getting max volume from AVI

[WarpEnterprises]

I'm looking for an easy way to get the max volume from an AVI,
in a way that can be automated (e.g. via VB).

Any ideas how to do this WITHOUT demuxing?

The purpose would be to store those values in a database and use it afterwards to play all file with the same volume (by adjusting the playback volume).

Even better would be a tool like MP3Gain which works at least on mp3-audio-AVIs, but I think that doesn't exist.

Can you pls tell it a little more in detail? what kind of function is this? (dll, CL,??)

i am sure you know ffdshow !

Install it and either by lauching "FFDShow-Audio filter configuration" or

C:\WINDOWS\system32\rundll32.exe ffdshow.ax,configureAudio

click on "Volume" and choose a max normalization of 300% , and in "Codecs" check the last "Uncompressed"

In this way every "sound" you listen will be normalized

I hope i have understud your question... :stupid: ...
