Mixer not working with M-Audio Revolution 5.1 ?

can anyone tell me if the latest version of Mixer works with the M-Audio Revo 5.1 PCI card? Was working great in my old Samflex@800 but no luck in my X1000.

here's my ToolTypes info:

DONOTWAIT
(CX_PRIORITY=0)
(CX_POPUP=YES)
(CX_POPKEY=alt f10)
(IMAGEPATH=Images)
(NO_VIA)
(POPWINDOW)
(POPWINDOWLEFTEDGE=920)
(POPWINDOWTOPEDGE=500)
(POPWINDOWDELAY=70)
(STEPSIZE=5)

Does the card actually work? (ignoring mixer for the moment). I suppose you want it for recording while Lyle's still working on that for the onboard sound?

TBH I've not used mixer for years, only tried it this year for the wildly inaccurate eye candy keyboard controlled volume thing

card works great & as far as i know mixer doesn't support the X1000 onboard sound chip yet?

Severin : ho, what an aggresive remark about OSDLauncher...

It is very inacurate though. doesn't need to be as the mixer arexx commands support setting the volume exactly. instead of 'set the volume at about 40%' and saving then run it and slowly adjust the volume up and down all the way a few times and it's images are way out of sync with the actual volume setting.

I have modified the scripts to adjust accurately but OSDLauncher needs modifying a little to use them (I offered them in the news item the day it was released).

for example:


/* Mixer Volume Up by HunoPPC 2013 */
options results

if(Show('P',MIXER)=0)
then do
ADDRESS COMMAND 'WBrun APPDIR:MIXER'
ADDRESS COMMAND 'WaitForPort MIXER 30'
end

if(Show('P',MIXER)=1)
then do

ADDRESS MIXER

GETMASTER
vol=rc2%10
IF vol <= 9 THEN vol=vol+1
SETMASTER vol*10

ADDRESS COMMAND 'run >NIL: OSDLauncher --soundvol+'
/*
/* new command would be: */
option = "--soundvol " || vol
ADDRESS COMMAND 'run >NIL: OSDLauncher 'option''
*/
end

Correct it does not support it as it acesses the chip directly instead of through AHI so would need a rewrite to get it working.

so any idea why mixer has no effect with my perfectly fine my M-Audio Rev card ?

And since we did not have the time to answer about this specificic topic, you decided to be rude about Huno's work ? Weird behaviour.

Huno is prepapring exams at the moment and has not much time to work on his projects. If you can do better, go, but please show some respect to those who are actually creating things, it's the least we should do.

When the Sam460 onboard sound driver was released, a new version of Mixer was released to support it. Maybe you card is not supported by Mixer.

@K-L

"wildly innacurate" isn't meant to be rude, it's a description of the problem with the program. I suppose I could have used very, highly, incredibly or unbelievably instead of wildly but certainly not slightly, vaguely, a little etc.

During my tests I had the volume muted yet the OSD showed full volume. To me that is wildly innacurate. I know Huno is busy and hasn't any time for his projects for many months. I'm not disrespecting him, just mentioning the last time I used mixer and what for along with the reason I stopped using it. Could have been phresed batter but I was having a really crap day and didn't bother to choose my words carefully enough.

I haven't kept up with mixer developments, but I didn't think it supported Envt24-HT based cards? And isn't MAudio one of those?

actually the exact same card was working fine in my old Samflex@800 so mixer does support it.

I believe it audio systems job of controlling the volume, AHI should provide the low level support for setting and reading the master volume, I really don't understand way DaveAE decided to move this into mixer.

Anyway the whole audio system needs to be reviewed and some goals have to be set, so Hyperion developer have a target they can work towards.
