Sat P10 Digital Audio/Buttons Problem.

My new Toshiba (Sat P10-873) laptop has buttons on the front of it for playing digital audio and CD's. I use the mode button to switch between audio CD and the music CD, the problem being then when I switch to digital audio, it opens up media player and plays the default "David Byrne" track, rather than my playlist. According to the manual it should play the last opoened playlist but this for some reason does not work. Every time i close media player and then press the play button, it loads media player and begins playing David Byrne. Any suggestions on how I could fix this? Do i have to put my playlist in a certain location? or the audio itself? Do I need to set an option some where? Thanks.

Well, I had only had the PC about half an hour at the time i was trying to do this so obviously no updates and no changes made at this time to the system.
I have however solved the problem myself so just incase anybody else needs to know:
The answer really was rather simple, for some reason, media player was saving my playlists under the "My Documents" folder of "Owner" rather than in my "My Documents" folder. I copied the playlist file from there and into my "My Music" folder and voila, everytime I switch to digital mode, it loads my playlist. Hope that made sense. Thanks for the help.

  • Flash CS3 Play/Stop audio button problem

    I made a play/stop audio button with this youtube tutorial (youtube.com/watch?v=XU6oMEFUFF8) but after the sound is finished I want the play button to show up agian.
    Here is the actionscript:
    import flash.events.MouseEvent;
    play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickha ndler);
    stop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickha ndler);
    function clickhandler(event:MouseEvent):void{
    swapChildren(play_btn,stop_btn);
    what code should I add to my current code?
    I also can send you the Fla.

    You should consider using the Sound class. Here's a quick overview of it:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/dev/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118a9b90204-7d21.html
    You'll be able to add event listeners to the sound to know when it completes so you can execute more code, such as swapping the play and stop button. There is an example in that overview of listening for the SOUND_COMPLETE event (e.g. channel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, onPlaybackComplete);). It should contain everything you need.
    A basic example of what you'll end up with (there's many ways to do it) might look something like this:
    // just set up and wait for click
    var isPlaying:Boolean = false;
    var mySound:Sound = new MySoundInLibrary();
    var myChannel:SoundChannel = new SoundChannel();
    myChannel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, onPlaybackComplete);
    // buttons
    play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickhandler);
    stop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,clickhandler);
    function clickhandler(event:MouseEvent):void
              swapChildren(play_btn, stop_btn);
              if (isPlaying)
                        isPlaying = false;
                        myChannel.stop();
              else
                        isPlaying = true;
                        myChannel = mySound.play();
    function onPlaybackComplete(e:Event):void
              isPlaying = false;
              swapChildren(play_btn, stop_btn);
    The basic idea is keeping a flag if the audio is currently playing. If it isn't then assign the sound to a channel and play it while setting the flag (isPlaying) to true. If it's already playing, set the flag to false and stop playing the audio.
    The swapChildren is run in the onPlaybackComplete() method so when the audio completes the play button is swapped back in front.
    Rather than swapping the children I'd urge you to toggle the .visible property instead. It's easy to run commands in the wrong order and get desynched on depth.

  • S12 Windows 7 Install -- Audio Button problems (Kalvin Klein?)

    Received my s12 a little over a week ago, and after adding another gig of ram, I decided to install W7 just to see how it would run.
    Long story short, it ran very satisfactory after some tweaking, and I decided to go with the solo install, and just ditched xp altogether.
    Everything works just fine, however the audio buttons don't work.....neither the hard buttons, or using the Fn + left/right arrows
    I could swear that it worked properly for the first day, but I must be mistaken.
    What's strange is that when attempting to use, I will get the OSD popup, indicating that it's muted, or when attempting to adjust up and down, it will only move down one notch (from 100%), however doesn't actually change the volume.
    I ran into Kalvin Klein's post about the realtek drivers, and after much slow downloading from the lenovo site, I installed them (178mb audio drivers is borderline ridiculous lol)
    sadly the situation is the same, and I was hoping that I'm just missing something stupid, or there is something I may be able to do.
    I don't particularly care, but it's nice to be able to quickly turn the volume down or mute it if I'm somewhere that doesn't care for loud sounds abruptly coming out of my comp.
    Suggestions?  Or am I just out of luck for the time being?
    Solved!

