Description razrfalcon 2020-01-02 14:30:00 UTC
Volume control doesn't work. I don't have pulse-audio and kmix, so this is probably the issue. Is this intentional?

Console output:

Gross.

Are you using ALSA?
Comment 2 razrfalcon 2020-01-02 16:25:33 UTC
Yeap. All other applications work fine (Chrome, deadbeef, mpv).

What audio backend are you using ?

Elisa can be built with support for libvlc or Qt Multimedia. I suppose both are able to use alsa. I am not sure where your issue comes from.

I will need your help to understand and I hope fix this issue.
Comment 4 razrfalcon 2020-03-23 09:22:31 UTC
GStreamer.

I wasn't able to find a QML player example, so I will write a simple one later to see if this is a QtMultimedia bug or Elisa.
Comment 5 razrfalcon 2020-03-24 09:04:51 UTC
I wrote a simple QML video player based on the QML Video widget and the `volume` property works fine, so this is not a Qt/QML bug.
