This is the first I've heard of this issue, and I'm unable to reproduce it with recent builds. Does sndrec32.exe (copied from an XP machine) work? KSNODETYPE_PERSONAL_MICROPHONE is in the list, but hidden behind a #define. From ksmedia.h (Vista version): #define KSNODETYPE_HEADSET_MICROPHONE KSNODETYPE_PERSONAL_MICROPHONE #define KSNODETYPE_HEADSET_SPEAKERS KSNODETYPE_COMMUNICATION_SPEAKER Regards, Mitch Rundle Microsoft Corporation This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. -----Original Message----- From: wdmaudiodev-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:wdmaudiodev-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Sam Tertzakian Sent: Saturday, September 16, 2006 2:24 PM To: wdmaudiodev@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [wdmaudiodev] Re: vista: not appearing as system audio device Hi, When I choose KSNODETYE_PERSONAL_MICROPHONE, SoundRecorder (the Vista equivalent, that is) fails to open for the device. I noticed that on many previous versions of Vista. Has that been fixed? Also, I don't see KSNODETYPE_PERSONAL_MICROPHONE in the list below...Is there a reason for that? -----Original Message----- From: wdmaudiodev-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:wdmaudiodev-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jeff Pages Sent: Saturday, September 16, 2006 2:20 PM To: wdmaudiodev@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [wdmaudiodev] Re: vista: not appearing as system audio device Agh!
