I have a Chaintech AV710 and a Gilmore Lite. I've been trying over the past couple days to get kernel streaming to work with foobar but I keep getting this error message

"Unrecoverable playback error: KS output error: error opening device"

I'm pretty sure I have the latest drivers for the 710 (version 5.12.01.3650) but I think I'm missing something or doing something wrong. Anyone have any ideas as to why foobar keeps giving me this error?

i was having same problems with my AV710. I gave it up and put my SB Live! 5.1 back in.

It definitely works - though I don't use windows anymore so I don't remember exactly which settings/driver. You may have to play with output settings in foobar, try setting the card to 32 bits (or 16 padded to 32).

Also check the output sampling rate in the control panel. If it's locked to 96Khz (for instance) then anything coming out of foobar2000 that's not that will give you that error.

Set the "Output Format" to 16-bit or 32-bit. 24-bit will give the error noted.

This guide and the links in the guide helped me get mine set up no problem.

You could also try ASIO4all, which is also mentioned in these guides.

I don't want to sound stupid, but I don't think my driver version allows me to do this or I think that there is something wrong with the way it was installed. Whenever I click on "Envy Audio Dock" in the control panel, a window pops up that says "Error: RegQueryValueEx."

Moreover, when I open up Audio Deck from the task bar and uncheck the box that says "Enable High - Sample Rate(966KHz)," foobar still gives me the same error message. Also, changing the output in foobar to 16 bit or 32 bit does not help the problem

AFAIK the latest VIA drivers for XP are version 5.12.01.3610.

I would try to fix the error "Error: RegQueryValueEx". This suggests there is a registry problem in the VIA section. Maybe a missing key or some bad security issues.

I would uninstall the drivers and manually clean the registry under
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VIA]
or wherever you think the RegQuery was having problems. Then reinstall the drivers and see if the Envy Audio Dock works properly.

Sorry I can't be more help, my VIA chip is on a M-Audio card.

Thanks a lot guys, I finally got it to work!
It seems I was never able to fully install/run Audiodeck because of my registry problem. After uninstalling everything and deleting files in the registry, I was able to successfully reinstall and run with KS! Once, again, thanks for all the help!
