  • 6.6 kills analog inputs of multibridge extreme

    Posted by Chris Borjis on October 26, 2007 at 12:16 am

    I updated to 6.6 for my multibridge extreme and it made both the component and composite analog inputs impossible to use.

    The video was extremely dark, over saturated and missing colors
    (like a really bad 3/4 dub with barely a signal)

    I uninstalled 6.6 and went back to 6.4 and thank goodness its ok.

    Same problem here.
    I was having audio issues with the 6.4 driver/firmware (crackle and digital noise). So I upgraded to 6.6 and it fixed the audio issues, but my analog video output (component) breaks up and flashes black freqently. The analog video input seems to be missing the blue component.

    I also stepped back, but to version 6.5. Video is now fine, but audio crackle is back too.

    Update to that post. Here are my driver test findings so far.

    driver 6.4 – Analog audio and monitoring breaks up, crackles and residual noise

    driver 6.5 – Same Problem as above

    driver 6.5.1 – Same problem as above, not quite as bad, but analog YRB video breaks up occasionally

    driver 6.6 – Audio problem fixed, video problem worse. YRB capture missing blue channel and YRB output breaks up frequently.

    So I guess that 6.5.1 is the most stable. But I have rolled back to 6.4 to keep video stability and have connected an AES audio output in hopes that it fixes the problem.

    After installing the new 6.6.1 drivers for my MB Extreme it seems to have solved all of the audio and video problems on Digital and Analog outputs.

    All is well.

    Thanks Guys!!
