Hello everyone,
I recently re-dove into FlightGear. Wow, huge improvements since I first tried it around verison 1.9.1...
I really like the ATIS voice synth. But I have experienced a strange behavior.
I was sitting in the stock aircraft C172P on the runway of my favorite airport. I tune the COM1 radio to the ATIS frequency (124.9). I activate the speaker audio with the COM1 rocker switch in the up position (SPEAKER). I hear the audio of the decoded METAR being played back (very nice!). Once I got all the information I wanted, I turn it off with the rocker SWITCH center position (OFF). At this point no more audio. I realize that the volume of the COM1 knob is brought down, so I put it back midway at roughly 50%. But as soon as I start turning it up, the ATIS is played back again, even with the COM1 in the OFF position.
Here is a screen shot explaining the issue (sorry night flying...). At this point audio was still playing despite the COM1 at OFF position.
It's not a major issue, but I found it strange. Is it normal behavior? It seems that the rocker switch as the effect of adjusting the volume knob between 0 and 70% to match OFF and SPEAKER.
Let me know if you need more info.
Thanks,
Mathieu
