Mute Audio in games and Skype calls

Hi all

I had a problem with my laptop for a while now, about the audio quality during the intensive use of games or other software resources. While palying games, music, whatever music in the game or something I play in the background, fade in and out "smothered" distortion that sounds terrible. The strange case of this is in the game Killing Floor, where the music sounds very well during the waves of fighting, but then becomes horribly distorted when the menus and merchant shop time. I tried updating my audio drivers, but it did not help.

A list of games/software in which this happened:

Killing Floor
Minecraft, I am also a call Skype or ventrilo at the same time
Unreal Tournament 2004
Cry of fear (half-life mod)
Second Life
Dungeon Defenders
Garrys Mod
StarCraft 2

  • Reproduction through loudspeakers for computer, no helmet, when during an audio Skype call

    Hi all

    I've seen a few of these topics that are similar, but none that I have met have my setup. Let me describe quickly.

    I have my laptop speakers, a usb headset that I use for Skype and that I don't have permanent plugged into the laptop using a mini-jack.

    The problem I have is that whenever I'm on a Skype call, it seems, as all audio workarounds (except the Skype call), my helmet and comes straight out of my laptop speakers. My usb headset works as it should as the default communications device.

    Can any suggestions on how I make sure that the sound signal (non-Skype) happens in my helmet when I'm on a call?

    Thank you!

    Kenneth

    Hi, thanks for the response.

    Basically, the reason for audio devices is that it is my work computer. So I have decent headphones for practically everything. Then I have the headset for Skype and other communication applications. The speakers of the laptop, I didn't really the possibility of withdrawing

    I managed to fix the problem by removing an audio device that seemed to isolate my headphones into the socket. This means that the 2 devices are separated instead of having an audio option of the speakers/headphones.

    Hope this was able to help someone else with the same problem.

    Thanks again,

  • How to get Skype calls to overlay full-screen games in windows 10

    Hi.Here is my problem: in Windows 10, while I'm in a game session full screen, if someone calls me on Skype, instead of a small window centered to answer the call on the current game I get a black screen. In windows 7, it wasn't the case, I could just answer of in the game, just by clicking on the small window that overlayied the game and continue playing happily. I know that it's more a problem of Windows 10, but if we could get Skype to work stacking game would be nice, especially since a black screen on you the current game session is very dissruptive.

    Well, I tried anyway, but I don't think it could be fixed, because in windows10 any notifications get you a black screen, in some cases, it crashes the game (all within a game fullscreen).

  • Microphone internal mute after a Skype call

    Devices/Skype Info: LG G Pad 8.3 (V500) w / stock Android 5.0.2 & WiFi (home network), Skype v6.15.0.1162

    After completing a call Skype the internal MIC is silent and does not work in subsequent calls or among all the apps of the device (e.g., Google Voice Search, Hangouts, WhatsApp, etc.). Only after restarting the device, the internal MIC will work again.

    Steps to reproduce:
    1. start a Skype call (no matter if it's with or without video). The microphone works well, both parties can hear each other.
    2 to end the call (regardless of which party the call hangs).

    After the end of the call from the internal microphone stops working. If I run a new call, I can hear the other party but they don't hear me. The icon to mute the mic than silent watch is turned off (active micro) and clicking it has no effect (i.e. only changes the appearance of the icon but the mic is always cut in any case). The microphone does not work until the next reboot. This problem affects all applications using the MIC until the next reboot.

    This same behavior happened a few months before, but it was fixed after Skype update. This could be a regression.

    There is absolutely no problem at all when you use the microphone with the rest of the applications (except if a call is made with Skype).

    Fixed prior to version 6.19.0.460 (probably a couple of versions).

    Thank you guys!

  • Import a saved in Premiere Pro & audio Skype call going out of sync. Help, please!

    Everytime I try and import a clip he gets out of sync, but if I open the file in quicktime, its perfect format?

    (Not sure why this answer was initially rejected by the moderators, but try again.)

    A solution that has worked for us:

    [EDIT] I do NOT work for all the companies included in this solution, nor what I receive any type of compensation on their behalf I record software and the steps that we used to solve the problem of the original poster. [END EDIT]

    Skype Call Recorder (Ecamm) has 4 built-in splitter/converter apps (you have to look in the folder "Movie files" to find them). We used apps to split recorded Skype video calls in 2 separate 'conversations' and then used a converter free online (http://www.online-convert.com/) to convert the talks MP4s. Once the MP4s were imported into Adobe Premiere audio perfectly aligned with the video.

    Hope this helps someone.

  • HP Jet 8: Flow using 8 with a helmet on a Skype call

    Hello. I intend to use my Tablet 8 flow during a Skype call to come, and I also intend to use headphones in the headphone jack by. Will this break from my internal microphone, and if so, headphones with a microphone will solve this problem? I'm basically just wanting to know how to do this in advance, so there is no problems that arise at the time of the call. I may have misunderstood some things I read about it, like needing a type of adapter, etc. Thank you.

