Recording on Zen Mi

I can successfully record sounds on my zen micro, but I can't save the sounds, so as soon as I exit the recording option, I've lost the information. How can I save it's?

You can't just hit the exit button you have to tell it to stop before you exit so the buffer can catch up with the IO write. try pause then the menu. You can then rename the file

TV or hard disk recorder to Zen Na

Is there a way or cable to connect my Zen Nano to TV or Hard disk recorder via the line in for recording to the Nano?

Has the Nano a line-in connector - I thought it was the Nano Plus (and the N200) with the line-in.
If you just have the Nano then this won't be possible.

Line in recording on Zen

Hello,did anyone have any issues recording through line in on Zen V?Go to extras ->line in recoding press on rec. begins to record fine, shows the levels going up and down and on the screen. click on rec again says sayving. When i go to tarnsfer files nothing appears to be saved in my recordings folder. Also is there anyway to change a default 28 Kbs rec quality to a higher one?Any help is greatly appreciated.

You have the line in going into the correct jack, the 3/32 mini jack and not the /8 headphone jack right? Some people have mistakingly plugged the line in into the headphone jack thinking that is how they recorded.

Voice Recording Issue - Zen Micro

Hello,
I have the 5Gb version of the Zen Micro and I'm running it with version ..0 of the software. I'm a Uni'versity student and I use the device for recording lectures. It records properly but I like to off load the files to my main computer and sometimes I'll share them with absent classmates.
I've had this device for over a year now and I'm usually able to drag and drop the files using the Creative MediaSource Organizer version 3.30.2. In the past this has NOT been a huge issue because if the drag and drop fails to copy the file, or if it errors out when copying, I usually just reboot the player and try again.
Sometimes it takes awhile but I've only NOT been able to get file off of the device. To give you some idea of how much I use it, I'm in either 4-5 classes a semester and I tape almost all of them. Like I said...in the past year that I've had it, I have only had file that I couldn't copy off the player.
Today, I tried to copy recordings over but nothing is working. I know the files on the player are OK because I listented to the one that was erroring and it's there, I just can't get it off the player. A classmate needs these copies but I can't get them to him becuase of these errors. NOTHING works. I've tried dragging and droping, synching even following the links when it errored and Microsoft told me to come here for updates.
I should also add that I've tried copying many different files off of the device today...not just the first one on the list and nothing will copy.
I have ALLL the updates installed and still no copying. What can I do? Am I outta luck?Message Edited by John-OKC5 on 09-9-2006 09:20 PM

Like I mentioned in my first post, it has ALWAYS been a problem getting the recordings off the device. It's never just worked, like soo many other devices do.
Next, it was only in the past 3-4 months that the marginally working methods completly failed me. However, during the WHOLE time I've had the device, I've always had my FW and VS software up and running. So I was able to copy files off the device but it was problematic. However, nothing has changed in the past 3-4 months except what used to partially work...no longer works or is limping along. Rolling back is not an option because there is no point in time where it worked w/o failing.
Finally, Creative devolopers can always be of help because they are familiar with how their products work. They may not guarantee no conflicts and in all honesty I'm not saying they should. However, they should be acti've in this forum to help resolve issues....but in the threads I've seen...no developers.
Oh and when I told Windows to send the error report, it came back with a message that the creative developers have a fix for the problem. However, when I click on the link it takes me to the patch for the device and/or the newest version of creative media source. BOTH OF WHICH I ALREADY HAVE.....so really, they don't have a solution for the problem.Message Edited by John-OKC5 on 09-2-2006 0:53 PM

Recording with Zen V P

I am interested to get a Zen v plus. But I would like to know
a) Whether its Line-in can record with an external microphone (without an amp)? What's its maximum single (without split) recording-time if it is on 60 Kbps? (say on a Gb zen v version)
b) Is it true that its voice recording feature can "captures audio in WAV format at only 8 kHz"? Again, what's its maximum recording time if of this format?
cheers

I tried rercording with an external mic via line-in and it did not pick up anything. An amp is definately needed.

