[SOLVED]Mocp and Sound in general

Here is what happens when I type mocp into terminal
[daniel@arch ~]$ mocp
Can't load plugin libffmpeg_decoder: file not found
Can't load plugin libwavpack_decoder: file not found
Running the server...
Trying JACK...
Trying ALSA...
Trying OSS...
FATAL_ERROR: No valid sound driver!
FATAL_ERROR: Server exited!
[daniel@arch ~]$
And trying to have sound play out of my speakers does not work. The only way I can listen to music is if I attach headphones through either the front speaker port or the back speaker port on my desktop tower, but the second I connect my speakers to it, I don't hear anything.
Any ideas?

Dude, seriously, what exactly are you asking? I hope you know at least, that ncmpcpp is a frontend for mpd, so you'll have to setup mpd first. Look into the wiki how to do it. When mpd runs, you can launch ncmpcpp and browse your music etc.
Next time you have a question, please don't just ask "Any help?" without providing ANY information what's not working for you etc. That's just rude. You can't expect us to do everything for you.
You're right. I did try a bunch of different things, I was just too lazy to write them all down. Sorry!
But in the end, I had to set a default audio driver. I thought I did, but I had to make it stick using a config file.
Sorry everyone but thanks!

Headphone jack on S55 and sound in general is too low

I cannot get the headphone jack on my brand new S55 to work properly. Even on full blast it is, at best, 50% I just set up this laptop and really don't want to return it. Any suggestions? I have no computer saavy so will need explicit directions.

[SOLVED] Zynaddsubfx and qwerty keyboard

Hello guys and girls!
I have a little trouble with zynaddsubfx For a long time I was having fun with Zynaddsubfx and his awesome synths. I don't have any real musical (midi or usb, no matter) keyboard and i played sounds with general qwerty keyboard. Zynaddsubfx previously worked on windows port and some other linux-based distros on my computer (for years never modified). But now here on Arch I can't play sounds with pc keyboard . Zynaddsubfx doesn't respond on almost all keys, except "6" and "7". But it is catastrophically small amount of keys to play with
I have installed Archlinux x64 and here the list of installed packages:
zynaddsubfx 2.4.1-1
alsa-firmware 1.0.23-1
alsa-lib 1.0.23-1
alsa-oss 1.0.17-1
alsa-utils 1.0.23-2
gnome-alsamixer 0.9.6-3
alsa-plugins 1.0.23-1
lib32-alsa-lib 1.0.23-2 (lib32)
lib32-alsa-plugins 1.0.23-2 (lib32)
jack 0.118.0-3
timidity++ 2.13.2-9
fluidsynth 1.1.1-2
I think the problem is wrong keymap(?) But i don't know where to fix it
And, please, don't tell me things like "go and buy some serious stuff (midi keyboard, real synthesizer etc etc)" bcause I am not a musician and I am just having fun with Zynaddsubfx.
Thanks in advance

Haha, I found a solution
It is simple as Arch must to be
Launch [System -> Settings -> Keyboard], then move english keymap to up until english keymap will be first in the keymap's list. And wow, now zynaddsubfx works like in good old days
Thanks to all, problem officially solved
P.S yes, of course when i click piano keys with mouse sound appears

[SOLVED]Problem with sound in HDMI

Hello good society of Arch
Now I have problems with sound from HDMI. I use Arch as an tvPc, wasting movies and tv shows on it. I use ALSA and it works well, except of a few files that I have, then there is picture but sound is either twisted or not played at all. It does not matter whether I use vlc or mplayer, I'm experiencing the same problem.
I have not found anything about this with google, other problems have been either hdmi sound working or not, not like it is with me, sometimes it works and sometimes it don't.
I know that the files are ok, I can play them in anther pc I have (also using Arch on that pc).
Does anybody know what the problem might be? What do I have to look at to find out what the problem is? This have been like this for some time now, but I haven't looked into it before, because I don't use TV that muts, but the wife does and when she stats blaming Arch, I have too do something about it.
I have never encountered problem with Arch that i cant solve by using this forum and google
Thanks

