Happens on my box even without the USB driver when
the mp3 is local to the audio driver. Except, its
not as accentuated as Axel states in my case. Its
more like for every 5 minutes of play there is a
5 second pause. This is an average I've taken of
9 occurances of the pause over today's daily work.
It only seems to occur in files (large?) enough
to contain data for more than a 5 minute period.
Mostly trance, the Grateful Dead or Cecilia Bartoli
in my case, lol. Based on the 'marriage' of time
and data could it be possible that the audio driver
buffer gets backed up? Audio from cdroms seems to
do this too, however, I don't listen to many cds
so my info on that angle is limited. If his audio
is choppy after he bails from USB use (or applies
the patch), if he uses it, I would think the
audio driver is at fault. Anyone else having
experiences like this?
