Ventrilo Lag and Windows 7

Post by Panther » Tue Nov 02, 2010 11:11 pm

With a recent PC build with Seven x64bit and Ventrilo, I was noticing a great delay in voice conversations. However I wasn't seeing any ping spikes, the ping was staying around my normal 50-60.

A quick search around and I found a possible fix, so far (knock on wood) the lag is gone.

Open Ventrilo setup, select your audio hardware, select the check box for Use Direct Sound and click the SFX settings; select left and right front speaker from the available and select < - Add. Click Ok and close setup.
