ESPN Goal Line out in VHO-4 (Takoma Park, MD)

Channel 571. No picture, no signal, no sound. This is *not* the pixelation issue that other areas were reporting last week. This is a complete black screen with no signal. Please fix.

I called Verizon this Saturday about this. I was told there was an outage for this channel and it would be fixed this week. I don't think it is. When I turn to this channel it still tells me it's unavailable. So I don't think Verizon really cares about whether this channel is available or not. Very disappointing. This was one of the few chanels I couldn't get with DirecTv. I thought I would be able to with Verizon but I guess not.
I posted about this on the programming forum but have not got any responses there either.

In that press release it says that ESPN Goal Line is available to Extreme Hd and Ultimate HD customers at no additional cost. But I am getting a not subscribed message for the last 3 weeks. I called tech support and they said I should be getting the channel, but they don't understand why I'm getting that error message. Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it.

Which Extreme HD package do you have, the 2010 version or the 2009 version? As I understand it, that channel is only included in the 2010 version, which became available in mid-January 2010 and replaced the 2009 version for ordering. So if you got the Extreme HD package before that, you are out of luck (as am I, although I have to admit I don't really care about getting that channel).

Universal Dock: Line Out isn't really Line Out!

I recently purchased a new Apple Universal dock for use with my Ipod touch. The goal as to access the line out port to hook up to my stereo (driving a stereo through the headphone jack is not the way to go)
I was led to believe that the Line Out capability of the Ipod touch bypasses the internal headphone amplifier, thereby solving all the problems inherent in using the headphone jack (i.e. impedance mismatch, volume too low, etc.)
Such is not the case. With the Universal dock's line out, the sound is exactly as crappy as through the headphone jack, and when I put the output on the scope, it was nowhere near the standard line-level voltage.
Any ideas as to what gives here? I suspect the Universal Dock is not really providing a line out at all....

The iTransport turns any currently available iPod player into a high-end media server by providing a bit-perfect digital audio output to an audio/video system, bypassing the player’s internal digital-to-analog conversion (DAC) and analog output stage. Subsequently, the audio signal remains clean and unadulterated throughout the path, outputting a “bit-perfect” digital stream. The iTransport is compatible with:
All Current iPods All iPod Nano Models The iPod Classic Models iPod Video Generation 5 Also the New iPod Touch/iPhone Models
To ensure compatibility, please make sure your iPod has received all software updates before docking it with the iTransport
“The Wadia iTransport is the coolest product I’ve encountered in some time. If you own an iPod and a high-end system, the iTransport is essential!”- Robert Harley, The Absolute Sound, November 2008
“The iTransport let me hear every detail as readily as did playing [a disc] on the [$6200] Simaudio SuperNova. If there was a difference between the original CD and the digital output of the iTransport, I never heard it!”
- Wes Phillips, Stereophile, Class-A Rating, October 2008
“This is a brilliant product! One that finally lets the iPod be all that it can and should be. It took the imagination and know-how of a firm like Wadia to pull this concept off. The real genius of the iTransport is that it lets you pull digital audio straight off the iPod and route them to a superior-sounding outboard DAC. You’ll have an audio player that not only rivals (but in some cases handily outperforms) multi-thousand-dollar music servers and CD players!”
- Chris Martens, Playback Magazine, August 2008
“Until now, there has been no real bridge between the convenience of an iPod and the high-end audio listening experience,” commented John W. Schaffer, President, Wadia Digital “The goal of making the player a true high-end media server has been hampered by the need to send the digital signal through a portable player’s D/A converter rather than that of a high performance audio system. We designed iTransport to bypass the player’s converter and output stage altogether. When used with an iTransport, theiPod becomes a digital music source equal to some of the finest sounding transports in the high-end audio market.”
Along with turning an iPod into a high-performance audio server, iTransport is one of the first docks to access video content stored on currently available iPods. Similar to the audio section, the video signal is made available via high performance component outputs that provide up to DVD-quality video.
The Wadia 170 iTransport measures 2” x 8” x 8” (H/W/D), making it an easy addition to most racks and entertainment centers. Wadia incorporates a bit-perfect S/PDIF digital output and high-resolution component digital video output, as well as analog audio and video outputs for easy connection with most audio/video systems. Your iPod will be charged while in the dock and the iTransport comes complete with a remote to control all iPod functions.
“I can tell you this much, it sounds fantastic! The dream of the iPod being a true audiophile component has now been realized and the sound quality is limited only by the DAC you own….the iPod through the 170 fooled a lot of people at my place into thinking they were listening to a five figure player!”

