[hxclidev] uncompressed audio (WAV file) support?
Eric Hyche ehyche at real.comThe only thing else I can think of is to delete your prefs file (which should be in $HOME/.helix, I think). It could be that the prefs are messed up. Also, I spoke to folks internally about making the PCM renderer public, and they were completely behind it. So hopefully it will go public within the next week, and this problem will be moot.
