How do you increase buffer size?


I asked this question on numerous other threads but never received an answer. I just purchased an Audiophilleo 2 (which I thought was a plug-and-play device, but doesn't work. Perhaps because I need to download a certain software for that version?). Anyway, I bought/sold two other usb/spdif converters in the past, both of which made "clicks" and "pops" when playing music. I was told increasing buffer size would fix the problem. I couldn't figure out how to do that and still haven't received an answer.

So, my question is twofold:

1) How do you increase buffer size?

2) Does that need to be done with the Audiophilleo 2?

Is your computer a laptop by chance?

If yes, stop by your local computer tech shop or take it into work and ask the IT guy to show you how to tweak the buffer settings.

I would look in the set up software. For example in JR Media Center 17 you go to:
"Tools">>>"Options">>>"Audio">>>"Output">>>"Settings".

I set my buffer to 0.6 ms (micro seconds) with a 10 second head start from when I push play. I also cache everything from 6GB of memory. Look for something similar in your software. OR...

Invite the local computer geek over for a beer or pizza.
Good Luck!
