Sound problems with audigy platinum after software upgra

After updating software (and then deleteing and redownloading) I had the usual sounds from windows but no sound in other programs. The eax environment was turned to no effects. When I added effects there was then sound. This would be OK in games but is annoying when listening to news broadcasts on AOL.
Any ideas?

Well now I'm confused alright. I told you I took out the TV tuner and everything seemed fine. Wrong! The system froze again while playing a DVD movie this time. Naturally I thought about the graphics card which is an Albatron FX 5200 (yes one of those about which NVidia appologised for their technical problems). So I opened the case and took the graphics card out and it was hot! I mean you could fry eggs on it. I checked the system's temperature and I got 58 degrees Celsius for the mainboard. I forgot to mention that I live in Greece and the atmosphere's temperature now is between 29 and 35 degrees celsius. Then I rememberd reading that the new FX series by NVidia are considered very bad graphics cards and besides everything they have cooling problems. So I stuck in my old graphics card (ASUS GEforce Ti 4200) and mounted an additional cooler fan on the case. Now the mainboard's temp doesn't rise over 49-50 degrees Celsius and until this time I haven't had any freezes. My guess is it wasn't the tuner after all. It was a temperature problem and since I'm working with programs that stress the CPU and Audigy to their limits (multiple music sequencing and audio mixing software) I have a good reason to believe that. So the FX 5200 is most likely to have caused it all. Needless to say that besides the extreme temperature the card has crappy performance as well no matter the 128 MB of RAM. I just hope I won't need any more fans to be able to work.

Problems with Audigy Platinum and Firew

Hi,
I've been running my Soundblaster Audigy Platinum on my Win2k-System for some years and have just encountered some weird problems with the Firewire-Connector. When I connect an external DVD-Burner everything works fine. But when I connected an external harddisc for the first time recently, the system completely flipped and rebootet without any messages. When I connected the dri've via USB it wasn't recognized automatically (what it should have after the manual) but after installing the Drivers on the Disc. Afterwards also the Firewire-connect was possible, the dri've was recognized and appeared in the Explorer. So far so good.
But now, everytime I try to copy files larger than some Megabyte the dri've stops copying and I get an error message. Then the dri've disappears in the explorer. When I connect the dri've to my Laptop (XP Pro System) everything works fine. I already tried to google the problem and found some users with the same problem, unfortunately no answers to their posts. Is there someone who can help me (us)?
By the way, I already tried to re-install the drivers for the audigy...

Gaming/Sound Problems with Audigy 2 NX

Hello all,
I'm new at the forum so hye everybody.
i wonder if anyone encounter a problem of playing games with EAXHD support, using my card (audigy 2 nx, or just audigy2).
in the game FAR CRY, when enabling EAX, after 2 min i hear a horrible sound, and right after my pc got stock! only the Reset button can help. not even CTRL ALT DEL.
another prob. is with Tomb Raider Legend, i hear cracking all the time, and they get lowder as the music and sound goes lowder.
i hope someone can tell me what to do, coz the Creative support doesn't...
i installed the card on 3 different PC's, different H/W. even formated my PC and Reinstalld WinXP.
the same result with both of the games.
i hope anyone here can help.
thank you all,
have a good week,
Dor.

in order to use eax in your games, you have to disable the eax function in the mediacenter! assure it is disabled before choosing eax in your games!

Surround sound problems with new 15.11 software

Firstly I would like to give a big thankyou for getting the new IP recording software release out it is very welcome.
Unfortunately this has highlighted even more the surround sound issue for me. All my tests have been done over optical (if anyone could repeat the tests over HDMI it would be very much appreciated just to see if there is any difference).
Here are my findings so far with a small amount of testing.
BT TV on Demand
HD 5.1 movies appear to switch correctly
SD and HD none multi surround movies appear to play in stereo from the start needing the menu/surround workaround applying to get surround sound as is the same for the tv box sets and kids on demand.
IP Channels
HD sports channels i.e. BT Sports 1,2 and ESPN (I have hidden the SD versions so haven't tested them) appear to a switch to surround sound correctly
All other channels start in stereo and require the AD button on/off workaround to switch to surround sound.
IP Channel Recordings
Here lies the real problem for me now. Any IP channel recordings (not tested sports channels yet) start in stereo and require the AD on/off button workaround to switch to surround sound BUT as soon as you apply a fast forward or rewind when it starts to play again it has switched back to the stereo feed which is a much higher volume. I hope you can appreciate how annoying this gets that everytime you fast forward/rewind a recorded IP channel to sound switches and starts playing at a higher volume until the workaround is applied (everytime).
Obviously the freeview channels all appear to switch and work fine.
I am sure there is more to find but I just felt it worthwhile getting the issue highlighted AGAIN now the recording ability increases the visibility of this bug.

