Xtrememusic and Home Cinema

Hey All,
I have recently purchased a home cinema from LG and I connected it from the optical digital in that it has to the flexijac in my card, using a optical/3.5 jack cable. Still I got no sound whatsoever! I tried to check the Enable I/O in the sound propreties, Digital I/O in the flexijac connections options in the mixer.
How can I make it work? Thank you!!!

In all the the first 2008 MBair, it's done with a Mindisplay port to HDMI adapter and a HDMI cable.  that assumes you have a spare HDMI port on the TV.
Here's the adapter.

  • Ipod Classic 120gb to Samsung LCD TV and Home cinema

    Any help or suggestions would help.
    I have just bought a New Ipod Classic 120gb and connected it to my Samsung LCD TV and Home cinema systems. The Ipod connects fine but the order of the music on the tv is all mixed up. Is there anyway to sort out the order so it displays in album or even artist order?

    Yes, I bought the dock so I could hook it up to my tv. Then I had to buy the cable, I didn't get the cable from Apple. at the time the cable was $50, I went to ebay & found the same cable for about $20. Just like you, I could not find an answer about why the dumb thing wouldn't work, so I just had do my own experiments. Good luck getting Apple to do anything. They don't seem to want to give anything away or replace merchandise.
    Take care!!

  • 2010 mac mini Home cinema sound and Home cinema headphones

    Hello
    im waiting for my 2010 mac mini to arrive,
    ive experience with home cinema setups in the past.
    Im looking to use my mac mini as a home cinema set up.
    Im fine with the visual side ( projectors and hdtv).
    The audio.
    How on earth do i get home cinema sound into headphones.
    due to where i live, headphones are the only option i have ( neighbours dont like noise.)
    ive tried :-
    sony mdr-drs7100
    Pioneer SE-DRS3000c
    pioneer dir-8000c.
    the three above are ok as they have home cinema audio processing built in and worked with the optical digital output fine.
    bass on the above 3 is weak.
    i aso will prefer a wired set of headphones ( had enough of wireless)
    im now looking at another route.
    1) a decent headphone amplifier capable of playing DTS and Dolby digital 5.1
    2) decent set of headphones to handle the above.
    anyone any setups they can share that work
    many thanks

    Hey David,
    My issue was resolved by ensuring that I was using a PAL resolution and frequency (720p @ 50 Hz or 1080p @ 50 Hz) for my PAL TV. Anything else causes audio stuttering through my HDMI cable.
    Don't ask me why. Try this on your setup by using only the one of your TV's native resolutions and frequencies (Should say NTSC Television on every native TV resolution if you are in the US, PAL Television in Europe). If you do have an NTSC TV, then you might be able to use all of the 60 Hz frequency resolutions without HDMI audio out problems, but I wouldn't count on it.
    From what I've researched on the issue, it is only TV's that have this problem, and it is a strange one, as it is actually a  display setting problem with an audio error symptom.

  • APTV2 and Sony DAV-DZ630 Home Cinema

    Hi,
    I have just received my new APTV2 and want to connect it up to make use of my home cinema.
    I have used a HDMI lead to connect APTV2 to my TV, (Sony KDL-37V4000), but no audio/sound is returned through the TV, picture display is fine.
    There is an optical output on APTV2, but there is no optical input on my home cinema (Sony DAV-DZ630), there is just a DMPORT and a red and white AV in connectors.
    I've tried searching on line for a cable which converts from optical to DMPORT but can't see any available, can some one let me know how to get this set-up?
    Thanks!
    SMT.

    I connect the tv to the home home cinema via a HDMI lead. The tv has Bravia Sync, but I don.y think it is set up correctly......
    I don't have very much knowledge of AV gear, which doesn't help in these situation.....
    Thanks!

  • Macbook and samsung home cinema

    hi
    I'm trying to connect a macbook to a Samsung HT-X620 via bluetooth but unsuccessfully...any ideas? I'm guessing that its due to the Samsung manual reading :
    "The Home Cinema System only supports Middle Quality SBC data(up to 237kbps@48kHz), and does not support High Quality SBC data([email protected])."
    Not too sure which one the macbook is either...
    Thanks

  • ATV3 - I need to enable dolby digital for optical surround sound (netflix and home movies), but when I do this it stops audio coming through TV speakers

