Ricardo, first of all, I'm using a high deff television for my sound output,
via h d m i on my mac mini, so I don't have the option of turning up or down
the volume through OSX, but yes, the volume is turned up quite considerably,
and yes, the volume in Itunes is up 100%. That was kind of the entire point
that I was trying to make. It's up all the way in Itunes, yet, it's also
all the way up with command up arrow in vlc, yet, in vlc it's way loads
louder when cranked up all the way to 100%. Isn't! that bizarre?
and yes, before you ask, my mixer is turned up both on the channel input,
and the master fader, and my meters are showing a very appropriate signal
level.
Chris.

Hi,
is iTunes volume turned up as well as system volume? iTunes volume can be
adjusted by command up and down arrow.

OK, I'm quite an advanced Mac user, having had my macbook for now just
over 2 years, plus playing with mac systems long before that, plus having
my mac mini now for just over 3 months, and this month giving my mother a
mac mini for her birthday, so yeah... that should be saying something,
but, I confess guilty as charged, this is driving me nuts! I can't faddum
this at all! So here's the situation I'm facing. I have an MP4 video
file of Rescue 9 1 1 which I downloaded. due to legality reasons, I'm not
gonna reveal from where, but the bottom line is, if I play the file in
VLC, I can crank the level way up and get it to almost a comfortable
level, but if I bring up the video on either ITunes, Quicktime, Quicklook,
or my Apple TV 3rd generation and try playing it, the picture quality is
perfectly fine, but the audio level is extremely! and I do mean,
extremely! quiet! Even turning off Itune's audio enhancer isn't helping.
No, I do not have sound check enabled. It's totally weird! as I can crank
it way up in vlc, and it sounds great! but if I put it through Itunes,
even turned all the way up, it's only about literally! 35 to 40 percent as
loud as it was in VLC. This is totally! crazy! I can't even for the
remote life a me! put any logic together of why on earth it's doing this!
I suppose I could knock the thing into ProTools, and pop that level on the
audio side of things up a bit, but that still! doesn't really resolve the
problem in a whole. Frankly, this shouldn't be happening in general, I
wouldn't think.
