MSI 8606 Version 1 card - spdif output needed

Hi
I have a MSI 8606 version 1.0 Tv Tuner card which does not have a line out pin.
The internal audio cable is connected to Aux of the motherboard.
The PC is MSI Mega PC (Acer Cubic PC bought from Acer India)
I play all other applications like media player etc and an using a Amplifierto play
5.1 Dolby stero. I have connectd a fibre optic SPDIF cable from
spdif out to the Amplifier spdif in. I can hear the 5.1 sound if i play DVD etc.
Now when I watch TV alone I need to switch the Amplifier to analog mode and
have connected the line out of PC to the Analog In of the amplifier.
Now how can I get the TV tuner's audio output also to be available
through the spdif out of the PC (tough I know that i can't 5.1
all I need is the sound to player through front speakers)
In thoery will this work irrespective of what application i use to
watch TV?
Thanks for your reply on this.

Lotsa luck!
You are asking for on-the-fly analog to digital conversion, which you (and most others) do not have. (It was an optional feature of the nForce2 chipset, aka "Soundstorm".)
If you are fanatic, try to find a soundcard with the feature that is capable of being stuffed into your box. (More lotsa luck.)
Or, if you are both fanatic and adept in electronics, try here.

Thanks, but are these are silent?
Why do they cost over 10 x what seems available for PC?
Is it not possible to flash the cards for mac?
Something similar to a ASUS Geforce 8400GS PCI-E 2.0 512 MB DDR2 Graphics Card EN8400GS Silent/P/512M?

SPDIF output E-MU 0404

Does not work SPDIF audio output on audio card E-MU 0404. Only the microphone icon. Can I do SPDIF output on this audio card?

Henduck,
Does your SPDIF input have a send to an ASIO IN #/# or WAV L/R in its stack? It will have to have this for the sound to get to your applications. If you send to ASIO you will need to use ASIO drivers in your apps, if you send to WAV you will use a WDM driver.
If you need any further support or direct support you can always contact EMU support directly. Here is their support contact page: http://www.emu.com/support/custsup.asp

Soundblaster LIve! 24bit card, weak output to existing speakers with lots of hi

Moved a working Card and speaker pair from an older Dell to an HP Pavilion xt963 and installed the drivers and plugged the speakers in. Using windows Media Player, all I get is hiss and very faint music out the speakers
Windows version XT with SP2. Tried driver from CD and downloads from m Creative.
I have performed all the standard diagnostics and checks I have been told to do in the support software. NADA, zilch, bupkes!

Msi kt4v and tv-cards, a no-go ?

Hello ,
I just wanted to share my experience with this board and tv-cards . It seems not one tv card seems to work as it should on this board !??!
This is the conclusion i must come too after having tested several cards off different manufacturers.
radio on these cards does work without a flaw , but whenever tv function is used , screen output is garbled, just impossible to watch.
I wonder where the problem lies :
having had those cards in an kt7a (kt133a chipset) from abit without a problem and also on an msi intel bx mobo without probs,
i can only conclude its the freaking mobo witch does something wrong, might it be the VIA kt400 ???
it is not os related since all pc have same os = Win XP.
APIC doesnt make a difference and it shouldn't as apic is a part of pci 2.1 standard (so is acpi). after trying every possible permutation of pci card / slot configuration nothing helps.
Can someone research this further ?
whenever cpu usage goes up to full i even had some more garbled pics where something was vissible : this is very strange, de cpu seems to send out high frequencies that mess up the system somewhere.
sys specs :
MSI KT4V version 1
bios 1.8
XP 2500+
512Meg 333 DDR 1 stick
enermax 460Watt PSU (430 true watts)
GeForce 3 Ti200 hercules
SB audigy
RTL 8139 nic (el cheapo)
2 * seagate barracuda IV 40 gig
cdrw plextor
dvd pioneer
tested cards : hauppauge wintv series and aver tvphone series
greetings

hi maesus,
all those options have already been tried and nothing really does any affect accept when i ennabled cpu halt detection: it got even worse, i never used that option to start with
changing pci latency did nothing and i keep it at lowest possible therefore.
delay transaction enabled did nothing and i keep it dissabled since i have no problem with the audigy installed, the sound is perfect. also tried combinations of these settings.
i also can't seem to get 256Meg AGP aperture size to be recognized when set in bios to 256 all possible programs return a size of 128 ?
i also tried diferent winxp kernels : acpi uniproccesor (with apic) , advanced configuratio..... kernel, standard pc kernel. no differences whatsoever. everything works as it should witch is in fact great , except the darned tv-cards, that is to say, their picture is messed up.
i wish i could try it on an nforce2 board
greetings

What kind of graphic card do I need for second screen?

