Extremely soft volume for DVD's

The volume for my DVD's are extremely low. I've maxed out the main volume, and the DVD player's volume, and i still can hardly hear. I've tried three different DVD player programs, but they all were quiet at their max volume. Is there any other way I can push up the volume? New and old drivers act just the same. Anything else that isn't running off my DVD can go at much higher volume.

thanks

    If you are using PowerDVD then go into the configuration of PowerDVD> audio> advanced> miscellaneous and under dynamic range compression choose "noisy environment experience boosted sound".

    given how the search feature works here, it would be a pain to find and I'm not sure the post was accurate.  just something I remember someone mentioning.

    Nemesis,

    Perhaps one of these?

    click me

    Find Dilbatt's post (the 9th message) where he gives a link to a Microsoft dvd driver update which is supposed to increase the volume.



    This is another thread with a link to a Dell patch:

    click me

    I had saved these links from a while back ... don't know if the patches work.

    Jim
