None of the default UMS engines use codecs; only AviSynth ones and UMS won't use those unless you specify them manually. So I think the normalization is happening either on your audio receiver (your amp or whatever) or the renderer (like PS3 or Xbox). I've seen AV receivers do it with presets like &...

Normalization is not and has never been a feature of UMS. It isn't even supported in any of our players - the feature is broken in MEncoder and it was never in the others.
It's possible there is a setting on your renderer or audio system that is doing it

Thanks for reporting that, Casper. That's one reason why we have kept the 3.0 branch in alpha. It's getting there though

We just merged our 100th Git Pull Request! For those who don't know, a Pull Request is a way for developers to submit improvements to code projects on GitHub. Because of how open it is, anyone is free to modify and submit code to us, which we can then choose to merge. This number shows how well our ...

General: UMSBuilder automatically builds the latest revision of UMS for Windows and Linux. To use it, simply unzip UMSBuilder and run (double-click) "Build for Windows" or "Build for Linux". Note: This will build the program from potentially untested code, so while it should usu...

@Wolfgan: UMS does not use its automatic detection of network speed to control transcoding quality. It only relies on your settings. Specifically the Maximum Bandwidth setting on the General Configuration tab and the Transcoding Quality setting on the Transcoding Settings tab.

Thanks for all the testing! The reason we don't have a separate "bugs" section is because many users think they have a bug when they ask for support, but sometimes they are using it wrong or they actually mean a feature request, so it's better to just call it all "support" and tr...

Thanks for this ExSport, I've confirmed and (hopefully) fixed it

On Windows if you don't have Java, the UMS installer will automatically download and install it. That gives the best of both worlds.
