The IDirectSound::SetSpeakerConfig method specifies the speaker configuration of the DirectSound object.
HRESULT SetSpeakerConfig(
DWORD dwSpeakerConfig
);
DSSPEAKER_HEADPHONE | |
The speakers are headphones. | |
DSSPEAKER_MONO | |
The speakers are monaural. | |
DSSPEAKER_QUAD | |
The speakers are quadraphonic. | |
DSSPEAKER_STEREO | |
The speakers are stereo (default value). | |
DSSPEAKER_SURROUND | |
The speakers are surround sound. |
DSSPEAKER_STEREO may be combined with one of the following values:
DSSPEAKER_GEOMETRY_WIDE | |
The speakers are directed over an arc of 20 degrees | |
DSSPEAKER_GEOMETRY_NARROW | |
The speakers are directed over an arc of 10 degrees | |
DSSPEAKER_GEOMETRY_MIN | |
The speakers are directed over an arc of 5 degrees | |
DSSPEAKER_GEOMETRY_MAX | |
The speakers are directed over an arc of 180 degrees |
If the method succeeds, the return value is DS_OK.
If the method fails, the return value may be one of the following error values:
DSERR_INVALIDPARAM
DSERR_UNINITIALIZED
If a geometry value is to be used, it must be packed in a DWORD along with the DSSPEAKER_STEREO flag. This can be done by using the DSSPEAKER_COMBINED macro, as in the following C++ example:
lpds->SetSpeakerConfig(DSSPEAKER_COMBINED(
DSSPEAKER_STEREO, DSSPEAKER_GEOMETRY_WIDE));
