  • Cant get Rear Speakers working...

    Well... I got soundblaster audigy ...and Front left and front right is working... but i cant get the rears to work... I got the output of the amp.. into black hole of the sound card... was there anymore i was supposed to do.. e.g setup ?... thanks in advance

    Output of the amp into black jack connector?
    Do you mean Amp-->black jack or black jack -> amp (i.e. which way do you want the signal go: PC-->amp or amp-->PC?)? If the latter then just connect the amp output into line-in of soundcard.
    Normally, if you want to playback (stereo) audio from PC through external amp, your settings for Audigy are:
    - speakers set to 4/4.
    - CMSS ON, Stereo Surround
    (- try also different device driver modes in your playback software (DirectSound, MME, WDM, etc.))
    If you're using nati've ASIO capable player as like NI BeatPort Player, you just set the speaker mode to 4/4. and set the software output through Rear L/R.

  • Conflicting Channel Assignments -- Xtreme Gamer X-Fi and Logitech Z-5300 Speak

    I do know there is a similar post here about the Z-5500 series of speakers, and I do understand they are in the same family, but my problem is neither fixable with the suggestions in the post, nor is it the same as those people have posted. Thus I have deemed mine unique.
    My current rig:
    Intel Quad Core Extreme 2.6ghz
    Asus Striker Extreme nForce motherboard
    4GB Mushkin DDR RAM
    500 GB Hard Dri've
    Creative Labs Soundblaster X-Fi Extreme Gamer
    2x EVGA GeForce 8800 Ultra
    Windows Vista 64-bit
    Logitech Z-5300 5. Speaker System
    So I had some problems initially getting surround sound to work on this computer (but nothing like what I am experiencing now), but finally after a day of messing around and tweaking I had awesome, crisp sound for about a month now. All 5 speakers and the sub in this system were performing correctly. All of a sudden today, I changed NOTHING, I was actually in the middle of listening to music and the sound started cutting in and out on certain speakers.
    I rebooted, still had the same issue. I decided to check the connectivity of every speaker and the stereo mini-plugs that link the speaker system to the sound card. Everything checked out, I ran the diagnostics agent and the THX console and the channel test worked fine. I put music back on and the same thing happened, in frustration I checked the wires. I grabbed the wires which connect computer to speakers (subwoofer) and jiggling the wires made the sound cut in and out on 2 speakers (but not 2 speakers which share the same channel, it was the RL and FL.) Thinking that I had crunched a wire I swapped them with 3 other mini-plugs...same thing happened. I then ran the diagnostic/speaker assignment agent several times, getting completely and utterly nonsensical output. Subwoofer noises coming from the RR, no center channel at all ever etc. The bizarre assignments actually kept changing themselves too.
    From here on I entered a six-hour flurry of frustrating trials. I did the common-sense stuff, checked connections (because I do have some speakers extended with a coupling and RCA cable), powered system and speakers down several times. Finally I deemed it may be a Vista/software issue (since Vista thought that just for sillies the other day it would randomly uninstall one of my video cards, I thought I could be having similar issues) I uninstalled/reinstalled the latest X-fi drivers and all the components. Still the issue persisted, any time I ran a channel test the speaker assignments were totally wrong, with no way to correct them.
    I then resigned myself to the fact it must be a hardware issue, maybe I had knocked my sound card out slightly, or maybe the it was just too hot (its placement in my case is rather poor, the only place it fits is between the two monstrous GeForce 8800s which are just heatbricks.) I powered down my case, let things cool off, popped the card out and back in. Did another driver reinstall...same issues...just different channels scrambled.
    For the last hour now the results of THX speaker tests in the audio console have at least been consistent (before it was just random scrambling) now I get the FL, no center sound, front right, rear right comes from the subwoofer, no rear left, no subwoofer. I have no explanation for any of this. I had no issues until today, and I gotta say this one ambushed me. I have never experienced anything more random or stubborn.
    Any thoughts and suggestions would be much appreciated, as much as spending even more money on this hobby pains me, I am very close to attempting to purchase new speakers just to give me some peace of mind.

    There was aWindows update with some sound drivers recently, that may explain why this happened unexpectedly recently. Try rolling back your drivers. Question, you mention Vista and XP64, which do you have?I can't get 5. under XP64 with 4gig of RAM, if you had yours working under XP64 can I get a copy of your old driver?

