So just to update this thread in case anyone in the future has this problem: as it turns out, my solution was the opposite of what most sources recommend. Turns out, I had to re-install ffdshow (via the CCCP codec pack,) and make sure that it was ENABLED for fallout!

Thanks! I've tried that, and it defineteley seemed to help, but so far nothing seems to had killed the problem entireley. I'm defineteley hearing less of it now that I've done a defrag (and made sure to keep my task manager clear of all other processes besides new vegas and steam,) so it may actually be tied to performance. Musics seems to hiccup and jitter when loading in new music, areas, or other content. Thing is, the game performs fine (always above 30fps,) and I didn't have this problem last year. Since then, the only thing in my computer to change has been the motherboard, and I don't use the motherboard's built-in audio. I use a PCI Audigy SE sound card.

Hey guys! I've been having this weird problem with my music ever since I reinstalled Fallout New Vegas after about half a year of inactivity. The ambient music skips/jitters/pops/stutters. Really bad. This doesn't happen to the radio music during normal gameplay, but does during loading screens. Reinstalling my audio drivers helped a lot, but the music is still skips and jitters when transitioning from one track to the next (ie: going from ambient "explore" music to combat, or entering new locations with different music.) I've had this problem both in the vanilla game and modded. Uninstalling ffdshow hasn't helped. I'm at a loss here, my google research skills are failing me. Does anyone here have any ideas for solutions?
