![]() ![]() Factor in old videos that were encoded using codecs that have been long discontinued, then it becomes a real pain to just play back your collection of movies. The scripted MS advice has been tried, more than once, and is useless, so don't bother with that - I probably need somebody who knows how W10 audio actually works and what's different from W7.Whilst the various media player developers attempt to convince us to use their codec to encode our home video, this means that we often have to have more than one media player installed to play every video, audio and other media, on our computer. Is that really what's necessary? If so, I will just stick with 7 once I have it back and working. Considering that doing that would require nuking all of my data and software requiring fresh installs on this, my main computer, NVidia 750ti (yes, to check, I did disable nVidia HD Audio device no change)įunny: everything seems to work OK in a laptop that first had Win7 clean-installed on a newly formatted disk before upgrading. Groove Music is less affected (though not immune) likewise WMP and Diamond Cut DC8.5. ![]() VLC was my go-to player, but apparently won't do it in 10 - too sensitive to a fundamentally broken audio system. Tried raising the VLC priority to "high" in Task Manager - no improvement.īasically, I.Give.Up. Cumulative update the next morning apparently reinstalled the Realtek driver which again had to be reverted. Answer Desk (mostly useless) reinstalled 10 (I have image of the Win7 system, which is good since the Answer Desk process destroyed the ability to "go back" ) which made it worse again switching back to the generic driver produced some Realtek driver (for HD Audio on motherboard) was horrible "generic" HD Audio driver slightly betterīut only slightly. I did the Windows 10 free upgrade from Win 7 SP1 fully updated sound didn't work at all initially, then started working when rebooted a couple of times. VLC and other audio software worked flawlessly on this same system in Windows 7. It is by far the most sensitive (more so than Groove Music and WMP) to audio problems I'm having with the system, with frequent ticks, pops, dropouts, skips, and what sounds like buffering even when playingįrom the local hard disk. VLC Player does NOT work correctly in Windows 10. Warning: kind of a rant, but I am not happy with Win10 or with VLC running in it. ![]()
