How to interrupt sound output?

Hello,
I need help with one problem. I have VI that plays waveform. And I need to interrupt it in any moment during playing, and to perform new playing with new waveform. When I use Sound Output  Stop and Sound Output Clear in different combinations, Sound Output Write is stopped and program drops down.
Can somebody help? 

Hi,
I mean that program paused due to Sound Write pause. And the only way to continue dataflow is Play Sound function. But I need to interrupt playing and perform new one with new settings. I've attached two screenshots to clear situation.

  • How to change sound output?

    Howdy
    I recently bought a high-end toslink cable which I connected from the optical/digital out from my iMac to my receiver. The sound quality is excellent, however I noticed that all sounds now gets passed to my Hifi system all the time. The only way (I could find) to route sound to the internal speakers is by physically unplug the cable. This is really not workable in the long run as it wears down the plug and, not to mention, my patience...
    So, anyone know any way to switch output to internal speakers w/o having to unplug the cable? Or is there another approach (I'm thinking Airport Express)?
    /Cheers

    Unfortunately, you cannot select +Internal speakers+ in System Preferences Sound pane Output tab, if you have something plugged into the audio output port.
    If you got an AirPort Express, its AirTunes feature would certainly work for iTunes output. However, I believe AirTunes would only play the output of iTunes. So it would work great as long as you were only playing songs and videos using iTunes, because all other sounds will come from your computer speakers. No need to change any setting manually, after you are done listening over the stereo system. However, it would not work so great, if you wanted the audio output of some other programs to be played from the stereo system; but there seems to be a third-party solution for that issue

    If you have separate powered computer speakers that connect using a standard mini-jack, one alternative is to get a USB (or possibly FireWire) sound output device (if you want to be able to change the sound output setting manually). The least expensive one may be the Griffin iMic.
    http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/imic/
    It provides a second sound output port over USB, so it should show up as a separate choice in System Preferences Sound pane Output tab. Therefore, you should be able to use the Sound preference pane to manually switch the sound output from you stereo system to the computer speakers connected over the USB iMic.

  • Interrupt sound output

    I am writing a one minute sound file to the sound card using the Labview 2011 Sound Output Write vi.  The sound starts to play and there doesn't appear to be any way to stop it until the entire file has played.  Not even the Abort Execution button will stop it.  I have looked at the KB article called Stopping a Sound File during Playback, but it was written a long time ago before Sound Output Write became available.
    I have tried using an event structure with Sound Output Stop and Sound Output Clear but it doesn't work.  In fact the event never fires.  It is as if Sound File writes lock out everything until the complete. Example is attached.

    Gerd,
    Thanks for taking an interest in my problem.  But you miss the point entirely.
    Here is what labview help says about Sound Output Stop:
    "Stops the device from playing sound from the buffer. Use the Sound Output Clear VI to clear the data in the buffer."
    Well.  It doesn't.  In fact it doesn't do anything.  It is totally useless.  I posted my query in the hope that I was missing something and that someone could show me what it was. 
    I think you will agree that Sound Output Clear.vi doesn't work.  I think that is a bug, don't you? 
    You state that Sound Output Write VI uses an uninterruptible system DLL call.  Bug number 2?
    You suggest breaking up the sound output file into a series of very short writes so that I can stop where I want.  I agree that that will work.  But shouldn't Sound Output Write do that for me if Labview is to provide an interruptible sound output capability?
    Now as far as violating Labview data flow niceties, yes, I was in a hurry and I was just trying to create something which would demonstrate the problem.  If you want, move the Sound Output Write into the loop and you will see the exact same result.
    I have an old PC with Labview 7.1.  I'm going to fire it up and see if the old sound VI's have the same problem.

    David

  • How to get sound output to TV via HDMI on my Equium

    I've connected to TV via HDMI to view downloaded BBC content.
    How can I get the sound?

    Hi Misterg,
    Normally if your notebook connect to TV the sound will automatically switched to TV as the picture. If I connect the notebook to TV I always have sound without changing some settings.
    If not you have to set the Digital output device as default device. I have made a screenshot of this:

  • How to renew sound output choices

    Macbook Pro, OS 10.6.3.
    I recently optimized my files and volumes using Techtool Pro 5.0.7. Soon after, I noticed there was no sound coming from the computer speakers on the laptop. No other odd behavior from the computer. When I checked the sound preference panel, the "internal speakers" choice was completely missing. Where is the relevant file stored in the mac OS? and how do I do something to restore that choice in the preference panel list, hopefully without having to reload the entire system? Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

    Oddly enough, the choice re-emerged without doing anything. Weird.