Maybe slightly harse as with more testing I am not sure if this is a youview/humax issue and is a problem on the catchup player on youview retail also. I have added below to my first post slightly with a few more findings and some clarity.
When I say surround sound what I am talking about is the Dolby Digital track (this can be 5.1 or 2.0 but in 2.0 format my amp can encode that with pro logic 2 and make it sound like a reasonable surround sound track through my speakers).
After testing through HDMI sound I find that this is even worse and in most cases will not transmit the Dolby 2.0 track at all even using the workarounds.
The freeview HD channels work flawlessly as do the BT sports HD channels (all 3 inc ESPN) (non-HD freeview channels do not appear to carry anything but standard stereo so can't switch no matter what). If anyone has a surround setup check the difference in volume between channel 001 (BBC non HD) and channel 101 (BBC HD) this I believe is the difference between the standard stereo channel and the dolby 2.0 stereo channel.
All IP channels (except sports) fail to automatically select the Dolby 2.0 soundtrack unless forced, as do the catch up channels (tested during programme playback as no Dolby during the adverts) and if recorded switch back to standard stereo everytime a skip/rewind step is made.
Most on-demand content fail to switch automatically to the Dolby 2.0 track but can be forced with the exception of some HD movies with 5.1 soundtracks that appear to work without a workaround.

Problem With MuVo V200 after software upd

Hi
Today I buy a MuVo Gb,
I check that the software ver. in the MP3 player
was old.
I download the file "MuVoV200_PCFW_LF__2_03.exe"
and installede the file, No problem
After the update I can NOT turn-on the mp3 player,
and the pc can NOT see the MP3 in the USB port.
So it is DEAD. Have can i wake-up the mp3 player ? again
Regard
Arne

From the website, download and install the Mass Storage Drivers.
Then, press and hold the Play button while connecting your player to the USB port of your PC. This is connecting your V200 in what is called Recovery Mode.
Keep pressing the Play button until the New Hardware Wizard starts.
Complete the wizard.
When finished reload the firmware. If it doesn't work with the latest version then try one of the earlier version linked to in the thread in my signature line.

Problems with Storm 9530 after software update

Greetings, I am new to this forum and hope I am in the right place.
After an email prompt from BlackBerry, Yesterday, I updated my software on my Verizon BlackBerry Storm, 9530.
Now I have several problems;
1. Voice commands are not being recognized as easily as previously, making hands free calling almost impossible.
2. Pandora will stall near the end of each selection. The song will resume after I push the pause and then the play button.
3. When I attempt to live stream from a local radio station, I get the following message: "! This playlist contains no valid songs"    Buffering... is displayed in the upper right hand corner, but no connection is ever made.
Any ideas what I need to do to fix the thing?

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
1) A known bug...we all hope that RIM is working on a fix.
2) A known bug...Pandora is working on a fix. I have heard that it is available on their website but not yet via AppWorld.
3) Very difficult to diagnose...it could be the website itself...it could be your device browser settings....it could be a number of things. Try these steps.
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Register with VZW:
Dial *228, select option 1
Dial *228, select option 2
Register HRT:

Resend Service Books:
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Websites can be coded to perform better with some browsers rather than others. The BB Browser can appear to websites as several different things...that setting is, from within the Browser App, (BBKey > Options > Browser Configuration > Browser Identification). Changing that to another browser might help your BB interact better with some websites. In combination with all of the other configuration settings, you need to find the combination of all of these settings that works best for the sites you are visiting. Sadly, there is no "best advice" to give as each persons needs are different. But, I typically find that changing the Browser Identification often helps -- most often by changing to FF or IE (if those are available to you...the options vary by carrier).
Hopefully something in there will get you going again.
Good luck!

