Setting audio volume

Hi,
I can't figure out how to set the volume level of the audio I have dragged into the opening screens. The volume is always way too loud when I put the DVD in. I want to be able to match the volume of the content to what is in the main pages and chapter screens.
Thanks,
Lori

You will need to change volumes in Soundtrack or other editor, DVD SP does not handle those changes...also if you encoded differently there can be volume shifts but it sounds like more than that...

XBR75X85OC audio volume setting from receiver extremely low

Equipment involved:Sony AV receiver STRDN1040, Sony Bluray player BDPBX510 and DISH Hopper receiver.Equipment currently configured per TV owners manual HD BRAVIA SYNC Basic connection. Volume is extremely low.

Frankly speaking, ThinkPad W510 speakers or/and it's Conexant sound chip/driver is mediocre. It seems that it is a design fault or Lenovo is trying to save that small amount of additional cost for each of the component so that they can earn more. I used an T400 loaner set before, the speaker and the Conexant SmartAudio was as great or better than my Dell Studio 15.
I am not sure what the heck, Lenovo Research & Development department is doing to make W510 sound mediocre. As an end-user and W510 a mobile workstation, I would also expect the speaker/sound chip to be better than T400.
I have contacted the Lenovo Service Center, they said the final version of the driver is under testing and has not been released to their support website. But I think the soft audio volume problem could never be resolved unless Lenovo would release another version of internal speaker, but not possible as a refreshed version of W-series is coming up next year. (eg. W520)
Problem/bug listed out for the latest version of W510 Audio Driver

Set "audio record volume" (not amplitude)

I can only use protools with a ipod attached as the "record volume" (destination for session files). any other powerbook uses it's own hard drive for this, but not mine. I've reinstalled pt7. no change
once I came on to a page where you could set up audio volumes, and I can;t seem to get back to it.
thanks anyone!

Let me answer my own question. Its a protools thing-not a mac thing, like I thought. so if anyone cares- in protools7, menu bar/window-scroll to "workspace", and select what your different drives can do, either record or playback. I don't know why pt has the default as playback only.

Audio volume low when computer wakes from sleep - os x yosemite

I've been having an issue ever since I upgraded to OS X Yosemite, where the audio volume coming out of my external speakers is extremely low after I wake my computer up from sleep. The only resolution I have found is restarting the computer. Once I do that, the audio volume is great. If I were to boot up my computer after it has been completely shut down, the audio volume is also great. The issue only occurs after sleep. Anyone else having a similar issue? Is there another fix besides restarting the computer?
Speakers: Bose Companion 2 Series II (these are wired, not bluetooth)
Computer: Mac Pro - late 2013 - running Yosemite

This is a BUG. It has been submitted to engineering many times - unfortunately Apple has not done anything about it.   We have 5 Mac Pros, all 5 do the same thing after updating to Yosemite.   The PRAM / SMC reset is useless - we even installed a fresh OS on one of the machines (a suggestion of the level 2 Apple tech) same problem.   Clearly this is a system level bug.   Only way to get it resolved is to keep pounding the bug report site with requests.     The squeaky wheel gets the oil.   The problem is 100% repeatable on the machines that exhibit the bug.
In the mean time set up an applescript with this command and it will reset the sound - do not include the brackets :
<do shell script "sudo killall coreaudiod" with administrator privileges>
Run it every time you wake from sleep and you won't have to deal with the problem ever again.
Pretty lame that Apple has not fixed it even though the problem appears to be pretty widespread.

Audio volume is always maximum at start

I upgraded to Mac OS X Lion from Mac OS X Snow Leopard.
Before the upgrade when I reboot Mac OS X the audio volume is at the same level I left before.
Now when Mac OS X Lion starts, the audio level is always at maximum.
I think this is a little bug of the new OS.
Is there anyone with the same problem?
Does anyone have solved it?
Thanks you all.

Non-Apple Keyboard: any way to control system audio volume?

I have a non-Apple Keyboard on my new Mini Lion 7.2.1
Is there any way to control system audio volume via the keyboard ?

Well. I can do this. But just because, on my Apple keyboard, there are the keys that do the job. There's a key to mute, and the keys to adjust low and high the sound. But keyboard shortcuts, I don't think exist. The aren't in keyboard shortcut in Keyboard panel, within System Preferences. The bottom line is that isn't a menu item in Finder for lower sound and higher sound. The only option would be an AppleScript that you save as an applet within Scripts menu (activated in Finder via Script Editor) and you invoke with a shortcut... Well, you can do it, if you open the script Set Output Volume in UI Elements Script folder within Scripts folder. Try it out!

How do I get 10.4.8 AUDIO VOLUME back?!

My daughters' iMac G3 is like a freakin' megaphone now after updating it to 10.4.9. Why did Apple have to mess with audio volume levels? It was FINE the way it was. Now, in 10.4.9, the lowest volume setting is around the 50%-65% mark it was in 10.4.8.
I've ready other complaints elsewhere, now just want a solution. She's had it for months and we know the volume it produced, now, like I said, it's a megaphone and she even says its too loud (she's four).
Help!

