• No audio HDMI with Windows 7 Ultimate

  Since the departure of Vista with Windows 7 Ultimate, I lost audio HDMI.  I can connect video successfully to my Sony KDL46VL150 but will not come out through the home theater system.  It comes via the laptop.  I tried to update the drivers, but clearly, I have not found the right pair.  I tried as well through the website of HP, and Intel.

  The audio drivers in the system are now:

  Stwrt64.sys IDT High Definition Audio CODEC Version 6.10.6276.0

  Intel(r) High Definition Audio HDMI IntcHdmi.sys Version 6.10.0.2056

  I suspect that the HDMI driver is not 64-bit.

  Any other suggestions?

  Thanks for the tips.  I downloaded the drivers and the saved on the desktop as you suggested.  However, I could not find the graphics driver as you have described.

  I also followed the following suggestion I had to re-boot with the HDMI cable connected to the TV and it worked.  I see now that I have 2 identical drivers (Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset Family) loaded in graphics cards.

  In any case, the problem is resolved.

  Thank you very much.

• 1244tx dv6 - Audio hail with Windows 7

  Hi guys,.

  I recently updated my dv6-1244tx for Windows 7 Home Premium (32 bit). Since doing so, audio quality has changed, now that intestine with no bass at all, as the audio goes through a high pass filter or something. This happens in all applications.

  I installed the latest audio drivers (or think windows are later anyway) and CODECS on the official hp, nothing helps. FWIW, mute key on the top panel is now definitely red/orange, when she used to change white to reactivate, red for silent...

  A brief google showed a few other users with similar problems, but without real solution fixed - so just wanted know if other hp owners have experienced it, or if anyone has any ideas on what I can try.

  Thank you [fingers crossed]

  Okay, as an update, I just tried to push back the IDT High Def Audio Codec for the driver installed previously, who had the same spindly (not low) audio quality.

  Then tried to put up-to-date that Codec to later, and now the media player does not play anything - a message error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with the audio device".

  So, to see if Windows can generate NO noise at all, I'm going to: Control Panel > change system sounds, where I get a message saying something like "improvements can affect the performance of your device, you want to disable the improvements?", I click OK and problem is solved - Audio returns with the bass, pleasant and perfectly crisp and clear.

  It seems that some improvements may have been enabled in the driver / default settings of codec? I'm not sure of the original problem, but am glad it's fixed.

  I hope this post helps others who have similar problems! (if you can give a sense of my ramblings!)

  See you soon,.

• NO sound when recording Audio - problems with Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit

  I got in trouble for almost a year now with NO sound when recording Audio with Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. I just found this forum today. It's really weird how recording with windows and other sound recorder works perfectly since 1998 or so until the upgrade to win 7. Now every time I try to record it shows no found recording device or just fails to record any sound. As you'll see below I have activated What U Hear so I can use the system recording features sounds.

  I use the functions of audio recording and pdf reader because I'm legally blind. It is one of the few tools that I could use with ease on all my systems windows for many years.

  A similar question has started happening with nvidia graphics cards. AND... I was led to believe that it was a problem with Sony wanting more strong piracy measures built into windows. Am I correct to assume that this is what is happening with the sound also today or is there a solution to this frustrating problem?

  I run a dxdiag & posted that, according to me, you asked another user on the forum, the same or similar problem.

  Help solve this problem would be greatly appreciated as this has been a problem for quite a while now.

• False track audio times with Windows Media Player.

  I use Audacity to record LP's and then burn it to a CD with Windows Media Player. When the pieces are added to the Windows Media Player burn list, channel 1 and 3 always show the track record time for 9 & 8 minutes adding unused time at the time of the correct record.  I can only get 60 minutes or less on a 80 minute CD.

• The audio volume with Windows XP Pro. Result of the SP3 distorted audio recorder?

  Hello.

  Is it me or don't drop result audio volume of my WAV in a Windows XP Pro update. SP3 sound recorder? Is this a bug in this program or something else?

  Also, does anyone know a good free audio program that will make lots more low audio volume in a bunch old WAV files? One is a pain in the abdomen end-to-end. :(

  Thank you in advance. :) Ant @ Ant links fed quality (http://aqfl.net) and The Ant Farm (http://antfarm.ma.cx).

  Audacity will do what you want - a good. Its freeware and is a full blown audio editor. You need to normalize your track and to use a negative value to reduce the volume.

  http://Audacity.sourceforge.NET/

  One thing though: If your wav file already has a built-in distortion (that is to say "clipping" - when some parts of the song go above 0 dbl and so distort) nothing you do will get rid of the break of the said.

  You can see this by looking at the waveform track in Audacity. Is there is no flat areas where there should be highs, and they are above 0dbl then your track is cut off and there is a high risk of distortion. Is there is no flat areas (only the peaks) then your track should be ok (as long as they are not above 0dbl) and you can 'normalize' it.

  Try Googling "normalize batch file" (or similar), you can find what you want.

