QuickTime and iTunes often default to using Direct Sound, which leads to sound distortion during both recording and playback when Replay Radio is active. To correct this problem, you need to tell QuickTime to use the Replay Radio driver as the default playback device instead.

For QuickTime Version 7:

1. Make sure Replay Radio, Replay Music and iTunes are closed.

2. Open QuickTime via Start, Programs, QuickTime, QuickTime Player.

3. Select Edit, Preferences, QuickTime Preferences.

4. Go to the tab marked Audio.

5. Verify that Safe mode (waveOut only) is selected.

6. Click the Select Audio Playback and Recording Devices button to open your windows audio control panel. Set both devices to match the name of your sound card. Click OK.

7. Click OK in the Quick Time settings, then close QuickTime.

For QuickTime Version 6:

1. Make sure QuickTime and iTunes are closed.

2. Open QuickTime via Start, Programs, QuickTime, QuickTime Player.

3. Select Edit, Preferences, QuickTime Preferences.

4. In the dialog that appears, select Sound Out from the list at the top.

5. Pick waveOut: Windows Preferred Device. Your settings window should now look like this:
   
   
   
   

6. Close the settings window and you're done.
