There are two buffers that are important to WDM performance:

Because the WDM Driver is re-routing sound in real time, it is more sensitive to buffering settings than normal audio playback. Troubleshooting Common Issues Clicks, Pops, and StaticĬlicks, pops, and static are typically caused by buffer underruns.
This re-routes the audio through Media Center's DSP stack to whatever output device you have selected as an audio output in Media Center. Now whenever system audio plays (from web browsers, apps, windows sounds, or video games) it will play to the JRiver Media Center driver. Note: If JRiver doesn't show up as a Windows Device in Control Panel > Sounds > Playback, try disabling it in MC General > Features. Because the WDM Driver is now the system default, setting Media Center to output to the system default just creates a closed loop. Make sure that, in Media Center, your setting under Options->Audio->Audio Device is not "Default Audio Device." You need to set your audio device to whatever your actual physical output device is.Select the one labelled JRiver Media Center 20 and click the Set Default button at the bottom of the menu as shown to the right. You should see all of the Audio devices on your system listed. Once the driver is installed, go to the windows control panel, and then to the Sound menu item.Then restart Media Center and the driver will install.
To enable it go to Options->General->Features and check WDM Driver. If there is an issue restore the library that you backed up from the older computer.In versions of Media Center after 20.0.95 the WDM driver is disabled by default.

Be sure to make any other changes you need for the hardware of and connected to the older PC as well. If the difference in gapless playback is due to an incorrect setting in the older PC, which is ok in the newer PC, the above should fix the situation. Once this is done, go to Options>Media Network and generate a new access key for the older computer. You library and playlists of the older computer should remain untouched. When you restore it this way, all the settings from the newer computer will be copied to the MC installation of the older computer. UNCHECK the "Restore library and playlists" option, but keep the settings option. On the older computer go to "restore library" and select the library file from the NAS that you saved. On the older computer, back up the current library to a local directory. Save the library to the NAS if both computers have access to it. Sound quality is not issue, just the gapless playback.
New computer is on a KVM switch on the same router and peripherals. Clearly, there is an issue that is related to the local computer and would appear to a JRiver setting even though I have set everything I could find to gapless. I would prefer to run JRiver from the older computer (now also upgraded to MC 24) because I have a lot of music stored locally that I would rather not transfer at this time. In the meantime, MC24 came out and I installed it on a newer computer that has access to my NAS drive and it plays gapless fine and just required a few easy tweaks to the default settings. I used an alternative (Roon) on the same computer, router, etc. Trying to solve the problem, I did make changes to mirror the settings as closely as possible recommended by my Digital Audio Player (DAC built in) manufacturer, Cary Audio (DMS-500). I did not think I changed any settings, but perhaps accidentally. I did post when the problem first revealed itself that my system that was playing gapless without fail was no longer doing so (went 100% to 0%) and received no replies.
