View Full Version : Weird Software Audio Mixer Changes

I have been working on writing a .gml for ATI's Multimedia Center. One of the weird anomalies I have been noticing is that my software audio mixer (or Girder) is making changes without me asking for them. Here is a list of some of them:

1) When turning on the TV, it seems as if Girder cycles through every input/output on my mixer and adjusts the level. It takes about 5 sec.

2) I have a macro that mutes the wave every time I change channels. Apparently this also affects the "Record Control" but I never specified this.

3) Whenever I change the TV from full screen to a window or vice versa, the wave volume is set to 60%.

I am not sure why this stuff is happening, maybe it is part of the program I am running (ATI MMC TV). I only have the one .gml file loaded. Anybody know why these unusual audio mixer changes are happening and how I could control this better? Or at least understand whats going on.

Thanks,
Luke

Hi Luke,

There are about 1 million ways that could be happening if the events are hooked up incorrectly. If you upload the GML you are using I can have a look at it.

Ron, thanks for your reply man.

In my last post, I was using the trial version of Girder 4. After a little playing around I found this to be a great program. So I purchased it, bought Girder 5.

Since upgrading my audio issues have changed a bit. Girder doesn't cycle through all audio I/O any more (or if it does, it is not displayed on screen). Now when I alter the volume up or down, I get a graphical looking display in the center of the screen (bar graph like). What I really want is a green bar at the bottom of the screen, showing the percentage of the volume for the active input. Before upgrading to 5, I had it working this way - I don't know how to get back to this state.

Here is the .gml I've been working on: 4043 Do you know how I could change the audio display back to a green bar at the bottom of the screen when changing the volume up or down?

Again, thanks for your help!