  • How do you switch output sounds   set to my external monitor that is connected via HDMI.

    How do you switch output sounds   set to my external monitor that is connected via HDMI. 

    Hello gail from Ajijic,
    If you'd like to change the audio output of your Mac, you can do so by accessing the Sound preferences in your System Preferences.
    Before you start, open the Output pane of Sound preferences (choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Sound, then click Output).
    Choose a sound output device
    From the list of sound output devices, select the one you want to use. All sound output devices available to your Mac are listed, including the computer’s internal speakers, devices plugged into your computer’s sound port (), USB speakers, and AirPlay devices.
    For any device plugged into the computer’s sound port, choose Headphones.

  • How to set default sound output

    How do I set the default sound output?  I'm outputting to a USB converter but Mavericks switches to internal speakers on its own with no warning, most times in the middle of a song. Doesn't matter whether I'm using iTunes or a 3rd party music playback app.

    I too have the same setup as you and use my streamer with all of my Apple devices. I've found it necessary to turn off Bluetooth in the devices I don't want to connect to when they are all within range of one another. If you don't need Bluetooth on your Mac turn it off. I've also found that if I'm connected to my Mac and a call comes in to my iPhone that the phone will take priority.

  • System preferences in iMac for sound output shows only headphones. How do I change this to get sound through computer? Thanks.

    In sound System preferences on iMac  headphones is only option for sound output. How do I change this to get sound output through computer, as in a video etc. Thanks.

    There is a switch in the jack that may be stuck. Try plugging and unplugging a headset plug into the socket a few times.
    You might try dipping the headset plug into some pure alcohol, wiping it nearly dry, and repeating the process to clean/clear the socket.

    Hello there sjbrosjbro,
    It sounds like you are not able to print to your printer because it keeps timing out when you try. I would use the troubleshooting steps from the following article to help you get that printer going again. It may be something as simple as re adding the printer if you've already restarted both the printer and the computer already:
    Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3147
    USB printers and Bonjour-enabled network printers
    Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
    Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
    Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
    Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
    Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
    Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
    If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
    Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
    If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again.  Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
    Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • How do I restore missing sound output device in system preferencces?

    How do I restore a missing sound output device in the System Preferences. My MacBook Pro only shows a Digital output in the Sound pane and a red light at the Digital Output Port.

    If your model has an audio-out (headphone) port, and a red light is coming from it, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.

  • How to use Airport Express as a sound output device

    Guys,
    Is there a way that I can use Airport Express as a sound output device? So, I can play all the sound on my HIFI.
    thanks in advance

    In order to listen to the non-iTunes audio streams through your Airport Express you will need to use the third party software Airfoil.

  • How can I change default audio / sound output or remove the displayport audio option?

    I upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite and while I don't have any of the number of issues that see to accompany that move, I've discovered a different one that is not necessarily related to it, but is irritating.
    2014 Macbook Pro Retina
    I use a thunderbolt to displayport (AKA just displayport) cable to attach a Dell monitor to my mac at the desk.
    Prior to this update, the mac ignored the display as far as audio was concerned (the Dell does NOT have audio built in).  But now it seems to think it does.
    Moreover, it continually switches back to that Sound output in the preferences whenever I plug or unplug an audio source from the audio jack.  This is Annoying!
    Is there any  way to either
    1) set the default to prefer the internal speakers / headphones instead of the DP?
    2) remove the Sound output for the DisplayPort connection (which is a false connection since the Dell doesn't actually have AUDIO)
    Thanks much

    I found the com.apple.audio.SystemSettings.plist and Com.apple.audio.DeviceSettings.plist, but can't make sense of either enough to feel confident in altering any entries there.  here's the SystemSettings one that seems like it might have something you could change, but...

    You probably can't because it looks like your MacBook Pro is too old to carry audio over HDMI. You will need to run a separate audio cable from the audio out port on the MacBook Pro to the audio in port on the TV.
    Check your MacBook Pro model year against the list in this Apple tech note:
