Why are volume steps so large?

I want to control my TV's volume more precisely. I'm really really annoyed that this setting doesn't exist. This setting needs to exist: Volume adjustment precision (DB per increment). Why doesn't this exist!?

Re: Why are volume steps so large?

It makes sense to limit user preferences in the following cases:

1. 

2. Tiny dev department budget.

Why do you limit my Roku experience!? I'm sorry I haven't watched any roku originaIs. Is it contempt for not watching any Roku originals? I commit that I'll watch one if you let me adjust the volume properly. I can't believe that I can't control the volume precisely on my tv.

Try reprogramming the remote for your tv, skip the first positive result by lying, click YES even it muted to see if subsequent codes work better.

Re: Why are volume steps so large?

Unfortunately, the remote is working. Volume increments 1 per click. The issue is that volume level 9 is far too quiet and volume level 10 is far too loud. In addition, when I plug in a blue tooth headset, the minimum volume setting before the headphones go silent is still really loud. I want to be able to adjust my volume precisely. TVs from the beginning of the last century had volume knobs that accurately adjusted the volume. They did it in the 1900s. Rokus can't do it in 2024.
