Hi guys n girls,

I've got a problem with quicktime, now since the last update of around Quicktime 6, I get a crackling sound through my speakers when trying to watch anything through Quicktime, but I though I'd wait for an update, guess what, just updated to 7.1 and its still there, so any suggestions? iTunes works fine. PS I'm unfortuuntly using a PC....

Cheers
 
Hey MacRules,

Perhaps you just have your volume up to high? Audio will crack when its gain it too high...maybe the volume on QuickTime or your system sound? I haven't heard of any particular cracking audio issues in QuickTime as of late.
 
OK, I've unistalled it, and reinstalled the iTunes bundled version and the stand-alone version, I've changed various settings in Quicktime, but it still won't work... Its sooo frustrating!

Any ideas please?!

Cheers
 
OK, I've updated all my drivers for my sound card and reinstalled Quicktime about 3times, and its still no good! Somebody please help!
 
OK, I've sorted it, finally, I reduced the sound output to 96KHz instead of 192KHz, as this somehow was muckin my driver up...

Oh well

Cheers
