Volume jumps to 100% when starting any media player - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

Hi,
is it just my machine that does this ? As soon as I start Pocket Player or GSPlayer to listen to some music the volume jumps to 100%. Very annoying ...
Cheers,
Oliver

Answering myself ;-) There is a setting in pocket player under playback "use and set device system volume" which needs to be turned OFF. I also installed the latest version 1.91a for gsplayer and this seems to work correctly.

Windows Media Player problem plz read

my Windows Media Player in my Magician does not save the last audio volume it always remains at 70 if i close it and re-open it whatever volume i set it to e.g. 100%.
the other thing is that when i decrease the volume to 0% i can still hear the song playing albeit in a more quiet volume.
anybody faced this problem before? please help
many thanks in advance
once upon a tima i had the same problem.
it has to do with the system volume (tap the speaker in your task bar to adjust). if you set up this volume to 70% your media player will take the same value. just change your system volume and the wmp will change, too
i have the same problem... the system volume is set to 100% but player still comes up as 70% everytime. any reg hack?
Same here...
Although I wanted to turn the volume down really low so I could listen to music at work and still hear whats going on around me. Which you can't do. Even if you set it to 0% (with the system volume at one notch off mute).
Have had to buy a set of headphones with an inline volume control...ho hum..
My player volume stays at what I set it to though.

Here's the fix for your problem

Volume (default) fix on Windows Media Player.

I was having problems adjusting the volume on Windows Media Player and getting it to stay at the same level next time I open it.
(The reason being I wanted to reduce the volume to 0% as I have the Motorola HT820 bluetooth headphones, and I don't want to tick automute cos the phone doesn't ring and I can't use Voice Command, and I don't want music blaring out of the internal speaker when I am listening on the headphones.) Every time I closed Windows Media Player using Pocket Plus, it would reset the volume again.
This is a fix/workaround. Open Windows Media Player, start playing a song, adjust the volume to desired level, then pause the song. Next, go to Start, Settings, Memory, Running Programs, and close Windows Media from there. Next time you open, hey presto, the volume level has been saved.
I have spent hours searching for a registry fix etc.....and didn't realise the problem was as a result of closing Windows Media with Pocket Plus's Close utility.
Hope this helps people out there.

Windows Media Player - No Turn Off while phone phone turned off

Hello
i need to know if there is any possibility to continue the playing of the windows media player when i turn off my mobile phone (so that the touchscreen can not be used, but phone still on)
the problem is that im going to work every morning and plugin my earphones to turn on the music for the way. i leave the phone in my jacket and because it is not turned off so you can use the touchscreen it happens very often that the touchscreen is touched and that the song turns louder, the next song comes, aso..... i do not like this, this is why i ask for a configuration that i save the screen so it cant be touched and i can hear music at the same time.
is there anything out?
You can set a key to disable the screen by using the "Menu" "Options..." "Keys" menu.
The last item (not sure, I'm using a french WM) is about Activating/Deactivating the screen.
Hope this will help you.
Another option is to use a bluetooth headset, which will keep the music playing even when you hit the power button. Another thing to consider would be a program such as Slide 2 Unlock, which can turn off the lcd according to a preset delay, but I'm not sure if media player would keep playing or not. Good luck!
I just use the audioprogram from htc with batterystatus, when I turn my phone off. the music keeps playing and my screen is off and keys locked
yea, the new HTC audio manager plugin (touchflo cab) allows you to turn off the screen while still playing the music. its a plus as a really nice audio player also.
Just assign a button in WMP to "Toggle Screen" this will do what youre looking for. No need for an entirely new media player.

Sorry to Bump this up but can someone tell me how to listen to music in audio manager while screen is off please, i searched and searched and the only answers i see are use another player (which I dont wantm I orefer audio manager) and "mine works when my screen is off" (thanks for the help???) Did anyone have the same problem as me and fix it? Thanks in advance
Play Media Player while phone is (otherwise) off.
I had a ROM loaded on my phone that allowed MS Mediaplayer to stay active while my Tilt was 'off'. In fact, it was listed as a feature of that ROM. So I know that it's possible. Someone knows how to do it.​

Niki Strange behaviour -> PocketMusic and any other music player

I am not sure if I am the only one who has noticed this strange behaviour of the niki device.anyway what I have noticed is that if I start pocketmusic turn the volume to 100% then I open the integrated player or pocket player the volume is much higher than normal (and this is good). On the other hand if I close pocketmusic the volume decreases...
in someway I guess that PocketMusic boosts the volume of the device..but I do not know how...
anyone else has noticed it?
PocketMusik doesnt Boost. It use a other internel Channel on the Soundcard. Its simulare like Windows XP etc ... this is why PocketMusik can use 100% Volume.

Try turn on 5.1 option when watching a movie, maybe it's only for this? Anyway I'm using it only with videos and didn't try with music.
I can turn it on while watching a video but cant do the same in music player.
Mines has worked from day 1 with the music player. I never touched anything, just when I put my music on and pressed 5.1 it worked.
You have to have both effects turned off, equaliser, and the other one, to get it to work.
Works fine here.
From day #1 I don't have problems with 5.1 ch mode. Works fine. Wthat did you change on your phone? Maybe a hard reset will help?
Found out the prob. My equaliser was set to auto and because of that 5.1 wasnt being activated.
Thanks for the help.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
The music player is good with the 5.1. The auto eq setting is also good considering it reads id tags from genre and activates the particular eq preset for the genre(i think, after experimenting with some tracks)
However, the player only recognizes play and pause and llaunch player from the inline mic button of the headset. Would be nice to support press twice to next track, press thrice to go back
