X-fi extremegamer and 5.1 headset, static issues

0X-fi extremegamer and 5. headset, static issues? Hi,
? Ive had this issue for about a year now and havent acted on it. I have a x-fi extremegamer and a LTB ac97 5. headset. I am running the latest driver for my x-fi. The issue is, whenever there is a loud sound or even if the master volume is turned up to high I get this horrible static sound. I can happen for a windows sound or explosions in a game or movie. An example of how it sounds is like (an example of an explosion in a game).....BO(PSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH). I have tried a new amp for my headset. I have sat for hours trying to find the cause. Of course the lower the volume the less likely the chance of the sound. ?I called LTB tech support and the tech said it may be that the x-fi is overdriving the speakers. Would there be a setting that would help me out. Could it be my x-fi card is shot? It happens in both xp sp3 and Vista Ultimate 32bit. Here's my rig specs.
Abit At8
AMD Athlon x2 4600
4gb gskill ddr 3200
ATI Radeon 4850
320gb sata hd
Creative X-fi extremegamer
Dual boot XP sp3 and Vista Ultimate 32
Thanks for the help.

That post is totally missing the point. It directs stereo to all 6 speakers, which works with any soundcard.
The point is, ALSA can't use the other 4 speakers, with this particular soundcard, because the configuration required is Creative's secret and hasn't been discovered yet.

  • I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic.  And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4.  However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic.

    I can record voice memos fine using the built-in iPhone 4 mic.  And my Bluetooth headset (Jawbone Era) works fine when I leave messages on voice mail systems etc. when calling on the iPhone 4, so it appears my headset mic is fine.  I can also use voice activated dialing, although it fails miserably interpreting numbers.  However, I cannot record voice memos with my Bluetooth mic.   I just get barely audible static.  Any suggestions?   Thanks.

    Hello, did you ever get an answer to your question? I just picked up a Jawbone Era and using on an iPhone 4s running 5.0.1. Seems to work fine on regular calls, but not on the built in Voice memos application. It worked fine on my older Jawbone Icon, but haven't tested on the 4s or iOS 5.
    Thanks!

  • Is there a software in which I can hook up my iPhone 4s to my computer and send and receive text messages and calls (via headset) through my computer?

    Is there a software in which I can hook up my iPhone 4s to my computer and send and receive text messages and calls (via headset) through my computer? Whether it's free or cost money, can someone please give me a name of a program or software that allows me to do this? I can't seem to find anything like this for the iPhone.

    No.

    Hey Ananya,
    I believe what you want to do is possible, but it will not be
    easy.  If you want to add a scroll bar that will scroll the graph
    back and forth but keep the axis set, you would want to add a
    horizontal or vertical scrollbar.  Then you would create an event
    handler for the scroll event.  You would have to manually plot
    different data within this scroll event.  Unfortunately, there is
    not really a built in way to do this with the Measurement Studio plot
    control.

  • IOS 4.2.1: Intermittent Playback and Static Issue Resolution - JVC KD-AVX77

    Hey guys, it appears that iOS 4.2.1 fixes the issue with the intermittent playback and static issues that I was having in my car. I just played two songs continuously with no issues.
    I have the JVC KD-AVX77, and with iOS 4.1, I was having nothing but problems with music playback. It had got to the point that it was intolerable to use my iPhone in my car.
    I am extremely pleased that it seems like Apple took everyone's feedback about this issue, and came up with a fix to it. Too bad that I've already stored my car for the winter.
    Please post your own findings. I know this issue was across multiple head units and car manufacturers.

    Same problem here. I have a 3gs and this intermitent static/hiss/lag happens when i connect through the usb on my toyota prius. This problem did not happen before the latest software upgrade. I have switched out the cables. Also tested on an ipod touch without the software upgrade and had no problem. It's a crazy annoying problem! Sounds a bit like listening to vinyl. I have also tried switching to airplane mode, but that didn't do anything. I have also reset the iphone while connected to the usb (the same way i frequently have to because of an earlier problem i've had with the usb failing to work in the car at all...) and that has not fixed it. I'm going to try connecting via bluetooth today and see what happens - i'm guessing that will be fine, but i don't like to listen via bluetooth.

  • Mac mini and Logitech gaming headset

    I have a 2008 Mac Mini running 10.6.4 and I want to use a Logitech headset for online gaming but I can not make the microphone work. The output works fine, but the input wont register at all. The mic uses two standard jacks, one for input and one for output and they are connected directly to the back of the mini but it get no recognition that a mic is attached at all.
    Anyone know how to get the mini to recognize the mic?

    The line should be the mic option assuming you have a line in and a line out connection on the back of the Mini and the sound out and mic in connectors are plugged in to the right connections.
    I have a USB camera with built in mic ( Playstation Eye ) connected to one of the USB ports which I use for the mic and it shows up below line in in the settings so I don't use the line in unfortunately.
    The line in is meant to be the mic input. I have a late 2009 Mini and it has a line in and a line out as in the picture in the link below. Is yours the same ?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3478
    Having looked at the specs on that page again it seems as if the line in may not support mics after all. The other option would be to get a USB adapter with a female line in and line out and connect the headset to one of the USB ports as this should work. I've done just that on my MacBook Air which is running 10.6.3.
    The Playstation Eye on my Mini is connected the same way. If you can't find an adapter for your existing headset then you might need to consider buying a new one that does have USB as an option.

