OS/2 Operating System Limitations ================================= Analog Devices Inc. tests and recommends the following combinations of operating system and fixpak: OS/2 Version Fixpak ------------------- -------------------------------- Warp 3.0 XR_W042 Warp 4.0 XR_M013 + Driver fixpak XR_D001 Warp 4.0 Japanese FX00505 For combinations of operating system and fixpak prior to those shown below, WarpMix does not function correctly. Although the driver itself may work with earlier versions of the operating system, we cannot guarantee this. OS/2 Version Fixpak ------------------- --------- Warp 3.0 XR_W026 Warp 4.0 XR_M010 Warp 4.0 Japanese FX00505 WinOS/2 Audio driver limitations ================================ The Analog SoundMax driver comes with a WinOS/2 audio driver that supports wave playback and recording in WinOS/2 sessions. It's not possible to use the audio device in OS/2 and WinOS/2 simultaneously. MMPM/2 or WinOS/2 will report errors if you try this. Known problems ============== - Master volume adjustments have no effect unless an audio stream is active. (OS/2 bug) Use Warpmix instead. - Not all mixer settings are restored after a reboot. MMPM/2 overrides some values automatically (master volume/ wave volume). After the first system sounds, the master volume is set to its previous value by Warpmix. - Mixer changes in Digital Audio App don't show up in Warpmix. This is a limitation of the new mixer subsystem. Close and restart Warpmix to view the new settings. Copyright 1995-2001, Compaq Computer Corporation. All rights reserved.
