You have the problem that the volume buttons on your android phone make your
streaming device volume jump in non fine-grained steps, there is a fix available for android phones.
There is a proposed fix for a similar problem in the developer settings, but this fix only applies to bluetooth transmission.
The fix I write about here also works for Streaming output.
I do not want to use an extra app for this. It is possible to change a android system setting
by using the adb tool. Steps for fixing are:
- Install Java JDK - Get from Adoptium - Any LTS Version will work (required by SDKManager).
- Download and unpack Android Commandlinetools.
Download of adb on windows:
sdkmanager.bat --sdk_root="C:\Software\Development\AndroidSDK" "platform-tools"
Adapt the path of the sdk_root and run sdkmanager.bat in the folder you unpacked commandlinetools.
Connect your Phone to the laptop and put it into usb debugging mode - activate in the developer settings.
Upon connection, you should accept the connection on the phone and on the pc.
Run the follwing command from the folder you installed the platform-tools (bin folder):
adb shell settings put system volume_music_steps 100
Restart the phone for the setting to take effect.
Now you should be able to adapt the volume more easily.
