Choose audio device #34

Hello, thank you all kindly who are working on this program. I couldn't do without it any more.

Would you consider adding the option to choose the audio device for people who have multiple in their PCs and the standard device is not the one where spdif-ka is needed? That would be fantastic!

Would love to second that. Just created an account to leave a comment here. I have a Rotel RC-1590 preamp and it has a USB DAC inside. For some reasons the signal keeps alive sometimes, but 99/100 is stops a few seconds after stopping playback. Starting up again skips the beginning of the song and 'pops'.

I would like to have a selectable output so the output is not the default one, preventing other applications than my music player to reach the USB DAC. I play via ASIO instead of WASAPI and upsample everything to 384KHz so this program can do it's thing.

Sound Keeper is a similar program which can keep alive multiple audio output at once. To enable this mode, you just need to add All to the file name. The program doesn't store anything in registry or anywhere else, and reads settings from its filename.
