In another post someone stated to go to full screen mode, then click on your username then under the Settings menu go to > Audio > “Normalize Downmixed Volume”
But for me this doesn’t exist (I have a newer version perhaps?)
Under Settings I only have:
General
Remote Access
Agents
Library
Plugins
Network
Transcoder
Languages
DLNA
Scheduled Tasks
Extras
There is no Audio option that I can see. All I want to do is to be able to hear what I’m playing.
Windows laptop?
They sometimes have already an option in their sound driver software to amplify the output.
It may look like this in the properties of the audio driver:
If all else fails, use this: (works only in full screen mode, unfortunately)
You might wanna disable this for listening to music, though.
Otherwise you may get an effect that older ppl may know from the automatic recording levelling of cheap tape decks…
New kid here, a question to add to this discussion.
I have Plex media server on Synology NAS and use different machines to use plex media player .
NAS->Intel NUC->avr yamaha rx-v2067 via hdmi and after that hdmi to tv.
While using plex player over lenovo 5400 laptop and roku express sound was good and strong.
Since I use player on NUC sound is more silenced and have to volume up receiver significantly.
When use movie directly on NUC by windos media player sounds is normal and strong.
With a new PMP installation, HDMI-passthrough is not enabled by default.
Set PMP into TV mode, then pick your user avatar, Settings, Audio, output type=HDMI
Then tick all the sound formats below which your AVR can decode.
When you are on this screen, go right with your cursor key.
Onto ‘Device’
Press Enter
Select your HDMI port with the cursor keys and confirm the selection with Enter
Then go up to ‘Device Type’, press Enter on it.
Select HDMI with the cursor keys and confirm the selection with Enter.
