      Hello guys and thank you in advance.
      I tried to look in the forums for this but didnt find anything. Bascially when its going into my video screensaver the videos are extremely loud. No matter what I slide the slider to in ES if its between 1-100 the volume on video snaps is maxed. If I put it to 0, then snaps are muted. Does anyone know a fix for this, I would like to have my screensaver going at night at very low volume. Thank you so much.

      Audio Card = Default
      Audio Device= HDMI
      OMX Plater Audio Device= Both

      EDIT: So I just found out if I disable OMX player for video screen saver the volume slider works, but is this how its suppose to be?

        Try using alsa for OMXplayer's audio device.

          @mitu Hello Mitu. So I changed it to alsa and it seems to work as well, but it makes navigating the video games more laggy, any reason for that? Thanks for your reply