    I have a cinema sound receiver connected to Apple TV via optical cable.  When I have dolby digital set to Auto it doesn't come through as dolby digital when watching movies on netflix and iTunes (home movies).
    If I set Dolby Digital to ON it works as expected, but the sound stops working through normal TV speakers (via HDMI).  This is the same for netflix and home movies.
    I tried 16 bit setting, but it made no difference.
    Any advice on how I can get this working - meaning Dolby Digital always on for when I turn my surround sound on and sound through speakers for normal operation?
    Obviously I can change the setting when needed, its just a pain.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello everyone, 
    here is the friendly and signed driver installation method to enable Dolby Digital Plus in your Encore internal speakers only. This is not an official driver, there is no control panel for Dolby Digital Plus or various sound effects, but tested and has much better and richer surround sound quality as before with factory driver. I guess, this driver tweak can work with any Bay Trail tablet also.
    How can you upgrade Encore sound drivers:
    1. Download signed driver package and extract.
    2. Open Device Manager.
    3. Upgrade your Sound, Video and game controllers
    - Intel SST Audio Device
    - Realtek I2S Audio Codec
    one by one with "Have a disk" method.
    4. Double click enabledolby.reg file and add to your registry.
    5. Restart, and enjoy better sound quality.
    Thanks.

    Nick,
    You will need a Windows PC with iTunes running and a working copy of Windows Media Player available on the machine.  (iTunes calls WMP for the conversion from WMA).  Then just drag the WMA file(s) into the iTunes Music window.
    iTunes will detect it and give you the dialog shown below, to which you choose "Convert."  iTunes will create a new version in the format/bitrate set in your Import preferences (MP3 in my example below), and immediately add it to your iTunes library.
    The WMA original will be left in place, so you can delete it if you have no other need for it.

  • MacMini as centre of Home Cinema System

    I am looking to use a MacMini as the centre of my Home Cinema system.
    The intention is to connect the MacMini to my existing Sony Projector (VLP CX85). I know this is not the best projector for this kind of things, but it is one I have had for some time and I am happy with the image quality for now. I recognise I will need to use a Mini to RGB adapter to do this - I already do that using a Macbook Air. I assume then that I will be able to store all my films on the MacMini HD and use FrontRow to access them and my iTunes library as well as viewing photos/video created with Aperture or iPhoto. Yes?
    Woud this be preferable to buying the MacMini Server and using that to do the same thing? Or even the MacTV?
    Any pointers to Home Cinema systems which are Mac based would be gratefully received or any other information related to this kind of issue would be helpful.
    I already run an iTunes system with three Airport Express points and speakers throughout my house.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Yes. You may run into issues with movies purchased from the iTunes Store and HDCP, though, if you use a VGA connection to the projector.
    Woud this be preferable to buying the MacMini Server and using that to do the same thing?
    A Mac mini server would do the same thing, but the only advantage would be having the dual 500-GB drives. I'd suggest the standard mini and an external drive if you need more storage space.
    Or even the MacTV?
    Presuming you mean the Apple TV, other than price I'm not sure the Apple TV offers a lot of advantage over a Mac mini other than the ability to stream content from iTunes on another computer. Note as well that the Apple TV does not have a VGA output; HDMI and component video only.
    Hope this helps.

  • IPod Hifi as Home Cinema Speakers!! Opinion anyone ?

    Ok theres no surround sound option but I wanted to do a quick test with a new LCD projector I bought. I hooked it up to a DVD and then the sound went straight from the DVD player to the input socket on the back of the iPod HIFI and to be honest I was listening to it and thinking **** this is really good sound!! now I'm the first to admit that I am obviously not a complete freak when it comes to sound and as long as it sounds okay to me then thats all that matters. I just wanted to hear other peoples views on using the iPod Hifi as a home cinema solution (minus the surround sound part!!!)

    Starfrog, I think you've answered your own question already. You tried it, liked it, and profess not to be a sound freak, so stick with it. you could have hundreds of purists tell you it's no good, but at the end of the day, it works for you and that's all that matters.
    The sound is great, I love mine and am glad to finally be rid of the tiny, tinny little stopgaps that preceded this unit - but I wont be replacing my home theater speaker setup with the HiFi.

  • Connecting 30GB to Home cinema system

    Hi
    I have just bought a Samsung TV and Samsung Home cinema system. On the front of the DVD player, there is a USB port. I have tried connecting my ipod to this, but it doesn't seems to work. Does anyone have any idea how I can connect my ipod so that it plays through the home cinema system.

