can't control volume

Post by prosodyspeaks »

hi,

i'm using MMW 5, licensed and can't control volume while MM plays in 'exclusive' mode. system volume, player volume, per app volume - none of them affect playback volume.

all other programs work as expected - only mediamonkey is affected.

please help!!

Hi,
Exclusive mode is made in such way so that playback device controls volume.

My suggestion is that unless you really have high-end sound card (DAC), amp and speakers/headphones along with Hi-Res Audio simply just disable Exclusive mode.

Also I would suggest to disable Allow applications to take exclusive access to device under additional sound device properties.

NOTE: Some apps override that by controlling internal Volume, but then that breaks Bit perfect playback, which is the point of using Exclusive Mode in WASAPI.
Best regards,
