I have a new ACER Aspire 5250-0810 and i have not been able to find a stereo mixer. This is not a huge deal. But i would like to share music i am listening to while video chatting w/out having to use mic. The sound is distorted and i don't want chat partner to hear me. Is there no Stereo Mixer driver for Conexant sound cards?
Checked out the link it led me to download page for "Conexant Audio Driver For AMD HDMI Codec version 4.9" A download page with no link to an actual download. Searched the for driver in google, led nowhere. i did use "DriverMax" to install Conexant HD AUDIO driver v 8.54.8.8.50 still no stereo mixer in volume controls. Did a little research and found "Virtual Audio Cable". This program allowed me to stream the music i am listening through a"virtual line in", which shows up in volume controls, through video chats w/out having to play music aloud and use mic, which distorts and sounds really poor for my chat partner. It took me a tweak or two in the volume controls for the results i was looking for: listening to music while streaming and no mic sound.
If anyone needs help configuring once VAC is installed. I can let you know what i did for it to work. Free trial does have female voice saying "trial" repeatedly. not noticeable the louder the music. I am going to keeping using for a while before considering FULL VERSION, since my uses are purely recreational.
I would like any info on the lack of "stereo mixer" in volume controls and lack of driver for CONEXANT sound cards which would allow for such operation. Makes me really wish i had a REALTEK sound car.
Thanks for suggestions though.
My problem with Conexant sound cards no longer an issue. I was using a family member computer. I recently bought a new laptop with RealTek sound card. Sound Mixer was an option out the box. I didn't even have to go to website and download driver. So thanks anyway, whom ever, if anyone, was trying to solve this.
