Sorry if this topic is in the wrong forum, but....

With the lousy sounding feed lately on RM through Real Audio, I've attempted WMP. However, every time I play it seems to "skip" (like its buffering but I don't see any buffering message), especially with Totalrecorder running. It is inaudible.

Do any of you more 'puter literate folks have any suggestions with how to rectify this? :-?

I've tried have two browsers open; tried changing the Totalrecorder settings...I'm thinking that I'm outta options and will be disappointed if I can't get any shows from this leg of the tour... :(

I listened with windows media most of last night, but about half-way through the show i lost it and i got a media player error. Maybe RM is having problems with the windows media conncection.

I just connected using windows media with no problem and it sounded great. Maybe you'll get it worked out by tommorrow night.

If you open or close or Minimize or Maximize a window, you get that click with WMP

Thanks gumby....I've noticed that, too....

Seems that I may have fixed the WMP problem, or so it seems, now I can't get totalrecorder to work with WMP.... :o :x

I sure hope they fix that real audio feed soon!!!!

I dont have total recorder. I record any audio streams with a program called cool edit pro. I also use it for recording my own music that I create. I dont know what you can do on total recorder, but with programs like cool edit, you can delete the gaps, change the amplification, fade in/out, heck even put reverb on the whole thing. My sound card software (audigy 2) also has an audio stream recorder, but I was not satisfied with the way those recordings sounded.

Last night was my first attempt and I have Xp. Sounded great and worked with Total Recorder perfectly, except for the drop that everybody seemed to have suffererd. XP seems to be the way to go.
