Title: ASIO output - problem
Post by: Laozi on May 01, 2013, 03:27:11 am

Hi there! J River is a really great player, I would love to use it, but...

I am using SB Audigy 2ZS soundcard and as a output I want to use ASIO. In playback options as a device I got 3 options to use: Creative ASIO; SB Audigy 2 ZS ASIO and SB Audigy 2 ZS ASIO 24/96.

When I choose first or second option then I can't play any files which have bigger than 44,100 hz sample rate; when I choose the third option, then I can't play any file which has 44,100 hz sample rate, unless I resample it to 96,000 hz, but then there is a noise. Of course I would like to use the third option - is there a way to get this working?

For example in AIMP3 (other player) I got the same options to choose & when I choose SB Audigy 2 ZS ASIO 24/96 everything is ok, without oversampling.

Any ideas?

thanks.

What are you choosing under Tools > Options > Audio....

as I mentioned, I got 3 options but whichever I choose I find some troubles.

My apologies,thought you were referring to Windows display devices. So presumably you have MC audio options and DSP set correctly.

Is the the asio driver disabled elsewhere and only enabled in MC and you are using latest drivers? Hope someone else can give specific solution.

I guess it's due to 64-bit internal processing in J River. AIMP3 has 32-bit processing. It's just ASIO cannot handle this. :(

My external DAC has a native ASIO driver which works beautifully with MC.I have heard that  SB Audigy 2ZS driver can be problematic but usually producing no sound for the 24/96,there was even I think a registry tweak for this.Perhaps try ASIO4All ? Hopefully others will offer something else.

Great idea! Works perfect with asio4all! I didn't know that this is possible...Thanks a lot! Now I can peacefully use J River! :)
