Moderator Miro Posted September 30, 2016 Author Moderator Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 If you still have problems with clicking/popping sounds then it's probably not a bug in WATCHOUT but an interference problem between the GPU and sound device on the PCIe bus. This issue occurs on relatively new computers (including WATCHMAX) with Intel C612 or X99 chipsets. This interference comes when the GPU changes it's clock frequency. This occurs more often with AMD hardware than with NVIDIA cards. The problem is not limited to WATCHOUT and can be triggered in any application as soon as audio and video are played simultaneously. The solution to this problem is to force the PCIe link speed for the GPU. We will be testing this fix and include it in WATCHOUT 6.1.5 if it works well. Until then you need to set it manually. Run regedit Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318\0000 Create a DWORD (32-bit) Value named “ForcePcieLinkSpeed” and set the value to 3 Reboot If you by any chance have a 0001, 0002 or 0003 folder in the 4D36E968-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318 folder then repeat step 3 in all these folders.

Yousefjuma Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 I have been facing this issue recently, and to be honest I didn't know the source of it. So luckily its software issue. Since we are into the topic of WO updates, What is the proper way to update WO version. Is it be uninstalling then installing or simply installing the newer version? Sorry if its not the place to post this. Thanks in advance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Miro Posted October 1, 2016 Author Moderator Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 Hi, it shouldn't really matter but I would recommend to uninstall the old version and then install the new version on the production computer. Then you can push the new version to the display servers when you go online. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Miro Posted October 1, 2016 Author Moderator Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 When a HAP is dropping frames it's usually when the power plan is not set to "High performance". The "Balanced" power plan that is default in windows is clocking down the PCI bus causing the HAP to stutter. However the timeline shouldn't stop. Do you have something else on the timeline simultaneous as the HAP? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
