Title: DVD Audio Volume
Post by: benn600 on August 19, 2007, 06:14:04 pm

I find that the audio output for DVDs is about 30% lower than the volume for audio files.  I went into Cyberlink's controls and set it to the noisy setting but it doesn't seem to do anything.  Where can I configure this?  I really need some sort of boost.  The main issue is that we use the sound card volume to control the volume and we typically keep DVDs at 100% but if we forget to turn it down, starting a song blasts everything.  Plus, 100% for DVDs isn't even enough.

Use FFDShow or AC3 filter for audio decoding. These DS filters have comprehensive options for adjusting the volume level and dynamic range.

You can download the latest AC3 Filter from this link:
