Volume difference between audio und video clip

I (using Storyline 360) have a problem with the video volume. When I import a video (mp4), it plays louder than if I imported the audio file of the video directly. The problem now is that the videos...

Hi Lauren,

thanks for your reply. I know that I can adjust the volume via the "Audio Editor". But this can't be the solution for my problem. I can explain why:

1) I have a big course (over 35 screens), so it's not a good solution to adjust all the audio files. And I will have more big courses in the future, so I really prefer a permanent solution.

2) Even if I adjust the volume, I can never do it so accurately that no differences are audible. I tried something similar at a course about a year ago, and I did a great job. 

So the real questions are:

  • What is SL doing when importing a video? What kind of conversion is taking place?
  • What is the requirement that SL will not adjust the volume of a video? Mabye along with the tool "handbrake" you recommended to me some time ago?

I really want to use SL for further elearnings but this type of issue have to be solved...

I'm locking forward to work with you Lauren (and your Team) on this case.
