Stereo mix problems, Windows xp.

I recently tried to play a game on justin tv data stream. However while the stream picks up my microphone, he does not pick up in the sounds of the game. I tried also to connect speakers but that did not help either one. I updated my drivers entirely (Realtek HD audio input/output all AFAIK, tried dxdiag and did not model number).

I saw videos of people right clicking and allowing a stereo mix in the menus, but only mine says "what is this?  That I don't understand that I'm on the computer as an administrator surely I should be able to right click and a menu?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello

Here's how you can accomplish this:
a. Click Start and go to Control Panel then sounds and devices.
b. in the Audio tab under "Sound recording", click the "Volume" button and enable stereo mix.
Note: If you see no stereo mix, then go to Options then properties and select stereo mix and click OK.

I hope this helps.

Thank you, and in what concerns:

    Make sure that the Realtek driver is installed. If it is you will then see the words "Realtel HD ' on your recording & reading tabs.

    If no luck with the latest Realtek, then try the older version. If still no luck then go to the Realtek site and get a "High definition" driver from there.

  • No stereo mix in Windows 7 Please Help!

    I have read all over the internet but none of the solutions help me. I use the stereo mix to send sounds on MSN using the record as well as the use of the mic button. The works of fine micro 7 and stereo mix used to work in Windows XP and vista, but now in windows 7 on the same machine (for laptop Acer 4420) there aren't no stereo mix. I go to the sound control panel and then do a right click and say

    Show disabled devices
    Show disconnected devices

    and everything that comes is the microphone monitor, card his microphone and line. I need to work under Windows 7 stereo mix.

    I wrote using the Council of responses of microsoft twice now and he ignored me, I asked on yahoo answers, they ignored me. I even wrote to realtek and they got ignored also twice now, I will communicate the better business bureau to complain about customer service, if I can't find a solution. I tried to find a solution for a month now!

    I solved the stereo problem. I went back to the H/P and asked them to fix it. and they updated the bios and updated audio driver. Lokks like is an older driver but it works fine and I have my stero return. The update of the bios is the solution, as well as to update driver.

  • How to turn on the stereo mix in Windows 8?

    Former title: stereo mix

    How the stereo mix, or what you hear option in Windows 8

    OK thanks for your quick response

    Regret for taking the trouble with this issue but I have answers.

    This selection of stereo mix was not in existence, or I would have done it as explained. I know where and how to look.

    the really important information, I want to convey is the following.

    I discovered that's NOT at all a problem of Microsoft.

    What had to happen is to get a card sound motherboard driver update which adds this functionality (came out January 2013)

    Specifically Asus P8Z77 - V PRO

    This same question on the net on any available stereo selection showing in Win 8.

    Maybe for all we the same question about the driver updates (I'm not an expert), but maybe they could be pushed in that direction instead of win 8 corrects

    Good news is win 8 works like a charm and so far am in love!

    I hope to hear from you guys. Thank you.

    Hi Jimco,

    Thanks for the reply! I finally found the solution!

    Actually, I need to change the driver to get the stereo mix. In my case, my driver file name is chdrt.inf

    There are these lines that disable the stereo mix

    ; HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,enable,1,01

    ; HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,MixAssocSeq,1,E0,E0

    ; HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,MuteGainSettings,1,00,00

    Everything you have to do is remove the semicolon, it should be...

    HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,enable,1,01

    HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,MixAssocSeq,1,E0,E0

    HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,MuteGainSettings,1,00,00

    then save the file, reinstall the driver using "Browse my computer for driver software". I got the stereo mix of baby! Whoah!

  • stereo mix is available, but not sound in Windows 8

    I have a problem of Stereo-Mix with a new desktop computer Windows 8 HP.  The stereo mix is set as default in the HEALTHY management system registration window.  When I play something on the computer (for example a .wav file) there is no indication that sound is passed through the device of stereo mix.  In my old HP with Win 7 the stereo mix would sound played in the computer and I could save it.  Now I can't save it because the stereo mix does not sound on my machine Win 8.  My computer has Audio Beats control for the sound in the Envy Phoenix 800 computer.  Is there another setting I'm missing?  How can I get the stereo mix of the function?  Thank you. Ken

    No, I don't have any device Realtek on my computer; but my problem was solved.  Suggestions were made through all the Audio devices to manage and reduce the volume of unused devices.  I adjusted all the volumes in the audio device window of Windows (on record), Beats Audio window; refused to volumes that are not used for playback devices and checked my recording software - hearing.  It seems to work pretty well now.  Thank you.

