When making videos from DVDs, I usually run the finished videos through VirtualDub once and increase the volume there by using this method: http://www.divx-digest.com/articles/normalize_avi.html Method #2

I've got the same problem as the OP, maxing out vol leaves the sound too quiet to be heard under ambient noise in urban environments such as public trasportation.

Just use the wiki-fied method for boosting mplayer volume that Benson linked to. I have mine set to
But maybe the setting they suggest works well/better.
Code:
af=volume=15.1:0

Allok video to ipod converter is such a simple app to increase the volume output. But then thanks for my greed, is there any one else that can boost the volume and edit the brightness/contrast at the same time?

A portable headphone amp might be the simplest solution. For example, a "cmoy" amp that is housed in an Altoids mint tin can be had on Ebay for very little. That way you can avoid problems caused by the software methods, if there are any. Like, having less control at lower volumes, losing the boost when the software updates, etc. Also, it can be a little harsh when you've got the volume turned way up and it's too loud for the next situation you listen in. Granted, those may be less hassle than lugging yet another piece of techokit.

Hi guys, I have problem when watching movies, especially using Mplayer and Canola. The sound is very soft, poorly to heard on train. Is there any way that I can increase the sound? Either by converting /editing the movies on PC or using plugins to boost the sound?
I'm using N800 diablo, Mplayer, file movies are *.avi just as on PC, and listening by ordinary iPod earphones. Mentioned that I can listen music finely but watching movies sucks.
Any tips to increase watching movies experience, put here also. Thanks guys !
Just flashed to diablo - volume is impossibly quiet again.
Will post here if I remember what to do.
[edit] now i'm getting some loud volume. no iddea what's going on.

Add a line:
af=volnorm
in file etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf,
Then it will be better!

If you decide to go the route of a pocket amp, this one is only $8 (with free shipping) and I've found it works well. (The good is that it's small and does seem to improve sound quality, not just loudness. The bad is that there is no Off switch, you turn it off by pulling out the headphone cord. And I think it may slowly drain the battery when supposedly off.)

I have found this batch file for increasing the sound volume on a whole directory of AVI movies great. I've used his second file, Avi_Gain_Regular.bat (with the 224kbps changed to 128), and the results have been excellent. (Thanks, Soopafresh, whoever you are!)
