Creative ddts-100 crackling with Optical In Use.

. Hello, in the first time, sorry my english, i have some crackling issues like a lot of others users after a certain time when i use the optical in of the decoder.

Creative DDTS-100 Crackling Issue

So I've been using a DDTS-100 decoder for about a year now. However, when I first turn it on, I almost always get crackling. To get rid of this, all I need to do is turn it off and back on again (perhaps several times), and it only seems to occur on the optical inputs.
I read that this is a fairly common issue. Was there ever a fix for it's

Anyone?

Creative DDTS-100 Decoder Switchbox

Hey guys, I've got a Creative DDTS-100 Decoder but I'm in need of the switchbox that comes with it as my decoder never came with one. Does anyone know where i can get one from or anyone who has one but don't need it.
thanks

i have the exact same problem
i bought it so that i could use the dolby prologic II from my playstation, everything works except for the sub-signal
if i use the test function on the remote control, the sub does work though
i tried optical in (all 3 of'm), analog in (all 3), different cables, different games, different speakers
i tried it with the optical out from nvidia soundstorm, but no sub-signal either
and when i use the nvidia test function, the sub makes a noise again
i bought this because most reviews where rather positive about this product, and now it's kinda useless, racing / gaming / watching a movie without bass is ridiculous
please give us some help

DDTS-100 decoder with Inspire 5500 speakers?

I've been a very content owner of the Creative Inspire 5500 set (decoder and speakers) for two years now, but just recently my decoder has been playing up. I wish to purchase the DDTS-100 decoder and was wondering if I may use the speakers from my present Inspire 5500 set? The speakers are 5.1 - 8W RMS sub, with five 6W satellites. The speakers are similar (if a little less powerful, I think, than those with the Inspire 5700 set. Is this OK? I searched the archives for a mention of people using this set-up, but can't find any posts concerning this. Thanks for any forthcoming help!

Creative DDTS-100 Decoder - Stereo - Surround

Hello,
I ordered the DDTS-100 and stands with the Ddts-100 now before a problem.
I wanted to connect the dvd-player and tv with the DDTS-100 and enjoy then surround sound, but I heared that this the DDTS-100 not really can do, tune that?
If I cannot let stereo sound on 5.1 sound, for what is the decoder then good?
Thanks for your answers.

European to UK Adapter work on a Creative DDTS-100?

Hi
I got a Creative Decoder DDTS-100 of a friend but it only comes with a European AC power supply that has two round prongs and I need one for the UK mains, so I was wondering if anyone knows whether one of those European to UK Adapters would work with the DDTS-100 and if they would then what strength of fuse would would I need in order to power the DDTS-100?
I have tried a adapter my mom gave me but it only has a amp fuse inside it and it didn`t power the DDTS-100 so i`m wondering if it would be because the amp on the fuse is too low?
Thanks for responding.

Very helpful forum this is. Two posts and not even one helpful reply.
Mods please remove my two posts and delete my account from the board.
I don`t need your help anymore.

Creative DDTS-100.

Hi,
I own an audio card (mobo integrated) that has 6 channel audio output. I connected the speakers to the switch box and from my soundcard ( the 3 ones ) to the switch box but i still get no sound from the DDTS-100, i only hear stereo like the DDTS-100 is not connected at all. Anyone can help ? My soundcard is not a creative, it's an AC'97 that is integrated on my mobo. Thanks, -Andy

Problem solved! Thanks, Sincerely yours, -Andy

DDTS-100 Decoder with Inspire 5500D 5.1 Speakers (DIN Problem!)

Dear all,
I bought a DDTS-100 Decoder today, thinking it will improve connectivity and sound quality of my Inspire 5500D 5.1 Speaker System, but I have run into a bit of a problem. My system has a sub which every speaker is connected to and I have to have the DIN cable connected for controlling the speakers and sub but the DDTS-100 doesn't have a din slot so my speakers will not power on when connected to the ddts-100. Is there a way around this or will I have to take back my decoder. I hope there is a solution as I would be very thankful.
Yours Thankfully,
Kyle Hunt.

