|
|
I'm probably the only one with this problem but...
I use kalarm to wake me up. Have done that for years and years.
The handbook says:
Quote: | If the Phonon audio backend currently in use supports it, you can fade the volume |
And that was the case until recently. Phonon supported fade, and there was UI in Kalarm to set up fade. Which I did, and woke up every day with ny music playing softly, and gradually becoming louder and louder.
After the update to phonon-4.12.0-r3, this is apparently no longer the case. The fade UI is gone, and I wake up to speakers blasting at 100% volume, which makes me nervous and those around me angry.
This is no good. How do I get my fade back? |

Developers apparently know, I found this in the source code of phonon-backend-vlc:
Code: | #warning VFE crashes and has volume bugs ... deactivated |
(VFE is VolumeFadeEffect)
VLC is the only backend available now, as gstreamer has been deprecated. There is a third party backend called phonon-mpv but it doesn't seem to support any effects. |
