Title: Stuttering Playback
Post by: richard.e.morton on January 03, 2006, 04:08:24 pm
Hi,

I have been using MC10 for about 2 years now I think. I have been encoding to ogg vorbis (using FreeRIP - any comments on the pro's and con's of various Rippers are welcome). I started at 128kbps but I could hear the difference, when I got to 192, I couldn't hear differences anymore, but to be safe I upped it to 256 avg...

Anyway, running MC10 on a Mini-ITX 600mhz fanless machine I am getting stuttering, lots of them at times. This is a new build of machine and I wasn't getting before.

I have looked into the PCI Latency but they are set sensibly (defaults look ok, nothing higher than 32).

what am I doing wrong?

Would MC11 fix the playback issues.

Also, I have a library of approx 15k 256k ogg vorbis tracks. The find-as-you-type is tooooo slow, anyway to turn it off (everywhere - the search bar behaves how I like on the start page).


Help Please!

Thanks in advance

Richard
