Hi Rod,
I think I had found that and downloaded it a while ago but last week my
computers got a virus from the United States government, probably NSA and had
to get them purged, windows re-installed, so I don't know where it might be.
If you want a copy of the display using DOS, try running the executable
with the DOS prompt and the > symbol to send the display to a file.
I have not tried it yet, but they should work if you are getting a display.
At the DOS Prompt Just do:
ProgramName.exe > StorageFile.txt
Then open it up in notepad and it should work fine. If there are keystrokes
then you would have to memorize them while doing this and when the program is
exited the file will be closed and data saved.

Subject: Changing the default playback device in Windows 7
Hi everyone,
I found this page through google where you can download a zip archive
containing an executable as well as resources for Python and a Visual Studio C#
project for an app which changes the default sound device in Windows 7. The
executable works on my Windows 7 x64 system perfectly, and I figured it would
work fine in 32-bit Windows 7. I was hoping to integrate the executable into a
WE app, but I can do no more than specify a specific sound device ID on the
executable command line, like this:
Endpointcontroller.exe 0
Which would make the first sound device on the system the default. Indeed,
specifying no ID on the command line displays a list of all the playback
devices, but I tried every DOS trick I know to try to store this list to a text
file in order to be able to work with it, to no avail. Of course, I could make
an app which just cycles through, say, 5 IDs, just to try to cover as many
situations as possible, but this is kind of a cheezy approach. Anyway, if you
have time an interest, check it out and see what you think.
