Same trouble with Apple's latest update as everyone else. So I installed MM 3.1.2.1266, uninstalled QT, reinstalled newest QT, changed name of d_iPhone.dll to d_iPhone.dll.old, and re-opened MM 3.1.2.1266 and now, at the beginning of some songs (40-50%) I get a loud crackle-bang sound. Driving me crazy. Please help!

I have the same issue, just to report it. I installed iTunes 9, but I'm not using an iPhone (or even iPod). MM now plays well, but like a little blurt of inter-station radio noise between tracks. I installed Beat 1266 with "Debug" in title.

What file types does this issue occur with? Does switching output plugin under Tools > Options > Output plug-ins make any difference?

I've tried both out_mmds.dll and out_wave.dll, both with the same results.

The problem happens on wav and mp3. The only other files I have are flac and I haven't tried those.

Hi,

We're unable to reproduce this. If you observe this issue can you:
a) tell me what OS you're using
b) send a debug log as described at http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewto ... ?f=6&t=341

Thanks!

-Rusty

I haven't had the problem in two days. I deleted my scripts file and my plug-ins file, then installed 1267. I am using the MM Direct Sound Output. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Thanks again for the help. I wish I knew what caused it, but I'm glad it seems to be gone.

BTW just for the Record I hate Gigabyte for using lowcost/scrapped Realtek HD Audio Chip (ALC 2100) that are known to make issues. Try todownload driver from realtek even they say it is not supported. Didn't I mention I hate gigabyte for that.

What version of MM, what file types, what output/input plugins are you using (if not the default)? When do you hear the sound (between tracks, during tracks, at the beginning, etc.)?

MM 3.1.2.1267
File types: Mp3, FLAC, WAV, WMA
Input plugins: the eight that come standard with MM
Output plugin: MediaMonkey Direct Sound Output
When do I hear the sounds?: only at the beginning of songs and it happens 40-50% of the time. I get a loud crackle-bang sound.

Can you replicate the problem with the newest beta build?
