WDM: No Sound output from other windows applications
« on: August 30, 2015, 09:26:08 am »

Windows 7 64bit.  MC output: HDMI.  Windows defualt: JRiver Media Centre 21

Output from JRiver fine.  But no SOUND from other apps (windows sounds, Msoft WMC, Spotify etc.)

Although apps indcate sound plaback see screenshot.

Any ideas?

Please re-read the WDM setup instructions carefully.  I don't think it's set up correctly.

Many thanks for prompt reply on a Sunday Jim.

It was set up for exclusive use. Unticked > saved> closed WMC > reboot pc> still no audible output from other apps, though their displays indicate a signal is being output?

Hi

Just in case you missed this, if you are running the wdm driver it should, IMO, be set to default. However you must have at least media server running. If you want to control the volume with a remote control you have to also have the UI up as a control.  Either or both can be set to run at windows boot through options startup. You might have to set a zoneswitch rule or toggle the zone for the driver depending on your config.
