Hi all,
I am running Windows XP SP2 using an onboard VIA AC97 sound chip – latest drivers. I have noticed that I get severe phase shift distortion with some music clips, either MP3 or streaming audio, and even some CDs, when playing through Windows Media Player, whereas with Real Player, and other media players, the sound is fine.
I wouldn’t have a problem not using WMP at all, except that many streaming audio sources use it.
Teh problem happened in WMP version 9 and continues in v10
I checked the Microsoft site for any ideas and they mentioned a particular Creative file that WMP was not compatible with, but that file does not seem to exist on my machine.
Has anyone come up against this one, and more importantly, has anyone fixed it?
I would really appreciate any information.
Regards,
Alan
