Low Audio on H61M-P23

I think this may be the last question on my install of the on H61M-P23. Everything else seems to be working, The port on the back of the motherboard is "line-out". Connecting the un-powered speakers I have to it produces some sound but is difficult, at best, to hear, even with the sound turned all the way up in the Windows 7 Audio control. The audio connector from the front panel on the case has a connector for AC97 and one for HD Audio. (Azalia) and that manual includes a warning that connecting improperly can result in damage, so I'd like to get it right. If I plug one of those to JAUD1, can I plug my speakers into the jack at the front, and which should I use?
Thanks,
Bill

Use the HD Audio connector.
You need powered (amplified) speakers to get better sound amplification. Using the front output will produce pretty much the same level of sound output. At best these outputs will produce acceptable sound levels for a headset.

  • H61M-P23 B3 MB Displaying A2 Error

    I've had a H61M-P23 B3 MB for about a year with no problems.  Yesterday it started crashing and would boot to a blank screen with a non-blinking cursor in the upper left hand corner and the code "A2" in the lower right hand corner.  I was able to get it to re-boot successfully by turning off the  power supply by the rear mounted rocker switch and unplugging the power cord for a few minutes.  It would then boot normally.
    I can't be 100% sure, but I believe that when the computer would not boot correctly, the HD activity light was on all of the time.
    HD or PSU problem?
    Thanks.

    Did you try resetting Cmos? How to clear the CMOS
    Edit: A2 code= Onboard devices initialize and detect (USB/ SATA..) yes probably your HD is causing the trouble, check if its power and sata cable are correctly connected

  • Low audio levels on itunes purchased music video's

    Can anyone tell me how to boost the audio levels on purchased itunes music video's ?
    I have purchased a few videos lately from the itunes music store and occasionally I find the odd one which has very low audio levels. I assume that itunes has not monitored some video/audio files closely enough when importing them into the in tunes system itself and the audio levels have fallen a little low on certain tracks. Have a look at some of the Eurythmics songs - 'Angel', 'Missionary Man', or 'Best of You' by the Foo Fighters for example.I have boosted these tracks by 100% within the in itunes track options, but its still a very low level compared to some of the other tracks I have downloaded.
    I tried to import one of these video files to Mpeg Stream Clip to see if I could use the audio boost function within that program but it didn't like the video file ? I presume because it was an itunes purchased video, therefore a protected file.
    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this or what setting I should be using, doing with Mpeg Streamclip to fix this problame if this program can fix this issue ?

    yes i have exactly same problem. Was all working fine till I upgraded to iTunes v8.1.
    TV shows, everything works fine... its just music videos dont show the video, no matter which setting I choose?
    Help please!!!

  • Low audio volume in DVD SP

    I've been experiencing low audio volume with burned DVDs in DVD SP 4.
    The audio volume is fine in FCP, and also in the self-contained exported QT file.
    But once imported into DVD SP and burned to a DVD, the volume is almost cut in half on multiple projects. The DVD's are short (< 30 minutes) so the audio is left as an AIFF file rather than converting it to an .ac3 with Compressor.
    I don't see any way to control the volume in DVD SP.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,

    There's no way to control volume in DVDSP.
    I had the same problem, but I had an ac3 file through Compressor. And there was this feature in it called "dialog normalization" that I had to turn off (setting it at -31dB), and my levels were good.
    If you can't solve your problem with AIFF, maybe try ac3, and see if it suits you.

