Anyone know why pcp_volume and v_bang wouldn't work with my system setup?

Winamp2
SBLive
Win2K
the x.7 litestep build

Alternatively, anyone know of a good module that can mute/unmute the volume apart from those two?

try lsslider

lsslider hangs my system.

even if i'm using a completely stripped down theme with nothing loaded except netloadmodule and lsslider, lsslider hangs my system.

any theme that uses lsslider hangs my system unless i manually edit out the line to load it.

I don't know why... (she swallowed a fly.. perhaps she'll die)

i use V_Bang.dll
*hotkey .none MUTE !mute [0]


i think you need [0] there, to tell it to use the default windows sound device. or maybe that's the master channel .. either way, you need it ;]

If I use
!Mute [0]

it says "Exception during bang command execution. Please contact the module author. Bang parameters: [0]"

If I try
!Mute 0

...then I don't get the error message, but nothing else happens either..

I can try muting any number and nothing happens.

psynapse, do you use win2k? I've suspicions the mute bang modules only work with 9x systems..

If you only want to mute winamp2, you can use the last geekamp which have a !amp_setvolume or something similar

hmmmm i would need it to export variables that i can store for later use, ie

*script exec !varset WAmpVol $Amp_Volume$
*script exec !amp_setvolume 0

then to unmute,

*script exec !amp_setvolume WAmpVol

Anyone know of a way to read the current winamp volume level into a script var?

guess this is a bit late, but just add the line *hotkey .none volmute !mute [0] to your hotkey.rc
