Jplay Mini

Sorry to Johnjc, my intention wasn't to steal your thread. An update, I received an email from Marclin and Josef both, after reading their emails combined with the knowledge of my own laptop...I have come to believe that it is my processor, it is a 3gb dual core 64bit power hog. In High performance mode it drains my battery in about an hour and a half. Not only that but I have had it set up for performance, I am going to change its settings this evening to its most efficient settings and see if it makes a difference. By the way, for you guys that care about service, Josef offered to stay up and link to my computer and personally go through my settings to try to make this work. I am in the mid west, his time zone is a 7 hour difference. Thank you for the input, I'll post one last time with the final outcome.

No worries Tom I think it good to raise questions
I found them very helpful and hope they sort out your issue

Hello everybody,

I'm the co-author of jplay. It's great to see so many guys here enjoy jplay :)

Tim,

You've never told us what tracks (bit depth, sample rate, format) always produce distortions in your setup and I asked this 3 times :)

Anyway, I've just checked the musiland's specs and it seems that it doesn't support automatic sample rate switching - that's why you experience slow playback... Pls make sure to select the track's sample rate in musiland output settings before starting playback in jplay. That's the only way to make it work.

If anyone wants to ask us anything, just shoot us an email - we're happy to help :)

Cheers,
Marcin

Thanks Marcin, yes you have asked twice that I saw, I guess my answer of that I have loaded 1 to several tracks at a time, using 16/44.1 all the way through 24/192 was not what you were looking for. I have not said anything about setting my bit rate on the Musiland though. I have set the Musiland at 16/44 and at 24/96 and at 24/192 to match bit & sample of the tracks that I was listening to without success. So I don't think that was upconverting was the issue. When I cut my processor by 50%, I was able to listen twice more, then back to distorted play. Also as I explained in my emails @ 256, it plays at full speed, but still distorted. Hopefully this straightens out some mis communication.

JPlay is running, thank you all... The Problem?
Running Win 7, Foobar, Musiland w/wasapi out.
Marcin sent me an email that said to use Kernal streaming instead of wasapi. I looked at all my choices that were loaded in Foobar and Kernal Streaming wasn't even there. I went to the Foobar web site and found a Kernal Streaming add on, Loaded and everything fired up.
I don't have any idea what it could be, but there was something additional within that download, because since downloading and running Kernal Streaming, I can now switch to wasapi and it runs fine also. I have done 5 or 6 different downloads and have run them through wasapi out just fine. I hope my misfortune getting this set up and running might help someone in the future... Tim
