MiSTer FPGA Forum

Oh what a great feature finally I found the feature I've been looking for! Thank you! Now I only need to find the right music...

One question - a bit off topic @wizzo - what is the wallpaper you used in your screenshot? It's driving me nuts. I searched everywhere and couldn't find it lol

Hi. I have set the menuvolume to 1 and it is still too loud in the menu.

Hi. I have set the menuvolume to 1 and it is still too loud in the menu.

In this case I would suggest using a tool to lower the volume of the audio file itself, this is how I do it anyway rather than using the volume adjustment. I recommend ffmpeg with the loudnorm filter

It keeps playing when I load the cores. I just want to auto-start a menu song, and stop when I go into the core. Here's my config:

[bgm]
playback = loop
playlist = none
startup = yes
playincore = no
corebootdelay = 0
debug = no
menuvolume = 5
defaultvolume = 7

I recently tried the auto volume change feature of the MiSTer BGM script and it works some of the time, but quite often causes music playback to stop completely. Without the auto volume change the music always stops and starts perfectly as expected (stop when launching a core, start when returning to menu).

With the auto volume adjust setting active though, quite often the playback remains stopped even after returning to main menu.

Whenever this happens, I can see this process visible in the output of ps:

sh -c echo "volume 5" > /dev/MiSTer_cmd

If I manually kill this process, the music starts playing again.

Reading one of the old commits in the repo, it sounds very similar to this, although not sure whether it’s related:

I have 2 MiSTers, that are identical apart from the brand of sd card they use, and this issue happens on both of them when trying to use the auto volume adjust feature. Not sure whether it’s a bug or something unique about my setup. I’ve used the bgm.sh script for months and never had any issues, it’s only when enabling this feature that this happens. Does anyone else see this happen when they’ve set the custom volume levels via bgm.sh?

This is intense...
Started a huge playlist... who need games

Kind regards
