No Stereo Mix recording option on E1505 with Sigmatel Audio?

Any way to get this working so that I can record streaming music etc?

 

anybody have any ideas? I have googled and tried some things ive seen but none have worked so far

 

I've always highjacked streams with 'acoustica' on pc or 'music highjack' on mac. Just install one of these ripping stream apps and you'll be ready to go!

 

thanks xuor i will try that. it still bothers me though that on every laptop i have owned i have had stereo mix option and for some reason everyone is having problems with Sigmatel and stereo mix.

 

i spoke to Dell and they said its a KNOWN problem and will fixed with a patch by the end of March

 

It's July, and still no new Vista drivers since January.

I doubt the CSR was truthful about Dell planning to fix this "known problem". The prevailing theory is that stereo mix recording is disabled because the RIAA wanted it that way.

Thanks for not letting me record proper videos with FRAPS, Dell.

 

I've bought a Dell Inspiron notebook E1705 Vista with sigmatel sound, and I'm not happy with it. The problem is the sound properties shows no Line in, no Mix Studio therefore I could not do any recording or playing music online at all. Does anyone have any idea to fix the problem?

I am really upset when I've paid a lot of money for this poor performed notebook; and I was stunned when I saw many Dell customers suffered the same pain about Dell-Sigmatel issue for a long time (at least since 2005) for both Win XP and Vista.

Obviously Dell knew about the problem but and look like they don't care; definitely they are not going to fix it. It is so strange to see big company like Dell selling not working product to consumers without any apology or promise to fix the problem. Does anyone know anybody who engages in a Class Action Law Suit about this issue? Please let me know. I do want to join it.
