How to set the volume level to one standard for all input sources and broadcasts

    Sound adjustments

    You can adjust the volume level of broadcasts and external inputs in the Sound or Sound adjustments options:

    • Advanced auto volume: adjusts all volume levels automatically
    • Volume offset: adjusts volume levels individually

    Adjusting the volume level automatically

    Advanced auto volume improves volume level differences when the volume level difference is large in the following cases:

    • commercials and actual broadcast
    • each broadcasting station
    • broadcast (Digital/Analog) *Available countries/regions only
    • each external input

    This setting automatically adjusts the volume to a fixed level that matches the volume changes of the broadcast and input signal. It's an effective setting when for instance, the volume of commercials feels louder than the volume of the program.

    1. Switch to the broadcast (or input) you want to adjust the volume of.
    2. Press the HOME button on the remote control.
    3. Select  Settings.
    4. The next steps will depend on your TV menu options:
      • Select Display & Sound → Sound → Advanced Auto Volume → Auto.
      • Select Sound → Sound → Advanced settings → Common → Advanced auto volume → Auto.
      • Select Sound → Sound adjustments → Advanced settings → Common → Advanced auto volume → Auto.
    5. Press the BACK button on the remote to return to the home menu.

    Adjusting the volume level individually

    This setting is related to the speaker volume of the BRAVIA TV. Therefore the volume of headphones and external outputs cannot be adjusted. Also, if the audio level is low even though the surround function is enabled, disable the surround function.

    1. Switch to the broadcast (or input) you want to adjust the volume of.
    2. Press the HOME button on the remote control.
    3. Select  Settings.
    4. The next steps will depend on your TV menu options:
      • Select Display & Sound → Sound → Volume level → Volume Offset.
      • Select Sound → Sound → Advanced settings → Input related →  Volume offset.
      • Select Sound → Sound adjustments → Advanced settings → Input related →  Volume offset.
    5. Adjust the volume with the ←/→ button on the remote, then press the ENTER button.
    6. Press the BACK button on the remote to return to the home menu.

    Settings for volume adjustments is now complete.
