Re: Video editing compensation for hearing problems

The best method to accomplish this to buy your family member a good hearing aid.
Because if you fix the video's for one person, the others that hear well may not like the video's sound. That is not a help to them anyway, because they still will not hear well in the outside world.
So getting them a good hearing aid with options they can set, seems like a better solution or some how cure their hearing problem.

Thank you for your suggestion. I'm afraid that isn't a good solution for my $ituation (see the details in my above replay to Karl), all technological curing solutions have been exhausted to the extent of my knowledge, so I'm aiming lower than solving/bypassing the problem as a whole, and focusing on what I think I can do. Regarding the multiple viewers issue, there isn't an issue, as such a scenario is extremely rare (very different tastes -> rare shared viewing), and everyone got their own device, so watching the original version separately is always an option. Thank you.	[reply]

One thing I would keep in mind is. That it was sound that made their hearing go bad, so what you want to do is take the sounds they can hear and make them more audible. That will degrade their hearing even more. There is new technology's "Auditory brainstem response" that is being used today. But that will cost money and if your not willing to put any money into it your best bet is to just use some equalizer to tune the sounds to what is audible to the subject. Having hearing damage then their range of sounds will be limited, so an equalizer would be the best bet in this case.	[reply]
