Master Sound Level Windows Vista/7

[Airforcex6]

Hi!

I have a simple problem which I couldn't solve. It is about changing master sound level in Windows Vista / Windows 7 using the application compiled with Visual Studio 2010. There is the code given below which I have used in order to adjust master volume level, but nothing have happened. Can anyone point out to me the mistake inside the source code?

Thank you in advance!

CODE

#include <mmdeviceapi.h>

#include <endpointvolume.h>

#include <windows.h>

#include <tchar.h>

#pragma comment(lib, "winmm.lib");

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])

{

double nVolume = 0.1; // Mute is 0 and full blast is 1.0

bool ChangeVolume((double) nVolume);

}

bool ChangeVolume(double nVolume,bool bScalar)

{

bScalar = true;

HRESULT hr=NULL;

bool decibels = false;

bool scalar = false;

double newVolume=nVolume;

CoInitialize(NULL);

IMMDeviceEnumerator *deviceEnumerator = NULL;

hr = CoCreateInstance(__uuidof(MMDeviceEnumerator), NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,

__uuidof(IMMDeviceEnumerator), (LPVOID *)&deviceEnumerator);

IMMDevice *defaultDevice = NULL;

hr = deviceEnumerator->GetDefaultAudioEndpoint(eRender, eConsole, &defaultDevice);

deviceEnumerator->Release();

deviceEnumerator = NULL;

IAudioEndpointVolume *endpointVolume = NULL;

hr = defaultDevice->Activate(__uuidof(IAudioEndpointVolume),

CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, NULL, (LPVOID *)&endpointVolume);

defaultDevice->Release();

defaultDevice = NULL;

// -------------------------

float currentVolume = 0;

endpointVolume->GetMasterVolumeLevel(&currentVolume);

//printf("Current volume in dB is: %f\n", currentVolume);

hr = endpointVolume->GetMasterVolumeLevelScalar(&currentVolume);

//CString strCur=L"";

//strCur.Format(L"%f",currentVolume);

//AfxMessageBox(strCur);

// printf("Current volume as a scalar is: %f\n", currentVolume);

if (bScalar==false)

{

hr = endpointVolume->SetMasterVolumeLevel((float)newVolume, NULL);

}

else if (bScalar==true)

{

hr = endpointVolume->SetMasterVolumeLevelScalar((float)newVolume, NULL);

}

endpointVolume->Release();

CoUninitialize();

return FALSE;

}

Thank you anyway, I have found the code that works well!

Here it is:

CODE

#include <WinSDKVer.h>

#define _WIN32_WINNT _WIN32_WINNT_VISTA

#include <SDKDDKVer.h>

#define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN

// Windows Header Files:

#include <windows.h>

#include <tchar.h>

#include <mmdeviceapi.h>

#include <endpointvolume.h>

int APIENTRY _tWinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance,

HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,

LPTSTR lpCmdLine,

int nCmdShow)

{

//double newVolume = _ttof(lpCmdLine);

double newVolume = 0.1; // Put the value between 0.0 and 1.0

CoInitialize(NULL);

IMMDeviceEnumerator* deviceEnumerator = NULL;

if(CoCreateInstance(__uuidof(MMDeviceEnumerator), NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, __uuidof(IMMDeviceEnumerator), (LPVOID *)&deviceEnumerator) == S_OK) {

IMMDevice* defaultDevice = NULL;

if(deviceEnumerator->GetDefaultAudioEndpoint(eRender, eConsole, &defaultDevice) == S_OK) {

IAudioEndpointVolume* endpointVolume = NULL;

if(defaultDevice->Activate(__uuidof(IAudioEndpointVolume), CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, NULL, (LPVOID *)&endpointVolume) == S_OK) {

endpointVolume->SetMasterVolumeLevelScalar((float)newVolume, NULL);

endpointVolume->Release();

}

defaultDevice->Release();

}

deviceEnumerator->Release();

}

CoUninitialize();

return 0;