    Thank you very much! Haha, I forgot everything Skype audio and video, testing services.

  • Cisco TelePresence SX20 + VCS 8.2 Server and Skype for business 2015

    Nice day! My name is Dimitri! Have Cisco TelePresence SX20 + VCS 8.2 Server and Skype for business 2015. Is it possible to set up a conference call SFB and appeal to all subscribers of this conference? At present, we can only call on a single client and SFB. We have the current version of the software TCNC5.1.4.295090 SX20 - is it possible he obnoviti 7, and it will help to improve the situation? Thank you!

    I'm no expert on this technology, but I have some idea and already deployed some projects dealing with the integration of Cisco (CUCM, VCS) video infrastructure to Microsoft video infra like Lync. It would be the same process to make it work in your case.

    How does your deployed SFB? How do you do a conference for audio and video, participants can join the conference by dialing?

    • Mediation server would be required as a front-end server for you to integrate IP/PBXS using SIP trunk to enable voice (audio) Conference with the participants to the PSTN.
    • AVMCU Should be (Audio video Multipoint Conferencing Unit) will host the video conference that will include video endpoints as participants.
    • Video of Interop (SCREW) Server would be required to interface your SFB to third video conference infrastructure such as Cisco UCM or VCS for the endpoints Cisco call client SFB of endpoint of Cisco to participate to the conference organised on SFB by dialing the conference number.

    I'd say contact your AM SFB or Support as well for queries about how to plan your infrastructure SFB and direction.

    Kind regards

  • In the hearing of the CP, how can you record a Skype call?

    I don't see a way to get Skype as input source.

    You probably can't.   Audition records just any signal that is called by the audio device to your computer, be it the sound chip on board basis or a professional audio interface.  It is on the controls to you audio device that you have selected your source.

    Unfortunately, most of the manufacturers have removed options like "What U Hear" or "Line Out" of their selection menus. "  It was under pressure from the recording industry who thought that this ability was used to pirate music.

    There are ways around it for Skype.   There is a piece of software called 'Virtual Audio Cable"which would let you do - unfortunately not free and quite tedious to put in place.  Virtual Audio cable home page

    Or, if you can deal with recording in a separate bit of software and editing at the hearing, there are a number of specialist Skype recorders.  I used one called "ifree Skype Recorder" recording Skype calls with iFree Skype Recorder - your FREE Skype software call recorder with great success.

    Finally, if you have mixer etc. Sometimes, I have rigged a system to use my smartphone to call Skype, create UNMIS RSS mix in mixer and record at the hearing.  I must admit that it was more to see if I could because I had to!

  • How do I create multitrack when on Skype calls?

    I use hearing as the primary recording for my podcast software. When I have guests I use Skype to call. In the current set up, audio of everyone is on the same track. How can I put my audio on a track and Skype on another recording?

    Microsoft/Skype deprecated and removed a large part of their old SDK allowing applications easily analyze the various participants in a call and save them as separate stream.  Unfortunately, hearing will not be able to perform this task for you at this time.  There are third-party applications that are supposed to do, but I would recommend their research very carefully before buying anything as there seems to be a lot of suspicious or inactive there applications as well.

    One way many podcasts to solve this problem is to use Skype or Google Hangouts to facilitate the global conversation, but each participant makes a local record of their side of the conversation.  This separates the tracks well enough, but it guarantees that all tracks are of much better quality than a typical Skype call.  There may be problems with the drift of the clock, when sync starts to drag, but this can be corrected.

  • Any way to mute audio while (RAM) Preview frames are rendered?

    I scoured the boards to do this and I can't seem to find an answer. My system is working well, but since the new preview function, (formerly 'Preview RAM') has been implemented whenever I give an overview of the system "beeps" audio, image by image, such that it makes. It's as if she strives to re-read everything to 1 or 2 images per second, including audio. It is extremely annoying when you have made a long enough with audio necessary for reading, especially with a customer in the room, trying to make a phone call while the system leaves escape 'PPE.... " EPP... EPP... PPE' a few minutes wile the timeline bar is becoming green.

    Of course, you can manually cut the machine while rendering that is happening, but is possible to return to the fashion preview RAM worked? In other words, to cache all frames before trying audio playback?

    My apologies if I missed this in the preference settings or boards.

  • iPad Mini 4 has no sound in a lot of games and other applications?

    I just got an iPad mini 4th generation and I noticed that the sound does not work in a lot of games and maybe other apps. Is there some sort of widespread compatibility issue?  It doesn't seem to be a hardware problem.  For example, Grand Theft Auto III has its on-screen title, but it has no sound after that. Other totally different games from other developers have the same problem, or no sound at all, for example the tiles of the Piano has no sound. Other applications such as YouTube or Vimeo have no trouble with the sound.

    It seems unlikely there's anything physically broken but there are a lot of apps with no noise (most of these games). What can I do?

    You have checked to see if you've cut notification via the control center sounds: turn on Mute and Orientation lock on iPad Pro, mini iPad or iPad 2 Air 4 - Apple Support ?