  • New 5s and cant get it to discover or be discovered via bluetooth

    Just upgraded to the 5s and i cant get it to discover or be discovered via bluetooth. My iPad wont even find it!!! Any help would be appreciated

    Hi
    You can't use Bluetooth to pair iOS devices with other iOS devices or Computers (Macs or PCs) as it's not part of the OS.
    You can connect iOS devices to some bluetooth enabled cars, speakers, keyboards etc. Apple provide a list for supported bluetooth profiles here:

  • Center Speaker plays center sounds and rear sounds. Inspire 5.1 5300 speakers.

    My inspire 5.1 5300 speakers are set up for 5.1 surround sound. I have CMSS enabled. I hear static from the rear speakers. Everything seems to be set up just fine. But when I run the speaker test the front right, center, and front left work. The rear left and rear right speaker sound comes out of the center speaker instead of the rear speakers even though the center speaker also gives out the correct test sound.
    I have an audigy card, SB0090 is the model number. I don't know the retail name.
    Message Edited by lukivah on 04-24-2006 10:22 AM

    I dont see how the sub wont work. It has the seperate front, rear, and center in. The sub should work with just the front in as far as i know. My SBS 450 seems to work that way... i have yet to get my inspire 5.1 working but ill find out if i happen to..

  • Cant get Fast Track USB to work

    HELP!!! Please!!! I just bought the M-Audio USB Fast Track, and I cant get it to work!!! I have an iBook G4, and I wanted to connect my guitar directly to the computer, but the iBook doesnt have an audio-in. The problem, is that I cant get GarageBand to recognize the M-Audio. I already set it as the input audio in the system preferences, but I cant record my guitar and I feel really stupid.
    Someone knows what is going on?? Please help me!

    Try starting Garage Band, then go to preferences -> audio/midi and setting the fast track as your audio in and out device.
    You should quit and restart GB after you do this so it initializes properly.
    You will have to plug your speakers into your fast track to monitor your recordings so you might need to buy some cables.

  • Cant get a ring tone when some one calls or a tone for mymessages

    cant get a ring tone when people call same with my messages and i cant hear callers unless i pt it on speaker

    I just reread your message and at first I thought you wanted to get ringtones. Now I think you meant you don't hear sounds unless you are on speakerphone. I would try a Restart to seeif it learns your issue. To Restart Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

  • Connecting Logitech 5.1 speakers

    I am considering the Logitech Z-5300 system but how to connect. The people at Best Buy are clueless unfortunately. Do I just need to get an optical cable and plug that into the audio out port on the back? I just need some info on this so I don't have to do the trial and error thing. So what will I need to connect everything and not have a big project going on with bigger expense?

    Something like THIS.
    Yes!! Now, where do you find one of these?? Creative doesn't seem to actually have it in their online store, nor does any of my usual sources (amazon, newegg, etc), and google searches only turn up .. vendors I've never ever heard of and not sure I would order anything from.
    Even an ebay search turns up .. barely 1 entry.
    Is this thing even available anymore??

  • I CANT GET 5.1 SOUND CONECTING A EXTERNAL DVD PLAYER TO SPDIF

    I CANT GET 5. SOUND CONECTING A EXTERNAL DVD PLAYER TO SPDIF OF?MY?LIVE DRIVE SOUND BLASTER LIVE 5. PLATINUM, WHY NOT? IS THE SPDIF LIVE DRIVE IN STEREO ONLY?