  • IDT High Definition Audio CODEC v. 6.10.6395.​0 Upon installati​on I have very low audio output

    IDT High Definition Audio CODEC v. 6.10.6395.0.  5/21/ 2012
    Upon installation I have very low audio output!   Screen Shot    Screen Shot 2
        I have tried:
    un-installing and reinstalling the drivers.
    Installed the original drivers via HP's website sp53222 for my particular model.  HP  Pavilion HPE  h8-1070t
    Any suggestions? would be greatly appreciated.  It would appear IDT who I also emailed and they never responded is responsible for a codec pack that is not fully functional with this motherboard.
    was wir lieben meistens nicht kriegen

    Did you access the Catalyst Control Center in programs and look at the latest updates for your graphics card and make sure you didn't download the audio drivers they self install and are checked automatically each time you attempt an update for the card.
    Did you right click on the speaker in the system tray and go into recodring devices make sure everything is setup propper there sometimes they too can change.
    I'm familiar with cakewalk but never used it on Win7 its been many years since I played around with that. If you are using the onboard audio card and it has worked before and not now if I were in your situtation I would attempt to reisntall the dirvers via device manager they do sometimes become corrupt especially if you picked up any malware that was removed by your antivirus software due to the drivers and malware both reside inwindows\system32.
    After the reisntall of the drivers if the issue is not resolved I would upgrade the audio card with a  PCIe x1 component such as:
    Creative Labs SB1040 PCI Express Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio Sound Card
     http://www.amazon.com/Creative-Labs-SB1040-Express​-Blaster/dp/B000W7PNZI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1357​...
    After I paid for a real soundcard with Recording: 24-bit/96kHz and Sound Output Mode - 7.1 and bypassed my onboard audiocard I never had any issues again. My onbaord worked too in the begining for certain things than stopped mysteryously and the reinstallation became ineffective after a while so I decided the money for the tower was invested mainly in the CPU i7 the RAM and HDD.
    *** Note if you did install the audio drivers for the graphics card you will have to change the onboard audio in the BIOS from automattic to enabled. Otherwise you will have no sound at all. So never take the audio drivers for the graphics card unless you need them for DVR recording or something. The PCIe audio cards are never effected by this however only the onboard audio. Another reason onboard is a cheap way to go and HP bundles it as cheap as it can my friend.
    Good Luck again!

  • Still low audio on DAC-100

    Hello,
    I am still having the problem of extremely low when importing any VHS video using the DAC-100, from my VCR, into Final Cut Pro. As I stated earlier, audio only comes in on one track in Final Cut, and it's very low at that. I cut the track that doesn't have any audio on it, then copy the track that does, but, that doesn't help much, & is too much add'l work.
    I used the suggestion here and selected the two audio tracks in the timeline after capture, and chose Modify/Make Stereo Pair. It didn’t work, as the result was that the audio meter read that sound was only coming from one side, whereas when I played it before making into a Stereo Pair, it looked like it was coming out of both, even though only one audio track had any sound waves on it. And it was still low audio.
    I checked all of my connections, they are all tight. I have a miniDV camera and can go from the camera to the VCR, but NOT the other way around. I have contacted the DAC-100 co. but apparently there is only one technician for the whole co. and he has not gotten back to me. I am at a loss, as I need to transfer several VHS tapes, and at the moment, have no way of doing that. Ok, thanks so much!
    Kristina

    "is the audio at a lower level compared to the original audio straight out of the VHS player?"
    Yes, the audio does come in much lower than compared to straight out of the VHS player.
    "Is the converter box is faulty, test by using another box?"
    I don't have another box...
    "Is there output level settings DIP switches somewhere you could change?"
    Hmm, I could try changing DIP switches, but was advised to keep on the factory settings. Besides, they've always been that way, and they USED to work...but, could perhaps try...
    "If the original audio level is at the same level feed the output from the VHS machine into a sound mixer and wind up the gain, then feed that into the converter."
    No sound mixer...only tv/vcr; dac-100; MAC...

  • Low audio when going from Xpress Pro to DVD SP

    When I output from Avid Xpress Pro to DVD SP I get low audio on the final DVD.
    I export my Xpress Pro sequences as QT References with the audio as an AIFF file. I was able to improve the audio a bit by going into APack and converting the AIFF to an AC3 file. Even after boosting all the audio in the sequence (back in Xpress Pro) 10DB it's still not great. Any ideas?

