Audio muted problem

**Tsleon** · 03-27-2005, 12:59 PM

I updated newest version and i have problem with mute. Audio is always muted when i start pc and RR. If i close RR and start again problem doesn't occur. When i restart windows everything works fine. Problem occurs only when i do shutdown and start pc again. Does anybody else have this problem?

never heard of it.. but you can make a mixer preset and have RR load it when starting up if you want.. that would most likely fix your issue..

How are you shutting down the PC ? because I can pretty much tell you straight out tha if RR is "killed" during the shutdown process without propper termination, there is a chance that you'd get the volume muted (if RR doesn't completely terminate)...

Shutdown is done via remote control and girder. Oh well, i have to complete my shutdown controller and start using hibernate

Are you shutting down via RR or Windows?? If Windows, this is possibly why, try doing shutdown direct from RR using Girder.

I use RR shutdown command not windows. I haven't had this problem with earlier versions of RR

. This doesn't happen when i restart windows. Only when i shutdown windows. Maybe resume file is broken or something?

If you're using RR's shutdown option then I'll double check at this..

Similar problem with mine.

When I start from cold I get a Mute message in the bottom right hand side of the screen as Road Runner executes Winamp. Did you ever find a solution to this?

I have also noticed when Win amp starts the balance setting is to one side, although sound comes from both channels!

man, if Winamp is having issues with the volume stuff, than sounds like something is really funky with your sound card or drivers.. I'd try to reinstall them... You can easily put a startup command in RR to Unmuter or Set the volume of any audio line to a specidif number.. but I'd recommend getting it propperly fixed (drivers etc)... btw, my carputer is the ASUS Pundit R as well...

Sometimes I do have issues with the mixer.. if F***s up and everything is set to ZERO, the windows mixer wont open and such... but then I just need to reset... it's somewhat rare though..

Cheers boss,

I've been having some problems with Map Monkey also, when I checked the error messages last night it said audio overflow! I guess you may be right. This weekend I am going to do a complete reinstall of the sound card/drivers and Map monkey to see if I can solve it.

Nice to hear someone else has a Pundit. Have you had many other problems with yours?

Roadrunner is one mighty fine achievement btw. Very impressed!
