Why doesnt X-Fi have on-the-fly AC3 encodi
I dont understand why Creative didnt add on-the-fly AC3 encoding on the X-Fi - considering the cost of the card, and 5million transistors? Surely it could at least be done in Software (drivers) with a bit of help from the CPU?
HDA X-Mystique 7. Gold is only a $80 sound card and has a C-Media 8768 8channel chip that encodes all audio (stereo, games, DVD's, etc..) in the PC to Dolby Digital 7. and outputs it as SPDIF - no analog inputs, no confusing DigitalDIN connectors. Just one optical connector
http://www.nvnews.net/reviews/x-mystique/
And considering all creative cards have major PCI Latency problems on various PC's (my SBLi've cuts out when passthroughing AC3 via Digital TV Tuner software, yet my onboard realtek AC97 chip works perfectly - changed the PCI latencies with no luck), I think I'm totally losing faith in Creatives workmanship Message Edited by Anarchi on 0-24-2005 0:50 PM
Partly because Creative have their heads up their rear ends when it comes to using a digital connection. They're more concerned with analog and do very little with the digital out which Dolby Digital Li've uses. I'm sure most are aware that only the advantage of using the digital out on a sound card and having speakers capable of decoding dd and dts is for movie watching.
Other activities will be limited to stereo which is fine for me I don't need my other speakers around me outputting the same thing. I will however be purchasing a set of speakers without a decoder next time probably Klipschs because I have horrible problems playing dvds in Windows XP MCE 05 with the digital out on(Logitech Z-680 decoding the dd or dts stream).
I didn't have the problems before with my SB Audigy 2 zs, but after responding to my email I sent Creative thinks it's MCE which is hogwash. FYI my problems are out of sync audio/video and glitchy audio when playing dvds I have to sometimes rewind or use the skip chapter button to correct the audio.

Why doesnt my ipad have sound if though mute is off and version 6.1.3
Why doesnt my ipad have sound if even though mute is off please help
It is very possible that your mute is off, but your volume is still all the way down. Try turning up the volume with the side buttons.
If that doesn't work, make sure that the app you are trying to use sound in doesn't have an additional mute option.
If that doesn't work, it is possible that the problem lies within the iPad itself, inside the casing. I suggest going to the genius bar to have it looked at. -

Why canot one cue music on the fly on the iPhone/iTouch?
Why is it that the most basic function of cueing up songs on the fly, in real-time, is not an available function on our iTouch/iPhone's, or am I missing something, mis-informed, or brain dead hder... is that not the case? The iTunes DJ just plain is inconvienent, one does not want to have to run back to our computer and line up some tunes, sync up our gizmo's (iphone or itouch) and load playlists???, and THEN listen to what we want....why are we denied?
Please tell me if I am wrong here, but this seems like the most baseline function that should be in the the forefront of any music listening device, and has been on most, OTHER than apple, is completely ignored...
Please advise.....That's what the "On-the-Go" playlist is for. Learn how to make them and edit them here: http://www.apple.com/iphone/how-to/#ipod.making-on-the-go-playlists

Why does my ipod have on its screen the itunes symbol and the cord with an arrow pointing to the itunes symbol. I can't do anything with my ipod now!
Plug it into iTunes. If that does not work hold the power and home button untill the screen turns off then let go of the power button but KEEP holding the home button... this should bypass the connect to iTunes screen. Hope it helps.

Why doesnt photo booth have the 3 sec delay anymore on iOS devices?
I went to use photo booth last night and it doesn't have the 3 second delay anymore. I was resourceful and was able to stand away from my iPad and take the picture using the earphones + volume. But where did the delay go?

