Data Broker Volume Control

Table of Contents

This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of World of Warcraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.

The main goal of this addon is to provide a Data Broker icon/text to set the game volume, but you can use it in many other ways.

Usage

With a Data Broker display
With the icon on the minimap
With the command line

Icon

Left-Click: Mute sound
Right-Click: Display the sliders menu
Shift+Right-Click: Display the options menu

Options menu

Blizlike mute
Show/Hide the minimap icon
Queued volume boost
No tooltip mode

Close the menu

What is blizlike mute? Default mute behavior do not switch off music, with this disabled it will.

When using a DataBroker display, using the mouse wheel on the icon change the master volume value.

Queued volume boost will set master volume to 100%, unmute and enable background sounds when a random dungeon/raid/scenario group is ready, and return all options to previous state when entering the dungeon/raid/scenario.

No tooltip mode will display the sliders menu when hovering the icon, and the options menu will display on right click.

Command line

Commands: "/bv", "/brokervolume" (They do the same thing)

/bv: Display commands help.
/bv show: Show the minimap icon
/bv <master|effects|music|ambience> <0-100>, will set the volume for the given category.

Notes

If you find an error or have a suggestion please use the tickets page on WowAce, you can also help with localization.

When I click it on the broker bar, it mutes the game, which is fine. When I unmute it, it automatically puts the game music back on when I previously ticked it off in Blizz's sound area.

EDIT: Nvm, figured that putting blizzlike mute on seems to fix it :) Not obvious tho xD

Any chance to change the text when muted to simply say Mute? When using datatexts for ElvUI, it changes the text to Broker Volume: Mute. Other than that, it works great

This is an issue with ElvUI, you should be given the option to display label and/or text from a data broker addon, as any data broker display do (or should do).

If you are not given the option ask ElvUI dev to add it.

And as a quick fix, you can manually edit the "Core.lua" file in the addon folder and remove the line "label = L["Broker Volume"],". It should work.

I am working on an automatic volume max, background sound and unmute when a random dungeon/raid/scenario pop and back to normal when you are in.

I can add options, but not in the silders panel, in the options menu sure I can.
