Hi Zlatan, In the United States, there is an act called CALM that limits perceived loudness of TV Ads, which will be enforced by the end of this year. Loudness measurement will be done according to ITU-R 1770 standard. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commercial_Advertisement_Loudness_Mitigation_Act I'm not sure if other countries have similar laws, but in Europe, EBU has a similar standard: http://tech.ebu.ch/loudness Cheers, Atsushi -- MARUI Atsushi Faculty of Music, Tokyo University of the Arts http://www.geidai.ac.jp/~marui GnuPG Public ID: 5AFA73F1 On 2011/09/20, at 20:04, Zlatan Ribic wrote: > Dear List, > > compressed comertials in broadcasting are much louder if compared with "standard" program.
