Sorry, we have no idea. It seems that the developer is very busy on other projects, but we all live in hope that he will find some time to update soon.
I can only compare with my own use of BADJ.
I also use XP SP3 on a desktop.
I run OtsAV software continuously with a mix of just audio and audio/video.
I have an M-audio 192 PCI card.So, the differences are the sound card/drivers and the playout software. Is it possible that you can play through the on-board sound? This might eliminate the card as the problem. Also, check to see if there are updated drivers for the Maya. If all that fails, it might be a problem with your playout software.
Figured as much, Boki, but gave him the benefit of the doubt because it’s not the usual gibberish English with embedded links.
I have used an M-Audio 192 card in ASIO for many years now BUT the two differences are that I am using Windows XP 32 bit, and I am using Breakaway DJ. No problems to report at all.
The instance I have seen (and reported) of this sounds very similar. It’s actually on my son’s HP laptop (Intel i5, Win7 32 bit). You say "Breakaway", but not the particular version. His is BA DJ. If he has the box ticked to launch on startup, BADJ launches and appears functional, but the sound is strangled and distorted (even Windows sounds). If he then shuts down BADJ and re-launches it manually, all is good.
As you say, it’s almost as if something else (like the audio layer components) has to get into gear before BA will work. I have almost the exact same scenario on my studio PC, except that it is still running XP Pro, and that works every time, so I suspect it is something to do with the way BADJ (or virtual cables) reacts with the new audio layers of Win 7. Thirty two or sixty four bit doesn’t seem to be a player.
I haven’t tried this, but, if inserting a delay will be a reasonable work-around until Leif can look at the code, try launching BA from a scheduled task, and maybe inserting a pause of a few seconds into the task. For instance, you could create a scheduled task to launch BA using an "On Event" trigger of "Windows Audio/Operational". This might give BA the wait-time it needs.
More information on your system and OS might help. I think I have seen this on a Win 7 32 bit laptop.
If it is line of sight, 5gig or even 2.4gig wifi point-to-point will work, but I’m not sure if the bandwidth is sufficient.
Sorry, I don’t have the Admin rights, nor the knowledge of the software to attempt to intervene. JesseG has indicated that those with the power to act have been informed, so we just need to ride it out.
It probably came with its own bundled "Dash Board" software, which owuld provide the option you seek. The Windows drivers are probably generic.
