In Reply to: RE: cPlay - the open source high-end audio player using ASIO posted by cics on May 05, 2008 at 13:31:58
Hello All,
Just received the Juli@ PCI card yesteday and installed it. There is audio output using the ASIO4All driver. With it, I can see the 1/2 and 3/4 output seections as well in cPlay settings. However, cPlay does not see a juli@ ASIO driver from ESI software CD.
Let me preface by saying, the juli@ card took 3 weeks to arrive, so I began using cPlay and cMP with the on-board sound card. It sounded very nice. The Juli@ with the ASIO4All driver sounded much better. Anyway, before installing the Juli@ drivers on first boot, I went into the BIOS and shutdown the integrated sound card, then removed the ASIO4All driver.
XP Pro 64-bit found the Juli@ card, then proceeded to manually install the two drivers: Juli@ Controller and Juli@ Audio (I think it was Juli@ Audio.) I did not install any other software to avoid anything unnecessary from going into the system. Device Manager show no warning of missing drivers.
Reading through this thread, I still need to check if the Juli@ card has its own dedicated IRQ. Is there anything else I can check to see why cPlay is not finding the Juli@ ASIO driver? Maybe the juli@ ASIO driver needs to be dropped in a folder somewhere? Are there any other software requirements?
Thanks in advance,
Vince

try toggling between 1/2 and 3/4...one id digital one is analog.
Theob,
Thank you for the reply. I will try it tonight. Didn't see this message earlier. Email notification was off.
Do you have any recommendations on moving the sound card IRQ?
Juli@ shares IRQ 19 with the SATA controller. The Gigabyte MB only has 1 PCIe and 1 PCI slot. The card is PCI. Had to wait a month for the PCIe Juli@ card.
While using the on-board sound card, there was break-up in the audio playback. It doesn't happen with the Juli@ card, but that doesn't mean the SATA controller is not adding noise to the bus. Might try to move IRQ via BIOS, but read the OS takes over anyway, regardless of the BIOS setting. Might also try moving the SSD SATA drives to another connector, but that might not work because of boot requirements. The BIOS had some adjustments, so it may work. If it works, I can shutoff the offending SATA controller.
Might look at a more "advanced" motherboard. The Gigabyte board I'm using allows for under-clocking, but it's missing some fine tuning.
The CPU temp in the BIOS reads between 28C-35C. Most of the time, it's at 32C. Using an i3 Ivy with 22nm technology.
Thanks for your help.
Vince
I think you can reset irq in bios but follow all the instructions in the cmp web site. This will give you all the tweaks necessary for initial sonic benefits
