I sent a support email to flex today about a similar problem, no answer. I find that with 1.6.1 and 1.6.2 there is an annoying poping sound in the audio. I think it is related to something in the bitmap refresh code. They must have changed how the window is redrawn or something. It is most noticeable when you drag another window over the SDR1000 main window. The processor counter goes to near 100% on my system. I mostly hear it on AM reception, I don't know if it happens with wav files.
In 1.6.0, the redraw might not be as clean as in 1.6.1+, the processor also goes to near 100%, but there is no audio poping. Perhaps it's a case of tweaking the UI drawing code, but inadvertently affecting the DSP audio chain. -------- Original Message -------- > From: Mike Naruta <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Thursday, July 27, 2006 5:08 PM > To: "Jim, W4ATK" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [Flexradio] PowerSDR - distortion when playing .wav files > > Which version of PowerSDR are you using Jim? > > I get crackling on 1.6.2 and later beta versions, > and I'm using the Delta 44, even with slower FPS. > Bug Tracker #394.
