I think I remember having that problem and cannot remember what I did to fix it. There is an option to reset the volume from the amp at every track change. Not sure if that has an effect or not. Also sometimes you have to reboot the LMS after you install and configure the plugin. Did you do that?

I put the 65536 in both places because as soon as you select 100% it
won't let the plugin be a part of the chain.

I'm a little confused. A couple of questions:
1: Peter's patch has not been updated to a new Max Target, correct? I
have the repo listed, the recommended patch's off, and it still does not
show up. It has not been updated correct?
2: I'm trying to patch my touch, Here is the closest code I can
find, starting at location 1198, I'm no expert, but the first if looks
like the patch, or does the else need to be edited as well?
Code:
local player = Player:getLocalPlayer()
if player and player:getDigitalVolumeControl() == 0 then
log:debug("User setting of 100% Fixed Volume is set")
decode:audioGain(65536, 65536)
else
log:debug("gainL, gainR: ", data.gainL, " ", data.gainR)
decode:audioGain(data.gainL, data.gainR)
end
Thanks in advance. BTW, is the patch also needed for Denon Serial

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] How to lock audio output at 100% (I think)
I did some research on this yesterday and it appears Peters original work is still sound, it just needs a bit of refreshing for LMS. The problem is that while Logitech 'fixed' the problem of the SB Touch not having a fixed volume they blew the implemenation for those that still want the ability to use the volume setting to instruct a plugin to actually perform the adjustment. This meant that your volume was being output at 100% from the SB Touch but you had no way to control it (in my case with the DenonAVPControl plugin). The solution is still the same as Peter outlined before. We 'patch' the output to always put out 100% but DO NOT select the 100% Volume feature on the SB Touch menus. Selecting the 100% Volume output defeats using the UI to control the volume hence plugins will not work appropriately. If Peters patch does not work as it was designed it's because he put a maxTarget restriction on 7.5+ in his repro file. The code looks reasonable and if the restriction was * or at least 7.7+ it should work with Erlands patch installer. So the modified instructions would be to follow what Peter wrote in the first entry but change the patch file maxTarget="7.5+" to maxTarget="7.7+" of even *. You can also choose option 2 to use SSH to change the gains mannually. The location is now line 1173 in LMS 7.7.1.

The "Fixed Volume" is now there in the Settings>Audio section of the Touch. But, when I click on it, it tells me that it needs to switch to mysqueezebox.com in order to make the change.

I attempted to instal this patch last night, and for the life of me could not find the relavent parameter adjustment fields, so I assumed that I'd messed up the patch installation.

Re: [SlimDevices: Touch] How to lock audio output at 100% (I think)
Yes you can have the same result by simply keeping the volume at 100% and check that it is so from time to time . 100=100 But locking it is good then you can not adjust it by mistake which is easy to do , you have so many ways of controlling the SB and all of them can adjust volume ir remote controller web-UI and the Touch interface itself squeezeplay, Radio etc. This patch or the latest soundcheck mod replaces the same code in the same file so , or you can simply hack it yourself with ssh and vi . -- Mnyb Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE rear ch.

yes but as Bluegaspode found out the other day it does not actually defeat replay gain and crossfade.. ;) RG and xfade is in compiled C elsewhere You can try it, fix volume at 100% activate xfade cue up a DTS track, now you have a waterfall the first and last seconds off each tune :) You still have to turn off volume adjustment (replay gain) and crossfade in player settings , not only "fix volume at 100%" If you have some DTS rips lurking in the playlists. I remove those files when it's party and actually use the xfade , it's is not always time for audiophile OCD I think the guest begins to drop off in proportion to how many stockfish albums you play. -- Mnyb Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE rear ch.

It should be found in the "Settings/Advanced/Patch Installer" menu in
the Squeezebox interface, it's not found in "Settings/Advanced/Applet
Installer" since it isn't an applet. You need to have "Patch Installer"
applet installed, this is installed through "Settings/Advanced/Applet

I don't think so, assuming you run a 7.5 firmware it should issue the
following CLI/JSON command to the server, independent if the server is
7.5 or 7.6:
Code:
jivepatches target:fab4 version:7.5 optstr:other|user
It will send the command to all servers known by the player, if the
player for some reason only thinks it's connected to MySB you can
sometimes get the message about no patches. Browsing into the "My
Music" menu should make the player aware of the local Squeezebox Server
and send the command to it the next time.
MySB doesn't support the jivepatches command. I'm not sure about the
built-in server on the Touch, it might support it but I'm not
completely sure. So if you have a Squeezebox Server on a computer on
the network with version 7.5 or 7.6 it should work as long as the
player has recently been connected to it or at least detected it.

John. Ever tried offline volume control - converting the file before it gets played? I did and do. ;) On my own player. It makes a difference in that setup. How would I run my volume control on the server? Is there a variable in convert.conf that I could apply to a Sox command or something like that?

Fixed volume for SB3 means offer volume control, but ignore the player volume and always output 100%. And that's a great solution, as it allows 3rd party code like DenonSerial and Denon AVP Control to sync the amp/receiver gain to the apparent Squeezebox volume. To do that properly on Touch, all that's needed is what Jim suggested: add a UI on Touch to lock the output (this doesn't need any code in SBS or MySB; we've already established precedent for settings that reside 100% locally on Squeezeplay devices). I haven't bothered to write a better patch because 1) I personally have no need for this and 2) submitting a patch just makes me more invested in a bug, and more annoyed if Logitech rejects or ignores my work. From Logitech's handling of Jim's bug, it seems likely they'll never implement this for Touch, so I'd likely end up flustered if I submitted a proper fix.

