How I solved my crackle/pop iss

Hello fellow sufferers!
After I bought a Creative X-Fi Titanium Pro the fun began with sound issues. There were gaps inside the sound that made enjoying music impossible. Also the DPC latency checker tool showed many peaks while playing sound. But to make a long story short, it turned out that the problem was an application named "SRS Audio Sandbox" that caused gaps inside the sound output. After uninstalling all problems disappeared
I know, the vast majority does not have this application installed so the problem has to be on another side. But maybe some have...
Hope this helps!
Cheers!

Heres some general stuff to try to stop audio pops
The first step is to disable all the extra stuff in creative audio panel
if that doesnt work, what I found to help was to not install the Intel drivers for AHCI, (I have a board with the P45 chipset which is ICH0R intel)
setting the network adapter from "auto negotiation" to full duplex / half duplex may help
and last but not least it may be overheating of the cpu, just wild guesses
edit:there is one another way for sound to distort: if youre monitor is dvi and is not plugged tightly it might cause audio to pop I have no idea why this isMessage Edited by Melted_Igloo on -2-2008 04:56 AM

1212M Crackling/Popping - New Drivers

I'm kind of cranky about this problem. Read on because I actually know exactly what the problem is (at least for most of us and only Creative/EMU can fix it).
Background
I have a 1212M with the 0404 I/O card. It's a V1 that have had for five or six years. The quality of the sound is great, the features are great and the price is great. There's just one problem. From the day I got the board all those years ago I've had the crackling/popping problem that many, many other users also have.
The problem is not my motherboard, BIOS, other hardware, Windows or other applications. Over the years this EMU board has been in many different systems, many different configurations and the evolution from WinXP, Vista and now to Win7. The crackling problem has always been exactly the same. The problem is the board itself, not the system and not the configuration and I can prove it (read on).
Another thing that frustrates me is all the time that so many users have spent trying to troubleshoot this issue that is completely wasted since, for some of us, the problem is in the EMU hardware/drivers. That's not to say that there aren't some other crackling problems that are related to the system speed, interfering hardware or interfering software. There are actually two different problems that both have the same crackling symptom which makes all this quite confusing. I'll call them "System Related" and "EMU Hardware/Driver Related". If you're having the crackling symptom you should figure out which type of problem you have before spending hours troubleshooting, reinstalling, etc, etc, etc. Here's how:
If your crackling problem:
- Doesn't happen on startup. Your audio is fine and the problem only develops after a while. On my system it's between 60 and 90 minutes and resetting the card.
- Starts with a few minor crackle/pops per second and gradually gets progressively worse over several minutes with nothing else changing in the system (ie not running new software or changing anything).
- After a while (can be a long while) the crackling can actually go away again and you have clean audio. Then the crackling returns. Once again with no changes in system load in between.
- You can make the crackling go away instantly and every time by simply resetting the clock on the card. There are several ways to do this. In Patchmix go to the System tab under Session Settings and switch the clock between internal/external (whatever you have it on, go to the other and back again). Another way is the change the ASIO Buffer Latency milliseconds in your host software's ASIO control panel.
If those four things are all true for you then you have the "EMU Hardware/Driver Related" type of crackling problem. Do not waste any time with all the well-meaning but misguided troubleshooting ideas posted on this and other forums. None of it will help.
If these four things aren't true on your system then by all means you should try all the troubleshooting steps because it's likely that you can resolve your crackling problem.
Here is what is happening with the "EMU Hardware/Driver Related" type of crackling problem. First, let me say that I know what the root of the problem is because I used to work for a company that developed high-end professional video/audio software for Windows PCs. We encountered this exact same problem when some our users started reporting it. It wasn't solely with Creative or EMU hardware because the problem can actually happen on a variety of PC audio cards where the hardware is slightly out of spec or malfunctioning and the software driver is not capable of correcting the problem.
Our most senior software engineers banged their heads against this problem for quite a while until they determined what was going wrong in our customer's PC audio hardware. The issue is that the clock on the card is drifting slightly which means it is going a little faster or slower than the current sample rate. That's why the problem only manifests after a while. It's also why the crackling goes away when you reset the clock. The fundamental issue is that the audio data coming from your PC is being written into a buffer. The data is written by the PC driver and read from the buffer by the card and then sent to the card's output. You can think of the buffer as a big circle of memory. There's a write pointer that writes one value of data and then increments one step and "180 degrees" opposite in the circle of memory is a read pointer that reads one value of data and then increments one step.
These two pointers never move at exactly the same speed. They are constantly slowing down or speeding up a little bit but over time on average they end up advancing at about the same rate. The problem is that when the clock on the card is drifting, the read pointer and write pointer will eventually cross over. That's why the this kind of crackling problem manifests only after a while because, depending on the drifting, it takes a while for the pointers to cross. It's also why the crackling is subtle at first and then gets progressively worse over time. Right when the pointers are overlapping the timing is still close. As one pointer starts to "lap" the other point more and more the crackling artifact gets progressively worse. That's also why the problem usually goes away again if you wait long enough. The pointers can actually get back in phase again for a short while! That's how I know exactly what the current problem is the 1212M board because it manifests with these precise characteristics. The old problem my former companies user's had even sounded exactly the same as the crackling my EMU 1212M has.
Once we understood the problem, in our next version we modified our software to use a larger buffer. This eliminated the problem for some of our customers whose hardware clock was only very slightly out spec. However, for other customers the problem remained, although by increasing the buffer size it made it take longer for the pointers to reach each other and the crackling to begin. This is the what I suspect EMU has done with the new Win7 beta drivers. With the new drivers my crackling takes longer to appear. In these forums we see reports from some long-time sufferers of the problem that the new driver fixed their problem and from others we hear that they are still having the problem.
Since we still had unhappy users of our video/audio application software, we kept working on the issue and eventually came up with a fix that solved the problem for all users and all audio hardware. It was hard to implement but this is what EMU/Creative needs to have their driver engineers do to actually fix the problem (short of replacing an enormous amount of hardware).
The problem can be solved in the driver (yes, my old company actually embedded our own low level generic driver in our application software). Since EMU/Creative is making their driver themselves they can just implement this fix there. The secret is for the driver to actually keep track of where the write and read pointers are and each time they get too close to each other it stretches or shrinks the next packet of data by averaging the audio samples in that packet to the exact size needed to put the pointers 180 degrees apart again. It then resets the pointers as it writes that new data. The data shrink or stretch prevents a single pop or click from happening when the pointers are reset to their correct positions. Frankly, this was hard to implement but it worked perfectly. We actually hired a consultant to figure this audio problem out who was a former Microsoft engineer who wrote the WDM kernal mode drivers.
EMU SUPPORT please let your product manager know that this is what is going on and that he should ask your contract driver engineers to implement this type of solution. Yes, it will cost more in development time (and hence $$$), but it will fix the issue once and for all and not just for this card. You can re-use the code in other drivers.
If you need specific help, I'll even connect you with the engineers that did it for a more detailed explanation (we sold our company years ago and the team has split up but I'm still in contact with most of them).

Markran,
Thank you for the information. I will make sure that it gets routed to the correct people.

