Hello,
I often encounter the problem that the voices are not loud enough for me to understand whith all the surround effects going on...
Do you know if it is possible to increase the volume of the center channel in XBMC if you downmix to stereo?
If not, will this be possible in v13?
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
chancenvergeber

Not possible in v13 either. Why don't you just use the channel balance controls of your AVR?

Gotham does a lot of these things a bit more sensible, so it might just be better anyway. Try it!

ONLY volume control.
In the living room I have an AVR, but in another room there is just a stereo system and I am not going upgrade it in the near future.
If I used a separate media player, I would just configure the codec settings...but that's not possible in XBMC..

No, it's pretty new.
I don't like these knobs. I usually use it for music only and I want to listen to the music like it was meant to be by the sound engineer...these knobs just make it sound wrong.

I enable the tone defeat on my analogue stereo amps as I follow the same ideal,though when listening to unmastered boolegs there could be allsorts of frequencies playing havok.
To get around it I ebayed a vintage analogue equalizer and hooked it up via the tape loops,when Im playing cds or flac files I bypass the loop,for raw recordings its enabled and I can control the mix,
Its a roundabout way and I dont know what equipment your using but it works for me.
