Hi there, I have a problem of using libvlcAudioSetVolume and libvlcAudioToggleMute functions, namely libvlcAudioToggleMute doesn't work correctly in cases when mute state was changed via libvlcAudioSetVolume. It seems like it uses the previous mute state when toggling. Should I report the bug or is there some solution for that?

Are you using libVLC directly?

i dynamically load functions from libvlc.dll and call them

You cannot set the "mute" state via libvlc_audio_set_volume() in the first place.

Of course, it you set volume to zero and mute (or vice versa), and then unmute, the volume will be zero. That is intended behaviour.

ok, but why then libvlc_audio_get_mute returns muted state if i set volume to zero?

That's a bug. It will be fixed in the next release.

With VLC 1.1.10, I can't unmute. After I use libvlc_Audio_ToggleMute to unmute, libvlc_audio_get_volume returns zero, libvlc_audio_get_mute returns false.
I haven't this problem with VLC 1.1.7 (not tested with 1.1.8 and 1.1.9).
I can store the volume in my application before to mute and restore it after to unmute, but I think it' s a bug ...

I meant VLC 1.2.

My english is very bad, so i summarize in a tabular form.


Can you confirm ?
