Sound would return at end of timeout.<br /><br />So, my suggestion of a desktop Icon is not as good as your existing Function key press, because the Desktop is typically hidden by open applications. Timed Mute could exist on a different Function key, or configured in the setup window of running Auto Mute.<br /><br />Thanks again.<br /><br />Jim RussellJim Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12028568379128477374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21154010.post-24622597101112372252010-04-27T18:27:30.382+03:002010-04-27T18:27:30.382+03:00Karpolan, here is a suggest modification to Auto M...Karpolan, here is a suggest modification to Auto Mute for use as a Commercial Mute (Skip) application when listening to radio on a Windows PC.<br /><br />I listen via RadioTime.com and it is really annoying when the commercials come on because some station really turn up the volume when broadcasting them.<br /><br />I haven't used Auto Mute so I can't suggest how the UI could be best modified to add this function, but instead, the ideal would be a tray icon near the Volume control, or a desktop icon that could be positioned above Volume, that once clicked on would mute the Headphone jack in 30Sec increments each time the Icon is clicked on, restoring Headphone sound at timeout. Mute would begin immediately on the first click of the mute Icon.<br /><br />It could get more fancy by allowing one to set the mute time, but a fixed 30Sec extendable in 30sec increments would be fine for me. It is a common, and familiar, way it is done on Playback recording equipment, for example DVR/DVDR TiVo type recorders for TV program recording and replay. So the one Mute Icon would be like a Remote Control skip button.<br /><br />Would be interested in your response. If you already have or know of such an app, I would appreciate a reference. I could test Auto Mute with Commercial Mute if you decide to modify it. I use Vista 32 w/Firefox browser and radio listening at Radiotime.com.<br /><br />Thank You,<br />Jim Russell<br />San DiegoJim Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12028568379128477374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21154010.post-85742383978858487122010-02-16T09:01:50.109+02:002010-02-16T09:01:50.109+02:00In the folder you've download it :) There is n...In the folder you've download it :) There is no installer for Auto Mute. <br /><br />You may close Auto Mute program using popup menu on the tray icon (near clock).KARPOLANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17818693367078242717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21154010.post-56211684232808854972010-02-16T08:26:46.341+02:002010-02-16T08:26:46.341+02:00No. This is a pretty fresh install of the OS.
