Use AC3Filter to decode your AC3 stream, and configure the filter to add
whatever gain you need prior to final output.

Subject: [H] Sound level problem
I have a very unusual problem with my HTPC. Playback of xvid files
with mp3 encoded audio and mp3 audio files produces a very normal
volume level. However, playback of xvids encoded with AC3 the sound
is greatly diminished. As an example, normally playback at a volume
level of -28 on my Onkyo receiver is just fine - with AC3 i need to
set it all the way up to -5.
Anyone else come across this problem? Is there an easy way to fix it?
Maybe using an audio program to boost the volume and then re-save the
file?
