Low volume on DVD playback

[Scot R]

I’ve just bought a Compaq nx 6110 laptop and when playing a DVD the volume seams quite low especially the dialog even when turned right up, i have tried windows media player and Nero Show Time and checked all the volume setting i can find. dose anybody know of any setting that could be changed or am i just expecting to much from the small speakers? (Play audio CDs alot louder)

Every laptop is different. Mine has fairly low volume, but if your CDs play louder, then there's a couple of things to look at. In the software player, check the sound options. There may be some other setting available. I use PowerDVD and it has a few more options for sound. Also in 'Control Panel' > 'Sounds and Audio Devices', there's usually an 'Advanced' window with individual settings. Also under 'Audio' look at the' Sound Playback' device settings, usually some Advanced setup there also.

I’ve been in every advanced setting i can find and set them all to max,
I’ll keep looking
