Does this support windows vista? I tried it, and it didn't do anything to my volume while on vista, I haven't tried it on xp yet.

I really doubt it. I've no desire to access or install Vista. Apologies. |

I was just asking because at the time I was using headphones, and had to plug then directly into the computer and they don't have a volume control, and I use xp and vista, but now I got everything working, and don't use vista that much.

Good to hear. So, does it work in Vista? I'm curious to know.

Cool program! Just in case you're looking for ideas  , what do you think of adding an on-screen display of the volume level (and mute state) as the hotkeys are pressed (if that's even possible)? |

Thank you. Just in case you're looking for ideas , what do you think of adding an on-screen display of the volume level (and mute state) as the hotkeys are pressed (if that's even possible)? I went with the tray icon approach since it's always visible (provided you don't auto-hide the taskbar). However, what you suggest is easily done. What did you have in mind? Coloured bars? |

Yeah, something along those lines. Maybe the word "Volume" next to a series of short vertical bars in the middle of the screen, with a bar for every 10% or so. Not sure what to do about the mute state...either a "Mute" and "Unmute" replacing the bars, or simply an "x" for mute and the bars for whatever the current volume level is for unmute. I agree, the system tray icon is pretty handy (I like Volumetray's "BlackSquare" myself)...on-screen bars would just mean not having to look down to find it. It's really no biggie, I like your program as it is; the bars would just give it that little bit extra to make it perfect. Thanks! |

Hi skwire. Thanx for sharing this.
I love the leftclick mute functionality & the small mixer panel.
I'd also like to see the volume represented by a simple bar in the tray like VolumeTray. Preferrably not green & red because that would be too similar to various task managers.
NirSorft Volumouse allows you to change the volume with the mouse only (no keyboard required) which is why I'll stick with that for now.
I made the mistake of opeining the options dialogue when it was already opened:
---------------------------
Volt.exe
---------------------------
Error: The same variable cannot be used for more than one control per window. The current thread will exit.
Specifically: vddl_TrayMenu_Click_1
Line#
---> 168: Gui,3: Add,DropDownList,xs+55 ys+20 w130 h20 Choose%ddl_TrayMenu_Click_1% AltSubmit R4 vddl_TrayMenu_Click_1,Mute|Volume Slider|Playback Mixer Panel|Recorder Mixer Panel
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

You're welcome. I'd also like to see the volume represented by a simple bar in the tray like VolumeTray. Preferrably not green & red because that would be too similar to various task managers.
Hmmm...I'm not sure what you mean here since you can use VolumeTray skins with Volt. Is there a certain VolumeTray skin you're talking about? If not, can you provide an image of what you want and I can make you a custom skin for Volt. NirSorft Volumouse allows you to change the volume with the mouse only (no keyboard required) which is why I'll stick with that for now.
This is a great utility. I don't use the default Windows shell so, unfortunately, some of its keyboard-less functionality doesn't work for me. I do have a lot of its keyboard-less functionality built into my main AutoHotkey script, though. I made the mistake of opeining the options dialogue when it was already opened:
Aye, thanks for telling me this. I'll fix it in the next release. Also, for the next release, I have implemented a simple OSD per jbeek's request. Here's a screenshot:  It's bitmap based, so it's easy to make your own customised OSD bar. What do you think? |

Hmmm...I'm not sure what you mean here That's cause I'm an idiot who didn't realise the skins were for the system tray icon. :loopy: While were on the subject, I don't know why you don't use a skin with the bar as default. I'd also prefer the bar to take up the whole width of the icon but now I'm getting picky. for the next release, I have implemented a simple OSD per jbeek's request. It's bitmap based, so it's easy to make your own customised OSD bar. What do you think?
I like to have the system tray icon so that you can see the volume without having to change it, but when it comes to changing, an OSD is optimum & that one looks just fine. |

Yeah, I use VolumeTray's "BlackSquare" tray icon ... it's simple in that it is a black square with a vertical bar indicating volume level, and a big red "X" on top when mute is on. |
