Soundcard configuration

[DaPiV90]

Hi @ all,

i was running PDW on my old system with no problems at all. Sometimes i had to restart but that is no problem for me so i was very happy with the overall work of PDW.

Now i changed almast all components of my system like Mainboard, CPU and i am running into the problem that PDW stops decoding. I have to change the Interface configuration to another source. For example from Discriminator 1 to Discriminator 3 and than PDW starts to work again. This problem shows up about all 4-5 hours.

Someone got an idea what is going on there? I changed the Input volume of my system (the sweet spot seems to be about 85-87) but that doesn't have any effect...

Hope for help
Greetings Dave

sorry for my bad English

Hi Dave,
Using the sound card as your means of feeding data to PDW is never going to be optimal.

At a minimum change to using a discriminator tap, and ideally also use one of the USB interfaces that Rene has developed.

If you want to keep with the sound card method, it's all about trial and error I'm afraid.

Cheers
