Problem: Audio device only accepts microphone

Alright. Ive been googling around, looking at other threads that have this problem without any success.
This is the case:
I want to stream with FMLE with stereo mix as my audio device but i cant do that.
To start off with, stereo mix is enabled. Its not set as a standard device or anything such as that but its enabled.
For the second picture, the "list" of my audio devices in FMLE. Note that there is no stereo mix.
As the problem got more frustrating, i found this thread
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/941171
I tried to exactly what it said, but as you see on picture number 3, there is no
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveMovie\devenum 64-bit\{33D9A762-90C8-11D0-BD43-00A0C911CE86}"
So i couldnt copy any settings to
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveMovie\devenum\{33D9A762-90 C8-11D0-BD43-00A0C911CE86}"
I have reinstalled my motherboards audio drivers, which by the way is Realtek HD Audio, or something like that, without any success at all.
I have tried Viritual Audio Cable and checked regedit for any outputs/inputs but i couldnt find any.
I have also tried elder versions of FMLE but ive been having the same problem.
My specs are the following:
MS Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1
Intel Core i5 2500
16,0 GB Corsair Vengance
Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. Z68X-UD3H-B3
GeForce GTX 570
977GB Seagate ST31000528AS ATA Device
ANY help is VERY appriciated!

I have sound but FMLE and manycam are not detecting audio devices and also have a profile validation error. From reading the posts I should have "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveMovie\devenum\{33D9A762-90 C8-11D0-BD43-00A0C911CE86}" in my registry but it's not there.. Where do I add it and how?
Thank you

USB Audio Device only plays left channel out both speakers.

usually i use my Yamaha Audiogram 3 usb audio device to record things in cubase, and when the cubase settings are set it is fine, but as soon as i close cubase, the left channel of any audio (like itunes playback) plays out of both left and right speakers in the headphones i use. this only happens when the Audiogram 3 is plugged into 1 certain usb port (of 2).
its even fine when i have cubase running in the background while i play music from itunes. it just doesn't make any sense. it also appears to recognize that its stereo in one port, but not the other.
i would suspect it has something to do with the drivers for the usb device (if there even are any), that the drivers it placed into the system only applies to that one usb port, but if thats the case, you would think it would install new drivers for the other port as soon as i plug in my audiogram, but thats not the case.
no cd for the audiogram. you simply plug it in.
ive tried restarting the computer, plugging it in again, trying to change the settings. nothing seems to work. i need the other port to work.

Try resetting the PRAM. Info here:

You may also want to take a look at the Audio MIDI Setup utility and make sure everything is configured properly there.

Problem: Audio Device Change While Listening

So this is a problem that I have noticed on pretty much any computer I have worked on. If I am listening to iTunes through my standard speakers and then I connect my bluetooth headset, iTunes will still try and play out of the speakers while Windows plays out the headset. I have to restart iTunes for it to understand that I have a new audio device (which also happens to be the default). There has to be a way for iTunes to change playback devices somehow. In Windows it is changing correctly in Control Panel -> Sounds and Audio Devices (in XP). It changes from SigmaTel Audio to Bluetooth Stereo Audio in the Volume and Audio tabs. This is also a problem in Vista. I have noticed it does this with both of my bluetooth headsets OR if I change from standard out to optical out on my home sound card. It is like it takes that initial setting and refuses to change when Windows does....
Anyways, any help would be GREAT! Thanks!

Hello Charlotte
Please check in device manager if the sound card is installed properly (start-control panel-system-hardware tab). The card must also be enabled. If there is everything ok please check also in control panel Sound and Audio devices properties. There are lots of settings. Maybe is one of them responsible about that. Please check also Volume control.
You can find it under start-all programs-accessories-entertainment-volume control. Check there if there is all set to maximum especially volume control and WAVE.

T400 (2765/21G) Audio-Recording only from Microphone ?

Hello Forum,
in my T400 works an Conexant Smart 221 Chip for Sound.
Vista x64 Ultimate is my System.
Now I try to record Sound from an avi File (During the File play).
The Problem is: In the Recording Settings, Microphone is the only Choice for Record Source.
I missed an entry like "Stereo-Mix" or "What you hear" (the Devicename is Different).
In every PC or Notebook System I ever had, I was able to record the Sound that actually plays on the System.
So what...? Do I need other Driver ? Doesn´t the Conexant Smart 221 support that ?
Anyone an Idea ?
I hope the Post is readable for you, and my English is realy not perfect

Hello Userle,
unfortunately, the stereomix feature is disabled, by hardware, since T/ 61 series.
It seem there is no workaround to get to work. Please have a look at this extenisive thread

Audio Manager only accepting downloaded mp3s - Hel...

