Hi,
Im trying to deploy my game on a PC without soundcard driver installed.
And jME says that the openal lib cannot be found. The dll is there.
How can i test if there is soundcard installed on the System?
I try to put the AudioSystem.getSystem(); and get the exception but the exception is SEVERE and is not caught.
Is there a way to verify if sound is supported before start StandardGame?

You might have less wait time by searching the forum first 
Sorry but i've seen it before post and thats not what i need.
I need to know if exists Soundcard driver installed, i dont want to just disable sound, i want to recognize if there is no soundcard and then disable sound.
I need to know if i must or not disable sound!
Sorry I guess I misunderstood…
umm, maybe try playing a sound; it if fails (or throws error) mark your system to not play any more audio…
I really don't think you can test for specific drivers from java, but you might be able find out if a sound card is available before starting your game. Check out: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/sound/programmer_guide/chapter3.html#113159
I got it.
Info[] mixers=javax.sound.sampled.AudioSystem.getMixerInfo();
If returns an empty array it has no soundcard.
Thanks basixs!!
glad to help
