Sound distortion while burning d

I'm getting sound distortion when trying to encode/burn dvds. I'm using the Creative SB0240 Audigy 2 sound card. I tried several different dvd programs like dvdshrink, dvd x copy xpress. They're the two I mainly use. I tried changing my volume settings and still nothing. It's really irritating me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sound distorted while playing music on p6803w. pc

SOUND IS DISTORTED ON MY P6803W. BOUGHT NEW IN JUNE THIS YEAR WAS OK UNTIL LAST WEEK. HELP!!! DO I NEED TO CHANGE OUT SOUND CARD?

hi

Why am I getting sound distortion when connecting iPad 2 to amplifier.

I am getting sound distortion when connecting iPad or iPod thru amplifier using AirPlay or 3.5mm to rca cables. Also the sound has far too much bass. No problems when connected in car.

It sounds like a mismatched impedence. What are you connecting to? the output from the jack is intended for headphones, and is not just an audio out.
Try turning the volume on the pad way down, and use the gain on your amp, and see if that minimizes the issue.
There is a pure audio signal for both channels on the 31 pin plug, but you would need a special cable to use it. I would bet they are available if you google. Although I have read that the 31 pin signal is not filtered like the headphone output, so while it is a pure audio output, there may be some noise in it that would need to be filtered.
Try google for a 31 pin cable. ( the input for the car is probably built to take a signal from a headphone output, while your amp may be expecting a lower power signal)

HELP! Why is the music sounding distorted

Hi there, so i put on all music on the ipod, and two days later it is sounding all distorted and garbled, do i have to take it all off and start again? This ipod nano sure has its imperfections...thanx

The equalizer might be on.
On the nano, even if the equalizer is set to off in the iPod settings, the equalizer setting in iTunes is used. If you have a track in iTunes with a custom EQ set to, say, "rock" the iPod will use rock. It may sound fine though the computer speakers but not so good though the earbuds.
Not all iPods are consistent about how they use the per track EQ settings from iTunes. On a 5G iPod, for example, setting the EQ on the iPod to off means it plays everything flat.
You could try setting the EQ on the iPod nano to "flat" while the song in question is playing. If that clears it up you should set that song to use a flat EQ in iTunes. Then it will always play like that on the nano.
Most modern music doesn't need equalization and adding it usually makes music sound distorted and garbled.

IO-Link RF Output Bass sounds distorted

Hi, Having just recieved a new SKY+HD box after my trusty white box finally conked out, I've had to fit an IO-link RF box to get my other TV (using a magic eye) working. I got this all set up and working easily enough, but for one thing: The sound distorts badly on loud low frequency sounds (eg during bass sounds in background music or rumbling sound effects). I've seen this problem mentioned on this board and various others, but I haven't been able to find a solution. I'm now on my third IO box having tried the Global one from SKY; the triax one and another cheaper model. I've tried changing/retuning the RF channel on my TV to no effect. There seems to be no way of adjusting the output volume from the Sky box or the input volume on the TV. I've tried connecting a short cable in case my cabling was faulty (although it worked fine with my old Sky box) Does anyone know how to fix this?

Hi, The problem I'm having is with low bass sounds becoming distorted (clicky/raspy) on my second TV while using a IO-link box with Magic eye TV-link set up. Eg. while watching 'Penny Dreadful' the other night there was a loud heartbeat sound effect used in the program which distorted badly, that's the sort of sound that seems to be affected. My Magic eye TV-link set up is very simple, there are no splitters or amplifiers, just a shortish (<10m) coaxial cable between the IO-link and the Magic eye. Everything was working fine with my old white Sky+ box, it's just changing to a new Sky+HD wi-fi box and introducing the IO-link thats changed. (as I said in my previous post, I have tried 3 different IO-link boxes) Further to my original post I have also tried updating the sky box software and switching off my wi-fi router (in case of interference) all to no effect. I've tried loads of RF channels (recomended ones and at random). The actual signal on my other TV is actually quite strong; the picture is very good; the sound is very clear apart from the low base distortion; the Magic eye changes channels no problem. Any ideas? I've can't think of anything else to try...

