Sound on DTS but Stereo very low - shortyjaay - 2008-12-12

Hi everyone first time posting to the forums.
First off Thanks for all the great work on XBMC since installing it on my computer i have already bought a new surround sound system and 50 inch plasma because of how well it works.

My issue is this. I am running the atlantis build of XBMC and everything worked fine for about 3 weeks. Then i got a new TV and its still hooked up the same as the old one with Dvi to HDMI to the reciever and optical out to the reciever to from the PC.

I can play movies fine and they have the DTS logo pop up on the Reciever, but when i play my mp3s or anything else in stereo i can hear it but the volume is really low.

Strange thing is if i leave xbmc, windows plays everything fineHuh
I have searched the forums and tried changing the settings but still no luck.
Very confused at this point.....Rolleyes

Yup that was it. Went in the settings when playing a movie and my db was like negative 50 moved it to 0 and now everything is fine. Funny wonder how that happend. Thanks for the quick reply and again KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK !!!!!Big Grin