  • Stereo mix on Vostro Windows 7

    Hello

    I have a Vostro 3550 running Windws 7 64-bit.

    The stereo mix option is not available in the settings of the sound card. I've updated the drivers from the Dell website, but no difference.

    In the recording settings, the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC is marked as "not available".

    Is there a solution?

    Thanks in advance

    IM actually trying to find a solution equivalent to stereo mix to record audio streams.

    Rec.Playback records streams. You can only have one record source at a time, so be sure that nothing else is the default source, including microphones. If it still isn't available right click and look in "show disabled devices" to see if it is disabled.

  • Satellite A300 - series stereo Mix unavailable with the Conexant audio driver

    Hello...

    I have laptop Toshiba Satellite A300 PSAJ0E...
    I was using Windows XP Professional...

    But I'm not able to use Stereo Mix so special...
    I installed the Driver Conexant HD SmartAudio 221...

    What can I do in this topic...

    I thank right now...

    Best regards...

    Unfortunately, but you can not do much
    The point is that it is a Conexant audio driver problem. This option or parameter is simply not available in the Conexant audio driver and as a result the port of stereo mix is not available and cannot be used.

    I don't think a driver update audio can help so expect an update.

  • Record stereo mix Inspiron 7559

    I've had my Dell Inspiron 7559 since the eve of Christmas 2015 and I touch screen 4K i7 6700HQ 16 GB of Ram GTX 960 M 4 GB VRAM, 128 GB SSD, 1 TB HARD drive and I want to start with the minor problem on some pixels are blurred and the wrong color, I painted a single line shape free white paint on a black background and inspect the pixels close I saw that some pixels are turning green despite being supposed to appear white.

    And sometimes automatically screen adapts its lighting according to the color of the pixel range takes more space, for example to resize a window of (dark) steam will affect on the general atmosphere of the screen by slightly changing the color of the other windows, particularly visible with white windows.

    My main complaint is the following: I had a lot of trouble with the audio.

    I read that there are static pop noises there on many models, I have that too, then I noticed that I couldn't record while headphones/earphones were plugged into the output in January 2016 Jack with stereo mix, I have not tested if I still have the question now, because another problem came made me avoid a recording on your laptop

    When recording with stereo mix, even with improvements by maxx audio dell disabled, only the low frequencies are registered, either with Windows recorder or audacity store and I compared the spectra of the record that I did with stereo mix of the laptop 7559 and registration for the 7559 spectrum showed me only the low frequencies being recorded and my other pc , and he could be heard that only low frequencies had been recording, he gave the audio effect deaf when I read the record.

    I tried to uninstall the drivers, I do not remember how, but I managed to get it back for some time and I could save with good results until the problem is back for a reason which I am not aware of.

    The speakers saturate when there is low frequencies even at low-medium volume, and sometimes bass you hear about with some more complex pieces of audio.

    Video with audio recording with Nvidia shadowplay somehow works perfectly fine, despite the static noise pop and the poor quality of stereo mix audio recording

    I'm frustrated by the poor quality of the audio related applications, I had related graphics problems causing bsod drivers nvidia in late December and I had someone at Dell guide me through the possible solutions and I was very pleased by the quality of their support to this question, but now I'm afraid that my sound related questions cannot be resolved due to bad quality with drivers control software or devices.

    Again, I had indeed managed to restore the good quality recording with stereo mix but somehow after a while and after turning back on the pc as usual he re presented the problem and my recordings would only produce low frequencies.

    I'm waiting for answers, and I hope that I am provided with effective solutions, but above all a quality support.