Sound Problems with Audigy 2

I just bought the Audigy 2 ZS Gamers Edition.
I am now having trouble with the sound with games I have or ones that came with the card.
I try to play Raven Shield and I get no sound in the opening movies or in the menus. In game I can't hear my teamates responses,music,or the voice that says if you fail the mission or complete it but I can hear all other sounds fine. I have the EAX option selected.
Now if I go into the DXDIAG program and turn my acceleration down notch I get all my sounds back BUT I can't choose EAX in the sound options as it is now greyed out.Real nice putting a game in the box that claims to use the EAX HD sound but it really does not work.
The other one I have tried is Sid Meiers Pirates.Again I choose the EAX option in the sound menu and I loose half of my sounds in game. I choose the Surround Sound option and I get all sounds back again.
I am almost afraid to try any other games that use EAX as they seem to not want to work with this card without losing sounds even though it is supposed to support EAX. I am also thnking of returning the card and going back to Turtle Beach for my sound card because of these problems.
My system is as follows.
ASUS P5P800 Motherboard
P4 3.0Ghz CPU 800Mhz FSB
024 MB PC3200 RAM
GeForce 6600GT video card
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Gamers card w/newest drivers
Altec Lansing 5. Speakers
WinXP Home Edition

in order to use eax in your games, you have to disable the eax function in the mediacenter! assure it is disabled before choosing eax in your games!

Sound problem with exporting from After Effects

Hello everybody,
I exported a windows media video from premiere cs5 (it was shot with the cannon 7d).
The video has 1 video channel, 1 audio channel that contains a conversation, and another audio channel that contains only music.
After I exported it, I imported the video into After Effects cs5, I added some effects, and then I exported it as a windows media video.
The audio settings were:
Mode- music
codec- windows meida audio voice 9
audio format- 20kbps, 22.05 khz, mono
Even though the video from Premiere was flawless, the one from After Effects contains the conversation perfectly, but the music is very low and even erratic.
Did anybody experienced this problem?

AE doesn't deal with multiple channels. It always assumes that a file with 2 channels is stereo. You need to export the audio from Premiere separately or create a proper stereo mix, not throw two interleaved mono channels at AE...

Problems with monitor/resolution after software update

I installed the latest security update tonight, and now my monitor no longer properly works with my mini. I have a Dell 2005FPW. I was using 1680x1050 resolution with no problems. When I rebooted after the update, I noticed my resolution had been changed... and now the mac only detects my display as a "VGA display" and I can't select that resolution any more! The monitor still works fine with my PC.
How can I get my 1680x1050 back??

Do you have a KVM switch to share your monitor between your Mac and your PC? I was getting this problem when I got one of these so my new Mac could share my monitor etc with my old one but found a way round it. In System Preferences -> Displays, tick the 'Show displays in menu bar' box. Then click on 'Detect displays' from the drop down menu. The screen will go blue for a moment and the computer will recognise the monitor for what it is.

Problem with iphone4 music after software update

Updated software on my iphone 4 on 3/22/13. Now, my entire music library on my phone is in icloud format and must be downloaded. Discovered this while flying cross country. Grrrr.
Why did this happen and - more to the point - how can i get my music library to sync normally again so it's simply on my phone and ready to play?
Thanks.

I phoned my provider as requested and they have advised me that it is necessary to send my brand new phone in for repair. I honestly don't know if they have opened a support ticket. I do thank you for your prompt assistance thus far, however, I am none too impressed with this situation. I hope the next software update doesn't cause more problems, so far the phone isn't worh the contract it's written for when it comes to user friendliness, app availability, or user options. I was hoping for better from BlackBerry this time around.

Problems with LG Enact after software update to KitKat

After the update, I seem to have
1) Battery charging issues. Problems charging past 96% (or at least appears that way on the notifications bar on my phone). Have had to unplug and/or restart phone to complete the charge and sometimes it doesn't always work.
2) Slower 4G speeds. Often going down to 3G or 1X
3) Phone seems sluggish overall going from app to app and also when typing on the keyboard
4) Freezing when using wifi or phone data plan.
I've googled these problems and appears that other phones have been having one or more of these issues as well. Any ideas on how to fix these issues?

