Sound is off Help!!!!

Hi,
I have a HP Pavilion dvd4-2145dx entertainment notebook.  I was fooling around with the microphone settings in my control/sound panel, and now i have no sound from my speakers.  I think I've changed a setting that has to do with adding a headphone/earphone by usb hook up I was trying to use.  I also have a headphone hookup for the front with the regular pronged microphone.  I thought I was setting my computer up to accept both, but I messed something up and  I can't figure out which setting I used and need to go back to correct it.  I admittedly did this once before and did a recovery, but I found out afterwards that wasn't necessary.  So I'm at a loss as to how to correct it now.  Can anyone help me with this?   Thank you so much!!!!!!

Hi;
You didn't provide info on what operating system you are using, but the simplest thing to do to get your sound working before you tried changing the settings is to run the System Restore utility found in Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7.
You should select a restore point date which is before, but closest to the time your computer was running normally before you changed the sound settings.
This is not a system recovery, it will bring your PC back to the point where the audio was working correctly.
How to use System restore is below: Also see the frequently asked questions on the right side of the web page for more info.

  • Sound drops off when using hdmi outport to connect computer to an AV reciever

    Satellite M640,I5 2410 processor, windows 7HP. After about three minutes the sound drops off when connected to the av reciever through the hdmi outport. If I touch the trackpad the computer reconnects for another three minutes and  then disconnects. If I touch the the trackpad about every two minutes the computer stays connected indefinetly. This problem does not occur if I use the computer to play an audio CD. Any fix suggestions.

  • Embedded Sounds Cut off Early

    This is a repost of a question I oriinally posted here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11321441/embedded-sounds-cut-off-early .
    I figure this is one someone who knows the compiler part of Flash intimately will need to answer (if there is a good answer--if not I probably need to file a bug report).
    I have a combined Flash Builder/Flash Pro project. Because of the hassles involving in maintaining sound assets on the timeline, my sounds are all embedded into Class files, like:
    [Embed (source="/mp3/Welcome_01_V.mp3", mimeType="audio/mpeg")]
    private static const WELCOME_1:Class;
    These files are then referenced by the base Classes for the symbols that need them, embedded for Actionscript on Frame 10 (because the second frame label is on Frame 10 to give space for you to read the first one).
    What I'm finding is that a few of these Sounds don't play all the way through, but the SoundChannel dispatches the "soundComplete" event, and its final position matches the Sound's length.
    All sounds are converted from wav to mp3 at 44kHz / 16 kbps using dbPowerAmp. I faked out the compiler to avoid a reference to Flex by including a dummy SoundAsset that extends Sound.
    I don't know what other steps to take to debug this. Is there a way to figure out whether the problem is on the compile side or on the run side?
    More things I have tried:
    Looked at the Size report: The nonworking sounds were smaller in their embedded form than the source mp3
    Got rid of my own BitmapAsset and let Flash link in the Flex Framework and do whatever that does (definitely worse)
    Dropped the encoding from 44 kHz to 22 kHz (no improvement or worse)
    Dropped the bit rate to 8kbps (the lowest dbPowerAmp, the tool I use, supports). This usually helps somewhat, but I still usually use a word or two from the end of the file
    Dropped both parameters in the encoding. This helped a few that just dropping the bit rate didn't, but not all files. Plus it sounds tinny.
    Note that the file size and length of the Flash file does not seem to be what causes this--I have had 50k+ files that did fine, yet had a problem with files < 20k.
    Thanks!

    Have you tried disabling Omnisphere, just for a test, to see if the problem is occurring with just the built-in plug-ins?  Another thing to try, if you haven't already done so go ahead and display the CPU meter.. you to this in the app's Display preference pane. Then double click on the CPU side of the meter in the toolbar. This will open a CPU monitoring window... and you can instantly see how much CPU each plug-in is using... assuming it's a CPU overload that's causing it.
    Not sure if this is how you are using it, but if for instance you play something with Patch A and when you switch to Patch B you're either holding sustain or you want the sound to crossover into Patch B so it tails nicely... at this point you have both Patch A and Patch B active at the same time. If both those patches have 2 Omnispheres you actually talking about 4. Maybe this isn't exactly what you're doing, but you get the idea.
    Can you stand to have a slightly bugger size?  Maybe try 256. Oh, and definately quit all other apps and perhaps turn off airport.

