You could try running these: https://github.com/zotz/drradioutils/tree/master/radiutils and see if you get any reports of carts or cuts with audio issues. Careful, may eat your homework. I don't really expect it too (it has not eaten mine yet) but it has not been extensively tested. Backup your work and take what chances you are willing to stand behind. Don't look to me. all the best, drew sorry if this comes through twice, I sent the first from an incorrect address and don't expect it to get through. > > Catching the crashlog doesn't give much clue to the problem > unfortunately.