Voice recording on zen stone 1

hi - is it possible to make voice notes on the stone (st gen without screen) - thought i read somewhere that stone could do this, but might just be new gen 2 one? :/? ta

Which Zen are you referring to If it's the first generation Zen player then yes it will need the FM wired remote to provide FM radio and voice recording as the player does not have inbuilt microphone to do the task but this Zen player does not have 60GB capacity unless you are referring to the Zen Xtra player. For the Zen Xtra player, it does not support the FM wired remote and thus no option for voice recording.
The current Zen Micro player should be what you need as it have inbuilt microphone and FM radio so you do not need to purchase additional accessory but the highest capacity available are at 6GB and not 60GB though.

FM recording in Zen V P

What can you tell me about this feature?
Was it in the old firmwares?
I know the situation with Creative Zen Vision:M ? radio recording feature presented in the old firmwares but it was deleted in the new one.
But why?Message Edited by Break on 0-08-2006 05:59 AM

Your own site describes the V Plus record button as working with the FM Tuner. Checkout the following I copied:<font face="Verdana" size="" color="#000065">ZEN V Plus and ZEN V players at a glance
<font face="Verdana" size="" color="#444444">9. Record button
Press this button to start or stop a voice, FM radio, or line-in recording.

Lin-in recording on Zen Photo

I want to know if the Zen Micro Photo will allow line-in recording from an exterior source .
thanks, Colin

Colin,
I'm afraid not. The Zen Micro Photo player does not have a Line In jack unlike player like the Zen Neeon.

Recording on Zen Visio

Hi People
I'm thinking about upgrading to a VisionM from ZenMicro...
my first question is this: I heard that you can only record for 0 minutes on the VisionM. Is that the case. because i'll mostly use this player for recording the class. I can use the micro for workouts and stuff..
and my other question is about the headphone jack problem
I've owned a ZenXtra,MuvoTX FM,ZenMicro 5GB, ZenMicro 6GB... an guess what ALL of them had the headphone jack problem in a couple of weeks...
Did anybody encounter the headphone jack problem on the VisionM yet?
I think creative should mainly work on the headphone jack problem rahter than any other new mp3 player.
Well thats all I have to ask. Thanx In advance

well 0 hours should be just about enough for one lecture ...
I hope I won't need it all for just one lecture anyway...
thanx for the quick answers...
actually I changed my ZenMicro for 6 times through warranty... the thing is the only reason I upgrade from one creative to another is the headphone jack problem... I don't want to use Ipoo, and Iri'ver's are extremely expensi've where I used to li've...
The point is I wrecked like more than 0 headphone jacks in 3 years... not impressi've...
the most frustating thing is the Ipoo's jack just WONT DIE!!!!!
whatever I did..
How hard can it be for Creative Techs to Buy an Ipoo and see what's the magic with the jack?

Quality of line-in recording for zen nano p

how good is the line-in rec for ZenNP? is there any background disturbance? most of my songs are on tapes. so if i encode them, will it sound the same as playing it in my walkman?

Put the audio CD into your PC and rip the CD to wma or mp3 files using Windows Media Player. PB

Lost Record

I have a Creative Zen M: 30 GB which I was using to record interviews,
after 45 minutes of recording the Zen locked up, requiring a restart.
However, the interview does not appear to be on the Hard Dri've.
Would this interview be recoverable?

It is the best board for Soundblaster card queries, but you have to remember this is a peer-to-peer board. It could be no one else has experienced a similar problem, or has anything to add that might help.
If you need Support from Creative directly, help is available through the Support channels (phone and e-mail).
Did you check the mixer to make sure nothing was adjusted there? Is everything still set correctly in Control Panel > Sounds & Audio Devices?

