Summary | 0006469: Make WASAPI output plug-in default, with a fall-back to DS | ||||
Description | Since WASAPI plug-in currently replaces all the DS plug-in functionality, we should make it the default. In case it doesn't work (e.g. for Win XP), it should be automatically switched to out_DS.dll. | ||||
Additional Information | The automatic switch to out_DS should happen in the main application (WinampPlugins.pas) whenever a call to Open() function of out_WASAPI fails. It should be hardcoded to out_DS.dll. | ||||

Implemented in build 1312. BUT, on WinXP I left 'out_MMDS.dll' as default output plugin, because XP users would be confused how it is possible that WASAPI doesn't fail on XP and silently switches to out_MMDS. e.g. They would configure WASAPI to Crossfade 5 seconds, but in fact the out_MMDS would be used. This would be very confusing. Therefore also the hardcoded fall-back is performed only on Vista and higher Win versions. |

XP users can currently enable WASAPI and nothing will play. It shouldn't be selectable if it doesn't work. http://www.mediamonkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=285035#p285035 |

Fixed in build 1346, the wasapi plugin node is now disabled on Win XP and lower |

As discussed offline, we should revert this fix. I.e. to make out_MMDS the default output plug-in and also to not use out_MMDS in case out_WASAPI fails. This is part of remedy re. 0007327. |

Reverted in build 1383. |
