# volume
|
|
|
|
Shows the current system volume. The first parameter sets the step (and units
|
|
to display). The second parameter overrides the mixer selection.
|
|
See the script for details.
|
|
|
|
Scrolling on the block changes the volume. Right clicking toggles mute.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Usage
|
|
|
|
This block can be run on an interval or by signal. To run the block using a
|
|
signal, it is recommended to add the following to your i3 config.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# change volume or toggle mute
|
|
bindsym XF86AudioRaiseVolume exec amixer -q -D pulse sset Master 5%+ && pkill -RTMIN+10 i3blocks
|
|
bindsym XF86AudioLowerVolume exec amixer -q -D pulse sset Master 5%- && pkill -RTMIN+10 i3blocks
|
|
bindsym XF86AudioMute exec amixer -q -D pulse sset Master toggle && pkill -RTMIN+10 i3blocks
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
where the number `10` in `-RTMIN+10` can be replaced to another signal number,
|
|
as long as it agrees what you put for `signal=` in your i3blocks config.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Config
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[volume]
|
|
command=$SCRIPT_DIR/volume
|
|
#LABEL=♪
|
|
LABEL=VOL
|
|
interval=once
|
|
signal=10
|
|
#STEP=5%
|
|
#MIXER=[determined automatically]
|
|
#SCONTROL=[determined automatically]
|
|
#NATURAL_MAPPING=0
|
|
```
|
|
For PulseAudio users, MIXER is usually "pulse" or "default".
|
|
For Jack/Jack2 users, MIXER is usually "jackplug".
|
|
For ALSA users, use "default" for your primary card, or "hw:#"
|
|
where # is the number of the card desired.
|
|
|
|
For a list of available SCONTROL options, use `amixer -D $MIXER scontrols`.
|
|
|
|
If `NATURAL_MAPPING` is set to a non-zero value, the `-M` flag is used for `amixer`, enabling
|
|
a volume mapping more natural for the human ear, as used in alsamixer.
