[QUOTE="Snoopy87, post: 1209596, member: 128461"] So how did you configured this? I set Windows Speaker Volume to 50 of 100, because otherwise PCM is too loud. My AVR is set to -35dB. Everything is perfect. On some movies I have to set the AVR volume to -30dB on others to -40dB. That's a normal behaviour. This works for ANY audio signal no matter from which application (MediaPortal, WebBrowser, VLC, Windows Sounds, etc.) and it's the same volume for any source (Xbox One, Blu-ray Player, TV ARC and my HTPC). With RadioTime and WASAPI I now have to set the AVR volume to -55dB or -60dB (depends on the Internet Radio Channel). So you watched a movie with -30dB and than switch over to RadioTime to hear some Internet Radio and now you have to set the volume to -60dB. That's a difference of 30dB. Thats incredible! 10dB is a factor of 2! So it's incredible loud and has nothing to do with my AVR. It's WASAPI and nothing else! So the big question is why and how to adjust the incredible loud volume of WASAPI (or RadioTime, if it is using WASAPI wrong...?) [/QUOTE]
