Volume_Buddy

Volume buddy allows the user to change individual volume of applications using key board shortcuts. You no longer have to disturb your workflow, remove the need to minimise your current focused app to change a volume of a program.

Features

• GUI interface:

    • Shows current audio streaming applications: Name, Current Volume, Current Bind
    • Dynamically change the volume step
    • Dynamically change the bound key to any app

• Change any app which streams audio in windows.

Usage

A distributed exe can be found in the releases tab if you don't wish to set up the development environment.

Setting up the dev enviroment:

• Python 3.X (tested with 3.7)

• Dependencies:
    - keyboard: https://github.com/boppreh/keyboard
    - pycaw: https://github.com/AndreMiras/pycaw

Using the app is simple, set the binds you want in the bind column of the table. for example if you want to be bound to 'a' simply input 'a' in the third column and press the 'update bind' button.
