Sound device swap over application
 

Hi all,

I just got me a new USB headset, its quite good and everything, got a mic, its ok, just one thing, i want ti connected all the time, because its just convinient. The only thing is that my PC will only output to one of the two sound devices (the headset or my soundcard/speakers), this can only be changed by going in to control panel - sounds/audio devices and changing the default playback device to the desired one...

This is ok, its a total of about 5 clicks to get there, but it would be nice if i had some little app or shortcut to be able to swap between the two.... Im sure it could be done with a little bit of programming, but my C# knowledge goes about as far as....

printf("I suck");

Any ideas?

cheers, dragon

Look into WSH (Windows Scripting Host). You can use VBScript (or Perlscript) to automate what those clicks do.

Which isn't C# ;)

Theres a simple scriping language called AutoIt. You can get it to "push keys" and do mouse clicks and other cool stuff. It should only be about 5-10 lines in AutoIt.