Audigy SE: Snap, crackle, pop / hardware not fo

You think you have problems... take a look at mine... all CL relavent... I have a problem that Dell says they can't isolate, and sware they will make Creative's problem if our next course of action doesn't resolve the snap, crackles and pops in games (like Flight simulator 9 and 0, and WoW). Yes,?integrated MB?Sigmatel drivers (merge between CL and another company) and PCI SB cards have the same problems... Snap-crackle-pop and the continual "SCHHHHHH..." sounds. My system is a Dell, which of course, gives me a little support, but not much. Please read... With tech support through Dell from India and Canada, my system, w/o CL cards installed creates snap, crackles and popping sounds in any 3D engine game (like FS 9 and 0, and WoW). Dell has no idea how to solve this problem, after installing drivers for DX, doing and IDE config, reinstalling my onboard Sigmatel drivers, changing the hardware acceleration and sample rates, simply unplugging and plugging back in the input jack leading to the speakers, trying a CL's sound card, like the Audigy SE (with its own problems much like what my onboard integrated Sigmatel drivers do)...etc. Now, to all of you experiencing CL's problems, I have already tried updated drivers, moving the card from one PCI slot to another (through all PCI slots), adjusting volume levels, tried playing a DVD (couldn't hear anything well from the DVD beacuse the volume, though maxed out, wasn't loud enough), tried a SB 5. Dell Digital (same problems), and the list goes on. My system:?OS: Windows Media Center 2005Dell E50 3ghz P4 w/ ATI PCI hypermemory 256 video card(2) free PCI slots available after vidoe and TV out cardSigmatel integrated sound (not a 3D sound engine...they admitted that)2.5 gb DDR2 SDRAM, 400mhz?This isn't top of the line, but the next course of action from Dell is to wipe my system clean of WMC 2005 and install Windows XP Pro, at their cost, not mine (thank God for tech support extended warranty). At least then I will have CL driver's. After reading this post, however, and many on this forum, I find that CL's has not addressed the fundamental "problem". So, I wonder, after all is said and done, CL's hasn't really isolated the problem? What gives? It would appear the OS doesn't matter, so maybe the Chipset does? or is it the 3D sound engine? i am not a tech, and Dell tech support can't figure it out, either. So, any suggestions?

... and by the way, the cards won't even install with CL's software from the CD on to the system. The only way to get any of the cards to work, if at all, was to force the driver to work (going in and saying "I want THIS driver installed"). The software on the CD won't run (multiple cards...dell digital, Audigy SE, li've 5., etc) nor will the downloaded drivers EXE file run. When I forced the driver to work I got the "SCHHHH" sound, instead of the advertised "PERFECT UPGRADE FROM THE BASIC MOTHERBOARD AUDIO TO OUTSTANDING MUSIC, MOVIE AND GAME SOUND". In my case, the sound was no-more superior than a fart in space.

Speakers Crackling/popping

I have crackling/popping in my speakers. I found a solution that says I need to turn off all enhancements. When I open the speaker properties, there isn't an enhancement tab. I have a Sound Blaster Audigy FX card installed.

Audigy2 ZS produces crackling/popping noise if Media player is not started as the first prog

Hello all!
I have had lots of problems installing my Audigy2 ZS Video Editor, but I have finally got it to work (at least under limited conditions).
When I start my laptop, I have to start Windows Media Player right away in order for the music to sound OK (I have the Audigy2 connected to a Pioneer receiver through a digital coax cable).
If I start any other program first (e.g., Microsoft Explorer, Outlook, Word, quicktime) sound from the soundcard is heavily contaminated with crackling, popping and just general noise. The only way to get it to work again is to reboot.
The same problem occurs if I start another media program e.g., Quicktime, winamp, (after having started Windows Media Player) that accesses the soundcard. The only way to get good sound again is to reboot and immediately start Microsoft Media Player.
I have tried lots of things including cleensweep, re-installation, driver update etc. etc...
What is the problem? Is there a cure? Can I adjust some settings to get it to work or is it a serious bug?
If anyone knows what may be the problem and how to solve it, please advise!!!
Thanks!!

Genki,

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
There's pretty much no diagnosing those -- they are the equivalent of the random errors in Windows for which tracing the root cause is fruitless. Basically, these are the last out in the programming code -- some event occurred for which there is no handler in the code. The fix is a code update that handles the event...but, again, knowing what the event is is pretty much impossible. So, there are a few things to try:
Sometimes, the code simply becomes corrupt and needs to be refreshed -- just like a reboot:
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
If it won't boot up cleanly, then you may need to try Safe Mode:
KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in safe mode
There might be an updated code set from the carrier -- check them via this portal:
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
The toughest possible cause is a badly behaving app. To find it, there are a couple of options. One is to see if you can read the log file:
Go to the home screen. Hold down the "alt" key and type 'lglg'. (You will not see anything while you type).This will bring up the log file. Scroll down (probably many pages) untill you see a line that says 'uncaught execption'. Click on this line. The name of the app will be in the info. Alternative methods for bringing up the logs are in this KB:
KB05349How to enable, access, and extract the event logs on a BlackBerry smartphone
The other method is to remove apps one at a time, waiting a while in between (I usually recommend a week), until the problem ceases...thereby discovering the offending app. Still another method is to reload the BB OS cleanly, leaving some time between adding other apps onto the BB so as to be able to determine exactly which one is the cause.
Good luck and let us know!

