Description (last modified by gentux2) (diff)

Currently, there is no documentation for unimix, leading to (among other things) lack of sufficient feedback from testers whose hardware requires setting/getting various input/output levels.

All parameters should be addressed, with an easy-to-read drill-down list of what id does what.

The documentation should initially be in the form of a simple txt file, but later compiled into a .inf with standard documentation for Uniaud itself (see separate ticket).

Bear in mind that while the unimix source is available, it depends on uniaud.dll, whose source is not, so it is no longer maintained by the Uniaud project. Unimix.exe is very useful now, but because its compatibility can no longer be assured long-term, we are deprecating it after 1.1.4 in favor of LBMix(#135) and probably alsamix.

As long as unimix is working better than these, you are right some basic documentation would be very helpful.

Then we (I) should also update the readme with a mention of LBMix, which is now GPL. More comments in #135, as they do not pertain to documentation.
