I just installed WaveInput 1.05 on Server 7.4.1 running on XP on a Dell
desktop system. This is my first time trying WaveInput.

The bad news: There was no "Stereo Mix" source, even after I updated
the Sigmatel driver as suggested on
http://www.ekhoury.com/2006/08/25/sigmatel-stereo-mix-support-for-dells/.

The good news: I decided to use the "Line In" source and try playing
WaveInput anyway (creating a WaveInput entry in Favorites). Lo and
behold, it worked!

The bad news: The volume was pretty low (i.e., I had to turn my
stereo's volume significantly higher than normal, which makes me
nervous, and yes, every PC volume control I could find was on max) and
there was a delay of nearly 5 seconds.

The good news: Updating the driver increased the volume on my PC itself
enough that I am no longer desperate to get the sound out of my stereo.
But I guess I need to play with buffering if I want to use WaveInput; 5
seconds sounds longer than most people have encountered, but I haven't
tried adjusting buffering at all. Not sure what to do about the volume.

I'd welcome any tips. Thanks for creating this plug-in.
