Wav stops playing

[Gerard]

Peter,

Yesterday once and today in one hour twice the music stops playing. It happends with a Wav cd wich i have played many time's. It stops playing when the music goes to another track. The strange thing is that the slider keeps on moving just the same when a song is playing (with music).

When i let slider  keep on walking and it is at the end of the song (without music) the next song does play. No special errors come up.

Did you nodice it?

Hi Gerard,

I had the same thing happening yesterday, the music stopped but unexpected it started again after about 10 minutes or so.
I think this happened to me in the past too but I'm not sure.

So far ... no. Didn't notice anything of the kind.
If you see a pattern, I trust you will let it know ?

Hey Gerard, ;-)

You are right there was a moment that i had it before... But it was gone at a moment...

Grtz Gerard...

Peter,

If i see anything strange i will let you know.

But thinking about the one today. I can't be sure at the moment ... But if i remember correctly the space between the little counting stripes down the slider where bigger... So it looks like the song is shorter.
A counting thing?

But if it comes up i will make a pic.

This happens to me a lot and has for a while. Sometimes a song will play all the way through with no sound. So, as the songs play, one or two will play normally and then one may play through with no sound (slider moves through the song) and  then the next song will play through normally. I have watched this for a while now and can't seem to find a pattern. It is pretty random. So when this happens, I press "Play" as the slider moves silently along. Then the song will restart and play normally.

Hi Mike,

I am quite sure your problem is not the same as what this topic is about;
If you have a MacBook and/or a DDDac it is kind of know (from a year ago though), and if not, please tell me your configuration and which Engine you use.

Thanks,
Peter

Hi Peter,

I use a Toshiba Satellite notebook PC running Vista Home Premium. It has an Intel dual core processor, 1.6 Ghz. with 2 gigs of RAM. My XX settings are Scheme 3, Nothing and High.  DAC is set at 16 Bits.

What is happening to me sounds (to me) identical to what Gerard stated in his first post.

Best,

Mike

[PeterSt]

Mike, I am sorry. Now I read your both posts again I must agree with you.
But please put your configuration and all in your signature. I may be able to find a pattern in there, especialy when more people are going to tell the same.

One thing I know (and this is addressed to Gerard as well) : a track shorter than 14 seconds or so won't play.
This is due to the buffering in memory, and can be solved by me with explicit attention. I just did not so far, combined nobody mentioning it.
I noticed myself at playing the Mattheus Passion last Easter. Didn't work well.

Hi Peter,

I know my first post was a bit confusing... I am sorry. The tracks skipped aren't unusually short or long... It appears very random to me.

I will work on my signature. I don't often post so I haven't spent the time,  my apologies for that as well.

I usually just check in from time to time to update to the latest version and see if anything new or old has been solved.

Best,

Mike

[PeterSt]

The blame is on me Mike.
Do you recall since when you have this problem ? or has it been always like this for you ?

[Mike]

Hi Peter,

I have been using XX from the beginning and following things even before in the BD Design days...

There have been so many versions that I don't remember exactly when it started but it has been quite some time now. I figured that it was me or my machine (and it still may be). I don't spend the time on these things as some people here do. So if I had to guess, maybe a couple of months or more now. And I update pretty regularly.

Still working on my signature....

Same problem here! Sometimes i don't see this error for a while and today it happens in tree albums eg after four or five tracks. I think it make no difference if you play attended or not.

Today i was using the PCI Soundcard.

Gerard,

I'm sure you mentioned this in your first post here because something occurred to you which wasn't normal. But if I may ask, would you still recognize this as something happening to 0.9v-1 which didn't happen in the before versions ? Or, how many times did you have this by now (0.9v-1) ?


GerardA,

In fact the same questions, although from your post I can't derive that the sound stops for the duration of exactly one track. Any new opninions by now maybe ?


Johan,

I know you said "same here", but you quoted less from gerard than Gerard actually said. In other words, to me it looks like that for you the music doesn't continue playing at a next track (after one being silent). Is it correct that you didn't try this (or that with you the music just never starts playing again ?

i don't see this error for a while

No matter Johan said this, I think everybody agrees that these things happened before (longer time ago) *and* that actually nobody explicitly reported this (not that I recall). But, I know it was there, but I do NOT recognize that the time cursor kept on running in any circumstance. I only wantto say : if you are referring to the past, please be sure that you refer to the same thing.
Also, I don't think anything can have changed in 0.9v-1 opposed to the before (0.9u-16) version, but :

I do think things can have changed on the matter of "stops playing at the end of a track" in several of the 0.9-u versions and the different means of calculating the length of a track. I am sure one of these 0.9-u versions solved the problem regarding this as how I encountered it myself, but I don't know which 0.9u version exactly.

I must assume your problem is related to the (wrong) calculation of the running time of the track. If this is the case -and when it happens- you can recognize this by the fact of the time cursor being at the end long before the track is at the end of playing (with long I mean 30 seconds or so), or the other way around, the cursor is long before reaching the end, but the track actually already is (note : this is *not* how I ever encountered the problem myself the longer time ago, but anyway).

It would be great if you all could confirm that your WAVs concerned are from another origine than EAC, or that you just don't know because you bought it over the Internet etc.

Whatever it is causing this, so far this still did not happen even one time to me ...

Peter,

It is really hard to say because sometime's it's gone for a while. After my first post i waited and waited. But it did not came up again. For sure i can say it's been there before. All the time's before i just pressed stop and than play again. Never let the whole song end. The last time i did wait and the song after the songs with no music that one did play.
But 15 min ago there it was again. The cd i played was WAV and again someone i have played many time's with no problem. So i just waited and made pic's. I do not see anything strange but maybe you do. It has been the 4 time it happend with this version. But i like to say that i have not played music for a week. Going back to the error i waited until the second (track song and now the second (track   did not play and the error down below came up. I have tried to play track 6 again and waited for 7. Now 7 played without any problems. I did nothing with the PC.

Sorry i have written a bit fast.
