--volume (CLI argument) has no effect

I want to reopen this bug:
https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/3913
but the last guy who tried to reopen it got a warning.
The --volume option does not work for me.
This should start VLC with the volume almost all the way down:
Code: Select all
vlc.exe --volume=1 <some video filename>Please test on your system.
I'm on Windows 7 x64.

There is no volume option in VLC 2.1 anymore. Use directx-volume or whatever is appropriate for your system.

THANK YOU!!!
Thank you so much.
I searched, but couldn't find documentation, so in case anyone is looking:
Start VLC at 21% volume (on Windows):
Code: Select all
vlc.exe --directx-volume=0.21 <file name>
At 200%:
Code: Select all
vlc.exe --directx-volume=2 <file name>
Have a great day.

Is there any way to set the volume on an individual file basis?
e.g. vlc.exe <filename1> :directx-volume=0.9 <filename2> :directx-volume=0.5
The above command doesn't work, only when directx-volume is used as a global setting (--directx-volume).
I've tried using the gain setting (e.g. :gain 1.2) as well and that doesn't work either.

No. The audio output is not per input.
