X-Fi ExtremeMusic Digital In

Hi @all,?I have a little question about the Flexijack connector. I'm watching TV with my PC. Now I have an external digital cable receiver (DVB-C) used for normal TV. The video signal runs through a?coax cable to the video-in of my graphics card. The DVB-C receiver deli'vers an ac3 signal over an electrical digital out (coax). It is possible to connect a coax cable (with an adapter) to the flexijack to get the ac3 signal decoded by the x-fi and send to my 5. soundsystem (connected directly the the soundcard)?Or?can the Flexijack only be used for digital?output?If this config doesn't work I will have to save more money for the plantinum version. ...

Thanks, jutapa. Got it sorted in the meantime. First of all, the settings on the X-Fi, in Audio Creation Mode open the console and click the Settings button in the bottom left-hand corner, then set as follows::
-- "Master Sampling Rate": 44.1 kHz
-- Check "Enable Bit-Matched Playback"
-- Select "Digital I/O"
-- Under Decoder, select "On (External Decoder)"
Then open the the MOTU Audio Console, and on the "828mk2" tab, select "Optical Input Off", and on the "General" tab choose "SPDIF" as the clock source. This was the important bit, because the coax inputs on the 828 are only enabled when the optical input is disabled.
This setup allows me to record Soundfonts digitally along with the multiple other inputs of the 828. The only bit I don't know, is whether a 24-bit soundfont is presented with full 24-bit resolution at the X-Fi digital output.

  • DTS 6.1 discrete by x-fi extrememusic soundc

    hi everyone i have recently take x-fi extrememusic sound card , i would like to know whether my sound card is able to play DTS 6. discrete mode or it uses the DTS 6. Matrix method for playing the DVD which are given the certification of DTS 6. Discrete . can any one tell me whether my sound card fully supports both formats or only one if so which one.
    i am using creative T7900 7. speakers .

    When you play a movie the thing i like about the xfi soundcard is a small feature that creative introuced it tells me the audio stream its playing (an icon at the bottom near the clock) and it only displays for a few seconds.
    Most moi'ves i brough advertise Dolby digital EX or DTS ES. When i play them i find mostly the creative decoder tells me otherwise. The creative decoder identifies the stream and displays it at the bottom and i find that most movies that advertise the DTS ES or DD EX are not Dolby digital EX or DTS ES but just dolby digital 5. or DTS 5.. The only movies i have so far that are dolby digital EX are starwars episode 5 and 6 (despite ,2,3 and 4 claim to be but not), the punisher, and the only DTS 6. so far is top gun (my movie collection is small as well). but unless the creative decoder is identiftying the audio streams wrong which i doubt i so far. only some of my movies state the correct audio stream on the dvd.
    Have a look at the icon that appears when playing the movie and see if it says either dolby digital, dolby digital ex, dts surround or dts surround es, if its displays either Dolby Digital EX or DTS Surround ES then they are 6. streams if they are not then they are 5. which might be why your not hearing anything out the back speaker.Message Edited by Stargazer on 0-06-2006 :5 AM

  • Searching for sound card, which decodes Dolby Digital from S/PDIF-IN

    As I wrote in the topic headline, I'm currently searching for a sound card, which decodes Dolby Digital from the S/PDIF input.
    I.e. a DolbyDigital signal comes from an external device (here Set-Top-Box/Media-Recei'ver) and the sound card should send the signal to my analogue speakers.
    Currently I have a Creative X-Fi ExtremeMusic, this card does not support this.
    And yes, I read the thread "Digital Connection...".
    Thanks for any replies!

