Hi,

I have a kodi installation I've set up for an elderly couple. Somehow they repeatedly manage to either completely mute Kodi or lower the volume, either by remote, or with the iOS remote app.

Is there a way to completely disable mute function, and any volume control in Kodi, locking it at 100% ?

All sound output is via a DAC and very high end audio system, so we want unadulterated audio output from the Kodi box.

I've tried setting:

xml:


<audio>

        <mute>false</mute>

        <fvolumelevel>1.000000</fvolumelevel>

</audio>

But this seems to have no effect and the properties are still available in guisettings.xml

Try removing those functions from the keymap.xml.

Try removing those functions from the keymap.xml.

I'll give that a go, thanks Hitcher. I assume they'll need to be removed from system and userdata keymaps?

[Hitcher]

I think userdata should override system.

The keymap loading sequence is

System > master profile userdata > currently used profile userdata (if used).

If you want more details, have a look in the debug log (wiki) as the loading of each keymap is recorded there.

To delete an already assigned keymap action, just assign the function the "noop" action. See keymap (wiki) on the wiki for details (bottom of section 6.1 for that).