    Hi
    I've successfully managed to do this with my LG Cinema System (Model : LHT760IA - Link via the USB port. However, you can only play none-protected AAC or MP3 encoded files so anything you purchased from iTunes store will not play. I will also admit that the iPod will intermittently disconnect from the DVD player and you have to un-plug and re-plug to re-activate it making continued use a problem so overall not a very good way of using you’re iPod with your system. Consequently I recommend using the iPod Doc and the AV cables plugged in to the AUX Input socket on your DVD/Cinema system for uninterrupted playback as I now do having given up on the USB port. Clearly LG didn’t envisage the use of the USB port for much more than card readers or digital cameras for picture viewing. Incidentally this problem (the random disconnect) also occurs on my XBOX360 if I connect the iPod via the USB socket on that, so may be actually turn out to slightly related to the iPod itself?

  • I can t get my home cinema play the sound of my iTunes (via the apple TV)

    i can t get my  Amplifier (home cinema) play the sound and i am unable to know wether this is due to 1. the plug 2. the menu or 3...me ?!! can anyone help to get the sound working please !many thanks.
    Greg

    spot on !
    The Apple TV is connected to the TV via HDMI and to the amplifier via the optical cable.
    The VoD works just fine, the transmission of content (sound/images) to the TV as well.
    The only function I can't get working properly is playing the sound on the amplifier...
    The optical cable is plugged into the following port : VCR digital in and when I select the very same menu among the different sources, i ve got no sound going out of the speakers...
    I don'g get it ;o)
    thx

  • Creative Labs Home Cinema Cable to receiver. Distance 5m but cable only 2m. Any solutio

    The CL Home Cinema cable (the one that has 3x 3.5mm stereo jacks to 8 rca male) is just 2m long but i need to reach my receiver which is just over 5m away. There is no chance of moving either piece of equipment and I need to make the analogue 7. connection, so no digital connection.
    Is there a cheap cable that extends the home cinema cable or is there some other sort of cable that can be used instead of the CL cable (something like a camcorder cable x 3 which has one 3.5mm jack to three rca, although one of the rca's is intended for video?)
    Is there a longer length of cable that I could use that I am missing? Are there any alternati'ves?
    Please, any suggestions as I'm pulling my hair out with this dilema and am approaching baldness!.

    ben365,
    If you already has the Home Cinema cable and the cable length is too short for you, you can simply purchase a female to male RCA extension cable of your desired length from your local audio/electronic store and you need to purchase 8 of such cable. An example of the cable.
    http://www.amazon.com/RCA-Male-Femal...e/dp/B000IEYK8
    If you can find those 3.5mm minijack to 3 RCA cable around your area with those cable length you desired, you can use those too to replace the Home Cinema cable(if you had not purchase it). You will need to get 2 of such cable and a 3.5mm stereo to stereo minijack cable.
    Btw, what's the soundcard you're currently using?

    Well, if the symptom occurs only when connected to your SAMSUNG HT-TXQ120, I would say you've isolated the problem and should start there. If available, I would try using component cables to see if the problem persists; do you have an optical cable? Why don't you try using the optical out of the ATV to the optical in of your Samsung and see if you still get the dropouts in the audio. Trying the different connection methods will further help in isolating the problem. It might be a defective HDMI connection. Have you tried different HDMI cables to make sure that's not the problem? Also, how is your ATV connected to your network? Are you streaming content or is it synced on the ATV?

  • XFI 5.1 USB Card - Trying to get Digital Output to my Home Cinema - No Decoder

    Hey all, well i have been searching and reading up all night and there seems to be a few people with my problems but I cant find a definate answer for people on XP
    I have just brought a Soundblaster X-fi 5. from PC world, I am using Windows XP
    In the hope that i could plug it in, hook it up to my Home cinema setup and send the 5. signal from my pc to my Dolby Digital receiver
    However I have no Decoder tab in my Audio Console, the output option is greyed out in the SPDIF tab,
    Can someone clear up if I can enable this etc and point me in the direction of a solution or if this feature of the card is now not available? it seems silly to have an optical out port if i cant send the signal down it!
    I have installed the latest drivers from the Creative Site?
    thanks in advance
    JonnyWiz?

    Another suggestion:It is better if you have a 64 bit hardware supported by 64 bit Win XP or Vista. In my computer the hardware is of 2003 and is of 32 bit.However I can get results only with XP service pack 2 (32 bit)or Vista 32 bit.Normal XP may not work.However I can only get 48 Khz sampling rate and not the advertised 96 Khz sampling rate. Is it due due 32 bit hardware/software?The manufacturer recommends a 64 bit version for best results.
