Ever since Java version 1.5 came out, JParanoia hasn't had any reliable sound on Windows. I can run it on Java 1.4.2_17, but this doesn't particularly well with Windows Vista, and Glass is disabled while Java is running.
Here's what one sees in the console using the latest Java (1.6.0_10):
| Code: |
C:\Users\David\Desktop\JParanoia(1.31.1)>java -jar JParanoia(1.31.1).jar
JPSERVER VERSION: 1.31.1
JPCLIENT VERSION: 1.31.1
This is the JParanoia client console.
Running under Java Runtime Environment version 1.6.0_10
JPSoundPlayer started
Primary Sound Driver, version Unknown Version
SoundManager finished acquiring resources for audio playback. |
And here's how it looks when using Java 1.4.2_17, where the sound still works:
| Code: |
C:\Users\David\Desktop\JParanoia(1.31.1)>java -version:1.4.2_17 -jar JParanoia(1
.31.1).jar
JPSERVER VERSION: 1.31.1
JPCLIENT VERSION: 1.31.1
This is the JParanoia client console.
Running under Java Runtime Environment version 1.4.2_17
JPSoundPlayer started
Java Sound Audio Engine, version 1.0
SoundManager finished acquiring resources for audio playback. |
Now, I don't hold out any hope for JParanoia getting fixed (which is why I didn't just file a bug report), but I was wondering if anybody knew why Java 1.5+ can't find the right sound driver, and if there's a command-line or configuration file or some other way of fixing that. My knowledge of Java is very limited. |
