Hello,
I am having an unusual problem with VirtualDub recording video game footage. Everything works fine after the computer starts up. I've got good video quality from the SVideo cable, good audio from the audio cables, and everything runs smoothly (well, almost, but I'll get to that in a minute). However, after my computer wakes up from sleep mode, there is no audio playback or audio recording. I have Windows 7 and I'm using an HP computer with an AMD FX-6100 processor.
Another problem I'm having is that when I'm trying to record stereo, sometimes the right speaker gets muted, and I'm only recording the audio from the left speaker.
Any ideas to solve these two problems? |

Some ideas:
1) Probably after wake up, your pc is not aware anymore of external audio device.
Does it change a thing when you go to Control Panel > Device Manager > click on the top branch > Action(-menu) > Scan for Hardware changes
and after that trying to record sound again ?
2) When you play an already recorded video, do you hear sound via both speakers ?
If so, I would suspect a bad connection of audio cable(s)
Does it change a thing after plug out / plug in the audio cable(s) ? |

Scanning for Hardware Changes did nothing. I still didn't get any audio registering on VirtualDub.
I was thinking it might be bad cable connections preventing me from recording stereo sound, but I can't test those until I restart my computer, so I will test that tomorrow and get back to you.
EDIT: Faulty cable connections was the reason I couldn't record in stereo, so that problem's solved. |

I just tested AmarecTV after waking my computer from sleep mode and it wasn't playing back audio either, so the problem is with my computer, not with the VirtualDub program. I tried scanning for hardware changes again and I even disabled and re-enabled the Dazzle Audio device. Nothing worked. |

Found a workaround. I'm hibernating my computer instead of putting it to sleep. That keeps the computer from failing to recognize the external audio device. |