Audio distortion in Burned DVD's

I posted this in iDVD, but think it may be an iMovie issue since I didn't have the problem using the iLife 6 apps.
Anyway, just looking for some answers/thoughts.
So I get some distortion, what sounds like maxed volume through crappy speakers when I now that I use iMovie 08, iDVD 08 and Garageband (forced to use because I want custom chapter markers) & I have had the same audio distortion with several projects using various downloaded (amazon) mp3's or LAME rips 224 kbps or higher. I checked the dvd on my PS3 to Pioneer plasma...sounds distorted. Other computers and "simple DVD" players the song is high but can't tell the distortion.
So here's what I'm trying to answer
Is it my PS3-Pioneer TV?
How does the normalization in iMovie work? Does garageband undo it?
Here's why I ask...I set the volume levels for 75% on all music tracks then normalized and exported, loaded in Gband, added chapters and re-exported using share to disk. I saw something speed by that looked liked it said normalizing, and was wondering what that does to the track that is supposedly already normalized.
I plan on running a few tests so that I don't have deal with this again.
I have re-done the audio without normalization, but volume at 75%. I'll import this direct to idvd...test
same thing only run through gband then idvd..test
Any help/info is appreciated...
PS..I usually burn on TDK DVD-R's

Volume will control the sound from the main Video track. I usually set it at either 100% or 0%, but no reason you cant use other settings.
The Ducking feature controls the volume of the music tracks, extracted tracks, and voiceovers as a percentage of the volume of the main track.
So 100% in Ducking means main track and music track have same volume.
15% ducking means music track is 15% of volume of main track. 0% ducking means that music track is silent.

My audiobooks sound distorted and I cannot listen to them - the voice echoes

Hi - I recently purchased a few audiobooks onto my ipod nano 6G and they were all fine for a while and suddenly they sound distorted like the voices are echoeing - please can you let me know how I can fix this problem as I really enjoy listening to audiobooks.
Thank you.

Is it on mute? What IOS do you have?
IOS 7.0+: open control center (swipe from under to top) and tap on the bell.
Or, if it has the lock button instead if the bell, switch the switch on your iPad to unmute / mute
IOS 6 and under: Go to settings>General> USE SIDE SWITCH TO and click mute.
Then switch the switch. You're unmuted.
If it still doesn't work, go to a repair shop or apple so they can change the speakers of your iPad.
~sincerely,
Ab

Hi,
I have problem with sound. Sometimes there is sound distortion short while (it is about half second and sounds like it is cycling). Please help me.
I have Toshiba Satellite U500-17E with Windows 7 HOME PREMIUM.
Thanks

Hi, so I downloaded Nvidia and Realtek audio drivers and install it. It had no affect. Then I noticed that there is 4 Nvidia same drivers and only diference is that in propeties is location(0), location(1), location(2), location(3) so I unistalled three Nvidia sound drivers.Also turn on high performance.Still not fix.I don't know why there were so much drivers because I didn't make any changes in drivers.Also I didn't know if it is normal that there are Nvidia and Realtek drivers and not only one audio driver.
If you have any ideas please let me know.
Thanks

Songs sound distorted

I have a 4gb Ipod mini. Over this past week, I have noticed that when I had a single song or a playlist that consisted of about 20 songs on repeat for a long period of time (usually overnight while I sleep), the songs end up sounding distorted. When I connect my Ipod to my computer charger, the songs that were distorted are also distorted on Itunes. Anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?

I'll add another voice to the chorus. Windows XP, SP3, somewhat older ship set in the box. Same problem.
10.4 was running fine then when I upgraded to 10.5 it sounds tinny and squeaky. For those into radio, it sounds like a slightly off frequency station on sideband. Some of my music sounds like R2D2. All of my other playes such as WMP, VLC, and others work fine so it is not my sound card. It sounds like a codec or speed issue or both. Also it is not just the songs resident on my hard drive. When I tried some of the streaming radio channels the sound was the same - broken - so this is serious.
I ran the repair utility from the program installer to no avail. I also did a complete uninstall and deleted all of the bits and pieces elsewhere on the hard drive and cleaned the registry to try a fresh install but got the same results.
I then cleaned the system again and went back to 10.4 and all is working fine for me. However my house cleaning did remove some preferences and a few other things within settings but I wanted to make sure that I had a clean start. The sacrifice is liveable.
Clearly there is a problem and as noted elsewhere in this forum, other people are starting to speak up to reflect the same issue.
I pitty the person who is not adept at downgrading and just blindly accepts upgrades when offered.
Steve... send help from where ever you are.
Unknown if this will be of concern... I also upgraded Safari to the latest at about the same time. That should not have an impact but one never knows. Safari seems to be running OK.