  • No sound out off my speak

    just installed my new Sound Blaster X-FI card on my computer. And i have put the right cables in it. And now i dont get any sound of my Trust 4500P 5. speaker set and i also dont get any sound out off my Headset.plz help to solve this problem

    I had the same problem..all of the sudden my analog outputs didnt work, i un checked digi i/o and checked it and unchecked it, only the digi i/o jack worked lucky for me my speakers take both analog and digital. i found if you go into the THX setup and mess around in there, the analog ports will?work again.

  • External speakers: sound goes off

    I've using a pair of Klipsch Pro Media 2.0 for months with my Mac Pro. They are great speakers - except for one problem: sound goes off when listening to music.
    I've opened one speaker and used an air blow can to clean the knobs. Seems to have helped, but there is still a problem. When not in use, I hear a light static noise and the sound goes dead. Nada. At that point, not even the internal speaker works. I'm not sure if I need to clean the interior of the Mac as well, if it's an energy saver issue or a hardware fault.
    Hope anyone can help.

  • Sound goes off after minimize IE or Chrome

    Hello everyone, I need a little help here.
    Let's say when I open youtube on IE or Chome and when i go to Start (Metro) the video continues to play, but the sound goes off...
    Is there any settings for that? 
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    It seems that the question was related to Modern IE 10 and Windows Store App.
    However, as far as I know, the behavior is by design.

  • When i make calls, all i can hear is static, and when i plug in headphones or turn the speaker on, it still doesnt work. but facetime, music, an apps sound still work. help? iphone 5

    when i make calls, all i can hear is static, and when i plug in headphones or turn the speaker on, it still doesnt work. but facetime, music, an apps sound still work. help? iphone 5

    Hello Delaney1130,
    It sounds like you are getting static on both the receiver and the speaker when you make a call. I would use the troubleshooting from the following article to help resolve the issue named:
    iPhone: Troubleshooting issues making or receiving calls
    https://support.apple.com/kb/TS3406
    Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
    Check your phone settings:
    Check your Do Not Disturb settings: Tap Settings > Do Not Disturb.
    Check for any blocked phone numbers: Tap Settings > Phone > Blocked.
    See if Call Forwarding is turned on: Tap Settings > Phone > Call Forwarding.
    Ensure that your software is up to date:
    Check for a carrier settings update.
    Check for an iOS software update.
    Note: Some updates may require a Wi-Fi connection.
    If the iPhone has a SIM card, reseat the SIM card.
    If the iPhone 4 or iPhone 4s is on the Verizon network, dial *228 from the iPhone and select option 2 to update the Preferred Roaming List (PRL). The PRL determines the cellular towers the phone uses for cellular service, selecting those with the best signal strength.
    Reset the network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Try to make or receive calls in another location.
    Attempt to isolate to one network band:
    If you're having the issue on LTE, disable LTE, if possible, and try again.
    If you're having the issue on 3G/4G, disable 3G/4G, if possible, and try again.
    Contact the carrier to check the following:
    Your account is properly configured to use the specific iPhone that has the issue.
    There are no localized service outages.
    Your account doesn't have a billing-related block.
    Your calls don't have errors on the carrier system.
    Restore the phone as new.
    If the above steps don't resolve the issue, go to an Apple Retail Store, carrier, Apple Authorized Reseller, or contact AppleCare to send the phone in for service.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,

  • MPEG2-DVD / Sound cut off *urgent*

    Hi everyone
    I have a very urgent problem which makes me lose my hair...
    We have 190 minutes of 1920x1080 25p footage which we edited in Premiere Pro.
    I then proceed to export the files into MPEG2-DVD using 2-pass VBR with 1,65/4,2/6.25 bitrate (according to an online bitrate calculator).
    I multiplex the sound into the MPEG-2 file.
    When I import the timeline into Encore, it correctly tells me "do not transcode".
    BUT the sound cuts off short of the video. It does it for every chapter. I cannot 'extend' or 'pull' the sound to the length of the video.
    First chapter is 24:19, sound cuts off at 23:15.
    Anyone got an ìdea what I am doing wrong?
    Any help is greatly appreciated!
    Michael

