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".

Sound Blaster X-Fi Elite Pro with constant beeping and crashing

Hi creative
I would like to make a enquiry with regards to a issue I have come across for the past few weeks. I have a custom build pc running at home with a Sound Blaster X-Fi Elite Pro sound card. This machine has been build since 2007 and all as been fine up until now. I have noticed that when playing audio and listening to music the machine crashes all of a sudden and there is a constant beep coming out the machine which requires me to hard reset the machine to return to normal. I have reinstalled the OS to rule out any windows Audio drivers, device drivers, software issues and failure with the OS, but this only lasted a few weeks and this problem has re-appeared and is ntermittent and very frustrating. I would like to know the route the of intermittent issue and the possible causes around it and what I have to do push forward apart from changing the sound card, it would be nice to know the proper answer to the cause of the issue. Any ideas could it be the capacitors on the card?

So with your 65 whopping posts, what exactly do you think you are contributing to this forum? The user has a Sound Blaster-branded sound card, so in my opinion, he is in the "correct" section.

DDTS-100 and GigaWorks S-750

Hi there, i bought the DDTS-100 to install on my pc with 7.1 GW-S750. 7.1 system is connected on a audigy 2 platinum with frontal bay that has the optical and coaxial connections. The audigy is 6.1 but i use the 7.1 system as a 5.1 system. Ok then the definitions when seeing a DVD video with dolby digital and DTS are ( IN WINDVD7 ) audio:spdif out enable, the cable is the optic that goes from the front bay to the decoder, and puff there is the sound digital. Now if i change the switch in the box of the decoder to "PC audio" instead of "DECODER", and change the definition in windvd7 to analog audio card instead of spdif out and select a 5.1 system and select the DTS audio in DVD-VIDEO menu there is the puff again, here it is the dolby and DTS sound again ..voice coming on center speaker, some scenes back sounds are only there, everything is the same. So here is the question i guess i dont need the Decoder for PC use.. because the audigy decodes alone the digital sound (dts or dolbydigital) and sends the sound to speakers in the same way.. is the quality diferent by being decoded by the decoder instead of the audigy itself with windvd?

PS2, Xbox & GameCube + DDTS - 100 and ..

I have my consoles connected with DDTS - 100 and looking for new and cheap 5.1 surround sound speaker system. I doubt between Creative Inspire T5400 (100 ? in Croatia) and P5800 (70 ?) or something other in that price range. Please, give me some advices and recomendations... thx
mazgoon

Just thought I'd jump in and say:
1). Turn on Xbox with no disc in the drive.
2). Go to the 'Settings' menu.
3). Select the 'Audio' menu.
4). There should be an option for Mono, Stereo and Dolby Digital <---Select Dolby Digital.
5). Pop a game in (Halo works best for this ) and enjoy!
Note that some people I know (including myself) have found that the rear speaker come out a bit quiet compared to the front speakers when playing Xbox, so you may need to adjust your speaker set accordingly.
Hope this helps, Kaya.

Connect my new Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion to my HP PhotoSmart B210

How can I connect my new MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion to my hp b210 printer? My printer is about 1.5 years old and works wirelessly just fine with my PC. I just switched to mac. The printer is supposed to be airprint compatible according to HP. HP has no software drivers for me to download. Instead they say to use Mac Software Update to get the software. However, there are no updates when I try that. I have tried adding the printer manually using it's IP address and can print a test page, but when I try to print using an application on the Mac it cannot find the printer or says the printer is in use. Help!!!

Are you sure it has no usb port?

Did you download and install the Windows Support software? If you did, did you use the Boot Camp Control icon to set up the trackpad how you want it?

Can this be done? Airport extreme connected wireless in extend mode to connect a wireless Mac Pro with an ethernet cable from the extended airport extreme..

Can this be done? Airport extreme connected wireless in extend mode to connect a wireless Mac Pro with an ethernet cable from the extended airport extreme.

This will work.....IF....you also have an Apple AirPort router configured to provide your wireless network.
In other words, you need to have two Apple AirPort routers to extend a wireless network.
When the AirPort Extreme is configured to "extend" the wireless of the "main" AirPort, it will provide more wireless coverage and the Ethernet ports are enabled, so you could connect your Mac Pro to any of the Ethernet ports and use that as a network and Internet connection.

Need help Connecting Crystal Reports 8.5 with GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c

Need help Connecting Crystal Reports 8.5 with GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c. I need assistance on connecting these together so I can run a report. I am not an IT person so if someone could dumb it down it would be great.
Thanks,
NBGHealth

Hello,
I assume GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c is some sort of database or data source? If you have an ODBC driver then create or use a System DSN to the database. Then you can create a report using that DSN.
Otherwise I suggest you contact the makers of GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c and ask them how to connect to the database.
Let them know CR is ANSII 92 ODBC 3 compliant.
Thank you

Dolby Digital with DDTS-100

Hi,
I recently just got HDTV and connected it to my DDTS-100 (which is connected to the Gigaworks S750). However, all channels which have 5.1 surround sound (confirmed with cable company - doesn't mean they aren't lieing/don't know what they're talking about) make the the DDTS-100 illuminate the Dolby Digital light (as expected), but also the "Stereo" light (making me think I'm only getting a 2.1 signal). The end result is that I only get sound out of the sub, FL and FR. If I use any of the matrix modes I "lose" all the voices (i.e. apparently no centre channel decoded).
I've tried hooking up the Gigaworks S750 directly to my 7.1 soundcard and all speakers work fine. I've also tried every combination of upmixing available on both the DDTS-100 and the Gigaworks S750. I've also tried using Optical and Coaxial sources from the HDTV box. I also have a GameCube which appears to work perfectly fine on the Pro-Logic mode.
Is there something special I need to do with the DDTS-100? Any way of confirming that the signal is in fact 5.1

plz reply
