Conflict using 2 audio cards w/Winamp 3
Using 2 audio cards w/Winamp 3 Running 2k w/sp2 and a PII 450 and Intel chipset (surely NOT my favorite, only a cheap 2nd box). I have 2 audio cards: The first is a Winnov Videum AV video capture card with audio.
Using 2 audio cards w/Winamp 3
Running 2k w/sp2 and a PII 450 and Intel chipset (surely NOT my favorite, only a cheap 2nd box).
I have 2 audio cards:
The first is a Winnov Videum AV video capture card with audio.
The 2nd is a Creative SB CT4810.
I added the SB after because the audio from the capture card sucks! It is noisy especially when playing mp3's. They are full of static and hiss where the SB with the stock Windows drivers (I didn't load anything else) is fine! Not that I'm a fan of Creative or especially stock Windows drivers, but that is the case here. The Winnov has the lastest drivers for 2k.
The problem is when I play audio CD's using the SB as the default device in sound & multimedia properties (box checked) I have no level control in Winamp. If I use the capture card I have control. This is only fron CD's.
I hope this is clear. Any ideas?

I have used the older Winamp but not on this box!
I will uninstall and reinstall a older version. I hope I still have somewhere.

Yeah, or you can grab 2.81 at http://classic.winamp.com/ Personally, I don't care for 3.00. I am using 2.81 here, and honestly I don't want to upgrade. Maybe the next version will address my complaints.

I have V2.73.
V 2.81 is the later version. I will download it and try and let u know.
I also noticed V3 is TWICE the size of V2.73!

AFAIK, the reason behind this is the added support for playback of video files. The added codecs, interface, etc are what makes up the filesize.

Unnecessary waste of space that only confuses the issue more!
There is a option, among others, under:
options/preferences/plugins/output/ direct sound/compatability/ to create a primary buffer!
No wonder you can't find anything buried that many layers deep. I thought Windows was bad!
No idea what 'creating a primary buffer' has to do with audio quality though!
