Audio playback in Houdini 14 is really choppy for me. It works fine in Houdini 13. I have enabled the realtime toggle.

Is this a known issue?

(I'm running OSX 10.9.5, nMP)

I find Audio only works if you set it to Scrub. Oddly Real-Time does not work in real-time. I guess they have the code backwards in the dialog or something?

If I put it into Scrub mode in the Audio Panel and set the Rate to 10 then I get better playback, it's still glitchy. Strangely this works when you switch back to Realtime.

The playback is slightly improved if I go to Global Animation Options and tick ‘Maintain realtime playback, possibly skipping frames’

I'm still having audio playback issues.

I have files that operate fine in v13 but barely operate in v14. (very very slow/glitchy) Especially when processing audio in Chops.

I'm thinking that it may be a problem with my setup as judging from the lack of response other users aren't having the same issues.

Any suggestions on how to rectify this issue would be gratefully received.

If you have files that are demonstrably worst in H14 than H13, it might be worthwhile submitting as a bug.

I just figured out that I also have your problem with v14, running on OS X 10.10.2, and I don't think is related to my setup anyway.


Did you submitted it as a bug? or did you solved it?
