I love sndvol for volume control in Windows compared to other stuff (default win 11 one is awful) but it has one issue.
say you have overall volume set to 50%... if you accidentally increase the volume of an output to 51%.. global volume goes up too.
the volume per program/stream should be always, a percentage of the overall volume, not 100% percent of what is available overall
aka
TLDR volume sliders per program should go 0 to 100% regardless of where system volume is set and that should be the percentage of system.
aaaa and I can't control volumes in the new one with a scroll wheel, what sort of half assed shit is this microsoft. gaaaaah
@noiob thank mew
@LottieVixen oh, I completely forget I run it but if you want a really nice sound mixer in the task bar https://eartrumpet.app is the goat
@noiob used to use it years ago, trying not to get attached to anything windows...but yeah I should have thought about this
but also the comparison at first was just sndvol (mostly) being better than any other native to windows thing other than this one feature
@noiob oh wow this is kinda flashy now but.. this is what microsoft should have done... wow this is beautiful
@noiob pretty much reminds me of...whatever steamdeck uses by default (and kde plasma + pulseaudio iirc I had on my desktop)
@noiob TIL.. I just wish it looked like sndvol.. it just looks so much better
ty i didn't know this existed though. I'd only clicked the sys tray one and couldn't find everything I wanted (mostly overall volume but also needing to scroll past inputs and output devices sucks)
