 Hi Maik,

 I do see your point, these scrolling warnings slow down FlightGear and 
 are annoying. But I'm more with Erik on this one. These warnings 
 indicate there is a serious problem in how the author configured the 
 sound effects for their model and they are not getting the audio 
 output that they expected. Ideally the aircraft author would fix the 
 sound effects configuration so the results are in the allowable range.

 Curt.
I agree that fixing of the sound-configuration would be the best. But 
this message is not a bug neither critical. The program will continue 
without any trouble. And I would like to have some more messages to be 
removed in the release. It's ok to have all these messages switched on 
in the development, but not in the release. Maybe we can add a new 
--warning-level=devel for all these messages being displayed on the 
console now. Think of msfs. What would the user think, if he would get 
messages like these on the console:

←[36m** FDM initialized **←[m

the airc

None of these messages are necessary for the normal user, but all can 
confuse him.

Hi,

I just got aware, that I am running flightgear with log-level=warn (I 
thought I am using the default setting, thanks to Melchior).
Therefore all (or most of) these messages are not displayed by default.
Sorry for the noise.

[Flightgear-devel] patch: don't warn if a sound is clipped, was Re: For the - Author of Concorde - Continued (Email in Unicode format)

2007-05-28 Thread Maik Justus

Hi,
the enclosed patch would do the thing (but maybe SG_DEBUG would be 
better, it's really only a debug message, the user need not to be warned 
about this).

Please commit.

Hi,

these messages are no real error messages, just warnings, but I think
  

Volume larger than 1.0 in configuration for '***', clipping.

should be at a warning-level, which is not displayed by default, because 
it is not a real error (it is clipped and does not harm).
