Hi I would like to suggest an audio boost feature as some movies or shows have a low volume Sound booster that allows the user to turn up the volume above 100% … “for the pc/Mac plex App version” Like how it is available with VLC player or other players BR ---

Do you experience those low-volume situations with multi-channel audio that is down mixed to stereo for playback on your Mac/PC? If so… you could try disabling `Settings` \> `Plex for Windows/Mac` \> `Player` \> `Normalize Multi-channel Audio` That feature reduces the volume to avoid clipping when converting from multi-channel audio formats. ---

Thanks for the reply Already disabled Sir Some titles come with really low volume depends on the source of the file That’s why it would be great to have a feature like the VLC player 100%+ volume BR ---

A request for the same feature exists already, and it has more votes. > [@Add support for dynamic range compression](https://forums.plex.tv/t/add-support-for-dynamic-range-compression/21701/1): > > As someone who watches movies with two small children sleeping in the next room, this would be a godsend. It’s particularly evident when watching 5.0 movies downmixed to 2.0. Low volume parts such as talking are barely audible whereas loud parts such as explosions and gunfire are deafening. Adding customizable dynamic range compression would help. Something like this (VLC) would be awesome: [http://imgur.com/C8lNK](http://imgur.com/C8lNK) Cheers, Rickard Therefore this one is closed, to prevent spreading the votes across several threads, even though they vote for the same (or at least very similar thing).
