Logitech z5300e and Audigy 2 Zs h

When I try to play music or anything, the only channel that seems to be "working" is the center channel, and that is just pure static. Any ideas on the problem?

Plasmeh,
How do you have the speakers connected? The preferred way is to connect it using the analog connectors. Please go through this article to check your connections:

Will Xbox, Logitech X-530 5.1 speakers and Audigy 2 NX combo decode dolby digit

Hi there
I have a Xbox, Logitech X-530 5. speaker system and Audigy 2 NX sound card. I want Audigy 2 NX sound card to decode dolby digital from its optical-in? (optical in is from the XBOX) .. Is it possible? If yes, how? If not, what is the solution? Can Extigy external sound card do it's
Also, can be Audigy 2 NX external sound card be stand alone instead of always being connected to the PC? I just want it to be connected to XBOX to decode dolby digital 5...
Thanks!

it is relevant for me to post in here as someone was asking if the aud 2 zs plat dri'ves optical in or coaxial in could be used for connecting up to an external source sch as dvd player, xbox.
And i am in technical supports hand about my prouducts, so if yo u ban me i will be insisting they take action against you , as i have a valid reason for posting into these forums.
I have spent over ?3,000 on creative proucts, and the last 2 things i purchased from, creative cost ?450 the gigaworks s 750 speakers, and the audigy 2 zs platinum.
And therefore i am entitled to speak the truth.
Some one asked if the connection is possible, i am not the only person using the hardware that is having decoding lag whilst using optical in on li've dri've, it's just that not many people that have this hardware are using it like this, so they don't realise that they will have problems if they ever decide to use external dvd players, instead of the software ones like powerdvd windvd etc.
I am forwarding this entire thread to creative technical support guy that i am dealing with so he can see i am not doing anything wrong, you need to look at my other post with regards to the audigy 2 li've dri've having the exact pcb model number revisions etc, as the audigy2 zs platinum li've dri've, and that the combination of the audigy 2 li've dri've not being a connection that creative will offer support for, which is another thing i will be asking creative when i phone tech support up tomorrow, as i want to speak to someone higher up about this.
And you say you are testing this at home and cannot replicate this issue.
Can i ask what speakers you are using.
What soundcard are you using, are you using the aud 2zs plat version not the plat pro version.
Also what make of dvd player are you using to play dvds on, what spdif option your using in external dvd player ?
And what are the model numbers on your audigy 2 zs platinum li've dri've motherboard ?
Also what driver version are you using for the zs plat card ?
As i have used the supplied disc version, and updated to latest versions makes no difference.

XiFi and Audigy Take Over Input and Output from Bluetooth Head

I am having trouble with my bluetooth headset when making phone calls in any VoIP application (Skype, Yahoo!). I usually use the headset as the input and output for my VoIP bits so I can move away from my desk, etc... First, it worked under XP with my Audigy no problem. I bought a XiFi and installed the latest drivers and it began stealing my audio. Oddly, it does not do it until the call connection is made (so I hear the ringing in the BT headset and once the call is answered the system reverts to the mic, a Logitech USB, and main speakers, directly plugged to the soundcard).
I decided to put my audigy back in, because I was planning on upgrading to Vista and thought the XiFi may be bad. I did a fresh Vista install with the Audigy and everything worked (i.e. audio for phone calls stayed in my BT headset). I then upgraded from the Microsoft drivers to Creative?s Vista drivers and the problem then happened with the Audigy as well.
This leads me to believe that some sort of regression happened in the latest drivers. Everything else works great, games, movies, etc? but this is a show stopper because I want to use my bluetooth headset. I tried to downgrade to the Microsoft drivers but the card would no longer work. I have tried a driver install only, then added the software, removed that and did a full install. This is with BETA drivers on Vista, but the problem existed in XP as well which were not BETA drivers AFAIK. I have updated to the latest Bluetooth drivers as well with no luck.
I have confirmed this on two of my PCs and a friend of mine is having the same problem (XP, XiFi) so he went and bought a Skype phone which works correctly.
Thanks in advance

thanks for reply..

