Hi. Tried that already, I wonder if it's some kind of weird thing going on between Winamp and his sound card, he's using a realtech card, it says high definition audio and he's using Windows Vista home premium. I don't have Vista so I don't have a system to test this out on. Clearly, something is going wrong between his sound card and Winamp.
I can't figure out what could cause this to happen. At 01:34 PM 11/6/2008, you wrote:
Weird, how about trying a full uninstall and reinstall of winamp? Maybe ther'es something wrong with the plugin itself?

To me this defies logic since in every other situation a mic can be used, it works just fine and his mic can be heard perfectly.Does anyone else have any thoughts here? I've posted this to the pc- audio list as well and have received no responses whatsoever.I tried very hard to explain the problem but either nobody knows a sollution or they choose not to answer for whatever reason. I just hope I can help this guy, because for a while he was able to broadcast perfectly, and then just like that, he couldn't and it's driving us crazy. Thanks.

A sighted person has to watch closely. Then you might have to play around with the mike in that area of winamp! Just a thought! I hope I explained it right! This is almost hard for Jaws to see it! You can do it. but it's tricky. My room mate has this problem. It's better to have a sighted friend help you with that. It does get frustrating if you do this yourselves. Chris, Just ask your friend or whoever you are helping with this situation explain to his sighted friend and maybe he can fiddle with that recording situation!

He's able to use his mic in all kinds of situations like sending voice clips over Windows Live Messenger, he can record using recording programs, basically the mic he has works just fine. However when he uses Winamp, and the line recording plugin to broadcast, his mic goes mute and he can't be heard at all. He's using a realtech card, it says high definition audio, so I'm willing to bet that's onboard sound. Is it possible that his mic could be muted, but only when the line recording plugin is being used? I'm familiar with the windows XP and 9x series of the volume controls, like you can have things muted in playback but not in recording. Is there a setting he needs to look at or change so he can get this to work. Like I say, his mic works beautifully in all kinds of other situations accept with the line recording plugin. When he uses it, the Winamp title bar says line recording just as it should but no audio. It's frustrating as you can imagine. Any ideas would be really helpful! Thanks folks.