    HRe: Searching for sound card, which decodes Dolby Digital from S/PDIF-INE I'm still doing some research on this topic, although I'm already searching for 2 years now with no real solution. Several people say, that I can do that, what I described in the first posting, by using an I/O console from Creative. But Creative (support) says, it is impossible at all, they don't have any products, which can do this.
    Can anyone tell me, whether it's possible or not? Important fact: I use Windows XP, not Vista. And I don't want to use modded drivers. I want to use the latest official ones.
    The new soundcard "Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Fatalty Champion Series" has an I/O dri've. If I have this, can I decode DolbyDigital from S/PDIF-IN, if I plug the optical cable into the soundcard? Because this console seems to have no optical input.

  • Extrememusic for input (optical) and Onboard audio for output (HDMI). Can this be do

    I have a MB with onboard SPDIF for HDMI. When I install my extrememusic card it takes over and doesn't allow HDMI audio output anymore. But I want the extrememusic card for digital audio input (video capture) And the onboard audio for the SPDIFoutput (HDMI). Is there a way to use both the card and the onboard audio for these purposes?

    It's quite hard to advice without having the equal system in hands.
    Which one you have set to be as the preferred playback device and preferred recording device in system audio settings? Maybe onboard for playback and X-Fi for recording is maybe the way to go but, I can't say if this changes anything there?
    X-Fi also has Audio Creation Mode which is maybe the best for this type input connection ... use bit-matched mode if possible and ASIO.
    Depends on what you want to do there but, there are also some software you could use for to route signal from one card into other if this would be a sort of resolution (Virtual Audio Cable/Repeteater and Velbac comes into mind ... you should find links for these by searching this forum).

  • Does ExtremeMusic card has SPDIF_EXT internal connect

    I have CambridgeSoundWork FPS2000 surround sound speaker. Two of the hookup option is . connect directly to Digital I/O of the sound card,?and 2. use the supplied SPDIF bracket and connect a cable directly to SPDIF_EXT on the sound card. I have x-fi extrememusic sound card, my question is:. Does this sound card has digital i/o output? Is this the green labled line out jack?2. Does this card internally has SPDIF_EXT connector (male)? The cable I see it look like 2 pin (female type). Thanks

  • X-Fi digital out problem with FPS 2000 speak

    I just upgraded my old SB Li've! to X-Fi ExtremeMusic.
    I connected my 4. digital FPS 2000 Cambridge Soundwork speakers to the digital i/o port at the back of the sound card, but I could only hear from front speakers. Nothing from the rear speakers.
    Also when I run the speaker connection wizard, after I pick digital output, the program only allows me to select either headphone or 2. speakers even though I connected to my FPS2000 which is 4. speakers.
    Is it because my orginal mini-plug to DIN converter cable from FPS2000 is a 3-pole only and X-Fi digital out port is 4-pole? If that's the case, is it possible to buy a 4-pole mini-plug to DIN converter cable which works for FPS2000?
    Will this cable http://us.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=3&subcategory=58&product=0375 &nav=systemRequirements
    work?

    Actually you are having exactly the same problem as other users with DTT3500 or 5700 speakers. The X-Fi does not support the DIN connection. The digital-out of the X-Fi is the industry standard SPDIF. This means only 2-channels can be sent!
    You should connect your FPS speakers to the analog outs of the soundcard. Quality will be anyway better, as the X-Fi includes modern DACs at 24-bits, which is not the case of the FPS2000 speakers.

  • Is there a work-around to enable Digital Photo Pro on the Microsoft Surface Pro ????

    Is there a way to use Digital Photo Pro on the Microsoft Surface Pro?
    As I understand the problem  DPP is unable detect the screen resolution of the tablet ( the defauilt res of the tablet
    is 1920 x1080) with a minimum of 1024 x768.
    It would be usful if one could type in your working screen res into at startup if that's the only problem
    ___I've looked at other screen drivers from Intell but I realize if I could install thrm I'de lose the touch functionallity
    Are there any other ideas out there???
    Thanks  artB

    Canon DPP is Canon provided application for desktop/laptop computers and they don't have a version for any tablets as far as I'm aware (not even iOS or Android versions).
    But there are other photo editing programs that would work.  I have an iPad.  While Apple has their own photo software (which isn't going to work on a Windows tablet) Adobe has an app called PS Touch.  
    PS Touch isn't nearly as full featured as Photoshop.  It limits the image resolution (it resizes any images that you import to it so they don't exceed the max resolution) but it does have most of the commonly used adjustments.  So if a person were just trying to get something out, it works in a pinch.
    One other catch is that PS Touch can't deal with RAW images... so it's JPEG only.  But I can import JPEGs off the card into the iPad and then edit them -- not as well as I can if they're on a regular computer, but this is what I'ved when I'm away for a weekend with my camera.

