68. Enable Sound In DreamScene
Windows Vista Ultimate Extras offer the user a
way of bringing the PC's desktop to life with
DreamScene.
DreamScene enables the user to use video to
enhance their desktop experience. But, as well as
having video running on the desktop, you can also
experience sound too.
To enable the DreamScene sound, proceed as
follows:
1/ Ensure that your DreamScene video is running
on your desktop
2/ Right Click on the Speaker icon in the
notification are (next to the clock at the bottom of
your screen)
3/ From the menu that appears, Click Open Volume
Mixer
4/ In the Volume Mixer window you should see
three options:
- Speakers.
- Windows Sound.
- Windows DreamScene (If you don't see the
DreamScene option then DreamScene isn't running
on your PC)
5/ At the Bottom of the DreamScene Volume slider
you will see a Speaker icon with a small red circle
with a bar across it (if the red circle is not
showing then the the sound is already enabled),
Click on this to enable sound
6/ Finally, adjust the Volume Slider to the
desired level of sound, then Close the Volume Mixer
window by Clicking the red X in the top right hand
corner of the Mixer window
7/ You should now see your video playing and also
hear the sound.
