|
 |
I bought 5.1 channel headphones and there's no volume control on it, so I guess it's using Window's sliders, and even when it's maxed, it's really not loud enough.
Any tricks to pump up the Windows volume bar ?
Much appreciated.

Note how he said he wanted boosted volume, not lower.

The VLC media player solved that problem for me. Movie sound that was inaudible on the Windows player, was loud and clear on the VLC.

You have a problem if it is not loud with windows sliders set to maximum.
If it is AC3 audio on a downloaded file then it's likely you need to tweak that filter.
You should also look into your sound cards settings. Is it even capable of 5.1 audio?
