I discovered the ability of the Android client to control my OpenPGT installation on a Windows PC. It seems to be quite nice but  
Tom there is a problem with volume control.  
It I connect with my Android and adjust the volume using the Android, the volume works. But if I lower the volume and then stop using the remote the volume output from OpenPHT can never be adjusted high enough from that point on. It doesn’t matter if I reboot the OpenPHT computer, I can never get the volume high enough.  
If I then connect using the Android, I can get the volume working again.  
The only way to fix the issue is to always turn up the Andoid volume to full before I stop using it. From then on, it works OK using OpenPHT only. I have reproduced this on the latest release and on my second OpenPHT installation with an older OpenPHT install. This does NOT occur on the Plex WEB client.  
So where do I report this bug?  
Tom
