Listening to only one audio channel on ALT-DVB

remlap · 03-05-07, 02:58 PM

How do I only listen to only one audio channel on ALT-DVB when the audio is Stereo like on Televisia feed on 43w?

Cheers.

Good question. You don't seem to be able to set it in Alt-DVB, so I guess you'll have to do it in your Windows audio control panel.

That's a bit of an omission isn't it?

There is a 'Channel A/B switch' button down in the status bar area of the main screen, but it's greyed out on mine. Don't know what this is for.

Its greyed out on mine too so I am not much help. Mine all needs setting up again as I have just set up a new 3.40 gig pentium 4 and will be doing it over this weekend

Volume Control in Windows does the job in Balance on Wave.

I've finally figured out how to use AB

First right click on the viewing screen select DS Config tick Use "Channel A/B Switch" filter then click Save & Restart button.

Right click on the new highlighted AB and select which channel you wish to use.

Thank God for that!

What a stupid way to organise the config :

Nice one remlap

I might be dumb - answers on a postcard please - but I can't see any reason for wanting only one channel. The separation can be done in the windows or linux operating system. It would be far more useful to give an audio stream selection control.

For Example a football game....

Left Channel: Crowd Noise

Right Channel: Commentary

Stereo: Commentary + Crowd Noise.

Of course it can be done in the Operating System, but that means you have to change it back after closing alt-dvb or changing channels.
