![]() If you’re using PMP or anything that’s actually running on the HTPC - problem solved. If you’re using an HTPC running Windows - wellllll… turn on that Loudness Equalizer in the Playback device properties. Yep, that last one is a work-around to be sure. Crank up the volume or pass it through Windows Loudness equalizer, then through VLC, through the wire to the TV. This is usually sufficient to cure any audio ailments - but the occasional item (the one that was created by idiots) does refuse to cooperate. In these cases they are passed through Xmedia Recode for an audio normalization process bringing the base levels up to 89db. Sometimes, mostly with the dreaded DTS (that is immediately converted to AAC 2.0 LC, AC3 2.0 or AC3 5.1 upon arrival) volume levels are difficult to manipulate by any means the device offers. ![]() Same with Roku, My Android Phone, ect., ect., ect. If I instruct AFTV to deal with only Stereo, that happens in the device, and suitable volume is achieved. If I do send AC3 5.1 I get very low volume. Having only Stereo Speakers it makes little sense to send AC3 5.1 to a system that can’t use it. Many times the setting of the device makes all the difference.ĪFTV, for instance. Plex manipulates the volume very little and most of the time what is in the file is what is passed directly to the playback device. Also log files, without verbose logging turned on, also might be helpful to the folks here. My setup does not have any volume problems and I have Rokus, Fire TV, Shield TV and computers and those all have acceptable volume levels and all content, Plex and other, plays and the same level.ĭetails about exactly how you have things connected and how your content is encoded would probably help the folks here to help you. I suggest reexamining your setup and eliminating variables to try to isolate the problem to whatever is causing the issue. The vast majority of Plex users have little or no volume problems and the ones that do have problems have related the the range of volume not to the volume simply being low. Your statement the there are 100’s of threads about low volume may be true but I do not remember even one that was found to be related to Plex. The support you will get is directly proportional to the quality of the question and the amount of needed information provided.
