Hmmmm, interesting.
Do you have to have the mouse pointer over the loudspeaker icon? In
Zoom Player i used to be able to have the mouse almost anywhere and even
without the taskbar or controls panels showing the wheel would still
work.
Re: your questions 1 & 2, errr it just happens (or rather the volume
change doesn't happen) all the time on my machine. I'll investigate
different setups now that i know it does wok elsewhere, i thought it was
just a feature of linux at the moment.
I've just noticed the space bar does pause :)
Thanks for getting back to me on this issue too. Good luck and have fun :)
Regards from
Tom

This will greatly aid us in tracking down your problem and resolving

fine for me.

Binary package hint: totem
Wishlist item, not a bug
I miss controlling the volume with my mouse wheel. It is possible but very
awkward and inelegant. I have to open the volume pop-up and make sure the mouse
arrow is in the right place. Opening the volume pop-up automatically mutes the
volume, which is often exactly right for what i want but again seems clumsy.
Zoom Player was great because it allowed me to configure the mouse wheel to do
any of the main functions and i could even click the mouse wheel to cycle
through until it gave me the function i wanted.
There aren't any players that allow the mouse wheel to alter the volume and
the up/down arrows dont seem to change the volume either. Ideally i'd like
the left and right arrows to skip along the timeline with up and down being for
volume and space to pause.
Totem is far and away the best as far as i can tell and i think these slight
changes would help enormously.
Thanks all volunteers again
Good luck and have fun :)
