Xfi plati

I am going to get the platinum or maybe the xtreme music. what i would like to ask is would the headphone listening be better using the platinum jack or would it be just the same using the extreme music and using the heasphone jack on my logitech z680 control pod
I am just trying to see if it is worth paying the extra for the platimum

You won't get the CMSS option for headphones if you don't plug it into the X-Fi card or box. If this is important it might be worth it to buy the platinum for possible easier access to a headphone jack or if your flexijack already is occupied.
It won't be the same if you plug headphones into the speakers since the CMSS options for headphones are, technically, different. But if the CMSS is worth it, well, that is hard to answer without knowing your own preferences.

5.1 not working with xfi plati

hey there well i got the xfi platinum and my 5. isnt working?Its weird the rear speakers work fine but the front ones dont (center and woofer works)?got it working before but that took (hours) of restarting replugging things in configuring etc and it's kinda ridiculous because 2 5. systems same problems (cables have been swapped)?anyone else having this issue? i plug the rear speakers (black cable) to the port for the front and that works vice versa etc but still no 5. kinda sucks...
any kind of input?

Hi Killswitch,
Did you ever solve this problem? I'm having the exact same issue. Front Left and Front Right Speakers are not working.
It seems some problem with the card because I tried switching the cables and the speakers are working.
Hope you can help!
Thanks!

Xfi plat & home prem

i'm running a xfi platinum & vista home premium, I'm using the december 28th drivers & i've got my system set for 5. sound, yet when I go to do the test sounds, it comes back with an error saying it cant play the sound or whatever and I'm seeing people posting saying they've got 5. sound and all, so I'm wondering if anyone could assist me in setting this up. also, as another question, I've got alchemy and set up fear and gta san andreas up with it, yet when I use the game w/ alchemy 'enabled', the gunfire in fear and speach in san andreas is extremely quiet. if i disable hardware acceleration (with alchemy 'on') everything is back to normal volume.

/Re: Xfi Xtrememusic and Windows 7 x64 home premFKeep us updated.
I put together a new system with a GA-X58A-UD3R and REVODRIVE + Win7 64bit and have the same problem but results in the BSOD and requires loading SSD drivers to recover.
I'm not 00% sure it's the X-FI card but the problem stopped when I removed the card and drivers. Using the on-board souns works but can't compare to the X-fi quality?or ALchemy effects when gaming.
I've had the system running stable for over a week now and am tempted to try the X-fi card again but it's extremely painful to recover from the crash..
I took this X-fi Xtrememusic card from my other computer which also ran Win7-64 and had problems with that one too but finally got them installed and working by installing them inthe "SAFE" mode. Once it was in it worked great.

Installation of XFi Plati

I recently installed the XFI Platinum in my new PC, along with Logitech z5550 5. speakers.
When trying to use the system, I cannot configure the coorect setup with the XFI.
Using the 3 wire hookup, the XFI doesn't seem to recognize the 5.. It has the sound coming out of only three speakers with no subwoofer. No matter how I try to configure orcalibrate the speakers, it doesn't work properly. I had to remove the XFI and use the Realtek HD Audio driver through my motherboard.
Any ideas before I throw it out?

Sorry that didn't work, Stefan.
Perhaps HP has the wrong graphics driver pegged to the support page for your notebook.
I doubt I will be able to help you with this problem.
The only suggestion I can offer would be to try other Intel HD graphics drivers from other business notebooks such as the Elitebook 850 G1.

Xfi Platinum and headset: Constant issues.

Ever since I installed my XFI plat. I've had no luck whatsoever enabling my headset to work. Albeit, it's not the greatest, most expensive headset to walk the earth, but at least with my old sound card, there were no issues. The headset is a Logitech headset I received when I purchased Battlefield 2, the exact make i don't know without phyisically looking at it. It has two plugs, a black and an orange one. I've tried virtually every combination I can think of, but am willing to accept suggestions, and nothing works. It's either a) an issue of me plugging it in incorrectly or b) it's muted somewhere through some option.
Any ideas?
Thanks-
Norton

Headsets or microphones with a USB connection cannot be connected to the input connections on a sound card directly. Instead, they must be connected to a USB port on a PC.
They are treated as a separate audio device by Windows. They will be listed as a separate audio device in Device Manager as well as in Windows Multimedia panel. To adjust the volume of the headset or the microphone, use Windows Volume Control.