  See you soon,.

  No guarantee, but the following may be worth a try:

  Open Windows Media Player...

  Reach... Tools / Options / tab Devices...

  Select your CD/DVD drive...

  On the left, click on the properties button...

  Uncheck (clear) the playback area "use Error Correction"...

  Apply / OK / OK...

  In case of failure... install an AC3 Filter can be worth a try:

  (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
  Restore point before installing software or updates)

  AC3Filter downloads

  Ignore the button 'Download' giant and scroll down

  Download the filter on your desktop and install from there.

• Audio distortion with keyboard and mouse

  Recently bought an Acer TC-605 from best buy.  He spent a few days in downloading and installing the latest windows updates.  When I start it first using the computer, I'd work on something in ms office and listening to itunes at the same time.  Audio would sound perfect while perhaps 15 to 30 minutes, then skew thereafter, whenever I moved the mouse or use the keyboard.  Tried to update all the drivers, but did not.  However, when I remove the mouse usb cable and reinstall the problem disappears.  But 15 to 30 minutes later, problem comes back again.  It would be a bit embarrassing to reinsert the usb mouse taken every half hour.  Purchase and installation of a pci usb card will fix the problem?  I think that maybe my onboard usb ports must be bad.  Or is the problem with something else?

• How can I play the audio stream with Windows Media Player 11 AAC?

  Hello

  I want to listen to a live stream of a Shoutcast radio station which is in AAC format. I want to play with my Windows Media Player 11 on Windows XP SP3. I still don't play. It seems that it is not supported by WMP 11, but if missing a codec, it should be automatically downloaded from Microsoft, since the option "Download codecs automatically" is checked in the options of WMP, and my security level in Internet Options is set by default.

  Y at - there a way or a codec plugin, so I can play the stream AAC on WMP 11?

  Thank you.

  Assem

  Orban AAC/aacPlus Plugin will allow WMP 11 to play AAC streams. Note that you have to replace the http stream with icyx URL part, so to read your example AAC stream, you must enter icyx://109.234.157.154:2012 in WMP, via file - Open URL...

• Audio distortion with headphones

  So I only got my Xperia Z5 for a week or two. This morning, I put on music, and in the middle of my commute to work the sound became saturated. He was really strong bass notes that has overshadowed everything and bad static which crosses. I tested my headphones on different applications on the phone - music Amazon and Youtube - and the sound was still distorted. I also tinkered around with the sound settings and restarted my phone several times. No change.

  I tested my headphones on my PC and excluded from my helmet as the possible source of distortion. It's certainly the Xperia Z5 Act up.

  Anyone has any idea why?

  I checked that my software is up to date as well. The sound was fine until this morning. :/

  Everyone knows this?

• Audio problem with WIndows 8 OS of the beats on the Pavilion DV6-6109tx

  Hello! First of all, my apologies if I posted in the wrong section or the bad, hp support forum do not know where to post.

  Now, coming to the point, encircled sliders Beats Audio Control Panel do not work as shown in the attached snapshot, makes no difference at all.

  

  Since I couldn't find Windows 8 drivers for my laptop model (very strange since I saw older models, getting divers to windows 8, but not my model), I tried different drivers but none of them work.
  These are audio driver packages I've tried:
  sp58226.exe

  sp59154.exe
  sp59861.exe

  Without these parameters of non-working is terrible.

  So if anyone can help me, I'll be really grateful.

  Thank you.

  Just to note, it does not appear that this unit has been certified for Windows 8.

  This site gives an idea of what to expect during the upgrade to Windows 8.

  The only step I can recommend at this stage is to install the driver of Windows 7 BEATS being related to the driver software audio compatibility mode.

  1. Download this driver.

  2. run the download when it's over. Follow the instructions and you should get a screen that asks you where to save the files. The default value must be c:\swsetup\sp55094. Take note of the destination on the screen. Click next and must complete the extraction process.

  3. after extraction, it opens a new window for installation. Cancel this window.
  Navigate to the folder of extraction.

  4. in this folder, find the real Installer. This is usually setup.exe. Right click on this file and select troubleshoot compatibility.

  5. follow the resolution of compatibility issues by selecting automatic options.

  6. one of the Setup screens will be a button for test program. Click here to begin the installation.

  7. Once completed, it must be installed in compatibility mode.

  This will give the best chance of success. If it does not, then it's a deeper problem of compatibility as Windows 8 driver architecture is different from Windows 7.

• Audio distorted with the iMac and the Mavericks with CS6

  I am running Prime Pro CS6 on an iMac OSX 10.9.1 running. [Mavericks]  I was trying to record a voice during an existing sequence, using the internal mic.

  First the mic has recognized and record voice, but the sound quality is terrible, rough and very distorted. I tried different levels in the audio mixing without result Panel. What should I do to avoid the distortion?

  Hi sethiker,

  Are you updated for Premiere Pro CS6 (6.0.4)?
