Hi,
the last couple of nights I have been trying to watch various films on CH5 HD and have ended up switching to the SD version. The problem is that the dialogue volume is so low that I have to turn up my TV volume to over half way to hear it. Then there is an excruciating increase in volume for film sound effects.

This doesn't seem to happen on other HD channels anywhere near as much, apart from the Adverts, which are louder on all channels (particularly SKY1,2,3 SD or HD).

My TV is a Panasonic Plasma connected via HDMI to a V+ box. I have sound ambience on (TV) and HDMI override off (V+)

I have to watch with finger poised above mute, not exactly a relaxing experience

Is it my settings or is it the channel ?
