Hi, Thanks. I have few questions : 1. How to reroute the audio from virtual audio driver to a physical audio device? Is there any registration or something required to be done here for that specific audio device? 2. If I succeed in rerouting the audio, I still need to register my custom sAPO for system effects. Is there any workaround to register sAPO to Wave-Cyclic Driver which does not have any FxProperties? Also, as suggested by some replies in this thread, Microsoft AEVAD cannot be used to create a virtual driver. Again, any pointer to an alternate/better approach will also be helpful. Thanks and Regards, Vinayak S ________________________________ From: M'handBoughias <mhand@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: wdmaudiodev@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, October 8, 2012 7:19 PM Subject: [wdmaudiodev] Re: (no subject) Hi, You cannot hear anything because the VAD is not linked to any hardware audio device. You need to reroute the audio from the VAD to a physical audio device. I am not sure about this, but I think that we cannot add FxProperties to this MSVAD because it is a WaveCyclic Driver. Perhaps It would be possible with the new sample from Microsoft AEVAD ( http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowshardware/audio-engine-virtual-audio-174876a3 ;), which is a WaveRT Driver. Best, M'hand.
