No, it's the same. The only way I managed to fix this problem was by changing the graphics card from a GTX680 to a GTX980. The pin 19 trick never worked on the 680. It just caused MediaPortal to crash in a slightly more graceful way. Using a HDMI doctor worked 90% of the time but it seems like an expensive fix for what is...

Made some progress.
The office PC was not using the MP client credentials, instead it logged on as guest (although the guest account is off). I had to delete the credentials to force a new request for credentials.
Now I have two additional accounts for network access on the MP server, one MP client to allow read access and one MP...

Interestingly, graphics drivers can cause this error (greyed out option) - using a different revision can fix it.

I got exactly the same problem.
Also fresh Windows 8.1 Pro with MP 1.11 (Pre 11 Version)

It sometimes mutes for 1-2 seconds and than it works.
Anybody can help both of us?

The problem seems to have gone mysteriously. I installed the PureAudio plugin but still using standard windows playback, no ASIO driver, and I think it was around that time the problem vanished.

Has anyone had any experience of using Openelec with Mediaportal backend?

Yes MePo is a lot more powerful and has more features than openelec (XBMC)
There is no Mediaportal front end for openelec. Openelec is XBMC + Linux operating system. Mediaportal uses windows operating system.

I have seen the exact same issue on my HTPC. I also use Vista, and I too could never figure out which process was thrashing the harddrive. I normally used suspend with MediaPortal, but found out that when I used my MCE remote to turn off the computer sometimes Windows would do the shutdown and shutdown in hibernation instead. When...

Yeah, I migrated to Win7 fairly recently, mainly for gaming and so I could use more than 4GB.
I think I would have stuck with XP if I could have, as there's quite a few annoyances in Win7 (like Explorer doing weird things when clicking on folders) but it's not too bad and I'm getting used to it.

That's strange. Using WASAPI over Directsound would mean less latency between the player and the amplifier but my hazy understanding of audio sync is latency is handled by the standard automatically. If you're adjusting the audio delay do it in MP not your amp as the amp will adjust for everything it receives over the HDMI link which...

A snapshot method would be more reliable and useful for MediaPortal. You could calibrate in settings. by Toggling display on then off then on again as directed by configuration.

The PC itself was still reactive, i.e. taskbar etc. functioning...
