winamp 3 playback corruption...

doctorcilantro · 25th August 2003, 13:07

Hello,

Been a longtime winamp user and now I have run into a problem I can't fix. Tried quite a few things, uninstalled some software, not a lot on the pc, not a ton of games. After rebuilding my system and installing winamp 3 again, I have noticed audio corruption during playback. As soon as I minimize my playlist editor to the desktop, the sound just starts burping and crackling. I tried Media Jukebox 8 and it works fine. I have tried different audio drivers, buffers, etc. DVD audio sounds just fine. It's really a shame cause I like winamp's playlist; it's simple and good for me (when it's working). Anyone have any ideas, I'd appreciate it.

Jon

"burping and crackling" ??

Perhaps skipping? Try applying the official update patch, as I recommended to bigsvenie in this thread, which worked in his case and may also in yours. Let me know how it goes.

Thanks Nunzio! I am at work right now so I'll give it a whirl tonight. It's strange, beacause winamp seems to work with miniml pops until I minimize to the desktop where it just becomes totally un-listenable

Thanks again for your guidance.

I tried the patch but no luck. I uninstalled a lot of software, service pack 4, IE sp1, and still no luck. I do have.....DX9...which release? I forget. hmmmmm....

Sandra? Are you referring to SiSoft Sandra?

Anyway, could be, but also read JonnyMac's response to SpidahX in this thread, just in case you need to update/replace your sound drivers.
