some countries have this issue regulated, lucky them
Like the US. But it only applies to old school TV, not streaming services, and doesn’t even seem to be enforced well where it does apply
Let’s start a list of the countries with regulated commercial volumes.
Germany has had that for a couple of years. When that law was introduced, commercials really became quiter on some channels. Then the stations found out that no-one actually sues, so we’re back to square one.
Dialogue at the top.
Action at the bottom.
Can’t hear anything that is said but then the action makes you scramble for the remote.
Bad mix.
I have found that Netflix loves to set things to 5.1 surround over stereo which is a thing to check.
Doesn’t fix everything though *cough* Christopher Nolan *cough*
Can also be bad speaker setup/settings with a weaker middle speaker or that channel set to being quieter than the others.
You guys are still seeing commercials?
I haven’t seen a commercial in like… 15 years
The bottom panel should say “action/sound effects”.
People still sit in front the TV watching broadcasts while holding a remote control?
(Yes, they do, they’re generally over the age of 70)
Pirate all your shit. Problem solved.
During the show:
Explosions and musical scenes - +++++++++++++++++
Actual content and dialogue - +++++
Commericals 🔥🔥🔥
How old is this meme? Is that an ipod?
They were still selling click-wheel iPods just 10 years ago…
It’s about time for us to start scheduling colonoscopies…
Less space than a Nomad. No wireless. Lame.
This meme comes from The Simpsons. I think the episode is called “MyPods and Broomsticks”, where they parody Apple. The scene specifically is one of the Itchy and Scratchy episodes within the episode. Scratchy is listening to his MyPod and dancing akin to the old commercials when the iPod existed, and Itchy cranks up the volume so Scratchy’s head explodes.
It’s like some sort of bizzaro meme, made by a Gen Alpha teen who has lived a week in 1995 and has to deal with the hassle of TV commercials, but doesn’t know what an iPod is (which is the “remote” in this picture).