Hi there.
I'm new to the whole Bluetooth thing, and finally got my phone and computer set up, but I seem to be having problems using the audio manager.
When I search for music on my computer, even when I search through all the folders etc, it will only transfer music that has been downloaded off the net, and nothing that I have ripped onto real music player, or windows media player. Is this normal?
It will also not let me rip from CD into Audio Manager, and keeps saying I have no hard disk left??
Can someone please advise me how I get music onto the Audio Manager so that I can transfer it onto my phone (6230i).
I've managed to transfer one of the downloaded mp3s onto the phone no problem, but all my music is ripped. ;o(
Thanks in advance.

Try moving the music files from your PC using "file manager" in PC Suite, does that work ?

High Definition Audio Device - Device Cannot Start (Code 10)

I am having a problem isolating an indication in the Device Manager with the High Definition Audio Device. I have Intel Graphics with this machine. The OS is W10 Pro. I loaded the audio driver for Windows 7 64 bit, but that did not make any difference. The Device Manager indicates that "This device cannot start (Code 10)" Driver Date 7/9/2015 / Version - 10.0.10240.16384 / Microsoft Driver Details Tab - Value = High Definition Audio Device From the Events Tab - (Information)Device HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_8086&DEV_2804&SUBSYS_80860101&REV_1000\4&36c4990c&0&0301 requires further installation. Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

Hi The problem HD audio device you are seeing is the Intel HDMI audio device that needs a driver. I looked around for a W10 driver for the hardware ID you posted, and can't find one. You don't need that device unless you want/need audio through the display port. The only suggestion I can offer would be to try the W7 Intel graphics driver from your notebook's support and driver page, but install it this way...so that you just target the problem audio device... Download, but don't run this graphics driver... http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?sp4ts.oid=4095873&swItemId=ob_127914_1&swEnvOid=4059 Download and install this free file utility. 64 bit is the second file listed. http://www.7-zip.org/ After you install 7-zip, right click on the graphics driver file you downloaded, and select 7-zip from the list of items. Have 7-Zip Extract to: and let it extract the driver to the folder name (sp64360). Go to the device manager and click on the problem Intel HD audio device needing the driver. Click on the driver tab. Click on Update Driver. Select the Browse my computer for driver software option, and browse to the driver folder 7-Zip created. Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked, and see if the driver installs that way. Then reboot. If you explore the driver folder 7-zip created, and open the DisplayAudio folder, you will find the setup information file that has the hardware ID you posted as supported by the driver. Whether or not this audio driver will work on W10, that I do not know. But if you want to give that a try, that would be a way to do it without messing with the actual graphics driver.

How do i stream my iMac screen to a device that accepts component video only

I have a new iMac (2015) and I want to send my screen from my mac to a video switcher called a NewTek Tricaster 40. It only accepts component or composite video input. I want to send my iMac's screen to it in real time so I can incorporate it into my live video productions. I have attempted to use several HDMI to component converters and none have worked. I am using the Kanex Pro HDMI to Component Converter to convert the HDMI out from two HD camcorders to component and sending that into my Tricaster 40. It is seeing the signal just fine and giving me solid HD video. So I attempted to use the same Kanex Pro for the iMac. First I used apple's lightning to HDMI cable then plugged that HDMI into another Kanex Pro HDMI to component converter. No dice. I tried all the component video settings: 1080p 30PsF, 1080 24PsF, 1080i, 720p, 720/30p, 720/24p. None worked

Next I purchased an apple lightning to DVI adaptor. Then I plugged the DVI into this Lindy DVI to component converter. It also failed at all resolutions. None worked for SD resolutions either.

After hunting for a solution someone suggested that HDCP protection might be my problem. Apparently in an effort to keep people form pirating movies Microsoft and apple use HDCP to keep people form making this conversion? I'm nor sure how this works I just know that I am leagaly allowed to incorporate brief news clips into my news comentary on my youtub channel so long as I cite them and add to them substantially. I do both. So is HDCP my issue? If so what is the work around?

NewTek has a program called IVGA that will allow me to share my screen over my local network but the frame rate is horribly choppy and is not useful for capturing video clips form youtube or game play.
Bottom line how do I stream high quality (720 /24p minimum) video from my iMac to a device that only accepts component video in.

I did end up using an apple thunderbolt to DVI.
Next a DVI to HDMI.

On my iMac:
I had to go into my device settings > Display
then I set the "Optimize for:" to "CAT-6066"
after that I selected the "Scaled" option right underneath
then i selected 1080i because the Kanex Pro is designed to convert 1080i into component
I was then able to get my NewTek Tricaster 40 to recognize that component signal from the Kanex Pro and add it to my production as 1080i or as 1080p/30. The frame rate looks great and the video quality is very smooth and in real time.

