Changing sound device

Post by M3CHR0M4NC3R »

I'm currently trying to change openMW's sound device to my tv, which I have tested to work. I have read the documentation on the "device =" setting, but I can't seem to get it to work.
The output from openMW.log goes as follows for my sound devices(first is default, I am trying to use the second):
Enumerated output devices:
OpenAL Soft on Speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio)
OpenAL Soft on CRT (NVIDIA High Definition Audio)

What of this would I put in quotes to change the sound device to the second one?

You wouldn't use quotes. Set the device line to:

Code: Select all

device = OpenAL Soft on CRT (NVIDIA High Definition Audio)
and it should select that second one.

@M3CHR0M4NC3R: Just for the record: Did Chris's solution work for you?