  • Preview of loops has effect on it (digital delay)??

    Previewing my drum loops (all music loops actually) ... I'm picking up digital delay. Where is it coming from?
    When I drag the loop to the arrange window the effect is still there ... even though there is no effect assigned to that particular audio track.
    I'm just getting up to speed on this Logic update. So I'm at a loss. Any help would be most appreciated. Thank you.
    Ben

    Aha!!
    This is only happening when I am using the beat mapping. I have a piece of audio I've 'beat-mapped'. Now I want to add a loop to it. But the loop previews, and the loops when I add them to the audio track, have some weird digital delay effect on them.
    This isn't happening if I'm NOT doing a beat map. Everything is normal.

  • Re: Satellite L - How to connect my digital video cam?

    I have a Canon digital video camera (bought in 2004). I have been using it to transfer movies onto my other Toshiba laptop, but there is no place to plug in on my new laptop. I did use a iEEE1394 but it doesn't work on this one.
    What alternative is there?
    Also on turning on the laptop I get a message saying TOSHIBA SERVICE STATION NOT WORKING and proceeds to solve it but nothing happens.
    Any suggestions pls.

    Hey,
    What notebook model you have it exactly? Some notebooks dont have firewire port but if your camera has USB port can use this port. As far as I know all notebooks have USB port
    > Also on turning on the laptop I get a message saying TOSHIBA SERVICE STATION NOT WORKING and proceeds to solve it but nothing happens.
    You should try to reinstall Service Station, I think this should work. Just download the newest version of Toshiba service station on official Toshiba website and install it:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
    But dont forget to remove the old version first before you install the newest one. ;)

  • How can I display & split the audio & video from the same digitized clip?

    I digitized a scene into iMovie that I edited on a professional system which I don't have access to anymore. The whole scene is 1 clip. Now I see a few tweaks that I want to make, so I was hoping to do them in iMovie.
    I want to "pull up" the audio in one section - meaning I want to take cut about 20 frames of audio from the end of a shot, and then move all the other audio up to fill the hole. To compensate for the missing 20 frames, I'll cut video off the head of the next shot. Some call this prelapping. Some call it an L-cut. Some call it asymmetrical trimming. Either way, I can't figure out how to do it in iMovie.
    My clip appears in the timeline as one track - a single track that contains the video and 2 audio tracks. How can I display the audio that's tied to the video on its own track? Then I think I could split audio & video wherever I wanted and trim things up - but I can't figure out how to do it.
    Am I asking too much of this software?
    BTW, I never see the option to "Split audio clip at playhead". I'm not displaying clip volume or waveforms. Choosing to display waveforms doesn't show me anything. Maybe iMovie thinks I'd only want to see waveforms of audio that isn't tied to my video-and-audio clips?
    Thanks in advance for any help...

    Jordon,
    "Am I asking too much of this software?"
    No, you're not.
    You first want to select your clip(s) and choose Advanced>Extract Audio.
    This will copy the audio from the video clip and place it on one of the two separate audio tracks while lowering the audio level to zero in the original video track.
    You can now edit and move the audio independently of the video.
    With the audio clip selected, you'll find you now have access to Edit>Split Selected Audio Clip at Playhead.

  • On a PC with separate logins, do I need a separate Digital IDs?

