Rocksmith Crashes Youtube/Netflix?

[Pleads]

I've got two monitors and wanted to see if I could futz around with Rocksmith while streaming some West Wing on another monitor. If I have Netflix or Youtube running on one screen, and open Rocksmith (windowed) on the other, whenever Rocksmith gets focus it causes the streaming service to crash. Netflix throws error M7361-1253 which references network connectivity, and the YouTube player just goes black.

Anyone ever encounter the same issue, and if so are there any fixes?

Netfilx and iTunes work for me. Do this all the time on the other monitor.

It's due to audio exclusivity. I think you will have to run them on separate audio drivers/devices. If you want to actually learn though, you shouldn't be doing this.

That makes sense, thanks!

Yeah I don't have anything in the background when doing lessons and such, but thought it would kill two birds with one stone to watch my stories with a guitar in my hands to help build calluses and muscle memory.

Turning off exclusive audio fixed everything, thanks everyone!
