I just got osx installed and any videos I play seem to be playing at the speed of light. Well not really more like about 2 times what they should be doing or maybe 4 hard to tell. Running blacknights 10.4 kernel and have a Pheonom X2 BE 550 Unlocked to a Pheonom X4 B50. at 3.1 mhz. I had a ma-ga790xt-udp4 but now i have a GA-MA-790XTA-UD4 but the problem still exsists. Oh on a side not got not the sound working. Go dual monitors working but stuck in 32bit mode. Not exactly sure how to force 64 bit mode. But from what i have read if i do i will lose dual monitors. used the 3 kext method to get the dual monitors going. I installed the latest voodoohda but still no joy on the sound. Any help in these area's would be great. I did install the ec patch for video. well i copied the boot file and now my boot shows i got ec but i dont belive it lol. but the cards read right ATI 4850 HD. Any help would be kindly looked upon

Seems my video speed problem is gone now. so now trying to figure out why i still have no sound. I hear the click when it boots up like my laptop does. that has sound but when i look in the profiler no sound. the speed problem might of been the fast my motherboard was going bad and failed on the ud4p. now that im on ud4 it is gone.

There's no use in booting in 64-bit mode on AMD processors, because currently there aren't any kernels patched for AMD, which would allow to run 32-bit applications in 64-bit mode.
When it comes to sound - you won't see anything in "Audio (built-in)" when using VoodooHDA, even if sound works. If you hear the "click" during boot, go to System Preferences and check if the right output is selected.

Gone Linux.

I went there and all i see is teh didgital one. and a spid err (spelling) on the windows one atm. but i know on the didgital one i would get no sound in windows. ill try again on my lunch break and reinstall the 262 voodoo hda i found a site with pkgs that do the install no kext helper when i try to use that. i always got to force quit it. oh. on a side not now with the next motherboard. osx dont shut down right i get the blue screen with the swirling circle and i have to reboot it manually. some times once in a blue moon it will reboot itself. i know there well i think there is a fix from that some place but ive not found it yet.

Ok Here it is. i used http://www.nawcom.com/osx86/files/10...dooHDA/0.2.62/ ive tried the 61 too. here are the only things i see in sound. Digital-out (hdmi) Headphones (green front) Spdif-out (orange rear) & Spdif-out(cd) those are the only things i see and not seeing a way to select one. Although since this i my first mac well hack. HDA might be seenig my front speakers only and since i never connected the wires inside the case its playing to something not connected. Any way to get it to play to the back green one instead?

Ok this missing componets issue seems to be the fact i have a ATI Radeon 4850 Video Card. I been looking but not found a solution for this yet. I have teh ACL889 Chipset for sound. If anyone has the solution i would be soooo thankful.

Upon further searching I found a possible solution for this problem. It seems my problem is my ATI 4850 HD has a HDMI also causing the problem with sounds and that mod of the voodooHDA.kext is needed to fix this. But I seem to be failing at putting a skip in the kext. Ill attach what ive learned from another forum here.
Here are my values im working with

1002:aa30 Unknown. (im assuming this is the HDMI from my ATI Video card)

Solution

Tried the Codec analysis, but the codec seems to be PERFECT, its the same dump as with the GTS8600 card. By now Im going crazy. A simple add Voodoohda kext is becoming a nightmare. Sound panel only sees Digital Out 1 -4 on output and some Inputs (correct pins).

Downloaded voodoohda SOURCE and .... what the hell do i do know????

I studied the code for 1 month, download [COLOR=#3673A3 ! important][COLOR=#3673A3 ! important]Intel[/color][/color] HDA specifications, READ ALL OF IT (really) and started to understand something.

I cannt presume I understand it completely but from the verbose boot you can see 2 sets of codecs.
These are the NVidia Codec with 4 streams (digital out 1 - 4) and the Realtek codec #2 (the usual codec).

Tried several ideas in the [COLOR=#3673A3 ! important][COLOR=#3673A3 ! important]source [COLOR=#3673A3 ! important]code[/color][/color][/color]
, mostly PANIC or nothing.

FINALLY after a month I try getting the NVidia Controller out, change the source to skip such controller and SOUND SOUND SOUND !!!!!! Felt great to be able to solve a dumb problem. It just took a MONTH and NO SLEEP.

Since I havent read of anybody with a similar problem I guess its very rare. In any case, I modded the original VoodooHDA source to have a SKIP VendorID/DeviceID of a CONTROLLER paramenter in the info.plist of the codec. (VoodooHDAVidSkip and VoodooHDADivSkip)

I hope this helps somebody. Im going to try to get another [COLOR=#3673A3 ! important][COLOR=#3673A3 ! important]NVidia [COLOR=#3673A3 ! important]Video [/color][COLOR=#3673A3 ! important]card[/color][/color][/color] with HDMI and see what happens.

For the curious ones, in the VoodooHDA:robe method you need to compare the vendorID and deviceID and close the connection and return NULL.

....... in VoodooHDADevice:robe ........

vendorId = mPciNub->configRead16(kIOPCIConfigVendorID);
deviceId = mPciNub->configRead16(kIOPCIConfigDeviceID);
mDeviceId = (deviceId << 16) | vendorId;

if (vendorId==mHDAVidSkip && deviceId==mHDADidSkip) {
errorMsg ("Skipping Controller. Vendor ID: %04x, device ID: %04x\n", vendorId, deviceId);
mPciNub->close(this); return NULL; };
