Description Wallace Lai 2007-08-27 09:18:29 UTC

System Info:  XP Sp2 ENU
MediaPlayer Version:  11

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Put a CD into the XP machine.
2.  Media Player 11 pops up automatically.
3.  Rip the tracks into WAV lossless format.
4.  Play the tracks with MediaPlayer with the volume at 50%.
5.  Notice the songs are pretty audible.
6.  Start SLimServer, rescan everything.
7.  Set the vlume at 5 or 6.
8.  Play the same songs.
9.  Notice the songs are not very audible.  (Volume of the speakers had not been changed.)
10.  Setting the volume of SlimServer to 8 or 9 makes it much more audible.

Note:  After the install, volume on SlimServer after install is 6 right now.

is it not better to keep the volume defaulted rather low as you would not want to have the higher volume on a fresh install and risk blowing up an expensive set of speakers/amp.

Please don't forget that slimserver is primarily there to drive the Hardware players

I don't see a compelling reason to change this behavior now.
