Popping in audio with Console 3

Paul Cianciolo #69868 Hello, I have a problem that has plagued me for quite some time now. When using Console 3 I get a popping sound in the audio. It is most noticeable when listening in AM mode. My computer runs Windows 10 64 bit I have 2 monitors with a Grforce 1080 video card. The popping happens with any of my SDR's RSP dou, RSP DX Airspy HF plus . When using any other SDR program, I do not have an issue, IE SDR#, SDR++, SDR UNO. SDR Console is 3.2 build 2731., but this has been happening for a couple of years not, not sure what build it started on. Here is the odd thing. If I open a browser and run a video intensive app. like say a YT video... The popping ceases and the audio is clean and consistent. With just the browser open the popping lessens, but with the YT video running the popping is totally gone. Also it is not signal dependent. I can disconnect the antenna and the popping still exists. I can send the log file if that would be helpful. Can anyone suggest what needs to be done to correct this? Thank you Paul C W1VLF

Simon Brown #69872 Please add a screenshot, What is your audio card, Have you increased the audio buffering? Increasing the CPU load does indicate something in the audio card setup.

Simon Brown #69885 Hi, Reduce the visual gain to 0, it's far too high, could be clipping, Otherwise it looks OK, let me know if reducing gain makes a difference.

jdow #69892 How often does it pop? Once a minute, once a second, several times a second? Minute type levels are VERY difficult to avoid. The others may be things like USB port overloaded or the like. {^_^} On 20230208 11:13:55, Paul Cianciolo wrote: toggle quoted message Show quoted text Hello, I have a problem that has plagued me for quite some time now.

jdow #69895 Um, version 3.2?

jdow #69896 I remember this bug from a LONG time ago. Updating the SDRC install may make a serious difference. This may also be related to computer throttling when demand is low. Playing a video in the background would keep the CPU running at a higher clock rate. {^_^} On 20230209 11:51:47, Paul Cianciolo wrote: toggle quoted message Show quoted text Hi Simon, Thanks for helping.
