DVD-AVI (autoGK) audio is too quiet

[trpltongue]

Hello all,

A friend of mine is ripping a couple of selected scenes from movies using dvdshrink and then recoding them to avi using autoGK. The plan is to have a bunch of short video clips along with a bunch of wma cd tracks play randomly on the big screen. The problem is that the audio on the ripped avi's is sooo much quieter than the CD audio. You have to turn the volume up pretty high to hear the avi dialogue and then when it jumps to cd audio the volume is blaringly loud.

Is there any way to adjust the avi volum from within autoGK or even normal GK so that we don't have this problem?

Thanks in advance,

Russell

I don't think that there's a way this can be done since it uses an encoder that's automated for the audio. However, since it doesn't mux the audio until the end, you can take the resulting MP3 and work with it when AutoGK is working with the video.

Use a package like Audacity to boost the volume up, and save it. Don't touch anything else incase it changes the timing and puts the file out of sync.

It's a crude method but it should work, unless someone else has a more elegant solution.

Thanks for the reply!

I'll give that a try and see if I can get it working.
