GigaWorks S750 with DDTS-100 Decoder - Center/Sub channel not working.

I have the S750 with the DDTS decoder and everything was working fine until the other day. I have tested several times and from what I can tell there is no signal being sent from the sub to the decoder from the Center/Sub channel wire (S750 sub) to the decoder. Plugging the center speaker wire into the left speaker jack will produce a test signal so I know it is not the speaker. Seems the sub has gone out along with the center channel. I checked the fuse and all is well. Please help...

shin8,
Are you getting proper output if you use the "TEST" button on the remote control?

DDTS-100 loud headphone hiss, but not from speaker out?

It would seem I've lucked out big time with the 550 & ddts-100 purcahse. I'm looking into what the supplier can do for me regards the 550 as Creative are as useless as ever.
However, last nite I noticed that both headphone jacks on the DDTS-100 decoder produce a very noticeable amount of hiss, but the speaker outputs on the back do NOT. The hiss is there will everything unplugged from the unit.
This is the exact situation as I have with the 550 in reverse - there is was perfect with headphone, but hiss on the speakers. With the decoder it's the speakers that are fine (if using something other than my 550's lol but headphones are hissy as.
What gives? Why is this, and more to the point, should it be like that? Can anyone else with a ddts-100 report in? My headphones are not cheap crap either, they're probably about US$250, and Senheisers.

Nah, there is no volume control on the headphones, and even speakers attached directly to the headphone jack get hiss. It's weird, the headphone jack outputs at a much lower line level (I need to set the DDTS-100 line level much higher) but yet there is more hiss. It must be coming from a seperate circuit than the speaker outs.
I'd really like to hear back from other people with DDTS-100s as to how their ones work - hiss or no hiss.
Thanks,
Josh

Help connect X-fi Elite Pro with DDTS-100 and Gigaworks s750

Hi,
I purchased a brand new Gigaworks s750 speakers system, DDTS-100 decoder and X-fi Elite Pro. I connected the DDTS-100 and Elite Pro using Optical Fibre output from the audio console of X-fi Elite Pro to the optical digital input of DDTS-100. With the cables supplied with s750, I connected it to the Decoder DDTS-100. The problem is I am not getting any sound from the rear speakers and the front speakers. Only the centre speakers and the side speakers are producing sound. I could hear loud hissing sound and very very low volume of the music from the front speakers and no sound from the rear speakers. I can hear good quality sound from the centre speakers and average quality sound from the side speakers. What could possibly have gone wrong with my setup ? Somebody please help me. Thanx in advance.

Hi Richie,
Thanq for your response. But unlike what you have mentioned, ("what may be happining is the soundcard is decoding the signal and then the ddts is trying to decode it with disatrous results"), In my setup the signal is not getting decoded two times, once by Soundcard and once by the DDTS-100. As I have mentioned that I am taking out an Optical Signal from the sound card to the DDTS-100, the signal comming out from the sound card to the DDTS is Encoded signal only. So there doesnt arise a chance that the signal is getting decoded twice. Can you think of any other reason why my setup is not working? Please let me know.
regards,
Rahul M

DDTS-100 Decoder & Gigaworks S750

Hello, I am in a bit of a problem here. The DDTS-100 decoder has been discontinued. This would have been the perfect solution for me if it was still available. My aim to get the optical output from my tv (lcd hd tuner tv), take it through a median, go through the 4 cables for each of the type of spears and finally to the subwoofer. Now here's my solutions. 1. Wait for the new decoder... Anyone know what it is and when it's coming out? 2. The median could be an pre-amp or an amp, any recommendations? 3. If anyone has any other ideas or has succeeded without the creative decoder. Though the sticky about the 5.1 speaker cable thing on the main page would be a good idea but you will use your sound quality and the loundness dramatically in comparison to the first two solutions above. Your help in this matter is appreciated.

To connect your Soundblaster NX to your DDTS-100 decoder, and let the decoder handle the DD/DTS decoding, you have to connect a digital/optical/coax cable, from the digital output of the NX, to one of the digital inputs on the decoder.. Also make sure you have set the settings on the souncard, to "digital output only", so that the decoder can decode the encoded digital streams, sendt by the soundcard..
if you want to connect your soundcard to the decoder via analog cables, and let the soundcard do the decoding it self, you will need to use a 7.1 analog-audio cable, that comes with both the decoder and the speaker system. Connect the audio cable from the analog output on the soundcard, to the input "switch-box", and set the switch-box to "PC-audio". Also make sure you have connected your speakers to the "switch-box".

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!

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.

Centre channel problem with DDTS-100

I have a set of Gigaworks s750 speakers connected to my PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 via the DDTS-100 decoder; up until yesterday this was all working fine. Having moved some of the gear around to accomodate my new desk, I plugged everything back in and found that the sound from the front centre channel is muffled and/or quieter than the other channels.
The speakers themselves don't seem to be the problem as the PC (which is connected via the switch box included with the decoder) sounds fine but the problem persists with both the PS3 and X360.
My first thought was that I'd pulled one of the cables loose while rearranging the furniture but I've re-plugged everything in several times since with no joy. I've also tried changing the spdif cables and switching the sockets around, as well as removing the switch box and plugging the speakers directly into the decoder but nothing made any difference.
Has anyone ever encountered anything like this before and/or could offer any suggestions?
Any advice would be much appreceated.

