I'm making a general plugin and I need a function to increase the volume x%. The only way I found to do this is loop WINAMP_VOLUMEUP (increases volume by 1%) x number of times in a for loop.

Well... when I loop and SendMessage/PostMessage (I tried both) 25 times, my volume % in winamp goes up to 39%. When I try to send the message 50 times, winamp volume goes up to around 95%. What gives!?

Thanks,
Tristan

my code:
for(int i = 0; i < 25; i++)
{
::SendMessage(hwndParent, WM_COMMAND, WINAMP_VOLUMEUP, NULL);
}

...
I set the volume control to 0%.
SendMessing() x 25 times, volume ends up at 39%.
SendMessage() x 50 times, volume ends up at 74%.

I did the math, and by golly the two are erratic jumps are related. It seems a single WINAMP_VOLUMEUP increases the volume silder by aprox. 1.5%. ....?

Any comments/ideas/thoughts on this?

Thanks,
