I'm using an IQaudiO Pi-DAC+ and it has an built-in volume control (Dont know if the old one has this). This can now be controlled via LMS if you set -V PCM option in Squeezelite. But if you have the volume set to 100% always and use an external volume control there is no difference. /Lars ------------------------------------------------------------------------ larskb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63756 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
