I was wondering if anyone else hears what I hear, ... that is, after playing MP3s after approximately an hour a slight "flutter" will begin, and it gets worse though the next hour, to a point where the sound is almost terrible. But then, all I have to do is stop and restart (the track, not MC9), and it will be fine for another hour.
It seems to happen only for having configured the output for 'directsound' ... if I configure it instead for 'ASIO', it will not occur.
