hermes_vb Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I have my USB DAC connected to my Win7 HTPC running foobar in DS mode. Every song skips at the end. It's a weird thing. When the track is about to finish (about 5 left) its skips and goes back a few seconds and does it again. It's almost like a broken record for any of you who remember those days. I've tried playing with the buffer but no luck. Does anybody have an idea of what's going on? PS I have also check system latency with a program called DPC Latency checker and says it should be able to handle streaming with no problem. Link to comment
PeterSt Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I don't recognize the problem, but do know that dBPoweramp (ripping) allows for having meta data and/or embedded Coverart at the end of the track. I can't imagine that Foobar can't handle this, but then I can imagine that this DS part is too much Windows to be really in control of it, and it is the Windows Direct Sound module which fails here (well, it's really dBPowerAmp doing odd things). If it is that at all ...

Audio_ELF Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Does it do this with all files or just some? What file format do you use? Eloise Eloise --- ...in my opinion / experience... While I agree "Everything may matter" working out what actually affects the sound is a trickier thing. And I agree "Trust your ears" but equally don't allow them to fool you - trust them with a bit of skepticism. keep your mind open... But mind your brain doesn't fall out. Link to comment
hermes_vb Posted December 4, 2012 Author Share Posted December 4, 2012 I rip to WAV using EAC then Convert to FLAC and AAC (For home and mobile respectively) but it does it with all formats. Link to comment
Audio_ELF Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Also what DAC? Does it use drivers or Window's own driver? Eloise Eloise --- ...in my opinion / experience...

hermes_vb Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 Also what DAC? Does it use drivers or Window's own driver? Eloise Peachtree Audio Nova is my DAC/Integrated Amp. I finally made it work with WASAPI V3.0 Plugin. Link to comment
