Tidal App Volume Control: adjust softvol instead of master volume
kls0e opened this issue · comments
tidal-connect-docker in combo with an RPI3B+ and a Hifiberry AMP+ on HifiberryOS works fine!
I am looking to control softvol rather than master volume using the tidal android app volume slider. Is the essence of issue #6 that this is not possible with the Tidal binaries? Or is there a way?
I did edit /data/tidal-connect-docker/Docker/entrypoint.sh and changed to --playback-device "softvol" \ as mentioned here but tidal android app volume control still changes alsamixer master volume.
You're correct, that would be the correct implementation, but Tidal will remain unsupportive of an implementation with non-approved (by the MQA consortium) hardware. And that means their source code is closed until someone manages to reverse-engineer it. Which leaves us where we are, with a functioning "hack" that's sub-optimal for some users.
thanks for clarifying.