I have a Mac Pro with GTX 680 card that outputs to a 27" Cinema Display and 42" TV. The TV screen is a few frames of, so I understand I need a separate videocard for the TV so I can adjust this with frame offset in FCP.
What kind of card is suitable for this? There is 30m distance from Mac to TV, is this too long for HDMI cable?

I don't know. My experience with Aja IO card is that's it's more complicated configuring it (at least with fcp7). I have a friend with a macpro and every time we need to use it, it requires playing around with control panel and the view settings within fcp. Maybe operator error. The BlackMagic just usually works although I found with Avid Media Composer 7, if you tried to load material that didn't match the project settings, you could not get the project to every play out through the intensity. You'd have to create a new project and open your existing bins in the new project. Took me a while to figure out what was going on.
Aja's support is supposedly much better, but I did get answers via email from blackmagic with the avid issue. Took a few days, but they did come thru.

How can I record what the sound card is outputting?

I have an app. that I need to be able to capture what the
sound card is outputting. That is I want to record anything that plays
from the sound card. I don't want to
have to route the speaker out to the mic in. Is there a way to
"capture" the sound as it is being played?
Thanks
Bob

As I understand you would like to record the sound (wave, midi, others...) generated by a third party application without a cable loop between soundcard output and any soundcard input (mic, line, aux).
Have you already tried to set the record input on the recording control panel of Windows to stereo mix and to use any standard labview vi (eg: snd read waveform) for recording?

All of a sudden I can't open my iPhoto library. I get a message that says "To open your library with this version of iPhoto, it first needs to be prepared. It takes me to this page. Bought MacBook Pro 11/2012. Don't have a clue as to version of IPhoto

Is this library one that you've been using since you bought the MBP? If so and you're running iPhoto 9 then apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with
Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

SPDIF output is disabled when connecting a HDMI device

Hello, hope someone can help.
I've got a Toshiba SAT U500 with Realtek audio driver. I want to send the video to the TV (via HDMI) and still send audio via SPDIF to the digital receiver. By some reason it is automatically enabling HDMI audio when I connect the TV, and on the SPDIF output (icon on Windows 7 -> Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Sound) a telephone sign appears.
What does that telephone sign mean? How to make the system not to disable SPDIF output when connecting a HDMI device?
Thanx in advance!!!

Howdy Gdad_Edw,

Optical SPDIF output stopped working- why?

I recently installed a larger HD and more RAM in my 1.63MHz Mini. After getting buttoned back up I noticed the optical SPDIF output stopped working (as in NO laser visible). Is there any possibility that this could be related to the OS (10.5.8)? Seems unlikely since it was fine before installation.
I really need this as it is my only option for interfacing with my playback system.
Rich

Hi Rich,
Long shot, but...
Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there, some things will change it for their own use, then not set it back.
Have you done a PRAM reset, CMD+Option+p+r...

Howto enable spdif output through the combo ja

I have an Audigy model #sb0090
I am running Vista Home Premium
I am connecting this computer to my Dolby 5. receiver.
Creative Vista drivers are installed and reporting no errors.
On the back of the Audigy card there is a digital output jack labeled: "digital out or 3"
I purchased the Digital IO Module from:
http://us.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=&subcategory=6&product=780
When I plug it in, I don't get audio from either the coax or the optical outputs. I have enabled spdif output in the OS. I also have a daughter board model# ct4660 (from an older sound blaster li've) that I can connect to the audigy via a ribbon cable. The ct4660 also has a coax output. When I use this, the Dolby Digital output is sent to the receiver and everything works. The problem is, I don't have room in the case for the ct4660 which takes up an extra pci slot. How do I tell the card to send digital out to the "digital out or 3" output on the Audigy?
Thanks for the help...

I went out and purchased a new Audigy SE. Using the IO module, I now am able to get Dolby Digital sound from digital sources such as DVDs and ATSC television. I do not get any other sound such as Windows sounds and music. In the Audigy speaker properties on Vista, the "Digital Output Only" checkbox is not checked. How do I get all sound to output via the spdif output?

Audigy 2 SPDIF output - again, asking for any help.

