Audio Properties


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know where I can change the recording control from "Microphone" to "Wave" easily? Without opening up the actual audio properties exe?

I'm not sure, but maybe you can find a key in the registry and have it regwrite it

Just a guess

Well, yeah, exactly, but what key?--that's what I'm asking :P

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Volume Control\Your sound cards name\Volume Control

LineStates

problem is LineStates is binary and your cards name is part of the path

this looks like same thing but no card name but still binary

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Multimedia\Audio\VolumeControl

LineStates

nope they're here

problem is the clsid will be different for every card

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceClasses\{6994AD04-93EF-11D0-A3CC-00A0C9223196}\##?#PCI#VEN_1106&DEV_3059&SUBSYS_80B01043&REV_60#3&61AAA01&0&8D#{6994ad04-93ef-11d0-a3cc-00a0c9223196}\#Wave\Device Parameters\Mixer\0\Controls\0]

I found some things, but nothing conclusive. Is there any way to take a snap-shot of my registry, change my recording device, and then come back to see which values have changed?

I use

VolumeLine

Can you share code to use its output?

Example:

VolumeLine version 1.0 (c) 2002 by Slava Glory, Omsk, Russia
------------------------------------------------------------
[mixer:0] SoundMAX Digital Audio
    [group:0] Controllo volume
        [control:-1] Master Volume    volume: 75%  mute:off
        [control: 0] Wave              volume:100%  mute:off
        [control: 1] Sintetizzatore SW  volume:100%  mute:off
        [control: 2] BassBoost        volume: 18%  mute:off
        [control: 3] Lettore CD      volume: 25%  mute:off
        [control: 4] Microfono        volume: 75%  mute:off
        [control: 5] Aux                volume: 23%  mute:off
        [control: 6] Linea in ingresso  volume: 23%  mute:off
        [control: 7] Phone            volume: 23%  mute:off
        [control: 8] Mono Out          volume: 23%  mute:off
        [control: 9] Wave              volume:  0%  mute:on
    [group:1] Controllo registrazione
        [control: 0] Lettore CD      volume: 23%  select:off
        [control: 1] Microfono        volume: 30%  select:off
        [control: 2] Aux                volume: 23%  select:off
        [control: 3] Linea in ingresso  volume: 47%  select:off
        [control: 4] Phone            volume: 10%  select:on
        [control: 5] Mono Out          volume: 10%  select:off
        [control: 6] Mix wave in uscita volume:  8%  select:off

How to set volume level for control contained in a line that contain "phone" and "select" strings? In other words: how can I match "[control: 4] Phone volume: 10% select:on" line and use it for the next command VolumeLine.exe SET:<MixerId>:<GroupId>:<ControlId> VOLUME:<0-100> ?

Yes it is true, the programme is great but I am also unable to find the exact code to bring this programme to work. I have tried all the possible combinations but programme always gives error.

Can someone please post an example how to get this programme running?

Can someone please post an example how to get this programme running?

Sure.

My script:

- searches for all microphone devices;

- set to max recording (not playback) volume;

- select the first found as active recording device;

Limitation:

- searching is string based, so... check it. It should work on english, italian, german and swedish PCs.

- I guess it doesn't work on Vista (can anyone test it and fix/feedback?)

Comments:

AutoIT lacks those audio settings capability, and neither Volly's audio.au3 UDFs can do it. I hope developers like that request, so that AutoIT will do it natively.

Volumeline tool attached (it seems to be disappeared from the net).

Thanks for the Program.

To Vista: No this won´t work because vista sets the volume of every program on its own.

Everything that happens is that Volumeline appears for a second in the SoundOptions and dissapears again after setting any soundoption.

This tool is not realy needed because this can be done by DLLCalls - but as i am not able to get it to work for input, even knowing it works (because i run across the "MONO MIX INPUT" and was able to change it). I have to use it until someone finds out how to DLLCall inputlines via winmm.dll