The max OS for a PowerPC processor Mac is Leopard OS 10.5.x. All higher OSs require a Mac with an Intel processor.
Here's the instructions if you have the discs.
Mac OS X: Changing or resetting an account password
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1274?viewlocale=en_US
Changing your administrator password
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh655.html
Here's one method to reset the password without the install disc:
1. boot computer and hold the "apple" key and the "s" key.
2. wait for terminal show
3. release keys
4. type without the quotes: "/sbin/mount -uaw"
5. press enter
6. type without the quotes: "rm /var/db/.applesetupdone
7. press enter
8. type without the quotes: "reboot"
9. press enter
This will let you create a new admin account when you reboot your computer.
Also, without the discs, look at Mac OS X Tip - No Password, No Root, No CD? No Problem.
http://www.macobserver.com/tip/2003/06/16.1.shtml
Here is a way to get around not knowing the admin password on Macs.
To reset your OS X password without an OS X CD you need to enter terminal and create a new admin account:
   1. Reboot
   2. Hold apple + s down after you hear the chime.
   3. When you get text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a brand new admin account (hitting return after each line):
          * mount -uw /
          * rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
          * shutdown -h now
   4. After rebooting you should have a brand new admin account. When you login as the new admin you can simply delete the old one and you’re good to go again!
You'll have to buy (for over $100) a Leopard retail install DVD to get back to Leopard.

Set audio on compressor using command line?

Anyone know how to supply the audio path using compressor on the command line?
Running compressor -help shows audio=/path/to/file but it's not too specific on how that looks in the actual command. I've tried every combination I can think of. Has anyone done this succussfully?
Thanks

When I try that format I don't get any response at the command line from compressor...it just exits. Here's my command:
compressor -clustername "Compressor" -batchname "test" -settingpath "/Volumes/theGrill/Resource_Library/Art_Anim/Presets/Compressor/Preview (H.264).setting" -asneededcopy -destinationpath "/Volumes/Scratch/temp/test/test.mov" -jobpath "/Volumes/Scratch/temp/test/Leadership_April_Update/" audio="/Volumes/Scratch/temp/test/Leadership_April_Update.wav"
The other formats I've tried include. Responses are what is returned in terminal.
-jobpath "/path/to/sourcevideo.mov",audio="/path/to/sourceaudio.aif"
     Response: Parameter error: Invalid Job path: /Volumes/Scratch/temp/test/Leadership_April_Update/,audio=/Volumes/Scratch/temp /test/Leadership_April_Update.wav
-jobpath "/path/to/sourcevideo.mov" -audio="/path/to/sourceaudio.aif"
     Response: None
-jobpath "/path/to/sourcevideo.mov" -audio "/path/to/sourceaudio.aif"
     Response: Invalid parameter: -audio
-jobpath "/path/to/sourcevideo.mov" -jobpath audio="/path/to/sourceaudio.aif"
     Response: Parameter error: Invalid Job path: audio=/Volumes/Scratch/temp/test/Leadership_April_Update.wav
-jobpath "file:///path/to/sourcevideo.mov?audio=file:///path/to/sourceaudio.aif"
     This submits, but the output doesn't have the audio.
Any other ideas?

Audio volume drops in FLV file after inserting into Captivate 4

The audio volume drops almost 50% in FLV files inserted into Captivate 4. Is there a solution for this problem?
Thank you.

Hi Sony,
That was the first thing I ever tried when I discovered the default setting for FLV and slide video (variables and advanced actions are my favorites, as you know perhaps). Perhaps I missed something, and did not try in CP 5.5 or after the latest patch on CP5.0, but this system variable seemed only to have effect on the normal audio clips, not on audio for video?

Reset audio volume

I'm not sure where to post this question, but here goes. Is it possible to reset the audio on my mac so that the sound volume of video clips and movies is raised? I regularly encounter video with audio volume that is too low, even though I have the volume level in System Preferences set to the maximum. I find the problem in DVDs, QT, and YouTube, etc.
Thanks, Caoim

Might be corrupted sound preferences ...
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following;
/Library/Preferences/Audio
Click Go then move both .plist files from the Audio folder to the Trash.
com.apple.audioDeviceSettings.pllist
com.apple.audio.SystemSettings.plist
Restart your Mac. See if that made a difference ...

Audio Volume

A lot of times I find the audio volume on the MBA to be too low. It's fine when I'm using earphones, but sometimes I don't want to do that, and I find it hard to hear things sometimes. Maybe I'm just old and I've heard too much loud music, but has anyone used any 3rd party software that helps with this situation, or found another solution? Yes, I have the setting up as high as it will go.

Hi Kenshane,
The MacBook Air uses a single, mono speaker on the right hand side of the keyboard (Shift key) area. As a result, the sound coming out of the unit is going to be pretty low. An external speaker kit, especially if you intend to use the unit for multimedia is recommended.

3D animation in iPhone application - audio volume drives a mouth morph?

Hello,
I created a series of 3D characters in LightWave 3D that I want to use in an iPhone application. Is there a way to use the audio volume to drive a morph? I want to set up a simple mouth-open/mouth-closed movement that is driven by the audio volume.
Thanks,
Tom

there's nothing really 'driving' the audio volume except the recording itself.
Since playback is assumed constant, one way to sense non-silence is to monitor/trap AudioQueueLevelMeterState...if that is active/peaked/bouncing, then assume mouth = opened/moving.

Low audio volume in DVD SP

I've been experiencing low audio volume with burned DVDs in DVD SP 4.
The audio volume is fine in FCP, and also in the self-contained exported QT file.
But once imported into DVD SP and burned to a DVD, the volume is almost cut in half on multiple projects. The DVD's are short (< 30 minutes) so the audio is left as an AIFF file rather than converting it to an .ac3 with Compressor.
I don't see any way to control the volume in DVD SP.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Richard<br>

There's no way to control volume in DVDSP.
I had the same problem, but I had an ac3 file through Compressor. And there was this feature in it called "dialog normalization" that I had to turn off (setting it at -31dB), and my levels were good.
If you can't solve your problem with AIFF, maybe try ac3, and see if it suits you.
