For people who are just too used to it being by the play/stop buttons...

Sorry it's not perfect but it works.

Make a backup of: (make a copy)
"C:\Program Files\SecondLife\skins\xui\en-us\panel_music_remote.xml"

Open the original:
"C:\Program Files\SecondLife\skins\xui\en-us\panel_music_remote.xml"

Delete all contents,
Paste this in place:




<panel bg_visible="false" border="false" border_visible="false" bottom="-34"
enabled="true" follows="left|top" hidden="false"
mouse_opaque="true" name="music_remote" width="200">


<icon name="music_icon" left="1" bottom="-19" width="12" height="12" image_name="music_icon.tga"/>

<slider bottom="-20" control_name="AudioLevelMusic" enabled="true" follows="left|top"
height="17" hidden="false" increment="0.05" initial_val="0.5" left="14"
max_val="1" min_val="0" mouse_opaque="true" name="Music Volume"
tool_tip="Change the volume using this slider" show_text="false" width="42" volume="true" />

<button bottom="-20" enabled="false" follows="left|top" font="SansSerif"
halign="center" height="15" hidden="false"
image_selected="button_anim_stop_selected.tga"
image_unselected="button_anim_stop.tga" label="" label_selected=""
left="53" mouse_opaque="true" name="music_stop" scale_image="true"
tool_tip="Stop media" width="15" />
<button bottom="-20" enabled="true" follows="left|top" font="SansSerif" halign="center"
height="15" hidden="false" image_selected="button_anim_play_selected.tga"
image_unselected="button_anim_play.tga" label="" label_selected=""
left="66" mouse_opaque="true" name="music_play" scale_image="true"
tool_tip="Play media stream" width="15" />
<button bottom="-20" enabled="false" follows="left|top" font="SansSerif"
halign="center" height="15" hidden="false"
image_disabled="button_disabled_32x128.tga"
image_disabled_selected="button_disabled_32x128.tga"
image_selected="button_anim_pause_selected.tga"
image_unselected="button_anim_pause.tga" label="" label_selected=""
left="66" mouse_opaque="true" name="music_pause" scale_image="true"
tool_tip="Pause media stream" width="15" />
</panel>




then Save the file and re-log(if you were logged in)


-If you have any problems - Delete the file you edited and restore the backup you made.

I take no responsibility if you fail.

Ooo thanks :D

I ended up getting rid of the icon and moving the slider over so the start/stop icons weren;t squished. I assume that swidening the tab to hold everything would be a code change :/

But anyway, yes! audio volume slider back where it belonged :D

um what was all that for?

audio controls are right there on the right hand side, easy to get to.

*shrug*

Well some people like listening to music but also may need to turn it down (but not necessarily off) when chatting or when commercials come on or a crappy song or turn it way UP when a great csong comes on, then down again when it's over, etc. WIth the new viewer you have to click the speaker button then look though a list of 7 other sliders for the sound one then close it again every time, OR leave yet another space hogging dialog up all the time.

Now.. it's right there wher it always was, easy to get to like before. In fact I wish the voice volume slider was also always visible...

Don't have a use for it? Don't use it...
