Soundblaster live game p

Hi everyone! This is my first post here so please bear with me.
I used the soundblaster li've sound card with my old computer (200). I just purchased a new computer and it didn't have the plug-ins that I needed for my speakers (which I kept from the old system - very nice speakers!) or my foot pedal (that I use for my work as a medical transcriptionist) so the support team where I bought the new computer said that they could take the card out of my old cpu and install it in the new. The sound seems to be working fine but I am having trouble getting my foot pedal to work (that is plugged into the game port on the card). Are there some drivers or updates that I should be looking for on Creative's site. I'm not really sure what the problem could be - not very good all this technical stuff.
Any ideas?

You could try selecting the 2-axis, 2-button joystick. It's pretty much standard. If your foot pedal is on-off, it has a switch in it and it would probably use one or more of the joystick button inputs. If it is sensiti've to how hard you push on it, then it likely has a potentiometer in it, and it would use one or more of the joystick axis inputs.

Thank you Katman for your response. I ended up purchasing a USB foot pedal. However, I did go to the control panel as you suggested and I saw no device listed so I clicked on the 'add' button and not one of those devices sounded even remotely similar to the foot pedal. Is it a shot in the dark type of guess?
Thanks again!

  • Soundblaster live gameport not working on k7n2 delta-L

    i have a k7n2 delta-L motherboard and i installed a soundblaster live sound card and can not get the game port to work at all. first i thought it was a bad card so i installed a different card and the same thing so ithen thought it was the game controller and tried a different one and it didnt work either . and yes i disabled the on board sound in the bios before installing the card. i have it in ide slot #3. seems to be the best to go with .i am running win 98 se. and all my drivers are up to date. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

    fourhooffarms,
    In the BIOS Disable the onboard Realtek Sound and then put the Live! in PCI Slot 3 or 4, then set the IRQ of that Slot to IRQ5.
    Also list all your IRQs and every Device on each IRQ.
    Take Care,
    Richard
    P.S. Do list the specs on your Power Supply too.

  • XBOX ONE. I have the xbox one and the airport time capsule and cant connect to most xbox live games and zero parties. I have 0 experience in all this but somehow was able to change NAT to open but still wont connect. HELLLPPPP

    Okay folks, I need your help out there.
    So the nerdy side of me went and picked up the XBOX ONE on release day. Its awesome by the way, BUT..... I cant seem to connect to most xbox live games and absolutely ZERO parties. At first I just thought it was something to do with the xbox itself and would eventually fix itself, but i was wrong. After looking into it on microsoft, i found out that it had to do with my NAT settings on the airport itself. I guess apple and xbox are not compatiable for xbox live and it makes it difficult to have an open NAT setting and is a huge PAIN.
    I was able to pinpoint one that the airport time capsule was blocking the IPV6 something or another. Anyways, I unblocked that, and reset the modem and time capsule and jumped on the xbox and now have open NAT settings but still cant connect to multi-player.
    Upon further searching, i was told to uncheck the UPNP on my time capsule as well, but have no idea how to find that.
    I know it seems confusing, but thats the best i can describe it.
    tthanks all

    Be a long long time before I see an Xbox One.. but whoever told you to uncheck the upnp in the TC.. tell them their dreamin' .. upnp is not support by Apple in any computer or router, never has been.. Apple deliberately wrote their own version called NAT-PMP to do the same thing.. dynamically open ports at the request of an application or client computer.
    So there is nothing like that to uncheck.. and as a matter of interest.. there no box to check or uncheck for NAT-PMP either.. since apple do not believe in end user adjustment of settings.. they simply do not exist.
    You will have to manually forward all ports required by the Xbox via the TC. For multi-player games you probably need to open more ports than the standard to allow just xbox live. You will need to check the ports required and open them.
    OR
    Buy a standard vista UPNP compatible router.. and use that.. and simply put the TC in bridge in the network.
    I have not seen posts yet about xbox one.. but there are plenty about xbox and ps3 and the fact that Apple really doesn't give a hoot about games consoles.
    This is a good basic post for older xbox.

  • Crash only with ESPN3 ("watchespn") live game COMMERCIALS

    Hello.
    I have had no problems  with this for years until 3 weeks ago after getting the Flash player 11 update. Ever since then, video from all sites and sources run fine with the exception of espn3.com. During live college football games, the live game video is just fine - great, actually. If they go to break and put up a generic slate such as "in commercial break",.....it continues to be fine. But if a commercial video (Sprint wireless comes to mind as an example) - the video freezes after a few seconds, then the browser window freezes, then the entire system freezes and I can't do anything. By the time I restart everything, I have missed half the game. Videos from any other site have no problems. I am hoping someone can help. If this is a known bug with flash player 11 from a few weeks ago - then will rolling back to 10 fix the problem and if so - how would I do that?
    Thanks for any assistance.
    > Lenovo PC laptop. Windows XP. Internet Explorer 8. Healthy system. Runs great except for this new problem.

    Sorry to hear your problem. I realized that I saw another person calimed about ESPN watching and sounded like recently started so there must be something behind. This might be Flash Player 11 issue or this might be ESPN (or comercial provider) started something new and causing trouble. I don't know well. But you can try downgrading Flash Player and see how it look for a while. Please see our FAQ to uninstall current version and install older Flash Player.
    How do I uninstall Flash Player?

  • MLB on Apple TV not starting from beginning of live game when Play is pressed

    I have an Apple TV 2nd Generation and have been using the MLB.tv app.
    Only compalint:  When I select a game, Apple TV tells be to press Select to play live and Play to start from the beginning.
    However, when I press play or select, I am taken to the live game, which is a drag.
    Anyone experiencing the same problem?

