Problem |
Why are the commercials
so loud? While we won’t try to
evaluate that question here, the Mute Button could be more useful |
|
Solution |
Instead of being an “on/off” switch for TV sound, I
propose that the mute button have three settings: - - Quiet. This new setting would allow the volume to
be lowered to ˝ of normal, so that louder portions of the show/commercials
would be “tolerable” - Mute (similar
to “mute” now) |
|
Remarks |
Just like “3-way light bulbs,” the intermediate
setting for sound would be very useful, especially for those with hearing
difficulties who normally listen to TV at an elevated volume. This would allow them to “step it down” to
a reasonable level for portions of the program/commercial that may not be as
interesting. |
