Setting Initial Playback Volume would be handy

Hi,
Anyone know how to set the initial playback volume (eg to 50%) using a config.xml?
Thanks,
Neo

You could adjust the volumes for the songs in iTunes
(and then update the iPod with iTunes). However, that
might not help that much.
So what is the solution ? I have the same problem as jmarcin4. When I listen to music or videos with a headset I have to turn the sound to max to get an average level.
I have uploaded my music using the SoundCheck feature but I am not really certain I understand what it does or how it does it. Is this the problem/solution ?
Thanks for any tip.

  • Set playback volume check? Where can I find this

    Where can I find the preferences section to Set playback volume check?

    Hello Kevin57013,
    It sounds like you are wanting to reduce the maximum volume of your phone or enable Sound Check. These are in the Music Settings named Volume Limit, and Sound Check respectively:

  • Volume up shortcut not working `/usr/bin/amixer set Master playback`

    I used to use something like
    /usr/bin/amixer set Master playback 2+
    to increase/decrease volume but it seems to have stopped working after update and changing to GNOME3 from XFCE 4.10. Same in terminal, has the syntax changed?

    In the console:
    [jiewmeng@JM Nodebook]$ /usr/bin/amixer set Master playback 2-
    Simple mixer control 'Master',0
    Capabilities: pvolume pswitch pswitch-joined penum
    Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right
    Limits: Playback 0 - 65536
    Mono:
    Front Left: Playback 21533 [33%] [on]
    Front Right: Playback 21533 [33%] [on]
    [jiewmeng@JM Nodebook]$ /usr/bin/amixer set Master playback 2-

    Mono:
    Front Left: Playback 21531 [33%] [on]
    Front Right: Playback 21531 [33%] [on]
    notice theres no change ... 33%. Oh then I did Ctrl+Alt+F2 to go into console. Then did the same with same results. Then did with sudo and it worked. It worked b4 without sudo? Maybe I messed up something? Btw, this happened after I did `sudo pacman -Syyu gnome`. Maybe it changed some config? Or maybe its the upgrades?

  • IPod Shuffle: How to set the maximum volume limit

    How do I get back to the volume default I set at the onset of using my shuffle?
    I have speakers in my Ski Helmet and would now like to turn up the volume louder than I have currently set for my in ear earpods.
    Any help is appreciated.

    If you're talking about the Maximium Volume Limit:
    Setting the Maximum Volume Limit
    You can set a limit for the maximum volume on iPod shuffle. You can also set a
    password in iTunes to prevent this setting from being changed by someone else.
    If you’ve set a volume limit on iPod shuffle, the status light blinks orange three times if
    you try to increase the volume beyond the limit.
    To set the maximum volume limit for iPod shuffle:
    1 Set iPod shuffle to the desired maximum volume.
    2 Connect iPod shuffle to your computer.
    3 In iTunes, select iPod shuffle in the Source pane.
    4 Click the Settings tab.
    5 Select “Limit maximum volume.”
    6 Drag the slider to the desired maximum volume.
    The initial slider setting shows the volume the iPod shuffle was set to when you
    selected the “Limit maximum volume” checkbox.
    7 To require a password to change this setting, click the lock and enter a password.
    If you set a password, you must enter it before you can change or remove the
    maximum volume limit.
    Note: The volume level may vary if you use different earphones or headphones.
    To remove the maximum volume limit:
    1 Connect iPod shuffle to your computer.
    2 In iTunes, select iPod shuffle in the Source pane.
    3 Click the Settings tab.
    4 Deselect “Limit maximum volume.”
    Enter the password, if required.
    Note: If you forget the password, you can restore iPod shuffle. See “Updating and
    Restoring iPod shuffle Software” on page 26 for more information.

