From my point of view as an end user that simply wants to use the software I only want a solution, my technical experience is small as far as computing is concerned although ok as far as

I don't know the format of the incoming UDP packets that you receive from the different servers/reflectors, but if they have any kind of information contained within them such as a sequence number or

For what its worth: Initially, I had similar problem with Buster and ThumbDV on my MacBook Pro. Following Jeremy’s advice, I unplugged and replugged the ThumbDV and it was fully seen, and now

The actual bandwidth requirement is not so much, but as Pericles points out, it's reliable, properly sequenced, and consistent (low jitter) delivery of UDP packets within that bandwidth. -- John D.

There are no guarantees with the internet. When the pipe anywhere along the route overflows the packets are dropped. Good ISP’s have an excess of bandwidth to avoid most of the issues but smaller

There isn’t a packet buffer at all in Buster. Every packet received is processed in the order they are received as they are received. With a UDP protocol, there’s not much use in buffering a

No unfortunately i sold the old dongles but once mac software was available i decided to buy another. Sounds like its down to my isp, if it is ill keep the dongle as in the future am sure my broadband

This would affect any voip users as well. Do you still have the old 'dongle' to test. It may a deterioration of your ISP circuit, or it may just be temporary. -- John D. Hays K7VE PO Box

not good then, the retailer is also doing tests. i can’t see anyway of altering packet/audio buffering size in the software. i am contacting my isp but they tend to have no interest, so long as you

Just done another pingtest here in the UK .. ping 16ms, jitter 1ms As John etc says, your problem looks certain to be your internet connection :(

221ms sounds high. According to pingtest we have 25ms ping, 20ms jitter (here in the UK). If your getting no packet loss, then maybe try increasing the packet/audio buffering size (assuming the

I don't have a definitive answer, but in VOIP applications, 36ms of Jitter is considered high. "Jitter - This is measured in milliseconds and is created by some instability in your connection. It is a

Just done a test as suggested: Packet loss 0% Ping 221ms Jitter 36ms What do you think?

A tool everyone should get familiar with http://www.pingtest.net/ Packet loss and jitter are your enemies. These are things that can only be fixed on your network connection / ISP. The connection

I did some tests and here are the details: here are 3 tests i did: 1) transmit 8 seconds, return 6.8 seconds 2) transmit 11.3 secs return 7.8 seconds 3) transmit 15.1 secs return 11.1 seconds So you

What's your internet quality and uplink? Could just be simple packet loss Sent from a mobile device.

Have been doing testing and the problem seems to be packet losses. Eg: when calling on REF001E 3 calls one after the other. 1) transmit 8 seconds, return 6.8 seconds 2) transmit 11.3 secs return 7.8

On two Windows 10 desktop computers I use, I had the same problem. When you try to start WinDV, it stops working abruptly and exits, giving no reason for why. Windows just says DVnode

I’m really lost here. What readme RTF file are you talking about? Unless I’m going senile at a very early age, I don’t recall shipping any RTF files with Buster. It *IS* a simple application

am at a loss Got the dongle today and got it working with buster and win dv (one macbook pro and one windows 10 laptop) Every one i spoke to complained of audio breakup - did adjustments on built in
