I see the MMC 8.9 drivers are posted on the ATI website.
They don't seem to address any issues I am concerned with, especially
compatibility with Creative Audigy soundcards.
 
From "ATI MULTIMEDIA CENTER™ Version 8.9 Release Notes"

"Using the ATI ALL-IN-WONDER™ with Creative's Audigy family of Cards
The Creative Lab's Audigy family of sound cards has architectural
differences from earlier SoundBlaster products in order to provide enhanced
audio quality. These changes have an impact on how the ATI MULTIMEDIA
CENTER™ works when an ATI ALL-IN-WONDER™ is used with an Audigy card. To
partially address these issues, Creative has made available a special
version of their drivers, which allows the ATI MULTIMEDIA CENTER™ to
function correctly. These drivers are version 250 (or later) of the Audigy
drivers. Please make sure you are using the correct drivers."

How do you get these "special drivers" from Creative?

I am using Audigy 2 with the released drivers from Creative and haven't
experienced any problems with MMC 8.8 and earlier. I have yet to install
MMC 8.9...
 
oh that....jeesh all that was, is to choose "what you hear" in the audio input select window, when the driver complains you select
'line in' from the drop down. Basically that was a simple thing to fix and if the people that complained actually ventured to 'TRY'
a different setting, all would have been fine.

That is not a driver issue IMO that is software incompatibility.
 
This text has been in the release notes for the past few versions of MMC. I
have not yet been able to find these "special" drivers on the Creative
website.
