VolumeControl.cpp? Location and turn off logging?

[JamesRIves]

Hi everyone,

Can anyone tell me the exact location of the volumecontrol.cpp file on a standard retropie/ES install file structure? I can't seem to find the file.

Also, is there a simple way to turn off volume control.cpp's error logging to the terminal? I'm attempting to make my install as "clean" as possible, but for some reason, volumecontrol.cpp is one of the only files that occasionally reports errors to the terminal (before launching a rom, etc).

Thanks,

Jim

I can't seem to find the file.

There is no such file. The file is part of the source code, but it's compiled in in Emulationstation, the message you're seeing shows the location - in the program - that's generating the log message.

To silence such warning, find the autostart.sh script that starts ES and replace

emulationstation

with

emulationstation 1>&2 2>/dev/null

This should send the erorrs, or any log messages from ES, to /dev/null - and not show them on the console.

Thanks. I'll give that a try tonight.

Your suggestion worked great! Thanks!