Some time ago I asked question about my Audigy 2:
[size="">Hi, I am using Audigy 2 soundcard connected to Altec Lansing ADA885 speakers. These speakers have built-in Dolby Digital Decoder, and of course SPDIF input for this. Additionally, they have inputs for analog front and rear speakers signal. They can be switched to different operation modes : Dolby Digital decoding, Dolby ProLogic decoding, stereo, and quad modes. I have connected them to my Audigy 2 using analog connections, and also digital output. The problem is, that they process both kind of inputs (analog and digital) all the time in most modes simultaneously. For example, when I set them to "quad" mode (for gaming) they process analog signal that Audigy deli'vers them, but also they attempt to decode the signal from digital input. This produces some kind of phase distortions (basses dissappear and the sound becomes slightly muffled). Possible solutions could be : - disable digital decoding in speakers when using analog output from Audigy - this can't be done, these speakers' decoder is not configurable, - disconnect digital cable when using analog output from Audigy - obvious solution, however not very comfortable - disable "ON-DEMAND" spdif output on Audigy card and enable it when necessary. This would be most satisfying option for me. But.... is it possible at all ? Just something similar to the "Digital output only" setting in soundcard panel, but in my case i'd like to have an option of "Analog outputs only". Thanks in advance for any help <img title="Smiley Happy" alt="" src="http://forums.creative.com/i/smilies/6x6_smiley-happy.gif"> Greetings, Martin
No-one answered me, unfortunately
Yesterday I moved to Vista Ultimate and newest set of Creative Drivers.
To my surprise, there is an option of SPDIF output volume and mute in system mixer. However, it also doesn't work.
Can anyone confirm, if I can mute digital output whenever I want ?
Best regards,
Martin

Glad to hear that I'm not the only one experiencing such pain with this card.
After 3 connectors, I have my SPDIF of my Audigy 2 ZS connected to my Recei'ver and passing sound. However, it is NOT passing the 5. AC3/DTS stream. Playing a movie through Media Center 2005, if Dolby Digital 5. is selected, I hear the movie, but the Recei'ver does not indicate it is in Dolby Digital (like when I play it through my standalone DVD Player). When selecting DTS in the Audio Options of the DVD Menu, I hear no sound at all.
I have a minijack to RCA Stereo connector with a Digial Coax cable going from the White connector to my Recei'ver Digital Coax Input.
I have set the Device Decoding Options for SPDIF Passthrough.
What am I missing? This is going on a week now to get something going that worked right out of the box with a $40 DVD Player. And the $40 DVD Player sounds better than this $00 sound card....because it passes the AC3 stream flawlessly.

Audigy 2 ZS spdif output prob

I've recently installed an Audigy 2 ZS into my new PC. I can get sound out through headphones - from CD and DVD. I've connected the spdif out jack to my surround sound decoder - this all worked fine on my old PC with a Turtle Beach Santa Cruz sound card. Now on the new PC with the Audigy, I can't get any sound out of the spdif connection. I've set PowerDVD to spdif output and the card setting to spdif passthru as per the instruction in this forum but still nothing.
What can I expect to get out of the spdif connection ? From what I've read, it's clear that I should be able to get Dolby Digital and that I can't get sound from games. What about CDs and mp3s etc . ?
Thanks in advance for help / info / suggestion ...

More details :
"Enable digital CD audio for this CD-ROM device" is checked</LI>
"Use SPDIF" is selected in PowerDVD</LI>
"SPDIF Passthru" is selected in Creative Audio Console</LI>
From what I've read on this forum, that ought to do the trick. I've got a stereo minijack to left-right RCA and have tried both sides. No signal that my pre-amp can recognise.
Help !?

Cannot get 5.1 sound using Audigy 2, SPDIF output, coaxial cable, Digital/DTS recei

I'm having trouble getting my receiver to play 5. sourround signals from my Audigy 2. The receiver has all the required decoding options (DTS, Dolby Digital, etc.), I have a coaxial digital connection from the Audigy to the receiver, I've selected "Digital Output only" and set the Audigy to bypass the ac3 decoder (SPDIF output). However, the receiver only ever detects the front left and right channels. I've tried lots of tweaking (speakers settings, decoder settings), but still cannot get a multi-speaker sound.
If I'm using the Audigy's built-in ProLogic system to simulate 5. output from standard stereo sources (wav, mp3, etc.), should this not result in a 5. signal being transmitted to the receiver over the coaxial digital cable? Still, no luck when I try this.
I've read that it's not possible for the Audigy to transmit 5. signals over the digital output -- it can only decode them and pipe them to the analog 6-speaker outputs. Is this true?
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
Patrick
