It was 'solved' for a while but now it's back. I use a dedicated PC installed with Windows 2012R2 and JRiver via Air. Always when change back from another input on the Devialet or start playing something from JRiver the volume on the Devialet jumps to -12, which is on the loud side when you don't 'expect' it.
i have set 'Disabled volume' within JRiver at the moment, but other settings don't change the problem. The sound settings in control panel are set to 'exclusive mode'.
Does somebody has a clue what to set where to always use the Devialet settings for volume control?

In the configurator there is a setting for the start up volume, and that is -40.0 as a default. I assume you have adjusted that setting? General settings, in the upper left corner of the configurator screen. I can't help with any aspect of JRiver, but I would think that the configurator setting would overrule any other music interface.
I think you may be able to set input sensitivity for a particular input, but I think you are talking about the output volume, correct?
I use a Sonos Connect, and the input to the Dev is set to 'fixed' which means full volume from the Connect to the optical input. The Dev volume always controls the volume, and i've never had it start at any volume other than -40.0. That start up volume is of course only implemented when the amp is woken up from stand by.

Well, that's the thing, the Devialet is set tot the defeault -40, that's why it's strange. It only occurs when using Air over ethernet (i don't use wifi). Despite what i change on the Devialet or the PC, it starts playing at -12... Strange so to say, and annoying...

I believe you have set using Forced Volume out which will set the volume to -12dB

Something at the back of my mind was telling me I'd seen this problem before and I think you've got it. It's a volume setting or combination of settings on jRiver that seems to cause this weird behaviour.

Thank you all for the responses... I have checked all options, where do you set this forced volume?

Garry, somewhere you were explaining to set Forced volume in Tidal for AIR3 and I tried that. I can't remember what volume it went to but a similar thing happened. At the start of every new song, the volume went up on my D200. It only took me a few song before I'd had enough of it and turned it off.
So Bartype. I know you're running a completely different setup but you might find it in the same direction.
Good luck!

I can see I asked exactly the same question back in September 2014 on the jRiver forum! And no answers...
https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.p...ic=91503.0
From memory the problem *might* have been me setting Audio Device -> Device Settings... -> Maximise device volume during playback. I currently don't have that checked.
My Volume settings are
Volume mode: Disabled Volume
Volume Protection: unticked
Maximum volume: 100

Great, thank you guys! It was the 'Maximise device volume during playback setting'! A lot better this way!
