Why do you want to mute all other apps but yours? What does your app do? In Windows 7 you can use the "ducking" feature to attenuate (not mute) other apps while allowing your app to remain at full volume http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd940517(VS.85).aspx From: wdmaudiodev-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:wdmaudiodev-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of FabWar(r) Sent: Tuesday, November 23, 2010 7:26 PM To: wdmaudiodev@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [wdmaudiodev] Re: Win7 mixer Thanks Matthew , BTW, if I used (IAudioEndpointVolume::SetMute) to mute all application was it mute the master volume.
