[Resolved] The Audio Visualizer Doesn't Work on Speaker

[GodFather]

As title, I set audio input device with my speaker but doesn't work, it's only work on microphone and DVI port (monitor), I have been read FAQ and all I can found article about this issue, I can't resolve it by myself so I post this discussion, if someone can help me appreciate.

Any sound enhancing software installed? Which sound card do you have? Some have alternative inputs if your default input is disabled or other software prevents it from working.

[GodFather]

Nvidia High Definition Audio
Nvidia Virtual Audio Device (Wave Extensible) (WDM)
(I'm not sure those are sound card or not, I open device manager and I saw them)

Realtek High Definition Audio

I tried chage default in Windows playback device, it can work on my monitor (HDMI) but doesn't work on my speaker.

Perhaps it is different sound card result it, because I saw discription in playback device my monitor is NVDIA and my speaker is Realtek.

Sorry for bad english, thank you.

[GodFather]

Okay I think it is a miracle, I disable the Realtek sound card and restart my computer, then I enable Realtek and restart again, it works now, I don't know why it works but it is great, right?

Thank you for your anwser, you made a BEST program ever, I love this program, thank you for everything.

I found a temporary solution to resolve that issue.

I set audio input sevice (in Wallpaper Engine) on my speaker, and use device manager disable the Realtek sound card, then restart computer, and when it done you will notice your music come from monitor, and then enable Realtek sound card and restart again, and you can listen music with your speaker and audio visualizer is jumping now.

DON'T try to go to Wallpaper Engine settings to change audio input device setting, it will restore.

Seems it like a bug but I don't care, it's working.

If anyone has any better soulution please tell me.

[GodFather]

Seems it is not a good solution for this issue, after few minute it is restore.

I still trying find some way out.

Since you have Realtek, you should have an input called Stereo Mix that should work too (which you can select in Wallpaper Engine). You might have to enable it first in the Windows options though.

[GodFather]

Oh about that, I already open Stereo Mix, but sensitive is not enough, and when I stop music audio visualizer still shaking, I want it totally stop while I stop my music.

[Biohazard]

The sensitivity can be increased in the options of Wallpaper Engine and the Realtek options too, it might be too low there as well.

Stopping completely is not possible with that input though I'm afraid, that's how Realtek built it.

[GodFather]

Oh I see, could you teach me how to set Realtek option please?

[GodFather]

The problem is if I can't resolve sensitive problem, the audio amplitude is almost same with I'm not playing any music.

Then I don't know why I buy this program, so if I need to stand tiny amplitude maybe I use microphone to be audio input will better.

I will continuous testing for use speaker, because when I use my monitor to be audio input device I can see audio visualizer completely stop like a normal circle when I stop music, I think it is possible.

So if you can teach me how to set up Realtek it will be helpful for me, because I'm not really care about it totally stop or not, if I can resolve sensitive problem it will be perfect enough for me, I just don't want use mic to be audio input device, that will result no matter what I'm doing it will jumping even I'm eating, so Stereo Mix is ok, but I want to resolve sensitive problem or Stereo Mix mode is useless because it jump like doesn't jump.

Point is Stereo Mix mode is useless because it tiny jump is same with I didn't play music, so that mean I play music or not is doesn't matter because it is same amplitude.

I do apologize again for my bad english, hope you can understand what I'm talking about.

You need to adjust the volume of the input device for Stereo Mix. One slider is in Wallpaper Engine but you also have to adjust it in Windows, like here: https://www.sevenforums.com/attachments/sound-audio/134027d1486581926t-stereo-mix-doesnt-catch-sound-capture.png

I don't have Realtek myself, but they have a control panel that should also show the input. It might also have a slider there.

[GodFather]

Yeah thank you, I think I better use microphone to be audio input, because even I adjust Stereo Mix to highest level that doesn't work at all.

[GodFather]

So, I found some way out, here is my solution:

I said it's work on HDMI port, so I plug my speaker on my monitor, that's all.

And finally I got perfect audio visualizer, it just sensutive my computer sound not microphone, and it can be a normal circle while I didn't playing music, hope that information will help someone has same problem with that.

[GodFather]

By the way, Biohazard if you see this, maybe you can post on FAQ to be a simple solution to resolve speaker problem, but this is only work on PC, I don't have notebook so if some one has same problem with NB I don't know how to do.

Thanks for helping.
