[Bug 298044] Re: volume mouse wheel
This is a quick-fix for the mentioned problem. This patch changes Totem's wheel behavior to volume control. The real solution should add a preference, like a checkbox Use mouse wheel to control volume to totem.ui, but I haven't found a way to edit toem.ui file properly (glade didn't work). Then the following should be done in some way like if(preference is use_wheel_for_volume) { new behavior } else { default }... --- src/totem-object.c 2010-04-14 12:35:45 + +++ src/totem-object.c 2010-06-14 23:50:06 + @@ -3748,10 +3748,12 @@ switch (direction) { case GDK_SCROLL_UP: - totem_action_seek_relative (totem, SEEK_FORWARD_SHORT_OFFSET * 1000); + //totem_action_seek_relative (totem, SEEK_FORWARD_SHORT_OFFSET * 1000); + totem_action_volume_relative (totem, VOLUME_UP_OFFSET); break; case GDK_SCROLL_DOWN: - totem_action_seek_relative (totem, SEEK_BACKWARD_SHORT_OFFSET * 1000); + //totem_action_seek_relative (totem, SEEK_BACKWARD_SHORT_OFFSET * 1000); + totem_action_volume_relative (totem, VOLUME_DOWN_OFFSET); break; default: retval = FALSE; -- volume mouse wheel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/298044 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 298044] Re: volume mouse wheel
The scroll wheel doesn't work while the player is on fullscreen, that's a known issue, it's fixed upstream and being tracked on bug 303045, totem volume control only reacts if: you hover the mouse over it just like rhythmbox does and if you click on the widget and scroll on it, that works fine aswell here, don't see why it should be different, is that working for you? the bug is confusing now since you added a few extra comments there, if the previously described is working for you this bug must be closed, otherwise please edit the description of the report because as said this is now very confusing, thanks in advance. ** Changed in: totem (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- volume mouse wheel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/298044 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

To reproduce result just open Totem and roll the mouse wheel anywhere except in the tiny area at the bottom right of the screen. Note that volume is unchanged. -- volume mouse wheel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/298044 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 298044] Re: volume mouse wheel
The mouse wheel only skips along the timeline (unless its in fullscreen mode and the mouse arrow is actually on the timeline) it cant be configured to adjust the volume. I don't see how this bug is 'incomplete'. I have already shown that i use Ubuntu 8.10 and Totem 2.24.3. What further information is required? The only way i can change volume is by making sure my mouse is inside the red splodge in the attached image (if i have managed to attach it) ** Attachment added: volume.gif http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20110182/volume.gif -- volume mouse wheel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/298044 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I have seen a few other people with long comments where most of the length was just a repeat of the thread.

[Bug 298044] Re: volume mouse wheel
The mouse wheel is such a perfect way to increase or decrease the volume. It's crazy that linux media-players don't seem to have this feature. I've found a way that's slightly easier than described above but it's still way to awkward and demands precision, usually at times i really don't want to miss the action. -- volume mouse wheel https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/298044 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to totem in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Also, please answer these questions: * Is this reproducible? * If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug? This will greatly aid us in tracking down your problem and resolving this bug.

Re: [Bug 298044] Re: volume mouse wheel
H, interesting. Do you have to have the mouse pointer over the loudspeaker icon? In Zoom Player i used to be able to have the mouse almost anywhere and even without the taskbar or controls panels showing the wheel would still work. Re: your questions 1 2, errr it just happens (or rather the volume change doesn't happen) all the time on my machine. I'll investigate different setups now that i know it does wok elsewhere, i thought it was just a feature of linux at the moment. I've just noticed the space bar does pause :) Thanks for getting back to me on this issue too.

Re: [Bug 298044] Re: volume mouse wheel
Oh dear. The mouse wheel usually skips the movie backward and forward along the timeline EXCEPT when the mouse arrow is hovering over the timeline indicator. Lol, sounds like i might have really stuffed something. I haven't touched the source code or recompiled anything, i'm fairly sure its a standard install.
