    Volume control

    I'm working on a project where some buttons will play a sequence of Mpeg1 files( yes, this project again- see my last few posts if you really want all the sordid details). Everything is fine but the client has complained that when viewing the sequences the volume keeps getting reset to its default value whenever a new video loads. Is there anyway to control this? I couldn't find anything.

    Is there anyway at all to get access to windows volume controls? Now I'm hearing that some testers who had their CD volume turned down weren't hearing anything.Some of those had no idea there was a seperate volume control for the CD or how to access it.

    Try This

    It's a sample app that uses a DLL I wrote.

    Can you check that file you are linking me to. After unzipping it, everytime I open the folder, Explorer crashes. I saw a file named green-on.png and a folder named fcsound before it crashes.

    Hmmmmm. That file has been downloaded more times than I care to count, and I've not had any problems before nor has anyone contacted me to let me of any issues.

    Anyow, I rezipped it and put it back out there as the same name. Try downloading it again and let me know.

    Sorry for the hassle.

    We would be more than glad to provide the bandwidth for those downloads if you like. Schedules have clashed a bit but in the next couple months there'll be an awesome user exchange up but until then I can upload your .dlls to our server if you'd rather not have so many hits... Let me know.

    The bandwidth isn't a problem at all. Most of the zips I have are 500K or less. I do appreciate the offer.

    Looking forward to the Exchange! Should be a cool place to share ideas and techniques.

    Re: Volume control

    It worked fine this time. This looks like it would do the job, I'm just afraid the non-standard look of it might confuse my client. I realize I can customize this any way I want but what would be perfect would be just to call up the standard windows volume interface.

    Perfect! I guess I could have found that on my own if I wasn't so frazzled from working on so many projects at once. Thanks again.

    Re: Volume control

    It helps that that was the thread that sparked me to write the DLL. It was an easy one for me to remember.
