This is something on tvs and even PC monitors/speakers that’s left me a little confused. Sliders/incremental input are okay for basic settings adjustments, but if you know exactly what you want your settings at…Why isn’t there a direct number input option on more devices?

E.g. brightness: slider/increment or input number within [range].
Volume: slider/increment or input number within [range].

I was helping adjust a somewhat newer tv awhile back and it brought this back to mind.

    Most people use Arabic numerals, but some cultures switch comma and points and some cultures put decimal seperator at different spots.

      You have a TV with volume controls in the thousands, or that lets you adjust by tenths or smaller?
