Someone really needs to build some sort of logarithmic volume filter into linux... a way to keep the normal volume scenes loud enough to hear but reduce the volume on the loud scenes. This way you can listen to a movie in the middle of the night and not annoy your neighbors and not need to keep lowering it everytime an action scene hits.... how is this not a thing already!
@Pantangelini I meant to say, why doesnt it exist in linux.. it should be part of the advancec volume screen (or atleast some plugin for it)
@freemo @Pantangelini looks like this is what you want https://github.com/wwmm/easyeffects
@freemo try drc or
Dynamic range compressor. Also seen auto-leveler on some video apps.
It's crazy simple, so it should exist.
