Class Details

class GstAudio.StreamVolume
Bases:

GObject.GInterface

Structure:

GstAudio.StreamVolumeInterface

This interface is implemented by elements that provide a stream volume. Examples for such elements are #volume and #playbin.

Applications can use this interface to get or set the current stream volume. For this the “volume” GObject.Object property can be used or the helper functions GstAudio.StreamVolume.set_volume() and GstAudio.StreamVolume.get_volume(). This volume is always a linear factor, i.e. 0.0 is muted 1.0 is 100%. For showing the volume in a GUI it might make sense to convert it to a different format by using GstAudio.StreamVolume.convert_volume(). Volume sliders should usually use a cubic volume.

Separate from the volume the stream can also be muted by the “mute” GObject.Object property or GstAudio.StreamVolume.set_mute() and GstAudio.StreamVolume.get_mute().

Elements that provide some kind of stream volume should implement the “volume” and “mute” GObject.Object properties and handle setting and getting of them properly. The volume property is defined to be a linear volume factor.
