MC 29 routinely freezes when playing new files

<< < (3/3)

Tango-DJ:
I just did that and the problem persists. Attached is a log report, in case it helps diagnosing. After resetting the log, I started playing tracks and the second or third track I played ("Amarga sospecha") triggered a 5–10 second freeze.

Tango-DJ:
After spending +30 minutes searching and browsing this forum, I came across several similar reports. Example:


--- Quote ---There is one small issue that existed long before V30 that you might want to investigate. Occasionally, maybe once out of 10 times, when double clicking to play an MP3, MC stalls for about 3 seconds saying it is "buffering". I know this is not caused by my hard drive spinning up because a minute earlier a different MP3 on the same drive played without a buffering delay.

This is exactly what I'm experiencing: indeed, this user's "maybe once out of 10 times" corresponds to my original observation that "This happens one out of ~10 times".

Tango-DJ:
I appreciate the feedback, but as I noted above, Google Drive has been ruled out as the culprit given that the problem persists after I uninstalled the app and restarted the computer. Moreover, this is an issue that has been reported by other users who do not use Google Drive. At this point, Google Drive has become a red herring, that is preventing us from identifying the real cause of this issue.

bob:
The log has a log of these:

0005238: 6166228992: Playback: CCoreAudioPlugin::CoreAudioPlayCallback: Error check failed!, outOutputData=600003a4fac0, outOutputData->mNumberBuffers=1, m_aryStreamChannels.GetSize()=0

Seems to indicate an issue with core audio.
What's the output device?
Are the device options set to exclusive or not?