  • Digital audio output problem

    Hi All
    I have just bought a Mac Mini intel duo 1.83hz and a Hitachi plasma TV 42inch model 42PD9700.
    I have tried to link a toslink cable from the audio port on the mac mini to the TV . The TV has an 2 inputs for audio, a HDMI Audio jack and a RGB audio input.
    I have tried both ports but get no sound from the speakers in the TV
    The message in the system setting under the sound output tab shows
    1 Digital output : Port - Built in Output
    and settings for the selected device: The selected device has no putput controls
    I have used the following adaptors with each side of the toshlink cable
    http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=29296&TabID=1&C=KRS&U=MapAuto&doy=s earch&MenuName=Optical+Cable
    What am I doing wrong guys?
    thanks

    HDMI can carry audio, but a DVI (from the Mac mini) to HDMI cable will not carry audio, just video. So, you'll have to select a different connection. I'm a little confused by your description of the other audio-in option on the TV as "RGB" since that means Red-Green-Blue which could be an SCART video port. This review says the TV has "stereo audio inputs" which, I would guess, are a pair of red & white RCA connectors (an analog connection). You might need a mini-jack to RCA type "Y" cable to go from the Mac mini's headphone port and into the two RCA jacks. Something similar to this:
    http://www.pixmania.co.uk/uk/uk/187082/art/belkin/y-audio-cable-mini-jack.html
    The Mac will switch to "digital out" if you plug in a digital optical audio cable with one of those adapters but that doesn't mean the TV is receiving that signal. A digital optical audio cable will not carry analog audio to an RCA jack.

  • Toshiba 40FT2U Digital Audio Outout Problem

    I have this model (40FT2U) and am having difficulty connecting speakers to my device.  I know that this device only has a digital coax audio out for the sound, yet when I connect the speakers to this it does not transfer the sound from the device to the speakers.  I know that the speakers functions properly when connecting to another device.  Also the option for changing speakers on the television settings menu is locked on "tv speakers" and will not allow me to change the speakers.  Any advice on now to unlock this feature or how to change the speakers from "tv speakers" to something else?

    I attempted this too!  I am using a digital to analog converter  (sampling rate at 32,44.1,48 and 96KHz  a 24-bit S/PDIF incoming bit stream on left and right channels)
    i tried everything on the Toshiba, to no avail  I wish to do a firware update, but no site has one available
    What is the next step?!!!

  • Power Mac G4 Digital Audio Electrical Problem?

    My G4 has recently begun making a 'whinning' noise. I thought it was the hard drive going bad. I replaced the hard drive and within minutes the replacement began to hum [squeeech?] like the first. I obtained a replacement drive and within an hour the same problem developed. This time Maxtor/Seagate sent me a Seagate Barracuda drive.
    Last evening I installed the Seagate drive AND switched my power surge protector to a different electrical outlet. Booted my Mac and it ran fine for about an hour + and then it too started to whine...and continues as I write this.
    At work someone suggested it may be an electrical problem.
    Can anyone HELP ME???
    Also e-mail to me at: <Edited by Moderator>
    Thank You!

    Hi-
    I would venture a guess that a fan is making the noise. Are your fans dirty? Do they spin freely? Check the large case fan, behind the hard drive, and the fan in the power supply.
    Any wires going where they shouldn't?

    When i try to play something in Dolby Digital or other multichannel sound, all work fine, souds are played.
    After that, when I try to play something like iTunes, system sounds or fe. mp3 in VLC, I hear nothing, software looks like they play audio, but nothing go to amplituner.
    Only restart of my MB helps, to next try of digital (multichannel) audio.

  • 10.4.9 - Major audio problems with digital audio

    I have a Digital XMPCR radio with Edirol MA-20D Digital speakers
    I now have major audio problems, the audio is garbled and doesn't sound as strong. Kinda like a FM radio in a car that is loosing signal when you are traveling.
    I use this XMPCR for a couple of hours a day and had no problems this morning prior to installing the update.
    I have a XMPCR that was modified for Toslink/Digital connection. I connect the XMPCR to my Mac Pro 2.66 with toslink cables and connect my Edirol MA-20D digital speakers with toslink cables. I use Amoeba's "LineIn" for audio pass through.
    I thought it might me the FTDIUSBSerialDriver so I reinstalled it, did not fix the problem.
    I also have a real bad "buzzing" sound going on in the background. When I quit JXM (the application for changing channels on the XMPCR), the "buzzing" goes away but I have a rapid ticking sound coming out of the speakers until I quit LineIn.
    Anyone else have any problems with their digital audio input/outputs?

