Re: Vmware

am running 4.0.5 latest build of vmware.. under winxp the sound card is recognised at an es1371 (or similar) and under win98 it thinks it's an sb16.. have installed the default driver (from windows cd) for both and it sounds horrible.. so I tried proper Creative drivers and it sounds the same..

I'm sure that I've had this working before (I could be mistaken though - the sound wasn't a great issue) under either RH9 or MDK but I don't see any reason why things should be different..

Arts is running fine under FC1 and everything (mp3's, CD's, BT848 TV Card - line in etc etc) works a treat..

I would have thought that if the vmware team could emulate a whole x86 architecture - a simple thing like a sound card shouldn't be a problem - maybe I just don't know enough about how these things work though....

Seems a strange problem.. all this stemmed from me not being able to figure out how to broadcast to my dj station..

Can't figure out how to get Oddsock dsp working in xmms.. so figured I'd run shoutcast through winamp in a vmware sesssion (convoluted huh? lol)

Oh well.. back to the drawing board.. lol

My sound card is working fine and my mp3's sound perfect in xmms..
but when I use the sound card in vmware (I have both Win XP & Win 98
guests installed - this applies to both) the output is all scrambled..
sounds all "blobby"..

Anyone else had this problem? and if so - did you get it fixed?



Have you configured VMWare's virtual soundcard?

As of VMWare 3.* that was a SB16 emulation; don't know about VMWare 4.

In neither case, though, are you directly accessing the hardware sound
card.
