Is 2.014 still skipping audio?

[Wayne White]

Back on the previous version (before 2.?) I never had any problems playing Windows Media Player with Hoster open. Now WMP has very obvious dead air even with Hoster closed. It does not happen all the time & not every time on the same song.

I loaded Mix Meister & it has the same problem. What is unusual though is that I don't have this problem with the MTU laptop I bought. It has Windows XP Pro & 2 - 40 gig harddrives.

My 2 HP Pavilions have 1 - 40 gig harddrive & Winows XP Home Edition. All 3 computers have the same size processor.

The MTU laptop has 512 gig of Ram, I upgraded the HPs to 768 gig thinking RAM may be the problem. I also defragged the harddrives (which they really needed), but did not solve the problem.

I can live with the occasional burps we get in Hoster when opening/closing windows, but I really really would like to be able to get my dance music to play on these other 2 computers.

Is anyone running XP Pro having this audio skip problem in Windows Media Player or other DJ software?? Or are all of the problems happening in other operating systems. I will gladly update my other PCs to XP Pro if this will resolve the problem .

I am just wondering whether MTU has noticed something in the Hoster install that would cause all of the problems being reported when trying to run other Music Players even with Hoster closed?

Are you looking at this as a problem? If not, do you have an estimate on how long it will be before we can drop WMA files into our Hoster playlist from an existing folder?

I heard it on the shuttle X. It does happen. I was just typing in a song on the play list while someone was singing. BELEIVE me it is happening.
