Directsound output error (windows 10)

ampshout · 11th July 2015, 14:01

Hi guys

every few hours winamp gives an error about directsound output and then it stops playing till a restart.

I'm on the latest beta release of Windows 10 and using the latest last release of Winamp.

Is it a know issue? if not let me know what would be useful to submit for troubleshooting further.

Thanks.

Update to 10166; As earlier builds had some problems on DirectX libraries....If you are on 10166 and still experiencing the issue then your DirectX install is corrupt; it would be worthwhile to download the ISO from Microsoft and then 'reinstall' with that ISO

already on 10166. I ran the diagnostic for DirectX - comes up with no errors. I'm not willing to re-install my entire OS for one application. are there any debug logs to look at in Winamp? thanks.

Hi ampshout,

Please post a zipped copy of your Winamp configuration report (http://koopa.meggamusic.co.uk/infotool/).
