Carol Steele Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 After I have created DVD's in Video Builder, the volume at playback is roughly double what everything else plays back - so it would be nice to have a volume slider either built into P2Exe or Video Builder itself.

The sound level on your DVD should be the same as when you run a preview or make an .exe file. The level may be being altered by how you are sourcing the music, by ripping from a CD perhaps, depending on the program you are using to copy the sound, or maybe the level on the CD is very loud.If you are using a sound editing program like Audacity or Goldwave, you can alter the sound level to whatever you want. I am not familiar with Audacity as I use Goldwave, but is should be a simple matter to reduce the level. You may find the level controls calibrated in dB (decibel) steps; as a starting point reduce the level by 6 dB which will halve the apparent volume.Colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A volume control with the P2Exe program itself would be the ideal answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
