Volume Lock

[Mayibongwe]

Download it from the add-on link here

Any way/chance of locking the volume control?
Could it be done as a plugin?

Above is the link to the thread that made me give this a go just to see if it'd be possible.
Looks to be working just fine in my brief testing.

Hi Mayibongwe
another nice plugin
do you think it could start at a value definite by the user and changed but the users just moving the volume slider?

for example , start musicbee with volume always set at 30% and increase moving only the sliders?
thanks

Hi gaiastar. I'm not sure l understand.
The idea behind the plugin was to disable the volume slider when ever the plugin was enabled.
Leaving the slider active would defeat the purpose of locking the volume, I think.

I may still be misunderstanding, so bear with me:
In the preferences (refer to my screenshot above), you are able to manually type in the volume percentage in order to permanently lock it at that level.
Is that not what you require?

Ah, I see what uu mean now.
I can add a checkbox in the preferences with something like "startup only" where if ticked, would only set that volume at startup only.
I'll probably do that the coming weekend if I make the time.

Can you share a screenshot of your preferences like my screenshot above?
And just to rule off a mis-match in the way I've handled the plugin database on this update:
Can you go to ...\appData\mb_volumeLock\... and delete the files in there, then restart MusicBee.
