Playback speed problem

[BSPeter]

Simply copying installation files from one PC to another will not help even if the paths used are the same, unless both PC's are fully idential (hardware and software, incl. drivers etc.). This surely is not the case for you, as one appears to be a desktop and the other a laptop. Also BS.Player´s settings which are optimal for one computer, may not be for another computer!
(Also, depending on your PC's operating system and the choices you made during installation, the settingsfiles will be in different locations on different PC's.)
Question: when you first installed BS.Player on your desktop, respectively your laptop, did you allow it to internally install its preferred codecs-filters? (Internally meaning for use by BS.Player only and not interfering with your system's codecs/filters.)

BSPlayer's settings are saved in BSplayer.xml file. This file it's accessed and modified each time you open BSplayer. It does not store hardware informations.
On the other hand, the ability to modify playback rate it's given by the filters used to decode the file, not by BSPlayer itself. You need ti find a combination of filters that can manage this operation and install them on your PC.
In my case, qasf.dll it's used to decode MP3 files and have no problem in modifying playback rate. For AAC files i'm using CoreAAC with no problems. AC3 files decoded through AC3Filter, no problems.

If you mean the filters which may show during the installation, then yes. There were several and i installed them all, but i reinstalled bs player yesterday and did not install any optional codes/filters. The only filter present is the Default Directsound Device and it seems to work. I deleted the copied files from my C: drive of course.

I now have access to my laptop and i see that once again only the Default Directsound Device is running and it works correctly.

The problem did return again. I observed the filters and the FFD audio decoder has been installed automaticly. It functions with the standard filter. I disabled some options in the properties display of the FFD audioshow and now it only uses the filter i prefer.

No a large part (not all) of BS.Player's settings respectively the user's preferences are stored in that file, so ...?

And (to be sure) your problem has now been solved?

Yes, the problem has been solved. I can listen to music with playback speed now, without errors. I appreciated the help, thanks!
