Greetings,
I've been ripping 2 streams simultaneously with dBpoweramp , AIF for playback, FLAC for archival storage. I use a freshly built, dedicated music server w/o any superfluous programs or antivirus. Running W7 64-bit, latest J River MC using WASAPI. Gigabyte ga-ma785 mo-bo, using onboard Realtek ALC889 audio with W7 driver. Temporary setup is 2-ch. computer speakers plugged into analogue audio out. I get one pop at the end of every track immediately before next track from the mobo's audio out, also on headphones out. I switched JRMC to use the FLAC library--no pops!
One clue: The AIF files misstate the track times by 1 sec too much, and the pop happens right at the end of the actual track time as denoted by the CD/track listing. E.g., if a track is 3:00 minutes by track listing, the AIF in playback will go to 3:01 before switching to the next track and pop at 3:00. Where does this additional time come from?
Or, is this not a MC/AIF playback issue, but a dBpoweramp ripping issue? Can ripping add the pop somehow, or is it a MC AIF compatibility issue?
