It is called "Digital Speaker Management" and it is the remote control for the inexpensive <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/IHOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IHOS</span></a> <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/DSP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DSP</span></a> processor.</p><p>I can click the connect button top right. But then the software crashes.</p><p>And I have an idea why it does so: It tries to find the IHOS controller via serial port or USB. Now Linux offers 32 serial ports to Wine, which are all virtual, and if I'd had the controller plugged in via USB, this would be COM33 in Wine! </p><p>But usually I don't plug it in, I use it via Wifi (the controller has its own wifi system even).</p><p>So is there a way to hide all these COM ports from Wine?</p><p>(Actually I do need COM33 sometimes for the Beyerdynamic Quinta Control Software.)</p><p>EDIT: I found out that the actual issue is displaying the connection window. It doesn't come up unless you press the Alt key after clicking the button. For whatever stupid reason.</p>