    I dont use the digital XMPCR radio, but I use Digital Performer to record audio and MIDI and I use exclusively the Built-In Audio input and Output and everything is working fine after the 10.4.9 Upgrade.

  • Digital audio problems on Satellite A300 (PSAGCA-06M01N)

    Hey,
    Only a few weeks ago I noticed my laptop is advertised with Digital audio. I looked through the Windows sound options, it told me it was in the front jack. After a lil' googleing I discovered mini-Toslink (3.5mm optical).
    I bought a cable, plugged it in, doesn't work.
    Made sure drivers were installed, everything seems to be fine there.
    Tested the cable in my friends computer, cable works.
    So now I don't know where to go from here?
    To me it seems as though the jack or plug inside is broken, because when I plug a normal headphone plug into the port it pops a message stating something just got plugged in, it however does not do this with the optical cable.
    Has anyone got there HD Audio working on any similar Toshiba? Or does anyone have any ideas as to why It may not be working?
    Thanks for any help!

    I assume you are using the right cable;
    Check this:
    +No digital audio out on my Headphone - S/P-DIF jack+
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSD57013M000UR01.htm
    If you are using the right cable then you should try to update the Realtek sound driver.
    The newest one can be downloaded from the Realtek page directly.
    You should also go to device manager and should update the Intel high definition audio it should be placed in sound, video, and game controllers
    Additionally update the Microsoft UAA Bus driver for high definition audio.
    Let windows search for the updates automatically. Should work
    Then reboot the unit and check the digital output again

  • [Solved] Difficulty getting digital audio to play in all applications

    This is probably a noobish question...
    My motherboard supports digital audio out via S/PDIF cable (optical), as well as standard analog audio. I have a stereo receiver that I've plugged my optical cable into.
    When I go to systemsettings > Multimedia > Phonon > Audio Playback, I put the "HDA Intel S/PDIF Digital" device on top and clicked Test. I could hear the test tone (playback source is PCM).
    However, if I go to play an MP3 or whatever, I have to go into the settings for each application and tell it to use that particular device. Some applications (such as Firefox) do not have obvious settings for audio playback. Is there a way to solve the problem once and for all (tell the audio system "send everything through the digital device all the time")?
    (I read the relevant section of the wiki, but it is focused on getting sound out of your digital device, not making it the default.)
    Any other advice or gotchas about using digital audio would also be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    I'm testing output by going to systemsettings > Multimedia > Phonon and clicking the Test button with "HDA Intel (AD198x Digital)" selected. Nothing comes out through SPDIF, though it does play through analog (I have two separate pairs of headphones plugged in, one to the analog jack and one to a headphone amp plugged through the digital port) so I can tell which port the audio is coming from).
    I've checked the hardware volume, and it appears to be in order. The amp is not reporting any audio signal on the optical port. I tried switching out the cable just to be paranoid, and still nothing. I believe this is a software problem.
    Any ideas?

  • Won't Change Back to Regular Audio After Setting "Encoded Digital Audio"

    I have a first generation Mac Pro, and I've just recently upgraded to Lion. I used to play a fair bit of DVDs on the computer, but recently I've slacked off doing that. Today I popped in a DVD to play and then opened DVD Player up. Everything worked fine as it was supposed to. I've got the DVD player set to send digital audio out so I can get surround sound through my receiver. When I quit DVD player I don't get sound anymore through the optical out unless it's encoded digital audio. I've had that problem before, and to solve it I'd go to Audio Midi Setup and change the format to what it was prior to being set to "Encoded Digital Audio" by DVD Player. However, now with the upgrade to Lion it will not switch back. The option to do it is there, and I can click on 16, 20, or 24bit audio all day long and I won't get audio output from that port unless I restart the computer.
    This is obviously a system bug that needs to be reported to Apple if they aren't aware of it already, but what I'm wanting to know is how can I avoid restarting to get audio back? Restarting Core Audio doesn't do the trick as I've already tried that.

