@hb0nes Trial and error. And several months hitting my head on the walls.
Thanks 👍
Thanks for this. Worked like a charm
Omg thank you, this worked. How did you find the proper key definition for laptop volume keys? I am really curious.
You can use xev for that!
Thank you ! {for those who doesn't get it, if you added lines 24-27, the hot keys are:
- MOD+F9 mute
- MOD+F11 down
- MOD+F12 up
worked fine with dwm-bar+pulse.sh
}
Thank You
It looks great. Does it work with dose wheels in key keyboard?
It works thanks so much
It works perfectly. Thank you very much !
@manukll
static const char
*light_up[] = {"/usr/bin/light", "-A", "5", NULL},
*light_down[] = {"/usr/bin/light", "-U", "5", NULL};
static Key keys[] = {
{ 0 , XF86XK_MonBrightnessUp , spawn , {.v = light_up}} ,
{ 0 , XF86XK_MonBrightnessDown, spawn , {.v = light_down}} ,
};
You'll need to install light package, of course.
What are the keys to change vol?
Thanks, it work on my laptop.
KINO
Thanks! It helped!
Thanks bro, it helpful.
I want ask you if can I use it because I am not finding the licencing?
thanks it helped a lot!
i have a problem... how can i change the mute and volume of Headphone and Master simultaneously? because when i mute when my Headphone is connected it doesn't mute it...
So, this question might be stupid, but where is the constants definition section? I can't seem to find it.
@oyMarcel Look for the section where constants are defined. The C syntax is static const char *pointer
.
@ahmedsamyh You'll need to write a small script or program in the language of your choice that executes what you need and map it to a key combination in your keyboard, I advice you write another to undo it as well ;-).
Worked like a charm!
Amazing! Thanks.
This works! Thanks.
PERFECT
That helped me. Thank you so much :-D
In case you use amixer:
static const char *upvol[] = { "/usr/bin/amixer", "set", "Master", "5%+", NULL };
static const char *downvol[] = { "/usr/bin/amixer", "set", "Master", "5%-", NULL };
static const char *mutevol[] = { "/usr/bin/amixer", "set", "Master", "toggle", NULL };
Check the +/- position
i used amixer long time ago but thanks :)
how do i install the x11 dev thing on arch?
GOD BLESS YOU DUDE!
If you're using pulse and your default is not always the same, use:
static const char *upvol[] = { "/usr/bin/pactl", "set-sink-volume", "@DEFAULT_SINK@", "+5%", NULL };
static const char *downvol[] = { "/usr/bin/pactl", "set-sink-volume", "@DEFAULT_SINK@", "-5%", NULL };
static const char *mutevol[] = { "/usr/bin/pactl", "set-sink-mute", "@DEFAULT_SINK@", "toggle", NULL };
With pipewire
I ended up using @DEFAULT_AUDIO_SINK@
so I didn't have to fetch the Audio sink ID with wpctl status
; seems to be working:
static const char *upvol[] = { "/usr/bin/wpctl", "set-volume", "@DEFAULT_AUDIO_SINK@", "5%+", NULL };
static const char *downvol[] = { "/usr/bin/wpctl", "set-volume", "@DEFAULT_AUDIO_SINK@", "5%-", NULL };
static const char *mutevol[] = { "/usr/bin/wpctl", "set-mute", "@DEFAULT_AUDIO_SINK@", "toggle", NULL };
Edit: and of course thanks a million for the gist
@czardien thank you for the contribution and you're very welcome. 😁
@AidenThing thank you for your contribution and my apologies for not seeing it before.
For wpctl it's wise to set a maximum limit for set-volume; above 100% distortion will creep in, and just for safety too. Add "-l 1.0" to the wpctl command to increase volume to avoid that.
Awesome! Thank you so much.
Omg thank you, this worked. How did you find the proper key definition for laptop volume keys? I am really curious.
