Those options look like you have your soundcard at a pretty minimal level. mono, mean mono, not stereo. 8000 mean 8000 bits per second which is a bit worse than a telephone. 8 bits per sample is also worse than a telephone ( that is a difference in volume levels of less than 100). Maybe if you were a bit clearer or more detailed in your request. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