I realize it's a long title, but I wasn't sure if I was going to get more room.
I contacted LiveChat (11:30 EST) and I was told I would have to come back next week - the Adobe Support people were gone for the day (or weekend).
Since I am a monthly Photoshop CC subscriber, I thought updates were automatic. Is the magazine article really talking about CC(2014)?
thanks,
lena) I don't know if the update went wrong because I don't know what the correct current version number is. But my Bridge seems correct (6.1.0.116 x64), as does my Camera Raw (see letter c) below). When I do an update, I am told that all my programs are up-to-date. I will admit that I have not checked my Light Room 5.
b) Based on the Photoshop User magazine, I am missing at least these (all I've tested for so far):
o Flame & Tree generators
o Select-->Focus Area
o Blur Gallery (incl Spin & Path blur)
c) But I do have these:
o Camera Raw as a Filter
o Camera Raw Radial Filter
d) I am using Photoshop CC subscription on an HP desktop computer with 6GB memory.
Once again, it would be great to know what the correct current version numbers are.

I bot the ipad mini with the cellular plan. My old ipad would automatically go to my wifi from my data plan when i was close to it. Or for that matter, any wifi network. Now, I have to manually turn off the data plan to pick up wifi. How can I get to automatically switch over to wifi?
Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or just turn cellular off like you have been doing.

Database logging on-the-fly or not?
Hi,
I'm not sure which option of data logging to choose and what is the advantage/disadvantage of each one.
1) Which option to choose and why?
2) For not on-the-fly option, I noticed that the step 'Log To Database Callback' is activated. I could not figured out what happend when the on-the-fly is selected. The Help indicates that in this case 'Post Result callbacks' is called. Where do I find it?
3) I have a specific requirent that in 'Run Selected Step Using Single Pass' I like to insert the SN both in the report and in the database. Since the preUUT callback is not called in this mode I overcome it by getting the last UUT SN from within the code of my mainSequence (I read it from a file and have the operator approve it). Th
en, I added a statment step (in the sequentialModel) right after the MainSequence where I set 'Locals.UUT.SerialNumber'. With this mechanism, the SN is get into the database only if I don't use on-the-fly!!
My question is: Is it OK to do it the way I described it? Is there a better way?
Thanks
Rafi
TS 3.0Hey Rafi,
I wouldn't suggest adding a parameter to main sequence. Is this something you want to do with every sequence that runs with the single pass entry point (Meaning everytime you select Run Single Pass you want to get the serial number)? If so, then I would suggest modifying the single pass entry point to include this code before the main sequence callback.
If this change is something you want to make just for a specific sequence then adding it to the client sequence is one way to do it. Another way would be to add an addition callback to the single pass entry point - like the preUUT callback in Test UUTs. You would pass as a parameter to this callback Locals.UUT (just like preUUT). This callback could be empty by default but you could add the callback to your client sequence file and set the serial number from there: Parameters.UUT.SerialNumber = Locals.SerialNumber. You could use the preUUT callback in Test UUTs as a guide.
If you can't modify the process model then you should be able to set the serial number from the client sequence file. Use the expression RunState.Root.Locals.UUT.SerialNumber to reference the serial number. For example I added a statement step to my main sequence that has the expression: RunState.Root.Locals.UUT.SerialNumber = "myserialnumber". This set the serial number from the client sequence.
I hope this helps!! Please let me know if you have any additional questions on any of these approaches.
Regards,
Sarah Miracle

Testand write to database only with 'On the Fly'
I'm writing all results to an Access database.
But results are written only if 'On the Fly' is set.
Why?
OferHi Ofer,
When writing to a database, as I'm sure you know, on the fly will write all of your results during sequence execution. That said, all of your results should be written at the end of the execution at the LogToDatabase callback if you do not have on the fly checked. This behavior is built-in to TestStand, so if it is not working, it generally means that something on your TestStand system was changed.
Have you altered your sequence file or added any callbacks to your sequence file? What process model are you using?
I would suggest setting a breakpoint at the LogToDatabase callback and stepping through the code to see what is called. I believe this will put us on the track towards a solution.
Regards,
Matt M.