    [list][*]Enjoy captivating 5. multi-channel surround sound with CMSS. [color="#ff0000"]Works with any software DVD-Player that supports Dolby Digital or DTS decoding for cinema-like movie experience.<[/list]?[url="http://forums.creative.com/creativelabs/board/message?board.id=soundblaster&message.id=270]Digital Connections, SPDIF and Dolby Digital Info[/url]?[b]Digital Connections[/b]Digital connections come in two standard forms, optical and coax. They both give you exactly the same result, the only difference is the medium (material)?through which the signal travels. [color="#ff0000"]The thing to remember about digital is that for ordinary, uncompressed?sound, it will only carry a stereo signal.
    So, if you like to use CMSS with your music, or you try the speaker test function,?optical/coax is useless as you only hear the front left/right speakers.?Movies wth Dolby Digital (AC3) & DTSMovies on DVD often use encoded?audio in the form of Dolby Digital (AC3) or DTS. This means that all 6 channels are compressed into a single stream of digital data. A decoder is required to extract the channels and send the sound to the correct speakers. There are three ways to do this.
    ) Pass the AC3/DTS signal to a external decoder.?This is where your optical/coax connection is used. To?go down this route, you must first have a?set of speakers or a decoder that?supports Dolby Digital.
    In your DVD software, select 'SPDIF' as the audio output method and 'SPDIF Pass-through' in?your?soundcard options. What this does is?tells both the software and soundcard to leave the audio from the DVD in compressed form and send it straight through the digital outputs. Your?digital speakers/receiver will do all the decoding to give you full surround sound.
    Please note that this?is the only way to get 6 channels through an optical/coax cable.
    2) Decode the AC3/DTS with your Sound Blaster ?You should choose this option if?you don't have an external decoder. In the DVD software, select 'SPDIF' as the audio output method and make sure that 'SPDIF Pass-through' in the souncard options is?off. The DVD software will now pass the compressed audio to your soundcard, which will then decode the data. The soundcard will output the 6 channels using the?analogue connections (or digital DIN, more on this later). If you try?to use a digital optical/coax connection to your speakers, you will only hear faint sounds from the front left/right speakers.
    3) Decode the AC3/DTS with software.?If you have a soundcard that doesn't support Dolby Digital (like the SB Li've! 24-bit) and you don't have digital speakers, the only way for you to get surround sound in movies is to use software to decode the AC3/DTS. The free versions of DVD software you get with hardware often don't support this feature,? you will most likely need a full version. First select 'Dolby Digital' or 'DTS' decoding in the DVD software audio options (you must select the right?sound format for the movie you are watching). Then make sure that 'SPDIF Pass-through' in the soundcard options is off. As with method (2) you must connect your speakers with the 3 analogue cables, not optical/coax.

  • My macbook pro no longer connects to my TV with the mini dvi to hdmi adapter. It was working fine now I cant get it to output to the Tv. Any ideas?

    My Macbook pro no longer outputs to my vizio led tv. It was working fine now I cant get any picture. It just says no signal. It is not the hdmi or the adapter because it works fine with my other tv. Any ideas on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Please be as specific as possible. Thanks. BTW--I am using the mini dvi to hdmi adapter in case that was unclear.

    Since you say that the same connectors work on your other TV is suggests that the fault is not in the connectors but your Vizio TV.  I would check the settings on the Vizio TV.  Verify that is is set to receive HDMI input.  Perhaps you or some one else has inadvertently changed them.  Pressing the wrong buttons on a remote control device can do that.  (I am assuming no changes were made in SYSTEM PREFERENCES>DISPLAYS)

  • I cant get itunes on my new laptop.  My laptop says I have to remove itunes from another computer as I can only have it on 5.  Problem is that apart from my ipad, I no longer have the others as they were either broken beyond repair or lost.  Any ideas?

    I am not good with computers.  I am trying to get my iTunes onto this new laptop but it says I am only allowed to have it on 5 computers and I must take it off one to ut it on this new laptop.  Problem is, apart from my iPad, I have lost one laptop and two have been broken beyond repair so I am unable to take it off!  Anyone any ideas?  I have tried to get iTunes support but cant get past the "date of purchase" as I can only guess when I bought my ipod (2009)

    Hang on...
    You can only authorise the songs you purchase from the iTunes Store to play on five computers.
    You can download and install iTunes (the iTunes programme) onto as many computers as you wish.
    Two different things.
    Assuming therefore, that your problem is that you have authorised five computers, but now no longer have some of them, you need to de-authorise all your computers and then re-authorise the computers you still have.
    To de-authorise your computers, go to your account in the iTunes Store and look for the Deauthorise All button.

    I tried downloading a free app and it asked for my billing information and when I entered it, it said that there was a billing problem with a previous purchase and I have to update it. I keep updating it and it wont let me verify it and I cant get any apps even if they are free, and I just Deleted some apps to make room for my new upate!

    The message says: "The payment method has been denied, try another method"
    I'm living in the same country and city since I was born, so I don't think the location is the problem.

  • How do I get my new iphone restored with my old backup? my old iphone had ios5 and the replacement phone i got has ios4 and it wont let me backup my phone because it doesnt have ios4... i cant get ios5 without restoring my iphone and backing it uo

    Basically, i need all my old stuff from my iphone 4 with ios5 onto my new iphone 4.  The new phone i received only had ios4. I went to get all my contacts and backup from my old phone onto my new phone and it wont let me because my new phone is only ios4 and my backup from my old phone was in ios5.  I cant get ios5 on my phone without creating a new backup of my new phone, which has nothing on it.  If i restore it as a new phone and backup virtually nothing from my new phone, will that get rid of all my old backup stuff from my old iphone?

    Bottom line is you CANNOT restore to a phone from a backup that has a more recent iOS which is what you're trying to do.  Just can't be done.
