X-Fi Platinum and mixed digital

Hello,
i have x-fi platinum and dtt 2500 speakers which are 5. dolby digital speakers while used through spdif out and 4 channels when used through analog outputs, in speakers panel i have 4/4. speakers configuration.
i have two problems:
. when i am using speakers with digitall output without dd or dts sound output is mixed exactly in two channel:
front left with rear left and front right with rear right
in my last music card audigy 2 zs i had only front channels in digital output in the same configuration!!
2.i want to decode Dolby Digital by external amplifier and DTS by X-fi.
in entertainment mode there are two different menus for each standard but it is not possible to change options like i want because switching something in anyone menu switches the same options in second menu
how can i pass this problems?

I know some Line 6/Variax's include a DI box with balanced XLR out... if yours does include this, just make sure its inabled - if it DOESNT include a DI pass, you may have to purchase one. This solved my problem (acoustic/electric guitars), which produced scratchy, dull output similar to yours.
I wouldnt spend too much on it though. Something like this would do. : http://www.americanmusical.com/item--i-BEH-GI00--s-di-box.html

Audigy 2 ZS and external digital mixer and digital cd pla

Guru's,
I've got a problem getting a sound from my Audigy 2 ZS card in combination with an external digital mixer and a digital cd player. One channel of the mixer receives data from the PC (Audigy 2 ZS) and one channel receives data from the CD player. The mixer is connected to a dolby surround system- dvd player that connected to the speakers. When I try the digital out I don't get any sound, when I use one of the analog ports I do get a sound. What is here the ideal set-up and why can't I use the digital out ?
Here's also a picture:<IMG src="http://www.delier.demon.nl/Conf.bmp">

Do you mean, you do not get digital out from Audigy?
If yes, then have you set Audigy for digital output?

Mix digital out and out in one task

Hello,
is it possible to create a task that can be used for PWM output and setting of digitals outputs at the same time?
I have a NI-USB 6210 that provides two counters and additional digital outputs.
I have already implemented some code that generates PWM signals on both counters.
At all, I have created one task, containing both counters and I am able to set the duty cycle by using DAQmxWriteCtrFreq.
Now, I also want to write the digital outputs.
I first tried to create a second task that handles the outputs, but I got an error (sorry, forgot the error number) that says that the task can not be created because the digital output resource is already in use (by the PWM task).
Therefore, I think that I have to add the digital output channels to my PWM task, so that there is only one task that handles all my digital signals (counter and bits).
Am I right here or not?
Furthermore, if I am right, how can I set the digital outputs?
Maybe DAQmxWriteDigitalLines is the correct line but how can I tell this function, which channels should be set?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
Christian

Hi CristianEC,
i think the error number was -200022, because the PFI lines for the two PWM counter look all your digital ports.
You can see this if you look on into the pinout for your device. You need an device with some additional digital ports.

It is actually possible to record and mix a complete album using GB?

in a commercial sense? (moving this from another thread as not to hijack)
Here is a scenario. Take an artist like Jose Gonzalez http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4_4abCWw-w&feature=fvw Is GB a capable enough environment to record and process music like this and perhaps even host the necessary mastering plugs to finish?
I have seen many comments about when it would be right to step up to Logic and they mainly revolve around needing something perhaps like the comping feature for example. These are aids in time saving and for rescuing imperfect takes. However, is there anything inherently wrong or uncommercial or amateurish in believing that GB is all I need to record and produce my self funded independent commercial release?
or .... whats the stigma?

