SPDIF out IS

I am having trouble with the set-up of my SPDIF Digital Out to Sony digital processor. (DPP)
I am using a Audology 2Z, & ATA hard dri'ves
First I turned off all EAX / Digital speaker items then I checked the spdif out button. Got a lot of hissing sounds with normal sound while playing DVD movies copied to my Hard disk.
Colateral Damage plays music out of the R& L speakers but there are no voices, no center or rear
I robot plays music & voices but only R & L speakers, no center or rear.
Note: If I connect speakers to the PC everything plays normal (with the right settings). I want to connect the PC to my hometheater system.
What am I missing in the set-up process?:smileysurprised:Message Edited by tom566 on 0-0-2005 07:02 AM

I think this is what we both need but i cant get anyone in creative labs to tell me whent its comming out in the states
I think there may be some confusion in this as we are introducing a new accessory with a similar name to the older Digital I/O 2 cards. There is a new I/O module that is being released that is what I believe you are referring to in the documentation. It has not been released in the US market as of yet, but is very similar to the breakout module that came with the original I/O 2 cards, and almost identical in appearance. This new product has update circuitry to work with the newer cards...

Spdif out on windvd = no sound ! X

was trying to whatch a dvd the other night after burning it only to fin i get no sound !
windvd is set as per the instructions to pass the siganl to my soundcard (x fi plat) and the sound cards set to decode the signal but i get nothing at all, th eonly way i get sound is if i set windvd to analogue aka plain old stereo stanger still is if i play the vobs for the dvd of my hdd the sound works fine !

Not sure why your running into a prob. I just tested WinDVD here and am getting spdif out to SC just fine. Only issue I have is that allowing WinDVD to do the audio on a DTS disc the volume is louder than if spdif and let x-fi decode it. Any chance you have the decoder set backward for the card, ie set to Dolby bitstream out instead of built-in decoder? I know you said you had it right & sounds like you know what your doing but thats the only thing I can think of. Which version of WinDVD are you using?

Qosmio G30-102 Optical SPDIF out not working

I have bought new Qosmio G30-102 and I am quite sure that SPDIF Optical Out connector is not working.
I can't test it at the moment, but I had a couple of SPDIF sound cards and every one of them had a red light on all the time, which signalized that Optical SPDIF is supported.

Hi,
maybe I would first try a SPDIF device, if I were you, because I agree with the user before, it has definetively a SPDIF out.

Help with spdif out

i have a home theater system setup, goes from the spdif out on front of my A.2zs platinum card to the coax in on my receiver, and it worked great for about half an hour, then the music i was playing started to get a funny sound in intervals, like it was dropping out, fading in and out, could this be interference?

sorry, don't have dvd player installed, but, i downloaded AC3 trailers and still no succes.
something to add, the MSI SOUND MANAGER that came with the driver also doesn't produce 5.1, i've selected digital output and 6 channel coax and when i turned the speaker test on, surround speakers didn't made any sound, only the 2 front speakers.
what do u think about this ?

XBox 360/Audigy: SPDIF IN pass through to SPDIF OUT not working with 5.1

Hi,
I've a problem passing my digital dobly signal from my 360 over the Audigy soundblaster to my external decoder. I want to use digital SPDIF IN from the audigy?IO device to pass the signal directly without processing to the external decoder by using the SPDIF OUT.
There is only one digital in at the decoder, so I need this combination if I want my PC and XBox to be connected both without a toslink switch.
I activated the pass through and external decoder option in the audigy console application. I also disabled the DDL encoder. Additionally I set my Windows 7 speaker settings to use SPDIF OUT as standard device.
This is working for every dolby digital signal?from a dvd which I play on my PC, but not for the XBox signal. The signal is not recognized as a 5. dolby digital signal, but as a 2.0 signal. So something must happen with the signal in the audigy. The XBox settings are correct, because when I connect the toslink cable directly to the decoder everything works fine.
My drivers are the newest one (3.8)?from the support pack.
I don't want to use the DDL option, because the latency is much to high to allow regular playing!
Is there a possibility to pass the XBox signal through to my decoder by using the digital in and out of the audigy?
Thanks in advance,
Axel

Hi I have the same probleme, exept that I have succesfuly pluged my home theater receiver and the 5.1 works. Just my subwoofer seems not to work properly. Like when I plug it into a digital dvd player it works very nicely. but when pluged into the sound card it seems that it dosnt have any signal for it.
ANy clues??? I know i pluged everything finely I have tested the sound test for each speaker and sub to, from the receiver and from the creative software the sub seems to work but very quietly even if I cran the volume up on the sub or in the software , the sub dont work as it should.
1 thing I remarqued is that the sub works occasionaly in some movies. When listening to the music it not working and I dont understand that.

