  • Satellite A105-S4344 - DVD playback is slow & audio is choppy

    I'm having a problem with DVD playback on my a105-s4344.

    DVD playback is delayed, slow and audio is choppy and delayed also.

    BUT the movies that I play through iTunes work well, those who are bought and on my hard drive.

    It only occurs with DVDs I try to play in any program I try to play the movie.

    I tried several movies, new, old, burned, bought, etc.

    All the same problem.

    Help. I don't know what to do.

    Hello

    If this delay seems to play only the movies and audio by using the CD/DVD drive, then you should check this short work around:

    1) access Device Manager
    (2) expand the IDE ATA/ATAPI option
    (3) go to the primary IDE channel-> properties-> Advanced settings
    (4) here, you should check if DMA if available has been chosen
    If it s not set to DMA if available, then remove the primary IDE channel of the list of devices and reboot the laptop.
    After that the laptop has started again, check again the single point and check if DMA if available appears again

  • Preview of Skype audio/video settings

    I use Skype on the anniversary edition of Windows. I have three independent audio devices on my Surface Pro 3 - audio device + a Jabra GN9350 and a Microsoft webcam camera + speaker. Where can I say Skype Preview which device to use for audio or video calls? I used to go to tools-> Options-> Audio Settings but I can't find the menu bar. I looked in the settings and not to see any reference to audio/video. I DON'T want to use the default system that will mess up my sound preferences for non-Skype applications. I also use another device for Skype for business that I do for the preview of Skype, so I need an independent way to configure Skype Preview. Help, please!

    I forgot that I was going to type something else, in order to hear it is...

    You can't use Skype preview, you can still use Skype desktop program, just disconnect from the preview and launch the desktop program and log as you did.

  • My Skype Audio is not playing AT ALL

    10/22/16, I called my friends then I left for a while and came back, the sound was completely gone. It is always. And please no, I already restarted my computer, mingled with the settings and just waited, but nothing happened. Please tell me a quick solution to this problem. Thank you!

  • Skype audio + speaker problem

    If I play a game that sound ingame will come on my laptop speakers, I fixed but now my problem is that I can't turn down the volume of a call. so I can't do if the volume mixer because I have disabled to solve the other problem. I also tried to go to options, options volume and it decreases my volume but that did not work. other options are welcome to: [email removed for privacy and security]

    Hi, what OS is your race?

    I recently had the sound being too strong issue with Skype on my desktop Windows 10 and the fix was to go to controller in Device Manager / sound, select the controller that was VIA HD Audio in my case and select "update driver". That fixed the problem for me and I can control the volume of Skype calls once more.

    I think that there was a generic Windows driver sound update recently that messed up some controllers sound, but now my VIA HD Audio has the correct drivers Win 10.

  • Skype audio bug using headset

    I want to post a bug I've found with Skype on the touchpad with 3.0.2 (might as well be 3.0).  I got my Palm Pre plugged headphones (with microphone) and a Skype appealed and everything worked perfectly (as long the end has Skype 5.3 or under on their PC).    During the call, I took off my helmet and the counterparty could no longer hear my voice (I could hear the background conversation). I tried activating / that disabling audio muting option and which did not. Connect the headset didn't solve it either. I had to drop the call and the recomposition of the head of audio to work again.  This has been replicated several times and took place I initialized the call with the headset or and tried switching.

    We tested this question here and we get the same results. We will be passing this problem along for control engineering group. Please report this problem.

  • Audio workflow for Skype necessary records

    Hey everybody,

    My name is Quin and I did a podcast in my spare time. I use Adobe Audition for both multitrack and registration work, and a recent addition, I did the podcast is recording Skype calls with some people. I wanted to bring in Audition to work with, but I found it quite difficult. First of all, Skype audio settings are (as shown in the screenshot below) quite limited.skype recording.png

    The same files they are audio only - are saved in .mov format and I when I put them in hearing, they are open as stereo audio files with four channels (I think it's the phase) even if they audio seems to be exactly the same in both channels.

    Screenshot at Nov 09 18-35-09.png

    I use the range markers to find audio clips I want to insert into the multitrack view. Records that I do at home (inside the application of hearing) with microphones and an apogee Duet, the sound comes out like this:

    Screenshot at Nov 09 19-38-24.png

    This audio is really easy to segment and a non-destructive mix in audition multitrack mode. I can use a Bus, and transform this audio in stereo simply (the audio appears in both channels)

    What I'm trying to discern is the best way to take the first section of the audio (with four channels) and send it to the multitrack. When I take a marker of the .mov file range convert and send it to the multitrack mode, multitrack audio levels are far away. Only half of the audio comes as amplified and I can't use a bus to mix to the point where the noise levels are correct. It looks like this, which is not at all what the original noise levels were recorded (see the first screenshot of the display of waveform above):Screenshot at Nov 09 19-41-44.png

    Does anyone have a suggested workflow for how I can convert this audio so it aligns the recordings that I make at home? I tried several methods, but they all seem quite long and contrary to intuition and I would really like to hear some busy people more professionally on how I can do that, ideally, reducing to a minimum the number of destructive changes I make to the original audio file. If I do an initial conversion, it's cool, in which case I'd like to hear some suggestions on how to do the same.

    Thank you very much for your time and help,

    Quin

    It is quite easy to get rid of the duplicates. If you click on the track controls (the L R boxes and on the RIGHT side of each track) you can turn off each duplicate, and then they will appear gray on the screen. Then go Ctrl + A to select the entire file and then Shift Alt + C to copy the selection to a new. Only the operating range will be copied, so you'll end up with just both sides of the conversation in stereo, which is what you want. You must save this, and it becomes your working copy. There is another advantage to this as well - will now change you a copy of the original and the original will remain untouched, so you can always go back to it. It is still considered to be good practice!

  • Audio problem

  • What is (and isn't!) free with Skype?

    I am a "newbie" to Skype & am confused about what is free with Skype Office program! Throughout the site are things like "make free video calls", but calls to fixed and mobile lines seem to require a subscription & an accusation of "cost per minute! How can I make free video calls from Mobile/smartphone for smartphone/laptop computer using Skype without a phone number?

    You can do it if Skype is also installed on this computer laptop/smartphone. To make Skype-to-Skype audio and video calls for free, you can not call a number in phone but another user of Skype. To do this, you must do this Skype Skype username (ID) in your contact list.

    I tested a few configurations in Skype.

    It seems that Soundflower didn't cause the kernel panic. Apperantly, they were caused by a port leak that occurs when Skype audio settings are set to 'Even in as system'.

    A solution that worked for me was to configure all audio (including Ringing) devices to another audio device instead of "Even as a system" in Skype Audio/video settings.