For the most part, I think the answer is no. There are always exceptions, and GB can do a lot, but the exceptions in which people have used GB to fully produce a released album are statistically rare for legitimate reasons.
Someone brought up the Springsteen album made on a cassette as an example that you don't need professional gear to make a professional album. That's true if you're, you know, BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN! Ravel wrote the melody for Bolero on a napkin, I believe. Does that mean napkins are sufficient for notating music and musicians should abandon staff paper?
Then there's the argument that GB is more sophisticated than what many albums of the past were made on. That's true in many respects. But the sheer quality of analog components used in classic albums far surpasses the limitations of the type of consumer interfaces typically paired with GB, compounded by the inability of digital simulations to replicate their analog precursors (yet). Yeah, the Beatles may only have had a limited number of tracks, but the caliber of audio feeding those tracks was spectacular. (Aside from the music).
I'm not dissing GB.
Quite the opposite.
I love GB, use it, advocate its use, praise it to the high heavens.
GB is revolutionary and democratizing.
But the features in GB don't reach into the kind of pro features necessary to produce a typical commercial release.
Not that GB isn't a great starting point, and I think a number of artists do just that. Start in GB, but the tracks are then imported into a more full featured digital audio workstation where they can be more adequately mixed.
Somewhat motivated by this thread, I tried to produce a song this past weekend entirely in GB. I plugged expensive hardware into it - high end mics, preamps, compressors, etc. So it sounded pretty good.
The wall I hit was when I needed to edit. I need to edit some parts together and couldn't really do it without Logic's more precise editing tools, cross fading, etc. The machine I was using didn't have Logic on it, so I was all intent on staying in GB, but the song was hobbled by lack of a more complete feature set. Of course, maybe if the song didn't need those edits I wouldn't have hit a wall, but it did.
I also didn't have the plugins that I normally have in Logic available, and they would have helped. I suppose someone could invest in a lot of plugins and use them in GB, although most people who make the plugin investment would already upgrade to Logic because it makes economic sense - Logic is a bargain considering everything it comes with before you'd start adding 3rd party plugs. So it'd be weird to have, say, a thousand dollars worth of plugins and still be on GB. But I suppose you could do it... but still... you'd be missing all the editing and mixing features of Logic which are a level of magnitude more robust than GB.
I have seen many comments about when it would be right to step up to Logic and they mainly revolve around needing something perhaps like the comping feature for example. These are aids in time saving and for rescuing imperfect takes. However, is there anything inherently wrong or uncommercial or amateurish in believing that GB is all I need to record and produce my self funded independent commercial release?
or .... whats the stigma?
People can produce fantastic work in GB and, as an empty vessel, if you fill it up with top grade music, that's what matters most. But if you're serious about releasing your music above a certain threshold of production standards, the type of tools that come with Logic, ProTools, Digital Performer, Cubase, etc. start to get fairly essential fairly quick.
It's not a stigma. If you can do it in GB, if anything, that's kind of cool. But try asking this question in the Logic forum and see what kind of answers you get from musicians who regularly use Logic. Seriously. See what kind of points Logic users would make to advocate bumping up to Logic if your goal is to release a commercial production.

While using my iPhone the system behavior changed where I now have to click on the app to select it, then double click to launch it. Same goes for entering in my password to access the phone and entering digits to make a phone. I am also having trouble swiping the screen to move to the next page. This is no longer working. I did not change any settings, the phone just started behaving this way. Any ideas on how to revert back to the single click selection/launch? Any assistant is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Edge has very clear restrictions, one being that you must have 6 months of clean payment history which you don't. Either wait until April 14, or good luck at Sprint.
I am unsure how it can be determined the payment mix up was the fault of CS, but regardless, the mix up was done. There can be any number of reasons why a payment could be missed without any fault on your part, however you are still the responsible party for the account and must live with the repercussions.

Get DTS and Dolby Digital work

Download ffdshow tryout filters from [url="http://sourceforge.net/projects/ffdshow-tryout">here[/url] these filters are simply great for Vista they were actually written for it unlike previous versions of ffdshow.
Thanks to those babies I have full XviD x264 and so on playback even in Media Center. Vista still crashes due to the driver issue though still waiting for proper drivers from Creative for my overpriced Audigy 2zs platinum pro.
Funnily enough the drivers dated March 6th check out to be dated as the 2th of February if you view them through Device Manager, so that's over 2 months of problems and not a single driver update. Waiting and hoping.Message Edited by euphoria_aus on 04-9-200703:52 AM

