Sound lags on regular intervals

[aramhaik]

Just got a new treo pro, but I experience a mild discomfort with the windows media player. When its playing and I have a screen saver active, it lags on regular intervals. By lagging I mean the sound just stops for a fraction of a second every like 30 seconds. This is extremely annoying. Anybody else having this issue.

BTW, the problem happens also when an alarm goes off and keeps on playing for like 1 minute. Even though, I assume it uses the same sound engine/codec.

thnx

it's the screensaver updating the time. try disabling it and you should be fine.

I'm just experencing the same thing on my treo pro. It's strange that Palm didn't make it work to have both screensaver and play music. You have to disable the screensaver or have the screen on while you play your music!?

hope Palm will fix that in an update!?

Use Pocket Tunes, it prevents the screensaver to start automatically.

i just use s2p, by a_c. its a great piece of sotware and makes listening to music so much better. almost never lags on me. =]

p.s. it is freeware and has an i-phone like interface. good luck, but the default wmp is horrible once you try s2p =]
