Hi there,

I want to access kmix with qdbus from the command line, but I have not much clue about D-Bus so I wonder about the right syntax.

I see I have the kmix D-Bus running:

qdbus org.kde.kmix

/kmix/KMixWindow/actions/increase_volume /kmix/KMixWindow/actions/decrease_volume

What is now the correct qdbus command to change volume?

Ah! found it: (search via qdbusviewer helps)

qdbus [--system] [--literal] [servicename] [path] [method] [args]

used with

qdbus org.kde.kmix /kmix/KMixWindow/actions/increase_volume

gives you a long list ... method void com.trolltech.Qt.QAction.trigger() ...

result up:

qdbus org.kde.kmix \ /kmix/KMixWindow/actions/increase_volume com.trolltech.Qt.QAction.trigger

and down:

qdbus org.kde.kmix \ /kmix/KMixWindow/actions/decrease_volume com.trolltech.Qt.QAction.trigger

don't forget toggle mute:

qdbus org.kde.kmix \ /kmix/KMixWindow/actions/mute com.trolltech.Qt.QAction.trigger

HTH, Yamaban out.
