So, we need two fixes: - rename "Mux Capture Volume" to more intuitive one, such as "Capture Boost" or something like that. - limit the max level of this volume to 2. The latter is a bit hard to fix. Let's see whether I can do some hack... thanks, Takashi _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
