如何以编程方式控制我的电脑音量？

Question

I have a keyboard without music keys, that for turn up and down the volume, play, stop, etc. of music in my PC. If you don't understand, this is my keyboard and this isn't.

I want to implement, in Windows and in Delphi or C#, a keyboard hook to create the volume feature in my keyboard, but I don't know how to turn up and down it by code. I was trying this and this examples, but didn't work (all in Delphi, by the way).

Do you know how to turn up and down the volume by code?

Answer 1

delphi code follows.

my keyhook sends a message to my main form with the key's VK code in LParam,

procedure TmainFrm.keyHook(var msg: TMessage);
begin
  case msg.LParam of
    VK_VOLUME_UP  : g_mixer.volume := g_mixer.volume + 2048;
    VK_VOLUME_DOWN: g_mixer.volume := g_mixer.volume - 2048;
    VK_VOLUME_MUTE: g_mixer.muted := not g_mixer.muted;
  end;
end;

the volume range is 0 .. 65535; out of band values are silently corrected.

Answer 2

Autohotkey would do the trick. It has a " SoundSet " command that can adjust volume/mute levels for all audio devices.

Answer 4

This is an addition to glob's excellent answer. SetMute/GetMute function declarations must use 32bit integer values

unit MMDevApi_tlb;
const
  DEVICE_STATE_ACTIVE       = $00000001;
  DEVICE_STATE_UNPLUGGED    = $00000002;
  DEVICE_STATE_NOTPRESENT   = $00000004;
  DEVICE_STATEMASK_ALL      = $00000007;

  IMMAudioEndpointVolume = interface(IUnknown)
  ['{5CDF2C82-841E-4546-9722-0CF74078229A}']
    Function SetMute(iMute: Integer; pguidEventContext: PGUID) :Integer; stdcall;
    Function GetMute(out iMute: Integer) :Integer; stdcall;

Change SetMute and GetMute declaration to use Integer variables and cast Delphi boolean to integer.

method calls are then var iMute: Integer AudioEndVol.SetMute(Integer(CheckBox1.Checked), @GUID_NULL); AudioEndVol.GetMute(iMute);

Using bool does not make trayicon identify mute state properly and unmute does not work at all. Same goes to getmute it must use 32bit integer out parameter or memory alignments are randomly corrupted. I did not understand a reasoning so googled and found an excellent JEDI article.

Some win32 calls are very very picky about the bitwise values, Delphi Bool/Boolean don't always go well with C counterparts. Use 32bit integer to represent C bool variable to have an exact bitwise match. Most win32 C methods are not that strict and work fine with bool/boolean. This specific MMDeviceAPI.SetMute function is a rare corner case and Delphi programmers are hit hard. http://blog.delphi-jedi.net/2008/09/25/bool-boolean-and-integer/
