Why even get into media if you can't get the best quality encodes?

It really is a problem with yify specifically, isn't it? Usually I don't have OPs problem but with yify shit it's a constant struggle to keep dialogue audible while not blowing my eardrums out whenever something happens.
>>69100461
No
Been like this since forever.
that all the mileage im getting out of this thread then?
This is why I have subtitles on pretty much all the time.
Its worse when you watch it on TV. They turn the audio on the movie down and the commercials get knoced up to 11.

im a piratefag, not always an option
is it really hard to balance audio properly?
or if it's a Karl/Ricky Gervais video, just don't scream when you know Karl mumbles most of the time?

>DO YOU STRUGGLE TO MAKE EGGS? DO YOU WANT A BETTER WAY?
Seriously why the fuck are commercials so damn fucking loud, just makes me end up muting them anyway
>>69102397
i remember reading that they are actually allowed to be quite loud, to an extent. If they seem over the top loud you can report them to the watchdog or whatever the fuck its called. But same here, i just mute them out of spite. If they were reasonable in volume i wouldn't so their loss.

>>69100369
That's called dynamic range and if you weren't a pleb yoy would enjoy it
>>69102397
Commercials are allowed to be as loud as the loudest part of program they follow. So if 1 sound byte was incredibly loud they technically are able to just as loud.

fucking TV producers started equipping their TVs with optional automatic audio level control to counter this moronic "release DvDs mixed like the cinema version" trend.
I dont fucking get it.

stop using a shitty media player that doesn't normalize the audio properly
