Warn user when access to the microphone is blocked in the privacy settings (Windows 10) #3347
Comments
Could you install the latest snapshot and see if the issue persists, please? |
I could solve the problem by running the program as an administrator. |
That would indeed be surprising and unexpected. Mumble is not intended to be run as admin. Could you elaborate a bit on how to you reproduce this problem? You're saying that your microphone works perfectly until you click Configure -> Settings, and visit Audio Input -- without doing anything in the settings dialog? |
That's indeed surprising. Even more surprising is, that I can't reproduce this.. |
Oh I could reproduce this. It's indeed a bug. At the first time it did not happen.. but now |
I made a video corresponding to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1L_uPTfqQLw |
Oh no.. That's so embarrassing. |
As far as I can see, no slider being all the way to the left in your video should cause the mic problems you're seeing. |
@Singustromo Does it happen with the latest snapshot? |
Hello, I've downloaded both snapshot and stable 1,2.19, both of them give me issues with my microphone on windows 10. I've win 10 Pro Version 1803 on 17134.191 compilation. |
Both times I used the program in admin mode, and normal user mode. |
OK FIXED IT, Windows 10 privacy settings was not allowing apps to access the microphone, and mumble was a victim of that. |
Thanks @frenchiveruti - I've had the same issue for a while, even starting Mumble as Administrator didn't work, but it was fixed by allowing apps to use a microphone from the Win 10 privacy settings. Is there a way Mumble could detect if it doesn't have the permission to use a microphone and give an informative error message about it? Currently it allows you to select the microphone device without errors but there's just no audio input at all, just silence. |
Message added in #3572. |
With Mumble (1.2.19) I have problems with the input.
It recognises my microphone until I am in the Audio Settings at the point where you can decide between the different voice recognition methods (Push-To-Talk and Voice recognition etc.)
I never had this problem until I installed my sound card. No other application (Discord, TS3..) has problems with multiple sound cards / chips -> On board and external..
