Description Guillaume Desmottes 2011-08-15 13:39:55 UTC 
I guess it should display the level of the sound currently recorded?
Comment 1 Emilio Pozuelo Monfort 2011-08-15 23:13:59 UTC 
Yes, as it happens in the sidebar in empathy-av. We should do this using libpulse.
Comment 2 Guillaume Desmottes 2011-09-01 07:40:08 UTC 
Anything blocking it or that's just a matter of implementing it?
Comment 3 Emilio Pozuelo Monfort 2011-09-01 10:09:45 UTC 
There's nothing blocking it.
Comment 4 Guillaume Desmottes 2011-10-12 16:14:50 UTC 
Jon pointed in bug #661190 that the sound system settings has a widget to display volume that could be used instead.
Comment 5 Guillaume Desmottes 2011-12-15 12:50:51 UTC 
Actually we don't need this any more as the UI to control volume has been removed:

    Remove call input volume configuration
    
    As we rely on pulseaudio there is no point in saving our own volume
    configuration, pulseaudio does that for us. If we do save it, then we
    have no idea which volume to pick after connecting to pulse (the one we
    save, the one pulse saved, a random value?).
    
    On top of that our configuration implementation is plain ugly, the
    level meter didn't work etc. This is all much better configured using
    the gnome-control-center sound panel, which is pretty nice for inputs
    and saves its volume on pulse for us to re-use :)
