hi there.

I am currently using this voice messenger client called Skype (www.skype.com) , and i must say i like it a lot. One thing bothers me tho, and that is a Scope related prob.

I mainly use this client for speaking to friends via microphone, and my project has an analouge source (mic) into wave dest via a channel. It also has a wave source going into my mixer for playback.

Now, the issue is, whatever audio i recieve when my friends speak, is timestrecthed :s Althou it is amusing to hear my friends sounding like drugged out crack-whores, it gets annoying. anyone have a clue how to fix this, or is it just a driver bug?

my friends hear me fine tho.

cool. I think I'll check out what this "skype" thing is. Anyhow, it sounds like a samplerate related problem.. Skype must be communicating with SFP at a strange samplerate. (I'm just guessing)

Yes, there's some sample rate conversion going wrong using Skype and Scope. Afaik, the SFP wav drivers accept common sample rates. But does Skype recognise the incoming 44.1?

I had the same problem, now I use another machine online...

At0mic hit the nail on the head..

Sample rate conversion is the problem, I would assume skype (and I also use this software), more than likely has a fixed sample rate, and since SFP has a fixer rate, the two are colliding and causing this..

Not much of a help I know but I just wanted to confirm my thoughts were same as at0mics :wink:

Cheers!