Sound on sp-dif & line out at the same time

Hi,
I'm new here so please bare with me. I've just bought a new computer with PCI Express X-Fi Xtreme Audio installed. I'm using the line out connections for a set of 5. speakers surrounding the computer and the digital out SP/DIF optical output going into the room next door connected to my main amp and speakers. The problem is that I can't get the SP/DIF output to work unless I physically unplug the line out connections from the back of the computer. I want to be able to use both at teh same time.
I've looked at previous postings on this issue and the nearest I can find is from several years ago and I'm not sure of the applicability to my soundcard. Grateful for any help with this.
Many thanks,
Mark?

. Varies according the the specific product. I'm familiar with the PCI SBLi've/SBAudigy cards. The pre-5. SBLi've models had both acti've, but they might not have the same audio mix if the "Digital Output Only" setting is disabled. Digital outputs on Li'veDri'ves, Digital I/O addon cards generally had corresponding behavior. The SBLi've 5. and SBAudigy models are either/or because the digital jack is dual-purpose. Other digital outputs (Li'veDri've, AudigyDri've, etc.) are generally always on. SBAudigy2 and later have dedicated digital outs which are always-on as well (other than being muted for high-resolution DVD-Audio). Gi'ven your second question, though, it should be noted that the master volume control applies to both digital and analog outputs equally, so this is _not_ a way to get two outputs with separate volume control.
2. The master volume slider operates digitally before the conversion to analog, so no.
3. Not impossible in theory, but probably not very practical.
Is it possible to reveal your goal because it would help to understand what you want to accomplish by this? It sounds like you want 2 identical outputs whose volume you can control separately. If I were trying to have that, I'd just use a splitter cable/adapter on the line out and send these to somethings that each have their own volume control. Since the software volume control is digital, I avoid using it, actually. I run all my volume controls full up and control volume externally. That tends to do a better job of maintaining SNR performance.

Mac Pro 2.66 Line Out not functioning.

One of our Mac Pros on display here has a set of Altec Lansing speakers attached to it, but the line out on the back of the Mac no longer works (it did at one time). I've double-checked the settings and there is no audio coming out of the ports. However, I switch the cable to the headphone jack on the front, and boom, instant sound. Dunno why.

This should fix your problem.
1.1. Trash file com.apple.BezelServices.plist in your Home > Library > Preferences folder.
1.2. Empty the Trash.
1.3. Either Log out then log in, or restrt your Mac.
1.4. Check the volume keys' functions a few times in the hours after performing the steps above.
2. More than likely, an errant Startup or Login Item maybe the cause. Perhaps some third-party utility you may have
installed to control iTunes?
My "Troubleshooting Startup and Login Items" FAQ can help you pin that down if such an item is causing the problem.
3. If none of the above sorts it out, after the problem occurs, immediately check these Console logs for additional clues.
Good luck!

Possible to use both optical out AND regular line out at the same time?

I currently have my computer speakers (logitech z560) hooked up to the mac pro via regular stereo jack in the back. I have an extra receiver that I would love to hook in to supply me with some needed sound for movie watching and what-not.. Is there a way to enable both line out - digital and line out at the same time?

You can set DVD Player's "Audio output" to "Digital Out" in its "Disc Setup" preference, while other applications use Line Out.
You could use a splitter on Line Out to feed your current speakers, and analog Line In on your receiver. When you want sound to both systems, set the receiver to Line In. When you want to watch DVDs, set it to Digital In. This will give you surround sound if the DVD has multichannel sound, and the receiver supports more than two channels.
If you really want the same output on the Mac Pro Line Out, and Digital Out, you can use the "Auxiliary Device Output" effect in Audio Hijack Pro
<http://www.rogueamoeba.com/audiohijackpro/>
It will not support more than two-channel audio.

Can I record audio on an iPad direct from a mac via line out

I use the noteability app alot, recording audio at a live lecture works great. However, due to a bug you can not add an audio file directly into your notes (at the moment), you must record them.
I have a bunch of podcasts that I would like to add to my notes. I know I could play them from my mac and record audio through the ipads mic but what I hoped to do was connect a male to male cable between the line out of my mac into my ipad, playing the audio without interferance. This didn't work
Does anyone know if there is a similar way to do this or something I could have done wrong.
Thanks

yeah - you can do it, but you need an adapter. The earphone jack on a pad is a special jack with stereo headphone uot put and a seperate mic in channel. The adapters i have seen are usually built to accomodate a standard 1/4 in - into the pad, like the one in the attached link. In theory, you could use the lineout on the mac, to a 1/4 in male - then into this adapter to get it back into the pad. Somebody probably makes the cable you need with the 1/4 shift, but I couldn't find one.
Options - in you notes, insted of copying the file, put a link to the podcast

