get info command on lots of files
    local user shows very little to no activity
    then it stops doing nothing after the few minutes and it opens quickly.
    the content of the files does not effect the problem. A 10 meg files with lots of stuff takes maybe 4 minutes vs 3 min 50 seconds for a empty file
    my solution so far:
    I can clear the problem by running a script that deletes the illustrator prefs, mediabrowser.plist, deletes illustrator cache files, deletes apple quarantie events, bridge prefs. and a restart. Then files open in under 5 seconds. After a couple of hours or some times a day, the open times creep up to a minute, after a few days, they are 2-5 minutes.  Sometime clearing these files does not work and i have to then wipe a machine and do clean installs of everything.  Some Macs will not have the problem, and function great for a month and then they have the problem for no explainable reason.
    All other functions work great, no problems anywhere with anything else, excempt saving illustrator files to the server.
    We have tried moving the files locally and then copying them back, but we loose too much work with the errors associated with version control problems. Also a synced folder to the local machines of the server (yes that was intense on the machines) some how had the problem follow it on some macs but not others
    I have tried illustrator CS4 and CS5 and it has the same problem
    I am currently trying to brute force attack the problem, I figure i can reduce the wait time to maybe 20% with a Mac pro and a bank of SSD's. my cost is almost 8k. I am not happy giving up on fixing the bug, but we have at least 1-2 people waiting around at any given time. 
    Any thoughts on the problem or a solution?

    To create a new Swatches panel to store pattern swatches you have to:
    a) Open the Swatches panel and delete all the swatches that you don't want (optional)
    b) Choose Save Swatch Library as AI (not ASE) from the Swatches panel menu (I suggest you to save it on the Desktop! So you can easily find that!).
    The saved file is actually a simple (blank) Illustrator file.
    To use this file with other Illustrator projects choose Window > Swatch Library > Other Libraries and navigate to the saved Illustrator file (Desktop).
    At this point another swatches panel is opened on the screen.
    Drag the desired swatches from this new  panel to the document one. Then close the new panel.
    I hope this help

  • CR2008 connectivity issue with BOE Universes(sap and non sap universes)

    Hi Experts !!
    Recently we tried to build/connect to a Universe in Crystal Reports2008 via 'Make a new connection tab'.
    The universes are of SAP BW or non SAP Lying in BOE Servers and we are trying to build reports on them by conncting/utilizing the universes as a database for Crystal Reporting.
    Our issue is most of the time we are not able to connect to the Universes and the connectivity blows out by some 'communication Error' thing initially.
    While at some other points in time, the connectivity takes us to the Universe and we are able to select few characteristics and key figures from the Universe but the moment we go futher and try to run by pressing 'OK' button it blows out and say' LOGON FAILED'.
    Apparantly, it is an connectivity issue with BOE server and from the different blogs it looks like it is a known issue for long.
    The proposed issue resolution were like either CR2008 should be SP2 with BOE SP3 or there should be some additional .dll files defined in the paths in case of MSSQL database. None of this applies to us as we are on CR2008 with SP3 and going back to SP2 is probably not a viable option for us, and we are using Oracle as underlying database in this specific case.( i would like to tell you here that we are able to connect to Oracle Database directly though).
    We have raised a message with SAP and was just wondering if we do have some solution/workaround already available to this known issue in place please?
    Thanks&Regards.
