Volume always returns to mute
Last modified: 2004-10-07 22:19:28 UTC
Every time I stop or reboot my SB, the volume is returning to mute.
Hi Stuart, thanks for the report. Can you give a little more details? I can't seem to reproduce the problem here. Some detailed steps would be most useful. Thanks!
It's quite easy, just turn it off. However, I will test again with the latest update and V38
I had this problem for a while back with FW34-ish. It just disappeared and never came back. debugging with d_slimproto was the suggestion at the time, but I never got any fault while recording logs.
I had this happen once last night, but when I went back to try again I could not reproduce. Stuart, if you are able to reproduce this regularly, could you please suply a section of a log using d_slimproto?
With the latest updates, the problem seems to have gone away..
Just upgraded to the latest build + V39. This is re-occuring. I am playing WMA files. If I press pause and then play it says "Playing (muted)" and the volume is muted.
Created attachment 145 [details] Play, pause, play causing mute the last action I did here was pause and play and it said "playing muted". Here is the slim_proto_v log
?? any thoughts?
slimproto_v doesn't give the information needed. d_slimproto should. then, it will have to wait for Sean or Dean to have a look over it becuase I'm certainly no slimproto expert
Created attachment 148 [details] d_slimproto log OK, this time I was pausing and/or stopping (with volume on 40) and then pressing FWD. This caused the dong to skip, and start playing and the volume was on MUTE. Before I was getting mute after a pause and then play, but I couldn't re-produce today
? any update ?
how's this....I see it predictably, and I think I've found the problem. solution to come shortly.
Created attachment 168 [details] better mute handling instead of skipping out of face_volume if muted, only skip out if we're muted AND fading down. if fading up, we can handle the $vol * -1 in fade_volume so that there is just the one place. Remove the toggle from Player::power(); This solves the problem of the player being muted when doing the follow: press power while a song is playing, then press play to resume press pause while playing, then press play to resume. both conditions would come up muted for me, but now do not.
committed to cvs oct 7. try out the nightly and reopen if there is still a problem
