SilentRob Posted August 17, 2003 Share Posted August 17, 2003 Howzit goin?Something that's been bugging me about some video files (usually DVD rips) is that the volume is unacceptably low. Even with the player's, Windows' and my speakers' volume cranked up to full blast, the sound coming out is what I would expect with the software amps at half volume and my speakers barely on.I understand that it has something to do with the already low volume of the AC3 on DVDs... but some people don't amp the sound during the conversion to AVI/MPG, whatnot... So, my question is... is there a piece of software that will bump up the playback volume another few notches, without me having to extract, amplify, and reintegrate the sound? If not, I'll just use VirtualDub... just trying to not have to do that for 1/5 of the videos I watch.Thanks,SilentRob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierreken Posted September 14, 2003 Share Posted September 14, 2003 You should be able to amplify the volume in the AC3 Codec Settings. For example I use the "AC3 Filter 0.70b" and in the codec settings I increase the master volume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spockboy Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 I use SimpleDivX to rip DVD's. It uses AC3 Filter, and it has an option in the interface to Normalize volume in "midnight mode". I assume this is just a switch for one of the filters that it calls ... it may be in Besweet though, and not AC3 Filter. I would just use SimpleDivX, its much easier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twisted Maniac Posted September 16, 2003 Share Posted September 16, 2003 use SVCD's those are much better than divx:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
