Hi makd511:

To up the volume go to the advanced settings tabbed page then check the normalize box in the middle on the left and move the slider to the right ... I usually convert with the setting at 0.6 ... if you find that distortion is creeping in then back it down ... 0.25 is the default setting with no volume boost nor diminish ...

Also, I always convert at audio bitrate 128 kps joint-stereo and 300 kps video at 24 fps ... even if playing on to my tv via player hook up ... video at 300 kps seems to work fine at 320x240 ... enough detail and reasonable file size ... approx 200MB per hour ... I find this gives good video and that the nicer audio track is worth it ...

I've done hundreds of conversions and lots of settings comparisons over the last couple of years ... to check for yourself, encode a couple of minutes at different settings to compare ...