Hello,
I purchased a mini to TOSLINK optical cable to connect my GT70 0NC to my Logitech Z-5500 5.1 speaker system and I was wondering if the ALC892 supports Dolby Digital Live. I'm able to get DTS and Dolby Digital to work just fine, but I don't see an option to change the default format of the digital output in the Realtek HD Audio Manager to Dolby Digital Live. I'm running Windows 7 64 bit with the latest audio drivers available.
Thanks
I hate saying this.
Do yourself a favor, go buy an Asus Xonar U3, plug it in, and you will be much happier.
I have a Z680 (precursor to the Z5500, pretty much the same thing though), and I couldn't stand how bad the Realtek HD performed. The Asus Xonar does a much better job. You hook it up, set it to output to the 'speakers', but have your TOSLINK cable connected, and you get upconverted dolby digital live sound output. Couldn't ask for anything better. The U3 only runs about $40, so it's not a huge investment.

ID CS4 and Adobe Digital Editions

One reason I purchased ID CS4 was for the ability to create ebooks using ADE. However, my first attempt to export to ADE has been far from successful.
The project is a 152-page book. It was "created" in ID CS4 and is straight text except for the publisher's logo, which appears on the title page. Each chapter is its own file, as is each element of the front matter. Three fonts are used in the publication: Arial, Formata, and Palatino. The Formata and Palatino fonts are OT fonts; they were newly purchased as OT fonts for this client. Each use of italic or bold in the book's text, excluding heads, is by a character style that includes the font family name. For example, if the text is supposed to be Palatino Italic, the character style includes both bits of information, a generic Italic is not used.
I combined all of the elements of the project into a single ID Book, which is what I used to update numbering, etc. When I export to PDF from the Book, everything works fine. When I export to Adobe Digital Editions from the Book, the following occurs:
1. Arial and Palatino are embedded but Formata is not.
2. The first and last files of the Book (i.e., the title page and the References) appear in the ePub file and are viewable in the ADE viewer, but everything between those two files, including all of the text chapters, are empty files that appear as blank pages in the ADE viewer.
What am I doing wrong? How do I
a. Get Formata embedded?
b. Get the complete project into an ePub file?
Another thought: Would the way to do this be to do each chapter as a separate export to ADE and then combine each of the separate files into a single ePub file? If so, how would one do this? I've noted that when creating an ePub file several additional informational files are created. It isn't clear to me how one would combine that information.
Also, is there a good source and/or book (or several sources and/or books) that gives step-by-step instruction information on turning a project into an ePub file? Although this project has no graphics, tables, etc., future projects will have numerous graphics, tables, etc. and so any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

You're not actually doing anything wrong. You're experiencing a bug. Hopefully it will be fixed in an upcoming update to InDesign CS4.
The cause of the problem comes down to the spaces in the name of the font you've used in your document (i.e. Myriad Pro Bold). If an embedded font contains spaces in its name, it won't be used and Adobe Digital Editions will use its default font instead. The problem can be overcome by directly editing the EPUB file. I use Oxygen to open up the EPUB file directly, but you can also change the .epub file extension to .zip and then unarchive the package to gain access to the various files within it. Once you've opened the EPUB file, you need to modify three things: the template.css file, encryption.xml file, and the font files.
Template.css
At the top of the CSS file, you'll see font face declarations for each font you've used in your document. If your font(s) has spaces in its name, you'll notice that a %20 has replaced the space. Change each instance of the %20 to a hyphen. Here's an example:
@font-face {
font-family: Myriad Pro;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
src:url(Fonts/MyriadPro%20Bold.otf);
Change to:
@font-face {
font-family: Myriad Pro;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
src:url(Fonts/MyriadPro-Bold.otf);
Encryption.xml
For each type style you've used in your document, there will be a <enc:CipherData> element. If your font(s) has spaces in its name, you'll notice that a %20 has replaced the space here as well. Change each instance of the %20 to a hyphen. Here's an example:
<enc:CipherData>
<enc:CipherReference URI="OEBPS/Fonts/MyriadPro%20Regular.otf"/>
</enc:CipherData>
Change to:
<enc:CipherData>
<enc:CipherReference URI="OEBPS/Fonts/MyriadPro-Regular.otf"/>
</enc:CipherData>
Font Files:
Within the EPUB package is a folder called "Fonts," where all the embedded fonts reside. You need to rename the files by replacing the spaces with hyphens.
That's all there is to it. After editing and saving the files, you'll have to rearchive the package and change the .zip extension back to .epub. If you use Oxygen to edit the package, there is no rearchiving necessary. You can also use the free PDFXML Inspector, but I definitely prefer Oxygen since it provides many more tools and its not so clunky.