If you've googled, then you likely have seen some of the suggested "fixes". Have you tried:
1) Check your network settings - be sure it'[s set to LTE/CDMA - I've noticed that updates and resets on my phones tend to revert to Global which results in glitchy behavior, at least for me. Resetting to LTE/CDMA and restarting helps.
2) Run a system cache clear, it won't affect any of your data or setting but WILL clear up unused fuiles and processes that may be slowing things down and causing the sluggishness you see.
Performing a wipe cache partition removes any temporary files that may be causing an issue with the device. All personal files and settings are not affected by this option.
Power the device off.
Press and hold the Volume Up and Down button then press the Power button.
When presented with the Boot Mode Selection Menu, release all buttons.
Press Volume Down button to select 'Recovery' then press the Volume Up button.
From the Droid triage screen:
Press and hold the Volume down button.
Press and release the Volume up button.
Release the Volume down button.
Select wipe cache partition then press the Power button.
Use Volume keys to navigate options.
Select reboot system now then press the Power button.
Use Volume keys to navigate options.
3) FDR - Factory Data Reset - be sure all your contacts, photos, etc are backed up - if you use Google to store contacts and auto back up photos and music it should already be backed up. Once you do the reset, restore from Google, and selectively reinstall your apps. This is a last resort, but it can clear out a lot of accumulated gunk.
Hope this helps.

Problems with ITMS Videos after 1.1 Update

OK, so there are lots of posts about video problems on 5G ipods after software update 1.1 and what encoding methods were used etc etc.
After updating my 60GB iPod to 1.1 all my videos, including those purchased from the iTunes Music Store, suffer from audio problems.
The video playback is fine, no freezing like others have mentioned, but I get loud popping and clicking sounds on the audio, particulalry at the start of a clip.
Has ayone else experienced problems with video sound after the 1.1 update?
Restoring to software 1.0 resolved the problem so there is definitely a problem with 1.1 and ITMS content.
Apple need to sort this out. Fast.

I foolishly did the 1.1 upgrade to my 60G iPod. I found that, as we all know by now, that all ov my videos that weren't from Quicktime Pro or purchased through iTunes hang after about 30 seconds, and then continues without any audio. But, the really obnoxious part is that my videos that I converted via QuickTime Pro suffered from very strange audio artifacts. These would fall into the category of clicks, purrs, warbles and other strange noises in addition to the audio that is supposed to be there. That pushed me over the line, and I "downgraded" my iPod back to release 1.0. I did the "restore" to completely erase my iPod and then re-loaded it from iTunes. I had already upgraded iTunes, and it has no problems with my now-restored-to-version 1.0 iPod. By the way, you have to edit a system file in order to do the downgrade: Put the ipod in harddisk mode. Edit the file (hidden folder and file) \iPod_Control\Device\SysInfo Replace the line that have the word "buildID" with this line:
buildID: 0x05908000 (6.0)
Then run the original iPod Updater to put 1.0 back onto it. This will leave you with the "feature" that any video that you change the Video Kind to TV Show will not show up on your iPod unless it's in a Video Play List. I actually like this, as it keeps the Video list from being cluttered up.

Is there a fix yet for the no sound problem with lion on the iMac without having to restart every time I switch the computer on?

Is there a fix yet for the no sound problem with lion on the iMac without having to restart every time I switch the computer on?

Try booting in Safe Mode by holding the the shift key immediately after powering on your system. Safe boot mode will for a directory check of your startup volume, then load only the required kernal extensions (kext files), and deletes some cache files. Once the system boots into Safe Mode you can simply restart the system to see whether the issue has been resolved.
If you still have the issue try resetting the SMC by shutting down the system and disconnecting the power cord for ~15 seconds, then reconnecting the power cord. Next, reset the parameter RAM (PRAM) by holding down the option-option-P-R keys after powering ON the system. Wait until the iMac restarts twice, then let the system boot normally.

Sound problems with Satellite A100 (PSAA8)

I am continually having sound problems with the laptop. Whilst I hear the windows start up noise and beeps, I cannot hear any sound from things like CDs, iTunes, Media Player - in fact an error message will always come up. In Media Player the error message "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device......." comes up. I have a the standard pre-installed Realtek sound thing on my laptop. I have tried downloading a newer driver from the Toshiba support centre, but I don't know what to do with the zip file. Also in Control Panel, Sounds, everything is greyed-out.
Hope someone can help cos I am going nuts with this :-)
Thanks

Hi again
I have downloaded the Realtek sound driver from the Tosh page and unzipped it.
(I have chosen the driver for Vista!!! I suppose you use Vista???)
There is a folder called sound. Access this folder and run Setup.exe
But before you will start this procedure you could access the device manager (control panel -> computer -> device manager) and choose sound, video, and game controller. There you have to mark realtek AC and click on uninstall and reboot the unit.
After this sound driver removing you should start the new driver installation described above. (setup.exe)
