Adding deatures to a button? IE: Making a macro? - 18/04/2002 16:12

When I hit the top button while paying an MP3 (or the remote equivalent) I'd like song to pause and the volume to go down x db. Then, when I resume the music, I'd like the volume to ramp up to the previous value over a period of y seconds to avoid a huge volume burst.

Is this possible? If so, how can I do it? I looked around but couldn't find anything like that.

Thanks in advance. Hopefully my last question for a while!

Great forum/community by the way!

I don't think it could easily be done with a macro, but Hijack could certainly do it. Possibly the easiest way is by hijacking (can you hijack hijack? ) the volume adjust code to start at a 0 multiplier and ramp back up to 1 and if it's enabled let it ramp to whatever volume from there.

Genixia, you've dabbled around this area of code, what do you reckon? I really don't have time at the moment. I'm currently implementing configurable file download names and trying to get my Alpine MBUS changer to work. The changer stuff is almost there too. I have a program that can basically drive the changer now.
