I have a fresh install of Windows 8 with a fresh install of 2.1.0. The --volume command line switch doesn't seem to work. For example, the following command will launch vlc with 100% volume:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" --volume 0 -vvv "http://path.to/stream.pls"
No matter what value I enter for the volume, vlc launches with my volume setting from the last time I ran it. I also tried the latest 2.1.1 nightly with the same results.
--volume not working

Re: --volume not working
I'm guessing this is a bug... Should I report it? Still not working as of latest nightly.
Re: --volume not working
Unfortunately, --volume was removed in VLC 2.1.0...

Re: --volume not working
Instead, try either
--waveout-volume=x.xxxx
or
--directx-volume=x.xxxx
At least the above work for me.
--waveout-volume=x.xxxx
or
--directx-volume=x.xxxx

Re: --volume not working
This will not work for all audio outputs.
Furthermore, this is not portable either...

Re: --volume not working
Perhaps it won't work for http, but it suffices my needs on local multi-user Win7.
What Arrow1 could do though is to browse the "vlcrc" file (without an extension) for further clues.
