    the solution is Dynamic Range Compression. VLC player has it, but it needs to be configured first. One of the big reasons why I don’t use netflix/hulu/primevideo/whatever+

      From my other comment:

      Watch using windows 10 computer, right click on sound in task bar, go to “sounds”, click on “playback”, double click on your output, go to “enhancements” and enable “loudness equalization”

      It’s a MIRACLE. You can hear voices AND explosions don’t ruin your ears!

      It even works on YouTube and stuff. My partner and I will not watch stuff without it on. We have something else on our Linux box but that’s more fiddly and doesn’t do as good of a job (and I forgot what it’s called hahaha)

        This comment alone makes me understand why my 12-year-old reddit account was banned, it was so I could come here and find this comment with this instruction that will massively impact my life.
