I just tried unimix -powerget:-

[H:\MMOS2]unimix -powerget
Command line mixer for UNIAUD. Version 0.05
Copyright 2004,2005 by Netlabs.org
Written by Vlad Stelmahosky aka Vladest
Detected UNIAUD version 1.92
Detected 2 audio adapter(s)
power state: 0

[H:\MMOS2]


If power state: 0 is "Off" why do I have system sounds, audio playback from media players and seamonkey plugins?

Well, it seems my initial guess was wrong - power state 0 might mean "correctly working" or something.

I also notice that you are using a different uniaud to the build you thought you were using:-

Command line mixer for UNIAUD32. Version 1.1
Detected UNIAUD version 2.02.01

I suggest checking that you have the correct \mmos2\dll\uniaud.dll to go with the installed build of uniaud as a mis-match could cause problems.

Have you got a list of mixer controls and checked if the required switches are enabled and volume levels set?

Regards

Thanks Pete. This is strange, because I took everything from the uniaud 1.09.06 package (included unimix and uniaud.dll) and replaced the old ones, just to make sure... I will try some other options before reverting to installing a sound card.

Hi Mentore,

Dave Parsons has just put up on hobbes a PMUniMix that appears to find all the 'missing' inputs and outputs on various boards.  At least on all the machines here that could not play any sounds other than system sounds.  It found 9 controls while the mixer with uniaud only found 2.

Pete:
Hi

Hopefully this new PMunimix will work better for others than it does for me.

PMunimix started fine but when I turned off some settings PMunimix gradually disappeared - as the settings were turned off the app window size was adjusted and the settings  were no longer displayed onscreen.

Initially I was left with Master Volume and Front Speakers but having turned them off to confirm previous results I now do not see the app onscreen - Sorry, I tell a lie, there is a small square of gray/grey onscreen which when I right mouse button and select Maximize turns into PMunimix fullscreen without any available mixer settings at all.

I'm fairly sure this is not working as expected...


Regards

Pete



Dave Yeo:
Hi Pete, Try right clicking on the small square and choosing "Show all controls" or perhaps "Rebuild form".
At the worst try closing it and deleting x:\mmos2\PMUnix.ini.
You might want to report to David Parsons.

When I start PMunimix, on my Lenovo thinkPad T510, the icon is cross hatched, it shows as running, but no window ever appears (I don't see anything else that might be it either). I don't see any error messages, and it can be closed from the window list. UniAud works okay (but the built in speakers are terrible).

Any ideas?
