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.

Xbox 360 - Optical line-in pass through 5.1 to optical line-out on an iMac?

Hi guys, i'm in the market to purchase a new 5.1 surround sound system for my room and the following issue has been purplexing me.
IS it possible to daisy chain my XBOX 360 to my iMac with optical cables and pass through 5.1 surround sound to the decoder on the sound system?
So i'd have an optical cable from my xbox to the line-in on my iMac. I'd use Rogue Amoeba's Line-In app to pass the sound through to the optical line-out and through to the sound system.
(I know it works using stereo sources, but i don't know about 5.1 digital sound.)
I also know i could just connect them both to separate optical ports on the sound sytem, but i'm trying to listen to 2 sources at the same time. (5.1 from XBOX and music from iMac).
Any thoughts on this are appreciated!

I'm convinced things work like this:
The SBX-Fi receives the encoded SPDIF.<
The drivers decode it into the 5 digital audio signals. This siimply regenerates what was put into the encoding and has no effect on its "volume."<
The 5 digital audio signals are sent to the SBX-Fi hardware, as is.<
The signals are widened (not sure about the SBX-Fi, but for SBLi've-/SBAudigy-series card it's 32-bits with IIRC 4 bits for headroom, which is 24dB) at input by the SBX-Fi hardware. The additional headroom is probably able to handle most effects/mixing which might happen, but might produce a signal which would clip on output if the intermediate results produce a digital volume over 00%.<
The master output volume operates on the output signals before they are narrowed.<
The output signals are narrowed (dithered) and distributed.<
If that's correct, it means you should be able to simply lower the master output volume in the soundcard mixer; and that presumes something's going on like high Crystalizer settings, or something; to elminate clipping distortion.

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.

MyDAQ passes Self-Test but will not work with any software

Hello,
I am currently having issues getting the myDAQ to interface with ELVISmx Instruments. My first attempt followed the included white paper step by step. When that did not work I moved on and tried installing (one at a time of course) several different versions of ELVISmx (14.0, 4.5, 4.3.2, 4.3.1, 4.2.1, and 4.1) and none of them have been able to interface correctly with the hardware. Additionally, I have tried installing the entire LabView suite provided by Georgia Institute of Technology, and several other NI applications associated with the myDAQ on the white paper.
The software installs have all completed successfully, the ELVSImx instrument launcher launches; however when I click on the DMM tool, or any other one, the application fails to load. A loading window pops up and the blue status bar scrolls but nothing ever happens. The application window never launches. I let it run over night thinking it might be confused or just really slow but nothing changed in the morning. The only way to exit out of the window is to end the task in the task manager.
In NI MAX, the hardware is recognized correctly and the "self test" feature returns that the myDAQ is functioning correctly. I have checked the Event Viewer for Windows applications and there do not appear to be any errors associated to any NI software.
I have exhausted all my resources in trying to get this to work but all of have done is frustrate myself and everyone I speak to about the issue.

Hi amoore73,
The myDAQ requires the NI DAQmx drivers as well as NI ELVISmx. Have you tried installing NI DAQmx?
It can be found on our website here: http://www.ni.com/nisearch/app/main/p/bot/no/ap/tech/lang/en/pg/1/sn/catnav:du,n8:3478.41.181.5495,s...

Xbox 360 Wired Controller is not working with Windows 7.

Not to long ago I was playing Halo 2 PC using my wired Xbox 360 Controller. All of a sudden my computer (which uses Windows 7) decides not to recognize it. Every time I plug in the controller in now it comes up as "Unknown Device". I have not changed anything,
I mean anything. Yes I have tried all methods of fixing the problem but they do not work. If someone knows a sure fine way to get the controller working again it would be much appreciated.

I 'm using a wired Gamestop Xbox 360 controller and I got mine to work using these steps. Good luck.
If you already have the software installed, go to programs and features and uninstall Microsoft XBOX 360 Accessories 1.2.
1) Download the drivers from
http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/download/download.aspx?category=gaming
2) Choose Gaming >
Xbox 360 Controller for Windows > Windows 7 64 bit > English.Don’t run the drivers.
Save them to a folder. (Or Xbox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows depending on your controller)
3) Right click the
Xbox360_64Eng file in the folder you downloaded to and click "create shortcut"
4) Right click the shortcut you created.
Select properties.
5) On the compatibility tab in properties, click "Run this program in compatibility mode"
ChooseWindows Server 2008 Service Pack 1 as the compatibility mode. Apply setting and click ok.
6) Right Click on the shortcut and select "Run as administrator"
7) With your controller plugged in go to
Device Manager. You should see Microsoft Common Controller for Windows Class. It located under Mice and other pointing if you do, you have arrived. If you don't, try this.
Continue only if you don’t see Microsoft Common Controller for Windows Class in Device Manager
8) Right click the unknown device that shows a problem.
9) Update Driver Software > Browse My computer for Driver Software > Let Me Pick from a List of Drivers
10) Choose Microsoft Common Controller for Windows Class > XBOX 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows
Ignore the warning.
Should work now.

