No Sound post-upgrade to Win7Pro

Completed wipe-out of hard drive & new install upgrade to Win 7 Pro from Win Vista. Everything good - but no system sounds, no music or video plays. Sys Administrator installed drivers (as described previously on this site) for Nvidia & Realtec - works fine (making me look stupid!).
At home: Able to test Nvidia with PC Doctor, sounds produced. Realtek Highdef Audio - however - fails to produce sound with PC Doctor test. This system has speakers imbedded in Monitor; all sounds worked correctly under old Win Vista system; Checked the plugs, all correctly plugged and connected.

Realtek High Definition Audio, current driver version 6.0.1.5910, 8-4-2009
I don't get why sounds function at the tech site - but not at home! I got speakers & a headphone to try troubleshooting out the issue, but my guess is it is driver(s) issue.
Any Advice & steps to Troubleshoot and resolve this issue?

Hi:
The only suggestion I can offer would be to:
1. Install the nvidia chipset driver for the motherboard in your model and reboot.
http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/30520/en-us
2. Install the latest Realtek HD audio driver from the link below.
Accept the agreement. DL and install the second driver on the list.

Different sound post-export

After tweaking the equalizer and gain on a project I export the song. Unfortunately, the song sounds like none of the settings have stuck when I play it in iTunes. The equalizer settings in iTunes are off. The auto-normalize feature has been turned on; if I turn it off the exported song is full of distortion.
What I have now in Garageband: Project, tweaked equalizer, increased gain and auto-normalize on.
Result: Sounds great.
What I want: Export the project and having it sound very similar to what it sounds like in garageband. Don't care about the filetype, uncompressed, mp3, w/e.
How should I go about this?
Thanks!

Well, In this case I had to export the clips for some stock footage sites were each of them do have different recommendations in which format they want the clips.
One site had the option for clips saved as .mov with codec PhotoJPEG for most compatibily on any platform, another like to have the clips not larger as 300 MB were I had to use another codec like H.264 to let the export file smaller than the limit.
The exported files had all in base the same settings:
The H.264 file was exported with compression H.264, quality 75, 25 fps, clipdimension 1920x1080 px
The PhotoJPEG with best quality in color and with the same clipdimension.
Til now, I ccan see the only difference is the kind of compression -> H.264 instead of PhotoJPEG, but with different saturated colors in final file. Why?

Sound, post issues

Hi, i noticed for the fast 4 or so days that my system has been giving problems booting, i would get these four or so fast beeps when i try to power on, and now that the pc does start, i'm getting some crackles coming thru the speakers when i move the mouse around the screen... any ideas what would cause these problems?

Thanks, i saw that solution b4 (the vinyl thing), and i got it, but was still having some problems... they seem to have cleared up, will keep posting on this msg if anything else strange happens...
about the ram, i know, i wud like to change it too, but where i come from, pc parts are so expensive it shud be illegal to sell them ... maybe in the near future, but trying to save some cash first...
thanks for all the help

All-In-one Desktop PC Windows 8 Sound not Working

System: HP Omni 27-1210xt Desktop PC Windows 8 64 System is 40 days old. Sound was working last night. Woke up this morning from "Sleep" mode, no sound. What I Did:made sure nothing was muted, tested with a few different applications, no sound.Device manager - device working properlyDevice Manager - updated driverDevice manager - rolled back driverHP Support - installed most recent audio support driver from HP.comHP Support - installed ORIGINAL Audio device driver from HP.comHp Support from another thread - UNINSTALLED the audio device driver, restarted, Windows 8 64 automatically reinstalled. still no sound posting on here for help. Thanks

fixed it. I got to looking on several other threads and discovered some programs gain "exclusive control" of your audio device when they are running, even when they are running in the background. I figured there might be something running in the background, found nothing but went into the speaker setting (clicked on the speaker in the taskbar in the bottom right of the desktop), then clicked on the speaker image which took me to the speaker/audio options, went to "Advanced" and unchecked the 2nd box "Give exclusive mode applications priority". Works like a charm. We will see when I restart/shut down.

Sound Blaster Audigy SE Driver Prob

I have a problem with Sound Blaster Audigy SE,
Im using newest from creative download site SBA_PCDRV_LB__04_006.exe drivers.
After I turn on a game like ut2004, fear combat, even dxdiag (sound test) or pause sound in music/movie player system stops reacting or process "System" uses 95-00% of my CPU.
After few tests I discovered with help of KrView (kernel view soft) that p7filt.sys uses such big ammount of cpu If in Speaker Settings, Bass Redirection and Subwoofer Gain (+5) is turned on. (5. speakers)
I installed a bit diffrent version of drivers (from cd and even later I tested SBSE7_XP_Jul2005 additional driver). But then Subwoofer Gain option isnt working at all
its written Subwoofer Gain (+0) and with sub gain +0 sound quality very poor like in AC97 audio.
Ive also checked friends sound card on my pc and also i've tested exactly same thing on other computer.
I have xp sp2 with updates, newest bios, directX, etc etc...

