Winamp2 "Get Volume" Via SendMessage

fuh · 5th June 2003, 13:08

I'll make this brief.

I can set winamp volume with

#define IPC_SETVOLUME 122
SendMessage(mp3_hwnd, WM_WA_IPC, vol, IPC_SETVOLUME);

How on earth do I query what the current volume is?

Thanks.

hmm just read you can pass -666 as the volume to get the current volume. wish this was documented!

errr yeah thanks for the docs on that nullsoft

iv only spent the last two years looking for the answer to that

Yeah hell! I have already given up searching for that function. Thanks a lot for that!!

I whish the Nullsoft guys would rather work on better API docs than on video support...

It really worked. You're all right about the documentation of this thing. I have tried with brute force all the codes, but only POSITIVE numbers. Who would have thought about NEGATIVES ???

Wow, that's cool. I've been doing workaround for this for years now!