    I'm in complete agreement with Jeff here as well - selling PAL discs in the US will sooner or later cause problems.
    Priobably sooner.
    In the old days you would not get the player to even load them - it would throw a "no disc" or another error of some description - and even when you did find the odd rare one that would load them, the TV systems would make sure you got a garbled image, or a B&W one. These days a good Universal Player will usually load all types (although again a regular DVD player will most likey still not go for it) but you will still have TV system issues.
    The problem is the mains frequency - PAL (Europe) uses 625 lines and 50Hz whereas NTSC uses 525/60, which effectively means PAL runs at 25 frames/second & NTSC at 30 frames/second. The 2 are incompatible. Most PAL players can handle both formats either by outputting NTSC discs as PAL-60 or even genuine "on the fly" conversions to 525/60 NTSC.  The process is not straightforward either - the player is handling scaling, temporal conversion and object motion analysis all at once (Hence why most PAL setups output NTSC as PAL-60 instead of pure 525/60 NTSC) and additionally the audio speed must be adjusted (remember DVD is a multiplexed set of VOB files, not separate streams) to conform to the different display rate - which may also prevent the use of a digital connection!
    This type of conversion is much, much less compatible the other way around. Most NTSC players still cannot play PAL discs (although as I have said a Universal BluRay player may do this) and only a very small number can convert 625/50 PAL to 525/60 NTSC.
    Let us now talk about MPEG audio & why it is not recommended to use it. This gets complex.....
    MPEG audio is a multichannel format using perceptual encoding at 16-bit 48KHz. MPEG-1 Layer II and MPEG-2 BC (backwards compatible) are the only allowed forms and the MPEG-2 that is allowed - BC - is a matrixed format, not discrete, in surround use. Use of this type (MPEG audio) was only ever optional in NTSC, never mandatory (so that is one big problem) and the other big problem is that MPEG-2 audio is only allowed in BC mode. Why is this evil? Take a seat & let me try to go through it.
    Because MPEG-2 audio decoders were not available at the time of DVD introduction, MPEG-1 was the only decoder available so that was what got used. As a result, the only permissib;le type of MPEG-2 allowed is BC, which is a matrixed stream type (the 5 main channels are matrixed into Lt/Rt stereo streams) and then encoded in the normal MPEG-1 Layer II format for DVD. The advantage to this is that a multichannel stream can be phase matrix encoded so that it will also play on a stereo system. MPEG provides pre-determined matrixing formulas depending on the intended audience - one is a conventional stereo signal, another is designed to deliver a Dolby Surround compatible (*not* Dolby Digital - that is something very different) system that re-creates the centre channel fronm the left/right channels in addition to a single rear (or surround) channel (Nerdy Note - this is actually a development of the old SQ Quadraphonic matrixing system, set up for LCRS instead of L-R-Ls-Rs). Additional discrete channel information, plus the LFE channel, is encoded in an extension stream so that an MPEG-2 decoder (not MPEG-2 Audio) can recreate 6 separate signals. Because of the necessity to be backwards compatible with MPEG-1 decoders the centre & surround channels that are matrixed into the 2 MPEG-1 channels (left & right) are duplicated in the extension stream. This allows the MPEG-2 decoder to subtract those signals from the matrixed signals, leaving the original Left & Right channels. All this adds an overhead of approximately 32kbps, making it rather inefficient.. The original 2-channel MPEG-1 encoding process was not developed with matrixed audio in mind and therefore may actually remove surround detail. Also, the process tends to expose coding artefacts as well so coupled with the whole shebang only ever being optional in NTSC 525/60 systems means that to use this as your solitary stream type is actually out of spec for 525/60 regions & players may well take one look at the disc & output...................in short, just a picture. And if that picture is 625/50 PAL, quite possibly not that either.
    Audio support in DVD.
    MPEG-2 audio is basically not supported except in BC moide, which hands everything over to MPEG-1 decoders. This is not good. It is not efficient, it can be riddled with artefacts & it is not supported by fiat in NTSC regions, only optionally. If it is your sole stream you will run into trouble sooner or later.
    I hope this helps, and I think I will go away & write a little article about this as it keeps cropping up every so often..
