Idle Volume Adjuster

[newer]

Thanks, it uses Windows Vista Audio Library that was introduced with Vista, so no. It can be converted to work with SoundGet and SoundSet (which is a lot slower), but not on my todo list as I won't ever touch XP again.

Hallo and gratulation to this top ap.

is there now a chance to work your programm with XP....??

You got it!

Ok, so this is as far as I got. I created a file called "3rdPartyToolPaths.ini" and put it in the ...\HyperLaunch\Lib folder. There I put my WinIPac and IdleVolumeAdjuster path, along with what I want it to do and a list of the systems. Give three options for IdleVol, No, Yes & Kill.

The script will do nothing if set to no. Yes will make it pause and resume. Kill will (eventually) kill the program and restart it when done.

There is still much to do in it, but am I on the right path?

3rdPartyToolsPaths.ini:

[WinIPAC]
# WinIPACPath = Path and exe for your WinIPAC program
# WinIPACProfileDir = The directory that has your default and system and/or game based IPac profiles
WinIPACPath = H:\WinIPAC\WinIPAC.exe
WinIPACProfileDir = H:\HyperLaunch\IPacProfiles

[idleVolAdjust]
# IdleVolPath = Path and exe for IdleVolumeAdjuster.exe
# IdleVolUse = No, Yes or Kill
# IdleVolSystems = List of systems to use this script on.  Please use the full name of the system seperated by commas
IdleVolPath = H:\HyperLaunch\IdleVolumeAdjuster.exe
IdleVolUse = Kill
IdleVolSystems = PopCap,ScummVM,WoW Action Max

Your thoughts? And, how do I detect and attempt to close the program?

I tried:

IfWinExist, Idle Volume Adjuster v1.4 (by djvj)
               {
Log("IdleVolAdjust - Attempting to close Idle Volume Adjuster", 5)
                   WinClose, Idle Volume Adjuster v1.4 (by djvj)
               }

But that didn't work.

I edited this post with a working script. The Volume Idle Adjuster part of the script works great! The WinIPac part is still a WIP. It works, but does no proper error detection. And it's on another thread.

Thanks,

Ron

You got it!

Djvj,

How can I, in ahk, detect and close Idle Volume Adjuster? I almost have the above script done, but cannot detect and kill the process.

Thanks,

Ron

EDIT:

Got it! Used

Process, Exist, IdleVolumeAdjuster.exe

Got the ErrorLevel as a PID and then:

Process, Close, PID

Sweet! Now to post the completed script when I finish all the logging and error checks.

[rfancella]

Ok, for those out there interested. The script in post #52 works fine now. There is lots of error checking, probably too much...

Thanks,

Ron

[ninja2bceen]

great job, works perfect! whats a winipac program?

The goal for me is to have the volume editor do its thing EXCEPT for when I'm watching a movie via xbmc. I added the system name like you told us and its great

note that the user function ahk has the code copied twice. It wouldn't run any game for me until I deleted the other half. I think it restarted on line 126. I kept getting a pop up stating that it was a duplicate. Since the edit, this is pretty much amazing and worked out of the box err a download

Thank you. Yes, there was a duplicate section in there. I edited the post and fixed it. I plan on making one additional change. I detect if the program is running only in one section. I am going to move it up, so if the program is not running, it will do nothing.

WinIPac is the program to program your IPac. It's a keyboard encoder made by Ultimarc: http://www.ultimarc.com/ipac1.html

Look for the last change next week.

Thanks,

Ron

What changes need to be made here?

[Turranius]

This app doesn't work for me when using a mouse. The voulume goes down even when playing. So this workaround would be great for me.

Same here. Mouse movement still kicks in the idle and does not resume the volume afterwards. Standard USB mouse really.

This is an autoit script, correct? I created a "disable screensaver" script a while back that checks the mouse cursor position. If it does not move for 9 minutes, move it 1 pixel up and down again, to prevent screensaver to kick in. Perhaps it could be useful for you? Or perhaps you just need the idea =)

Check cursor position as curpos.

Sleep the desired amount of time.

Check cursor position. Match it with curpos.

If its the same, you're idle.

If not the same position, save location as curpos

repeat

Edit: Ah. AHK. Should be the same procedure though I guess.

I didn't understand much of that, put I could try your script out and see if it fixes my poblem.

[Turranius]

That was ment for djvj, but I guess, since I just saw who created this, the point is moot since djvj knows what hes doing =)

[Turranius]

Dime333:

I made two test scripts in autoit you may test for me. Currently they only mute and unmute (no fading, I can add that later with config etc if it works for you).

ftp://misc:[email protected]/Hyperspin/Testing/

The traydebug version should mute after 30 seconds and show in the traybar what its doing all the time.

