Anyone has a MR816 working on a X99?
On my old Asus 7P55 the MR816 works fine.
On my new X99 not. No sound
Win 8.1
Intel 5820 and X99-A and 16Gb DDR4 ram
Texas instruments firewire card ( works fine on the old computer)
Tried the legacy drivers…nothing . No signal in the MR editor.
When putting the buffers to large with ysfwutility i get signal in the MR editor. But only crackles as audio ( with the Texas instrument IEEE 1390 OHCI drivers.
After two weeks of trouble shooting ( reading a lot and trying a lot ) im out of options.
Even installed Win 7 back on the new machine. But nothing.
It’s looks like an issue between the X99 and the firewire card.
Is the card PCI or PCIe? If it’s a bridged PCI this could be an issue. I had to swap TI FW cards once to the newer PCIe standard once after on OS reinstallation, not that I know why…
I had exactly the same problem. The was the fierce card. I originally had an older Siig card with a ti chipset and got no audio. Changed to a newer Siig fw800/400 card with a newer ti chipset and it solved the problem instantly.
The “old” one is here: DP FireWire 2-Port PCIe - PCIe - FireWire 400 - FireWire - IT PRODUCTS
It uses a TI chipset XIO2200AZGW
The “new” one is here: FireWire 800 3-Port PCIe - PCIe - FireWire 800 - FireWire - IT PRODUCTS
It also uses a TI chipset, but it is different: TI XIO2213
So if you plan to use firewire on an X99 mobo, the new one above does appear to work.
I saw a post from you saying that you managed to get the MR816 working on a X99 motherboard using a SIIG 3-Port FireWire 800 PCIe Card Model NN-E38012-S3 firewire card. Is it still working for you and does it work as it should?
Thanks,
