MediaPortal Audio Renderer - Strange Clock / Sync Issues (4 Viewers)

But it generally advised not to use it with live TV, right?

I'm using it for LiveTV for a long time. I have the timestretching function disabled (since that won't work with a Live stream, unless the above applies about the HW clocks) and i can use WASAPI to my receiver.

I didn't use mpar for a long time now. Sound quality is a bit less I think.

Bit less than directshow you mean? How should that happen with a better mixer involved?

The Windows Audio Session API (WASAPI) is Microsoft's most modern method for talking with audio devices. It is available in Windows Vista, Windows 7, and later versions of Windows. It allows delivering an unmodified bitstream to a sound device, and provides benefits similar to those provided by ASIO drivers. One of the other main benefits of WASAPI is that it provides applications with exclusive access to audio devices, bypassing the system mixer, default settings, and any typically any effects provided by the audio driver. WASAPI is the recommended Audio Output Mode for Windows unless your audio device has a well-behaved ASIO driver, and it effectively replaces all legacy output modes including Kernel Streaming and Direct Sound.

I just use passthrough of dts, dolby etc. and it sounds better to me than with mpar.

Weird, but i'd say: then follow your ears

Maybe I have high end ears

Or I configured it wrong? [emoji16] anyway, the way it is now is perfect for me [emoji57]

Maybe (but i think i have those also)

Wrong configuration is possible. This is mine:

Looks the same as I can remember it. But the option resampling quality makes me nervous This may be the reason I hear a difference

That indeed is an important 1.

Which proves my ears are really high end [emoji57]
