Why are the people asking for this (volume amplification) to be implemented for music sources as well, constantly ignored? I can't use any music add-ons (radio...) in the evening because of this.
Makes you wonder why this hasn't been done way back. It's not possible via dsp yet.

They're not being ignored. The music player is very different from the video player. Any fix/addition requires a non-trivial amount of work. Very few people even understands enough of how Kodi works to do this.
You make me wonder if critical thinking is a lost art.

Which I presume is still a non-trivial amount of work. Otherwise it would have been added by now.

I'm not talking about myself. I don't know how to program, nor do I ever wish to know. Save your childish insults. It's still a non-trivial effort or else it would have happened by now.

Oh, I'm sorry, I must have missed the PR?
If I ever were to say to a user "This would be easy to add", knowing full well that a dev specifically said that, you would yell at me all the same. You are only looking for an excuse to try and dismiss me in public. You are going out of your way to go into threads I am already involved in to start fights. That's really pathetic.

I read the thread, this issue was raised two or three times and never spawned any response. Made me wonder why, as it seems (to me) like an nontrivial feature.
No reason to fight over this

In opensource projects without paid members, things are not prioritized via end user value, business value, whatever criteria. It is all about attracting at least one developer to implement something. Personal interest of a spare time developer can really very differ from professional project demands. ;-)
I for myself implement the things first for which I see value for myself, family, friends, because I do not have enough spare time to implement more. Not nice, but this is the way it works.

Absolutely, as I said: it's all about *attracting* a developer. ;-)

I too would really love a modification or plugin for the video player that limits the dynamic audio range so that I can hear the dialog and not have to jump for the remote to turn down the REALLY LOUD MUSIC AND EXPLOSIONS.
So, if someone was willing to develop this, how much are we really talking about money-wise? It seems like there are enough interested people interested to fund this.
