ClaytoniousRex Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Adz, most implementations of OpenAL on OS X don't support audio capture so it just won't work until Apple updates OpenAL. This will probably happen with their 1.1 release which will hopefully come very soon. I'll float the question again on their dev list but you know how Apple is - all release dates are some kind of mysterious secret. We'll see what they say.

adzling Posted July 24, 2006 Author Share Posted July 24, 2006 ok thanks Clayton, I just didn't know if it was meant to work and was some kind of software issue on my mac. well i'll keep my fingers crossed on openAL 1.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adzling Posted July 24, 2006 Author Share Posted July 24, 2006 apple's site for openAL states this: "OpenAL v1.2. In Mac OS X v10.4Tiger, this version is packaged inside a 1.0 framework." I guess that means they have tweaked version 1.0 eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaytoniousRex Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Unfortunately Apple has their own version numbering for their OpenAL framework which has nothing to do with the version of OpenAL which it implements. I am pretty sure this is deliberately misleading but who knows... Will let you know what they say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaytoniousRex Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Good news. Their June release of OpenAL includes Capture. Unfortunately is only supports 44kHZ capture but we've coded around that and it seems to work now. We're testing to make sure nothing else broke in this new release (beware of geeks bearing gifts, you know). As long as it all checks out OK then you will have voice chat in 1.1.1.
