Hey guys, lately I've been playing PS3 on my 22' LG monitor. I'm not quite sure on the model but it's got rounded edges and touchscreen menu buttons. I've been playing with headphones but the volume isn't very loud. Is there a way to turn up the volume on the monitor (the headphones are at max vol.)?
monitor speaker volume is different from headphone volume in terms of how you adjust it. I do the same with my samsung, designating the settings for audio output 'external' and it's not very loud with headphones. pretty much all you can do is max out your headphones. adjusting the volume on the monitor will only affect the monitor's internal speakers, not your headphones.
@defaulttag: If I hook up speakers to the monitor, then hook up my headphones the speakers, will that make it louder? Anyways I'll try that out, thanks for the help.
@Eric_Buck: it might. certainly worth a try. external speakers like PC speakers only control the speakers volume, not the headphone jack output it has. again, you might be limited by your headphones volume settings. but you'll never know, since the monitor is going through the external speakers first before reaching your headphones, it could have an effect on volume.
Well if I use headphones, I just connect my ps3 to my pc, however sound outputs to my home theater system with a 3.5mm audio jack to a RCA adapter with a red and white audio cable. However not everyone has a setup like that, that's the only advice I can offer.
Or maybe output the ps3, white and red av cables, to that adapter, to the back of your pc speakers and hope there is a hole for a headphone. Then again there might not be one, so that might not work. I guess the op is on his own there.
I have a 24" LG Flatron Monitor, it doesn't have touch screen menu buttons, but there is a button along the side of the screen labelled 'FÜN' (I have no idea why), from this you can access all of the adjustments of the monitor such as volume, brightness etc. Yours probably isn't the same model but if it does have a 'FÜN' option anywhere, try that.