I got an error message while burning a cd in itunes - "The attempt to burn a disc failed. The burn failed because of a medium write error. What is that and how can i fix it?t

I got an error message while burning a CD in iTunes - "the attempt to burn a disc failed. The burn failed because of a medium write error." What does this mean and how do I fix it?

The disk you are using probably has a defect, not uncommon on consumer grade disks. Try another disk or better yet another disk from a different manufacturer or at least a different batch.

Animated GIF image gets distorted while playing.

Hi,
I have some animated gif images which I need to show in a jLabel and a jTextPane. But some of these images are getting distorted while playing in the two components, though these images are playing properly in Internet Explorer. I am using the methods insertIcon() of jTextPane and setIcon() of jLabel to add or set the gif images in the two components. Can you please suggest any suitable idea of how I can get rid of this distortion? Thanks in advance.

In the code below is a self contained JComponent that paints a series of BufferedImages as an animation. You can pause the animation, and you specify the delay. It also has two static methods for loading all the frames from a File or a URL.
Feel free to add functionality to it, like the ability to display text or manipulate the animation. You may wan't the class to extend JLabel instead of JComponent. Just explore around with the painting. If you have any questions, then feel free to post.
The downside to working with an array of BufferedImages, though, is that they consume more memory then a single Toolkit gif image.

Thank you. This has worked, but I don't know why as it isn't anything I didn't do the last time. What a difference a day makes.
Once again, thank you for taking the time to help.

An error occurred while burning the disc.

I tried to burn some stuff onto a DVD today with my PowerBook. Here's the info on the burner:
MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-845E:
Manufacturer: MATSHITA
Model: MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-845E
Revision: DMP2
Serial Number:
Drive Type: CD-RW/DVD-RW
Disc Burning: Apple Supported/Shipped
Removable Media: Yes
Detachable Drive: No
I bought some DVD's on sale at Radio Shack, and when I tried to burn a movie and a few photos onto a disc, the progress bar showed it starting to burn, then it stopped and I got this message:
"An error occurred while burning the disc. This disc cannot be used."
A little research here at the Apple forum brought me to this site:
http://www.digitalfaq.com/media/dvdmedia.htm
And after downloading a little program called DVD Media Inspector, I was able to classify the DVD's I had bought as:
"4TH CLASS MEDIA:
Pathetic garbage media, landfill material, about 0-50% success rate...."
OK, off to Mega Lo Mart, where I bought some nice, expensive Maxell DVD's.
Media Inspector doesn't see my fancy new DVD's. When I try to burn stuff using the Finder, I get the same result as before.
Getting desperate at that point, I located and downloaded updated firmware for my model of Matshita superdrive. I'm not sure what firmware is, and there was a free range one and a standard one, so I went for the standard one. There were dire warnings in the readme file about "flashing" a superdrive being on the same risk level as open heart surgery. I flashed my superdrive. (You can say that here, and it's not dirty.)
I also tried burning using iDVD, and after much preparation, it started to burn, then spit out the DVD. I tried three of the landfill DVD's and two of the Maxell ones. I'm out of things to try. Any ideas?
I have never tried burning DVD's before. Am I doing something wrong?

I tried again using iDVD's One-Step DVD making feature. It will let you make a one step from a movie file, and I had a .dv version of the movie I want to burn.
It encoded video for a while, encoded audio for a little while, then started to burn. The superdrive made some noises, then the DVD was ejected and I got an error message saying:
"Burning Finished
Errors were found during the burning process"
I hit OK (though it really wasn't OK) and got another error message box. This one said:
"Multiplexer error
(some message about multiplexing problem)"
The message didn't make sense to me, and I was unable to remember it. What's a multiplexer? I would have guessed an avid movie-goer, but somehow I think that is not it.

Error while burning itunes playlist

I've burned many discs in the past from itunes playlists. However, now I am getting an error. The songs are successfully copied to the disc, but when I drag the disc icon to the trash (where the burn symbol shows up) it seems to start to work but then I get the following error, "An error occured while burning disc. This disc cannot be used." I tried several different discs CD-R and CD-RW. I tried using disc utility to burn. I CAN burn other files like word documents etc. It seems to just be songs that won't burn. I recently updated to itunes 7. Any advice?

Please note, I have read through all the trouble shooting help. I have the preferences set to burn "audio CD" which seems to be the problem for others. aaargh! Really frustrated!
