JOFFRY CAN'T DO THAT BECAUSE YOU HAVE EXHAUSTED YOUR "CROCODILE TEARS" PACKAGE. YOU CAN UPGRADE YOUR SUBSCRIBTION TO "CRY ME A RIVER" FOR UNLIMITED TEARS.

Lovenstein is always awesome

Real talk for a sec:

If you're looking for a solution, then use Kodi. Open the context menu while playing a video, go to the audio settings, then adjust to your liking. (-20dB volume and 18dB volume amplification worked in my case, but you can tweak to your system).

If you're struggling with a noisy environment (I watch a lot of TV with my kids playing and running and screaming in the room), then get a Bluetooth speaker and put it near yourself. Now you're not battling to drown out other noise with more noise.

[–] WhiteOakBayou@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Bluetooth speakers have made tv watching so much easier for us. Putting a speaker on the table right in front of us or on the back of the couch or whatever close by cuts down on so much noise competition amongst the people in my house. I still have a larger soundsystem for if we are all watching something but with the bluetooth I don't have to hear Daniel Tiger.

I once read someone blaming directors/producers mixing movies with theaters or full-on perfectly-tuned surround setups in mind instead of the 2.0 TV speakers and earbuds most people actually use, and I don't know how true it actually is but it sure makes intuitive sense.

Then again, I still have to wear my ANC earbuds in the theater without them playing anything because the score and sound effects are so loud.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I have a perfectly tuned surround setup and they still sound shit. So many sound directors just suck at their jobs nowadays.

[–] HackerJoe@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Quite true in my experience. A 5.1 or 7.1 surround system with a good center speaker will make most issues go away.
Even just 3 speakers in front of you with a center one that is usually for voice should fix it (like some soundbars).

If you have only two but still want something better than the default I can recommend: https://www.fxsound.com/ formerly known as DFX. It's now free.

How does FxSound work?
Home stereo systems and PC’s are built with a compromise: keep hardware affordable at the cost of quality.
FxSound compensates for low quality hardware by targeting and processing sound’s timbre, volume, spatial balance, and dynamics.
What this means for you is clearer, louder, deeper, and balanced audio. Install our lightweight program, let it run quietly in the background, and enjoy your new audio experience.

I loved Tenet, but the movie is the most perfect example of this
