So under the covers the Denon is using a 0-99 scale too. But this setting in the plugin tells us how far up that scale we can go. For example if you selected 0 as your maximum then the Denon will reject any volume command smaller (more volume). Here is the scale: :00 to 99 , 80=0dB, 99=---(MIN) So the settings in the plugin does not change anything in the Denon or LMS player, it just lets us know how big of a volume your Denon is willing to accept. So we use this to set the range of the LMS player so 100% of the player equals the largest level your Denon will accept. You can actually enter a lower value than what you set in the Denon and we would therefore never reach that level of volume. But if you went the other way then any level in the LMS player that would exceed the Denon's setting would be rejected. In essence that would mean a great deal of the range of your LMS players volume adjustment would not be used and the rest would cause a larger change than is ideal. Anyway a bit confusing, but the good news is that once you figure out the formula you only need to enter it one time, unless you change this value on your Denon. Originally I did not think there was a way to ask the Denon for this setting as there are no commands to do so. But in preparing for the 4.2 ability to adjust the channel volumes it turns out the Denon gives me back this setting as a bonus. So it is highly probable I will be removing this setting in the plugin in the future. Stand by.