Disharging with USB, Freezing on Sync, Hard Drive noise on Line Out

I have been dealing with three issues with my 60GB iPod click wheel with color display (Photo).
The first is something that slowly creeped in, which is hard drive noise that is audible through the line out when the iPod is charging in a dock. I'd like to say it's like a ground loop issue, but it's in my car, on my iHome, and on my apple dock when plugged into power on a stereo system. It sounds like the spinning of the hard drive is correlated to the noise.
Second, over the past year or so, I've noticed that when I have the iPod plugged into any mac using USB, the iPod discharges. My friend has noticed the same problem on her 40GB 3rd generation iPod. We've tried them on several computers. Firewire connection, no problem, only USB when plugged into a computer, not the power adapter.
Just recently, the iPod froze up iTunes and the rest of my Mac (G4 MDD Dual 1gHz, OS X 10.4.10, iTunes 7.4.2) during sync. I made reformatted the iPod using Disk Utility, Restored to iPod, making sure to plug into power to finish the restore, then attempted to resync. Two attempts of this and I get the same result, a freeze.
The first two issues, I've adapted with, but this last one is just frustrating. I will attempt to sync using a firewire cable, but that should not be the solution. This iPod came with a USB cable, it should charge and sync with one. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. Thank you!

ok I went here for instruction on how to take it apart since I wasn't having much luck on my own:
http://www.flexbeta.net/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=20&t=8269
his tip worked for me so far. hopefully this won't be just a temporary fix:
Good tip: if your iPod seems dead and the hard drive is throwing errors pull out the connection at the bottom of the ipod mainboard and plug it back in, this will hard reset your ipod and worked a few times for me

Xbox 360 - Optical line-in pass through 5.1 to optical line-out on an iMac?

Hi guys, i'm in the market to purchase a new 5.1 surround sound system for my room and the following issue has been purplexing me.
IS it possible to daisy chain my XBOX 360 to my iMac with optical cables and pass through 5.1 surround sound to the decoder on the sound system?
So i'd have an optical cable from my xbox to the line-in on my iMac. I'd use Rogue Amoeba's Line-In app to pass the sound through to the optical line-out and through to the sound system.
(I know it works using stereo sources, but i don't know about 5.1 digital sound.)
I also know i could just connect them both to separate optical ports on the sound sytem, but i'm trying to listen to 2 sources at the same time. (5.1 from XBOX and music from iMac).
Any thoughts on this are appreciated!

I'm convinced things work like this:
The SBX-Fi receives the encoded SPDIF.<
The drivers decode it into the 5 digital audio signals. This siimply regenerates what was put into the encoding and has no effect on its "volume."<
The 5 digital audio signals are sent to the SBX-Fi hardware, as is.<
The signals are widened (not sure about the SBX-Fi, but for SBLi've-/SBAudigy-series card it's 32-bits with IIRC 4 bits for headroom, which is 24dB) at input by the SBX-Fi hardware. The additional headroom is probably able to handle most effects/mixing which might happen, but might produce a signal which would clip on output if the intermediate results produce a digital volume over 00%.<
The master output volume operates on the output signals before they are narrowed.<
The output signals are narrowed (dithered) and distributed.<
If that's correct, it means you should be able to simply lower the master output volume in the soundcard mixer; and that presumes something's going on like high Crystalizer settings, or something; to elminate clipping distortion.

No sound out of back line out MacPro Bootcamp 3.1 Windows 7 64bit

No sound out of back line out speakers.
MacPro Early 2008
Bootcamp 3.1
Windows 7 64bit
Realtek HD audio driver.
I have speakers plugged into the back line out.
They work in Mac 10.6.4 (as always) and in Parallels 5 Windows 7 using Bootcamp partition.
All other jacks work. In Realtek driver it shows nothing connected to that jack.
Anybody else have this issue?
Anybody else have solved this?

Anyone at all?
Even if you don't have the issue yet have a similar setup. Maybe I can figure out if there's a driver update I may need.
BTW I KNOW others have this as I've seen this mentioned on other forums. What I do NOT know is whether it's "everyone" or there's something about systems that don't have this issue, I need to follow.

Using line out audio cause mac pro 1,1 freeze

Hello,
I have upgrade mac pro 1,1 osx from tiger to snow leopard (update to 10.6.8 - clean install))
Why every time I connect my speaker to line out cause system freeze/crash?
But if using internal speaker, there is no problem.

So I have to reboot manual with holding power button, but cannot load osx (blank screen), I try to hold smc reset button, don't work too.
So I unplug and plug the memory raiser, so finally everything back to normal. It can loading osx snow leopard normally.
So what is the problem?
Thank you,
David

It's a hardware fault. I suggest you make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have it tested. It's a free service. The repair won't be free, but if it's something simple, such as a bad memory module, you may be able to fix it yourself.