    You need to put the headset into pairing mode. The phone should then see it even though you have done the forget this device.

  • Xperia Z1, Problem with OTG and Sony PS3 Headset Pulse USB Adapter

    Hi, I did a bit of testing, with headphones Sony PS3 Wireless Headset Pulse , I state that both the adapter and the Sony Pulse Headphones work perfectly on PC and PS3 via the USB adapter , then connect the adapter via USB OTG connection on the Sony Xperia Z1 . With much regret I noticed that the connection between the USB adapter and headphones was established , but the audio was transmitted jerky and scratchy . So I decided to try again via USB OTG headphones Logitech F540 (again, via USB OTG, not via audio jack) , and with much enthusiasm I noticed a connection quick and efficient , without cawing and smoothly ; clear sound as if they were of the headphones connected directly to the Audio Jack with wire . I then decided to try another pair of headphones USB (for PC) , the Creative HS -1200 , connecting via the USB OTG adapter receiver headphones ( ie the same thing I did with Sony and the Logitech ) ; also in this case the Creative Wireless Headphones have received the sound from the USB receiver , without any problem or distortions . Now I want to understand how it might work all this variety of USB devices not Made by Sony , connected via the OTG port , but do not work Devices Made By Sony ? You can solve this problem with the Firmware right?
    The firmware installed in my Xperia Z1 is 14.1.G.1.534 .
    The OTG cable is fully functional with a multitude of devices (USB HD 2.5 Inch, USB pendrive, USB Audio, USB Mouse and keyboard).
    For your info, I already tried to connect the OTG, to a powered USB 2.0 HUB, and on the HUB USB, connect the adapter from Sony and the result is one and the same. The USB adapter will light as the Sony Z1 directly connected to the OTG, but the sound from the speakers gets crackling and jerky. I tried to connect the USB adapter of Sony headphones, and then connect the cable from USB jack to the audio jack of Z1, and of course the audio works perfectly, because it bypasses the USB audio sent by Z1, going to use the 'Jack audio input, and using the USB Headset adapter (Sony Pulse) as a simple transmitter.
    Thank you to anyone reply to this.
    Edit: i have try with samsung S3 and Samsung S4 with OTG and the Sony HeadSet Pulse work fine with the USB Dongle. The problem is on the firmware audio of the Xperia Z1.

    Two possibility 
    The driver is not right
    Or the second i know and it's not possible to fix  , they can happen on any audio device with any pc or other host
    You can try your headset over a usb hub with a extern power source and connect the usb hud on your phone ,  if this not continu it's a power problem with the usb port
    Sometime a usb port cannot provide suffisent power and that affect the audio or any data transfer , a usb hub provide on each port the power they need so when you cronnect your headset that give the good power to him
    Few friends know this issue with a variety of device 
    One use one device on each port on his pc and there happen the pc cannot provide suffisent power for his headset , I suggest to use the minimal on his usb port and he don't have the problem , I suggest to buy a usb port power by an external source and that fixed the problem
    If his your problem no update can fix that for fixing you need a Y cable to give more power to the usb port of your celphone and using a external power source (portable charging , solar panel custom 5v usb port with AA batterie)

  • Kensington LiquidAUX and a bluetooth headset?

    I'm looking at buying the Kensington LiquidAUX to charge my iphone in my car (my car stereo has in aux input). I have a question about taking phone calls with it: the LiquidAUX comes with a remote, which I want to use. The remote is bluetooth. Will the iphone have any issue connecting with both the remote and a bluetooth headset at the same time? I assume it can pair multiple blue tooth devices at the same time, right?
    I want it to be so that I'm playing music through my iphone (via aux input), that I can easily switch over and take phone calls on a bluetooth headset....
    thx.

    Two points here, firstly if you go to Menu > Settings > Connectivity > Bluetooth > if you tap middle icon on top row with two Bluetooth icons - is headset authorised with padlock icon beside it and secondly, if you go to Menu > Settings > Phone > Accessories > is headset set as default (longpress on Headset to reveal this option)?

    Why you need multiple database in one machine?
    Just a note: What we called in database in sql server is called schema in Oracle.
    In Oracle normally we keep only one instance in one machine (multiple also possible) and create multiple users and Schemas.

  • Ichat static issue

    OK so I have been using ichat for a little over a year now and with me being in the Navy it is a great way to keep in touch with my wife and parents. I have an imac at home and a brand spankin new macbook. I talk with many different people through ichat but when i talk to my parents it does some weird things. They have the identical imac that i have but when we chat the audio comes and gos. It will work perfectly fine for like 5-10 min and then it will make like a popping sound and all i hear is static. Then it may or may not come back and forth with the static. Some days (if we are really really lucky) we get no static but then other days we get nothing but. Both of our imac's are running 10.4.11. My macbook is running leopard but and it keeps giving me that error 8 message i have read about in some of the other posts. It only gives me that error with my parents though, no one else. If anyone has any ideas please help!
