Problems with connection Creative zen M and DVD-CD pla

Hi,
I have problems whem i connect my zen to the DVD player. I've connected zen with a cable going from the headphones to the audio line in (red and white) at the back of the DVD system. I get sound but the problem is that my zen automaticly switch to the FM radio mode, when it should be playing from the music libary. This happens by 70% of the numbers. How can I deal with this problem?
Problem 2 is that I hear a strong noise when I connect my zen to the DVD player. It's al low sound which comes back in all the 5 boxes en sounds like a bee...
Problem 3 is that I can't get the full volume on the DVD system. Even when zen is max on 25 i've to put the DVD system also max before a normal sound is coming to me...
Can anybody please help me? Thanks!

Hi there,
. The reason the ZVM is switching to fm radio is because the headphone jack also supports a wired remote that controls some of the ZVM functions there will be some sort of back feed from your DVD head unit to the ZVM causing this to happen.
2. The headphone jack does carry a bit of noise when used with line in applications and compared to the line out function of the ZVM is muffled and lacks power(this also could be noise in your DVD unit).
3. Same as above(2) the A/V out function has a set volume and is louder and much clearer than the headphone out jack.( The line out is the A/V out function of the ZVM found in the supplied adaptor that plugs into the bottom of the ZVM)
To overcome this problem simply use the line out function of the ZVM either through the dongle and an A/V cable or get an after market cable to suit and that should solve your problems with this type application.
Let us know how you go with it
Heres the bits

Or you can search for a cable that plugs straight into the bottom of the ZVM and has rca's on the other end, you should be able to find then via a search here or through epizenter.net in one of the threads

  • A problem with my Creative Zen Xtra and Mediasou

    When I play music off of my Zen on my computer through Mediasource, sometimes Mediasource will close down out of nowhere and will not reopen unless I restart my computer. I have the most updated version of the Zen's driver and everything.
    Does anyone know what could be going on here and if so, how do I fix this issue?
    Thanks.

    Someone has to know! Enlighten me! Haha.

  • Problems with connecting. (Zen Xt

    I've been having quite a problem with my Zen Xtra. When I connect it to my USB port, It gives me those beeping errors made by either Creative Or windows. I have a 4 year old computer, so it has USB . ports. I bought a PCI to USB 2.0 card, The zen worked fine for awhile, and all of a sudden, it stopped! I tried almost everything. I updated the firmware...And I couldn't because it requires USB connectivity. I installed the other software, I replaced the USB hub also. It went shot on me, but I connected it and it didn't work, but when I plug in my mouse, printer, and keyboard...And they all work fine. I've even formatted my Zen and it still dosen't work. I've tried connecting it in the USB . port and still dosent work. I've even tried searching for BIOS updates for my mobo, but to no avail...nothing. Althought I did try on another computer, and it did work just fine. Although the computer's USB ports are on the mobo instead of a PCI card.
    I'm at the end of my rope here! I have no idea what's going on.

    Sounds like the drivers have got messed for your PCI USB.
    Try the following, remove the PCI board and place it in a slot away from the AGP (graphics slot). This should force a reinstall of the driver. Sometimes you can get conflict with memory allocations for the PCI slot.
    Remove any hubs that you may have and plug directly into the card, some things draw a lot of current for example optical mouse and unless you have a powered hub this maybe causing problems.

  • PLEASE HELP - Serious problem with my Creative Zen Touch firmware

    Ok, so I finally decided that I would upgrade to the latest firmware version for my Creative Zen Touch. I knew that doing so would erase everything on it, so I backed up everything onto my computer's hard dri've. So from that standpoint, I'm in the clear.
    HOWEVER, during the upgrade process, my computer froze, leaving my precious MP3 player without ANY firmware. This then drove it into "recovery" mode, where I can either clean up, format, or reload firmware. I've gone through each of these options, but when I go to "reload firmware" my computer will no longer detect my Zen! I've tried reinstalling different driver versions, different firmware versions, etc. The bottom line now is that my mp3 player has no firmware, and my computer won't detect it.
    I feel like I probably need to go back to the basics. Unfortuantely, I don't have my installation CD with me. Can anyone post the initial installation file please? Thanks in advance!
    I really hope I can work this out, I don't know if I've gone a day without my Zen in the past two years!

    Simon, this is actually a common problem with the touch. Mine did it about a year after purchase, so I was safe to open it up and fix it. It is actually a really simple fix and is due to a loose connector. I know alot of other people on nomadness.net were having this problem, so I posted a solution here. Hope this helps!