No signal from audigy 2zs line out j

Hey there....due to a virus, I recently had to format my dri've and reinstall XP and all my apps including software for my Audigy 2 ZS soundcard. Before the format I had my sound and video card connect to my TV to extend my PC display and audio to my home entertainment system. The external speakers were connected through the line out # jack on the rear of the sound card and I could hear everything playing just fine when my TV was on and the correct video signal line input was selected (video #2 in my case), but now I can't hear anything (video is playing back fine on the TV, just with no sound). I've checked my audio settings and I think they're correct - if there is a mute switch for any of the line out jacks in the creative audigy software or in windows' volume control panel I sure can't find it.
I'm sure its a settings thing because I didn't touch the cable connections, and I double checked to ensure they are all connected tightly/correctly as they were before the reinstall.
If anybody has any pointers, man that would be helpful....thanks!

Yup, my digital speakers are connected through the digital out jack.
Device manager shows the device working correctly - no issues or exclamation marks.
Not one ioda of hardware was moved, not one cable unplugged or any other config changed before or after the re-formatting of the hard dri've. Software o/s and applications only.
The soundblaster card properties in device manager shows no conflicts....everything is working fine, but there is a setting somewhere that is being missed I suspect; I have gone ever every option in all of the soundblaster audigy audio control software installed that came bundled with the card, checked online for latest drivers which I've got installed, and did a clean uninstall/reinstall using creative's 6 step-by-step guide. I also checked all windows xp based audio controls even though I've checked the option that enables the audigy controls to sync with the windows ones as you probably already know.
To my knowledge, there is no way to disable line out signal from this card - its there, you plug in your external and go. And with no config changes at all, no hardware changes, no cables unplugged etc. I don't know what else to do. (except email creative support which I did a few minutes ago).
Thanks Katman.

2009 Mac Pro no audio out from Line Out and/or Digital Out.

Hey guys, I recently bought a new tv which has an optical input and thought I'd buy an optical cable to connect it to my Mac Pro's (4.1 model 2009 I believe) digital out port which I have never used before .
The issue I'm facing since is that I can't get out from my mac pro to my tv. I also bought a cable to direct sound from my mac pro's line out, to my tv's red/white stero audio ports.That didn't work either.
When I select Digital out as the default audio output in Sound preferences the OS says that there are not default audio controls for that device and the sound icon in the menu bar is greyed out while when I switch to line out output I can control volume but no audio is coming from my TV.
I've been searching on forums and didn't find any relevant answer so if someone knows what may cause this that'd be really helpful.
*ALSO: I've got windows 8 instaleld on my mac pro as well. The digital out doesn't work there as well although the line out does send sound to the TV.
** I also have soundflower installed and perian although I don't think any of them would mess things up like that.
Do you think this is a problem with my Mac or is this a common Mavericks issue (sorry forgot to mention I'm on 10.9.2)
Many Thanks,
Thanos.

That's normal. Is the correct audio input selected on the TV?

Line Out on G5 PowerMac broken

Hello all,
I have a problem.
The line-out socket in my G5 is broken. I think it is physical damage (possibly caused by someone tripping on a wire plugged into it?).
I am fairly technically minded, but thought I would check... does anyone have any experience with this problem?
If I said I was thinking about boring a bigger hole in the case and replacng the socket with a stereo 1/4" Neutrick locking balanced jack socket what would people say? Possible?
Any comments, suggestions, advice appreciated.
Cheers.
P.S. This is dug up from an old topic that got archived, but I did resolve the issue.

Hi RedHavoc-
Believe it or not I once heard it mentioned on these boards that poking around gently with a toothpick can reset the little switch that senses optical or analog connections. If this is the same jack it may be worth a try.
If it is a physical component issue, the best guys to contact so far seem to have been: MAC-PRO If you don't see what you want by searching on their site give them a call-they are friendly enough.
Your idea sounds cool to me, but then again I am a Man of Science and not afraid to venture into such territory.
Luck-

Digital Audio In to Line Out Not working.

How do you route digital Audio in to Line out? I have a 2010 Mac Pro, running digital in and have validated it's a good signal. No sound through the line out.
In the interim, i've used Audio Hijack to route it through the line out with no issue. I'm confused as to why i must use this 3rd party product to route the audio. Any ideas, this can't possibly be a new problem.
Thanks!

I've had problems connecting my computer to my cable box as well. Comcast apparently disables some of the functions on its boxes. Call your cable company. It's most likely a problem with your box, not your computer.
Good luck and if you find the problem let me know.
