`Mopidy <https://www.mopidy.com/>`_ extension for ALSA volume control.


Dependencies
============

- A Linux system using ALSA for audio playback.

- ``pyalsaaudio``. Bindings for using the ALSA API from Python. The package is
  available as ``python-alsaaudio`` in Debian/Ubuntu.


Installation
============

Install by running::

    sudo python3 -m pip install Mopidy-AlsaMixer

See https://mopidy.com/ext/alsamixer/ for alternative installation methods.


Configuration
=============

To use Mopidy-AlsaMixer the ``audio/mixer`` configuration value must be set to
``alsamixer`` in the Mopidy configuration file::

    [audio]
    mixer = alsamixer

The default Mopidy-AlsaMixer configuration will probably work for most use
cases. If not, the following configuration values are available:

- ``alsamixer/card``: Which soundcard to use, if you have more than one.
  Numbered from 0 and up. 0 is the default.

- ``alsamixer/control``: Which ALSA control to use. Defaults to ``Master``.
  Other typical values includes ``PCM``. Run the command ``amixer scontrols``
  to list available controls on your system.

- ``alsamixer/min_volume`` and ``alsamixer/max_volume``: Map the Mopidy volume
  control range to a different range. Values are in the range 0-100. Use this
  if the default range (0-100) is too wide, resulting in a small usable range
  for Mopidy's volume control. For example try ``min_volume = 30`` and
  ``max_volume = 70`` to map Mopidy's volume control to the middle of ALSA's
  volume range.

- ``alsamixer/volume_scale``: Either ``linear``, ``cubic``, or ``log``. The
  cubic scale is the default as it is closer to how the human ear percieves
  volume, and matches the volume scale used in the ``alsamixer`` program.

Example ``alsamixer`` section from the Mopidy configuration file::

    [alsamixer]
    card = 1
    control = PCM
    min_volume = 0
    max_volume = 100
    volume_scale = cubic
