[Release] Volume Control (Windows 7+ only) remake

It doesn't crash in my plugin though.

I made another picture for you to see what it looks like. Bear in mind, that this is only my hobby and I only know so much about using Visual Studio, but I don't think I can get more out of this dump

This is the call stack, which means that the method in the top is the one actually crashing, but you can trace down which method called the one beforehand. The first ~20 ones are from some dll files of windows. It is possible to freely get debug information about those from the microsoft servers -> I did this in this case, so you can see what is happening. It doesn't really matter, but it's nice to see the difference to where I cannot do this.

The last "windows-based" dll is ole32.dll (it's a framework for doing stuff with user interfaces) and the method has something to do with drag and drop. Nothing surprising here, because as you described, you force the crash by using drag and drop.

The next one is in qwindows.dll, which is part of the QT-Framework, which makes it easier for developers to make platform independent user interfaces. Teamspeak uses this.

So the bug is either in QT itself or in teamspeak, which calls the QT methods with inappropriate parameters. I can't get more information out of this. since I dont have debug information for either of those.

Now I don't know if some code someplace makes any wrong assumptions based on that, but it appears to me the 64bit TS3 client is installed in the 32-bit Program Files location (x86).

Yeah of course I know you do this in your spare time :)
Is there anything else I can give you to help find the cause? Its not worked since I upgraded to Windows 10

Part of my trouble shooting process with TeamSpeak support was to change the location of the installation. Didnt work no matter where it was installed. :(

It's not about being my hobby as in "I use my spare time", but more like "I learned it by myself, so I could miss some information, because I just don't know how to fully use VisualStudio right".

And in my lengthy description about my findings, I somehow skipped the conclusion: It's not in my powers to fix anything, since I can only debug my own code. I can only look at the stuff going wrong, if the crash is caused by my plugin.

Ok. Then just to let you know the plugin isnt compatible with windows 10 :(

This is just not true, because I use Windows10 myself.

My plugin is not the problem for your crashes. In your original thread you even posted a crash dump without my plugin in use...???

I posted another one with it. I even stated in my other thread that when it was turned off it, TS was fine. I have posted here with the crash logs with it running.
My TS only crashes with your plugin running. Not used it for the last 2 days and not crashed at all. Been testing for several weeks.


Up to you if you want to look into it more. Ill say it again: Use to work fine for me on Windows 7. As soon as I upgraded it stopped working.
Thats the facts whether you like them or not. Not trying to be a dick here... im posting because I was hoping for a fix.

Ill just find another system.

This is how the plugin is working on win 10 on my side: http://imgur.com/X1cfO2n

Was using 64 bit client. Gonna try 32 bit today.

Hey, I have been using this for some time now and for the most part it works perfectly but I have 1 issue with it. When playing overwatch, which I have added to the exclude list it works most of the time but at seemingly random it totally mutes overwatch when someone speaks and doesnt turn it up again. So for the most times when someone speaks overwatch is not touched and the volume normal but sometimes it turns it down and then doesnt turn it up again.

Seems to crash on Windows 10 on the 64bit edition of TS3

Hi,
How to download volume control plugin for TS3 ?

Thanks.

Do you update plugin to new API21?

While the official one has been deprecated, downloads for the community one are at the bottom of the first post of http://forum.teamspeak.com/threads/9...7-only)-remake.
That is for current stable release of the client, though, not yet for the beta.

Can I boost up 1 channel volume for all users (so I can hear them better) with this?

Hello! Our community from Planetside 2 is very thankful for you plugin, it works perfectly, but all people, who decided to use Recursion Tracker in the game (it is a program in game vocals for both achievements and other moments - https://recursiontracker.com/ ) with your plugin have troubles, because teamspeak crashes every 30-40 minutes. If we use your plugin without using Recursion Tracker everything works perfectly. If we switch off your plugin in Teamspeak and use Recursion Tracker everything works perfectly, but when we use teamspeak with your plugin and Recursion Tracker Teamspeak begin to crash. Maybe you could find the solution how we repair this problem.

Thank you.

Sorry for the late reply. I dont get email notifications for some reason, although I have enabled them.

I bumped the API version in an update, unfortunately I lost my project files so I had to use an old backup from 1.7.

As I dont really have time to further develop this plugin I also added the source code in the first post to download. If anyone wants to carry on with this project feel free to do so.

Broken again (another API update, I guess). Did someone pick it up, by any chance?

Latest attached version (Volume_Control_Goreki_API21_1.9.zip) works fine for me in client 3.1.

3.1? I've got 3.0.19 and the updates check says it's the latest version.

Why don't you release this as official addon, not only on forum , it's hard to find out it exists.

We work on it :p

Where can I download the latest version work with TS3 3.1? Page 1 link goes to myteamspeak and no link to the plugin.

TIA

Hi,

actually you can download the latest version for API 21 here -> Download.

On the addon page you can find it after the verification from the teamspeak team.

- Broesel -

Thanks for that!

that ... doesnt work. The plugin doesnt even show up in the menu and the volume is never affected. Probably because the current version is 3.1.0.1 and the TS devs are notorious for changing literally everything in every update, breaking all addons in the process

Hi,

it works fine here.

The .dll's are installed in which directory?

Hi,

you can find now the addon on the addon page

Hey,

Thanks for this plugin @Goreki
Also thanks to @Broesel01 for putting it on the add-ons page.
I've been using this since 2014 and when I saw the new TS3 update broke it (again) I was slightly afraid of not getting it back, nice to see it still getting updates.

Altough @Broesel01 could you please give credit to @Goreki ?

Sadly the updated version (api 21) doesn't seem to be working for me on V 3.1.0.1

OK heres how you can get it to (actually) work : install the beta Version of TS3 (3.1.1) and this plugin will start to work ... kinda retarded, i know

I can not get this add on to work anymore. It worked the first time I installed it after updating TS to the beta 3.1.1 version. Now it will not work at all. I have uninstalled and re-downloaded it several times and it will not work. I an running win 10 Pro and have the C++ 2013 package installed....

Doesn't work with TS 3.1.4. Can't even load.

Hello.
Where can I find the original VolumeControl ?
This plugin screws the volume of all the apps even if nobody is speaking in ts, really annoying.

Hello.I have a problem with my client probably beacuse it is now 3.1.6 and it needs to be updated.So,the problem is simple it not raises the volume back where i set it after someone talks to me,it stays on the suppressed volume.What can be done?

Yes,for me as well.

First, a solution for everyone who is having problems:

use TeamSpeak version 3.1.1.1

second is me saying THANK YOU because this plugin is absolutely VITAL to my voice experience.

Third is a feature request:

Instead of the "supress volume while self speaking" checkbox, I'd prefer to have 3 volume sliders:

- volume while self speaking
- volume while others speaking
- normal volume

This would give the user the ability to have a low volume while they're speaking but a high volume while others are speaking, because it is annoying when chatty people constantly interrupt music, or especially those who refuse to turn of voice activation and are sending constant clicks and other noises. And generally I'd like to have more suppression while I am speaking than when others are speaking.

Was just coming over to ask how to change the suppressed volume. Took a while to find this post.

hey @Broesel01, @Goreki,

I found that the plugin does not lower the volume of Teamspeak itself when I speak, therefore people hear themselves speaking when I speak (in the case you speak at the same time with someone else).

This of course only occurs when I use speakers instead of headphones as output, but I guess this is the whole use case of the plugin, right?

api update
