[FAEATURE REQUEST] Volume in CLI

[Ducke1001]

I can't find a volume setting in the CLI commands. It is present in the GUI. Have I overlooked something or is it not implemented there?

While playing audio, the keys to change the volume in TUI are Up Arrow and Down Arrow.

Ok. But it would be nice to be able to set a starting value. If I'm working, for example, I could start with 25% volume. Or can I set the start value in the config?

[Ducke1001]

I thought again. You use the system volume as a basis, OK. What would be important for me is to prevent sound output during a recording without generally blocking the sound in the system. Is that possible?

[stsaz]

Can you elaborate on your use-case? What kind of sound output do you want to prevent while recording?

[Ducke1001]

Yes you are right. I need to describe it better. At the moment I'm using Streamripper from Github to record from web radio. I can record one station with Streamripper and listen to another station with another program. However, Streamripper is very old and cannot convert for example aac files to mp3. I would like to replace the Streamripper with Phiola.

Added -vol option in v2.1-beta3. Use -volume 0 to initially mute the audio.

Thanks, it works fine. It only cracks once at the start of the recording.