DDL or DTS = no sound out of rear speak

I have a sb xfi plat with optical out going to a dd/dts reciever and every time i play an mp3 i only get sound out of the front speakers and not my rears, is anyone else having this issue?

Thank you for the responce, however with every other DDL / DTS connect (nforce2 soundstorm,?blue gears, auzentech) you could enable DDL or DTS connect and any stereo source would automatically be 5. or 6. surround sound. See below.
MP3 source -> real ddl/dts connect sound car?-> dolby digital / dts stream -> external reciever with dolby digital dts light on +sound on all speakers
On the sound blaster the following happens
MP3 source ->?sb xfi plat -> dolby digital /dts stream with only 2 channels being used?-> external reciever with DD or DTS light on + sound from only front speakers.
Are you telling me this is how?creative designed this to work because?it isn't working like?every other DDL / DTS connect card out there.
I don't kow how and where exactly the defferences are between those solutions. But as I told it, it is the way the Creative implemention handles it. If you don't use CMSS-3D or use the surround functions of you Decoder (I have a seperate balance for "surround" on my Z-5500 where I can set If the rear speaker are used *at all*) you won't get automaticly Surround Sound with MP3. Of course it still depends a bit on you player software, there are player/filters (AC3 Filter; ffdshow) out there which can do that too. Upmixing Stuff, I mean but then you don't really need DDL. I use it to encode actual game sounds, because strangely I don't have any popping and noise in there while I use it (just read up that crackling/popping thread.

Works good in music, bad on ga

I have read alot of peoples issue's but I never heard someone have good sound on music, but bad sound on games. I have tried every mode. I have turned everything off (eax, crystaliz etc.) I have tried it with everything on also. My bios is by ami and the date is 2/03/05. My chipset is up to date. I have raid installed? but im only using hard dri've. My xfi-plat is rev-d. Does anyone have this same problem and does anyone have any suggestions. Its a shame when regular people in forums have better advice than tech support.

Xfi XtremeMusic only plays ambient sounds in ga

Hi, i've got a problem with my Xfi XtremeMusic when playing games. In many of my games inclusi've Call of Duty World At War and Assassins Creed, i only get the ambient sounds like wind, footsteps and so. Any speech or voices are not being played. It works on my onboard soundcard, but not on my soundblaster card.
Any ideas?

Ive actuall had some issues with FEAR on my Intel HD audio and a Realtek Audio. I haevnt yet had the issue with my X-Fi Plat. However I have done exstensi've googling and found alot of people having the same issue over multiple sound cards. I am not sure but I might venture to say its a FEAR issue and might need to be updated in a patch of some sort. I know it wasnt much help but besides the obvious (which im sure you have done) Latest drivers etc Obviously there are the other games that have the same issues. If in XP try ramping up the hardwar acceleration to full throuttle?.Message Edited by enOehT on 05-08-200703:06 PM

