Sound problem with Tv-tuner card

Gremmie · Mar 22, 2003, 05:45 PM

I just bought an MSI TVanywhere TV card. When I try to watch TV with it, I hear a thumping type noise every second or few seconds. This is with a SoundBlaster Audigy MP3 card. When I take out the Audigy and plug the TV tuner into the onboard audio, it sounds fine. I have an Epox 8KHA+ running WinXP Pro SP1 if this info is needed.

Is there a microphone connected the the Audigy by any chance?

I don't have a remote connected. I have the microphone muted in the sound options.

Could I enable my Onboard audio and have the TV tuner play through that at the same time having the audigy still installed? Would this cause a conflict, or would it not matter?

Thump in audio every second or 2???

Try disabling AUTO INSERT NOTIFICATION on your CDROM drives.

If you have CDAUDIO cables connected you could also try removing them.

You should be able to have onboard and audigy running at the same time. I have used two sound cards SBLIVE and PnP SB16 ISA. The key is that both devices MUST be PnP to avoid conflicts.
The biggest problem you face is where to connect the speakers? Audigy is likely. and how to get audio from the onboard to the audigy?

I got an SBLive! card and the thumping is evident after I turn off the TV. It's something with the Line In I believe, because when I turn off Line in; the thumping is gone. I guess you have to turn down Line In volume to 90% or 85% to omit the noise.