    (I also consider ever buy a Dell laptop again)

    the guarantee remains valid until December 17th 2016

    I read that there are static pop noises there on many models.

    Solutions that offered owners are summarized in the FAQ Audio Choppy/jump. There are about 10 of them in the section Inspiron 7559. One owner had replaced "components."

    Snipeinscientist
    I tried to uninstall the drivers, I do not remember how, but I managed to get it back for some time and I could save with good results until the problem is back for a reason which I am not aware of.

    I could try all the different audio drivers for the i7559 and see if one of them fixes the problem. If we correct it, but the problem returns, one reason for this is that Windows 10 frequently "updates" of the system. [Don't think you mentioned is what operating system on laptop computer].

    Before you try the drivers, get rid of all the files of the Realtek driver on the hard drive.

    1. open Device Manager (found in the Control Panel, or type devmgmt.msc in the search box).
    2. expand the section 'Sound, video & game controllers.
    3. right click on "Realtek High Definition" Audio.
    4. click on "Uninstall".
    5. put a check mark in the option to remove the software driver, click ok.
    6. restart the laptop. Because you deleted the Realtek driver files, Windows will install its native audio driver, named "High definition Audio Device".
    7 go back to Device Manager and look for "high definition Audio Device". If you see "Realtek High Definition Audio" once again, this means that there is another version of the Realtek driver on your hard drive and Windows found and installed it. So keep uninstall & reboot until Realtek is no longer appears under his... Controllers and "High definition Audio Device" appears in its place.

    At this stage, go to the drivers Inspiron 7559 html page and download a driver for your operating system. Realtek audio drivers are available for the following 64-bit operating systems: Win 7, Win 8.1 (WB64A) and Win10 (WT64A). Start with the oldest one for your operating system, the test, then get the next more old ones. If you switch from the former to the most recent you shouldn't have to remove the files from the driver between the facilities.

    If none is satisfactory, you can also try one directly from the Realtek site.

    1. go to the Realtek download selection page. http://www.Realtek.com.tw/downloads/
    2. on the page, click on 'High Definition Audio Codecs.
    3. check "I accept", then "next".
    4. (optional) in the column named "Description" find the file named README and download it. Who has the instructions for the installation or update.
    5. in the column named "Description" select your operating system and if it is 32-bit or 64-bit of 2 choices in the list.
    6. in the column named "Download", click one of the server names to download the driver.

    Snipeinscientist
    (I also consider ever buy a Dell laptop again)

    It's just. I would say that, regardless of the brand or model of computer, test carefully while remaining within the return period and return if unsatisfactory.

  • Can't see stereo mix on Dell Inspiron 7520

    Hello

    I know it is a problem that lasts for years and I googled and read a lot of forum posts on this topic but I still can't understand.

    I have a new Dell Inspiron 7520 and I want to use the stereo mix function, so I can record audio coming out of my Conexant SmartAudio HD card.

    I tried to open the driver and .inf file commenting on these three lines:

    HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,enable,1,01

    HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,MixAssocSeq,1,E0,E0

    HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,MuteGainSettings,1,00,00

    I then go back into Device Manager and re - install the driver Conexant by accessing the location of the .inf file that I just edited (by removing the comments of semi-colons). But I get the error message: "Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it - Conexant HD Audio - the system cannot find the file specified. '. Just before I noticed it says that the driver is not signed, which could be a problem as I have Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit.

    Any advice greatly appreciated.

    I got it to work!

    The solution involves the file the modified driver .inf and re - install this file. Here, I explain what I did in case anyone else has this same problem. This should work for any Windows 7 64 bit computer with the Conexant HD sound card and driver Conexant HD even though I only tested it on my own computer.

    My problem:

    New Dell Inspiron 7520, Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit, Conexant SmartAudio HD sound card with the last driver Conexant Web Dell Drivers site. Stereo mix would not appear in Control Panel > Sound > recording even tab after a right-click empty space and selecting display disabled and show disconnected devices.

