General Discussion / Frequent crashes during song change using NotSoDirect plugin
« on: July 28, 2026, 11:57:19 PM »
Hello,
Compared to the crashes I reported in a thread started by another user months ago—which occurred regularly at the beginning of a new track—I’m now experiencing issues at the end of tracks. The program doesn’t always crash, but whenever it does, it happens before it pre-buffers the next track and without triggering a crash report.
I restarted WACUP in ProcDump mode to attach a crash report here. I want to point out that I’ve enabled the option to trim silences at the beginning and end of tracks. From the changelog, I noticed that this might have caused issues in the past, although this is certainly a new problem.
I hope this is an easily fixable issue so that you developers can rest easy about this NotSoDirect plugin.

attached dmp file removed (will reply when it's been looked at) & size of the text changed to follow the forum / browser default.

I think I didn't express myself clearly, so I'll use a translator this time. What I meant was that Not So Direct is my preferred output option given the lack of logarithmic volume in the WASAPI output. In any case, this is a matter of personal preference. As you said, every output option has its pros and cons.
Actually, I also didn't mention earlier that I experienced stuttering, especially when I lowered the buffer from the default of 2000 to about 1000 to see if it would make a difference with the crashes. In fact, before it crashed, I noticed significant stuttering. Maybe check if it has something to do with buffering

I am experiencing the exact same issue since the last update (1.99.49.24360). However, after the new May 4th update nothing changed, and instead of happening only shortly after launch, it happens with a new playlist, so when I open a file from my media library with a 50% chance.
No error reporting gets triggered and running with /procdump or in safe mode still causes issues. Switching from Not So Direct to the WASAPI output did fix this issue, though, so I'd suggest looking into that, also because it's the best output you can choose at the moment.
