When using this plugin, the Volume Control setting should always be set to "Output level is fixed at 100%" in order to provide a fixed line-level input to the preamp of your AVR. Otherwise, you are effectively running with two preamps in series, both controlled by the same volume control. An LMS client volume setting of 40%, for instance, will result in a signal of .40 times .40, or 16% of full volume. Similarly, 50% will yield 25%, etc. Some client apps (SqueezeCtrl for one) confusingly require setting an app preference in order to process volume requests when the LMS player level is set at 100%. Most work fine without any special consideration. The most important reason to use the fixed 100% output level is to avoid modifying the digital signal in the analog domain, which can introduce distortion.
