From 3e90a5fe81229e4c0acd8e5afa8d59efaf942fa9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: wm4 Date: Wed, 6 Jan 2016 13:48:43 +0100 Subject: ao_dsound: remove this audio output It existed for XP-compatibility only. There was also a time where ao_wasapi caused issues, but we're relatively confident that ao_wasapi works better or at least as good as ao_dsound on Windows Vista and later. --- DOCS/man/ao.rst | 18 ++---------------- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) (limited to 'DOCS') diff --git a/DOCS/man/ao.rst b/DOCS/man/ao.rst index fafdfd81ae..8bddc98a42 100644 --- a/DOCS/man/ao.rst +++ b/DOCS/man/ao.rst @@ -20,10 +20,8 @@ normal driver parameters.
