volume control

[masuk]

hi

i want to display windows volume control wizard with a button click. i also want to control volume (microphone and speaker) using slider.how to do these??

advance thanx

[squidge]

You could implement the IAudioVolumeLevel interface?

how to implement??
give some link or reference.

thanks

[squidge]

I included a link/reference in my post. Perhaps you missed it?

[masuk]

how to implement in qt??

[BalaQT]

hi masuk,

In windows XP u can use windows.h (api)

hope it helps
Bala

[masuk]

hi bala
can you give sample source code??

[squidge]

You implement as per any other COM object, using REFIID IID_IAudioVolumeLevel.

If you don't want the complexity of COM objects, then the best thing to do is just alter your own volume output only, rather than trying to adjust the system volume.

hi all,

i need Qt documentation/samples to solve.

thanks

i need Qt documentation/samples to solve.
You mean you want working code ?

[masuk]

I need Qt documentation. how can i add windows api,how to adjust with slider.

thanks

[squidge]

You can use windows API calls in the same way regardless of whether you use Qt or not, as Qt is just another library that you use, like Win API.

Qt itself does not support altering the system volume control.

i tried this


#include "form1.h"
#include "ui_form1.h"

#include <phonon/AudioOutput>
#include <phonon/MediaObject>
#include <phonon/VolumeSlider>

Form1::Form1(QWidget *parent) :
QWidget(parent),
ui(new Ui::Form1)
{
ui->setupUi(this);

connect(ui->horizontalSlider,SIGNAL(sliderMoved(int)),this,SLO T(setAudioOutput()));

Phonon::MediaObject *mediaObject = new Phonon::MediaObject(this);
Phonon::AudioOutput *audioOutput = new Phonon::AudioOutput(Phonon::MusicCategory);
Phonon::createPath(mediaObject, audioOutput);

Phonon::VolumeSlider *volumeSlider = new Phonon::VolumeSlider;
volumeSlider->setAudioOutput(audioOutput);
}


but showing these errors:

Is possible to solve in this way?

thanks

[nish]

did you made changes to your .pro file to link to phonon?

[masuk]

hi
thanks nish.
after link to phonon there is no error. but i can not solve my problem means when i moved slider(horizontal slider) it does not change the volume level of "windows volume control"

thanks

[squidge]

That is correct, phonon only changes the volume control of application. To change the system volume control, it is more difficult and requires WinAPI.

[masuk]

i tried this


#include "form1.h"
#include "ui_form1.h"

#include <phonon/AudioOutput>
#include <phonon/MediaObject>
#include <phonon/VolumeSlider>
#include <QLibrary>
#include <windows.h>

Form1::Form1(QWidget *parent) :
QWidget(parent),
ui(new Ui::Form1)
{
ui->setupUi(this);
QLibrary myLib("C:/Windows/System32/MMSYSTEM.DLL");

myLib.load();

if (myLib.isLoaded())
{
connect(ui->horizontalSlider,SIGNAL(sliderMoved(int)),this,SLO T(setAudioOutput()));
}

//Phonon::MediaObject *mediaObject = new Phonon::MediaObject(this);
//Phonon::AudioOutput *audioOutput = new Phonon::AudioOutput(Phonon::MusicCategory);
//Phonon::createPath(mediaObject, audioOutput);
//mediaObject->setCurrentSource(Phonon::MediaSource("C:/Windows/Suiystem32/MMSYSTEM.DLL"));
//Phonon::VolumeSlider *volumeSlider = new Phonon::VolumeSlider;
//volumeSlider->setAudioOutput(audioOutput);
}

void Form1::showForm2() //<----error show here
{
Form2 *frm2 = new Form2; //<----error show here
frm2->show(); //<----error show here
}



As phonon only changes the volume control of application so i comments those lines.

But when use #include<windows.h> these errors shown:


form1.cpp: In member function 'void Form1::showForm2()':

form1.cpp:182: error: expected unqualified-id before numeric constant

form1.cpp:182: error: expected initializer before numeric constant

form1.cpp:183: error: base operand of '->' is not a pointer


this is .pro file


QT += core gui
QT += phonon

LIBS += -luser32 -lshell32 -lgdi32

TARGET = untitled2
TEMPLATE = app


SOURCES += main.cpp\
mainwindow.cpp \
form1.cpp

HEADERS += mainwindow.h \
form1.h

FORMS += mainwindow.ui \
form1.ui


my problem is not solved."is the signal and slot is right that i used for horizontal slider" and "is the selected .dll is right to solve my problem"?

thanks

[squidge]

Where is Form2 defined?

[masuk]

Hi squidge

actually in my program i defined #include "form2.h" but in post that missed.


#include "form1.h"
#include "ui_form1.h"
#include "form2.h"
#include <phonon/AudioOutput>
#include <phonon/MediaObject>
#include <phonon/VolumeSlider>
#include <QLibrary>
#include <windows.h>

Form1::Form1(QWidget *parent) :
QWidget(parent),
ui(new Ui::Form1)
{
ui->setupUi(this);
QLibrary myLib("C:/Windows/System32/MMSYSTEM.DLL");

myLib.load();

if (myLib.isLoaded())
{
connect(ui->horizontalSlider,SIGNAL(sliderMoved(int)),this,SLO T(setAudioOutput()));
}

//Phonon::MediaObject *mediaObject = new Phonon::MediaObject(this);
//Phonon::AudioOutput *audioOutput = new Phonon::AudioOutput(Phonon::MusicCategory);
//Phonon::createPath(mediaObject, audioOutput);
//mediaObject->setCurrentSource(Phonon::MediaSource("C:/Windows/Suiystem32/MMSYSTEM.DLL"));
//Phonon::VolumeSlider *volumeSlider = new Phonon::VolumeSlider;
//volumeSlider->setAudioOutput(audioOutput);
}

void Form1::showForm2() //<----error show here
{
Form2 *frm2 = new Form2; //<----error show here
frm2->show(); //<----error show here
}


but my problem is not solved.....:(

thanks

[squidge]

Ok, I'm confused. The error is on line 182, but there are only 36 lines in your post.

Secondly, what is content of Form2.h ?

[masuk]

hi
i only posted the reqired code. this is my full code:

i have another form named form2.this is not matter. i need to access the windows volume control with sliders(horizontal slider)

[squidge]

I don't see any code for accessing windows volume control, and I don't see any definitions for Form2, which is probably why the compiler is complaining.

[masuk]

i can't get any solution for control system volume level. as phonon use only for control application volume.i need source code how to control system(xp,vista,linux) volume using slider(horizontal slider).

thanks