I finnaly found out my problem
The buzz came out from my coax cable from my DVD. My DVD player was probably inducing 60Hz on the coax output.
I switched to the optical output and no more buzz.
I'll need to buy a new toslink cable to plug my x-box on the optical input #2
Also I pluged my TV audio out in my st analog input, it also induced a 60 Hz on my DDTS-100. The decoder does not seem to filter out electric noises.
I'm pretty happy to have found out my problem but I'm very dispointed that the DDTS-100 does not filter any electric noises.

DDTS-100 decoder and switch box

Hello,
Well, I'm just beginning(yea, I know another noob ) to get started in the home theatre experience. I bought the G550W 5.1 speakers and DDTS-100 decoder from Creative. My question is do I need to use the switch box as I want to hook things togther through my xbox360? And if not, does it matter which rca plug(red or white) goes into the subwoofer and center speaker plugs on the back of the subwoofer?
Thanks for any possible help.

you need to put the 360's rca plug into the decoder and the 3 minijack(orange green black) from the decoder to the subwoofer. the sattelite speakers need to be put in the subwoofers rca plugs!! if you want real surround sound you should get the component or vga able for the 360 because they have a digital optical output, you can connect it with an optical cable to your decoder and push the digital button. your switchbox is not needed

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

Annoying Buzzing with DDTS-100

Hi,
I have had a set of T-7900 speakers for about 6 months now and I've has no problems with them. They were being used in conjunction with an Audigy 2 ZS.
I decided to purchase the DDTS-100 decoder for my other devices to use the speakers. But when I have it all setup on the speakers on there is a loud buzzing sound. For those of you who have the DDTS-100 you will know you can switch between PC and source. When I flick it to decoder the buzzing stops.
Any ideas what's causing this?

i have the xfi xtreame music and the g500 get great 5. sound on movies and games.dont need anyting else hope this hel
ps.

Price of DDTS 100 Decoder

Hi
Pl any one can tell me the Exact Indian Price of DDTS 100 Decoder. Thanks & Regds

Well if digital DIN isn't supported by the new speakers, you can't go fully digital. I don't even think the newer speakers have digital DIN anymore. The only digital connection you could use is the SPDIF link between the soundcard and the decoder, this would be used for AC3 passthrough. Other multichannel sources would have to be played through analogue connections.
I've never owned Creative speakers so I can't recommend any, I use the Logitech Z-5500 which are pretty good, but expensive. The TD7700 system has a decoder included, if you got this set, you wouldn't need the DDTS-100.

When I navigate web with Firefox my Thinkpad trackpoint center button is not working. With other web browsers it works well. Where is the problem in firefox, how to enable TrackPoint center button?

When I navigate web with Firefox my Thinkpad trackpoint center button is not working. With other web browsers it works well. Where is the problem in firefox, how to enable TrackPoint center button?

I have exactly the same settings in Options (in both computers)
for history, these 2 add-ons and all other stuff in Options. The only difference is that on 1 pc sessions can be saved and closed tabs can be reopened, on other main pc they stopped to work. + no any other add-on that does similar things works on this pc.
It is also interesting that I can reopen closed visited sites from History Panel, but not by pressing the Button. For now I only manually bookmark links to a temporary folder.
Recently (some 2 month ago) I pressed x and Firefox closed all tabs without saving them without displaying save & quit pop up.
so I changed 4 settings in about.config
browser.tabs.warn on close true
browser.warn on quit true
browser.warn on restart true
browser.show.quit warning true
but the problem with sessions appeared only 1 week ago.
So I guess the problem is not with the History settings or other settings. Seems that something responsible for button or for storing info about tabs/sessions got corrupted. :(

Welcome to the HP Forums MillaMagia,
I see by your post that the USB isn't being recognized.
I can help you with this issue.
Are you using the same USB cable? (known good USB cable)
You want to use the normal USB slot 2.0 cable and not the latest USB 3.0.
USB 3.0 are supposed to be backwards compatible.
Try another USB port on the Laptop, some of the USB ports are more powered then others.
I have provided a document to see if the printer is partially recognized in the device manager, which is causing the printer not to be recognized again. (the uninstall from the CD should have removed the entry and the printer from the registry)
Leave the printer turned on and the USB cable connected directly to the computer and the printer's power cord directly into a wall outlet.
How do I get into Windows Device Manager?
Here is a document for Identifying problems in Windows Device Manager.
Check to see if there are any hardware driver conflicts, you might see a ! mark or a red x beside a device with a conflict or unknown device, look under universal serial bus controllers, look for USB printing support or mass storage device, delete the entry by right clicking and select uninstall, OK.
Let me know how it was listed. (screen shots welcome)
If this is a Laptop then check the power management settings.
Access the device manager. Windows 8-How do I access the Device Manager.
Select universal serial bus controllers from the list, for each USB root hub, right click and left click on properties, for power management remove the check mark for "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". It allows the computer to limit or turn off power for this device.
Disconnect the USB, run the full uninstall and reinstall the printer software again.
If you need further assistance, let me know.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

Substitution written under cost center accounting is not working for tcode MB1B but working for MIGO_GI

Hi All
Do you know why this behaviour different for subtitution written under cost center accounting.
We have written substitution using coding block table. Logic of substitution is in case of any GL maintained in a set is being used for posting , then we will replace the cost center with profit center vlaue. Reason being we have same naming convention for Cost center and Profit center.
Thanks
Sonia

Hi,
MB1B is t-code for stock transfer posting.
Stock transfer posting generate FI document using balance sheet account, not P&L account.
Because you don’t create cost elements using balance sheet accounts related to stock, I think that Substitution written under cost center accounting is not working for tcode MB1B is right.
