I changed the way the volume works -- I'm using the same code that the normal soundcard uses to control volume. Can both of you mess with the volume slider and see if adjusting it will help? Does the soundcard volume work ok? I just loaded up the 2.0.5 release and select the DSound plugin. I get no sound whatsoever, the volume bar is locked at 100 and i can't move it at all. If I try to move the seek bar, it keeps resetting to the beginning and starts playing again. Never have I heard a single note from the sound. Different system this time: Dell Dimension XPS R400 256M RAM 400 P2 Windows NT 4.0 SP5 CrystalWare Built-in Audio (and the driver is from Dell website) DirectX 3.0 mike ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.freeamp.org/mailman/listinfo/freeamp-dev
RE: DiskOut Output Plugin v0.0.1
More bad news. FreeAmp did not close after I clicked the [x]. It disappears, but it still shown as running in Task Manager, so I have to do an End Task to get rid of it. This was simular to what happened to me when I ran WinNT4.0 SB Live! at home, so it maybe related to the drivers to, but I never have had a problem with the regular audio plugin, so it really has to be related to the dsound plugin. mike ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.freeamp.org/mailman/listinfo/freeamp-dev

I've seen this happen before but I can't reproduce it on a consistent basis. People have been reporting various problems with regards to the DirectSound plugin -- I don't know much about DirectSound so I don't know what's wrong.

Re: DiskOut Output Plugin v0.0.1
I downloaded and massaged your code for a while. Its now checked in CVS. * How to I display a customize dialog from the preferences page when I select my plugin? You don't. We need to implement something like that. * When the plugin is outputting the data, the time counter on the main window does not count down. Where is the code that makes this happen at? Could I have messed something up that causes it not to count anymore? Yeah, but its all fixed now. It doesn't show the time for every second, but for every 10 seconds... Any comments/improvements are welcome. I think I have the time calculation messed up a bit because I used WinAmps disk outputter as a test, and none of my output files matched in time or file size, so I still have a bit of work to go, but at least I have a start I reckon. Everything sounds and looks good to me. Thanks for doing this -- you saved me quite a bit of time! --ruaok Freezerburn!

Good deal Mr. Mayhem Chaos Coord because I was sure running low on time due to apartment searching and moving that I have coming up in a few weeks. I'll pull down the cvs so I can take a peek at the updated code. mike ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.freeamp.org/mailman/listinfo/freeamp-dev
RE: DiskOut Output Plugin v0.0.1
Ok, I'm in the process of porting it to Linux, so expect more changes. :-) Speaking of Linux, I hope to get my a Alpha Personal Workstation after I get moved into my new place, so my current AlphaStation will probably be a fulltime AlphaLinux, or maybe AlphaFreeBSD once I can learn the systems. I've managed to compile FreeAmp on AlphaLinux one time, but I didn't know where it put all my files, and even worse I didn't know how to enable the sound to actually test it with. Hopefully in the future I can help on this part more.

Re: DiskOut Output Plugin v0.0.1
right now there is not a way for plugins to have their own prefs dynamically displayed in the pref dialog. that is something we plan on figuring out for 3.0. i can't answer the time stuff, Rob? i think saving the file to the same directory as the source file is the best solution right now. elrod Michael Rich wrote: http://redrival.com/alphax86dev/downloads/diskout-0.0.1.zip This is a zip archive of the source code I'm currently working with. It works in a minimal fashion currently. For lack of a custom dialog to select where the files go, it simply take the input file, tacks a ! onto the end of the filename, and then changes the extension to wav, and writes it to the same directory as the original file. Some questions: * How to I display a customize dialog from the preferences page when I select my plugin? * When the plugin is outputting the data, the time counter on the main window does not count down.

Re: DiskOut Output Plugin v0.0.1
i can't answer the time stuff, Rob? In each PMO, there is a function called: void HandleTimeInfoEvent(PMOTimeInfoEvent *pEvent); Check this function out -- it sends the time info to the player. These functions are complicated by the fact that they need to be accurate and that the user can seek. Your case is a lot simpler -- just figure out how many samples you've written and convert that to HH:MM:SS and send the event to the player as the other HandleTimeInfoEvent functions do... Let me know if you need more info than that. i think saving the file to the same directory as the source file is the best solution right now. Actually, we had decided that we wanted to save the wav files into a WAV subdirectory of the users' MyMusic directory. To do that, simply call Error GetSaveMusicDirectory(char* path, uint32* len); on the preference object. A pointer to the prefs object is in the context object, which each modules has. So, m_context-prefs-GetSaveMusicDirectory(...) would get the music dir. Append a 'WAV' and you've got your save place. Also, the output plugin should be careful to not overwrite existing files -- it should append a -2, -3, .., to the filename base. --ruaok Freezerburn!
