When playing from spotify to my node 2, the phone volume controllers act as volume controllers for the node2 (inside the spotify app), The problem is that sound increases/decreases in large steps, and must be overriden in the BluOS or on the node 2 itself. This is particularly problematic when trying to play background music. There are only two sound levels available: Way too loud to talk and way to low to hear the music. Anyone in here that knows how to deal with this? My telephone is a Samsung S7.

Best regards,

Mike

  Hi Mike

  Thanks for the feedback. I can't speak for Spotify's App, just that they send volume commands to our Players and do so based on their requirements. You can check out Spotify's site if others are experiencing similar issues with other 3rd party products.

  That being said, what you can try is this. In the Spotify App, when the volume slider appears on your phone (I'm using an A4) from the top, press and hold the blue circle and while keeping contact with the phone, slide your thumb straight down so you can see the volume slider and you can 'rock' your thumb back and forth to create finer volume adjustments. 

  This is a pretty standard functionality in both Android and iOS when dealing with sliders...  see if that helps.

  Dear readers,

  I had the same annoyance. Bit after updating my C388 firmware, volume now increases with steps of 1%/1dB depending on your setting. I updated C388, VFD and bluetooth firmware (read instructions before upgrading!).