I am going to BUY an XFI Fatility in just a few minutes and

Just so everyone on this message board knows, I have been reading and reading
till the only way I can determine if this thing works is by getting one. I have
come to grips that if it were to cause me to slick my dri've Ill do it. All I have to
do is remove a Li've 5. Platinum and drivers. That should be know problem for the preinstallation of the XFI.
I want to let anyone on here interested know that there is an ongoing software conflict with Logitech product drivers, Asus update(has never worked properly in my opinion anyway) further more about Asus upate , YOU SHOULD ALWAYS FLASH YOUR MB BIOS WITH AFUDOS FROM A BOOTABLE DISK. COMMAND PROMPT "AFUDOS /i[name of .rom] /o[save .rom]. Also notice I did not put a space inbetween the i and the file name as well as o for the save. I just flashed my Asus P4C800E-Deluxe with a long running Beta Bios of 024.0. Since its been up for months that ususally means for Asus it hasnt gotten any complaints to any severe extent or they would have pulled it. I actually notice an improvment in my system in fact.
So I am going to Pay 300 bills for this card because It should be a great audio card and I love the 5.25 bays.
I already determined that the new Setpoint drivers for the new Logitech Laser Cordless Mice caused a conflict. Also I feel the middle mouse button is not a good solution for gamers with it moving from side to side. I use the middle mouse button to zoom frequently.
Anyway. I bought the MX58 and used the drivers with it. Any version of setpoint drivers above these caused me conflicts and problems which initially pointed to hardware. So my point is that some of the problems everyone is having may be driver related.
Asus update PERIOD is buggy and dangerous. So take my advice never flash with it or use it period.
Secondly any new Logitech driver for whatever product may be the culprit. I am not kidding. I have proven it on my system.
BUT, all of you are probably laughing saying I am going to get screwed. Well I have decided to take the risk. I assure you I will come back and let you know my findings.
So here is where my system stands prior to loading an XFI probably Fatality or the $200 dollar model.
.)Asus P4C800E-Deluxe flashed to the 024.0 Bios. (no problems)
2.)EVGA 6800 Ultra with the newest nvidia certified drivers. Tweaked only with reg keys.
3.)gig Corsair 3200 memory in 4 slots and running correctly in Dual Channel.
4.)Raid 0 with more than enough disk space.
Within the past 2 weeks I did a complete slick of my dri've. I didnt ghost it. I loaded a minimum of ap
ps.
My favorite games only. So my computer is flying as a matter fact.
A good game to test your machine with is "Painkiller". Although the bugs in the game are well know. Crash to the screen. Hang during game play. If the game plays for long periods before any of these things occur than you have a really good game system running if you can play at 280x024 everything maxed in Painkiller that is. Also I play all my games in 280x024.
Furthermore take note of this. I just bought "Sin Emergence" ,loaded it and played it after Steam updated it. I had sound glitching problems in the game which I attribute to my outdated Li've 5.. It happens almost in all games. BUT I went to play F.E.A.R. Today and I got the infamous staticky movie intro visually as will as sound. I could go into video options once in the game and just make sure my res was set to my liking and get out and then it functioned I think properly.
Well I saved my save games and profile and uninstalled Fear. I reloaded it up to patch .4 and what do you know it works perfectly now.
So did Loading "Sin Emergence" cause this? Honestly its the only change I made since playing Fear so I would have to conclude that something did occur software wise to give me this problem.
I will tell you people I will troubleshoot the hell out of the XFI because I do believe that the moderators and such on the forum hear really dont know what is going on. The one thing alarming I did read was that
Creative Labs is prioritizing their work for Vista. That means compatibility in XP is not a high priority for them right now. Therefor it is up to us to get the thing to work.
So Ill be back

