  • Can you provide examples for videos and MP3 files, that exhibit the described behaviour? Only use short excerpts or build some yourself, if you want to avoid large file transfers or copyright issues. Apr 10, 2015 at 14:47
  • Hi thanks for your reply. My internet is very slow. I am not able to upload. The same video works fine in windows. Apr 12, 2015 at 7:19

I run into this sometimes, where certain media plays softer or louder than other media. The simple fix I use is to open up the Sound Settings and set it to higher than 100% manually (you may have to click "Allow Louder than 100%" to do this, depending where you access the volume settings from). I find that when I push the volume louder than 100%, videos that are otherwise too quiet can be heard much better. If you do this simple fix, you may find that you'll have to turn it down again for your MP3's or it will get distorted/be too loud.

See below, I have where 100% is circled, and it's possible to go beyond it.
