Re: MD: sound blaster live value
Hi! Does the sound blaster live value have a optical digital out? No, but you can make one! :) A 220ohm resistor, red diode and a piece of cd-in cable is needed. you put the resistor between the diode and spdif-in's GND and voilla! It works perfectly for me! The diode has to be with a wavelenght of about 660nm (bright, pure red). Well, just look at the minidisc.org page, the article is "Super cheap TOSLINK transmitter". I don't take the responsibility...

There's this show I listen to sometimes that takes calls on netmeeting, and I'd like to be able to record it, and be able to participate in it. Hmm, sounds like it's going to be complicated: Although I don't know NetMeeting, I believe it requires your part of the communication to be recorded to the computer. To do this, you have to set the recording setting from "what you hear" to "microphone" or you will be recording your voice plus the continuing show and send it to them, which is probably not what you want to do... Another problem could arise because you would then be recording to two applications at the same time (your own recording plus the NetMeeting recording). I have not tried it, but the SBLive might not be able to do this... Any way to do it? If I bought a minidisc recorder, would that help any? Well, you could record to minidisc :-) I was thinking that thing mentioned on the list about the idea of playing a recording into a remote would be good, to have it d things when I want to, how does it work? When you play it, how does the minidisc recorder know what to do with the other devices at the time? Like, if I recorded various shows from satellite or something, would I be able to have the computer or other source turn on and turn down the program during the commercial break and come back on when it's done, possibly putting music in between, or just pausing the minidisc so I can have enough space to record without having to do anything with it? Hmm, can't comment on this... Bye, Hannes - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MD: sound blaster live value
Oh, if I used what you hear, the show would hear me in an echoed format? That's the trouble there, if I switch it to microphone, then I don't get the other person's side recorded with it, and if two recording events at a time can't work, then it won't work either. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Also, about the sblive value, can it be made to allow recording from the mike and wave output at the same time, so they mix in one file? Or can it record more than one thing, so I can record a netcast and talk on it at the same time without missing any of it? You cannot record from several sources at one time. However, there is a setting called "what you hear" for recording, which will record anything you can hear over the speakers. So it is possible to enable both wave playback and the mike for playing, and then recording it.

(short answer) The later (MP3+, X-Gamer, 1024 depending on region) versions have a non-standard electrical digital out (which could be converted to optical), or you can buy a Hoontech bracket that adds optical ports http://www.hoontech.com ) for around $20. I believe Creative offered an official optical I/O upgrade at some point as well, at a much higher price than the Hoontech one. -- Simon - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