How do I stop iTunes popping to front ?

how do I stop iTunes popping to front ?
Posted: 09-Sep-2009 22:53
whenever iTunes has a dialogue window open every 30 seconds or so it keeps popping to the front. for example while writing this I have iTunes installing the new iPhone 3.1 software and it has an "updating iPhone" message and it is a real pain.
my last post of this question has had replies disallowed and the problem hasn't been fixed in the new itunes update (9.1)
also run as administrator dosen't work for me though others have had success with this

Not sure if this will solve the whole problem for you, but its solved one of my major issues, so thought worth sharing.
I have the problem that when importing CDs or attaching Ipod the itunes program pops to the front. You can be halfway through a post/email/doc whatever and then it just appears and before you know it youve pressed keys that mean youre listening to Bachmann Turner Overdrive...
Anyway, I have solved this issue by going (in MAC OS X) to the system prefs and CD/DVD and making sure all options in there are set to ignore. In the itunes prefs I have stopped the ipod from auto synching and itunes from opening when you insert anything at all.
Hope this helps and fixes a bit of stuff for people.

Please help me. Thank you very much.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.

An error occured when attempting to change modules .. how to solve this ? Thanks

Hi there,
I installed Lightroom 5, then it asked it for some directory to create some catalogue. I changed was was given default to me to some other directory. It was a mistake.
Then a message saying "An error occured when attempting to change modules" always popped out when I started Lightroom 5.
In fact I uninstalled and reinstall Lightroom 5 again. Ang it gave me the same message. I am not sure why when I reinstall it, it no longer asked me the directory I wanted to create the catalogue but instead gave me the error message straight away...
Any ideas on how to solve this is greatly appreciated as I desperately need to use this Lightroom 5 ...
Thanks

Hi 99Jon,
I installed from CC desktop and you are correct. You are correct, when I install the CC, there is no serial number required or given to me.
Let me explain again the sequence of my problem.
1) I installed the CC desktop after I chose to pay monthly.
2) The installation was perfectly fine, NO asking of serial number
3) I install the Lightroom 5.7.1 without problem and NO asking of serial number too.
4) I run Lightroom 5.7.1 for the first time and it asked me to select a folder for catalogue I didn't select the default directory that it suggested. And this caused problem because it then gives a message saying "An error occurred when attempting to change modules"
5) so I delete the whole Lightroom 5.7.1 and reinstall from CC Apps.
6) The problem still persists and I continue to have the "An error occurred when attempting to change modules" message
7) So I deleted the Lightroom 5.7.1 and reinstall. Problem still persist.
8) So, I did a software update as advised by the link you gave me (ie Solution 1). Interestingly, the update Version is 5.7.1 which I have.
9) After the update installation, I no longer receive "An error occured when attempting to change modules" the message but instead tnow I receive message asking me for serial number. So much problem now ...

how to solve 1015 error messege

Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.
Pull up itunes on a computer and plug the iPad cord into the USB but the the device, hold the "Sleep/Wake" button and the "Home" button at the same time and count to 8. then let go the Sleep/Wake button BUT KEEP YOUR FINGER ON THE HOME BUTTON. while holding the home button connect the device to the cable thats plugged into the computer and keep holding the home button
AT NO TIME SHOULD YOU LET GO OF THAT HOME BUTTON until you see the message pop up in itunes saying "iTunes has discovered your iPad in recovery mode" then just go through the screens to restore the device.
if that message doesn't pop up after about 20 seconds, then call apple care, let them know you tried to perform the DFU mode restore (Deivce Firmware Update) and it was a no go. and ask them if you're in warranty to replace it for free.
