  • Unable to prepare DV device blah blah blah

    Posted by Simon Roughan on April 26, 2007 at 9:28 am

    Often when opening a project, I try to play the timeline and the composer window blinks with a white frame (like another window is over it, but theres none) and it tells me “Exception: ADV AudioDev: Unable to prepare DV device for audio output”, even though I have no DV device connected. Its very annoying, as I have to reboot the computer which takes time I dont have. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance

    I have found just turning off the adrenaline bob and turning it back on will often wake it up without having to reboot the pc.
    I also have to delete my deck configurations and rebuild them each tie I swich from capturing from analog to DNA or vice versa. If I don’t these errors wil drive a brother crazy.
