Question Low volume during movies missing loudness equilization Windows 10

[austay666]

I have a HP elitebook 840 G6 laptop. I am having problems with low volume specifically watching movies. Even the volume is lower than i would like, i can listen to music just fine. In movies, the soundtracks seem to be high volume but when someone talks, just feels like they are whispering.

I believe I had this problem before on a different system and enabled loudness equilizer to resolve the issue. However on this laptop, I do not get the option. There is no enhancement tab anywhere.

I looked online and saw people say to update the driver and it should appear but its not working for me.I have updated multiple times and still nothing. My current driver I have is realtek 6.0.9626.1.

I had a similar issue when my audio was set to 5.1 and i only had a pair of stereo speakers plugged in...
The voices were mostly being sent to a non-exisitng center channel speaker.

Netflix, downloaded movies, etc. Just movies in general i guess? I know a long time ago when i had this i used the loudness equialization and it helped. This time with a new laptop I havnt been able to find that option.
