Exclamation Ipod Volume

Hi all

Is there anyway to increase the volume on an ipod as when I play it through my TV via AV in....even at the highest setting on the ipod I need the TV turned up to 75% to get a good level.

Re: Ipod Volume

How are you connection the Ipod to the TV?

If you have one of the Mini Docks and are going through the Line Out to the AVIn on the Telly, then, no. The volume is fixed.

If you are going from the iPod headphone jack and the volume on the iPod is on maximum, then you will need to install hacked software on the iPod to make it louder. The UK iPod has software to limit the maximum volume, which the US iPod doesn't.

Re: Ipod Volume

Then get a dock, that will increase the volume.

Is this the dock which comes with the Ipod for downloading from the PC. If so what is the connection set up to the TV. Is it just a case of connecting the lead I am using as in post three from the dock to the TV ? Sorry I am at work and the dock is a home so I can not check

Re: Ipod Volume

Should be. There's a line out socket at the rear of the dock.

Exactly the same 3.5 mm connection that the headphone socket uses.

Re: Ipod Volume

It should, the output on those is a standard RCA output. If it does not then a setting on your TV may be adrift, for example on mine you have volume normalisation on the AV inputs so if you have a loud STB and a normal TV and quiet DVD you can adjust the gain on each so the TV volume does not need adjusting when you switch sources.