Its been 4 days now since I installed the XFI Platinum. I am still notating many things to make sure I get the best performance out of it.
For me fortunately the XFI is working. It did what I hoped it would do and that is take away the glitching and crackling and popping I was getting using an SB Li've 5. Platinum.
For anyone interested, and just to let you know I am a computer services business owner and technician for 9 years and have been working with creative products since the very first Sound Blaster 6 was around. Thats Dos and windows days for those who want the simple.
To the previous poster you are absolutely correct about the processes loading. As a technician you must never think you know everything so using Google is an everyday thing for me. I have already done it in regards to finding out what certain files are that are running at startup and even an outdated service that I dont need running. Since I did what you suggested yesterday before even reading this I will let other people learn from your suggestion and mine for that matter.
But you are wrong in implying that it is okay to flash a bios while in the operating system. I have been using Asus boards for years.
I have a P2B, CUSL, CUSL2, The VIQ P3 board I cant remember the model. Slot though and now I have the P4C800E-Deluxe
I would say I have quite a bit of experience using ASUS motherboards wouldnt you? Actually I have 4 running right now. The VIA board is the only one not in use but still works.
My first experiences with ASUS update were not good as a matter of fact. When I discovered it was attempting to flash my bios while working in the OS I cancelled QUICKLY.
Any technician that is experienced like myself will STRONGLY reccomend a MB Bios be flashed from a clean boot from either a CDrom or Floppy. Yes I know Floppy dri'ves are archaic now but everyone of my computers has one and even the new PCI-E boards I am pretty sure have the option of having a 3.5 floppy dri've. If I had the money to upgrade to an SLI Asus board and I had 2 7900s I would . I assure you. but my system works great.
I believe I already stated its specs.
Anyway my experience with the XFI after 4 days is like this.
I found it necessary to reinstall the game F.E.A.R and when I did the game showed the Creative HD logo which I did not see before the reinstall. Obviously I saved my profile and games. Any gamer knows to do this. So after reinstall I enabled all 3 features in the game , put my saved games back and its great. I mean great. The 3d in my headphones is worth the money alone. I am hearing sounds and music that I never heard before.
So here is my point. I would conclude that in some cases in MAY be necessary to reinstall a game to get the card to funcetion properly. With that being said it MAY be necessary to reinstall your OS as well. For me since I was using the driver that comes with XP and the update from creative I was fortunatelly so far behind I believe that is why I havnt had to reinstall my OS. This is my opinion purely and reinstalling an OS to get the XFI to work properly Is obviously a posibility for many people.
Many computer users do not know about disabling processes at startup. Disabling services.
Most people expect the hardware to work right no matter what condition their computer is in.
So my final thought on the 4th day is that if you can try it and you dont care, try reinstalling XP if thats your OS. I mean clean install. Save everything you need to save.
BUT DO NOT DO THIS WITH THE XFI IN THE SYSTEM. After the OS is loaded and you have connectivity to the net , drivers for your video card , then open your box up and put the card in and try installing it the way it says.
That seriously might get the card to work for many poeple. Almost all games have saved game folders that you can save. Most every serious PC user that would buy this card would also have their games on another partition or dri've itself.
So here are the test games I have used so far.
Doom 3
Painkiller
FEAR
I have many more games to test it with like Half Life 2, NFSMW, etc.
So Ill come back and tell you what I found.
Oh I have removed all unnessary processes I have been able to determine from Creative now and the XFI is running great. The Volume Panel doesnt seem to bog my system down. I mean I am playing FEAR at 280x024 with very good frame rates. I have EVGA 6800 Ultra OCed to 433Mhz Core Clock. I also OCed my P4 3.2 to 3.36
I hope every one gets theirs to work but I have to suggest that the XFI may not be so messed up as is beeing suggested by many. I almost didnt buy it because I read so many potential problems. I was most conserned about Service Pack 2. Incidentely I am still running Service Pack and the XFIs apps all loaded and are functioning properly. No errors.

XFi Can't Handle more than one sound at a time?!?

I bought an XFi Elite Pro and it was working great. Now, however, it will only handle one sound at a time. For example, if I'm playing a song in iTunes and windows makes a sound, the itunes song cuts out, the windows sound plays, then itunes abruptly cuts back in. Same thing in games. If I'm playing Warcraft the sound will cut out if Windows makes some kind of a sound.
How do I get my card back to being able to play multiple sounds/music simultaneously? I'm running Vista Ultimate on a Quad Core system with 4 gigs of RAM.

Sound like something messed up somehow. Maybe you can consider reinstalling the drivers again? @28.86.2.0

Neo 2 Plat Bios 1.3... adjusting HTT freezes bios

I just built my system last night with the components below. Had problems with installing windows at first due to random lock-ups during the install process. Moved the raptor to sata 2 from 1 (learned today from reading that i'm gonna want to put in in 3 or 4) and adjusted the jumper on my combo drive to cable select from master. Was able to install and bench test the system with no issues after that.
Then i went to start overclocking and upon attempting to bring up the HTT multiplier menu i found that the sub menu comes up blank (blue window with nothing in it) and locks up the bios. Can't go back or do anything, just have to power cycle. I've never seen a bios freeze before and i hope this isn't a sign of things to come. The board came with bios 1.3. Any suggestions? multiple cmos resets have not fixed the problem. I'm at work and the system has been running prime 95 all damn day so at least things are running well, but i refuse to run a system stock Thanks for your suggestions.

