Control default sound device

[QT-static-prgm]

Hey,

i wonder if there is any qt that allows you to get the current default sound device and to change it.

I searched for that but i only found some crazy c++ workarounds. Those start the window and navigate through the window by sending inputs to it.

Since Qt is a really powerful library i hope there is a class that gives me all sound devices and can switch the default one.

Hi,

To get the default device: QAudioDeviceInfo.
To change it at OS level is outside of Qt's scope.

[QT-static-prgm]

yeah i found that. But i want to change the default device (speakers/headset)

I hoped i can get the current default device that way. But defaultOutputDevice().deviceName() returns: "Default output device" instead of it's real name...

That's the name Qt receives from the OS.

@SGaist then the os is stupid ;)

Any ideas if there is a windows api that allows you to change the default device??

And (other "problem") is it possible to record from Outputdevice1 and send everything to micro 1??

@QT-static-prgm You want record from an output device and send it to an input device?

[QT-static-prgm]

@jsulm yeah :D Teamspeak: Headset, music: speaker. And if i start the program the music should be passed to the teamspeak micro. There are a few plugins but those need music files and if you are streaming the music, you don't have the mp3 files

@QT-static-prgm I don't think you can pass anything to a microphone as it is an input device, not output.
