Help Needed - Volume Control

Pages: << < (4/5) > >>

Zebidee:

Like I said, ahofle's software solution is elegant and deserves kudos.  So is mine.  The software solution is software dependant, and you have to press a button to make it work.  Mine doesn't need a button to be pressed.  It is intuitive, and anyone can operate it without being told how to.  Each to their own.

Ginsu Victim:

You don't HAVE to press a button. A hot key is an option.
I just have it setup that way.

As for being told how, I have a very nice instruction card on my bezel.

I will be changing out the speakers soon, though, and will have an independent volume knob that doesn't rely on software.

I'm definitely NOT arguing against volume knobs, it's just nice to know we have options.   :)

I'm going to give CabVol a shot... I've been wondering how to deal with the volume levels across various games and this seems perfect.  Now I just have to think of a good configuration.  I'm thinking pause as the hot key and up and down on the joystick as the volume control (I don't have a spinner or trackball).

Ginsu Victim:

I was using pause plus the joystick, but didn't like the fact that I was always pausing games and couldn't hear the volume changes. Not sure what your best option would be.

Ahhh... good point!  Maybe I'll map it to P1 Start or something... I'll figure it out (I hope).   :cheers:
