Nothing is "wrong" in doing it in mpc, but you have to remember that mpc is just one of many clients. I'd think a lot of clients would implement/want relative volume changing functionality (mine sure does), so I'm not sure how worthwhile it is forcing all of them to implement it themselves. Of course, it's pretty simple to do. -- Andrei Thorp, Developer: Xandros Corp. (http://www.xandros.com)
