Zen 4Gb output too low in vol

Hello forum, Just purchased a ZEN 4Gb but I must set the soundlevel to max 25 to get a reasenable volume. It's far too low to hear anything in an airplane. Helpdesk told me to download a version with no e extension behind the file. Did that but still shows e after the software version.Can anybody help to boost the volume to a higher level. Tried same music on several other players and that is OK. Restrict volume is off, smart volume is off.

I bought my ZEN in Finland, and it wasn't even pre-installed with a firmware marked with "e"! Upon next firmware update I did change to European firmware alternati've. I don't have a problem at all with the volume, with the volume churning out loudly through my Koss PortaPro, even though they are of old design and have a relati'vely high impedance (60 ohm). But of course, if you are using some enormous audiophile headphones which have 300 ohm impedance, the player might not be able to pump out music at a very high volume regardless of firmware.

Audio level output too low, even if set to maximum

OS: Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3-Build Lab: 2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.080814-1236
Audio driver: SoundMAX Integrated Digital HD Audio - Analog Devices - Driver date: 08/02/2008, Driver version: 5.10.1.5520
The audio level output is too low, even if setting the output for all sources to the maximum level.
Does somebody have the same problem?
Need your help to see how to correct this and return to a normal operation!
Thank you very much in advance for your help and answers.

Additional informations:
Tested with the audio driver found at Lenovo's website, without any success.
After this was done, the audio driver was updated also without success too.

Glxgears output too low (about 60 fps)

Hello
I have a strange problem when I try to use glxgears to see how much fps I have... Because I only have around 60 fps, with the free ati drivers and a radeon mobility x600 with 64 MB of vram.
Here is the glxgears output:
300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.839 FPS
300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.816 FPS
300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.816 FPS
300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.816 FPS
300 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.816 FPS

I commented all the extra options of my xorg.conf, resulting a file that was the same as yours, at least on the device section part, and I still have the same problem, even I edited my whole xorg.conf, and nothing... But I suppose that we have a xorg.conf very similar. This is my actual xorg:

Creative ZEN 4GB is not connecting with

Hello Everybody!
I've bought CREATIVE ZEN 4GB mp3 player, and after some two months, i can not connect the player with pc. So i reinstalled my windows, because i thought it was some problems with whem. After installation, everything worked twice, and then, is the same problem happened. So i reinstalled windows a second time, but doesn't matter, how many times i reinstall them, it's same problem. After that, i've tried to contact costumer support, but all they tried to help me, was unsuccessful. So few weeks ago, i deleted the MTP Device from "device manager" And now, all the time i have a bubble on the left lower side at the screen, with a note: "Found New Hardware: MTP Device" And i can't turn it of, every time i do that, it shows again. At device manager, on MTP device i have yellow exclamation mark. When i'am trying to update driver, i have this error: There was a problem installing this hardware: MTP Device.
This Device Cannot Start (Code0)
The only thing i can do, charge my mp3 player. And sometimes i using the player on the really old computer, and its works properly, but the worst thing, that the old computer is not mine anymore, so i can't do anything with a mp3 player.
So if someone, has problem like this, and someone, who resolved it, please help me. I like this player very much, and i dont want to change it.
Thank You!

Yes, it is possible. On the right hand side of the player is the slider to turn on the player, push the slider upwards to the lock position and the screen will turn off. That is the Hold mode. At this mode, all the buttons would be inaccessible to prevent accidental pressing of the buttons. This is the mode to use when you are just playing music and do not need the display.
To unhold the player, just push the slider to the middle position and all the way down to turn it off.

Suggestion for renaming new Zen 4GB/8GB/1

Just bought myself a new "Zen 4GB". I think Creative should rename it to "Zen Paperclip". Seem i
need to reboot it several times (7 times in 2 days). Talk about product quality issues. What
a waste of $30.
No mention on the box either that it doesn't support UMS - how many media players out there don't
act as a mass storage devices these days. Even my old 3rd gen ipod can be mounted on my Linux box
as a disk and i can copy files onto it and play. Maybe even "Zen Microsoft" as a name ?
My wife's calling it the "Zen paperweight" - it's too light for even that job...
Off to the Apple store.. The new iTouch looks nice. Well it doesn't have a SD slot, but that doesn't
work too well according to this list, and no radio, but i can browse the web, and have a lot more apps
soon, maybe even internet radio.
Bad Creative, bad..

I was not comparing a 4GB model with a 8GB iTouch which is their base model iTouch. So there's only $00 in it if you compared 8gb with 8gb. Plus you are looking at much better features and stability on the apple (or so my friend tells me). Half the so called features on the Zen don't work very well, and i'm not the only one. Look at this very forum.
>Who told you that you can't use the ZEN as an USB Storage Device? Mine works fine this way.
I told you. I have one, and it doesn't support UMS. You cannot plug it into a Mac or Linux and see the device. You are limited to MTP support only ! If you give your player to someone else who doesn't have the MTP driver installed in windows it will NOT work as a plain storage device. Try it before you respond.
And no i don't disconnect it while it's docked when it decides to crash/hang. Even if i did i'd consider it a bug in the firmware nevertheless.Message Edited by terraforma on 0-4-20072:46 PM

Volume is too low

I have Altec Lansing ADA745 plugged into my mac. The volume output is too low with all controls set to maximum. Any assistance or suggestions would be appreciated.

This low sound issue appears to be either driver related, or there is a low powered amp that drives the speakers in some of these laptops. When I use a headset the sound is extremely loud, so much so that I have to turn the volume level down. Uninstall the Realtek HD driver and let Windows install its own default driver and the sound level is much higher. People should forgo the Toshiba Realtek driver version and try using the very latest drivers from Realtek. For most it appears that when we enable "Loudness Equalization" through the Realtek HD Audio Manager the volume is significantly louder. It also helps somewhat to set the "equalization" to Powerful too. Realtek nor Toshiba have voiced a better solution to this issue. As such this is the best "fix" we have at the moment when using the internal laptop speakers.
My system sounds (DVD/Audio CD audio is a different story) on an L505 series laptop are much louder now that the "Loudness Equalization" is enabled along with the EQ set to "Powerful". One thing people should also check is that both the master volume level is set to 100% along with the audio slider or setting in program that is playing the audio on the laptop.

Ipod volume too low

The maximum volume on my ipod is too low. When I am driving, I cannot hear it. When I use the car jack, I cannot hear it. How do I turn up the voume
on the ipod so it can work? I don't have the same problem with my iphone, it works fine.

And why is the crappy supermarket mp3 player louder then my Ipod Classic then???
I don't know, you tell us!
I also use an extra AKG headphone with a low impedance which fits the Ipods output, otherwise it would even be more silent.
I have an old pair of AKG K340 headphones and I use a Cmoy "altoids" amp to drive them from the iPod.
I compared also with my old 5.5 Video Ipod and with the volume cap enabled (i can also uncap it of course :-)) it is 5dB louder then the classic.
I believe it is a known fact that the 5th gen iPod can be hacked, the Classic cannot.
I am also working for a very big service department for Nokia Siemens Networks and within i learned that the customer is the king, but this doesn't seem to apply for Apple.
As has already been said, it is an EU law - and all mp3 players sold within the EU must comply with EU legislation. If you know of a brand that doesn't, perhaps it's not actually approved for sale within the EU. Apple are not going to ignore an EU law, whatever you think or say! Do you think the EU would simply roll over and let Apple ignore this law?
I am not the only complaining customer i suppose, and normally when a company is loosing (normally satisfied) customers it should think about customer oriented solutions.
As above!
When i buy an Apple product i automatically assume a very good product, but i am really, really annoyed this time. Other producers within the EU don't play by the book and no one takes care about it, or how can the supermarket mp3 play much louder than the classic (i measured the same!! output impedance).
I believe other manufacturers do play by the book. Is "supermarket mp3 player" a euphemism for something that should not be sold within the EU?
You know - since you feel this strongly about it, you should take the matter up with your MEP (Member of the European Parliament), since what you say here will not change a thing.

Too low, can barely hear!

When using the speakers from my last PC, a compaq 5670 with onboard sound,
on my new 865PE-based PC, the sound is way too low. With the volume set to max the output from the C-media thingy is just a step above whispering.
The speakers work perfectly with the old PC.
When I use a Computer Subwoofer system, Hi-TEX CP-SW2, the sound is great.
Do one have to use a subwoofer system or something similar with this mobo
to get a descent sound???
I would like to be able to use the speakers from the compaq!
Have I missed some setting/configuration/jumper ???

Hey aggie02, thanks for your input, seems you are right!!
I can always use my "Hi-TEX CP-SW2 computer subwoofer system", so I don't
have to buy anything and with this you could almost start bothering the
neighbours
But I was a bit surprised when tho old crappy Compq PC with onboard sound
manage without amp speakers but not my new msi mobo.
Come to think of it I have a realy old soundblaster soundcard to try out with the
Compaq speakers.
I'm still curios though, can anyone else confirm that the 865PE NEO2 FISR
demands amplification? I don't find anything in the "quick user's guide" about this.

IPad volume too low on Apple TV when watching movies

Hi.
I have the latest Apple TV, 3rd Gen iPad and Retina MacBook Pro. If I play any movie through Apple TV using my iPad (using Video App) the volume is often far too low. This means that I have to turn my Amp/Speakers up (to around +60; +40 is normal) often leading to the sound cutting out altogether and on one occassion blew my amp.
However, I can put the identical film/file on my MacBook Pro - stream that into my Apple TV and the volume outputs at +40 as normal and everything is fine.
Also - If I stream TV etc through the iPad and play it onto my Apple TV - again this can be heard no problems at +40. The same can be said if I stream a youtube video using the iPad (+40 is fine)
I can only conclude there is something amiss with my iPad or in partic the Video App/settings for films but have no idea how to remedy it.
Pls can someone help me sort this as my Macbook pro is often left in the office and so I cant use it to watch movies at home all the time
Thanks

Have you tried checking or resetting your volume limiter under "music" from the Settings home page. Scroll down to "Music" and tap "Volume Limit". Once there you can either turn it off or raise the maximum volume. If you go to the max it will just turn off the limiter.
Here's a video from CNET that also explains this easy adjustment.

Volume level too low on SoundBlaster X-Fi Extreme Au

[size="2" face="Helv">?I installed a SoundBlaster X-Fi Extreme Audio in the new higher-end system that I just got. It's a Intel Core2 Duo with plenty of dual memory on a fast bus; the 700W PS is currently only driving the base system and one Radeon 2600XT, so there should not be a power problem. I've disabled the?motherboard sound components. It's running Vista32 and I've (cleaned and) updated every driver possible. I've been through all the Knowledge Base and Forums, and have?checked out most everything that seemed potentially applicable.
?The main problem is that the volume is really too low. Even though I have every output setting at 00, the sound is just audible. I am configured only for 2. output. This is true whether I direct the output through headphones or into my analog home stereo (to get listenable levels, I have to take the gain to about 3x of any other component and get the expected associated hum from doing so); the same is true if I direct through digital system connections for HDMI to my HP w22087h monitor (also set at max)?or to my LCD TV.
?Whether part of the problem, or a result of having all the volume settings max'd, there is often a moderate 'pop' when output is started and there seems to me a "ramp up" in the volume (only about a second in length) that keep me from hearing?some of the shorter Windows 'systems sounds'. I hate to be a bother (I readily admit to not being an expert on any of this), but the loudest sound these days is from banging my head against the wall trying to fix this problem. ;-)
Thanks

When you play music from iTunes can you play it at full volulme? If so, it is not the MBP it is either something to do with the MP4 player (what are you using for that) or the conversion.

Sound level out of audio output quite low

how to raise the volume of the output of my original Intel MBP ? its output is too quiet. I can swap out various different headphones, they are all just too low. My hearing is normal. Ive got the sound turned up all the way, and listening to music and movies its just annoyingly low.
Anybody know of a software up that can jack up the volume to "are you nuts" ?

adjusting via system prefs is no different then the menu bar. Try it - they move together in real time.
the problem isnt with "adjusting something". The default electrical signal just lacks the voltage.
With the Palm Treo for example, somebody wrote an app to actually change the hardware behavior.
On Macs this has been done many times, for example the applet "Fan Control".
I was hoping somebody has heard of an app that actually makes the sound louder than the (wimpy) "loudest" default setting that a Macbook Pro can deliver.
Many people have complained the speakers arent loud enough, and my gripe is with the audio line out (analog).
Once you become aware that people have actually written apps which tell the hardware to do something it normally doesnt do, you will become a BIG FAN of this type of thing.
On my Palm Treo - I loved this !!!!!! Where is the one for the Macbook Pro ?????

