How to adjust audio volume of mp4 movie without altering or re-encoding the video in any way?
Simple question:
I have an mp4 movie (H.264 codec) which has an audio track that is too loud.
The video track is exactly perfectly as I want it to be, and I don't want it changed in any way -- just the audio track.
All I want to do is lower the volume, but every single program/application I can find to do this ALSO then re-exports or re-encodes or somehow alters the video track as well. I've tried all sorts of video and audio software, including QuickTime, iMovie, QuickTime Player 7, VideoPad, SimpleMovieX, FinalCutPro, Prism, VLC, QTAmateur, Amadeus, and others whose names escape me at the moment. Not a single one, as far as I can tell, allows the user to just alter a file's audio track and leave the video track untouched.
So my question is: Does anyone know of any software that allows the user to (easily) adjust a movie file's audio volume, and then "saves" the changes without having to re-encode or re-export or touch the video track in any way?
Do any of the applications listed above have this feature, and I just missed how to do it? If not, is there some other application that can do this?
What I guess I'm looking for is a program that has FEWER features than most of these, all of which seem to entangle the user in video editing unnecessarily.
