no normalize but vlc audio setting please

[fenomeno83]

normalize default option in audio is bad!with same audio files volume is variable(up and down!!).many people said this to me!the best setting for me are the default in vlc (please see and hear these)

It is not a bug but just a default setting for normal use. You can simply turn it off. (shfit+f2)

[fenomeno83]

why don't use vlc default setting?its settings don't have these problems as normalize option!

[z]

Are you serious? Why are you mentioning the setting of vlc???

Is it so difficult to turn off the option? The default setting is for normal users in our nation.

fenomeno83, provide the problematic samples and request a fix/improvement in the suggestion thread.

VLC normalizer is the work of VLC development team. It wouldnt be appropriate to "implement or use" it.

What he is talking about is for the performance of the normalizer?
If then, try switching to other type of normalizers in preferences.
The default one is mostly tweaked for mp3 encodings.

PS. There is a volume booster especially for ac3/dts.

VLC as default doesn't use volume normalize but a better method to get a better audio quality.VLC default setting works correctly with all audio.Try to play a multimedia file with vlc(it is better from "Normalize=OFF" and it is better from "Normalize=ON" because haven't problems).
ps:for a normal use for me is better put "Normalize=OFF)in default settings of KMP

a better method to get a better audio quality.

I just can't understand what you are talking about. VLC does not process audio by default. As I said, if you do not like normalizer, isn't it enough to turn it off? What's the point in your insistence?

Ehm... I suppose to have "understood". :p
In my humble opinion the question is not: better, nation or valid default settings.
The question is: in order which use?
Audio or rather Video?
Both, obviously. But the first time that you hear your first MP3, AudioCD or other audio media on KMP (with Normalizer by default, and you don't know this own feature) you remain dazed and dizzy... you get "a little" time for understand, then you go to Preferences... there you get another "little" time to find "that" feature and finally you disable it.
If you start with a DVD(Cinema)Movie, for example, the "scene" (audio "scene", always with Normalizer by default) is dramatically different instead: what that comes out of speakers is wonderful...! :cool:

Effectively it is not an enormous effort to push "Shift+F2", but... you would have also to know it before! :)


P. S.: I said the same thing some time ago in my first one post. :eek:

After all the issue remains only a project choice and KMP remains a great (greatest, perhaps - IMHO) player.

[fenomeno83]

vlc processes audio by default but doesn't use normalize.try the difference between a song played by vlc and played by kmp(with NORMALIZE=OFF).Default setting of VLC are similar to NORMALIZE=ON of Kmp,but don't have those problems(sometimes with normalize audio scrash)

PS:Kmp is the best player,better than VLC

Perhaps I will be a rare beast :eek: (seasoned purist-audiophlile dude?), but generally I appreciate none type of audio process effect on audio media (then I like so much maximize and optimize straight audio quality by every possible means).
(High quality) MP3's are very useful for my portable player. :cool:
I apologize for my previous possible off-topic.

It is mainly because of the different sources to be played frequently among us.

DVD sources comprised of ac3/dts and recent audio formats such as ogg/aac including lossless audio have a more wide dynamic range which cause the constant changing of volume. By the way, KMP had been originally designed for a normal divx playback long before.

If you are watching DVD, movie or audio files having a wide dynamic range, it is highly recommended to turn off the normalizer. When I'm talking about the normalizer, these kind of situations are not considered at all.

The best solution would be to include the procedure of configuration wizard during an installation. (I don't agree to the thought that normalizer should be disabled by default.)

Thanks for your opinions.