Hallo ,why is it that when I delete a photo ,which is backed up by time machine and western digital external hard drive , that I am able to restore the photo okay but not the titles and descriptions . I have a Macbook 4.1, mac osx 10.5.8 . Iphoto 7.1.5 ,

QUESTION.
Hallo , my question is ;whenever I delete a photo and restore it through Time machine and Western digital external hard drive , I am able to restore the photo but not the titles and descriptions . Western Digital inform me that it isn't their external hard drive problem and suggest that it is an Apple software problem ?
I am using a Macbook 4.1 , with Mac OSX 10.5.8 . I photo 7.1.5 , last modifie4d 01/05/2010 -universal . Should I be upgrading Iphoto ?
I hope that someone is able to help in this matter , as i have to restore 12000 photos !
Thanking you in anticipation.

Hallo Kieth ,
I am not quite ready to restore the full iphoto library , as I have days of work re - imputting titles,descriptions and enhancement . I hope that your suggestion works , as I use my Macbook basically to work with digital photography. Through time , I will need to delete my library to recover more disc space and I would hate to have to spend more time re - imputting titles and descriptions all over again .
Thanks for your interest and advice.

P965 Platinum and E6600 won't go to 3GHz

Hello,
I have a MSI P965 Platinum and a E6600. Currently I have two sticks of Corsair Value Select 1GB PC-5300 RAM, rated at 667Mhz 5-5-5-15.
The E6600's stock is 2.4GHz, and I want to go to 3GHz. This should be dead simple - not only can the E6600 usually clock much higher, but 3GHz will only require a 333Mhz FSB (9 x 333), which means my RAM doesn't have to be overclocked at all since it is rated for 667MHz DDR2. I should be able to obtain 3GHz with a nice comfortable 1:1 FSB:RAM ratio without stressing the Corsair Value ram beyond specifications.
However, it just won't work. I seem to be having RAM instabilities at 667MHz 5-5-5-15 and 333Mhz FSB. The reason I say RAM is because Memtest86 freezes, and SuperPi has a 'not exact in round' error in 16M and 32M - which apparently means there is a problem with memory stability. Now, I know this sounds like the RAM is faulty, but I don't think it is, because when I run stock 266MHz FSB, the system is fine at 4:5 divider to make the RAM 667Mhz. It's only when I increase the FSB (and not the RAM at all) does the system become unstable. At 266MHz FSB and 667MHz RAM, my system will pass any stress test, but not at 333Mhz FSB and 667Mhz RAM.
I've upped the CPU voltage 3 notches to around 1.350 or so under load. My ram is at 1.9v, although I tried 1.95v too. I didn't touch the chipset voltage (should I?). My temperatures seem ok - I'm only using the stock Intel cooler, but it should be able to handle 3GHz fine. It hovers around 48c idle, 60c load according to Everest Ultimate (before it crashes in SuperPi), so it doesn't appear to be overheating while overclocked. Not great tempts but acceptable.
However, there are two things I've noticed:
- In the BIOS, if I select CAS to be 5 or 6, CPUZ still reports my ram at CAS3 (which my RAM can't do at 667Mhz), or 3-5-5-15. However if I select CAS4, it reports CAS4 properly (still unstable though), or 4-5-5-15. This is only a problem when I overclock the FSB - at stock FSB, the CAS timings are reported correctly. It could be an issue with CPUZ, but I doubt it. If there is a bug with the P965 Platinum not setting the CAS right when overclocking, this might explain why I'm having RAM stability issues even though I'm not overclocking the RAM - i.e. because the board is not using the right CAS setting. Is this a known bug? Also, I tried Auto SPD but it tried to use 4-4-4-12 at 667MHz (again, which this RAM won't do).
- When I run 333Mhz FSB and 667MHz RAM, the POST shows some sort of error message about the board not supporting CPU's with a 267Mhz FSB or something (which is weird, because 266Mhz is the stock speed *shrug*), and that it's resetting it. Sorry I can't recall the exact error off hand, but I can try the overclock again and provide it later on if needed. Anyway, despite the error message, the overclock still applies - it will boot into Vista 64-bit at 3Ghz, it just won't pass any stress test.
Is it possible a BIOS update could help me? I run V1.4, and even though I know there is a V1.8 now, no newer version mentions anything about fixing overclocking issues. I don't like to update my BIOS unless necessary (and I don't even have a floppy drive anyway, would need to figure out how to do it via USB).
Thanks for any help. I'm certain my RAM isn't faulty and I'm certain my CPU should be able to reach 3Ghz surely. I'm also pretty sure heat isn't an issue. I think maybe the board is trying to force CAS3 when FSB overclocking or something? That's my guess anyway.

