Description higuita 2019-03-09 18:22:57 UTC
right now the mouse scroll wheel controls the volume, i would prefer to switch to channel switch, but right now we can't control the mouse wheel action

So please allow customization of the mouse wheel action

Actually, the mouse scroll wheel is context-sensitive. Its action depends on where the mouse position is:

- inside the channel list menu, it scrolls the channels;
- on the top of the volume bar, it changes volume;
- at the reproduction window, it changes the volume [1];
- at the position bar, it changes the position while playing videos [1].

[1] There was a bug there. Just fixed.

It should be possible to add support for it to switch the channel, but it is not too trivial, as the media widget code is the same for both DVB and video play. Also, I'm not so sure where to add an option for such kind of configuration.

If you want, feel free to submit us patches for such feature. Otherwise, I'll keep this bug opened as a reminder.

Sorry, I don't speak English, I use a translator.
Fault,
Kaffeine, as you scroll up and down the mouse, the volume increases up. It just regulates. No volume down. 
The same error occurs on multiple computers. System: Kubuntu 18.04
The error persists during the 20.04 update. 
Is there a solution to the error?
