From the linked text... OpenAL is useful mostly for games and multimedia where you want 3D positional audio to be rendered in a realistic fashion. Some soundcards provide various speakers to do so, others use special filters to simulate the direction where the sound comes from. The latter works specially good using headphones. OpenAL is like DirectSound3D and EAX but cross platform. Q: what is an alternative strategy if OpenAL is so "useless" ? --markc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials.