OK..first of all the Audigy SE lacks any form of hardware acceleration, so turning on features like bass boosting/sound post-processing etc. will take away a lot of CPU time. The file you mentioned just acts as a software real-time filter, although it should not go up to the point of bringing a 2.4 Ghz Pentium 4 to its knees.
The sound quality will be altered even with every "DSP" effect (quoted because there's no actual hardware DSP, it's just emulated in software) set to 0, as long as the "DSP is considered acti've.
That's because the sound output is first converted from the time domain to the frequency domain (in poor words, the continuous sound wave you hear is broken down in many different frequencies like in those 80s ghettoblasters spectrum analyzers) because it's easier to amplify bass/treble that way, and then converted back to time domain (in even poorer words, a continuous sound wave you can hear/record/playback).
It's obvious that doing that thing in real time has a CPU cost, and even more obvious that the procedure is lossy and the input will not be the same as the output even with no effect applied, as long as the this double conversion takes place.
If you really need bass boost, turn any sound processing on the card OFF, and use speakers which have it. Also, if the CPU usage is abnormally high, try updated or a specific older version of the drivers that has more reasonable CPU usage/doesn't have that bug.

MSI P67A-GD65 Not Posting, unsure of beep code meaning

Just swapped out my old K9A platinum for a P67A-GD65 and I can't seem to get it to post. I'm getting a beep code of five beeps (long ones maybe? google indicates "process error") but I'm not sure what that means. Pulled the video card, tried my two sticks of ram in slot 1 one at a time, disconnected every device but still getting the same code. Any ideas on what might be causing this?
Edit: Tried clearing the CMOS as well but no luck

It seems I'm not the only one having weird issues with this board. I have the exact same board, v1.8 BIOS and Gskill F3-17000CL9D-8GBXLD memory.
If I enable the XMP profile for this memory, this system will not post. It does not matter if I raise the DRAM voltage and I/O (memory controller) voltage to their acceptable limits, it does not matter if I manually enter in the timings of the memory specified on the box. XMP = no post.
So after disabling XMP I kept the memory at 1600mhz, which worked fine. I decided to try 1866mhz and a little more voltage. This seemed to work fine...for awhile. This morning my system would not post. I had to clear the CMOS (not use the jumper but literally remove the battery). Ever since then my system will BSOD after a few minutes on startup unless I manually enter in my memory timings (I tried two sticks from different vendors).
I know I don't have bad memory, and the fact is that this board will not post with vendor specified settings.
All I can suggest is to pull the CMOS battery and try one stick of memory.

I can no longer see my mp3 cover art in finder

Last week I updated OS to 10.8.2, then later that week I did a disk check and permissions verify and repair, after that none of the mp3 tap images show up in finder, I do allot sound post work, and it help to be able to see the cover art once an mp3 file has been tagged. I spent 1.5 hours at the apple store yesterday, we checked and the tag images were visable on another computers through shared folder, so we tried deleting plists, but it definitly system wide and not on a user lever setting. I also did a re-install, ( were I did notice the downloader is extremely slow, I have very fast internet 50mps and lets just say it was moving at dial up speed.)
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature - Can someone help me I'm on a Macbook Pro 2013 with CS6?

I get this error message when I try to use Camera Raw in Bridge - all my other adobe products work fine. "Camera Raw editing requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature" I have a 2013 Macbook Pro - I have also updated all the know adobe updates online.

Can't open CR2 or JPEG files with Photoshop CS5 on Mac

I recently switched an existing install of Photoshop CS5 to a new MacBook Pro that's running Yosemite (10.10.1).
Photoshop could open most images (e.g. PNG, TIFF, PSD) but it could not—and still cannot—open any JPEG images. These same JPEGs open fine on Preview. I started this thread about the issue a few months ago:
Strange "out of memory" errors all of the sudden
I recently tried to open CR2 files from my (old but trusty) Canon EOS 1D Mark II and Photoshop says that it doesn't recognize the file type.
I tried to install version 7.1 of Adobe Camera Raw but each time I try to install it the Adobe installer displays a cryptic "Update Failed. This patch is not applicable for you." error message.
I don't know what else to try. I'd reinstall Photoshop CS5 but I don't know how to do this since it didn't come with any CDs and I can't find any Adobe resource online to reinstall Photoshop.
Help!

