Set an Audio Device
« on: December 02, 2017, 12:49:13 PM »
Using xSchedule, is there a way to select an audio output device for that application only? What my thought is that I can use a USB audio jack and plug the FM transmitter into it. then when xSchedule runs that audio can output to it only. But if using other applications at the same time, their audio can come out the desktop speakers and not go to the FM transmitter.
Im using Win 10 if that makes a difference

There is no way within XLights or xschedule to tell it what audio device to use. Maybe you can do that within the os.

Hello Keith
I see in the latest update (.41) you have added the ability to select an audio output device. How should it work? On my screen the box is always grey. I can drop down the list and select the device I want, but when I play a step manually the sound still comes out the default device. Is there a set of steps I need to take to get this to work?

 I had downloaded a program the allows me to select the device but I would much rather use xSchedule to do this if I can

Thank you so much for this additional feature.