    Solution:

    Make sure that you install the Conexant HD SmartAudio driver. You should see it under the sound, video and game controllers in Device Manager. With the Conexant driver already installed and the key work is to find the exact location of the driver file. It can vary from one computer to another and also be called something else. Mine is called chdrt.inf and it was located in: C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository\chdrt.inf_amd64_neutral_fa34defac299c440

    If you don't know where your .inf file, you could do a search for windows for text in files of the string: EpSettings\StereoMixEnable. It will most likely be a file with a .inf extension and located in a subfolder of the System32 folder.

    Right-click on the name of the .inf file and select 'Open with' then choose Notepad. Press Ctrl + F and search for StereoMix to find three lines:

    ; HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,enable,1,01

    ; HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,MixAssocSeq,1,E0,E0

    ; HKR,%EPattributePath%\EpSettings\StereoMixEnable,MuteGainSettings,1,00,00

    Delete the semicolon-->; and save the file. However, Windows doesn't allow you to save the .inf file unless you change the permissions of files. It becomes complicated and a little dangerous!

    Basically a right-click on the .inf, then click these buttons/tabs... Properties > Security > advanced > owner. The current owner should be TrustedInstaller. Change this account on your computer that has administrator rights, and you can connect as long as. To do this, click on change and in the "change in ownership to:" field there an entry should be there as: Administrators (name\Administrators of your computer) to select that then Ok and apply and Ok to close the dialog boxes.

    Now right-click on the .inf again file: properties > Security > Edit > select "Everyone" in the "Group or user names" > check the corresponding box to 'Write' in the 'Permissions for everyone' section > press Apply and OK your way to close all the dialog boxes. Now you can save the .inf file, you remove the semicolons of!

    This step is VERY important. You must change the return of the permissions to the way they were. Right-click on the .inf right and as before changing the write permission by deselecting the checkbox for 'Writing', and then change the property of the .inf file back to TrustedInstaller. This time you'll owner > Edit > other users or groups and type NT service TrustedInstaller in the box and press on check the names, then Ok and apply your way out dialog boxes.

    Now finally, re - install the driver: here I had problems with the driver not being recognized and maybe it's because Windows 7 64 bit has said it is not digitally signed so here's what I did: Start Menu > right click on command prompt > run as administrator > type this command and press on... Enter bcdedit/set nointegritychecks WE.

    To install the driver: Device Manager > sound, video and game controllers > right click on HD SmartAudio Conexant > update driver software > Browse my computer for driver software > let me pick from a list... > Have Disk > Browse > now, here, you have to find the location of the .inf file that you just edited, in my case, I stuck in the path to the folder and press on enter then select the chrdt.inf file and click OK. When it was installed I went back to the command-line as before and run the command: bcdedit/set nointegritychecks OFF

    Now, I rebooted the computer and this time stereo Mix appear in Control Panel > sound > recording after right click tab empty space and selecting display disabled and show disconnected devices.

  • XPS15 L502x no stereo mix record or soundmapper

    Hi people, I have a brand-new XPS15 with config max... installed my Windows 7 ultimate, installed all the drivers of the resources DVD and now I have a problem that I can not record sound from internal devices. Record from microphone works fine, but the "stereo mix" is silent.

    I checked with my desktop PC also with the Realtek HD audio chip on board, and all parameters were similar. It seems that I have missed... the problem is not on the basis of the software, also the Windows audio recorder does not record the sound played.

    What should I do to get the sound from my internal sources? So far, I know that it is most likely a software problem.

    OK, I found the solution, seems to be symptomatic for Realtek HD Audio

    1.) right mouse click on the speaker through the screen symbol, then chose 'sounds '.

    (2.) it is the 'stereo mix' missing

    3.) right click in the empty box

    4.) enable "see the disabled devices.

    5.) appears the 'stereo mix', a brand says 'off '.

    6.) law of the mouse klick 'enable '.

    7.) REBOOT! IMPORTANT! WITHOUT NOT RESTART NO GOOD!

    Stereo mix 8.) is now active recording device.

    Most of the people think it's plug & play, but in this case, it's magic of Realtec that works this way. But it's easy compared to get the Latitude and other models with their its STM Micro card (requires the pirate ini file)
