Just want to air a BIG pet peeve

It seems latley the the sound on the TV gets real loud when a commerical comes on. I have to keep the remoye next to me. UP THEN DOWN. I am so sick of this. Anyone else find this also.

Sometimes it comes on so loud the dogs start barking.
Sorry I just needed to vent.

I actually hate when different channels (or commercials) are a lot louder than the show you have the volume set to. We keep the tv on at night (for a little light), and I always wake up to turn something down. I know many people have tv's that have the same volume no matter what channel you put it on. Well, I've heard of it being talked about ...don't know much about it.
I hate it when sound effects are way louder than the people talking....
Apparantly it is now illegal for the commercials to have increased volume in England. I wish the FCC would fix that here too.
Well sometime in the last 8 years that rule was reealed in the US
This is so annoying for us. When Beauford was a pup, he chewed up the dish remote and we had to buy a new one. For some reason we cant get it to turn up the volume either on the dish or the TV. We just cant get it programed right. So we have to get up to turn down the TV. A major ANNOYANCE!!!!! :evil: :evil:
commercials are a pain loud or soft :lol:
A good receiver can be set to auto level sounds so you don't get that blast. James created a setting on ours that does it. Depending on what you're watching though, I don't always like it on since it kind of smashes the sounds and you lose some of the peaks and lows.
hey! i always just thought it was my tv! lol....at least i know im not going crazy!
If it's a local company's advertisement, a note saying the excessive sound on their commercials is extremely annoying and has turned you away from ever patronizing their establishment. Mention the time and channel you got pissed so they know you really did experience the event.

Here all commercials get an immediate mute, political ads get a channel change.
Actually it is like that here in the UK too, the commercials are always much louder. And especially if the prog you are watching is older than a few years (which is very likely unless you are watching a soap) I guess the sound equipment was not so good before so the ads are naturally louder.
Yeah, it is like that in the UK too. Its so annoying.....Drives my cats mad too....It makes them jump when they are fast asleep !!!

I find the worst one for it is when I watch the WWE !! and always wondered why it was much louder than the UK channels.

Hasn't stopped them doing it though. The comecials (Adverts if you are from the UK :lol: ) used to be 20% lounder than the programme but I think they had to change it due to all the people complaining!
