MP3+ Monitoring Input Prob

Hi, I am using a Soundblaster MP3+ USB card. ModelSB0270 with a laptop computer on XP. Using Creative Media Source should I be able to listen to sources whilst recording them?I have had the unit for a year or two. I don't think I could monitor what was being reorded?then yesterday after some problems and reinstalling software etc. it appeared that I could monitor what was going in off an external source (in this instance via SPDIF) using the headphone socket. I had the Digital/Digital Analogue switch in the Digital Analogue position. Should I be able to listen to what is being recorded? I think yes but do not know what the problem is. The unit plays back audio OK. I do currently have the resident sound card on the computer enabled. Any help appreciated?David

Can someone help me? (@_@)
I want to say that it's not a good commercial solution...no internet support for old models ("old"... year!!)
A factory of digital products needs internet support and file for everything to be a good logo...especially when products are broke without a reason (like mine).
Reading this forum i can see there are many problems in Creative mp3players :-/
Well...i don't know if my problem is from hardware and software. With hardware problem i can trash the player, so i need to know it. This is the reason because i want to format the player...so i can say "it's a hardware problem" or "it's a software problem"...

  • Monitor input error

    Moved recently and Gateway 3250S, reconnected monitor input error showed up on monitor. Computer doctor did virtual diagnostic and said it was the graphics card. Plus fan wasn't working. Sent specs to purchase return hp Pavilion 6000 pro.MXLO180WRK. Bought & set up the desktop yesterday 7/9/15 with appropriate chords. Turned monitor first, then cpu. Received same error message: Monitor input error. Monitor going to sleep. As per where I bought computer switched out chords and monitors. Still same error.  Where purchased hp suggested I bring everything in and they'll do a diagnostic. That involves renting a car & finding the time.

    The standard Blue & White G3 has a 15-pin 3-row connector that connects to most third-party monitors. So cable adapters should not be the issue here.
    There are two places that hold onto the screen resolution. The first is the PRAM, backed up by the PRAM backup/clock battery. If you have had a power failure or pulled the main power plug, and are now having this trouble, that battery is the prime suspect. I suggest you open the side door on the Mac, find the tiny button nearest the battery, and press and hold it for a quarter minute. then allow at least 5 seconds to pass before you attempt to power up. If the symptoms change, consider replacing the battery.
    The other place the display resolution is stored is in a Preference file. To accommodate an environment with multiple users on multiple computers, the display setting used after you log in is stored in:
    Hard Drive / Users / your_id / Library / Preferences / By Host / com.apple.preference.displays.yourHWAddress.plist
    If you can boot to a different software source such as a System CD, you can both bypass the bad value stored in that preference file and gain access to that preference file to move it to another location (which will inactivate it).

  • MP3 Car Input not working with Iphone

    When I plug my Iphone into my car's mp3 Aux input using my current mini plug connector (which works fine with my Ipod)) the music continues to play out of the iphone and not through my cars' stereo. The car is set correctly as the ipod works fine. Am I doing something worong?? Does the iphome not work in that situation? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

    because of the iphone's recessed headphone jack, it's likely your cable is not fully inserting into the jack. don't try to force it in there. people have done things from shaving down the plastic on a jack to trying to shop for adapters that fit.

  • Need help with x-fi / adobe audition monitoring / input issue

    Hi all - I've been desperately trying to fix this issue for a long time now. This is the first computer problem that has really got me stumped since, well, since forever. I've searched all over and seen a few tidbits about this issue but I couldn't find anything that could help me actually solve my problem.
    The issue is that when I record in audition through the x-fi, as I record a second separate track, whatever I'm monitoring from any other tracks gets recorded onto the second track along with the new recording.
    I've found threads saying it's an issue with the mixer, however I'm trying to figure out the audio creation mode in the console launcher and I am absolutely unable to figure out how to be able to monitor track 1 while not having it get recorded to track two. I went through basically each strip and muted/unmuted to see what would happen and nothing ever worked. I also know that it indeed is recording the monitor, as overlaid (not printed) effects are copied to the new track.
    I'm using vista, with the following drivers for the x-fi and asio4all.
    driver:
    5.12.6.1201
    11/2/2006
    asio4all v 2.7
    Sound Blaster® X-Fi™ XtremeMusic (D) Sound Card
    What do I do?
    THANKS

    This may not help, because I've not used ASIO personally, and I'm not as sure of the SBX-Fi's internals, but CL has tended to design cards which have recording taps at each input and at the output of the card. Thus the hardware has supported (dry) recording of individual sources, unmixed, or the mixed output of the card. The Surround Mixer only provides for recording one source, and gives a menu of each source, plus a "What You Hear" source which is actually the (wet) mixed output. You probably only need to figure out how to set things to record a specific source while auditioning the mixed output, and there's probably a way to do that.

