    The media app Kodi can be configured to equalize sound so that it stays at a level volume. Not officially documented, found the method on a forum somewhere.

     

    There is an official addon that might do the trick called "Audio Profiles" which can be found in the Kodi Repository - see here.

     

    It can save up to ten different profiles that include the settings from System/Audio, System/Display (optional), Player/Videos (optional), and the Kodi volume, among other things.

    Article by Team Kodi

     

    It's time! We are very pleased to present the latest and greatest release of Kodi, v21.0 "Omega".

    With this release we have seen over 3,750 commits since v20.0 "Nexus" was available to the world on January 15th, 2023. As always, this has been a huge effort from many contributors, testers and supporters. Thanks go out to our team members, plus everyone in our community who sent in a pull request, tested and gave feedback, or provided support to users on the forum. We always appreciate your contribution to making Kodi better.

    Let's review some of the changes you can expect:

    Major Features

    FFmpeg 6

    Kodi relies significantly on FFmpeg to do a lot of heavy lifting for us. Many developers have contributed to upgrading the project to make use of the newer FFmpeg releases over the past 15 months, initially starting with targeting FFmpeg 5, but later updating to FFmpeg 6. We are always greatly appreciative of the work of all of the Open Source software projects that we rely on to bring you Kodi.

    DolbyVision On-the-Fly Profile Conversion

    For our Android users, a fantastic contribution from quietvoid allows users to convert some less well-supported DV profile types to more well-supported profiles.

    macOS Now Uses "Native" Windowing

    Another change that has been years in the making. This was started by some amazing developers many years ago, and we have now been able to finally remove the last remnants of SDL library usage in Kodi. We now use native implementations for window displays on the Apple macOS platform.

    A New Platform: webOS

    A new platform can now run Kodi natively: a port to LG webOS TVs has been worked out by some amazing developers who have reverse engineered huge amounts of the webOS media pipelines. One of our newest team members, sundermann, has helped shepherd our newest supported platform, to extend the reach of Kodi to even more devices.

    In-game Player Viewer

    Controller configuration for games gets a little better in v21: a window has been added in-game to view which game port each player's controller is currently connected to.

    Behind the Scenes

    A large majority of changes are "under the hood" and invisible to users but improve the stability, performance, and safety of Kodi: API changes have been made to evolve Python and binary add-ons and bring new skinning features; there are updates to Kodi dependencies on most if not all Kodi platforms; fixes from regular use of code static-analysis tools, database migration fixes for a smoother update ... and lots more.

    There are too many individual changes to detail everything. If you would like to know more, please look back through the Omega Alpha to RC2 release announcements and review the GitHub changelog here.

    Time doesn't stand still, and we have already branched Kodi v22 "P*" for development. Thank you again for your continued support as we continue to make Kodi great!

    Racing Driver Arrested as Police Target Thailand’s Largest & Oldest Torrent Site

    in Audio Visual AV

    Posted

    On Monday, anti-piracy coalition ACE announced the shutdown of SiamBit, an 18-year-old torrent site said to have as many as 100,000 paying members, mostly from Thailand.

     

    While those details are unusual, the bigger picture is quite extraordinary.

     

    Four people arrested on suspicion of running the site include the suspected ringleader, a professional racing driver in his late thirties.

     

    Events show how an arrest in January triggered a domino effect leading right to his door.

    now ... I just remembered ... I tried to download the NAB app to my OppoA83 from Play Store and it say's device incompatible ...   so there's a slight problem ...  haha 😕

     

    I use the NAB app on my Samsung S21 Ultra without any issues, but I prefer to use the Internet Banking service on my PC.

     

    Bigger screen and a proper keyboard... :cool:
