Pissed 3538, no sound just continiuos beep

Version: 5, 10, 00, 3538 - debug
Kompiliert: Jul 14 2005 17:05:13
-------------------

Hi there,

i use Dvb-S and sometimes (most times...) if i change a channel.. or play a videofile and jump forward or back or open another ... everytime the sounds have do start now i get sometimes no sound but only containious beep ....... from the speakers...

The only think i can do is to Restart my Windows, then the Sound is back.

Using a SoundBlaster Audigy1 with WindowsXP SP2.

With Linux there are no Sound Problems. So its a Problem with the drivers.
I was first thinkig its because of my SkyStar2 DVB-S Card.. but the same problem is if i dont c TV and just play Video Files... i open.. i open.. and anywhere anytime i open a other file.. peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee........... .....
Restart...

TERRIBLE!

What can i do?
-----------------------------


Hallo da,

ich nutze DVB-S und manchmal (meistens) wenn ich den Kanal wechsel oder ein Videofile abspiele und vor und zurückspule oder ein anderes Öffne... jedesmal wenn der Sound also neu starten muss hab ich manchmal keinen Sound mehr sondern nur noch ein Pfeifen.. Pieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.......... ...

Das einzige was ich dann noch tun kann ist Windows neu zu starten, dann ist der Sound zurück.

Ich nutze eine SoundBlaster Audigy1 mit Windows XP SP2.

Mit Linux habe ich keine Soundproble,e. So muss es also ein Treiberproblem sein.
Ich dachte erst es liegt an meiner SkyStar2 DVB-S Karte... aber dasselbe Problem habe ich wenn ich kein TV schaue sondern nur Videofiles abspiele.. ich öffne eins.. ein anderes.. und irgendwo irgendwann wieer PIIIIEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.......
Neustart...

SCHRECKLICH!

Was kann ich tun?

Is the DVB card sanding audio via a LINE INPUT on your sound card - or is it JUST a PCI card with an antenna input?

If so - try changing the TV software and Media player (maybe is using windows defualt as set in the SOUND and AUDIO DEVICES applet in the windows control panel)
For instance - if its using DirectSound - Try WAVE output - or vise-versa.

No, the DVB-S Card has no Outputs
Just PCI with Ant-In

I've the same Problem WITHOUT Using The Card (not seeing TV just play Video with Media Player Classic (MPC)

Hmm - did you try changing the windows default audio device?.


edit:

Hmmm....
This isn't making sense - unless its a bug with your card model. - in which case - you should post the info found in the KX help/about screen.

Another thing to look at is you mobos PCI latency. Set it as low as possible

Which makes me wonder what your system specs are (Proccessor/mobo/ramvideo card)

Also - have a look in the device manager to see if what devices are sharing the same interupt.


Just to be clear:

You have no problems until after running TV card? - is this correct?

And - your getting exact same behaviour no matter what version of KX you try?

if you encounter such a problem, close all audio applications, open kx console, type 'rv' (reset voices)
then playback any midi file -- watch your 'voice analyzer' window to be 100% sure all the voices were allocated
this should fix the problem in 99% cases
if this fails, unload kxmixer, go to device manager, disable your audio card, re-enable it, then execute 'kxmixer --startup'

nature of this issue is unknown, no fix is planned

"No fix" is just too bad.

I'm experiencing this issue with 3537 and with 3538 too (and it surely was earlier).

----------------------------------------------------
When starting/stopping playback (changing songs in WinAmp is the most common case), it occasionally happens that there is no sound but just -BEEEEEEEEEP- coming from all the speakers.

I found one temporary remedy - I begin starting/stopping playback a lot of times and eventually it gets fixed. But this takes up to 40-60 seconds and it can appear again at any time (even immediately after 'fixing'). I will check if the voice reset helps here.

What can I further check to help you resolve this issue? Have plenty of exp. in 80x86 ASM, some exp. in SoftICE etc. but've almost forgot all Windows internals by now... The issue is serious for me, I'm thinking to go to the shitty integrated ALC650 'cause kX is buggy for me and Creative drivers can't give me 5.1...

BTW. Thanks for the driver A LOT. They saved me from ALC, even if they are buggy.