The other one should mute after 60 seconds. No texts or otherwise.

Let me know if this works better and worth working on.

Rough source

#include <Timers.au3>

Global $iLimit = 60 ; idle limit in seconds
Global $Mute = "OFF"

;HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_Quit")

; Make sure mute is off
send("{VOLUME_DOWN}")
send("{VOLUME_UP}")

While 1
   Sleep(1000)
If $Mute = "OFF" Then
 	  _CheckIdleTimeMute()
   Else   
  _CheckIdleTimeUnMute()
EndIf
WEnd

Func _CheckIdleTimeMute()
   ;TrayTip("MuteFunction (Mute at: " & $iLimit * 1000 & " ms)", "Current idle time: " & _Timer_GetIdleTime() & " ms", 1)	
   If _Timer_GetIdleTime() > $iLimit * 1000 Then 
  send("{VOLUME_MUTE}")
  $Mute = "ON"

   EndIf
EndFunc   ;==>_CheckIdleTime

Func _CheckIdleTimeUnMute()
;TrayTip("MuteFunction", "Unmute on action. Current idle time: " & _Timer_GetIdleTime() & " ms", 1)
   If _Timer_GetIdleTime() < 1000 Then 
  send("{VOLUME_DOWN}")
  send("{VOLUME_UP}")
  $Mute = "OFF"
   EndIf
EndFunc   ;==>_CheckIdleTime

Func _Quit()
   Exit
EndFunc   ;==>_Quit

I tested both scripts and they are working great. If you could make it possible to set the time for it be activated, set the volume that it goes down to and add fade, I'd defenately want to add it to my setup.

The initial volume and reduced volume as well as rate, i believe are all adjustamle in the program and not the script. My script is just to either pause the exe or kill it and restart it mased on the system launched. That way you can disable the limiter for mouse systems only.

Sounds like what you want can be accomplished within the exe. Or maybe I dont understand?

Thanks,

Ron

[Dime333]

Sorry, Ron. My comment was for Turranius. Post #62.

[Turranius]

We should make our own thread, but I'll write one last thing here =)

I have a problem. There is no way to detect the current volume so lowering the volume to, say, 25%, is very hard when I have no idea what it is set for to begin with.

We have three options. Volume goes from 0 (silent) to 100 (highest) in Windows.

Option1: At start, set the volume to maximum by sending "Volume UP" 100 times. If you then say that you want it at 25% during idle, I just lower the volume 75 times.

Option2: In the config, you decide what you want the start volume to be (0-100). I then lower it 100 times to make sure its 0, then up it until it reaches the value you defined.

Option3: We dont touch current volume. Then, you can not specify 25% as idle volume, but set "how many points to lower it during idle" instead. If your volume at start is 60% in windows and you've defined that you want it lowered 30 points during idle, it will go to 30. If the volume at startup is 100 in Windows, it will go to 70.

Not sure which is best... Perhaps all of them, optional.

In any case, I'll do my best in the next two days to bring something together and start my own thread instead of hijacking this one =)

Your thoughts? And, how do I detect and attempt to close the program?

I tried:

IfWinExist, Idle Volume Adjuster v1.4 (by djvj)                {Log("IdleVolAdjust - Attempting to close Idle Volume Adjuster", 5)                    WinClose, Idle Volume Adjuster v1.4 (by djvj)                }

But that didn't work.

I edited this post with a working script. The Volume Idle Adjuster part of the script works great! The WinIPac part is still a WIP. It works, but does no proper error detection. And it's on another thread.

Thanks,

Ron

Hi Ron,

Currently pulling my hair out because MESS isn't playing nicely with my ipac (just player two right direction). I was hoping to use your script for switch ipac profiles for Mess\colecovision. Can you please give me a few more pointers? I'm not sure where the User Functions.ahk: file needs to go in rocketlauncher?

Also I have two ipac profiles

1) default.ipc (for most of my systems)

2) colecovision.ipc (for coleco).

Where do I go from here?

Thank you

George

/scrap that. I seemed to have figured it out. Thanks again Ron it's a wonderful script that's saved me plenty of headache!!

Hey George,

Sorry for the late reply.  I have been so far behind here.  But this was on my last page of unread posts. 

Did you get it sorted?

 

Thanks,

Ron

Hey Ron!

Yes all sorted. I've used your script as a last resort for a couple systems that I can't remap with rlaunchers inbuilt mapping feature. It's saved my sanity!

Thanks again and cheers for bundling with the idle volume adjuster
