turn volume past 100%

Thu Jun 02, 2016 12:06 am
I need to turn volume past 100% the default setting is far to conservative.

How can I do this? Some setting to enable it?

Bug 351438 - scale max volume value to more than 100%
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=351438

What's next?
One thing that users are requesting is volume overdrive - ability to increase volume over 100%. That's something I'd like to eventually have, but I'm not sure if it makes it into the new release.

That's it, I hope you'll like all the new features (and also fixes) that are coming with Plasma 5.7!

An older topic - with the KMix: How To Increase KDE Volume Beyond 100% - viewtopic.php?f=66&t=98230

- You enable the overdrive from the KMix settings:

- After the KMIx restart the KMix 100 is Pulse audio 153 %