Welcome to the forum DaaDoctor
If you creat a signature (in profile) it will save you having to type your spec's out each time or us looking for it. Use mine as a template.
What PSU are you using ? Can you list the power output ? (writen on side of psu)
Going from your specs you listed your graphics card is very hungery on power so I would suggest your psu isn't up to the job under load.
Post the spec and we will know for sure.

How to Position Identity Plate Overlay in Print Module?

When I print portraits, I want to include my name and date overlaying the portrait in the lower right hand corner. Currently I have to open the file in Photoshop and add this to the portrait. I saved the text information (name and date) in a transparent tiff and imported the into LR's print module identity plate. The problem is that the graphic is displayed in the middle of the portrait. Is there some way that the identity plate overlay can be positioned exactly where I want it (the lower right hand corner)?
I recently did a portrait sitting for a large family reunion that involves seven different family portraits being printed in 4 different sizes. If I could position the identity plate exactly where I want, this would save me a lot of time instead of having to add this in PS.

Hopefully this will be improved drastically in the final release of version 2. In an earlier thread, I asked about printing that used to work in Lr 1.2 and stopped working in Lr 1.3. An Adobe engineer replied it was a known bug. I am also a pro photographer and love Lightroom. jc

Crackling, Left Rear Channel noise, IRQs, 4 Gigs of Memory, fixes and problems with XFi Fatal

Hello fellow troubleshooters. Well I've been working on my XFI issues since there are so many of them trying to make the one piece in my newly built system work as intended. I will put my hardware info below this post for comparison purposes if it helps you at all or for feedback/ideas. Well first off I had the crackling noise popping so on even when my machine was idle. If you have not done this yet do it
!!! Start, Control Panel, Sounds Speech and Audio Device, Change Speaker Settings, Advanced (in device volume), ok now there is a bunch of sliders go to "options" check everything, ok now that you see all the sliders mute Everything besides: Play Control, Wave, CD Player for testing purpose. You will probably hear a difference as you do it. Especially Mic 2. Ok well that issue resolved my popping crackling noises when idle. Ok so I still have a shared IRQ issue since I have an Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe board and the slots go as such PCI-E, PCI, PCI, PCI-E, PCI. Well since the GeForce 7800 GTX cards I have take up not just the PCI-E slot, but also the PCI slot is covered from the Huge Fan. Then the Same thing for the Second graphics card. So I have only one slot that works for my PCI Fatalty sound card. Well this forces me to share PCI IRQ between one of the Video Cards and the Sound Card. Its not a "conflict" it is simply sharing the IRQ, after the above issue fixed my popping issue this no longer was a concern. Now my big issue is that I sent my Sub Woofer in for RMA, I have the Gigaworks S750 7. THX speakers, they are great but when I really crank up the volume on them I would get the sound like a speaker was blown in the left rear channel, so I swapped another speaker in its place and I have the same problem. So the RMA folks said to send in the Sub Woofer which cost me over $30 to ship the thing only to have them tell me there is no problem. Well I had recently done RMAs on my sound card, both Video Cards, and my mother board too in hopes of fixing the next problem. So everything is new though I got a refurb on the mobo. So I'm just waiting on my Sub woofer now so I'm using my headphones and guess what I'm finding there is this noise in the left speaker, an issue I sent the headphones back for a long time ago when I was using them waiting to buy my speakers. I have the Creative Pro Gamer headphones. So now I read a post about someone else with the same issue left channel, and I have to wonder I am not alone and that usually means in Creative Labs land there probably is others with this issue that have spouses that wont let them stretch their audiophile legs with extreme volume, if this is you try it out kick up the bass, and see if you have this problem too, if so please post it here. I have no clue on this one and I am open to any ideas. Ok and the last issue!! This is the real problem I'm facing now. I play EQ2 I love my MMO titles with the occassional single player title for those short stints at the computer between work, parenting, and stuff my wife demands be started before she finishes speaking of it (those of you married know what I'm talking about). I have 2 operating systems, XP Home, and XP Pro 64. Home I use for Office, graphic design, and general applications. XP Pro 64 I use purely for gaming. All my games are installed through this OS which is on my 2 74 Gig Raptors in Raid 0, I have another Partition for XP Home, and a 3rd for all the game installs. So I recently found that after selecting Extreme Graphics option in EQ2 then moving the rest of the sliders to Max that my G5 keyboard which has a performance monitor in it showing the amount of Ram usage showed me hitting about 90% and would spilke at the same time as I found I had frame rate slowdown. So I decided to get 2 more gigs of Corsair Twin XMS 3500Pro 024x2 memory bumping me up to 4 gigs. Well I had to go into the bios I found and change a memory setting to discrete and enable the memory hole in order for XP Pro 64 and the motherboard to see the memory. At this time I was working on other things with my computer, and suddenly the popping noise came back so I'm pissed now.... But oddly its not happening in XP home, only in XP 64. So I'm thinking I may have to go to XP home for my gaming OS, then just before I install home I remember that XP home wont register 4 gigs of memory.... So I go turn off the memory hole and discrete settings and this sets the memory to 2 gigs.... Crackling sound in ALL EAX GAMES goes away.... So now clearly my issue with my sound card and EAX crackling noise is Memory related somehow. Now I have isolated it to 4 gigs of memory, but it makes me think of those folks with this issue perhaps something is amiss with their memory and how it works with timing, or onboard memory on the sound card which is a first time memory is put on a sound card?.... Any input is appreciated as to how to repair this issue, thanks for reading, below is my system set up.

