I'm not asking "how to mute sth" - I'm asking: "what is the meaning of the `mute' variable/control" - just look at an example: numid=36,iface=MIXER,name='PC Speaker Playback Volume' ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=1,min=0,max=15,step=0 : values=0 | dBscale-min=-45.00dB,step=3.00dB,mute=0 numid=20,iface=MIXER,name='Aux2 Capture Volume' ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=2,min=0,max=100,step=0 : values=100,100 | dBscale-min=-40.00dB,step=0.40dB,mute=1 The sound card of yours didn't have any "mutes". -- pozdrawiam / regards Zbigniew Baniewski ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
