Question on video4fuze software.

MP3 players Sansa Fuze
1

I used the video4fuze software to put some videos onto my fuze and it worked great with no problems at all.The video was nice and clean.But the volume was lower than the original video.All my converted videos were flv’s.Is there some setting to increase the volume of the video?

Thanks,

Just google for mencoder options to do that, and then add them to the mencoder commandline used by video4fuze, from the advanced>preferences dialog.

Alright,

I googled mencoder options a dozen times and they say a lot of things in there which i dont even know. :smileyvery-happy:IM going crazy .So can you please tell me which point i have to edit in order to get more output volume.And why are their 2 command lines?

Thanks,

SR

There 2 command line sbecause video4fuze connverts the videos using a 2-pass encoding.

Sincerely, i’m not an expert on mencoder, I just made a GUI for it :slight_smile: (well, more exactly, it’s a GUI to ewelot’s recommended conversion procedure in linux). I don’t know what mencoder options will solve the volume loss issue (if any), but I think ewelot or people in a mencoder forum or something like that would be more able to answer your question. Once you find the correct options/values for mencoder, you can just put them in both (if not otherwise stated) command lines, and it will work.

If this procedure does not seem easy and straightforward (it isn’t to me, at least), that’s why the command-line editing feature is in the “advanced” menu :wink:

Today I noticed this volume loss issue, and I would be happy too to find a solution, but, AFAIK, it’s a mencoder issue, and I have only noted it when converting from youtube flv’s.

Well, it took about 1 minute to figure this out by reading the manpage :wink:

Simply add the filter volume=15 to mencoders audio filter chain (option -af) in order to increase the volume by 15dB. The audio filter in the mencoder command line then looks like this:

mencoder ... -af resample=44100:0:1,format=s16le,volume=15 ...

For more info about the use of the volume filter please consult the manual.

Apologize for this late reply to your question, but I just returned from vacation.
