 For now, the 8.0 community repositories are working well with 8.5, except you will need to pin the mlt and libmlt packages that come with 8.5.
I have noticed that KDE 4's Kmix is often missing sliders after installation, so go into the mixer's Settings-Configure Channels, then enable them all, and enable the slider labels, too. Then play with them to see if that helps. VLC and SMPlayer also seem to have better output for me than KMPlayer, especially after I put the volume multiplier in SMPlayer up to 900%....  I think KMPlayer is using Phonon or xine, which does not seem to put out a lot of sound by default. _________________ Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 14 inch: 4 GB RAM, Intel i5-480 processor, Intel HD graphics and sound, Intel 1000 "n" WiFi, Acer CrystalEye webcam, Hot Keys, suspend, hibernate, KDE openGL effects: all work out of the box with 64-bit MEPIS 11! |

In the smplayer options/general/audio, enable software volume control and crank it up to 900%. _________________ Lenovo ThinkPad Edge 14 inch: 4 GB RAM, Intel i5-480 processor, Intel HD graphics and sound, Intel 1000 "n" WiFi, Acer CrystalEye webcam, Hot Keys, suspend, hibernate, KDE openGL effects: all work out of the box with 64-bit MEPIS 11! |

Would adding pre-amp sliders to kmix via a /etc/asound.conf file ( as described in this thread: http://forum.mepiscommunity.org/viewtopic.php?t=23499 ) help?