  • Major problem with my Creative Zen Touch 20gb pla

    I seem to be having some serious problems with my player - the scroll button no longer works, and the right-side buttons (Back, Play/Pause and Forward) all malfunction as well. The main issue is the scroll button - this no longer works at all, and without this function the player is essentially useless in all modes other than 'random' - as I cannot scroll down to choose songs by album, artist, genre etc. Even in 'random' mode, the functionality of the player is negligible - I cannot fast forward a track, as if I hold down the 'forward' button it automatically skips forward to new tracks without the chance to play one of them.
    This is not the first time I've had a problem with this particular model - I've had complaints before on this forum about an earlier player I had (same model), a different problem but one that was never fixed - through my own error I misplaced the receipt and was unable to have the player fixed (it was within warranty at the time), so I had to pay ?50 for a replacement - to find that this player is now essentially broken as well has left me disgusted, in honesty. Details of the earlier problems with my former player are at the following link:
    http://forums.creative.com/creativelabs/board/message?board.id=dap&message.id=5966
    As if this wasn't enough, I actually experienced problems with my newer player almost from the off - the data folder malfunctioned, to the extent that files I'd placed in there were unable to be removed - eventually I had to format the player, not only losing important data from the data folder, but also experiencing the inconvience of having to spend many hours putting all my music back onto the player once it had been formatted. This was not a massi've issue, more a minor irritance, but again it's left me wondering what the problem is...is this model notoriously poor performance-wise? Three major errors on two separate players, two of them seemingly fatal to the use of the player, inside the space of just over a year is utterly ridiculous, I think.
    At this point, I'd like to know what I can do to get a reimbursement on the cost of my current player, as opposed to a replacement - although I have found the performance of the Zen Touch 20gb to be generally very good, I'm not willing to put up with having each new replacement fail within a year of receiving it. I have lost all confidence in Creative providing me with a player I can rely on, to be honest.
    If anyone could point me in the right direction with regards to finding out how I can go about receiving a refund on the price of my player, I'd be very grateful.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Problem with the Creativ Zen Touch 20

    Hello,
    I have a problem with my 20 Gb Creative Zen Touch.
    Since today he gets stuck if "<EM>Zen Touch</EM>" on the screen appears. Put back nothing brings, he gets stuck further there at the same place. My computer does not recognize him and charge nothing also brings.
    What can I do?

    Hi, I get sometimes the same problem, try to turn on in recovery mode & clean up:
    Go to www.creative.com -> support -> knowledge base ->and select you player, & search: "Recovery Mode: What to Do And How To Access"
    & follow the instructions.
    I cleaned up my player, but this action erased my songs. So,back up your files before do this.

  • A problem with a creative Zen Touch 20

    My creative zen touch now almost always has the battery indicator that says that it is using outside power, even when it is completely disconnected from outside power. The only time that it sometimes does not have that as its battery indicator is when im charging it from the non-usb power adapter. Then it shows the normal charging icon. This is very irritating because i can never tell how much batter my Touch has left.

    so i guess, no one can help me

  • Problems with connect to Em console and IE6.0 with sp1

    After installing OEM10g on W2K (server) and trying to connect and login to the management console (http://<servername>:80/em ) with Internet explorer I got the message that my IE browser was to low (5.0) and I have to upgrade to IE5.5 or higher. So I decided to install the newest IE (6.0 + sp1) and tried again to login to Oracle Enterprise Manager but getting a script error now.
    The strange thing is that I can connect (same way) from my own pc but there I have IE 6.0 without sp1 and there it works fine.
    Is this a bug or is there an option in IE6.0 sp1 to disable/ignore the scripting error ?

    I found there's a patch available for IE6SP1 from microsoft :
    Overview
    In the last few weeks you might have experienced difficulty logging on to secure Web sites or completing transactions on the Web. You might also have noticed more “HTTP 500 internal server error” messages.
    If you have been experiencing these problems recently, then your computer might have a recent security update installed (Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer MS04-004) that changes how Internet Explorer sends information to the Internet. Some secure Web sites do not work well with this security update and might cause you to experience the problems above.
    I have installed this patch, but it still doesn't solve my problem.
    Perhaps because this patch is for IE6sp1 (64 bits), I have the 128 bits version.

    AppName: itunes.exe AppVer: 9.0.2.25 ModName: quicktime.qts
    In this context, that can sometimes indicate trouble with a content file on the phone (or Touch).
    Do you have any podcasts stored on the iPhone at the moment? If so, if you delete them from the phone, can you connect to iTunes without the error?
