#6621: media player volume control algorythm needs work ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: stargatefan | Owner: nobody Type: bug | Status: assigned Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Applications/MediaPlayer | Version: R1/alpha2 Resolution: | Keywords: volume controls Blocked By: | Has a Patch: 0 Platform: All | Blocking: ---------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by stippi): Ok, part of the problem may be that you are mistaken about the purpose of the volume slider. At it's middle position, the volume is at 100%. With a correctly mixed track, the peak meter will go all the way to the right for the loudest parts of the track. At it's right position, the volume shall be increased by factor 2. This is only useful for tracks which for some reason are too quiet. A correctly mixed track will have bad distortion at factor 2, and the peak meter will show it. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/6621#comment:5> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
