noner - Could You explain how to configure Virtual Audio Cable to work with XBMC Frodo? - I need all sounds from XBMC to be simultaneously played to my sound system via SPDIF and to my headphone via analogue (mini jack).
Its quite simple actually, once you read through the included help file.
1. Create an audio cable using the software (one actually gets created when you install, I just used that)
2. There is a program called "repeater" included in the folder, start two (or more than two if you want audio on more than two outputs) instances of the repeater.
3. Connect the repeater (through the drop down list) input as the virtual cable (from step 1) to an audio output device
4. Set the virtual cable (from step 1) as the default output in Windows
For system reboots, you can create a very simple batch file and put it into the system start folder to start the repeaters automatically minimized when the system starts.
As an example, one of my repeaters is going to my TV over HDMI, so I created a batch file with this in it
Code:
start /min "audiorepeater" "%programfiles%\Virtual Audio Cable\audiorepeater.exe" /Input: "Line 1 (Virtual Audio Cable)" /Output: "TOSHIBA-TV (Intel(R) Display Au" /BufferMs:100 /SamplingRate:48000 /Autostart
The second repeater outputs to my headphones over a bluetooth dongle, created another batch file with this in it:
Code:
start /min "audiorepeater" "%programfiles%\Virtual Audio Cable\audiorepeater.exe" /Input: "Line 1 (Virtual Audio Cable)" /Output: "Speakers.Logitech (Logitech Wir" /BufferMs:100 /SamplingRate:48000 /Autostart
Put both batch files in Start > All Programs > Startup
Set it up once, and forget it is even there. Audio works over multiple outputs.
Sorry, just add that Input and Output would be different depending on what they are called on your system... when you start an instance of the repeater, you can see what the names are in the drop down list, just use that in the batch file