HP High Definition Audio Device Code 10 Error -- Causing HDMI Sound Problem

Hey guys, my laptop is an HP ENVY TouchSmart m7-j010dx Notebook PC, running Windows 8.1.
When I connect my laptop to my LG Smart TV through HDMI, I cant change the playback device to play the sound from the TV. The HDMI option does not appear in ¨Sound¨.
When I look in Device Manager, under Sound, video and game controllers; the High Definition Audio CODEC has an error which says (Device status):
This device cannot start. (Code 10)
{Operation Failed}
The requested operation was unsuccessful.
I have tried reinstalling and updating the drivers, cleaning and defraging the registry, optimizations etc.
I followed steps from other posts with similar problem as mine and nothing seems to work, I do not want to reinstall my windows just for this! I am running out of options, I tried everything I could for the past week. I would really appreciate some expert advice.
Thanks!

Fire Wire Audio Devices (M-Audio, MOTU etc) - Problems

This problem is discussed already. But only in connection with Bootcamp.
Apparently, there is a problem with the new FW Controllers uses in newer Apple models. Opposed to the traditional Texas Instruments controller, the new one create problems with FW audio devices. There is a big discussion on the RME page on that (without conclusive result, however). But I think the problem is more general and needs to be addressed:
Here is my problem: New Macbook pro, my M-Audio FW 1814 worked at the beginning )only garage band= with the beta version of the OS X 10. 5 driver, but than failed. Updated driver of m-audio )released end of april, did not help. My apple seems to recognize the external device, the software mixer shows movements, but there is no sound whatsoever coming in or out. Same with MIDI.
My question: Did apple give any statement on the problem? A lot of customers buy apple for making music, after all.
Cheers,
P

Yes, if you setup an aggregate device in the Audio Midi setup of your Mac combining the two FW devices. Open the Device editor->press "new device"->name it->choose the available devices in the menue below->hit ok/done/"fertig" (in german)->select this new device in Logic preferences as your Audio device

My mac desktop will not provide sound from internal speakers. when I go to audio devices window it only shows airplay. How can I get internal speakers back.

There are many possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Some may not apply to your model. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article. Don't skip any of the steps. It's the starting point for further efforts to solve the problem.
2. Run Software Update and make sure you have a fully up-to-date installation of OS X.
3. If you've installed an application called "Memory Clean" or any other third-party software that is supposed to "clean" or "purge" memory automatically, remove it according to the developer's instructions and restart. You should do that even if the software is not causing the problem, because it's useless.
4. Other third-party software that has been reported to interfere with sound output includes "Boom" and "Samsung Kies." If applicable, uninstall according to the developer's instructions (not by dragging something to the Trash.)
5. If an AirPlay device is selected for sound output from iTunes (or from other applications via third-party software such as "Airfoil"), deselect it.
6. Launch the application "Audio MIDI Setup" by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search and selecting it in the results (it should be at the top.) Select Built-in Output from the list on the left. If the Mute boxes are checked, uncheck them.
7. If a red light is visible in the audio-out port when sound should be playing, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
8. Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard and mouse, if applicable. If more than one display is connected, disconnect all extra ones. Restart and test.
9. If you have a MacBook Air, turn off Bluetooth and restart.
10. Start up in safe mode. Don't log in; just restart as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
11. Reset the NVRAM.
12. Reset the SMC.
13. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Preferences/Audio
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Recreate your settings in the Sound preference pane.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
14. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data.
15. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

Problem audio microphone

I have problem with the sound entry. The imac does not recognize next sound internal microphone and external microphone). I have checked the configurations. Everything looks like OK but it does not bring in sound. Can they help me?
I have Snow leopard and it is an imac of 2008

I have sound but FMLE and manycam are not detecting audio devices and also have a profile validation error. From reading the posts I should have "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveMovie\devenum\{33D9A762-90 C8-11D0-BD43-00A0C911CE86}" in my registry but it's not there.. Where do I add it and how?
Thank you

4.2.1 was supposed to fix problems, but it only created new ones. No video on some movies, no audio on others, and can't even play some movies. Can you please provide a means to restore 4.1.1?

4.2.1 was supposed to fix problems, but it only created new ones. No video on some movies, no audio on others, and can't even play some movies. Can you please provide a means to restore 4.1.1?

