Hello,
A small request to Fond for ambdec: would it be possible to save the
main volume setting together with the configuration file? I would like
to start ambdec from a script without having to set the volume
manually each time.
Thanks! And specially thank you for making and sharing all your very
useful tools.

It is absolutely intentional if Ambdec doesn't do this, and
a safety feature. When driving 24 high-power speakers you
don't want any very loud surprises...
Also the configuration files are meant to store a decoder
definition for a given speaker layout, not the complete state
of any particular program. These are quite separate things,
even if the only difference in this case (ignoring transient
things such as solo buttons) is just the volume control.
Would having a command line option to set the initial
volume solve your practical problem ?

(and i agree with your original intention, you shouldn't hang me by
default. but a command line option is sufficiently arcane to safely
assume the user knows what s/he is doing.)
thanks,

Of course audio engineers don't use rope but microphone
cable, and when trying to hang themselves they ensure
there's an XLR plug within reach... :-)

Thanks Fons,
I agree with your points, and yes, a command line option to set the
volume would be more than enough for me.
Cheers,
Hector

Available now as ambdec-0.2.4
Added -V <initial-volume-setting-in-dB>
Note there's also ambdec_cli in case you don't need
anything interactive or visual.
