Hi there.
JustFYI. I brought up the linear volume control issue some time back. I completely rewrote (for myself) the linear volume control for external audio devices, replacing the old stuff from squeezelite. I'm running it for a couple of months now. The VC now follows a simple logarithmic curve and is giving me a 1dB/click change. I tested it on several RPI HAT DACs that I have around here. What a nice and never known experience. ;) The volume gets nicely and consistent up&down and at e.g. 6 clicks (94) you know that you're at -6dB. While running the tests I even found a VC related driver issue on the Allo Katana DAC. It took me a while to get them looking into it. Now it's fixed. Now also the Katana does 1dB/click. :) I also issued trouble-tickets on LMS. I mentioned the issues (ambigous and swapped values on LMS VC) related to the squeezelite volumecurve. It's been a while. I pretty much doubt that anybody will ever look into it. I did also figure out the VC algorithm/curve is hardcoded on LMS. While looking into it all that I realized the probably the best way to cope with such an issue would be to think about a squeezellite-player-api on LMS in the future. squeezelite is probably the most used agent on LMS nowadays. And it'll remain that way for a while. Things like e.g. volume curve algorithm could then easily moved to squeezelite. Though I doubt that something like that will ever happen either. Anyhow. I just wanted to let you know. Enjoy squeezelite. :::' my audioblog - latest series: RaspBerry PI - \"The Audio Engine\" ' (http://soundcheck-audio.blogspot.com)::: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ soundcheck's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34383 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
