Great find! We verified this and are working on it now.

There were a couple of problems
The audio stuttering problem is still present but less frequent
Three times during my show tonight the audio slowed down and stuttered.
This occured while I was either searching for a song or adding an audio file to the playlist while a karaoke or audio song was already playing.

MTUSUPPORT has been playing for over 6 hours now without any audio drop. He has 16,000+ in his Songs.mdb, and has searched on "*" wildcard so all 16K were found, clicked a song and Add Track, clicked a song, selected "Bryan" singer clicked and "S+". So far, no audio drops even, much less stuttering. This is a P4 3GHz Vista 64 system with all our recommended changes made, including "Aero theme" disabled (Vista Home "anything" doesn't have this to our knowledge, only V64 and V-Business). It has been perfect.

Sync all night... Great news!!!!! We also remained in sync for 6 hours today. When we tested the Pause button, it did stop the audio and the lyrics continued. Since the lyrics would finish first, the last screen remained displayed until the audio finished. The next song to play was fine.

We have not been able to address this yet. If you can tell us:

1. What type of KMA file (HDCDG, CDCDG, HDMP3G, etc.) that was playing when it crashed?

2. Any other facts you can to help us re-create the crash?

This may work of Vista as well. ( I have not been able to determine the sequence of events that cause this, but it happens often.)

Thanks Laddie! That Skip tip may give us a lead on finding this problem.
We'll look into the Stop failing. Again, if there is any other facts you can tell us to help us re-create it, this speeds up our finding something real. As you can imagine, if we don't "find something", we don't know for sure it is fixed.

Awesome... and Terrible! I'm sorry we are putting you in this position with your friends/customers. Please tell them "The President of MTU sends his thanks to them, and that their "allowing" you to test on them is finding some bugs for us."
