There's no way to compress the audio without re-encoding it. It works by increasing the volume of the quiet parts rather than decreasing the louder parts, so don't be alarmed if the volume gets louder, just turn the TV's volume down. There's a screenshot of how I've configured RockSteady, whether you want to try it with Potplayer or via ffdshow. You can drag the ffdshow audio filters with your mouse to change their order, as the Mixer filter needs to be before the Winamp filter. Just put the plugin somewhere and tell ffdshow's audio decoder where to find it, which you can only change by opening the audio decoder configuration via it's shortcut while no video is playing. If you want to try the ffdshow method, here's some screenshots and a link to the RockSteady plugin.
It works fine for XP but I couldn't tell you if it gets uglier to use on newer Windows. You can enable RAW audio in the list of codecs and it'll process the decoded audio. It also requires a DirectShow player such as MPC-HC.įFDShow doesn't need to be decoding the audio. You can't send DTS or AC3 directly for decoding by the receiver/TV as it can't be compressed. I do it with ffdshow and a Winamp plugin, but the Winamp plugin only supports stereo (miltucjannel audio will pass through uncompressed), so you have to downmix it with ffdshow first if it's multichannel (Potplayer no doubt has downmixing options too), and it has to be decoded by the PC. I'm pretty sure Potplayer also has that sort of normalisation built in, and the normalisation included with SMPlayer looks suspiciously like it works that way (I haven't tried it). That's how the normalisation built into MPC-HC and ffdshow works. Some players have a setting called "normalisation" that drops the volume when it gets loud and then slowly increases it again until there's another loud part, but I hate the sort of normalisation. That'll compress the audio and there'll be less difference between the soft and loud parts. The easiest option might be to check your TVs audio settings to see if it has a night mode. I wrote most of the stuff below before remembering about Potplayer, but it'll help explain using RockSteady if you'd like to try it anyway. I don't use Potplayer myself, but that's what I remember.
#The very best mp3 normalizer install
if you use Potplayer I'm pretty sure it borrowed audio filters from ffdshow so it has the ability to load Winamp plugins itself, and maybe other types of plugins, so you wouldn't need to install ffdshow, and I think it has some reasonable methods for compressing the audio built-in, although I prefer my RockSteady configuration. Edit: This will make sense after reading the rest of the post.
