telejunky 0 Posted March 22, 2009 Hi there, i am happy that i finished my new usb powered LED array. But today one bug(?) really got on my nerves. It feels like Freetrack has got hiccups every 5th-10th second. Sometimes more often... Don't know why and it would be great if there is help outthere First i thought my two 1,2V rech. batteries did not have enough power, but after my move to usb powered LEDs it is still there. I am using 3 infared usb powered LEDs (powered by 2 AA batteries) with a Wii remote - tried with 1,5 batteries and 1,2V - usb powered led -> the leds are constantly shining they can't be the cause -no difference between 1,2 and 1,5V in the Wii remote http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/4788/bild136q.jpg -I'm using a mirror construction because there is no much space left behind my screen. Then i thought it could be the double reflection of close objects of a mirror and its glas. But mep it isn't the cause, too. So what can i try to eliminate those hiccups without reinstalling the whole pc :-/ if this would help the work would have been worth... I already reinstalled FT. Maybe these informations are helpful: -My Jitter is about 30-50 jps. - Sometimes the fps of the wii drops down to 30 for a second. But when i press alt and tab for looking after FT the fps is still better then 93 fps... - When I start Armed Assault and press ALT+TAB to change the profile from default to my ArmA-profile the skull rapidly moves up and down. after clickinig on my personal profile, the skull moves smoove... -> Tomorrow, i try to use completely new batteries and look again, but i don't think it is the solution. Here a video demonstrating these hiccups arrgh^^ it is one of the harder times where the hiccups are permanently recurrend. 4,5 MB http://rapidshare.com/files/210876486/Video023.3gp It is filmed with my Nokia. I identified maybe a driver problem. If i try to capture a video using fraps there is no hiccup... here another one with slightly less hiccups http://rapidshare.com/files/210882978/Video019.3gp Is this problem related to ATI's catalyst driver? Or desync between real fps and headtracking fps?!? What do you say Thanks for reading My rig: AMD 4850e 4GB DDR2 X1950Pro Catalyst 9.1 XP Pro It seems to be only in Armed Assault in insurgency there are no hiccups.
