Setting wasapi in alsoft.ini? #896

Open NikolaiVChr opened 1 year ago

In the alsoft.ini file can I select Wasapi by doing this:

drivers = wasapi

Also what is the default value of drivers on windows 64 bit?

kcat commented 1 year ago

The default value is blank, which means the current order of the available backends. For the prebuilt binaries (32-bit and 64-bit), the list is, in order: wasapi, dsound, winmm, null, wave

The current full list, in order, is: pipewire, pulse (PulseAudio), wasapi, core (CoreAudio for macOS), oboe, opensl, alsa, solaris, sndio, oss (Open Sound System), jack, dsound, winmm (Windows MultiMedia), port (PortAudio), sdl2, null (dummy output), wave (Wave file writer)

Obviously a Windows build won't have all of these... some aren't possible to use on Windows, while others are technically possible but unlikely to be available on Windows.