Thanks for the reply!
Sorry, I should have mentioned I was definitely achieving 1:1 - I recall the confusion over why my RAM was trying to be 800+MHz at 667 and then I realized 533 actually meant 1:1, 667 4:5 etc, so I am definitely running at 533/1:1. I doubt this RAM would even post at 800+ MHz.
So updating the BIOS may help? Ok thanks, I guess I will update then. I don't see it in the "fix" list though on the site. Is there a way I can get a *full* fix/enhancement list for 1.5, 1.6, 1.7 and 1.8 so I know exactly what I'm fixing going from 1.4 to 1.8?
Also, does MSI support LiveUpdate BIOS in Windows Vista 64 yet? And if not, is there an official way to update via a USB stick? (no FDD here).

Confused - whats the difference between K8N Neo4 SLI Platinum and Diamond??

MSI web page says the Diamond has:
"Silicon Image's SATA RAID supports another 2 SATA II ports. Transfer rate is up to 300MB/s."
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/products/mainboard/mbd/pro_mbd_detail.php?UID=638
their Platinum page doesn't list the Silicone Image raid as a feature on the Platinum.
I have K8N Neo4/SLI Platinum and it has the Silicone Image raid - I'm using it now.
Can anyone explain this?
Another question: for both boards it shows: "NV RAID (Software) - - RAID function available for ATA133 + SATA HD drives or 2 SATA HD"
How can the Raid fuction work for ATA133 drives since the cables for SATA and PATA are different? What do the mean Raid for 133?
Thanks!!!

Audigy Platinum and 56K PCI modem confl

I have had modem connection problems so I reformatted the hard dri've and reloaded the OS to get a clean start. Now, I have a conflict with the Audigy Platinum and 56K PCI modem. The sound card works great until I dial-out on the modem - at that point there is either no sound or a high-pitched tone is heard when a sound is played. Also, if I am activly connected to the internet and play a sound, the connection will drop and the modem will refuse to reconnect with various errors (no dial tone or port already open). The only way to reset the sound card and modem is to reboot. If I disable the Audigy card under device manager, the modem works great - connects and reconnects fine. BTW, this is the third PCI modem I have tried, all by different manufactures and chipsets, so I don't think it is a modem problem.
Some system specs:XP Home SP 2Audigy Platinum with the latest production drivers availableUS Robotics 56K PCI modem model #5660AAsus A7N8X deluxe motherboard with on-board sound disabled
The Audigy card is installed in a PCI slot that is not shared, also the Audigy card is using IRQ 5 and the modem is on IRQ using COMM port 3. Everything looks fine under Device Manager (no unknown devices or devices with errors). MSINFO32 shows no device conflicts.
Has anyone seen this before? Any workarounds? Any idea why the Audigy card would conflict with the modem like this?
Thanks,Terry C.

I updated the BIOS to the latest ASUS release, 008, and it seemed to resolve the problem.