    Hi christoph, this is one of those headbangers.
    the AAC and mpeg or exported as mp3 files both do it, which yes, is totally weird.
    So, i can get the context menu, right clicking or cntl click, but what option is there to set it to new, as you suggest.
    Thanks for your efforts

  • Problem with DTT3500 soundset and onboard Soundblaster live! 24-bit

    Hi,
    I have bought a new PC with an MSI k8n sli platinum MB. this mainboard has a built in soundblaster live!24-bit chip onboard. it works great on headphones and normal 2 set speakers (analog connection).
    however, when I try to set them up at the DTT3500 speaker set, trouble begins.
    before continuing, just want to say First that my older PC is standing next to it, with a Soundblaster live! 5.1. If I connect with this PC to my speaker set, via the digital uitput, everythin works great. (5.1 surround).
    In the DTT3500 manual, when Digital DIN is blinking, it says it isn't recieving any signal, or not the right one (like AC-3). (I know this when on my old PC when I switch to headphones, the digital din is then blinking, which is normal as I disabled Digital output in Windows)
    now my questions:
    Is this digital port is ac-3 signal or somthing else on the Soundblaster live! 24-bit?
    Do I need to use another type of cable, like SPDIF Din Cable? (I now have a minijack to Din cable)
    I tried with optical, it works, but only with 2 speakers (left and right / digital output is on). is this normal? If i look at the manual, it's typical used for gameconsoles with stereo left and right. I guess this is so with the DDT3500 decoder...?
    if I try Digital Din on the Decoder, it doesn't work. the Decoder Led keeps blinking. Yet in Windows, digital output is on and 5.1 speakers is selected.
    In short, exact the same setup on the Decoder and PC as my older PC.
    My guess is the the soundblaster live! 24-bit is an enhanced version of the soundblaster live! 5.1? Am I wrong, I don't know....
    I do know that the reviews said you could use the digital port (orange one)
    here is a picture:
    http://www.overclockers.co.nz/ocnz/reviewimage.php?id=05boardnf4sli00microstak8nslipt0104&file=panel.jpg
    and here more info on it: http://www.overclockers.co.nz/ocnz/review.php?id=05boardnf4sli00microstak8nslipt0204
    I would apreciate any help, as i'm really stuck at the moment.

    does anybody use the soundblaster live! 24-bit to  power a surround speaker set? or is it just impossible? (for gaming)

  • ALsa + Soundblaster Live 5.1 + 5.1 Sound

    HI there!
    I finally bought a 5.1 Surround System today, but I have a major problem. Only the Subwoofer, Fron-Left- and Front-Right-Speakers are working, no Sound from Center, Surround-Left- and Surround-Right-Speakers
    Here is my modules.conf, Alsa-Page says it should work:
    # module : ALSA
    alias char-major-116 snd
    alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1 snd_cards_limit=1
    options snd-emu10k1 snd_index=0 snd_id="EMU10K1" snd_extout=0x1f0f
    # OSS/Free portion
    alias char-major-14 soundcore
    alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
    alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
    alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
    alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
    alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss

    alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss

    And now my .asounrc
    pcm.emu10k1 {
    type hw
    card 0
    ctl.emu10k1 {
    type hw
    card 0
    I tried so much already and nothing works
    I played around with alsamixer and I finally got the Center-Speaker to work, but it just works instead of the Front-Left-Speaker. It really sucks.
    Maybe you can help me, it would be nice.

    i had some same issues , but i have soundblaster live 24-bit , but disabling the onboard bios didnt do anything for me , so i had to look for some ways to figure out how to fix this , * love thy google.com/linux *
    bash# speaker-test -c6 -t2 ( this is to test your surround speakers , providing your using ca0106 driver such as myself )
    if you only get a few channels you could also make your ~/.asoundrc file with some goodies in it  ill post a few examples i have found
    pcm.ca0106 {
    type hw
    card 0
    ctl.ca0106 {
    type hw
    card 0
    ctl.!default {
        type hw           
        card 0
    pcm.!default {
        type hw           
        card 0
    pcm.!default {
            type plug
            slave.pcm "dout"

    Now dont forget to run alsaconf before you do this and make sure you have 5.1 surround speakers for this as well
    any other questions about the soundblaster live 24-bit , contact me and ill try to help if i can , ( i have been reading about this for days  )

  • SoundBlaster Live! 24 and Vista - Deteriorating Sound Qual

    I've recently upgraded to Vista Business, and my system informs me that except for the drivers for an ancient scanner all is working properly.
    When playing music (using a Creative SB Li've 24bit card with the most recent driver installed), all starts off well (in fact playback is better than under XP Pro) but the sound quality starts to deteriorate badly, especially when I open a browser. Quite often the browser itself seems to freeze.
    I have 3Gb RAM, with a 3.60Ghz P4 processor.
    Task Manager tells me that often I am running at 00% of CPU capacity, though the problem seems to occur at lower usage too.
    I've checked everything I know to check but just can't seem to get to the root of the problem. Can anyone suggest anything I should be looking at?

    Sadly no real progress.
    I simply pulled the Soundblaster Live 24 out of the computer and am using the onboard sound instead which at least for me Arch recognized just fine.
    I haven't been able to get any suggestions for why the Soundblaster was not working, but I am going to try another sound card a friend lent me and see what happens.

    EVerything else else is available in the NBATV app, such as NBA TV live, video vault and all the scores and settings
    i Have a friend that has the same problem, so it isn't specific to my AppleTV

    I had (have) this issue also. Resetting the Apple TV back to factory setting "Reset All Settings" works for me. I have had to do this a couple of times though already. Its quite annoying as you have to setup the Apple TV from scratch each time but its the only way I have found to be able to watch games via Apple TV. I have read a number of people reporting the same issue so hopefully a fix via an Apple TV software update is coming...
