I don’t watch Roku streaming shows because when my volume is at number 20 for everything else on tv , with Roku streaming I have to increase volume to 30-35 to hear properly so when a commercial comes on my speakers are strained by sudden very loud increase in volume distubng neighbours especially if hands full in kitchen and have to drop everything to run to turn down , so it’s very annoying to have to do that , so I don’t use it at all. I did the auto volume settings everything and I’m an electronics tech/ computer tech so it’s easy for me to understand that it’s on your end that the problem is .

Greetings from the Roku Community, @Scamper!

Firstly, we sincerely apologize for any trouble and inconvenience this may have caused your streaming and we'd be happy to find you the best resolution possible.

Before we proceed, may we know if this happens inside The Roku Channel? If so, we will coordinate with the appropriate Roku team to investigate your device further. With this being said, kindly provide us with the following details below:

I agree. When the commercials come on the volume is obnoxious loud and gives me a headache. It’s also annoying to have to constantly lower and raise the volume between shows and commercials. I’m not sure why Roku cannot simple calibrate things so the shows and commercials are the same volume?! From other comments in here, I’ve read that this issues has been going on for years.
