[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1215270, member: 141969"] In the UK, the HD TV channels have the capability to transmit multi-channel sound, and this occurs for a small number of programmes (typically blockbuster movies, prestige drama productions, "The Simpsons" on Channel 4). These programmes suffer with the same problem of inaudible dialogue, so using appropriate mix-down settings would provide a cure for both DVD and HD TV. In "MP Config", click: "Codecs and Renderer" (left side menu) > "DVD Discs/Images Codecs" tab > spanner icon for "LAV Audio Decoder" > "Mixing" tab, and then: Select "Enable Mixing". Select "Stereo". Set "Center Mix Level" to 0.8. Set "Surround Mix Level" to 0.6. Set "LFE Mix Level" to 0.0. These settings are a starting point; obviously you can change the values to suit your own preferences. The tabs for other devices also have these settings, but in fact they appear to be the same settings (so changing them on one tab changes them on all tabs). -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
