Have you tried volumes over 256?  255 is full volume, so to increase the volume you 
will need to use volumes over 255.  I have
increased volume to 500 or 600 without any distortion (like the books say will happen) 
so try somewhere between 400 and 600, that
should work.  You can place the sprite(x).volume=400 in a frame script; it's easiest.

Subject: <lingo-l> volume of QT movie



I am having a small problem with the volume of 2 QT movies within the dir
movie.  The volume is not as loud as my other voice overs, so I have been
trying to increase the volume using lingo.  No luck so far, here is the
script I'm using for the volume:
on StartMovie
sprite(7).volume = 256
end

and here is the frame script for playing the QTmovie
on ExitFrame
if the movieRate of sprite 1 = TRUE then
go to the frame
else
go to "introScotty"
end if
end ExitFrame

I'm not exactly sure where I need to place the volume script....should it be
a frame script or attached as a behavior to the cast member.  I have tried
to do both and this causes director to skip right through the movies and go
to the next marker.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Steffanie
