Consumer audio cards exhibit differences with the phasing and polarity of
the audio signal. Tolerances will vary with each brand of card. These
limitations are inherent to the hardware and will display in all applications
that play audio through the card.
Sound Blaster Audigy Card
This workaround was supplied for the Avid Xpress DV Windows 2000
Operating system. It has not been tested for the Windows XP operating
system. The workaround should still apply.
If you are using a Sound Blaster
®
Audigy card with Avid Xpress DV, after
a few minutes of play, the sound will no longer be heard through the card
output. The only way to fully restore the output is to quit and reboot the
system. Avid has traced this problem to the Sound Blaster Audigy driver
installation. Use the following instructions to install your Sound Blaster
Audigy card.
