Just as a sidenote soundproof, I'm also not getting any sound from the DVD player in the mac mini. Only from iTunes, and this via "tricking" the Beolab5's. Having the BS9000 on and cutting in via the digital input to switch over.

Yes soundproof, that's exacly how I did it. But they don't turn on. I had the mini playing, bs9000 shut off, the beolab5's where shut of, and when I removed the sync cable from the beolabs they automatically turned on! Playing the signal from the mac mini. So the problem seems to be the sync cable? They seem to protect themselves once this

It's working fine this way, but what if I wanted to use it without the BS9000? It won't work...

Yes, that's how I have it set up, but I understand I should use the sync cable, but they remain shut off when I connect it, they don't even turn on (beolab 5) I will try your way, having them in option 0? the standard option? Andreas

Hey guys, could anyone please assist me... I have my Beolab 5's connected to the mac mini via a toslink-> coaxial converter, I have the sync cable connected between the speakers, I also have the powerlink cables and the coaxial digital cables connected. When I connect the sync cable the speakers become unresponsive... I can't even set the

[quote user="soundproof"] Ah, those you can only move with soundcards that allow it, or when you have set the sound output to variable. Digital OUT is at a fixed (maximum) level, and then the sliders are locked. If you're in a playback mode that allows control of the sound level from the Mac, then you will see these lower, for instance

I meant the two sliders on the Audi Midi page, the ones under frequency and bitrate.

At this point I can't adjust the two levers called "1" and "2" Should I be able too? I don't have anything connected to the toslink, since I don't have the converter yet.

Just saw it myself... I had the left side bar: Poperties for: I had put to "input". I now have the controls.

At the Midi control panel mine says, "output not supported", I pretty much have a mirrored version of your screen.... What's that about?
