audio / loudness / silverlight

thanks for the great videos, but:

can you please do a better job with the audio quality, i.e. the loudness, e.g. by using a compressor?

even with the volume turned up to maximum the voices are barely understandable.

thank you,

edit:

I downloaded the wma version of an interview and surprisingly it appeared to be louder than what i remembered, and in fact perfectly loud enough. Same is true for the wmv.

As it turns out it was the silverlight version that imho is too quiet (on my system).

I had all available volume controls to 100% for comparison, and the SL version appears to be significantly quieter than the other versions mentioned. But maybe I have some SL specific settings wrong, which I don't know where to set.

Sorry for posting without looking into my problem more thoroughly. I will simply consume the wmv version next time which solves my problem.

UPDATE:

Here the silverlight volume slider is at 100% by default, but the actual volume set is noticably lower than 100%.

Touching the slider, its graphical representation does not change, whereas the accociated value changes, i.e. makes it louder than befor.

This is reproducable atleast for http://channel9.msdn.com/posts/mtaulty/Prism--Silverlight-Part-1-Taking-Sketched-Code-Towards-Unity/.

So I believe the C9 SL video player application's initial graphical representation is wrong.

thank you,
