I don't have issues in 8.1Pro or 10 unless USB loses sync like getting knocked during playback. My problem is if i do a forced shutdown, it closes but keeps running a hidden instance that lags behind so I can't restart immediately all the time.I'd say you definitely have a compatibility issue or some interaction going on there. You might have a crappy usb cable?It feels a lot slicker than some of the WoW patches, game mechanics and dungeons I've had to deal with over the years. I mean logging into ShitWrath or Dalaran back in the day? Are you kidding?? It can be fickle, but I assure you your experience isn't universal so it might be worth investigating if you give enough of a rat's ass.
Moving my main server to a daphile with a realtime kernel eas pretty good. Designed out of box to be headless, it just works great.
Sorry, didn't see this earlier.JRiver intermittently freezes for a few seconds now and then, usually before music is playing.I've had it crash twice in its latest incarnation.It magically opens itself when I open certain programs.It also feels loose to interact with. It's hard to describe or put a pin on it, but the software feels bloated and unpolished. I'm a stickler for perfection in software (I'm a game designer at Blizzard--I have it baked into my soul).Maybe it has poor compatibility with Windows 8.1, but that's no excuse. My computer is super awesome and runs everything I throw at it perfectly.