    I recently updated the Digital Edition to 2.0.  My wife and I share our home PC with each having our own log in.  I can download and open books on my Kobo.  But, my wife has a problem opening a downloaded book on her Nook.  She gets an ERROR DIALOG on the Nook User not activated. We did not have this problem with the older Digital Edition.  When I look at her Digital Edition "HELP", I cannot view the Digital ID but I can when I look at my Digital Edition.  Does she have separately download a Digital Edition? It worked before?

    ADE 2.0 has problems with some ereaders (and with lots of other things).
    I suggest you revert to the older and more reliable previous version.
    There are lots of bugs in ADE2.0.  Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.
    (You can have them both installed at once if you like.)
    Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.

  • If e-mail is moderately long if I delete a letter or digit the cursor disappears, have to recover it, all deleted letters or digits appear at end of e-mail

    If I type a moderately long e-mail (I haven't counted the letters/digits to determine how long), then suddenly letters won't appear. If make a typing errors, and backspace over or delete the error/s, the cursor will disappear. It's not anywhere in the body of the e-mail (or anywhere else I've noticed). I can get it to reappear by highlighting every word in the e-mail, then undoing that.
    All the letters/digits I've deleted reappear at the end of the e-mail--but only in the e-mail received (by the recipient). If I save the e-mail as a draft, when I look at the draft, the I'll see the deleted letters/symbols at the end of the e-mail. If I click on edit, they disappear. But recipients see all of them, regardless of whether I edit the e-mail or not.
    The last time I asked this "question", I was told to update. That was probably 5 updates ago. There has been no change.
    I don't know if the problem persists in safe mode because I have forgotten to switch into safe mode every time I use TB. Sometimes I remember to run TB in safe mode but don't have reason to type a long e-mail.
    I'm really tired of this problem.
    OS is win 7 pro w/service pack 1.

    May I ask why? Have you learned that that specific problem is solved in a pre-release version? So far I've upgraded once on your advice, now I've upgraded again to 31. Problem's still there. Unless I'm told that the problem's been solved for sure in a latter version, I'm not going to upgrade because sometimes the upgrades bring problems w/them for a low tech user. I don't want to chat, etc., I just want to be able to send and receive e-mails.
    I'm still working with the security software people re: some continuing issues w/FF.
    I'd like to spend more time doing my work, or communicating w/friends, not dealing w/software problems.
    Is there anyway of my finding out what, if any update, includes whatever is needed to solve my specific problem? I use Win7 Pro, SP1, 3.40 Gz processor, 3.19 Gb usable RAM, 64 bit OS. I don't know what other information is needed.

  • IPod Touch Recognized as a Digital Camera in Windows 7 (x64) - SOLUTION!

    Hi guys
    After several days I finally found the solution to this with some help from Apple 2nd level support.
    Symptom: iPod Touch is not connecting to iTunes. Under My Computer you find the iPod as a Portable Device > Digital Camera
    Cause: Windows 7 wasn't able to install the right Driver for your Touch.
    Solution:
    1. Uninstall all the Apple software via Control Panel:
    - iTunes
    - Quicktime
    - Apple Software Update
    - Apple Mobile Device Support
    - Bonjour
    - Apple Application Support
    2. Delete all the directories related to Apple (Including Apple,iPod, iTunes, Quicktime and Apple Computer -if they are there-) under:
    - C:\Program File\Apple
    - c:\Program Files (x86)
    - C:\users\<USER>\AppData\Local
    - C:\users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming
    3. Restart
    4. Reinstall iTunes (Right click and run as Administrator) but THIS IS THE TRICK!! change the installation path to C:\program files\iTunes (Remove x86) !
    5. Connect ipod
    It will still be a Camera..don't worry..
    6. Go to My Computer > right click > Manage > Device Managers > Find your ipod under the Portable Devices
    7. Right Click > Update driver > Specific location and browse C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device support\Drivers
    8. After succesfully installed this driver you will be able to see your iPod Touch in iTunes
    Enjoy !
