Given the recent spate of activity here on the list, please have a look
at this repost of mine, which went unanswered, from a couple of months ago.
Thanks.

i was trying to get trplayer to work with vsound and i get silence.
if i run vsound -f vsound.wav realplay
i have to turn up the volume control (from 0) manually each time i start
realplay, - then i get output in the vsound.wav file
if i use trplayer i get silence as it seems the volume is set to 0 each
time.
note: There is NO SOUND HARDWARE in this linux box!!
(Volume=0 always appears in .RealNetworks_RealMediaSDK_60 after exiting
realplay or trplayer.)
There was some discussion about this ages ago on this list, and it does
appear from the SDK docs that there is a volume control for the
audiooutput in IRMAAudioStream / IRMAVolume::SetVolume()
and there is also control for the device volume in
IRMAAudioDevice::SetVolume()
I had a go at trying to code a call to SetVolume() in main.cc in
trplayer, but i don't know enough about COM / C to get this to work. I
have given up for the moment and am looking for another solution, but
maybe some wizard out there who knows COM and the real SDK could have a
look? I believe it would complete trplayer
like i said, i don't code much and this is beyond me and i don't have
time to learn COM right now, but if somebody could give me a hand to
create an object for IRMAAudioStream so as i can call
IRMAvolume::SetVolume(), i could figure it out from there and would be
happy to code in, say command line switch for volume, and keys to
control volume during playback.
btw, my goal here is to reencode a real stream to mp3 (icecast/shoutcast
etc)
thanks
Keith.
