I have a server running Plex Media Server. From my windows machine on the network, I access it through [http://plex.tv](http://plex.tv). Up until last night I’ve been able to control the volume by simply rolling the mouse wheel. Today I open Plex and the interface is different and volume control does not work. Has there been an update to the interface and is the missing volume control a bug still waiting to be fixed? ---

Got it! Up/Down arrows work as long as I actually click on the browser window first. With the mouse wheel I didn’t have to do that, though I think that’s a Windows thing, not Plex specific. ---

I’m also experiencing this since upgrading to v1.8.4.4249 on my local web player at localhost:32400. Arrow keys work, mouse wheel does not work any longer (I really like being able to control volume with the mousewheel!) ---

I too am no longer able to control the volume with the mouse wheel… very irritating… it only works when the cursor is literally hovering over the 1 inch volume bar… I really hope plex doesn’t start updating and changing things every couple months like Microsoft does… can we not have an option of how the interface looks/works??? there was NOTHING wrong with how it operated prior to this last weeks update… ---

Just took the latest update to Version 1.9.4.4325. The volume control with the mouse wheel isn’t working, again. Just a heads up to the folks who fix the bugs. ---

I’ve been disappointed with my last several upgrades due to this (seemingly minor) issue persisting. If the “old” method of being able to control plex volume via scrollwheel could be returned I would be very appreciative. The new method which requires hovering directly over the volume, and sliding in 25% increments is not an improvement. ---
