[mythtv-users] Sound track overwhelmingly the dialog (HD sound)

[Scott Pleavin]

I had the same problem on my Windows machine playing Letters from Iwo 
Jima DVD. The dialog was over whelmed by the music using VLC and Media 
center, when I switched to WinDVD all was fine. I was only using stereo 
speakers. Seemed to be a codec issue.
