Setting a command line for daphne for volume setting


cnells2000

Recommended Posts

Right now, my command line is set to vldp -fullscreen -x 640 -y 480 -nohwaccel to start daphne. is there a way i can add a volume level to set it at because everytime i press the volume increase button on my keyboard it escapes out of the emulator. no other emulator i have does this. i saw something on a daphne wiki site: http://www.daphne-emu.com/mediawiki/index.php/CmdLine

It says -volume_vldp <volume> Sets the volume of the laserdisc audio when using VLDP (max value is 64, 0 means muted). VLDP only. is there a way to set this in the gameex command line along with the other configuration i have above? plz help

Well if that's the case then for those games you can add that command to the "Options" field under your Daphne games that support that command.

Yes or add it to the main Daphne Options command like so:

vldp -fullscreen -x 640 -y 480 -nohwaccel -volume_vldp 64 (or whichever number is reasonable on your machine)

But that would set it across all your games though so per-game would probably be preferable.

The real issue here though is why it is exiting on the volume up keypress? Which key is it and have you altered it from default? It sounds as though it is set the same as, or at least conflicting with GX's process close. A log.ini after you have pressed your volume up while in Daphne might be helpful here ;)