    Mix your audio as hot as you can in the Avid...if you are using the -27 Dialogue Normalization setting, you are going to get the levles cut considerably. Use -31 (IIRC) instead...

  • Low audio level in encoded ac3 file

    When I export from FCS 2 using Compressor, audio ac3 file has a low audio level. I was trying change settings in compressor but no result. Therefore I export audio from FCP as quick time movie - AIFF audio file. Then audio level is the same as in FCS. But file is so big. It takes so much space on my DVD when authoring with DVD Studio Pro. I make DVD - PAL. Anybody with the same problem?

    I'm glad you mentioned the preset, Silal. I kept meaning to bring that up, but forgot.
    Set Preprocessing to None. That will keep high level short duration sounds, like drums, etc., from overtaking your dialog, and crushing it.
    The way DIALNORM is intended to work, you set it to the average level of your dialog from your editing app. If you're working in FCP, then that might be something like -12. That setting will cause the player to attenuate the level so dialog is attenuated by 19dB (-31 minus -12 = 19dB of attenuation by the player).
    That, in turn, allows the ridiculously loud music and nat sounds in the film soundtrack to sound "more natural", as they blast your ear drums into bits. "More natural" means "much louder than dialog, just like they are in real life".
    Bah, humbug! Let me hear what the talent is saying. I don't care if I can hear every nuance of that rock ballad, I just want to be able to follow the story, the plot.
    Hey, I'm an old dude, you whippersnappers.
    But back to the point, by setting DIALNORM to -31, the player works out the math like this:
    -31 minus -31 = 0dB of attenuation
    So, your level should be exactly what it was before the compression/conversion. Why it isn't is a mystery, still.

  • QuickTime .avi Low Audio

    I have QuickTime Pro 7.0.2 with the DivX Fusion plugin. One of my .avi files has extremely low audio. I have the slider all the way up in QuickTime and my Mac's audio is also pegged. Is there any other way to boost the audio?
    Thanks in advance!

    Not all video files compressed in the old AVI container are playable on a Mac, but if VLC will play them then I am surprised that Perian doesn't work for you.
    You show as using Leopard 10.5.2 - you need to update to 10.5.8.
    Is there a freeware I can use to convert all my .avi to .mov (or a better formatt) for iMovie.
    Yes, mpegStreamclip: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/mpegstreamclip.html
    Is there a freeware I can use to make the movie other than iMovie that will except my avi direct rather than having to convert all the files first.
    Not that I know of.

  • Problems fixing low audio

    I encountered a problem in trying to fix low audio. The audio that was captured was too low, so I attempted to fix it by copying and pasting the same audio track in 4 times - so there are now 6 audio tracks with the same audio. This seemed to increase the overall audio level nicely while using FCE.
    However once the video was exported (Print to Video) to DVD, the audio level was very low again even though it sounded great in FCE. It's as if the additional audio tracks are not being picked for export at all. Is there any reason why the additional tracks are not being picked up?
    Thank you,
    Julie

    Hi Julie,
    I did this successfully several months ago. I hope my memory serves me right.
    There is a little icon on the bottom left of the screen (the tool tip will say "Toggle Clip Overlays" when you are hovered above the icon). I clicked on that and a line appeared in my audio clip. I moused over the line in my audio clip until my mouse changed to a double-sided arrow, then I clicked and dragged the line up. This increased the sound nicely. I hope this works as easily for you as it did for me.

  • Low Audio on Camera since ios 6

    Anyone else having this problem? I just noticed it after the upgrade, camera has LOW audio.
    Anyone else?
    Thanks,

    this worked for my Iphone 4
    Go to:
    Settings
    General
    Accesability
    Assistive touch - switch to on.
    using the assistive touch (the white circle that now appears on your screen), go to:
    Device
    Then tap the bell (mute) icon.
    This should fix the issue. To test it (without having to wait for someone to call you) write an SMS and see if the keyboard clicks are audible.
    I hope this solves your issue like it did mine. If it doesn't maybe try tapping that mute icon again and/or flicking the actual mute bottom on the left hand side of your iPhone.

