HDS Audio Local Client Manual Page

NAME
hdsaudio - HDS ViewStation Audio Control Panel

SYNOPSIS
hdsaudio [ -d dev ] [ -Xt/Motif options ]

DESCRIPTION
The hdsaudio downloadable Motif client runs locally on the HDS ViewStation. It provides a control panel which allows the user to easily set and monitor various audio settings.
These settings include:
Playback Volume
Playback Stereo Balance
Record Gain
Record Stereo Balance
Input Monitoring Volume
Audio Out Device Type
Audio In Device Type

The client also displays useful statistics about current audio activity (sample counts, sampling rates, etc).

Changes made with hdsaudio stay effective even after the client is exited. If a display argument is used, the controls can appear on a remote X Window display but the audio device affected is the one on the ViewStation executing hdsaudio.

This client can be used with or without the HDS NetAudio server, auhds. This client can only be used on ViewStations equipped with the optional HDS MultiMedia Audio Card.

OPTIONS
The hdsaudio client accepts all of the standard X Toolkit command line options as well as the following:

-d dev
Specify an alternate audio device to which output should be directed. If the -d option is not specified, /dev/audio is the default audio device.
