FAQ: Sound Issues or Crashes

Post by Erik Rutins »

If you are experiencing any issues with sounds or sound-related crashes, please follow these steps:

1. Update your audio drivers
2. Uninstall any unnecessary third-party codecs.

We also have a confirmed report that an older version of ffdshow caused a conflict and sound crash with DW2.