Disappointed in CS6 and Adobe in general

I am more and more disappointed in CS6 and Adobe in general. I no longer have any respect for Adobe or their products.
I can't read the new title editing function in Premiere CS6 (it was fine in CS5). Somebody here said you can make it bigger: No you can't. You can make the box bigger like a picture frame around the edit, but the text is still unchanged and unreadable. Soundbooth was usable as a wave editor, Audition is not. Installed on an AMD machine, Premiere Pro CS6 imports Nikon video as audio and after more than a month of playing with it Adobe's India supper support still doesn't have a clue.
Dreamweaver CS5 Ste files won't fully import into CS3 or CS5 (it can't read the FTP user/pass), my install of Encore CS6 is missing all the menu templates and buttons so I go back to CS5, and I was totally disappointed that CS6 won't edit in 3D. The After Effects work around for 3D is a joke.
The Master Collection download install file is just a little too large to fit a backup on any DVD. How inconvenient! The first one kept asking for "Disk 2 - English/Japan". It would be nice if they got it right before releasing it to the public.
Finally frustrated with the idiocy of Adobe, I bought Grass Valley Edius 6.5. When I called GV for a minor issue I got an office in the USA on the second ring and a quick, correct answer. Everybody there speaks clear English. The Edius product simply works (it's been a broadcast news editoring standard for years) and I can also edit 3D. I can actually see titles when I'm editing them. It imports any file I want correctly, including the Nikon files that Premiere CS6 can't. It has all the functions that Premiere does, including good stabilization, and a few that Premiere does not.
And Grass Valley Edius is a product from Japan!
Wake up Adobe, your ship is sinking fast into the Indian Sea and I'm sailing in the other direction.

I had another adventure today. Learning from this forum that the menus and buttons missing from Encore CS6 were in a "missing items" update, I downloaded and installed the update only to find there were still no backgrounds, no buttons and only a few "menus". So I contacted Adobe Chat Support. I was put in contact with Rahul.
I filled in form indicating that the missing files update did not contain very many missing files.
Rahul asked what the error message was.
I said there was no error, that Encore CS6 after installing the update still contained no backgrounds or buttons.
Rahul asked for the serial number. I provided it.
Then Rahul asked what the error message was.
Rahul is not paying attention.
3 cents per hour would be overpayed for Rahul.
Rahul is not unlike all the others I've encounter with Adobe's outsourced support. They don't pay attention. They simply don't understand plain English. They are robots.
Adobe is not saving anything by hiring people who act like robots and accomplish nothing. They are only alienating customers. (Double meaning on the word "alienating")
Two other "Rahuls" wasted hours doing the same things over and over by remote into my computer trying to figure out the AVI files that came up as audio only, and they solved nothing.

Only iTunes shows up in the Music and Sound media browser

I just upgraded to FCP 10.1 and I'm noticing that the media browser only show iTunes content in Music and Sound. No sound effects (foley, etc.) are included as before.
Is this simply that FCP no longer includes these or should there be something other than iTunes there?

Thanks Tom. After a few reboots, music is back. Thanks again. Looking for the "solved" button and nothing. I will marked solved when I am able to.
Thanks again.
Best.

ISight problem... works initially; then photo dissolves and sound slows too

I have a MacBook pro with built in camera; my daughter has an imac with iSight camera unit. We can do iChats via AIM, and used to have no trouble, but lately, the iChat runs for about one minute, at which point the picture I am seeing begins to deteriorate into squares, and slows down; I lose normal action and sound as well... although my daughter and granddaughter can still see and hear me. Any suggestions on solving this problem

Hi
First has your daughter set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps(dont use automatic)
In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to 500.
Restart iChat.

Since IOS 6 update, malfunction with auto rotate and sounds

Hello. I'm wondering if others have experienced a problem since updating their IPads. Since the update, I've lost the dual functionality of auto-rotate and sounds. I can only have 1 of the functions operate as per norm. If I want sounds (for keyboard clicks/games/etc.) my screen will not auto orient. Vice versa for auto orientation. Normal rotation is only possible with NO SOUND for the previously mentioned apps. I've performed reboots, and also endeavoured to make the obvious corrections in the General Settings fields. When I uncheck "MUTE"...it automatically places a checkmark in the lock rotation field!!!
Can anyone offer a solution, to what i perceive, as a software issue?

