[vlc-devel] [RFC PATCH 1/2] mmdevice: reflect the state of Sndvol slider

[Thomas Guillem]

FYI:
 - PowerDVD and MS Movies are doing like this patch (linear relation between slider and ISimpleAudioVolume)
 - MPC-HW and Itunes are doing like current VLC (x³ relation between slider and ISimpleAudioVolume)

I guess there is no wrong/good answer. Personally, I really prefer doing the MS Movies way.