  • How to programmatically set initial password when a user is created in OID

    We are using the odihragent synchronization process to automatically create users in OID when an employee record is created. We would like to set the initial password for the newly created user to their last name + the last 4 digits of their SSN.
    The odihragent process is successfully creating the user in OID and populates the last name and the last 4 digits of the SSN in OID. According to an open SR I have with Oracle, we cannot use the odihragent process to set the initial password because any time the employee record is updated, the synchronization process will reset the password to last name + SSN. They have recommended that we use a pl/sql plug-in to set the password using the WHEN_ADD plug-in procedure.
    I am new to using OID and plug-ins and the examples provided in the Developer's Guide are limited.
    I would like to know if anyone else is using plug-ins or another process to set initial passwords when a user is created? If you are using plug-ins would you be willing to share a code sample?

    I am surprised that I have not received any responses... Surely there are others who are experienced with programmatically setting passwords when new users are programmatically created. Does anyone have any pointers on how to best accomplish this?

    The automatic restore process AFAIK will initiate a D2 restore. And if
    there's no other DC, sysvol might be gone.
    I really would prefer to have control - this means I would do a D4.
    Absolutely I would :)

  • Event ID - 13568 The File Replication Service has detected that the replica set "DOMAIN SYSTEM VOLUME (SYSVOL SHARE)" is in JRNL_WRAP_ERROR.

    We had a major storm over the weekend which caused an unexpected shutdown.
    I am having an issue with one of my domain controller with Event ID 13568
    The domain controller which is running Windows Server 2012 was added successfully just a couple of days ago.
    I do not have a full backup of the server yet.
    It only has a GC role on it.
    What are the things I should look out for before I attempt to Enable Journal Wrap Automatic Restore and set it to 1?
    Would it be safer to just demote the server and start from scratch?

  • Query to set initial values

    Hi all,
    Is it possible to use queries to set initial values or change existing values?  For example, we are adding in a new sales employee that will be our sales rep for customers in a certain area.  Would it be possible to run a query that would set the Sales Employee field in the BP Master Data as this new sales rep if the customer is in that area?  If yes, what is the general process for using queries to set values in this manner (we have other things we would like to use this for as well, if its possible)?
    Thanks for the help

    Hi Todd,
    The best way to tackle this is probably to use a query to extract the business partners you wish to update and then use the Data Transfer Workbench to update the Business Partners in question.
    You could also add a Formatted Search to the Business Partner screen so all new Business Partners default to the correct Sales Person based upon territory/address or whatever criteria you like.
    Cheers,
    Sean

  • Volume setting memory / startup volume

    does quicktime player or plugin have any setting to activate volume memory? thus it could remember the volume it was set at during last closing. if not, how about a way to set startup volume. i would prefer if the player and plugin started up with volume at 50%. starting at 100% everytime blows me out of my seat. i googled this question and poked around in quicktime's preferences/settings to no avail. thanks in advance for your time and replies.

    Post what exactly have you tried.
    Read the wiki.

  • Playback volume variation

    My songs playback at different volumes from each other so I find myself constantly having to adjust the volume setting (and occasionally going deaf). Is there a way to fix this from some menu?
    Thank You

    You can adjust the playback volume preference for a tune by getting the information and adjusting the playback volume in the the options. If you choose multiple files at once and get info it will adjust them all.

  • Ipod playback volume

    I use my ipod for Group Fitness classes & always play it at Max volume & then use the stereo system that I hook up to to adjust volume.
    I've noticed that the playback volume is not as loud as it used to be even though my ipod is on max & so is the stereo system.
    Is there a way to increase the volume on output when I playback?
    I also have noticed that some songs thatI purchase from iTunes may not play as loud as others.
    HELP!