  • Low audio on mic w/60D

    New at DSLR (but old on DV and film) and noted audio on my Canon EOS 60D isn't great. I got a corded lav mic and tried two different methods; first lav into 60D and then used digital recorder by itself. Obviously digital recorder was excellent but the lav mic plugged into 60D was very low.
    I tried shotgun mic and it worked reasonably ok on 60D.
    All new to me so any comments welcomed on low audio problem.

    Hello Jaymack,
    You probably need to adjust the sound recording level which will raise the audio recording level.  To do this, go into the Menu > Sound Recording function.  Switch Sound rec. to [Manual] and then press Set.  You would select Rec. level and look at the level meter while turning the <Quick Dial> to adjust the sound recording level.  You want the level adjusted so that the level meter sometimes lights up to the "12" (-12 dB) mark on the right for loudest sounds.

  • H61M-P23 and AHCI

    I have purchase H61M-P23 from Microcenter. According to the documentation, this board should have AHCI support. However, in BIOS (version 17), I don't see that option. All I see is IDE and DISABLE. I know other boards like H61M-E33 had same problem and MSI released a beta BIOS. Not sure if there is a beta BIOS for H61M-P23 also. Please help. Thanks.

    Quote from: HU16E on 16-April-11, 11:08:49
    Your welcome. Did you get it installed & AHCI is showing up ok now?
    No, it totally screwed up. I used the same Beta to update H61M-E33 which worked fine. I did not read the thread completely. The beta BIOS is NOT for H61M-P23. I did not read the thread and updated the BIOS!!!! Now after the BIOS upgrade, I don't get video. Looks like the motherboard is trying to use the integrated video, but H61M-P23 does not have a integrated video!!
    Any advice please?

  • Low audio output - Speakers advice

    Hi,
    I am a proud owner of Lenovo A600. The only drawback seems to be the low audio output. Though the sound quality is fabulous, I cant hear a lot of videos on the internet them from a reasonable distance.
    I m assuming that supplementing the audio with speakers is the solution. I have no idea of the type of speakers to buy. Researching on the internet makes me more and more bewildered of the choices, so I decided to ask in the lenovo forums as the people here might have a better idea.
    Here are my goals :
    A reasonably portable speaker system that increases the sound output so I can hear it from a distance, in a big room. I have a few dumb questions :
    1) Is it possible to connect speakers that supplement the speakers of Lenovo?
    2) Is it possible to connect a 2.0 system but still use the built-in bass?
    3) Is a 2.1 system the minimum needed to maintain the same clarity?
    4) Is it a bad idea to consider USB speakers like Logitech Z-5?
    Apparently, I have no idea about sound systems and this is my first exposure to these and I m thoroughly confused by a lot of terminology like bass, woofer, sub woofer, tweeter etc.. and dont really have the resources to cut thru the jargon. So guys, can anybody please help/advise?
    Thanks in advance.

    1. Most likey the audio out connection will sense the input of headphones/external speakers and it will turn off the internal speaker.  If the opposite was correct, using headphones to not disturb people around you would be useless.
    2.  Read above.
    3. Most decent external speakers will outperform any internal speakers.  Internals speakers are cheap and bought from the lowest bidder.  Right now you are using ta .1 system.  2 meaning the number of speakers and 1 meaning the subwoofer. 
    4.  I cant give you info about USB speakers, but it might be possible to use both the USB speakers and the internal speakers together.  USB speakers will also allow you to use 5.1, or even 7.1 speakers systems.  More speakers the better. 
    Just remember to get amplified speakers.  The more watts the speakers can handle, the louder they will be.  Logitech is one company that I know have good quality speakers.  I am sure there are more.   i hope this helps.  Goodluck.
