Audigy 2 NX Remote Question

I have just purchased a Creative Audigy 2 NX which is the USB model. It comes with a remote, which comes with many creative models, and I was wondering if the buttons which control the audio (play, stop, pause, ff, rw, up, down. left, right, enter) can be used to control the DVDs?

You can!

use their little program to assign a custom program, or, make an rci and key file deffenition yourself.

visit my page at URL and look at rci and key file explanations to see how the files work.

it can be done. I even made an rci and key file to control the game nethack! Their software comes with support for windows media player, windvd, powerdvd (i think?) and winamp. As long as the programs accept keypresses from the keyboard for their input, you can make it work.

have fun!

Or you can just try this free program that we wrote. It's called Intelliremote. It does everything you could ever want to do w/ your Audigy remote.

nomel, that URL didn't work for me. Is there another place we can view your config guide? I did not see anything in the Creative application that allowed control of third party applications..

I am trying to get the Audigy NX remote control to handle various applications, like iTunes, TheaterTek DVD, MyHD HDTV receiver card, and FusionHDTV HDTV receiver card.

To Nomel,

Hello my friend I am glad to see, one clever man, who whish to correct some of the creative non-compliance in driver creation and stupidness of their engineers.
Yes I am talking about Creative Audigy 2 NX, I am very disappoint with this product I will count you in my order some of the things:
1. Audigy 2 nx has to low sound output, but I must say I had creative previous cards like sb16,sb128,live,live5.1 and then Audigy 2nx and this is old creative problem with low output level.
2. Sound is very distorted on high levels and I cant even think to level-up bass because I cant stand sound with high amount of distortions.
3.There is no support for Bass and treble, like we have on other Creative cards, except on some models based on some ess chips,some of sb128 variants.
4.Equalizer support is catastrophic, there is only support for 125,250,500,1k,2k,4k and 8k I can only say 125 and 250 are useless in + mode because of high distortion and I cant control treble over 8k.
5.Eax effects are separate story, you told some of the story but I can only say without manual control and with this amount of distortion, with some of the effects on, its useless, I tried your way to open custom but I didn't succeed.
6.CMSS, without manual control is useless because of high distortion in sound when its on, and we dont have manuall control for this effect.
7.Driver is very bad, its gross and lumpish, I am talking about moronically written, some or whole part of the driver, (rundll32.exe and rest of the ****s, sorry on my language) its very slow, system disturbing, it knows to eat-up system resources, there are cpu hogs on some basic audigy2nx operations, there are sometimes sound cracklings in sound on high i/o and more, many more things.

Can you tell me do you know how can I manipulate manually in registry with some of creative settings, like boosting sound level over the limits of the driver, manually reducing CMMS to the desire levels and everything you can imagine about manual manipulation in sound control.

Best Regards, Lucky

my site is back up...with the new url. I edited the post so they are correct now.



you should easily be able to do that. I was playing nethack (with pretty much every button on the remote...still not enough) to give you an idea of the control

I don't have a guide on the site. I need to find my example config file. But, you should be able to figure out what to do with the info.

Hello Nomel

Any chance of you posting or perhaps providing a link to the RCI that you have designed? As the link from your evicted site does not work.

Thanks
