"soundblaster mp3" line-in not working with spdif out
For some reason, I can't use the analog line input while i'm using the spdif
output. Anyone know if this can be done with this unit? If so, what am I doing wrong? -- Mark remove "remove" and "spam" to reply |

spdif output. Anyone know if this can be done with this unit? If so, what am I doing wrong? -- Mark remove "remove" and "spam" to reply You have a digital out signal going to an analogue input. No. I meant that the soundblaster unit, which is providing a digital output to the audio system, appears to be unable to perform the a to d conversion necessary to take an analog input into the soundblaster "line input" jack and output it to the audio system. I can't imagine they'd do this, so I suspect I'm doing something wrong. Interestingly, the software that runs the analog device (a D-Link USB FM radio) providing the input to the soundblaster unit comes with its own software, of course. And the level meters on the software are showing that the soundblaster input is indeed working. If I unplug the input to the soundblaster, the level meters go to zero. Also, if I use the analog output of the soundblaster, the USB radio plays through the speakers. The problem is getting the USB radio to work WITH the digital output. I've played with the volume controls and inputs, etc, but to no avail. |

I don't know about yours, but my SBI 128 is configurable via software. The
line input jack can be configured as an SPDIF output instead. The should have used the mic input instead. Mark Z. -- Please reply only to Group. I regret this is necessary.

I've played with the volume controls and inputs, etc, but to no avail. In my Creative Live Drive IR, Surround Mixer, there is a small red + right above the Master Volume slider. When I click it, it brings up a box to select "Digital Output Only". My speakers are analog, and when I check that setting box, it kills my speakers. I don't have any way of checking my digital output, but I think it probably is coming out the digital and optical outputs. As far as the two separate inputs, the mixer should be able to handle both inputs, if selected and not muted in the mixer. I have two CD-Rom drives and one plays via digital input and one plays via analog input, and both of them can play at the same time, and be heard in the speakers. See if your mixer has similar settings that you can check to make everything come out the digital ports. Good luck. -- Art Jackson W4TOY Owensboro, KY USA Life is God's open book test.
