Personally I would like if someone could use AI to enhance the voices of the actors, I find a lot of movies like to use loud ominous music while the characters are casually talking in a soft voice. Really drives me insane, and placing subtitles helps this problem but it creates a new one, I tend to get distracted by the subtitles and find myself not watching the movie



This could be an issue with your audio mixing in your particular speaker setup. Often times trying to play audio meant for surround systems (5.1, 7.1, etc) on stereo channels results in a poor audio mix.


And Netflix in particular seems to love defaulting to 5.1 tracks when it shouldn't.


I don't even see an option to manually select a stereo track anymore. They seem to have removed it from my Smart TV's app.


I don't think I've yet encountered something with an English 5.1 track that doesn't also have an English stereo track mixed in with whatever foreign language tracks are present but who knows what features any given app has.


Diney Plus too


a way to remove the mood music and leave the voices and foley.

I really enjoyed the cinematography of a film the other day, but the music completely ruined it.
