Since I upgraded my PC and laptop with the .87 update I have about a 2 second delay to the audio. I had this once before and had to completely uninstall and reinstall, I couldn't even do a re cover the library as the delay seemed to be associated with that. At the time I didn't really have much of a library but now have an extensive one and mucho DSP settinga so don't want to do that again really.

Anyone else get this problem?

what do you mean a delay? Between zones when linked or between the audio with viedo playback. I have had no porblem with the latter. Haven't tested zone sync recently though, if this is what you are talking about. Sorry.

Just for information, you probably restored the last library backup (which would be a .87 backup. You would need to restore a  backup prior to the problem. JRiver will store a bunch of them. I would really recommend that you find where these are stored and make an external archive. The library backup for a large collection is really just a very small zip file.

Sorry I meant delay between the audio and video playing over the WDM for browser windows or video played back outside of MC.

Is there a way I can reinstall only the WDM driver?

I hope the WDM niggles get sorted out soon ,it's the only real reason I bought MC and  it's driven me nuts ever since Brilliant idea and as far as i can tell the only one on the market really

If it seems bonded to the library it may be a settings issue.  I assume you went back through and checked your audio output buffers, prebuffering, etc.?

I'm not seeing any WDM issues here on two different machines on .87

I've sort of got to the bottom of this. It seems to be the JRSS downmixing to 2 channel in 7.1 container.

If I go through and recreate my entire set up step by step al is fine until I switch that on. I can set it to 8 or 10 channels fine but as soon as I try the downmix I get the delay. This is independant of the output device selected as well.

I need to downmix to two channels otherwise multi channel audio files seem to come out of my active crossover channels randomly

For the time being I am using stereo only files.

That's very odd.  One diagnostic you can try: try doing the downmix manuallu in parametric equalizer and see if that fixes it.  If it does, then there may be a bug in JRSS.
