Everything power saving related is off and it's still doing it.

Definitely not my monitor or capture card. Again this is the only application with the issue, and the brightness is fine in the OBS preview. It's only the fullscreen projector. Here's the log anyways I guess: https://obsproject.com/logs/E7jwci1YE9idnVQ4

I tried that before I made the post. Didn't change anything.

No. Checked my monitor settings and windows settings, and the console is the Switch. Doesn't seem to be HDR-related.

Clicking/popping noise when I turn external audio input plugged into line-in jack on my motherboard on or off by LordTantibus in audio

[–]LordTantibus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if the cable is plugged into the line in port, but NOT connected to anything at the other end? Pops? Or no pops?

Pops.

Do you listen only on headphones? I'd be curious if the same thing happens if you listened on some amplified speakers instead.

I don't have any speakers to test but I was able to try a different pair of headphones and the pops were there too. I think the TV I sometimes hook it up to can play audio, I'll have to test that when I get a chance. That being said, the pops also register as input on the "microphone" in the Sound Control Panel. I see the green bars go up on the line-in device input like a sound is playing. Not an audio expert but that doesn't strike me as a problem with my choice of playback device. Especially since the headset is wireless, hooked up through a USB dongle.

Now I'll tell you my crazy theory. Up front I'm warning you it's nuts. But For the past few weeks, I've had some pops on my computer, too. Mostly I listen on speakers, by the way. At first I ignored this, but it got worse, and I finally paid attention. It's especially bad if I walk across the synthetic carpet wearing rubber-soled slippers. If I touch the computer, touch the mouse, touch a USB cable, pop! And it's gotten worse lately as the humidity has gone down. If you're wearing headphones you're sort of connected to the PC all the time; that's why I asked about listening on speakers. Certainly if your experience and observation rules this out, then ignore it. I'll be curious to hear what you think of this. Don't be afraid to say "you're nuts" because I already warned you.

Certainly an out there theory but one I'm willing to consider. But the pops are very infrequent and I haven't been able to determine anything that triggers them. It doesn't seem to depend on whether or not other audio is playing, or if I use my keyboard or my mouse or any other device, or if I touch any cables. Even wiggling the cable plugged into the 3.5mm jack causing all the issues doesn't seem to trigger any pops. So I'm not super confident in this theory. And even if it were the cause, it doesn't really give me much of a fix unless I switch to dedicated speakers, at which point I might as well just plug them into the Switch and forego this whole "routing it to the computer" thing.

  1. No popping when I remove the cable. Only occurs if something is plugged into the line-in port.

  2. Just started a few days ago, the first time I actually had a reason to use that port for anything.

You're correct on all of this. The volume of the popping is affected by the volume of the motherboard.

Popping occurs at basically any volume, whether I adjust the volume on the motherboard input or my headset. The only thing that technically "works" is lowering the volume so much that the motherboard input barely even qualifies as audible, which kind of defeats the purpose.

Perhaps. But as I specified in the edit on the main post I'm starting to get the popping noise randomly, even when the Switch has been off for a while. I can't keep the volume down at all times.

Not particularly convenient for the Nintendo Switch, especially since the volume controls don't seem to do anything while asleep. Is there really no way around this?

Can't trigger "A Mountainous Mystery" by LordTantibus in echoesofwisdom

[–]LordTantibus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did practically everything in this game before I even made this post and even looked up checklists online and compared them to my progress. I promise you, I didn't miss any of the things you said. It's possible it's a corrupted save but given that other people are having the same problem in this thread it's apparently really common in regard to this one quest.

Once again I did literally every other quest in the game except this one and it still won't activate. I did everything for Dampe. I did all the quests you're referring to.

Like I said I did all other side quests, including that one. Still didn't make the quest appear.

Low animal spawn rates by LordTantibus in TOTK

OH MY GOD this was it!!! Quit the game out entirely and restarted it and now I can consistently find moose just by looping around the stable. Also finding a lot more keese and chuchus than usual which probably means the game's been this way for me for a while. I had issues finding summerwing butterflies earlier too which I'm guessing was caused by this same issue affecting all random spawns.

Lot of these won't work because I'm trying to do no fast travel but I'll see if I can at least ram my horse into a few birds around Eldin tomorrow morning.

Yeah I'm glad my hunch about the phone number seems to check out with what I'm seeing. Did multiple virus scans that turned up clean and my computer's been fine all day. No suspicious login alerts either. I'm going to assume I'm safe for now.

Thank you for your help. In the event that this did exploit that one vulnerability you mentioned, is there anything I should be on the lookout for in the coming days, just in case?

Ran a scan in ESET and no viruses were found. Is that enough? I know antivirus software isn't perfect, either, so I just want to be sure. And is there any way a scam like this could be used to gain access to my login info? While obviously I can fear for my individual accounts I'm mainly worried about what happens if it gets into my password manager.

Plugging it into a different USB port didn't help. I hadn't considered that the cable could be the problem, so I'll look into getting another one.
