VIP211 audio

[GDH12]

I have a VIP211 in my bedroom and at night have the volume on the tv down to 1. It is still really loud. Too loud for one person to watch tv and the other to sleep.

Does anyone know if there is a way to lower the volume within the 211.

Thanks..

The receiver does not control the volume on your TV.

I assume you have your dish remote programmed to operate your TV. When using the volume adjustment on your remote control you are actually adjusting your television sets' volume.

My TV has volume step settings from 0 to 75. Under 10, I cannot hear it at all. I usually have it set in the 25 to 35 range except around 60 when listening to loud music and I am hooked up with 5.1 surround. I also have a Toshiba CRT-HDTV w/ ViP211.

I have been watching these forums for a long time and never heard that problem before.

If your TV has an output for headphones, you may want to use that to solve your problem.

I understand this. The cable box nor the Directv receiver put out audio as loud as this. The tv is on 1. I used to listen to it on 12-20 with the Moxi box from Charter. The audio out is just 10 times louder with the 211.

Get a wireless headphone, it works well.