Let me try again, Chenks. I'm a technical person by profession, and so can get deeper into things like this, but I have not attempted to use these methods of communication in the past. I'm trying to get some feedback to Apple on their worsening a product and really messing with existing customer configurations. I'll try to break things up below.
1. Configuration:
Existing Apple TV and Mac Mini configuration in place since December 2010.
Three Apple TVs, one in Family Room for music and movies, one in Master Bedroom for music and movies, the third one in the Living Room for music only.
I'm using iTunes as library. (Probably an obvious statement, but wanted to mention that.)
2. Pre 4.2.1
No problems at any location since configuration finalized and all equipment installed in December.
Since December, Family Room entertainment equipment was updraded to a new Sony Bravia 3D, and a new Pioneer receiver. The Master Bedroom still has the original Toshiba 32HLC56 TV. That unit has only one HDMI input. I'm using the built-in speakers. This TV/Monitor is about fives years old.
3. Problem
I updated the software in two of the Apple TVs to 4.2.1. I updated the Family Room device and the Master Bedroom device. I had not updated the Living Room device.
After updating to 4.2.1, the Family Room equipment works fine. That's the location with the newer TV and receiver.
The Master Bedroom has different problems with different movies: e.g. "The Little Mermaid:" video, no audio. "The Lion King:" movie wont start at all.
Additionally, in the Master Bedroom some movies work fine, other movies start but immediately go into pause mode. Pressing pause button on Apple remote will not initiate start of movie, screen does "flicker" for a moment but movie does not start to play, showing only the last frame that had been streamed.
4. Not really a problem for me.
Fortunately for me, I had not updated the Apple TV in the living room so I used it to troubleshoot the problem. Initially I thought it was a defective Apple TV in the Master Bedroom. I took the unit to the Apple Store in town and they exchanged it for me. I brought the replacement Apple TV home but I did not install it immediately.
While testing the Master Bedroom set up once again to make it was working for our afternoon movie watching, I was again reminded that a software update was available. That message came up because it was the unit I had brought over from the Living Room. I proceeded to update the Apple TV to the new software version (4.2.1).
As soon as I "updated" the software in the Apple TV to the new 4.2.1, the same problems manifested themselves. At that point I suspected that the problem was with 4.2.1, and not with the hardware.
I called Apple Support and went through a series of troubleshooting techniques. We tested the Apple TV with the new 4.2.1 installed in it. This is the unit which originially in the Living Room. Under the direction of the Apple TV support technician, I used the Family Room gear and the Master Bedroom gear to try and isolate the problem to hardware or software.
We eliminated the following as potential problems:
a. TV speakers in the Master Bedroom
b. HDMI cable
c. Ethernet connection
5: Conclusion:
Fortunately for me, again, the Apple TV that the Apple Store had given me that morning still had 4.1.1. So I installed that unit in the Master Bedroom and everything started working normal again.
6. Side note:
An interesting observation: In early March I copied several movies from the Mac Mini to my iPad and some to my wife's iPad. All movies worked fine on our flight out and while we were away.
My wife recently (about a week ago) updated the software in her iPad. and now some of the movies that played just fine on her iPad are exhibiting the same problems as the Master Bedroom TV when it is connected to an Apple TV with software 4.2.1.
Apple has been trying to fix some problems in 4.2 when it released 4.2.1. I make that observation based on recent articles I found on the web. Most likely the Apple engineers were trying to fix things in one place and broke them in another.
Clear as mud, isn't it?
7. In closing:
I'm good to go, I just need to remember not to update the software in the Master Bedroom Apple TV. I want to keep that unit at 4.1.1. It's possible that Apple might come to the realization that they hosed things for some of us. Because I do have three units in my home, I can experiement with the other two units should a "fix" come out. I can then update one of the two devices, connect it to the Master Bedroom TV, and see if the problem was corrected. If not, I stay with 4.1.1. But I'm not convinced that Apple will see this as their problem, it's always easier to point elsewhere.

Master gain problem with Direct Audio Device: distorted sound

Hi everybody,
I'm in a bit of a fix here. I've got an application that plays music. Developped with 1.4.2, got it working.
However, when I run it with the the latest 1.5 release (5.0 update 6), the sound is distorted. More specifically, though I'm not entirely sure, I'd say it's the bass that gets distorted. By "distorted" I mean it's shrieking, scratching instead of... well, sounding.
I'm using the FloatControl.Type.MASTER_GAIN control to change the "volume". Since it's playback, I'm using a SourceDataLine, and that one ain't got no VOLUME control. Now the problem only appears when I'm amplifying the audio data, i.e. when the MASTER_GAIN's value is greater than 0.0 decibel.
Inverstigating a little more, I found out that 1.5 is using the "Direct Audio Device" Mixer as default as opposed to the "Java Sound Audio Engine" used by 1.4.2. If I force the use of the Java Sound Audio Engine with 1.5 (getting the line from the appropriate Mixer), the sound is OK. However, since the application is intended to be cross-platform, I'd prefer not to impose any such specific behaviour (plus the performance of the Direct Audio Device is twice as good).
Tested on Linux version 2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 and Windows NT.
Looked at www.jsresources.org, but didn't find any information specific to this problem.
Bugparade: no hits.
I'd be glad if anyone could help me on this.

Nobody ?
It narrowed it down to the following testcode. Please try to run it with Java 1.5 and some compatible audio file (a WAVE file, for instance):