Sb live 24 with logitech z5300e no 5.1 please h

I Have sb li've 24 bit card (new) and Logitech z5300e (new) an am getting only front right and left speakers on the test. The sub switch is set to 5. the sb is set to 5. and when I play music or a dvd there is sound coming out of the rears but it does not sound like 5. surround in the movie (the patriot). I have a jumper wire coming out of the dvd and connecting to the sound card (removed it and still no center or rear speakers on the test.)Why do I not get sound out of the center and rears on the test? Thanks

also i would like to add that earlier when i clicked the test button in creative surr mix, center speaker responded normally(the women voice said center), which is in itself very odd (cause otherwise there was no sound from it). hope that helps a littl

875 Neo and Audigy 2 annoyance.

I am running 875 Neo and Audigy 2 on Win XP Pro SP1. The Audigy 2 is running on the latest XP driver from Creative. DirectX is 9.0B. Everything works just fine, no crashes or anything. I do have a minor annoyance with the Audigy 2. On rare occasion, I have a thumping sound from my subwoofer, the kind of sound when the soundcard is initializing itself when Win XP Pro is loading. The subwoofer is fine as I have tested it without being connected to the PC. At first, I thought that it was due to the Audigy 2 sharing IRQ with the Intel RAID controller. I have shifted the Audigy 2 so that it only uses an IRQ without sharing but the same annoyance persists.
Does anyone have the same problem and how to overcome it?

It is a known issue and un-conventional remedy.
It is Hardware failure. I would get the iPhone changed for a good one.

Hello
Page 91 of the English PDF User's Guide we may read:
+• To paste a copy of a formula in a different cell and use the same cell references in both+
+formulas, place a dollar sign ($) in front of column and row identifiers (=$A$1). This+

+an absolute cell reference the formula in E1 would be =B1.+
This is a very old scheme and the User's guide is not complete
We may use two other kind of cells reference:

the column would be fixed but the row num would adjust
=A$1
the row num would be fixed but the column would adjust

Unable to bluetooth pair logitech boombox and macbook pro

I have a logitech boombox and am trying to pair it to a MacBook Pro using bluetooth. Normally, I turn on the boombox and then press the bluetooth button and hold it down until the blue light flashes quickly. This, apparently, puts it in pairing mode. I see the device in the bluetooth preference pane. When I click the pair button, it seems to try and then it says "Connecting..." and then after about 15 seconds the error comes up "Couldn't connect to device". Any ideas? This used to work in the past but does not work now. I'm running Mac OS X Yosemite.

Gigaworks and audigy 2 zs platinum lip sync is

Can smeone form creative please help me with this issue.
I have loads of external dvd players, a pacific, an xbox, 4 yamadas, accoustic solutions, scanvision, etc etc.
This is what is happenning, i am connecting the pacific dvd players optical out (or coaxial) It makes no difference as they both do it.
Press play to watch dvd, and start watching movie, the longer the movie plays and even in the first 5 minutes of playback the lip sync starts to go out, this is with the use installed decoder checked on soundcard and doly digital decode slected instead of default, spdif byass.
If i stop or pause the dvd and press play the lip sysnc comes back in, then it gradually goes out again.
Now it is not the dvd player. as it does this with the xbox as well, and the yamada, etc etc, this is on a clean installation of win xp pro, the only things that are in are chipset drivers, gfx card driver and the full installation of the audigy 2 zs platinum driver disc.
I connect the optical out or the coaxial ut to the optical in on aud 2 zs plat li've bay, and the same with the coaxial in on aud 2 zs plat li've bay, but only one at a time.
Can someone tell me why this is doing this, i am 98% certain i do not get this from using aux 2 in.
Also it always says unknown or invalid spdif signal in the decoder options.
Also it fails to initialize the dolby digital decoding when inserting the coaxial cable sometimes or rather 8 times out of ten, i have to either restart dvd player, or restart computer to get sound back.
I am not happy with either the s750 speakers whilst playing dvds or the audigy 2 zs card, the speakers are not very loud whilst playing most dvds and teh lip sync is not acceptable, i have used a dtt2200 and sb li've 5. witht the same dvd players and i never had this issue, granted this was on another computer, so i wil be try the s750 with the new computers onboard 7. sound chip to see if i get same issues, then i will be moving the sound card into another pci slot but i should not have to do this, as creative should have already tried this card in all available pci slots in all manufacturers motherboards to test the compatibility, if this issue remains can someone at creative tell me if they will give me a refund for the hardware of gigaworks s750 and audigy 2 zs platinum as www.dabs.co.uk will not give me a refund for these the speakers have only been in use for at most 2 weeks but are 3 weeks old and aud 2 card is about 0 weeks old but have only just been tested on my new computer as of at most 4 days as thats went i got all the other hardware to build up computer and i am most unhappy that dabs tell me they only do a refund or replacement upto 28 days, so creative it looks like the refunding of my money will fall to your company, but then after all it is your hardware, so you maybe can force dabs into giving me a refund , as after all it is your hardware and you will be able to reimburse dabs .

