HQ-2300D headphones - stuttering sound when used with laptop

Hi!
I didn't find any headphone forum, but the speaker forum seems close enough...
I've had the HQ-2300D Dolby Headphone headphones for a few months. They work (very!) well with my separate DVD player (a Pioneer model). Now I've bought a Dell XPS M70 laptop, and I've started having problems.
In short: when playing DVDs, the adapter (or converter) switches frequently between Dolby Digital and Stereo mode, creating a very disturbing chopped-up sound. Inbetween it works, but especially quiet scenes are *very* choppy.
Now, I've tried the same scenes with the *exact* same setup - same DVD player software, same settings, but instead connected to my home cinema system (Marantz surround receiver). That sound flawless and does not show the same behaviour.
Again, please note that the headphones work fine when connected to the digital out of my "hardware" DVD player.
So, what can I do? Is there an issue with the decoder? Too sensitive? Is the signal too weak? Please help! This is one of the reasons I wanted these headphones to begin with!
For the record: WinXP, all drivers and BIOS updated, Sigmatel STAC9200 HD Audio, tried both PowerDVD and VLC with the same effect.

The recording works in Notes, but not when I open Webcam and try to record from there. video recording works fine. I have had this computer less than a month and I am having a couple of problems with it. Still loving it though.

ExecuteNonQuery doesnt return number of rows affected when used with PL/SQL

ExecuteNonQuery doesn't return number of rows affected when used with PL/SQL but returns -1. The documentation says ExecuteNonQuery method of OracleCommand returns the number of raws affected but when used with PL/SQL, it returns -1 even the update statement successfully executes and affects multiple records with no exeptions thrown.
However, if ExecuteNonQuery is used with update sql statement in the asp.net code it returns number of rows affected correctly. Does anybody know why ExecuteNonQuery behaves like this?
I am using ODP.NET that comes with Oracle Client 11g. The version is 2.111.6.20 of ODP.NET, Oracle database server is 10g.
Marat

You can get the rowcount in the stored procedure via SQL%ROWCOUNT and then pass it out as a parameter.
For example:
SQL> create or replace procedure updatesal(v_deptno in number, v_rowsaff out number) as
2 begin
3 update emp set sal = sal * 5 where deptno = v_deptno;
4 v_rowsaff := SQL%ROWCOUNT;
5 end;

Procedure created.Cheers

Test runner freezing when used with Dynamics CRM (and other apps) - Both applications freeze and never come back...

We are trying to use test runner with dynamics CRM.
MS Dynamics CRM will freeze and will not respond (even after 10 - 15 minutes). When this happens, the test manager will either freeze or a message will apear saying "waiting for application under test".
We are not recording action recordings...This makes using test manager impossible. It happens consistently, starting with slowing the PC down (mouse moving slowly, slow to load in new screens, drop downs etc) eventually leading to the app freezing.
Tried on windows xp, windows 7 etc on various specs of pcs.

I am experiencing this same issue with
Test runner freezing when used with Dynamics CRM. I notice this was first posted in June of 2010 and so far no
resolution? I was wondering if it could be related to memory issues? Do you have any troubleshooting ideas? The
issue for me seems to be sporadic and I can't
reproduce it every time.
The message I get is "waiting on application under test".

Tecra A9 - external Monitor shows stripes when using the Laptop pluged.

Hello
I've heard about at least 3 Tecras A9 witch produces stripes on the external Monitor only when the Laptop is pluged. When using the Laptop with the battery, the Monitor works just fine. they tried to divide the cables of the Monitor and the power supply as far as possible, but still the same problem. When using the Laptop with a non-toshiba-AC Adaptor, the external Monitor is working fine.

Hello
In my opinion you should visit nearest authorized Toshiba service provider. They can connect your Tecra to external monitors and test it. If the result is the same I am pretty sure you will get AC adapter replacement for free.
Do not wait and discuss for days here. Contact them and I hope they will help you.

Popping / clicking sound when using headphones

I just got a new iMac and I've noticed when using headphones I get this popping or clicking noise at cerain times. If the computer doesn't produce sound for a while, it's like the audio driver "shuts down" and the headphones go very quiet, then when the computer has to make a sound, it makes a "pop" noise before it loads the new sound (regardless of the file or program used). Then I'll leave it for a minute or so, and it "pops" and the headphones go very silent (there was a slight static noise before). I don't get this happening when running the headphones through a USB audio card. Is this normal behaviour for Mac OS?

Looks like this is a software issue (in part at least). By installing this simple script:
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/29024/antipop
you can keep it from happening (more than once). The script keeps the audio system from shutting down, so you only get a pop on startup and that's it. I still don't know if this popping is normal behaviour or points to some faulty hardware.

Blip sound when using skype in conjunction with ga...

I wonder if you can help me. I play a game called Guildwars and have downloaded the latest version which is Guild Wars 2. The game is good and I use Skype to play with other players around the world. In Guildwar 1 Skype worked wonderfully but in 2 I can play the game with no interferrence solo but when I play with other players I get a continuous bleep sound coming from my computer box. I have moved Hub and anything that could cause interferance even uninstalled and reinstalled skype but the bleep sound is still there when playing with people on skype. I have raised this question with them to see if they have the same problem but they dont, hence the reason for help from skype? before I go further into it. Can anyone help. I have been in contact with my IT guys and they say that there is some sort of interferrance being caused can skype isolate that to prevent this bleeping>
Also on the previous version of Skype I was able to close current conversation with people unfortunately now I have to close down my system to terminate call can you advise about this also.

No Sound when Using HDMI from ATT DVR to TV

I have a 52xv645u TV. When I connect it to my ATT UVerse DVR using HDMI I get picture but no sound. Using Composite everything works fine. I've tried several HDMI cables. If I use HDMI to my Surround Sound amp, I get both picture and sound (even with the amp volume muted). The problem seems to be the connection between the DVR and the TV. Does this TV support HDSC? I believe that the DVR requires it to support it on the TV.
I see that there is an upgrade for the firmware for this TV. I have a Mac so the instructions don't work right. I've downloaded the files to a flash drive but I am not sure if they are correct because there is no list of files available. Does anyone know what files are needed so I can be sure that my flash drive has everything it needs?
Any help with these problems would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Mark

Is there a list of things that are fixed in the update? I can get sound and picture through component but I fear that it's not the same quality as it would be through HDMI. But again, it's only when I watch TV without going through my surround sound amp. I can watch TV through my apm and watch my Bluray DVDs through the amp and it goes via HDMI.
