Volume over 100%

[lamonda92]

Hi, really enjoying your application. I switched from windows to linux and wanted something similar to this https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/volumouse.html, so your application is the equivalent of that in the linux ecosystem. I would like to point out that in linux mint that I use (probably in ubuntu as well) you set the max volume to the percentage you want, even above 100%, and the volume buttons of your laptop/keyboard respect that threshold. Your application goes above and beyond that limit, over-amplifying sometimes the output sound, thus creating distortion. Is there's a line of code I can add to your script to fix this? Thanks in advance for your help, and really enjoying your app.

Thank you so much for your encouragement. You can use amixer instead of pactl. For exemple amixer set Master 120% will do a volume to 100% and no more So if you want to inscrease untill 100% instead of subprocess.run("pactl set-sink-volume @DEFAULT_SINK@ +5% & pid=$!",shell=True) do subprocess.run("amixer set Master 5%+ & pid=$!",shell=True) Look at the old version of volumouse : https://github.com/pzim-devdata/Tools-for-Linux/tree/master/Volumouse All is explain and choose "Volumouse_amixer_right.py" and "Volumouse_amixer_left.py" to download

Type amixer -h for help

I hope it will help :-)

Try this file, I have made this just for you : I have added lines 529,530, 548,549, 564,565, 580,581 if you want to check the code. Simply extract it and replace volumouse.py in your destination folder volumouse.py.zip

Don't forget to give me a star :1st_place_medal:

I have published a new version on Github with the ability to configure max volume for each card with python3 volumouse.py -c Thank you for the idea ! ;-)
