Choosing audio output device with win32 waveout extention

[Konti]

With directx audio output you can select a secondary output device.
Can this also be implemented for the win32 waveout extention?

Directx output gives me problems with spdif. Stuttering sound.

See my post in the vlc mediaplayer for windows forum for more information.

viewtopic.php?p=89560#89560

Developers, may I add this as a ticket? I am going to make a bug ticket. And a feature request.

1. bug: Stuttering sound with directx and Digital sound out (s/pdif). Directx output in mpc works flawless.

2. feature request: Choose output device within win32 waveout extention.

Thank you vlc_help

There aren't any Windows Devs on VLC project ATM. So it may take some time.

Hi,

finally we did it. If you want to try it out - download a nightly build (from 3. March or later) .
But be aware 0.9 is still not ready - so other bugs may hit you.

Wish I could test but can't now.

I requested something a while back but forgot to make a ticket. I was wondering if it's possible to make VLC automatically switch to Win32 waveOut extension output when a Dolby Digital or DST signal is detected and then switch back to DirectX Audio output when they're not detected. I found that Media Player Classic has this ability.

Hi,

why you can't use waveout for all kinds of audio?

What can DirectX do better than Waveout?

Win32 waveOut is the older way of addressing things and generates some other complications, volume adjustments is one of them. Besides the audio seems a bit crisper with DirectX audio.
