           Summary: Feature request: "stream volume modifiers"
           Product: PulseAudio
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: core

For supporting eg. replay gain and fading, I'd like to see a new concept
implemented: "stream volume modifiers". They would be like a second stream
volume in addition to the normal stream volume, but the volume modifiers
wouldn't be treated as something that is set by the user and thus needs to be
remembered. A music player could offload replay gain to pulseaudio by adding a
volume modifier for that. Pulseaudio could then even use the hw volume for
implementing the replay gain, if that's considered useful.

Stream fading could also be implemented using these volume modifiers, until a
better (ie. server-side) solution becomes available.