E3000: uPnP not working with Xbox 360

Hello all,
So I just setup my new E3000, upgrading from a WRT54G. The uPnP worked great on that router and my last three routers before that. Xbox never required I setup anything -- I can prove this simply by swapping routers and putting one of the old ones in place of the E3000.
However, the E3000 (Firmware Version: 1.0.02) is not working with uPnP. Xbox connectivity test comes back and says that my NAT type is "Moderate". Most stuff works fine, but I'd like to get it all working. I worked with a Linksys tech who was very helpful and got NAT to "Open" by configuring triggered port forwarding.
I am happy to have my issue resolved, but confused why uPnP didn't work? I mean it was easy for me to configure port forwarding, but for my less technical friends, should I simply not recommend this router because it can't do basic uPnP?
Is there some other configuration change I made that may have upset the uPnP?
Thanks!
-Scott
Solved!
Go to Solution.

In case this helps anyone else:
For the past few months, I have been using static mapping for XBOX live. I recently updated the firmware on my router to 1.04 and still was having similar problems with uPnP. So I continued to use static mappings. One day my IP for the Xbox changed and I got frustrated.
I tried one thing before giving up on this router:
1) Held down the reset button for 30 seconds
2) While still holding it down, unplugged the router for 30 seconds
3) While still holding it down, plugged back in and continued holding for 30 seconds
This does a complete reset of the router. I then re-ran the Cisco connect software (which was also updated recently). I reconfigured my router the way I wanted.
Now, Xbox Live uPnP is working!

Norton 360 premier is not compatible and the identity safe does not work with firefox 4 it worked with earlier version. If there is a solution great otherwise I am going back to IE.

All my passwords are Norton identity safe protected. If firefox4 does not work with it I am forced to go back to IE. Previous versions had a patch. I only realized the problem after downloading the new update. I wish I never had.

Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
I do not know about the time scale for updates for other Norton products. Pending the update by Symantec, if you want to use the Norton add-ons you will need to downgrade to Firefox 3.6.
To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

Simple pass not working with Chrome

I've seen this posted numerous times (some posts going back to 2012) and I have yet to see an answer that works. I just bought a windows 7 machine with simple pass. Simple pass simply does not work with chrome. The only time it works is when I log on to windows itself. Everything is new and up to date, and simple pass is configured correctly.
This is one of the reasons why I bought this machine, and it just doesn't work. Can someone, anyone, tell me how to make it work?

It does work with IE Explorer but I have to use Chrome for work

Yea, in my honest opinion the wireless on the HH3 is not the greatest at all, the channel switching for me causes problems which causes my external devices to lose connection for a few seconds at times.
Is there no way you could just try it? even for long a game or so just to rule out any possibilites? Also, since your at the other end of your house, that is also a problem even when your powerline adaptors.

Sblive not working with Cool n'Quiet, how about Audigy

My SBli've will not work with Cool n'Quiet enabled. I tried moving it from slot to slot, I fumbled with the Bios (and every change made matters worse), memory is ok (at least according to memtest and prime95), kx drivers won't help either (but sound a lot nicer).
Well, what gives, the card is a little over seven years old and has earned a retirement.
I'm thinking about replacing it with an Audigy 4 (not pro) und would be very happy if someone could write about her or his experience with the card, esp. with Cool n'Quiet enabled.
Btw. what kind of card is it anyway? Does it use a 0k2-Chip?
thanks
My System:
AMD X2 3800
Asus A8V (Via KT800pro, AGP)
Nvidia 6600GT (AGP)

I cant promize anything, but it should work. X-FI and Audigy 2 work just fine with C&Q enabled. So Audigy 4 should work fine too.

Connecting an XBox 360 & Audigy for 5.1 with HDA-

Hi all,
I am attempting to hook up and Xbox 360 through my Audigy SB060 in order to obtain true 5. surround (running Windows Vista Ultimate).
I have obtained a Hitech HDA-X0 which gives me Optical inputs for the Audigy card and connects to the Audigy via a 20-pin extension header.
Basically I need the sound to go 360--->optical input of X0--->connected to Audigy by 20 pin header--->decoded by Audigy--->analogue outputs to my Logitech 5. speakers.
I have been assured by the people who sold me the X0 that this would work.
Unfortunately the manual is all in Korean!
As best I can make out it says that I ought to set the SPDIF settings in AudioHQ to AC-3 SPDIF-In.
This presents two problems:
. The current drivers for Audigy cards in Vista use Creative Audio Console not AudioHQ and
2. In Audio Console under SPDIF I/O, there are options only for Default and SPDIF Bypass.
When set to SPDIF Bypass there is no sound at all.
When set to default, I get sound from the 360 but only if the 360 is set to Digital Stereo output.
When I set the 360 to Digital 5., the sound sto
ps.
I think my problem lies in the lack of an AC-3 SPDIF-In setting in Audio Console.
Can anyone provide me with a solution?

Solved my own problem.
Took a look at the Audigy Vista driver release notes and saw that decoding has been disabled.
Once I dual booted into XP, the surround worked perfectly.
Guess I'll be trying out the nomoregoatsoup drivers so I can get it working in Vista too.
Come on Creative, get your act together.
