How to connect SB X-FI XTREME MUSIC with Creative Inspire 5.1 Digital 5

Hi,
I want to know what I have to do to connect my x-fi xtreme music with my creative inspire 5. digital 5700 due to listen music with all? 5 twiters. I have windows vista ultimate 32bits. Thanks!?JoanMessage Edited by joanantoni on 07-9-200703:54 AM

With your Inspire 5. Digital 5700, your best bet is?using the analog Front and Rear input connections on the decoder and connect them to the X-Fi Xtreme Music front (Line Out )?and rear (Line?Out 2)?output connections and then enable CMSS Music or CMSS Movie Mode on your Digital 5700 decoder which will then give you a 4./5. Upmix. Gi'ven that you don't have a Center connection on the the Inspire 5. Digital 5700, no connection can made to the your Front Center satelite speaker/Subwoofer (Line Out 3) on your X-Fi Xtreme Music card. I'm led to understand that Creative speaker systems do not need Bass Redirection to reproduce proper Bass frequencies on your Subwoofer and not on your satelite speakers but you may want to test this simply enabling and disabling Bass Redirection, on your X-Fi Xtreme Music sound card, to your own personal taste. Alternately, you can concurrently connect your Inspire 5. Digital 5700 via the Coxial Digital/PCM Input to the FlexiJack input/output jack on the X-Fi Xtreme Music and then enable Digital I/O mode for the FlexiJack in the Audio Console found in the Windows Control Panel or?in the Entertainment Mode or Game Mode Consoles. Unfortunately the FlexiJack only provides a 2 conductor connection therefore it only supports 2. Speaker system connections?therefore you will still have to enable the CMSS Music or CMSS Movie Modes on your Inspire 5. Digital 5700 decoder to produce a 4./5. sound upmix. Sadly, no optical connection can be made between your Inspire 5. Digital 5700 and your X-Fi Xtreme Music sound card without the installation of the X-Fi I/O Dri've or X-Fi I/O Console at, of course, additional expense. From my standpoint, the X-Fi I/O Dri've is a good value given the number of external inputs and outputs in offers. Again, it's a matter of what your personal connection requirements are and budget. Hope this hel

  • How to get Realtek HD Audio to work with Creative Inspire 5.1 5200?

    Hi,
    I have a problem with correctly setting the Realtek HD Audio with my Creative Inspire 5200 5.1 speaker set. I don't get any sound on all of them when test button is clicked, only surround speakers work. They were working on my old PC. I did a search on this forum and Internet, but could not find any solution to this specific problem.
    Setting:
    * MSI drivers: 6.0.1.6267, directx 11, ALC 892
    * Speakers set to default audio device
    * Plugged in 3 jacks, colors matching (3 in a row - black:rear, orange: center/subwoofer, green:side speakers)
    * On Realtek HD Audio Manager: Speaker configuration: 5.1 Speaker; Optional spakers: center, subwoofer, rear pair checked; full range speakers: front left and right and surround speakers checked; speaker fill/swap/bass management disabled.
    What I get:
    * left surround clicked: OK
    * right surround clicked: OK
    * No sound from others
    Tests:
    * Checked not muted
    * Checked volume control, not set to zero
    * Rechecked cables from MB to Creative Subwoofer
    * Rechecked cables from Creative Subwoofer to speakers
    * Checked other spaker configuration settings:
    - Stereo : no sound
    - Quadro: only surround spakers OK
    - 7.1: surround spakers OK + left 2nd surround sound comes from right front speaker
    Any directions are very much appreciated
    Cheers
    Bülent
    PS: See signature for my setup

