For a few weeks after a switch back and forth twice of motherboards, VLC 1.0.1 was playing videos and some music at higher volume than Zoom Player 6 or 7RC. Then after some uninstalls/reinstalls of Realtek driver and players, the situation reversed a bit and is as follows:
- ZP7 plays much louder than VLC with AC3 audio
- VLC is a fair amount louder with MPEG audio (MP3)
- MPEG audio and WMA2 are about the same across players
What should I be looking at to even them up, at least with VLC and AC3?