    Has the *Volume limit* been set to less than maximum? You can tell this quickly by turning the volume on the *Now Playing* screen to maximum and if the speaker icon stays as a speaker, the answer is no, it isn't. But if the speaker icon changes to a padlock when you get to "maximum", then the *Volume Limit* _is set below maximum._
    On the iPod, go into *Settings/Volume Limit.* The small up-arrow under the scroll bar is the "limit setting". Turn the scroll wheel to increase the maximum and press the centre button to set it. The bar will return to a lower level. Don't worry about that - it's supposed to, the arrow is what you need to look at. +(Do not press the play button to set the volume limit unless you are going to remember the combination that you will be asked to set as well.)+
    Why/how did this happen you ask? I don't know, but as I confirmed my instructions to you (I have an iPod Touch as well, so I get confused +at my age)+ my maximum volume reduced when I came out of the menu - something I realised by turning to max on the *Now Playing* screen and seeing the padlock, which I hadn't seen before!

  • My playback volume on 10 is SOOOOOO low!  What happened??

    10.4.1.10 - My playback volume is abysmal.  Other things playback with plenty of volume.  I crank up my PC volume, ITunes volume, my external speakers volume and it's just poo!  Websites with sound are great.  It's not just new music, it's all music.  That "sound check" button can be on, or off, no difference...  I can crank up the volume on each song, no difference...UGH!!  What happened and how the heck do I fix it?!  I mean really?!?!  This is no good, no good I say!

    Figured it out...
    In the bottm right where you choose multiple speakers, at some point, I modified the computer output to be lower... that setting stuck and wasnt 'sliding.
    This is a default in the design for sure.  But am thrilled I figured it out!

  • Volume slider and playback volume...

    Hi
    I recently purchased a 120GB Classic and, due to the fact that I don't hear too well, you won't be surprised I find it too quiet (if only I'd known about the 'cap' beforehand so I could have got one from the USA...).
    I bought a half-decent pair of headphones, which has helped, and also got an inline amp (which increases the 'noise' as much as the volume, so I'm not that sold on it...). Anyway, I had the idea of bumping up the volume on iTunes and re-syncing all the songs, so I did.
    I wasn't sure what the effect on quality would be, so I knocked it up about halfway and resynced the iPod. Which took forever.
    I'm pretty sure the iPod is now louder, but I may be imagining it - I'm tempted to put the bar all the way to the top, but if the increase is purely psychological it seems a waste of time (and it does take time!).
    So, does the volume slider affect iPod playback volume?
    Thanks for reading, and thanks again if you can help.

    So, does the volume slider affect iPod playback volume?
    No. If you increase the volume of a song in iTunes, all you do is make it so that the maximum volume on the iPod is reached before the volume bar is at full.
    For example, if you increase a track's volume in iTunes by +100% then when it's on the iPod you will find that that track hits it's maximum volume level at about half volume, and turning the iPod up to full volume will not increase the volume any higher after this point. A track which has not had it's volume altered in iTunes will reach exactly the same sound level, although of course you will need to turn the volume level of the iPod to full in this instance.

  • IPod Nana - Playback Volume Limit - Changes Locked

    I have been having problems with the Playback Volume limit. I set it at 50%, but then it was playing too softly. When I went to adjust, there was no Menu option to modify this. I saw another post that said to press and hold the Menu + center button, until the apple appears. This brought back the menu option.
    However, I do not remember putting a password (4 digit number) on it. I tried the combo I use for my iPhone, and I guess I used something different.
    Does anyone know how to erase the Volume Limit Combination Lock?
    Thanks!

    Try 0000 as the combination.
    If that does not work, you will need to Restore it to reset the combo.

  • Set "audio record volume"  (not amplitude)

    I can only use protools with a ipod attached as the "record volume" (destination for session files). any other powerbook uses it's own hard drive for this, but not mine. I've reinstalled pt7. no change
    once I came on to a page where you could set up audio volumes, and I can;t seem to get back to it.
    thanks anyone!

    Let me answer my own question. Its a protools thing-not a mac thing, like I thought. so if anyone cares- in protools7, menu bar/window-scroll to "workspace", and select what your different drives can do, either record or playback. I don't know why pt has the default as playback only.
