This was answered a couple of days ago, but here it is again:

// assumming using mciSendString methods
char command[64];
char buffer[16];
UINT cdaudio_id;
DWORD volume_level;

strcpy(command,"open cdaudio wait");
mciSendString(command, buffer, 16, NULL);
buffer[15] = 0;
cdaudio_id = (UINT)atoi(buffer);

volume_level = volume | (volume << 16);
auxSetVolume(cdaudio_id, volume_level);

Hi,

I'd like to change the volume of CD audio from within a game I'm working on. The tracks are played using MCI commands but I haven't been able to work out how to change the cd volume. Should I be looking at the mixer and line function from the Win32 SDK?

Can anybody point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

Martin
