DDDamian Wrote:@meridius @DanielaE - correct it's an independent entity. I've tried previous versions of both the ATI/AMD and Realtek drivers while working on the output sink for WASAPI in AE.
@meridius - the only real issue the latest driver (version 7.12.0.7705 12/6/2011) fixed in my testing was with 88.2 & 176.4khz audio - reported as supported in the driver panel, as well as by the GetSupported() WASAPI method but rejected on actual initialization as unsupported. Corrected in that version. These sample rates are pretty exclusive to SACD DSD/PCM conversion, so if you don't use SACD rips I saw no other benefit.
Cheers mate
Might just leave it be then as I don't use sacd rips and don't want to start messing around. I might download 12.1 driver and keep it just in case and also seems just as stable for htpc use.
I use WASAPI in my audio options instead of Realtek. Is this the better driver to use and is it ati drivers.
Cheers
