Phillips HDTV set 30PW862H has Uneven Sound

My Phillips HDTV set 30PW862H has Uneven Sound and is much louder on
commercials than the regular program broadcast. I have AVL turned on
but that doesn't seem to make any difference. Are there any service
code adjustments I can make in this area ??

I don't believe there's any adjustment there you could make.
What kind of programs/provider are they?

In my experience it seems that it is the broadcast that cranks up the volume
during commercials, no fault of the receiver.
I use the mute button.

It isn't just some louder, it's a lot louder. We have to change to the
volume from say 32 to 26. Is the AVL adjustable in the service code
setups ?

I just purchased a Philips 30PF9946D/37.
I find that changing from a station that broadcasts in mono to one
in stereo makes a big change in the volume.
I can use the personal settings menu for audio and minimize this.

I use a DVR to blow past the commercials.

Currently, commercials are allowed to be as loud as the loudest sound in the program during which they air. Gunshots? Car crashes? People screaming? Welcome to the volume of the commercials.
