As I said in my response to your Github issue, you are mistaken when you refer to the AVR volume scale as a percentage. It is, in fact, a decibel range, whether you choose to display it on a scale of 0 to 98 or -79.5 to 18, as the Denon allows you to do. The linear 0-100 percent scale of the player does not directly correlate to the 0-98 decibel scale of the AVR, which is logarithmic rather than linear. An increase of 3dB at any point in the range is a doubling of perceived volume. The plugin uses an algorithm based on psychoacoustics to translate between the two scales. 'Here' (https://pulsarinstruments.com/news/understanding-decibels-decibel-scale-and-noise-measurement-units) is an article you might want to read for further information on the decibel scale. To get back to your problem, I would suggest you ensure that the incremental change value in whatever client apps you use is set to as low a value as possible, especially when listening at low levels. I have found that a value of +/-2 is ideal for use with the plugin. Thanks for your input and I hope this information is helpful.