Manged device at the client, but not shown in ZCM

How is (was) it possible that I have have a ZCM agent that is receiving bundles, shows Managed, and otherwise looking healthy, but is not found anywhere in ZCC?
maint-zcm.jpg
In the workstation folder, I've done a wildcard search and it's nowhere to be found. I updated the agent with the latest 11.2.4 agent, and now it shows in ZCC. My concern is, how many more "managed" workstations might I have that aren't shown in ZCC?

We've been having this problem for several years now. Devices disappearing, re-appearing, renaming.
We had a couple of issues - images with the agent installed, drives imaged on a PC in the IS office then removed and the drive put into another computer which caused the same serial number to be replicated, etc.
I had put a trigger on one of the tables to capture name changes - some of which are valid, some that are duplicate devices stumping on each other
Then I bounced the names of the PCs in my WSUS server against those in ZEN Works.
When I detected a PC with an issue I would try to fix it with all the recommendations - cc, fsg -d, zizwin /clear, unr. reg -g, etc.
This almost never worked - it kept picking up the GUID in ZEN Works - sometimes it would work IF I deleted the record from ZEN Works AND I could get to the PC to correct it, bit almost always it would never get a new GUID because it would reconcile.
We finally turned off all reconcile settings in registration and viola!
I now see my duplicates showing up and if I do a zac cc, a ziswin /clear and then a zac reg -g I get a new record for that device - I then delete the old one so that when another one of the PCs in that group refreshes itself I get a new record. Then repeat that process on that one in case there is more then a pair of PCs reconciling.
For WIN 7 devices the have the same name I have been using WMIC ComputerSystem where Name="duplicatednamehere" call Rename Name="newname here" to rename the device - this only takes effect after a reboot but eventually everyone has to reboot.
Shouldn't be that hard but it has been a real PITA to get cleaned up spending most of my day monitoring ZEN Works for every new device that shows up and weeding through the messages.

Unknown VMWare ESX traps

Has anyone managed to get VMWare ESX SNMP traps recorded into Zen for
Servers 6.5?
I have complied all the MIBs supplied from the ESX Server install
successfully and the alarms now appear in the Alarm Disposition, but I am
still receiving unknown alarms from the ESX server. The OID
is .1.3.6.1.4.1.6876.50.0.201.
According to what the VMWare site says, this refers to a state change to
one of the VM instances on the ESX Server. E.g. A VM instance and changed
from SUSPENDED to ON.
I did manage to download an updated VMWARE-TRAPS-MIB MIB that included
the 201 trap and the associated OBJECT TYPES, but so far it has not
appeared as an alarm in the Alarm disposition.
Is anybody using ZfS to monitor ESX, if so how?
I can email/post the updated VMWARE-TRAPS-MIB if that would be any help.

After further investigation, it seems that this is not ESX alerts, it is
rfom Virtual Centre. I have copied the MIB from the VC box and have
compiled them - initial analysis looks good!

Zen Vision: M Voice recorder feature for school quest

Hello guys. I am very close to purchasing a Zen Vision: M 30GB MP3 Player.
My main concern is with the Voice Recording function since i wish to record
school lectures.
Will anyone who owns one of these or has direct information, please discuss this with me?
] How clear are the recordings? I'm planning to record 2-3 hour lectures at a time
2] I've been hearing there is a faint noise due to the hard-disk of the unit, does it present an issue?
3] How is the battery life, in terms of recording?
Any additional information you have dealing with recording, will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
~Dimitriy

Go to "Music Library" then select "Artists" and to your desired artist.

Creative zen micro line-in recordi

I read a review of the zen micro at CNET.com, and their short video clip tells me that the zen micro has line-in recording. However, nowhere does it state/mention that feature in the zen micro homepage, nor is it mentioned in any other site. I would just like to confirm that the zen micro doesn't have line-in recording...

Yep, the CNET.COM video review did mention about a line-in recording function. But maybe because that video was recorded way before the Zen Micro was actually launched, therefore there was a mix up in information. And so no, Creative Zen Micro does not have a line-in recording function. However, the Zen Neeon and Zen Nano Plus does have line-in recording if you're interested =)
