The sound is amplified very much in my recordings and does not sound like the original.

I tried to record a video, the picture is great but the sound is amplified, it seems somewhat distorted.
Can somebody help me, please?
Thank you.
When the volume is set to 23 for recording, I have to lower it to 5 to read the file and get the same level of sound and it is not as clear as the original.
Here is the log file

What is your audio path?
Sorry, I'm having trouble with the non-English in the log.
are you just doing a screen capture (and desktop audio?) or ?? Are you using a microphone plugged into PC?
And which volume setting are you talking about? the basic one (typically at full volume) or Advanced Audio Settings (where you can actually provide a db boost to incoming audio)?

I tried to record a video on youTube and used my built-in sound card.
I am talking about the sound level in Windows when setting it to 23 and then to 5.
I hope it's clearer now.
Thank you.

Using OBS to 'download' YouTube videos (pirate?) is usually a bad tool choice. There are other tools much better suited to downloading non-protected YT videos (without having to re-encode, and resultant loss of quality). I strongly recommend figuring out different, better tool than OBS
In case of piracy, don't expect much help on that use case in this forum
if you mention YT video as a test case, then a better understanding of your use case is needed to provide a OBS settings recommendation

I needn't justify my use. You are being quite arrogant and derogatory.
You are not a judge and by the way I master English as much as you do if not more since I am an English teacher and a translator.
You'd better keep your advice to yourself. I am not used to being treated that way. You ought to be more respectful when adressing people.

Lawrence didn't say anything negative about your English. He was trying to help & gave you good advice, now you owe him an apology.....