Can choose 5.1 in Audition CS6 for monitoring, but not in Premiere Pro CS6

System: Z820, Win 7 Ultimate x64
Audio: Creative SoundBlaster Recon3D PCIe, Altec Lansing 5.1 speaker system
SW: Master Collection CS6
I've been using Premiere Pro CS6 for a while now, but only for stereo video projects. I recently started working on a short film and needed 5.1 Surround Sound as well. I created a 5.1 surround track in Au, and have been able to monitor the sound and surround panning effects in Au during development. Here are the Audio and Channel Mapping settings I used to get my 5.1 to work so I could monitor it:
As can be seen, I've chosen the default MME Device Class here, and all seems well. I have 6 channels identified and mapped to the right corners. I've also confirmed my Master Track in Au is 5.1 Surround. I exported a 5.1 WAV and imported it into Pr, into a 5.1 surround session, confirming that both the track where the WAV file landed and the Master are both 6 channels (and although the order is displayed differently, the content correctly mapped from Au into Pr).
Now, my fun began. When I monitor the audio in Pr, I hear only Stereo. So, I check my channel mapping in Pr, as shown below:
As can be seen here as well, I've chosen the 'default' Premiere Pro WDM Sound. I've learned that WDM is a newer version of MME and encapsulates all the functionality of MME. I'm not sure why Au uses MME and Pr uses WDM. However, as shown, with WDM chosen, I only have 2 channels in the mapping dialog to work with, not the 6 I have (and had in Au). Nothing I can do will produce those other four channels.
As seen in the drop down captured in the above screen grab, I also have ASIO4ALL installed, but that too only shows 2 channels in both Pr and Au. Interestingly, when I hover the mouse over the speaker selection in the ASIO4ALL control panel, it only indicates there are 2 channels (but indicates that there are 6 INPUT channels). The Creative SBZ Series ASIO option is no better, providing only 2 channels.
So, I was off to check my system settings, which are all shown below:
As seen above, Windows knows there is 5.1 surround on the system, and the Test available in the bottom left dialog proves that each speaker is configured and working correctly. Audition also knows there is 5.1 available on my system and uses it correctly as described earlier. However, Pr refuses to recognize this and as a result I am unable to monitor any 5.1 surround projects on my system. If neither Au nor Pr worked, then I'd mark it down as Sound Card or Driver issues, but since one Adobe product uses the system audio correctly, and the other doesn't, it leads me to believe that it is Pr who is at fault.
So, my question is this: Why won't Pr recognize my 6 output channels like Au does?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Shane

ryclark, I believe you are correct in that Au uses MME while Pr uses WDM, but both MME and WDM (which, according to the Microsoft specification, encapsulates ALL of the MME capabilities, and expands on them) are 5.1 capable. I can play my export from Au as a 6 channel interleaved WAV file as well as an AC3 conversion of that same file in both VLC and Windows Media Player and get the same 5.1 channel surround sound field I do from Au.
After more research, I'm beginning to think this might be a result of the fact that Pr is 64 bit and Au is still 32 bit in CS5.5 and 6. I don't know if Au CC is 64 bit, but if it is, I'd be interested to know if what I am seeing is reproducible in the CC versions of Pr and Au (to eliminate the 64 bit vs 32 bit argument). Some have suggested that perhaps the standard SB driver is only 32 bit, although it 'supports' 64 bit supposedly, but maybe Pr just can't handle that 32 (faux 64) bit driver. A possibility.
Thanks for the read and response. Seems lots of people are in this boat together. You have recommended elsewhere to use an external audio interface, but just to do 5.1 monitoring (I don't do any live recording to my PC, this if for movie sound post/mixing) sounds pretty clunky. At the least, I think I'd need not only an external audio device with at least 6 channels out, but a receiver to take those outputs, and 6 new audio speakers to connect to that AVR. I currently use my computer's soundcard, as you know, and your standard 5.1 powered computer speaker system attached to that. Not the best, I know, but at this point, I'm just going for surround, but THX, so it is sufficient ;-).
Cheers,
Shane

Converted raw (or .dng) will not open in ACR?

