Updated Uniaud Driver Package Released

Arca Noae is pleased to announce the immediate availability of an updated Uniaud Audio Driver Package for ArcaOS, OS/2, and eComStation. (Uniaud-20180117)

This is a minor maintenance release that contains some fixes for Realtek mixer devices.

This release of Uniaud32 also implements MSI support. MSI only works with the ACPI PSD version 3.23.04 or higher. It is not required to use the ACPI PSD with Uniaud. If you don’t use ACPI then Uniaud will just use normal interrupts. If you are using the ACPI PSD, it must be version 3.23.04 or higher or your system may trap. If you are using an earlier version of ACPI, upgrade ACPI first before installing this version of Uniaud.

More information about the Uniaud Package may be found in the Uniaud wiki.

If you have ArcaOS, this driver package is available for download from the Arca Noae website as part of the Support & Maintenance subscription for your ArcaOS product. Please log into your account and see your ArcaOS order details page to access your software.

If you have an Arca Noae OS/2 & eCS Drivers and Software Subscription, this driver package is available for download from the Arca Noae website as part of your Arca Noae OS/2 & eCS Drivers and Software Subscription. Please log into your account in order to access your software.

If you are still running OS/2 and/or eComStation systems and haven’t yet purchased a software subscription, this is a great reason to do so now. It may also be a good time to consider moving up to ArcaOS.