X-fi Xtreme Music soundcard PROBLEM: Microphone volume too low(unusab

Hello, I've spent a while?sifting through these forums and?can't find any solution to this problem. Many people have been asking this same question and?aren't getting any solutions. When I say the microphone is?too low, I mean it's at the lowest possible volume it could?run at,?so it's unusable and?might as well not be functioning at all. Keep in mind every volume setting on the computer has been set to max.
Is their anyone?that?owns a X-fi xtreme music sound card?using a?microphone that does work?If so, what microphone are you using?I'm only?suggesting that theirs some odd settings with this card that only allow a certain kind of microphone to work with it. I'm using an old mic that works perfectly with my sb li've and that I've had for 3 years now. I'll echo the same basic details I've already checked over. They can be found in other customers' posts who are having this?same problem.) Microphone works - tested on other systems and other cards2) Microphone volume is on max - both in recording and playback (although playback is muted)3) Gain is enabled - Ticked +20dB box4) Drivers are current - tried shipped drivers, current stable, and beta release?Here are more links to this problem, which has not been solved yet:
http://forums.creative.com/creativel...ssage.id=49623
http://forums.creative.com/creativel...id=29980#M4984
I?suspect no one?has?the answer to this problem?yet. But could someone please tell me if they are using this soundcard with a mic that is working. If so please tell me what microphone you are using.

I don't know if this is the latest thread but it seems to be. Obviously this is a big prob for a lot of pee
ps.
I have Just built a new machine and included a X-Fi Extreme audio for the 8 channel sound capabilities for movie viewing etc, but .. I also run Teamspeak servers for several games ( WoW , UT , CS etc) and find myself unable to communicate using said card. problem is mic boost is available in playback mode but not in record mode. If you activate mic boost in playback it does actually increase volume in output mode also (don't ask me why) ...but not by much . Not enough for peeps on the other end to hear you while gaming. So... if you can boost mic on playback , why not on record ? which is where it is suposed to be in the first place. there are a LOT of frustrated gamers out there that have paid good money for the surround experience but are unable to do what previous cards have done well .... and that is allow communication between players . please don't ignore this as this is not an operating system problem.... i have installed this card on Vista and XP (both X64 and 32)? and still no mic boost from the software available. you know the problem .. at least acknowledge it and give an update. thank you?Fly

BT broadband too low IP profile

Hi everyone,
Before I sent a message to the mods I wanted to see if anyone here could help me out.
I have just moved to the Deddington, Oxfordshire area where I have an ASDL line with BT up to speeds of 8mbps (advertised). However over the course of the past few weeks the speed has varied from 0.4mbps to 1.7mbps for download and 0.1-0.35mbps for uploading. This is obviously pretty slow and is directly effecting my work (I need to download some data via scp from a supercomputer for my work).
I did some investigation and it seems that my IP profile is set too low and I was hoping BT could increase this to match my actual line speed. The results from the bt speedchecker are:
Download speedachieved during the test was - 1.87 Mbps

Its only showing 1 day ish for connection because I've been testing it on my master socket or others to see if this made a difference (it doesn't). I've also tried the quiet line test and that works fine. Also I've unplugged my sky box.
I think I saw something on one forum post where a user asked BT to manually increase their IP profile to close to 8mbps and then their connection improved to 6 or 7 mbps.
If anyone has any advice then I would be very grateful!
Thanks
Neil

your btspeedtester results do not agree with your stats as far as conenction speed - were they run a different times? can you run new btspeedtester and post results.
you rpofile looks stuck at 2mb and if you can post router stats showing 3+ days conenction time then you can contact the mods and get it kicked into action but need to show 3+ days conection time first

[9520] Server Memory is too low

Getting an error on our login page every once in awhile where it says [9520] Server memory is too low. New login requests are not allowed. Please contact your system Administrator. We added more ram to the VM running the server. I couldn't see anything about recommended ram settings unless I am missing something. We have GWIA, MTA and Webmail all running on the same box with 6GB of ram. Anybody have any recommendations?
Thanks,
Nathan
Update: Restarting tomcat seems to help for some time.

Section 4.1 Hardware and Operating System Requirements in the GW2014
Install Guide[1] includes
--begin--
Adequate server memory as required by the operating system
Depending on the anticipated load on the GroupWise agents, additional
memory might be required. For details, see Section 4.6, Sample Agent
Memory Requirements[2].
---end---
Section 4.6 lists 4GB under recommended memory for best performance of
GWIA and its MTA with 4GB for WebAccess application. Given those two
added together equal 8GB and you're running on virtual machine I'd
suggest that you might want to increase the amount of memory available
to the VM.
Which OS is the server running and which virtualisation platform are you
hosting the VM on?
HTH.
