Audio buzzing second time recording launched.

[dennit]

I've been running GBPVR for years without complaint. It's been years since I was last here, but I could use some advice. Recently, the second time I play a recording (DVR-MS) it usually has no audio - just a loud buzz. Another program will play fine the first time, then buzz the second. Some always seem to buzz the second time. Some never seem to buzz. I'm familiar with the logs and familiar with the lastgraph.grf. It seems to always show a simple ffdshow graph in GraphStudio that always works outside of GBPVR.

Perhaps someone here can suggest a strategy for tracking this down. It's the inconsistency that bugs me and makes it hard.

I'm willing to post logs, but it might be early. As an example, the graph info is the same for a buzz playback and the prior non-buzz playback, so for now, I'm just looking for suggestions of what GBPVR might do on a second playback that differs from a first one? I went back to a working install of GBPR from a few years ago, added the current GBPVR.db3 data file and it does the same thing.

Ah I am not alone in still using GBPVR then :-). I have never experienced anything like you describe - but I just wondered what setting you have in the FFdshow audio decoder/directshow control/multiple ffdhow instances? Mine is set to no limits.
Only ask beacause I know gbpvr does not 'release' ffdshow when you change TV channels, which can be a niggle when changing channels with different audio settings (if like me you use ffdshow profiles for the different sound formats). Wondered if playing recordings behaves the same?

Mine is set to:
"Only One - Check Previous Filter Only"
I recall changing this many years ago when I was having trouble with multiple instances. There was a thread on this and I followed the recommendations in that thread. Sorry for the delay, I guess the GBPVR section isn't that active. I checked back and didn't see a reply. I thought I'd almost tracked it down - I killed some processes and the problem disappeared, but I can't seem to reproduce the solution. It's a very weird problem. Something is getting set the first time GBPVR plays that interferes when it plays the second time. I'm going to go back and restore a very old backup or the system and see if it goes away.
