Hello, I'm trying to start up a little project which involves dealing with sound and other applications.
Could anyone give me some recommend some good sound libraries to use? I was originally going to try doing this on Windows but I am switching my laptop over to Linux to try it out for awhile, so I will most likely try and make it on either Linux or Windows, whichever turns out to be easier to work with.
My idea is to create a program that will run in the background and automaticly adjust the sound levels of different applications based on what is currently running.
I'll use VOIP as an example, I'm trying to make something that will adjust the volume of everything currently using sound, so that the voice from the VOIP software will be louder than everything else.
Anyone know if this is even possible? I was thinking that I could moniter the sound driver or what ever in the OS that handles sound and then get the process ID to find what is using the computers sound card, intercept the data, change it and then return it to the sound card/thingy.
