How to increase the volume for all audio streams > 100 % in AOSP?
My Rationale
Occasionally, audio from a very useful proprietary application is too quiet to be audible. This is impossible to remediate at the application level because:
-
I am unable to request that the application author(s) implement a method of increasing the volume >100% intra-application, because it has no issue tracker.
-
I do not want to record the audio and manually increase the volume > 100 %, because that would be inconvenient.
My Question/Desire
Instead, hopefully it is achievable at the OS level. Consequently, [how] can I set any and/or all sound channels (especially the media channel) to > 100 % volume?
The Feasibility Of The Desired
-
xdaforums.com/t/mod-volume-boost-on-all-default-sounds-by-150-200-full-dynamic-range.2708966mentions that something referred to as "Viper4Android" provides this functionality, explicitly system-wide. However, I've been unable to ascertain confidently what it is, nor which of myriad projects sharing that name is relevant. -
This is available in the "Audio" plasmoid of (V6.2 of) the KDE Plasma DE, so I don't consider what I request unreasonable.
It's evidently not infeasibly difficult to implement for a custom AOSP distribution developer. Consequently, I expect it to be available in at least one of them, if it is infeasible otherwise.
