100 % = -4.38 dB
I'll double-check this. I presume it will be a bug in PulseAudio, but I have no proof of that yet. It's a gnome-media bug. Upstream bug is at: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=575093 Fixed in gnome-media 2.25.92-4: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1238143 Is it correct that 100% equals 0.00db and 50% equals -30.00db? Maybe I'm totally misreading this but it makes no sense to me... (I just tested with the latest gnome-media from koji) That's the way that dB information is used for soundcards. |
Created attachment 334498 [details] 100 % = -0.6 dB Description of problem: The same 100 % of output on the new applet sometimes means different value in dB. See the two attached images. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-media-2.25.92-2.fc11.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Have < 100 % 2. Do some up'n'down with the pop up slider and/or change the volume with mouse's second button (wheel) Actual results: dB differs: -0.6 dB v. -4.38 dB Expected results: dB are always the same on each percentage level