  • GUI for monitoring ACE probes

    Hello,
    Can Cisco LMS monitor and report on ACE module probes.
    Thanks.

    yes, as imported MIBs.
    ACE appliance 3.x currently supports more SNMP OIDs for the probes than does the ACE module 2.x, but will ACE module 2.3 due by Q4CY09, they will both have same capabilities for probes monitoring.

  • 10.7.3 external monitor "input not supported"

    I have an external monitor connected with the Aplle VGA adaptor to my MBP.
    It has been working fine for the last year.
    Today I installed 10.7.3
    And now I get the message "Input Not Supported" on the external display.
    Not impressed.
    Any ideas or do I have to roll back this update.
    Cheers.

    OK now it gets silly.
    I have also had a problem, since I instaled Lion, that when I open my MBP the screen is black and no amount of encouragement will bring it to life.
    So, I have to switch on my external monitor.  My deskptop thern appears on the externam monitor, so I select "Detect Displays" from the menu bar and, kazam, my MBP screen comes to life and the desktop moves there.
    It only remains for me to switch off the external monitor and wait for Apple to provide a fix.
    Now, remember my current problem, in  that the external monitor wil not work and shows "input not supported".
    So today I opened my MBP and sadness, the screen is BLACK.  So I switched on my external monitor and WAHEY! it worked and the desktop appeared on the external monitor. 
    Excited at the prospect that my problem had somehow magilcally fixed itself overnight, I selected "Detect Displays" and my MBP screen duly appeared and the desktop meved there.
    The external monitor then stopped working and showed the message "Input Not Supported"
    I also have a related VNC problem that is still outstanding, so I think it is fair to say that there are several issues around external monitors with Lion.

  • Rage 128 Pro and HP Monitor= 'Input Not Supported'. Need help.

    I recently purchased this monitor for my Mac G4 (Digital audio model with Rage 128 Pro);
    http://www.macmall.com/macmall/shop/detail.asp?dpno=7246171&Redir=1&description= HP-Smart%20Buy%20w19%2019-inch%20LCD%20Widescreen%20Flat%20Panel%20Monitor-Monit ors
    When I power up the Mac I can see the apple logo as OSX starts to boot but soon thereafter I get a black screen with a little floating window that says, 'Input Not Supported'.
    What does this mean in technical terms and do I need to return the monitor?
    Thanks.

    Hi-
    The monitor is telling you that the input being received is not supported. This is because the rage 128 is too weak a graphics card to drive the HP Monitor ( or any LCD over 17" for that matter).
    You will need a better graphics card to run the display.
    As for which graphics card, basically, most any 4x AGP Mac compatible card +other than+ the Rage 128 (or Pro) will work to drive the monitor.

  • X-Fi Elite Pro - Recording from the Phono Input Prob

    Kit:?
    Vista x64
    4GB Ram
    Q6600
    X38 Mobo
    X-Fi Elite Pro
    Audio is taken via?Digital Output (not the optical one) from the External box to a Sony Cinema Amp.
    Have installed using the Vista X-Fi CD and updated to the July 2008 drivers.
    Problem:
    Unable to record from the Phono input on the external breakout box, in fact only the Line-In on the actual card seems to work, but when recording via the Creative Entertainment Console the recording has what sounds like reverb applied to it. Recording via Vista's Sound Recorder produces a clean sound but is in WMA and very low quality.
    Other Obvious Problems:
    Have to manually select the Input port via Vista's Sounds Panel, by setting the required input as 'default device'.
    Headphone socket on the external box doesn't anything coming out of it.
    Question:?
    Has anyone sucessfully recorded via the Phono input on an Elite Pro under Vista x64, and if so how
    Thanks.
    Message Edited by 0idsjagf on 08-07-2008 2:56 PM

    Huhu, right-click onto the window where all devices like microphone or speaker output are listet (record, playback) (Controlpanel " sound") Then you have the option to enable "show deactivated devices" maybe then the phono input is available to your needs.

  • Live Monitor URL prob!!

