Every one knows VLC media Player is a global awesome player for playing both Audio and Video Formats, it plays almost all available Formats. It has lots of advantages, one main advantage is its Volume Option, in VLC media Player you can Set 2 Times Higher Volume than other Media Players. This Volume can be Easily increased using Ctrl + UP ARROW or Scrolling mouse Wheel up.
When you keep the volume at 400%, it amplifies sound than normal output. The Speakers Used in Desktop Computers Can Produce sound than normal, but if you take laptop speakers there is a limit for producing the sound, it is designed for portable purpose, If the limit exceeds your Laptop Speaker will get Spoiled so always keep low sound in VLC media player if you are using it in laptop.
The Other important thing is “You Can’t Claim Warranty From the Manufacture” because its your mistake. You Have to Spend Your own Bucks to Repair it. So Keep your Volume Lower or Use Headphones or External Speakers.
I hope you Guys keep this in your mind and save your money ?
Thanks, but I’m not VLC user know. Movie player on Ubuntu is enough for all š
Hey panoet thanks for the comment , i use both windows and ubuntu, vlc is available for ubuntu too! i think u should give a try š
ohk….hey Karthik, what a coincidence…it has happened to my laptop…I think so. No sound comes from the laptop speakers. It happened a long back. And if I am not confused, I was using VLC media player when this problem happened. I must have played with the sound settings š
Without sound, my laptop looks dull. I would have gone for repair but I delayed. I will soon go for a repair. Thanks for sharing this info.
May be u must have used with high volume! overloading anything wont be stable !
oww thanx for the info… i hav been using VLC recently due to the volume extending option… š
Volume option is awesome feature in VLC, but That is Good only in the Case of External Speakers ! not will Mini Laptop speakers!
I’ve been using this K, and it’s good!
Good day!
Hope you like VLC ! š

Ashwin Atleast Now Reduce it to normal or use External Speakers !
Hi…
Thanx for letting us know about this info. I’m a great fan of VLC. I use to listen to songs in high volume. I think that I’m the right person to keep this thing in my mind.
Thanks for the Comment Kumar, Keep the Volume in Normal so that you can save some bucks!
oh gosh! i was not aware of it. I have been using it on my lap for a long time.. thanks for letting us know.
VLC is mt favorite media player, in my lap sound is always below 10 % š
Oh that quite true. One must be careful with VLC from now on.
Thanks For the Comment Buddy!
Well, usually I am not hearing-impaired and like to keep the volume down.
But after reading your posts, as a test I increased the volume to 400% (with the laptop volume at it’s full limit too). No sign of any speaker damage it. Hmm… š
P.S. I have been using VLC since half a decade now and the laptopn on which I did this test is a still-under warranty 9 months old Dell Inspiron with Core 2 Duo.
Oh thanks I knew about the double volume but was un aware of the fact about lappy speakers.. š But anyways these days I use only Klite because VLC crashes regularly showing some Hardware-X or directX problem, where u can hear only the audio.
BTW karthikeyan you have a nice blog!! Keep it going!
Thanks Pradeep, for the Comment!! Stay Tuned!
I hardly listen to music on my laptop and whenever I listen I keep the volume at 60-70%. So no risk for me š