Evolve,
I have the a8n-sli Premium which as you stated is basically the same board with a couple extra items. I have the latest beta bios ver -06. Since the early fall release the option which we will be talking about was available in the premium board which it I remember was Bios rev 9. I would download the latest bios rev.
07.04 (latest beta?or go with 06)?and flash in. Here are the steps to get the proper memory options to work and I have also included my system specs to compare.
) Hit Del to get into Bios
2) Go to the second tab on the top of the screen "Advanced"
3) Select the first option in the menu "CPU Configuration"
4) Select the first option in the "CPU Configuration" menu called "DRAM Configuration"
5) Select Manual configuration from the first Menu item.
6) The last two options in the same menu for DRAM are s/w remapping over 4G and h/w remapping over 4G. Select the "s/w remapping option over 4G" and enable it. Disable the "h/w remapping over 4G."?
7) Hit f0 and save the config.
You should now at post have 4GBws total but only 3GBs of usable memory and your X-fi should crush it in XP64 and XP32.
My Specs
A8n-sli premium (Bios -06)
amd X2 4400 (~2.5 GHZ)
4GB LL patriot memory (~228 HZ)
X-Fi Extreme Music
LSI 320-2e PCI express SCSI RAID controller (256MB buffer)
2x Seagate Cheata 5K.3?dri'ves
All water cooled
Good Luck

By the way this is defiantly a XP64 driver problem because even with h/w remapping enabled in XP32 the card sounds fine. It only happens in XP64.

Lightroom crashes every time I try to change the font color of my identity plate

I use the LRB portfolio plugin to create my website. Every time I try to change the color of my identity plate, lightroom crashes immediately. I can change the font and size without the problem, only a color change causes the crash. I tried to trash the plugin, but it still behaved the same way. Can anyone help me with this problem?

Hi Sean,
thanks for answering. No, it crashes anyway. I tried changing the identity plate color in all different modules. I was able to change it once when I had just bought a new computer and installed Lightroom, but now I can't. I wonder if there are any cache files or anything causing this. Unfortunately I don't know enough about this to fix it myself. I wondered whether LRB is causing a problem simply by having it installed, but as I said, after I removed it from the Web Galleries folder, the problem still occurred. Is there any way to recreate the identity plate in Photoshop (same font and size etc.) and reimport it into Lightroom? I need to finish my website and my name is sol light, it is barely legible. Any fix or workaround would be appreciated.
