TV volume much lower than net radio/windows waves..

[Jayhovah]

Just like the topic says.. net radio, windows plays very strong and loud.. but the volume coming from watching TV is much softer.

I am using a PVR500 on a Via Epia SP13000, using onboard audio.

They both use the "wave" mixer so I cant even them out.. i would rather be able to boost the TV volume because i have to turn it up alot higher right now than I would like to (read: hiiiiiiisssssssssssssssss).

Thanks

i have found this as well. watching tv at a reasonable level then a system sound comes up and blam, there are two fred flintstone style silhouette holes through the wall into the next room.

i have been meaning to look into this but haven't gotten around to it. anyone else been down this road?

Have the same problem. Would love to find the answer...

I think ffdshow allows you to equalize the audio, which should help.

[volksman]

as soon as I start messing with FFdshow equalization ALL my sound drops to the TV level which is WAY too low....

All I can suggest is fiddling with the ffdshow settings and hope you find a combination that works well, otherwise you'll have to get used to different audio levels.

Fixed it....

In chasing for an answer to how to change volume in the music plugins I found out that you can remove the volume directives from the irremote.ini. This fixed the problem. Now my TV can go as loud as the rest of my players and I can control the music plug in volumes...(I made sure before making the switch that the volume on TV was 100%, then did the switch...not sure if that makes any diff or not...)

That one setting fixed like 3 problems for me... Begs to question: why does GB have an internal volume if its only use in the one player?

In fact Chud you gave me the answer! you still have this problem though? Mine disappeared. maybe you have that stuck reg key problem?
