A method for amplifier volume specification and control, the method includes: applying an initial volume level to an amplifier; determining one or more of: which A/V component has been selected for use, which channel or frequency is being outputted, and the type of outputted A/V content; modifying the initial amplifier volume level with one or more stored volume level settings in response to at least one of the following: the determined A/V component in use; the selected channel and frequency outputted, and the type of outputted A/V content; wherein the one or more stored volume level settings include: received volume level settings for audio/video (A/V) components; received volume level settings for selected channels and frequencies that are outputted by the A/V components; and received volume level settings for A/V content.

Method and system for assigning independent audio volume settings to components, channels, and media content

A method and system of damage prevention from weather occurrences is provided wherein incoming notifications from weather services are used to take action on user specified and configurable powered devices. Threshold levels may be set based on severity of weather occurrences. The threshold levels may be reset or reconfigured by a user of the system. Different threshold levels may be set for different devices in order that different devices may be deactivated at different threshold levels.
