  • Still goes to 200% unfortunately. Restarted VLC, the config file now reads norm-max-level=1.000000. There's no need to enable the normaliser itself (and how to in the first place)? But a plausible solution, I assumed it'd work.

  • I'll see if this is reproducible on other platforms and may file a bug for VLC.

  • You need to enable the Volume normalizer (see link).

    One more spot : Preferences > All > Interface > Qt, set "Maximum Volume displayed" to 100.

    Volume normaliser seems to not affect max volume amplification in any way. And limiting the displayed volume in Qt settings affects only the volume slider display and only if it's a default VLC-style green cone. If the native volume slider style is used, then it's movement range is still 0-200%, despite the setting. In any case, none of the above affects the max volume amplification when changing the volume via mouse scroll or keyboard hotkeys. It still goes up to 200%.