    I get something very similar with my Logitech 5.1 setup. However, I'm using a Creative Pro sound card. Some reminders for you. Remember that everyday normal sound is not encoded DD 5.1, i.e. Windows prompts, MP3, etc. 2 channel left and right stereo sound only nets 2 speakers even though you have 5.1. Unless you've set the sound card, or speaker controler to convert normal 2 channel left and right stereo to DD 5.1 you will only hear 2 speakers. It takes software that's dolby digital encoded to bring all 5.1 speakers to life. For example for every day computer sound my logitch speaker controller is set to "stereo x 2.1". With this setting the contoller sends 2 channel stereo to the front 2 speakers as well as rear 2 speakers plus the sub woofer. My center channel stays quiet until I change the controller effect to DD 5.1. I would change the speaker controller to DD 5.1 if I were to watch a DD 5.1 encoded DVD movie, or play a DD 5.1 encoded game. Keep in mind unless the software is encoded DD 5.1 anything you hear through all 5.1 speakers is SIMULATED! IMO the stereo x 2.1 sounds MUCH better than simulated DD 5.1. 
    Thank you for your answer, but I couldn't go so far yet I know some about sound and sound setups as I'm working in this area, namely video editing, sound processing, montage etc.
    The problem is at "test button" level, somehow the mobo cannot drive the correct lines :(

  • How to connect ipod in the JVC music apparatus?

    I wanna know how to connect ipod touch on some music apparatus? I ve got JVC player and i put my ipod there but it doesent work. Pls help!

    Does JVC say it will work with your mode iPod and its iOS?  There can be two reasson for problems. 
    - One is the the dock is not compatible with the iOS on the iPod.
    - The other is the configurate of the connector on the dack prevents agoo connection with the iPOd.  This is particularly true for the 4G IPod since the dock conection are is slanted.

  • X-FI Xtreme Music with I/O Drive Upgrade Driv

    Hello,
    I just installed the I/O Dri've Upgrade and so far everything works after I installed the cd that came with the kit.
    When I went to Creative Labs webpage and did an autoupdate to check the drivers, it told me that I have a X-FI Platinum instead of a X-FI Xtreme Music.
    I just wanted to check with you as I know the X-FI Xtreme Music with the upgrade kit is basically a X-FI Platinum, however should I install drivers for the X-FI Platinum in the future?

    Yeah that's what I did - they're basically exactly the same card, but one comes with the I/O dri've and the other doesn't.

  • How to connect to Windows 2008 VPN server with certificate support

    Unfortunatelly if I select any Windows 2008 server compatible protocol (PPTP, L2TP) I cannot select PKI certificate, its only available for Cisco VPN. Yet my company has 1000 laptops and utilizing Windows 2008 Server for VPN (Cisco is too expensive and unnecessary because VPN is part of Windows Server). PKI certificate is required for connection security.
    Any plans to enable certificates for PPTP or L2TP in 2.1 firmware? Even better would be to add SSTP protocol with certificate support, because it takes only one standard TCP connection (https) per user (uses least possible NAT resources for heavy loaded NATed WiFi spots). Also in some public places https is the only option to connect as PPTP and L2TP are filtered.

  • Question about connect X-Fi Xtreme Music with 5.1 Home Theater (analog inp

    I want to connect my X-Fi to new speaker. (exact model : EACAN A200 5.)
    but it has only 6 analog input ( center,sub,front l/r,rear l/r )
    if i connect it with Creative Home Theater Cable
    ( http://asia.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=3&subcategory=55&product=4309 &nav=0 )
    will it work perfectly? because i think this cable made for 7. speaker, will i miss sound that came from side l/r channels ?
    If i can't use this cable, How can i connect X-fi to a new speaker?
    Message Edited by chunbogbog on 04-09-2008 06:0 AM

    since u are using 5. speaker, you only need to directly connect the cable from ur speaker to the sound card output, no need to use Creative Home Theater Cable.
    and remember to set your sound card to 5. no matter u use what cable, since ur speaker is 5. only...if u play 7. content movie, the side L/R will directly map to the rear speaker, so no "miss sound" issue...understand?

    How to connect macbook pro to panasonic hd tv with hdmi cable

    Hi m,
    It depends which MPB you have and the inputs on the TV. The following assumes your TV has an HDMI input which will work with a computer.
    This is if your MBP is from April 2010 or newer:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241
    First connect the adapter to the MBP and the HDMI cable from the adapter to the TV, then go to System Preferences > Sound > Output > select HDMI.
    Or if your MBP is older than that and you have a Mini DisplayPort, you can use something like this: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/NewerTech/CBLMDPHDMID/
    If it's older than that, for video you need a DVI or mini DVI to HDMI or whatever input your TV has. For audio, you need a 3.5mm stereo mini plug to RCA or optical (Toslink), depending on what audio input your TV has.
