Does anyone else have the same issue? AJ's update has been pushed. The stereo warnings should have gone away. However, I'm hearing noise spikes in the engine sound. I'm also seeing this error: ALC Error (sound manager): Invalid Enum at context creation. I'll try to analyse the sound to see if the noise spikes are present in the sound file. I can see no problem with the HSI either on the panel or in the property tree. HTH Vivian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Today I have been very busy with my wine harvest, and am now sitting down to rest. In see the rotating HSI problem only with Windows. It is not there on Linux. Also on Linux the HSI agrees with the RMI and magnetic compass, which is not the case in Windows, where the HSI either remains stuck on North, or rotates depending on the source select switch. As a test, I disabled my private aircraft directory in case this was causing the problem. Sadly the Lightning HSI continued to spin. Tortoise git pull and diff tools declare that my fgdata, flightgear and simgear directories are all up to date and correct. I think that I will go and stir the wine. Just 750 litres this year!
