<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Some SOUND4 software programs run as services. <br />
<br />
You may need to adjust their parameters for specific usage.<br />
<br />
=== Changing service parameters ===<br />
You should first run the program from command-line with <code>--help</code> to see what is possible to configure.<br />
<br />
==== Software mode ====<br />
Some service executables can be called with <code>--set-parameters-service</code> to change the service parameters.<br />
<br />
You should take care of keeping some verbose level (default is usually <code>-vvv</code>).<br />
<br />
For instance, to increase SOUND4 Stream log file size to 10 MB, run :<br />
<br />
<code>sound4stream.exe --set-parameters-service -vvv --logfile-limit-kb 10000</code><br />
<br />
==== Registry mode ====<br />
The parameters for the service are stored in the registry, under <code>Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\''servicename''\Parameters</code>.<br />
<br />
You can just add the needed parameters, and restart the service.<br />
<br />
==== Some frequent parameters in SOUND4 services ====<br />
<br />
* <code>-v</code> : increase log level, can appear multiple times<br />
* <code>--logfile ''path''</code> : set the log file name<br />
* <code>--logfile-limit-kb ''limit''</code> : set the log file size limit<br />
* <code>--priority ''prio''</code> : can change the maximum priority allowed for audio threads.</div>Camille
