Trying to get to the bottom of a problem with MSI Afterburner in
capturing online game play.

XP Pro SP3, Audigy Platinum ES audio. I made some test captures of
online gameplay. I find it only captured the audio in mono. It's
supposed to do it in stereo. Tried various settings. I was getting
stereo capturing the home screen which has some audio background but
once it got to the level of gameplay, only mono. There are plenty of
examples of Afterburner capturing stereo audio on YouTube.

Normally I have the onboard audio disabled but for purposes of
experimentation I re-enabled the Azalia audio in bios, loaded the
Realtek drivers. The Audigy is still installed but I have the Realtek
audio selected as the default within Windows and specified within
Afterburner.

Now, I get *no* audio with any captures including Youtube. Captures
video fine but not the audio. Un/Re-installed MSI Afterburner, even
tried the newest beta version. Audio through the speakers is fine. So
apparently the screen cap app isn't connecting with the audio.

Anyone have any insights?

Thanks.

I've got audio recording - had to unmute the "Stereo Mix" selection in
the Realtek mixer but I'm getting the same behavior as with the
Audigy. I get stereo audio at the point of the home screen but only
mono audio within the game. Stereo Youtube video records as stereo.

I have to modify this yet again. If I start recording while I'm still
on the main screen, I get stereo, if I wait until I'm in game, I get
mono audio.
