Sometimes I have almost silent video playback and loud intros when playing games. What’s the matter with the differences ? Volumouse gives you immediate control of the volume on your computer making it possible to alter it without leaving the application that you are currently working with.

Once installed you can configure up to five rules that define when and how you are able to control the volume with your mouse wheel. By default two rules are already in place. You can change the volume with the mouse wheel by pressing ALT or by clicking the left mouse button. You might want to change this behavior if you want to use volumouse in games for instance. ALT and left mouse are often used for other actions and this could pose problems.

It is very easy to change the key that is used to change the volume or define other actions (program window must be active..). This is a very good way to use on conjunction with your video player. The rule could be: When my videoplayer is active I want to change the volume with the mouse wheel.

Very easy and simple to use, works with all windows operating systems starting with windows 98.
