Quote from: Peter on
Please add "Release device when idle on pause" for WASAPI component, this is must-have feature, very comfortably. This is implemented in MPC-BE portable, see screenshot.

This function is needed for WASAPI Exclusive Mode.

This would be nice to have. It's annoying having to close Foobar every time I need audio from something else on my computer.

it's very simple, you can simply not use exclusive mode.
muting all other apps should be easily doable without exclusive mode if that's what you need.

? - The beta is WASAPI shared mode. Not the same as WASAPI exclusive component.

Ah, sorry, didn't realize that this thread was about the component...
All that WASAPI stuff is new to me. At the studio I use only ASIO and at home direct sound so far...
