This message is used in an MMDRV_MESSAGE_PARAMSstructure passed to the WAV_IOControlfunction to request a waveform output driver to return the current volume level setting for the specified device.
Parameters
Return Values
MMSYSERR_NOERROR indicates success. Otherwise, the driver returns one of the MMSYSERR or WAVERR error values declared in the Mmsystem.h header file.
Remarks
The ACM sends this message by calling the audio driver's WAV_IOControlentry point through the DeviceIoControlfunction. Support for this message by drivers is optional. However, if the driver supports WODM_SETVOLUME, it must support this message. The following table shows which bytes in dwParam1indicate the volume settings for both stereo and monaural audio channels.
Channel | Portion of dwParam1used |
---|---|
Left channel | Low WORD |
Right channel | High WORD |
Single channel | Low WORD |
A value of 0 is silence, and a value of 0xFFFF is full volume.
