What is the best way to mute line in via a script?

**12Vsystems** · 03-23-2006, 05:15 PM

I am setting up a security camera in my car and I want to add sound input .

If I leave the mic input unmuted I get a low hum on the line that I haven't been able to eliminate using filters, or power supplys.

What I want to do is make two autoit scripts. The first would unmute MIC IN the second would mute MIC again.

The only thing I can find in autoit is

SoundSetWaveVolume(50)

Any suggestions?

Does it have to be Autoit? I know how to do it in C, but not Autoit.

I wrote a little app if you are still having trouble with the mic thing. It’s a small exe that will Mute and UnMute the default MIC depending on the command line params passed to it.

Parm
-on will Mute the Mic
-off will UnMute the Mic

If there is no parameters passed in it will just toggle the current state to off or on. You could just have your script run my program if needed. PM me if you want the app.
