I have the pioneer avic z1 and when i put in my dvd mp3 cd that i made. The audio volume is so much lower than a regular cd or mp3 cd. I have to turn the volume up more than double to hear it good somewhat. What do I need to do? Why are dvd cds need to turn up the volume so much more? I know its not the head unit because it is the samething that happened in my other dvd indash. Why is dvd audio so low in volume?

 

More than likely it has to do with the burning software. There may be seperate adjustments for CD vs. DVD. Check the settings.

 

on my head unit or or software? im using audio dvd creator. i couldnt find any other software that converts mp3s to play on a dvd cd.

 

The CD burner software. What software are you using?

 

audio dvd creator, but nm i adjusted my head unit and it plays louder now with the dvd in it. i tweaked it, sounds better.

 

So does the Z1 have different gains or something?

 

i guess i went to audio settings adjusted the db source gain to +4, which was from 0 and then for sound i did the dynamic theater, it was off before and when i did this the sound really came out and louder, also has studio but that wasnt as loud.