Need help with deciding digital options... creative ddts-100, ddts-610, x-fi i/o cons

I think i have narrowed down my options for upgrading my computer audio... except i am not sure which way to go and would like some help or ti
ps.
... thanks.
first off i mainly game and listen to music on the pc or listen to the music while gaming... i currently have the logitech z5300e speaker system, creative labs x-fi fatalty pro gamer sound card... i wanted to purchase a receiver to go digital except thats a bit too much for me right now, if i was to get a receiver it would be for my home theater. so i looked around and came up with a couple alternati'ves, except i am not sure if these options will work with what i have now...
?st option, i could go along with getting a creative labs inspire digital 5500 speaker system because that sytem comes with a decoder box that creative labs no longer makes... this decoder box has 2 optical in, coax in, also has a adaoter that connects the speakers to the decoder box as well... runs around 200.00 dollars?2nd option, i found on creatives website a new decoder called the dts-60 except this option would require a receiver because this newer model does not come with the speaker adapter as the dts-00 does... but since i am going to upgrade my home theater receiver i would have that one to use with the coax connections. this option runs 00.00 dollars?3rd option, i? found on creatives website a x-fi i/o console so far from what i read it works with my sound card ... i am still not sure if i can just connect the speaker cable to the console but this would run 80.00?4th option , on there website there is also, a dribe bay x-fi i/o upgrade. not sure if it will work with my soundcard but i was thinking it may be an option to use cause the card i have has built in decoders i think..
??what would you guys do ?

dont buy creative ...no support from them

Creative Decoder DDTS-100 problem with my speakers

Hi, I just bought the DDTS, I have Klipsch THX 5.1 speakers and when I hook them up most of the sound is coming from the center channel. The other channels (front/rear) output sound but at a SUPER low level. Any ideas? Is it the Klipsch speakers?
Thanks
J

DudeRighteous,
Have you tried adjusting the levels for the center down and the other speakers up? On the main volume knob press the select button and it will select a specific speaker set to adjust the volume for. Try changing these settings and see if that helps.

Crackling with XBOX games using the Audigy 2 ZS Plat. Pro

Hey, currently I have my XBOX wired into the internal front dri've that comes with the Audigy2 ZS Plat Pro. That is going in to the optical in, through the XBOX's high definition pack.
Now, when playing games, (Halo 2, Ghost Recon 2), I notice a LOT of crackling when there are explosions or bass heavy events on screen. It doesn't even seem to be just restricted to bass either, as when sometimes there is loud in-game talking coming through, that crackles as well. It is seems like when there is a lot of sound that is coming through, that triggers it mostly.
Anyways... I can't see how this would be a hardware conflict, since im just using the sound card to pass the XBOX's sound through to my Logitech Z-5300's. I have played with every setting on the Audio HQ and the Creative menu's (Volume control, bass redirection, THX settings, etc..)
Also worth mentioning is that games working from my PC are fine, as well as music. So it is definately isolated to the I/O Audigy connector. Also, there is no crackling when played on a regular home stereo receiver, so it is not a defect in the cable or anything.
Does anybody have any suggestions at all? I have been going nuts trying to figure this out!! I have downloaed and installed the lastest drivers, but perhaps im installing them in the wrong order? Who knows... please, someone help me out!! Hopefully the Creative staff have heard of this and can suggest something for me.
Thank you so much for your time, and I hope I can get this working!
EDIT: Oh and also, please dont reference me to that help page on the Creative support page. I have been looking through the forum pages and tried most everything listed.Message Edited by jeffsaylo on -26-2004 07:00 AM

jeffsaylo what bigben said might be right also in the link i have at the bottom someone fixed this by changing the pci slot cause of a irq being used by 2 devices. worked for him but not for me but maybe you want to try it. check for this by going to control-panel then systemthen /hardware/device manager in device manager click view then "resources by connection" then look under irq for audigy and make shure its on its own number also to free up irq's disable unneed devices(in bios or windows?). anyway didnt work for me but let me know if you have any luck?

DDTS-100 problem with DTS

I recently just got this decoder, and i connect it to my Akira DVD player via Coaxial cable. And i'm having problem in DTS mode, the lights just never lights up. but i had no problem in DD or DD ex. I did alot setting on my dvd players, such as the output mode. like SPDIF/RAW and SPDIF/PCM but it just doesn't works for DTS. is it something wrong with the hardware on the decoder? approximately how much will it cost to repair? cause this is brought from my friend and the warranty had just ended. or just the setting on my dvd? but most probably i don't think it is. cause i tried all sort of setting it just doesn't works at all. thanks for taking your time to read this thread.

smell something fishy here, first make sure the cheap dvd player (akira) support DTS out, second don't tell me you used pirated dvd movies, third not every movie support DTS.
If u had already made sure that your dvd player support dvd player and used original dvd movie with dts, then it's time to contact creative.