X-FI Titanium + DDL Encoding + SPDIF Out Configuration on Windows 7 x64

?My setup - I have an X-FI Titanium running on Windows 7 x64. The optical out of the X-FI is connected to a splitter - one goes to my speakers (Logitech z-5500) and the other goes to my headphone amp (Astro Mixamp). I'm running the latest beta driver and daniel's last support pack, along with the latest DDL and DTS packages.
When I enable DDL encoding in the creative panel, it says I have to set the default device to be Creative X-FI (Speakers). Why not SPDIF out? If I set SPDIF Out as the default device, I get no sound. If I reboot, I get a blue screen.
If I set speakers as default, I get sound from both the speakers (if I connect analog) and optical out. I thought this configuration wasn't possible anymore on Vista/Windows 7?

they dont want you to use spidf out because the console doesnt control it and doesn't give you any enhacments at all. either turn the software volume control to 0, or unplug them.

X-Fi XtremeMusic switch to SPDIF-Out

Hi, i have a Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeMusic SB0460 on a Windows 7 64Bit.
I install the latest Driver and it works.
After a reboot the i see only the SPDIF-Out and the soundcard doesnt work anymore.
How can i fix it?

Great, you made my day. Thanks for that reply.
I did not know, where to start counting the pins from (there is no nor a 9 next to the pins on my board). Just used the one from the image you posted and: it works.
BUT: When I play music / movies on my PC and have the analog output on AND the digital I can clearly hear, that the digital output has a delay (which leads to a great reverb effect). I tried to turn off all sound processing (EAX, CSS3d, Crystalizer) in the audio console but the delay is still there.
Any idea, on how to get rid of that delay? Because it's bad seeing people move their lips asynchronously to their speaking.
Thanks, path

No one has this problem at all?
I want to find out for sure if there is a fix before going back to the older drivers.
If i do the test in the spdif out properties panel -> supported formats. When I do the dolby digital test I see the light come on in my receiver and hear sound just thru the front speakers. But when I use power DVD 9 ultra with the latest patch. I don't get the digital light on my receiver. I had this working with the previous drivers released earlier this year.

No 5.1 sound no SPDIF out

I have porblems with sound card (KT3ARU).
I have no no 5.1 ouput sound no coaxial SPDIF out my hifi shows only 2 channel sound
I tried everything:
- install latest software
- setup software to 5.1 mode and select Coaxial SPDIF out
- check my hifi - it works with DVD
Thank's in advance!

if it works with a dvd all is well
try playing mp3 with your power or win dvd software
and adjusting the settings
the onboard only plays what its fed mp3 stereo and most games the same

Issues with SPDIF out Extreme Au

I have yet another issue with my Extreme Audio and Digital I/O, but I found my own work-around so I decided to post it.
I have the Digital I/O module and I just picked up a Z-5500 speaker and wanted to go digital on my HTPC. Nothing reported that I had a SPDIF out (PowerDVD, Nero, VLC). So I reinstalled the drivers (and did not reboot). It worked and all was good until I rebooted, then no more SPDIF out. Nothing I could do would re-able the SPDIF. Reinstalled the drivers (and didn't reboot). SPDIF working again. Hmmm, this is going to be a PITA.
Lightning Strikes!
I figured out that if I disable, then re-enable the card in Device Manager all is well (until I reboot). This is a 24/7 HTPC, so this isn't a major problem for me.

I have the Express configured now as ‘extend a wireless network’. Is this correct, or should it be ‘join a wireless network’ ? It presently shows the router mode as Off (bridge mode).
Router mode "off" is correct but "extend a wireless network" and the dotted line indicate that it is "wirelessly extending" your Extreme's network which is not what you intend.
If an Express detects a viable Internet connection from its WAN port, AirPort Utility should propose that connection. Since it did not, verify the Ethernet cable is intact by connecting a wired Mac or other device to it, ensuring its wireless is temporarily turned off to avoid confusion. When you are satisfied that the Ethernet connections are correct, reprogram the Express. Usually it is best to start with another "hard reset". AirPort Utility should configure it the way you propose. If an Express is already configured to connect wirelessly, it's difficult to convince it otherwise without a "hard reset".
It is possible that the complexity of your wired network could introduce an element of uncertainty. The noises you describe are unusual. An Express's internal power supply might make a barely detectable whine but an Extreme's power supply is separate and I can't think of anything within an Extreme that should make a noise that you describe.
Check each connection point and cable for connection integrity. If in doubt, check each connection point with an Ethernet cable known to be good, and a device capable of verifying its connection. If it's not a portable Mac, try the Xbox or similar device. An Ethernet network test appliance is another option. Cat 6 problems are usually found at connections, and they are not very forgiving of improper work.
There is nothing wrong with routing Ethernet cable alongside metal ductwork, as long as it's not within it.

