here at wkdu.org our minds are blown trying to figure out what our problem is, we are using a dell optiplex gx1 with a soundblaster live card. we are getting a nasty hum on the line in. the thing is we plug a cd player directly into the soundcard the hum goes away and when we plug the line in into anything else there is no hum, so the question i ask where is the hum coming from? we are completely boggled. we are using the latest version of iceccast along with darkice.7.....if this wasnt enough i have a a lit paper due tomm that has made my head hurt on top of this...... thanx in advance for any help -jim --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

I had a weird problem with ALSA and hum on my SB Live. I finally figured out I had to unmute the last emu10k1 channel in alsamixer. Try muting/unmuting some of them if you are indeed using ALSA.

We at WRUR (wrur.org) have a really long run from the front of the studio to the room with the servers, and there's a hum. -samuel <p>--- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.
