NPR Volume way lower about pidora HOT 2 CLOSED

AFAIK mpg123, the program that plays the NPR broadcasts, doesn't have a way to set the volume via the command line. You can do it if you're playing it front of you in a shell, but even then you have to first set an argument.

There is a roundabout way of fixing this.

1. Set the Pi's volume high enough that you can hear NPR.
2. When Pandora starts back playing, press the Volume Down button until Pandora is at an acceptable level. Record how many times you have to press it.
3. Open up /home/pi/.config/pianobar/config in your favorite text editor and add the following line to the configuration: volume = -x with x being the number of times you hit volume down.
4. Quit pianobar by pressing q on the main interface and then press enter to start it back up. The volume should be the same.

Let me know if this works or not. Or if these instructions weren't clear, let me know and I'll try to explain it better.

Seems to have worked. Thanks.
