Laptop louder?

tommy25 · 07-13-2007, 10:08 AM

Hi Guys

I have a macbookpro and normally the volume is pretty good but on the odd dvd it is dead quiet, i was wondering if anyone knew of any software which would allow me to play the films louder.

Thanks

i had a simular problem with my compaq presario 2100 after i reinstalled windows. it happened to me because i didnt have a driver installed.
the first thing i would try is to update the sound card drivers.

There is no problem with the laptop, i was just after some software which would allow louder playback.

Would the DVD's be pirated by any chance, because if they are, then they can be quieter. If they are retail versions bought online or from a store, it shouldn't be like that. If they're pirated, there's nothing you can do, but if they've been bought, its either a problem with the disk (check it in a DVD player), and if that works, check the sound drivers for the laptop are installed correctly and that they are activated. Check any external volume controls are turned up, and that everything else is to the maximum, or loud enough to hear.