    When I try and use "Live Monitor" it now says "The URL is Invalid"... i know I can update via "Live Update" ok, but what happened to the Monitor???? i like my taskbar utilities....  
    Thanks...    

    I had the same problem.  I think it was when I was using bios version 1.5.
    But if you  have the latest bios and live update it should work properly everytime as mine is currently working, I just checked.
    Also, if you uninstall and reinstall the version of live update that you have, it should work at least one time, then you can view last result as many times as you want.  Why it does this I don't know. The reason I mention this, is if you want to use the utility to GET the latest bios and live update.

  • Joe Meek Twin Q Pre-Amp and Elite Pro SPDIF/Digital input probs

    Hi. I'm wondering if anyone can help. I've just purchased a Joe Meek Twin Q Pre-Amp and I specifically bought it for a new Rode mic I've just got and it needed phantom power. I also paid a little extra for the digital 'outs', thinking I could take an optic or SPDIF out into the Elite Pro breakout box. The problem is, is that digital is not recognised at all - in Audio Codes it states it's an invalid signal. However, SPDIF is recognised saying it's a stereo signal at 48,000hz, but is only being 'heard' in my right channel.
    I have tried the line out into Line In 3, and there's no problem there. Joe Meek representative said it should be working as long as the bit match is the same in both units, which as far as I know is. Am I missing something here? I'm awaiting Creative to get back as it seems to me to be a breakout-box hardware problem, but I could be missing something?
    Does anyone have any experience and/or advice/info?
    Thanks in advance

    Well, since you're not getting response, let me see what I can do.
    I think you're saying the optical connection isn't working, but the coax (SPDIF) one is working, and then you're only getting the mic signal on one channel. The second part is easy to explain, but I never remember the solution suggestions. TOSLink/SPDIF, essentially, are stereo signals, and your preamp is simply putting its channel 1 signal on one side and its channel 2 signal on the other. If you had a second mic connected to the other connector, you'd have one mic on the left channel and the other on the right channel. Basically, you need to treat it as a mono signal and then either pan it into the stereo field, or just duplicate (convert) it to stereo. I'm sure there are ways, but someone else needs to join in with some experience. I'm not sure, but it seems to me if, say, you've put the mic in the channel 1 connector, you could take the channel 1 (analog) output and patch it into the channel 2 line input, and your digital outputs would probably get you the mic signal on both sides.
    On both devices, the TOSLink/SPDIF signals are, to the best of my understanding, basically the same thing in two forms. If one is working, than the other should be working too. That suggests to me either hardware brokenness in the preamp's optical out, or the Elite Pro's optical in. or a problem with the optical cable. CL's optical outs can be checked to see if they are putting out red light: if they aren't, there's a problem. That probably applies to the preamp, in this case. You can simply connect the Elite Pro's optical output to its optical input and record something from the digital input device. If that works, the cable and the digital input are probably OK, and it most likely the preamp's digital output is broken (although it could be a strange compatibility issue). If it fails, then it's most likely either a bad cable, or the Elite Pro's optical input is broken. Trying another cable, or some other piece of gear you have that outputs optical, ought to sort out which it is.

  • Mediasource 5.10.38 mp3 track skipping prob

    Hi !
    I'm having a problem with Mediasource 5 since I upgraded to it.
    I was listening to mp3s of a stand up show by Henry Rollins, and Mediasource kept skipping to the next track even though there was still a minute or so of the track left to play.
    When I skip back to the track and drag the cursor, it plays the track fine, but the problem starts again with the next track...
    It didn't do that on every track, it only did it on tracks that are 7 minutes long minimum.
    I checked if everything was off (svm, crossfade...) and everything was.
    I ripped those mp3s from my CD with Mediasource, so I really have no clue what's going on.
    Any clue ?

    Are you playing the track from MediaSource's PC Music Library or from MediaSource's My Computer?

  • Usb input prob

    hi i had just got my creative zen xtra 40gb player back from being fixed and whille uploading songs dropped it and the usb in put has been pushed inside the mp3 player can any one help me with that? would it be alright to unscrew the player and place the usb part back into place so i can upload more songs? i have no warranty so will cost me to get repaired i am looking for a cost free solution without damaging the player any help is appreciated cheers, mike

    If the USB plug has been pushed inside it will have partly or completely broken away from the PCB. You need to get it repaired by someone who has expertise in surface mount soldering.
