Creative Audigy I doesn't work?!


10 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

Hi, I have an Audigy I from Creative.

It's an AC3 Audio (not AC97).

 

I followed the tutorial about Sound (Fixing the Audio).

 

I have modified the ICH5 AC97, and reload the kext.

 

I have just an error about the signature of device. And the sound doesn't work.

 

Why?

Can you help me about this problem?

 

 

Thanks in advance, and sorry for my "english".

The audigy does not use that kext, that kext loads if you have an onboard inter ICH5.

AC3 specifies a digital sound format, AC97 specifies a hardware codec. Both are completely different standards.

there are basically three types of sound devices which are reported to work with the generic drivers:

 

1. AC97 (onboard or on AMR riser cards)

2. HDA (onboard)

3. USB

This is what IOReg -l poops out for my audio:

 

    |    |  |      +-o AppleMLANAudioDevice  <class AppleMLANAudioDevice, re$

    |    |  |      |  {

    |    |  |      |    "IOMatchCategory" = "AppleFireWireAudio"

    |    |  |      |    "IOClass" = "AppleMLANAudioDevice"

    |    |  |      |    "IOProviderClass" = "IOFireWireLocalNode"

    |    |  |      |    "CFBundleIdentifier" = "com.apple.driver.AppleMLANA$

    |    |  |      |    "GUID" = 628921456709185

    |    |  |      |    "IOProbeScore" = 0

 

 

 

All it detects is my firewire =P