Its easy to hack something up like peter did, or even a simple applet. The problem is doing it "right" is complicated. Volume control settings are handled in at least 7 different files and include stuff in the server as well as the player code. It certainly can be done but its not a 2 minute task. Since similar stuff has already been done for previous players it part of the server interface as well, so there needs to be syncing between player UI and server UI and prefs for each. Someone has to make a decision as to how this is all going to work and then bring together all the little pieces scattered around that are needed to implement it. Having both a server UI and a player UI have made things like this quite a bit more complicated. Its not that it can't be done, but that to do it "right" is not trivial.

If you're using analog output, you've just raised the noise floor about 25 dB (volume 50 = about -25 dB gain, theoretical noise floor is about -100 dB). If you're using digital out with Red Book content, you might be losing some data --IIRC, the Squeezebox DAC uses 24 bits, so if you turn it low enough, the Squeezebox has to start discarding bits. If you're using 24 bit hi-res content, you need 100% digital out to preserve all the music. The general recommendation is to use volume levels of at least 80-100 for critical listening. Personally I fix the volume so I can sync the fictional volume with my amp's volume; this way, I can use a Squeezebox Controller anywhere in my house to adjust my Denon amp"s volume, even if I'm listening to another audio source. My old amp wasn't that nice, but I still locked the Squeezebox volume so it matched the other components. I only really use Squeezebox volume control for the systems where the Squeezebox is the only music source. -- peterw http://www.tux.org/~peterw/ Free plugins: 'AllQuiet' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/AllQuiet.html) 'Auto Dim/AutoDisplay' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/AutoDisplay.html) 'BlankSaver' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/BlankSaver.html) 'ContextMenu' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/ContextMenu.html) 'DenonSerial' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/DenonSerial.html) 'FuzzyTime' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/FuzzyTime.html) 'KidsPlay' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/KidsPlay.html) 'KitchenTimer' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/KitchenTimer.html) 'PlayLog' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/PlayLog.html) 'PowerCenter/BottleRocket' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/PowerCenter.html) 'SaverSwitcher' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/SaverSwitcher.html) 'SettingsManager' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/SettingsManager.html) 'SleepFade' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/SleepFade.html) 'StatusFirst' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/StatusFirst.html) 'SyncOptions' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/SyncOptions.html) 'VolumeLock' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/VolumeLock.html) peterw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2107 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77837 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

Well, Playback.lua is only for the player part of Squeezeplay, it has nothing to do with the Controller part and it mostly driven by SlimProto. The volume control code works by translating volume levels (0-100) to a Replay gain value ramp (using a translation table) from 0 to 65536 (that's 16 Bits!) and adding the replay gain values to that. I assume you get clipping at 100% if you try to make something even louder (NOT clipping in the audio, it just doesn't get any louder), my understanding is that replay gain will work +/-0 on average. You could use a similar mechanism for balance although if you want to operate at 100% volume you would then always have to go for negative balance values. -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote, at penguinlovesmusic.com pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77837 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch

[SlimDevices: Touch] How to lock audio output at 100% (I think)
I've only verified this with analog outs (actually, just the headphone jack), but for those of you who want your Touch to always play at 100%, try this: - In Home > Settings > Advanced > Remote login, enable SSH - SSH in as root, password 1234 - Back up the file you're about to edit: Code: cp -p /usr/share/jive/jive/audio/Playback.lua /usr/share/jive/jive/audio/Playback.lua.bak - Edit /usr/share/jive/jive/audio/Playback.lua with 'vi', replacing the line Code: decode:audioGain(data.gainL, data.gainR) which you should find around line #819 with Code: decode:audioGain(65536, 65536) - Reboot your Touch (use the 'reboot' command) - For good measure, use Home > Settings > Advanced > Remote login and disable SSH After you've done this, Touch will behave like a Squeezebox Classic with its volume control disabled -- you'll see onscreen volume indication, the IR remote will make that volume indication change, as will other mechanisms like the touchscreen and web UI. But the audio output will be locked at full volume. Please let me know if this really does seem to work for those of you using your Touch regular analog outs and digital outputs. If so, I'll make a nice patch for Erland's Patch Installer applet so this is easier to apply. -- peterw http://www.tux.org/~peterw/ Free plugins: 'AllQuiet' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/AllQuiet.html) 'Auto Dim/AutoDisplay' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/AutoDisplay.html) 'BlankSaver' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/BlankSaver.html) 'ContextMenu' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/ContextMenu.html) 'DenonSerial' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/DenonSerial.html) 'FuzzyTime' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/FuzzyTime.html) 'KidsPlay' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/KidsPlay.html) 'KitchenTimer' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/KitchenTimer.html) 'PlayLog' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/PlayLog.html) 'PowerCenter/BottleRocket' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/PowerCenter.html) 'SaverSwitcher' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/SaverSwitcher.html) 'SettingsManager' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/SettingsManager.html) 'SleepFade' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/SleepFade.html) 'StatusFirst' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/StatusFirst.html) 'SyncOptions' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/SyncOptions.html) 'VolumeLock' (http://www.tux.org/~peterw/slim/VolumeLock.html) peterw's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2107 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77837 ___ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
