volume problems

[stampy69]

hey guys just reading a few posts and rtying to work why my volume for videobox is so much lower then media player.

whats happening is i have added custom shutdown and start up sounds to my comp and i've set the juke to be a perfect level.........however when i shut down the .wav file that plays is so loud people actually jump out their chairs

I noticed someone had fixed this issue by using the JBP tool but unfortunately i dont have an internet connection so the tool dosent open for me (just pauses at downloading update screen)

Does it have anything to do with the volume setting in media player?? figured vbx uses media player visualisations so maybe it uses the volume settings too?!

vbx has its own volume ctrl,your shutdown sounds volume is controld by windows volume control is nothing to do with media playr
open windows mixer and change shudown sounds vol there

yeah, bit unsure about changing the shutdown sounds volume though.....when you say windows mixer i assume you mean the main volume controls, on there i have the 2 options 1: vcolume control 2: wave........obviosuly the main volume control effects everything so is it the wave volume i need to turn down?? I always thought the wave volume affected the mastwer volume too

heres another question for ya's........dow anyone know of a good program can change the volume level of all mp3's at once.

something like filename fixer, but auto volume fixer

I'm having issues with tracks being louder then others sometimes.

especially my karaoke tracks

i use mp3gain which is freeware i set mine at 93dbs theres also breakaway audio wich just runs in the background and keeps all your mp3s at the same vol level plus it gives your mp3s a nice hifi quality you can download a trial on this one
