audio not working

[paul hewett]

trying to set up a panasonic toughbook with windows version of kjams. having trouble with setting the sound card to 44k/16 bit .

can anyone help me with this?

[dave]

did you follow the steps?
<no longer necessary, just update to latest>

or are you on XP or Vista?

what step is not working?

[paul hewett]

i'm on xp. trying to change output to 44/16 bit.

[dave]

huh, well i looked and i don't see a place where that can be set. sorry you'll just have to wait for all the bugs to get squashed, then the first thing i'm doing is making it able to use your system sound setting, instead of requiring 16 bit stereo.

I'm not sure if this applies here but on Win7 there are two options in Audio Settings for Set Default, one for Device and one for Communications Device. Kjams wouldn't play until I set a Default Device(as opposed to Communications device).

[dave]

can you send me a screen shot of that?

[gsteffens]

Sure, np....sent.

[dave]

all i got was a "winmail.dat" file. i need a PNG or JPEG please. i'm on a mac, i only "do windows" for kJams

[gsteffens]

Sorry about that Dave.... I am so used to pasting images into email instead of attaching them. I resent the email with a png attachment this time so hopefully that will work better. Let me know if you need a different snapshot of the audio control panel for demonstration purposes.

[dave]

ah! you are correct, it must be set as "default device", and not "default comm device"

however, all these crazy requirements will disappear today anyway, as i've rewritten the kjams audio driver to simply use whatever device you have selected as your default, using whatever settings you like, rather than forcing you to use 44k 16bit stereo.

coming soon: the ability to select your preferred audio device in the kJams prefs
