Hi, When I play a video in Mplayer the volume is too low. (yes all of the volume bars are maxed out)

So I did some research. I found this: http://howto.wikia.com/wiki/Howto_in...maximum_volume
Which is from this: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/man/en/...MPLAYER%20ONLY)

How do I make mplayer do this on the tablet without always starting it from xterm?

Can I put it in a config file? The only one I know about is ~/.mplayer/config But if I add the command line optipns mplayer dosent want to start.

So how do I do this? Has anyone ever done this?

Thanks!

I'm guessing... posting without testing, that mplayer will remember set volume. Run mplayer from command line and set your desired volume with 0 and 9 keys as I recall. I'd expect that volume setting to still be tthere when using the mplayer gui.

Im already at 100% volume, this command will allow you to set a new max % up to 1000%. I don't want to go that high, but that is the idea, to uncap the max volume.

Use /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf to set it. Or the config in your home folder.

I just added

Code:
softvol = yes
softvol-max = 500

It works perfectly!

This probably would also fix the 2008HE quiet mplayer problem.
