Hi all,

Is it posible to read out the system volume on OSX Mavericks?

Thanks in advance,

Hans Willem

I would write a shell script and call it from the [shell] object. You will need to parse the output of this command:

osascript -e 'get volume settings'

Hi again,

I have some trouble getting this to work.
I now have this:

[osascript -e 'get system volume']
|
[shell]
|
[print STDOUT]

I think the shell object is correctly executing the shell script, but it doesn't return anything. Not when I use print STDOUT, nor when I use [symbol] or any other objects I tried. Am I missing something?

Thanks!
Hans Willem

Hi,

Just a little comment about your diagram above (although I don't believe this to be the source of your problem, probably this is just a typo): you should have [osascript -e 'get system volume'( as a message, not as an object like [osascript -e 'get system volume'].

Hi,

Thanks for the correction. It was a typo indeed

So does anybody know how to get a return from [shell] that I can parse?
