Low audio levels when ripping DVD's - HELP!!

[jonathanphang]

When i'm ripping GladiatorDVD, then using DVD2AVI, when i use TMPG Encoder to make a small test clip, i get the audio levels way low. I think think there must be a simple answer to this but i cant seem to find the option to up the recording level.

Any help appreciated!!

Make sure whilst using DVD2AVI that

- you have selected the correct audio track number and audio format.
- you have checked either high or ultra high in the 48-44.1Khz setting

and see if your nomalization is checked and slide the volume level to a higher position.

This is normal.
5Channels are downgraded to 2Channels.

I do it like this. When I got the AVI, I enlarge the volume of the audio (converted to 44.1kHz) with at least 3Db.

unless the audio is so low you can't overcome it by turning the volume higher...then try normalizing (dvd2avi->audio->normalization->dynamic)...if that doesn't help, try down sampling (dvd2avi->audio->48->44.1KHz->quality)
