nobody knows? where's the 100%-setting???

[The DJ]

100% should be
1: 500 in the preferences
2: right side of the windows slider
3: 50% of the volume OSD

Man it's a mess isn't it?

[Dandruff]

yes - it's really a mess. 500 is wrong!!! too loud. i'm at 242 now. who knows that exactly???

[Dandruff]

nobody knows???

[Dandruff]

ok. seems it is 256, because it's the default-setting. is that right (0db / 100%) ???
