| 13 | .SH "DESCRIPTION" |
---|
| 14 | This tool controlls the RoarAudio's sound server. |
---|
| 15 | This is done by sending commands to the server. See \fBCOMMANDS\fR for a list. |

[166] | 34 | Brings the server into standby mode or back into achtive (operating mode). |
---|
[165] | 35 | |
---|
| 36 | .TP |
---|
| 37 | \fBstandbymode\fR |

[166] | 45 | \fBvolume STREAMID CHANNELS VOL0 VOL1 VOL2...\fR |
---|
| 46 | Sets the mixing level for a stream with id \fISTREAMID\fR. |
---|
| 47 | |
---|
| 48 | \fICHANNELS\fR is the nummber of channels to set volume. |
---|
| 49 | This should be the number of channels of the stream or a symbolic name. |
---|
| 50 | Currently the symbolic names \fBmono\fR and \fBstereo\fR are allowed. |
---|
| 51 | If you use \fBmono\fR all channels will get the level you give as |
---|
| 52 | \fIVOL0\fR. If you use \fBstereo\fR it will try to set the mixing levels |
---|
| 53 | as you are used from stereo setups even if the setup is not in stereo. |
---|
| 54 | |
---|
| 55 | The parameters \fIVOL0\fR ... \fIVOLn\fR and the number of them depends |
---|
| 56 | on what you gave as \fICHANNELS\fR. You have to give exactly \fICHANNELS\fR |
---|
| 57 | parameters. |
---|
| 58 | |
---|
| 59 | If you give a numerical (not symbolic) value for \fICHANNELS\fR and |
---|
| 60 | the stream does have a diffrent number of channels the behavor is undefined. |
---|
| 61 | In the current implementation only the first \fICHANNELS\fR channels will be updated. |
---|
| 62 | This behavor may change in the future. |