I tried it into all available pci slots on a fresh clean install of windows xp even the exclusi've pci slot was used, and even ehen it was in the other pci slots, it was not sharing an irq with anything anyways, it still does it whilst decodint the Dolby Digital Stream.
Have tried the driver updates for the card and it still does it.
I have the audigy 2 zs platinum witht the li've dri've I/O .
I have taken this card out and put my soundblaster 5. platinum card in, and the li've dri've IR that came with that card, and using the optical in or the coaxial in the same way as the Audigy 2 zs plat li've dri've ,and it decodes the 5. with perfect lip sync, however this is not true dolby digital decdong on the sb 5. card as you have to use the CMSS feature anyways on this card, so even though the ac-3 decode is ticked, it aint true Dolby Digital Decoding anyways.
So i took that card out, and put in my older audigy Platinum 5. card, and teh li've dri've that came with that card, and formatted windows, etc, then after xp went back in installed the audigy drivers etc, then connected the coaxial cable from external dvd player and This also plays the 5. with perfect lip sync, but again however this is not true dolby digital decoding on the audgy card, even tehough the option is selected ac-3 spdif decode in audio hq, You still have to use the CMSS feature to get kind of 5..
I know this to be true as when the 7. Audigy 2 zs plat card is in, when you play dvd from external dvd and use the optical or the coaxial to the fron of the li've dri've that came with audigy 2 zs plat, you get the Dolby Digital Logo appearring on the monitor screen to tell you that it is decoding etc, and teh Quality is very good and you can hear that it is a Dolby Digital 5. stream, APART FROM THE FACT THAT THE AUDIO GOES OUT OF SYNC WITH THE PICTURE.
So I know it has to be down to the actual hardware of the audigy 2 zs plat soundcard or the hardware in the Li've dri've that came with the audigy 2 zs plat soundcard. Its a shame that a lot more people that have bought this pruduct ie the audigy 2 zs platinum version, would not test there li've dri've soundcards dolby digital decoding using an external dvd player, so as we could get a better idea of the problem, AS there are only a couple of other users on this forum that have this harware and they have the same problem, so is it because these cards are faulty, or is it inherint in the hardware that cannot be fixed, cos it aint in the software, but how can we find out when no one seems to be able to tell for sure that a driver update will fix it.
Also Does the Audigy 2 zs platinum Pro suffer from this same lip sync issue whilst using the external dvd players optical out to the optical in to decode dolby digital 5. streams.
Saying as i spent over ?400 on the s750 gigaworks speakers and the Audigy 2 zs platinum soundcard, and that they are only 3-4 months old, and have just been installed into my computer (ie just opened within the last 2 weeks) i am really shocked to learn that nothing can be done and i have wasted a lot of money to get something that cannot do what it is advertised to do, And www.dabs .co.uk are reluctant to refund me my money on the basis that they only do refunds upto 28 days, so in my situation although i purchased the goods 3-4 months ago, i have only just got round to teseting the goods, as i needed the other bits to build computer up , like the case mnotherboard etc etc.
Come on creative, whats the score with this hardware.

What is difference between Audigy 2 LS and Audigy 2

As topic say what is difference between Audigy 2 LS and Audigy 2 ZS?
I sow Audigy 2 LS in my local store but cant find info on creative.com about it.

Z_unit,
The Audigy 2 ZS is our current top of the line audio card. It supports DTS decoding and is capable of 7. output. I am not aware of an Audigy 2 LS, however we have an Audigy LS which is a 5. capable sound card that is based on our original Audigy's features. Was the card that you were looking at in a retail box or was it in a brown box?

I can't undertsand what is going on since the closing has never occurred before.
I have not written down the incident #s.

The offer from EE was presumably to fix the phone , which they are entitled to do, you turned it down.
You can either go back to them and take up their offer to repair or you can try the Nokia warranty which will involve you contacting Nokia direct either by taking it to an authorised/approved Nokia care centre or submitting an online claim under the warranty to Nokia and following whatever instructions they issue for sending the phone to them.
You have not so far contacted Nokia as you have dealt only with EE.
I'm surprised the EE assistant told you the phone was being sent to Nokia rather than their inhouse technicians although I think that was simply a mistake on the assistant's part.
How did you get a PAYG phone from EE? I thought EE were offering contracts only.
So far as time scales EE don't post phones backwards and forwards on an individual basis. The shops use courier services and the frequency of deliveries and collections will depend on the number of shops in a town and the level of goods going back and forth.
