Hi. The problem seems to stem from the WaveIn API, which is typically what's used in Windows. It has a limit of 32 characters for the device name, including the terminating null char. OpenAL would need to be changed to use dsound or mmdevapi, when available, which should be able to provide the full names. _______________________________________________ Openal mailing list [email protected] http://opensource.creative.com/mailman/listinfo/openal
