To adjust your audio settings

1. On the Tools menu, click Options.
2. On the Audio tab, make the desired changes.

Notes

• If your computer does not have a sound card, the Audio tab is not visible.
• If the Enable full-duplex audio so I can speak while receiving audio check box appears dimmed, your sound card does not support full-duplex audio.
• Auto-gain is a sound card and driver feature that automatically adjusts the microphone volume. Auto-gain is not available with all sound cards. The Automatically adjust microphone volume while in a call option achieves similar results for people whose sound cards do not have the auto-gain feature.
• DirectSound improves audio performance by shortening the time between when audio is sent and received.
• To manually configure compression settings, click Advanced, and then click the Manually configure compression settings check box. In Preferred codec for audio compression, click an available setting.
