I recently set up my MPEG-4 Recorder 2 and the audio on my video files is way too quiet on my PSP even with the volume at max and headphones - it is still very hard to hear (particuarly on a NYC subway). I have checked the cabling - Any suggestions?

Thank you

The volume on the PSP is a known issue, you might be able to find a pre-amp to boost the volume on the PSP.

Thanks for the reply, I really understand the PSP volume being a known problem, but I mean its really, really quiet. I cant imagine everyone else is really having a productive experience with this unit and the PSP if this is the outputted volume.

Assuming the PSP has a standard headphone jack (I don't have a PSP), you could get a Boostaroo as a workaround. They are a small, portable, battery-powered amplifier. Although you will have to spend a little money, the device is well-liked and has many possible uses.

Check your audio and system settings. The location may vary on different versions of the PSP firmware. Turn off AVLS. This is the volume limitation of the PSP. The option to remove this is available on some versions of PSP firmware. If not available, a pre-amp would be the next best option. If you were able to to raise the recording volume with a firmware update, which we are probably not, your recording could then sound distorted on the device that you use to play back the file.

Neo has a good idea. I have heard of people doing that same thing with the PSP before.

You may also want to see what updates are available for your PSP. Maybe this way, you can gain the option to turn off the AVLS.

The audio is far to low without the earplugs, I hooked up a cheap RadioShack amp I had collecting dust between the audio out (from VCR ) to the audio in (Neurous) The audio output on the PSP now has to be turned down it is so loud.....Just had to add this is one terrific recorder if you want video playing on your PSP no more time consuming conversions, definitely worth the money.
