Re: Mouse speed very slow in selecting recorded audio and recording is jumpy on the screen - any idea why?

Hi Steve, I've done that. Added the Audacity folder to the exclusions folder. On another note, I've completely taken the Internet out of the equation for recording what I want to record from there. It's a radio show and it also broadcasts on DAB (as well as the Internet.) I've plugged a DAB radio in...

Re: Mouse speed very slow in selecting recorded audio and recording is jumpy on the screen - any idea why?

Both antivirus programs are the same on both machines.

So can I disable the antivirus or close it down during recording or not?

The settings are the same on both machines.

Thanks.

Having shut it down, things are/were so much better.
That's the anti-virus that you are shutting down?

To recap (and save me from reading through 3 pages of messages), the problem occurs during recording?
Yes I closed down the antivirus.

And yes, it occurs during recording.

Thanks.

Re: Mouse speed very slow in selecting recorded audio and recording is jumpy on the screen - any idea why?

Same mouse too Steve for both machines. What I just tried on the affected machine is that I shut down/switched off the anti-virus protection. It's the same on both machines. It works fine on the good machine. Having shut it down, things are/were so much better. I think that because it's always runni...

Re: Mouse speed very slow in selecting recorded audio and recording is jumpy on the screen - any idea why?

Both machines are identical as they have the same processor. The only difference is that the first machine has an Nvidia GT610 video card. There's not much difference between the GT610 and GT710, so I doubt that is the problem, though drivers can make a significant difference. Perhaps worth checkin...

Done that Steve.

The mouse is still erratic and jumpy.

I'm out of ideas.

Thanks.

Re: Mouse speed very slow in selecting recorded audio and recording is jumpy on the screen - any idea why?

PC specs. 32GB of RAM. 2.6Ghz Duo Core processor. Display - NVidia G710 with 2GB of RAM. What about your display? How many pixels? Is there some improvement if you run Audacity in a smaller window rather than full screen? Hi Steve, 4K display. 3840 x 2160. No improvement. It's the same if I make th...