    From the iPod's Main Menu choose Videos -> Settings and make sure TV Out is set to Off.
    Otherwise, try a hard reset as well.  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • Macbook 2008 no audio from speakers - can't disable digital audio - red light in headphone jack

    Looking for help with this problem, that seems like a lot of people had in the past and still have, but I see that a couple of discussions on it here have been archived. Too bad, as the problem continues.
    I seem to be having the same problem with my late 2008 white 2.1Ghz Macbook.
    I had used earphones a few times with movies and iTunes, with no problems. Now I've just rebooted to find that I have no audio from internal speakers (the boot up chime works though). Earphones work perfectly.
    There is a constant red light in the earphone jack. The volume icon in the top menu bar is greyed out. In the Sound preference panel, Built-in Speakers are not available as an option for audio out. The only option is Digital Audio. If I connect earphones, then they are available as the only option.
    I have tried all the various methods that people have recommended, to switch off digital audio through the earphone jack: trying to flip the little switch with a toothpick, paper clip, etc., as well as cleaning around inside the jack with a bit of rubbing or cleaning alcohol; also tried inserting and removing the earphones plug several times, while pushing the volume buttons on the keyboard. Nothing works.
    I did get something from inserting/removing the earphone plug, as I seemed to be able to adjust volume from the keyboard, but I never got sound out from the speakers; the volume window seemed to indicate increase/decrease volume as I pressed the keys, but after a few seconds the volume window greyed out again with the No Entry symbol.
    Trying to flip the digital audio switch in the jack occasionally gets the red light to turn off for a couple seconds, but then it comes back on.
    Is there any particular problem with this that can't be solved by the aforementioned methods, that many people have used to solve it in a simple manner? Could my problem be more serious? Is there anything I could do if I opened up the Macbook, e.g., somehow to manually turn off the digital audio switch?
    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Got it fixed with a small flathead screwdriver with a fairly wide blade. Opened iTunes, started playing songs, had red light in headphone jack, as per usual with this problem.
    Put screwdriver in jack, with blade more or less vertical, started moving it around inside of jack in clockwise motion, pressing pretty firmly. Took just a couple of "swirls" around the inside of the jack and then audio finally turned on! Was a bit of a hassle, but finally worked.
    Many thanks to all for their suggestions.
    P.S. re. advice not to use metal object. This was the only way I was finally able to solve the problem (i.e., using the small screwdriver). I didn't see where using a metal object would be a problem, seeing as the headphone plug itself is metal. Anyway, it worked.

    Powermac G4 Digital audio   Mac OS X (10.4)  

    Hi, profclimber!
    For successful installation of OS X 10.2 or later, your Mac must have firmware updated to version 4.2.8. To check for this, boot to open firmware (depress and hold cmdoption+of at startup). When the command line screen appears, the firmware version will appear on the top line of the screen. To exit open firmware afterwards, simply power down with the power button, or enter "mac-boot" at the screen prompt, followed by pressing the Return key, which will restart the Mac. If the firmware is not up-to-date, go here for the installation instructions and download. Please note that if a firmware update is necessary, it must be installed using OS 9.1 (or a version of OS 9 later than OS 9.1 which has been installed on a drive in the Mac, versus being run directly from a disc or run over a network, etc).
    In order to successfully install Tiger, you should be using a (black) retail install disc. (Gray) OEM discs shipped with a different model computer will very likely cause problems.
    Before installing Tiger, use Disk Utility's Erase option to reformat the startup drive drive using the Mac OS Extended format. In that window, you'll see a button named "Security Options...". Click on it and check the box to overwrite zeros to the drive. Overwriting zeros will take some time, but will insure that your hard drive is clean of any old data artifacts which could possibly interfere with your install. It will also map out any bad sectors which may on the drive, preventing possible data corruption when you do the fresh install of Tiger.
    I'd recommend disconnecting any third-party peripheral devices you may have attached when doing the install. When your installation is complete, you might launch Disk Utility and Run Repair Permissions on the startup volume before running Software Update. Do the same before any subsequent runs of Software Update and run it once more after your system software is completely updated.

  • How to reset PMU in Digital Audio G4?

    Are there any procedures required other than powering down, disconnecting all leads, opening the case and pressing the PMU button (located on mobo with "S1" marked next to it ) ??
    I can not find any tech articles on resetting the PMU on a Digital Audio G4 Power Mac despite doing numerous searches.
    Thanks

    Hello Murray and Thomas,
    On my dual HD, dual boot DA, I had a similar problem following an unsuccessful attempt to install a flashed PC Geforce 3 video card.
    Wouldn't boot in OSX at all, would boot in OS9 only if I unplugged the OSX(10.3) HD and set the startup disk from the OS9 install CD.
    Reset the pmu, no help; repaired permissions, no help; ran disk first aid - DFA said fine; ran Disk Warrior - DW said fine; I could see all drives - I just couldn't boot. All I got was the Apple prohibitory sign - the "No Parking" sign.
    Solution was tu reinstall OSX. Install went smoothly and have had no problems since.
