Hi WAMUGers,
Since having my new G4 1.67GHz 17" PowerBook OSX10.4.4 I've been
experiencing Audio 'stutter/replay' problem in iChatAV 3.1.1 with my
sister who has in a G4 933MHz 14" iBook OSX10.4.4
I have never experienced Audio problems using iChat before.
I thought 'maybe' my PowerBook having a faster processor speed than
my sister's iBook?
My Internet account is 512k/128k my sister's is 256k/64k, but this
has never caused any problems before.
I did as suggested in Apple Discussions & opened extra Ports in my
Firewall .... made no difference.
Searching around for reasons why, I came across these articles below,
but I don't have any problems listening to iTunes music, only iChat
Audio.

"A group of PowerBook owners are crying out to Apple, hoping the
company will answer their pleas with a solution to an audio defect in
its 12-, 15-, and 17-inch PowerBook models. According to the website,
the problem manifests randomly in Mac OS X as a looping/echo sound
that magnifies itself for approximately 4-5 seconds, apparently
stemming from Apple's internal hardware, as some PowerBook owners
report that the problem disappears when they connect an external
sound card to the laptop."
Are any other WAMUGers with the New G4 PowerBooks experiencing
anything similar?
Any ideas on what would be causing this would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Ronni
