Overview

The concept of a virtual audio output device is a name that is associated with a physical audio output device. It is very similar to the concept of Capture Devices. Using the name to refer to the device makes it possible to specify where a specific video or sound should output audio, on the player. The process of associating a name with an audio output device on the manager must therefore be repeated on all players that will use it. A system default audio output device is always defined.
