MinVolume not 0%

Add: Tweaks: MinVolume in case you can hear something even if muted, lower this value.

From DVBViewer 4.1 changelist.

I would like to remind the developers of this software that there are still some sound coming through when putting volume at 0% and muted as well. When DVBViewer is at 0% volume it is like if it would be on 4%. All other applications i have tested do not show this (MPCHC, SageTV, Windows Media Player) not even your own TSPlayer. They are completly silent at 0%. But when increasing these applications volume to 4%, they sound exactly like DVBViewer at 0%.

 

When dealing with sound from a HTPC connected to a TV-set, there is a problem not getting high enough sound to TV speakers. Windows dont act as an amplifier that well and not the TV-set either. This forces me to increase the volume to 100% on the TV-speakers. The sound coming from DVBViewer when 0% volumed is hearable from volume 70% up to 100% on the TV-set. If i decrease the TV-speaker volume to under 70% i gets really low volume at 100% on DVBViewer and 100% from Windows.

This is getting REEEEEALLY annoying.

Are there any chances this could be reviewed during next beta-testing? I would LOVE to have it fixed...

SORTED! SOO NICE getting rid of that annoying sound! Works a lot next to this TV-set. My suggestion to you guys is to make -10 000 as a new MinVolume default value. -9000 works fairly well also, but there are hintable noise coming through. -8000 is far too high however. Maybe a change of this value doesnt effect anything else?

It was a smooth solution for a really annoying problem. Thanks a million, Tjod and the DVBViewer guys! You rock!
