xine is still configured to use sound card mixer instead of software mixer by default in 10.4 testing.

[Bug 41871] Re: volume slider should not use PCM but software mixer or master volume
You can choose software mixer in xine provided by xine-ui package from motumedia ppa at least. It is audio mixer control method in gui settings, if you choose experience level advanced or more expert. I couldn't find similar setting in gxine of ubuntu 9.04. -- volume slider should not use PCM but software mixer or master volume https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/41871 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Ahhh, just been trying to re-read some of the above. Thanks Raoul Verveer for listing which apps use which volume control. A useful issue to know. Also thanks to Kko for distinguishing between PCM and 'Main Volume' aswell as the advice about applets. Apparently it was found that 'UFO sightings' are more likely at 7pm on a Wednesday evening so watch the skies tonight ;) Personally i think the only evidence that there is intelligent life out there is that it hasn't tried to contact us yet ;) lol, good luck and happy hunting :) -- volume slider should not use PCM but software mixer or master volume https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/41871 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 41871] Re: volume slider should not use PCM but software mixer or master volume
Ok, im a noob and don't understand... Do most applications that use the speakers have their own setting as a percentage of the overall-system-wide-Main-Volume? This would seem, to me, to be perfect - especially if each application remembered its own setting but didn't change the main one. I tend to prefer my music at one of 2 main volumes. Firstly as background and second (much much louder) when i'm either annoyed or getting ready to go out to a gig. So i could have 2 players & rename one of them 'Pre-gig' :) Is PCM the 'Main Volume'? -- volume slider should not use PCM but software mixer or master volume https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/41871 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 41871] Re: volume slider should not use PCM but software mixer or master volume
I remember I could change gxine's mixer device to be software mixer, but I don't remember what alsa_mixer_name I used anymore. I remember I got some hint from xmms's settings dialog, but I can't install it anymore in Ubuntu 8.04 to refresh my memory. I think software mixer would be great, as by that you can set relative volumes of different sound sources individually and software mixer has effect in all sound card outputs so changing software mixer setting keeps their relative volume same. -- volume slider should not use PCM but software mixer or master volume https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/41871 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Unfortunately xmms was removed since Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron" because it was unmaintained.

[Bug 41871] Re: volume slider should not use PCM but software mixer or master volume
Also kmplayer uses PCM, and I had trouble with it (embedded in Konqueror) altering PCM volume without my consent. I would appreciate it if someone checked this and marked this issue confirmed also for 'kmplayer', as it wouldn't be proper for me to do it myself. It seems to me that the key to usability with colum control is _consistent_ behaviour across different applications and throughout the system. So, whatever the solution, it should not cause the kind of conflicts with different applications' volume sliders as reported here. (As an aside: Since a number of applications (I use mplayer) use and alter PCM volume, I've decided to partially circumvent the problem by making also the volume applet in my panel directly alter "PCM" volume instead of "main". I find myself sometimes having to call up the mixer and change both of them, though.) -- volume slider should not use PCM but software mixer or master volume https://launchpad.net/bugs/41871 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
