    Lots of people here saying Stern wouldn't meet their time commitment and general Debbie downers. While it may not be 100% every Spike board ever and error free (my High Speed schematic still has errors BTW) it shows effort and they did a large amount of work to release this by the time they said they would. I give them credit for that.

    Quoted from Kevlar:

    To answer my own question above, just replacing D9 wasn't going to do it. I just removed D9 after obtaining a replacement but on closer inspection there's further damage to the board beyond my capabilities to repair, a little square thing U9 looks blown. The board has to be replaced at my cost, it's barely more than a year old. The spike system is shit, no more Sterns for me!.

    Try to send Borygard a PM. He may be able to fix it.

    Quoted from northvibe:

    I figured I'd bring this up incase anyone has fixed it.
    I have a Munsters pro with the audio popping and now after a 1.03 update (from 1.02) ZERO game audio/sound. Game is probably just shy of warranty and so the cpu replacement is a maybe. Has anyone replaced/tested the audio dac/circuit and fix this issue?
    If they warranty the board, I assume they'll want the old one shipped back :/ I'd be curious to replace the parts and see.
    Any who Stern's spike system is just a modified/custom IMX6 dev board. I find that interesting. We used a few imx6 and imx8 kits. Very capable cpu's. I'm very curious why they didn't have a hdmi out though, as that is pretty standard, maybe they didn't think streaming would get big when designing theirs.

    I know DeadFlip does direct HDMI capture for his streams. Not sure how he does it. Maybe Jack can share?

    Have you contacted Borygard ? He may be able to fix.
