Subject:	SCOUG-Help: Audio and uniaud

Content Type: text/plain

I installed the full package, then copied the "latest" files into the
correct libraries, overlaying the originals. I haven't looked at the
script files that minstall uses, so I can't say whether your method
would work.

In addition, after installing uniaud, I had trouble getting sound out of
one of my systems. It seems that the built-in sound card on this system
has many more controls than normal, and that the default for many of
them is OFF. To fix this, I used UNIMIX.EXE to list all of the controls
along with the range of values supported. I then wrote unifix.cmd which
invokes unimix for each control and each channel to set the values to
the max. Since the controls vary with each sound chip, I won't post my
version, but it looks something like this:

unimix -id1 -cnt0 -val1
unimix -id1 -cnt1 -val1
unimix -id2 -cnt0 -val31
unimix -id2 -cnt1 -val31
unimix -id3 -cnt0 -val1
...
etc. thru id24 or so. The -idx values identify the control parameter,
the -cntx are usually the A & B channels, and the -valx means either
on/off or some level value.

I then shadowed unifix.cmd in my startup folder so that it runs on every
boot. I realize that this is a shotgun, brute force solution to the
problem, but it works for me. YMMV!
