That's another reason why to incorporate the digital volume control into the calculations, it probably needs to be done in the firmware - which could re-calculate while playing the track when the volume is changed.
The more this gets analysed, the trickier it seems that incorprating the digital volume control would be. Probably the safe option is to just forget about it - in which case the fix can be done purely in SqueezeCenter, which ought to be much easier than fiddling with the firmware. -- cliveb Transporter -> ATC SCM100A ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30316 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
