Volume is lower in MBC

[christoph86 12]

Quick question. When playing a movie in MBC the volume is quite a bit lower than live and recorded tv through WMC. Not a big deal, but I do have to turn up volume quite a bit. Is there a tweak or adjustment I for this?

This would be related to the source files or the codecs - unless you are playing remotely and directly adjusting the volume.

I figured as much but thought I'd ask.

Try to adjust it at the hardware level

• Go to Control Panel, select sound, then double click on your active sound device
• Select the "Enhancements" tab
• Depending on the type of audio hardware, you should have an option for "Loudness Equalization"

This will equalize the dB across all your media to the same level.

Took awhile to reply back but loudness equalization worked perfectly
