Reply to comment by theyusedthelamppost in Commercial TV is too loud and annoying. I don’t miss it. by Ok_Marionberry_9932

Just turn on a compressor instead of micromanaging the volume. We solved this problem over 70 years ago. Might be called "night mode" or "dynamic range" or "adaptive volume" or "normalization" on your TV.

Plus one for compression. Most sophisticated televisions offer it via Menu; if you use components for audio delivery, a standalone compressor smooths out all those jarring inequalities in sound.

BBC has always been a offender: every scene requires audio adjustment.