OK, now that I've gotten sort-of over the hurdle of synching all the pieces associated with a smart object, I've hit the NEXT hurdle (SOs appear to be the usual double-edged sword - kinda handy in a way but rife with pitfalls and hurdles)...
I open a .NEF in Bridge, go into ACR and open the file as a Smart Object in Photoshop. Double-click the layer icon and I'm back in ACR, just like all the demos and seminars I've watched. But, take the SAME .NEF in Bridge and open it as a standard image in Photoshop, then CONVERT it to a smart object, double-click the layer icon and all I get is a .psd and NOT jump into ACR. It does exactly the same thing with a .dng file And from Lightroom OR ACR...
I found an entry from a discussion (not in here, I couldn't find anything about this in here) about CS3 (yes 3), where a user had this problem and was told it's because the original image was opened as a rasterized image, NOT as a Smart Object from ACR... Which isn't making sense to me 'cause who cares what it was way back when, it's NOW a Smart Object and should be treated like one no matter HOW it got there...
Is there some preference or setting or something I need to change in Photoshop so this will work as expected is is there really some restriction about exactly HOW the Smart Object got created? And if so, is there some paragraph is big, bold letters in the documentation that makes it really clear to the uninformed that you MUST open it as a Smart Object or it won't work?
And yes, I KNOW that in ACR I can set it so it defaults to opening as a Smart Object, but like many other PS users I normally use Lightroom and I haven't seen any such default. Which means it's REALLY easy to forget to go down to the Open as Smart Object and instead just hit Open in Photoshop...

Listen, buddy, no one has any obligation to answer your questions here in this user to user forum. Lose the attitude.
I'll repeat the answer anyway, as you apparently are unable to read replies carefully.

…CAN I take an image that was opened in Photoshop as a "standard" image, then converted to a smart object and edit it in ACR? If yes, HOW?
No, ABSOLUTELY NOT ! You cannot. Period. That's what I said in post #2 of this thread.
ACR will only open and edit Smart Objects that contain raw data. Any image opened in Photoshop —not as a Smart Öbject—is already cooked and contains no raw data any more. Additionally, ACR can edit JPEGs and TIFFs if you set your preferences accordingly, but with much less latitude and functionality than a raw file.
What's more, the cooked Smart Object 's now in the cooked PSB format (a variation of PSD that can handle much larger files than PSD can) so there's no way on Earth ACR can open it.

WHERE IS OUR USAGE MONITOR BT

Hi,
Now this is a COMPLETE RANT!
I am FED UP with my teeth seeing people talk about being threatened by increase of bills or changing contracts to the next product up because their usage is more than the product they have paid into.
For example, BT Bullies Granny , BT Charging for excessive use and wait for it, Went Over Option 1 FUP.....How To Upgrade? All of this when, NO USAGE MONITOR exists on the BT Website.
This really frustrates me because people are being pushed by upgrading to the next option where there could actually be better deals, lets face it, if a product does not work with the client, why continue with that product - move on! Im sure you would revert back to Heinz Beans compared to Tesco Value Beans a!
Another item that really frustrates me is how BT looks after it's customers, the lack of any compassion and bullying to make sure those who are struggling to pay bills on time get either cut off or phone numbers changed. Also, increasing direct debit payments which do not match the persons circumstances of calls and line rental, ok maybe one month you spent £2 more than normal,does not constitue an increase your DD from £30 to £75 pcm hay!
BT, you seem to be spitting in our faces, YOU are serving us as customers in a very bad way, WE are trying to advise YOU how YOU can help us, PLEASE LISTEN TO US, give us a USAGE MONITOR, GET RID of the term UNLIMITED, it is not an industry term which includes FUP, TELL US what we are paying for, something easy to understand with NO SMALL PRINT.
LISTEN so we can all be heard!

It is not the case of stereotyping or ageism that is the problem, the problem is BT a large worldwide organisation can not provide a utility to advise its customers there usage of broadband by day month or period, others can provide this, my mobile operator provides this so why not BT!

Why is it when I zoom at any value other than 25%, 50% or 100% my photoshop image looks pixelated?

This is really bugging me and I can't get any work done...but I've had Photoshop for years so I know that if you zoom at any value other that 25%, 50%, 100%, 200% etc then the image loses some of it's quality, but up until today the image looked a little blurry when at a different zoom value, but now it looks really pixelated which makes the image looks really ugly and is making it hard to actually do anything. I have no idea what I did to change it to this, but now I can't change it back and I've tried everything I can think of.

I've been using Photoshop for a decade and a half and have never, ever seen what you describe.

The zip file includes some files named .prc. Can I just copy these to the palm, or are they installers? If just copy, how to install?
I haven't got the sucker to sync yet; I'm using USB mass driver mode to copy files. This is good enough for me IF I can install software that way...