SPDIF out to HDMI-supporting graphics c

Hi.
I have an Audigy 2 Value card which I'm trying to connect to my graphics to output HDMI but I can't figure out which way to connect the SPDIF cable.
It's in 2 parts: SPDIF and GND... no markings on the Audigy which goes where, just 2 pins (one marked JP, I think)...
Also, do I need to set this SPDIF Passthrough option? Where do I find this option?
I'm on Vista 32bit and using the latest drivers for SB Audigy 2 Value.
Many thanks for your time. Been getting a little desperate here.

?Enabling HDMI Output
Follow the steps to enable HDMI Output function:
. Find the DVI-to-HDMI adapter that comes with
the package, if provided. Consult your dealer
to purchase the adapter if it is not provided.
2. Attach the DVI-to-HDMI adapter to the DVI
connector.
3. Ensure that the adapter is firmly installed.

4. Use the compliant SPDIF Internal cable to connect both the SPDIF connectors on the
VGA card and your mainboard. Make sure to () plug the orange cable to the SPDIFpin
and the black one to the GND-pin on the mainboard; and (2) plug the other end
(2-pin white connector) of the cable to the SPDIF connector on the VGA card. Note
that wrong installation may cause the damage to the VGA card.
5. Or, use the compliant SPDIF External cable to connect the SPDIF connector on the
VGA card and the SPDIF-out connector on the back panel of the mainboard. Make sure
to plug the end with 2-pin connector of the cable to the SPDIF connector on the VGA
card, and the other end to the SPDIF-out connector on the back panel of the mainboard.Message Edited by ozprostreet on 05-08-2008 0:4 AM

M-Audio wont spdif out from new Itunes

After upgrading to new itunes, itunes simply wont play any longer when sound is set to digital out in system prefs. As long as sound is set to internal speaker before opening itunes, it will play through internal spker. Interestingly, I can still get 5.1 out through the spdif of the Rev sound card using both VLC media player, and Apple DVD player though its unstable.
Other recent changes are QT 7.1.3, and latest M-audio driver 1.4 I think (there are only two ever).
I would like to revert back to my earlier versions of QT, and Itunes but I see the links for the reinstallers have disappeared Hmmmm....
How can I revert back to earlier versions of QT, and Itunes, or better yet make the new ones output digital audio through the spdif of my Rev sound card (it used to work great).
Thanks for any suggestions....
MDD Dual 1Ghz Mac OS X (10.3.9) M-Audio Revolution 7.1
Mods feel free to move this if you feel it would do better elsewhere.

OK, Guess I'll keep helping myself but still feel free to chime in....
Have managed to revert back to ITunes 6, and revert back to my original driver on the Rev card. This has made 5.1 out through the spdif more stable but still no Spdif out through ITunes (simply does nothing when you press play). Works fine with analog out through the Rev card. Now the hard part. Reverting the Quicktime back to 6.5.?.
Have tried similar tactics to the ITnes revision ie deleting receipts but still won't take the 6.5.2 reinstaller. Anything else you can suggest?
Thanks...

Audigy4 Pro - spdif out without the breakout box possib

Hi there,?I have just gotten an audigy pro 4 but it didnt come with the breakout box. Is it still possible to get spdif out of the card WITHOUT the breakout box?I'm guessing no as the outputs dont look like dual function lineout/digital outs?please tell me im wrong!?cheers?cRuNcHiE?

Good lord, you're right!
Why did your 'Pro' come without the breakout box? That's unfortunate as the card itself has reduced connectivity. You'd have to connect the Digital I/O module to the digital port on the external box which apparently you don't have.
Sorry but you need the box! Either that or dump your Audigy 4 Pro and get the regular model. Or better yet an X-Fi XtremeMusic (?50) -- Same quality as the models 5 times its price, and still does it all in hardware (it's the SAME card, comes without the breakout box, BUT you can attach the digital I/O module to it, unlike the Audigy 4 Pro)
Hope that hel
ps.

when i configure the settings to 5. i hear only L & R....

dagdedan,
Check the following article and set the sound card decoder to SPDIF Passthrough.

Also you will need to select a similar option from the DVD playback software so that it could also bypass the decoding to the receiver.