Maybe this will help.
If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Movieclips - best compression formats and filesize in general for Keynote?

I have experienced the same problems as many others in this forum with playing QT movies in keynote. My mpeg-2 will not even import now in Leopard 10.5 and KN 4.0.1.
I would likt to know if someone has tried out what QT compatible formats looks best and runs best in general in keynote when exporting from FCP via compressor? I have quite a few movies in an upcoming presentation.
Mpeg-2 doesn't import at the moment in Leopard, it works fine in Tiger 10.4.10 though.
It seems to me that anything with the extention .mov will a least run in Leopard.
The point where the file size becomes problem?
Has anyone tried if creating multiple KN documents and then link from one to the next works better than stacking movieclips in the same document?
Any information on avoiding stuttering clips and sounds also for that matter would be highly appreciated.
Henrik

I'm also experiencing stuttered playback of movies in Keynote when they play fine in the Quicktime player. Does anyone have suggestions for ideal compressor, data rate, file size?

Hello arindamd and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Sorry to hear you're having an issue with the sound on your device.
To rule out a software issue, backup your data (see KB12487 How to back up the data on a BlackBerry smartphone) then follow the steps in KB11320 How to perform a clean reload of the BlackBerry Device Software for Windows or KB19915 Perform a clean reload of BlackBerry smartphone application software using BlackBerry Desktop Software on a Mac computer).
Before any software is restored test the sound recorder.
If no sound is recorded then it's likely the issue may be a hardware one in which case you will need to contact your point of sale for hardware repair options.
Hope this helps.

Will not print - feeds paper and sounds right but nothing on paper.

Recently printed resumes and everything was fine. Replaced ink cartridges and now when we attempt to print something, the paper feeds thru the printer and sounds like its printing but nothing shows up on the paper when it comes out. When printing from e-mail, it will print the heading (to, from, subject, etc) but nothing in the body of the emaila prints. I have aligned print heads and cleaned print heads but still nothing. Any ideas on what the problem could be?
This question was solved.

After I replied that the attempts didnt work, I attempted cleaning and aligning printheads again. This time it worked like a charm. Many thanks for your assistance, you have my neverending heartfelt appreciation.

Macbook air Wi Fi and sound stops every time it goes to sleep. i have to restart it every time to use wifi and sounds. this started happening just after the latest upgrade to OS X. any reasons why its doing that and how to fix it.

Test after taking each of the following steps. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved.
2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly."
3. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
4. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.
5. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
6. In some cases, the problem has been resolved by repairing permissions on the startup volume.
7. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
8. Reinstall OS X.

Kevin is suggesting that you store the projects you create while working through his book in a folder called RoboHelpProjects. It is not where you have to store every project you ever create.That is for the purposes of his book.
RoboHelp initially defaults to My RoboHelp Projects but it's up to you whether you do. Generally on the forums we advise against that as it is part of your profile and can result in excessively long path names in a few cases. Generally where authors create file names that are so long they almost serve as the content.
Projects always have a root folder, call them Project 1 and Project 2 for this purpose. You can have those folders directly off your C drive (or other local partition) or within in a parent folder as above.
Now to what you can and cannot do. You can delete a whole project by selecting Project 1 or Project 2 in Windows Explorer. Obviously if you delete the parent folder you will delete all your projects within.
What you must not do is delete individual files within a project using Windows Explorer, for that you use RoboHelp's Project Manager. The exception is if you go to Tools > Reports there is a report Unused Files. Files listed there will have to be deleted using Windows Explorer for the very good reason they do not appear in Project Manager and, therefore, cannot be deleted that way.
If you think about it, it is similar to Word. There is no option to delete a document there other than using File > Open and right clicking. Not very intuitive.
