Title: Sound configuration with the movie player
Post by: immortel on August 25, 2008, 07:24:09 PM
Hello,

LinuxMCE is installed and is working fine but I have some issues with the sound.

What I mean is if I play a mp3 with the audio player, it is working great but a movie with a dvd or a .avi, I have to increase the volume a lot of my tv to have a something descent. I'm pretty sure there is a configuration file somewhere that  set this.

Anyone can help me?

I finally found out how to adjust the volume.

1- Start a movie
2- Go in KDE while the movie is still running (to hear the sound)
3- Open terminal
4- Adjust the volume with Alsa Mixer (sudo alsamixer)
5- Save the configuration (sudo alsactl store)
6- (I don't know why) Go in the KDE's sound setting
7- Change a value and put it back, just to be able to click the "Apply" button and click on it

KDE will restart the sound system and your setting will be saved.

Hope it can help!!!!   ;D
