ive already logged a bug on launchpad but it hasent been fixed yet. Basically i cant use a program called gnomad2 to access my creative zen 30 GB media player. I was able to do this under 9.10.
View 9 RepliesI installed gnomad2 on my ubuntu 10.10 system but it won't mount my Creative Zen X-Fi. Ubuntu itself recognizes it but Gnomad2 doesn't. The error message is this...

I'm using ubuntu karmic 9.10. I used to transfer songs to/from my Creative Zen Micro firmware 1.11.01) using gnomad2 2.9.4 with no problem at all. Suddenly it stopped working. Gnomad2 seems to detect the zen micro but it hangs when "retrieving metadata from jukebox". The zen micro doesn't appear in "places" menu but Inot sure whether this is an issue...when I enter lsusb in a terminal it getsBus 001 Device 004: ID 041e:411e Creative Technology, Ltd Zen Micro
View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently installed Debian Squeeze on my desktop, replacing an Ubuntu 9.04 variant (CrunchBang). Since then, I've been unable to use gnomad2 to scan my 30GB Creative Zen Touch. Here is the relevant portion of /var/log/messages:

I just purchased an Ibiza Rhapsody the other day, and installed Gnomad2 to transfer my library of mp3's to it. Once the transfer finished, only about half the number of songs showed up on the Ibiza as there were songs I was transferring over. All of them are proper mp3 files. Also, none of the files that transferred over can be played by the Ibiza. Sometimes it pops up an error message that it can not play the audio, but mostly it sits on the song and does not play. It reads the title and artist out of the MP3, but I guess it doesn't get the real data, considering the lack of playing, coupled with the fact that it does not show a length/timeleft for the song when I go to play it. In adddition, other mp3 players I've used come up in the filesystem, mount, etc, and you can browse it, directly paste in mp3's, etc (Makes life much easier). With this, it does not show up on the desktop like the others do, and I do not see it in the filesystem whatsoever. Upon plugging in, Ubuntu does realize something is happening, but thinks it is a camera and tries to import pictures. It's weird, because apparantly Gnomad picked it up (considering it transferred some files).

The Reason I ask it that I have a Laptop with a 500GB Hard drive, which has windows installed on it Obviously I cannot create a new Partition on this drive to do a separate install. 30GB is just to small for what I want to do on Ubuntu, I know I can access the hard drive using /host/* but that is hassle that I do not want.

I recently got a Creative Zen Mosaic EZ100 MP3 player, however when I dock it to my computer and try to install it by clicking the 'set-up.exe' file in the Starter Pack folder, Archive manager gives me this message/Command Line output:

I installed ubuntu 9.10 last week and it is my ambition to completely switch to this platform at some point. However, I am experiencing some difficulties with the different music players at hand. I currently try to use exaile as my main player. But I can't make it connect to my mp3 player. My player is a Creative Zen X-fi 8GB. Can anyone guide me through the process of making exaile compatible with my zen? As far as I can read from different posts, it should be possible... Another question of mine is the following. Is it possible to edit the artist names in the music library. My problem is that exaile has one entry with the artist name Band of Horses and another with the artist name Band Of Horses. I would like to have these entries as only one entry, but I don't know how to edit the one or the other. Right-clicking doesn't lead to anything...

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Creative Xi-Fi sound card. There is a driver installed currently, but unless my sound is at 100%, everything sounds distorted.

I have a creative zen mozaic that I'm trying to get working on ubuntu 10.10. I didn't get it to work on 10.04 but I didn't really try that hard. I conenct the player. It shows up as a disk and I copy over files but they wont be recognized by the player. It say's it's nothing there. If you open it in windows they will show and if you just remve them and copy them back in in windows the player will recognize them. How do I get this to work with ubuntu? This is the only reason to keep windows for me atm.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm new to Ubuntu, but have some experience with *NIX (specifically Red Hat and AIX.) I'm not getting any bass out of my 4.1 Logitech THX setup. The surround speakers are operating fine. I know that the bass unit itself is working because I was using it with windows on this computer before I made the switch to Ubuntu. If I run a speaker test from either the sound preferences or the terminal, the speakers work but the bass does not. I ran this command from a terminal to help with the diagnostic effort, but I'm not entirely sure what I'm looking at:

Just a quick how-to, to get mic working with Creative Labs SB X-Fi on Ubuntu 10.10 64bit. This is a result of my conversation with a 'friend' I met on #ubuntu on irc.freenode.net, To begin, this is the card we are talking about:
Code:
$lspci | grep audio
05:01.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB X-Fi
This card uses "snd-ctxfi" module for the audio output.
And this is how he got the mic to work using alsamixer. I have seen many thread/posts on the internet about this issue.
I own a creative zen and have used it quite well with banshee over the last few years,
I recently upgraded to ubuntu netbook remix 10.10 with banshee 1.8.1 and everytime I connect the player to banshee the Zen freezes (and yes I mean EVERY time)
Thought it might be a Zen problem so ran recovery tool and reinstalled the latest firmware
tried getting Gnomad2 from older versions and tried to get it to work with no success
Read quite a few forums and tried the 1) Plug in Zen 2) Unmount 3) Open Banshee 4) Sync method however during the syncing stage it still freezes..
I cant connect creative zen mp3 player, banshee said htp error. or unable to mount, a few times it has connected and showed itself but wouldnt sync music.had even less joy with clementine.is only some media players compatable?

The sound card works just fine when I plug my headphones into the analog stereo output in the back. I'm not trying to do anything fancy with it right now like digital optical out or anything, just trying to get the one analog output on the front panel to work so I can plug my headphones in up front and leave the speakers plugged in the back.

I've tried for some time now to get my Zen 16GB working properly with Ubuntu 10.04. I've tried Rhythmbox and this works for mp3s but album art is not transferring. I have latest 0.13 Rhythmbox and now at leat the mp3's go in directories under Music, but the .alb file is put a root and not ar is displayed.
I have tried gnomad2 and the latest (2.9.4?) crashes with 10.04 when reading the Zen. I can't drag and drop in nautilus and the it is connected as gphoto and the tags are not copied over. So, for all you Zen users.. how are you trandfering mp3's (with album art!) over to your Zen's?
I own an external usb soundcard: Creative Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1. After some tweaking around Multimedia Settings, (K)Ubuntu 9.10 successfully detected the card. I can now use it.
However, setting the sound level in KMixer does not work at all - KMixer now only contains a Microphone channel. Using hotkeys, I can still turn volume from 0 to 100%, but that has no effect on the volume produced by the soundcard. The sound card comes with a sound joggle, but turning it left or right has no effect whatsoever on the volume level.
Is there a way to solve either of these issues? p.s. Also, the card came with a Windows app and driver cd.
my Computer Sci friend cannot even fix this, so here goes... I need some kind of mtp or gnomad2 to let my creative zen x-fi connect with my linux so I can listen to mp3s in peace. But, if I try to use software manager, nothing downloads. It simply says archive manager as reason for failed download. I've tried deleting and re-installing the software centre. I've tried downloading what I need online. But neither have done anything.
