from what i can tell jellyfin normalises/dampens all the audio it plays through its official frontends, and i will admit normally it isnt as grainy as it was, but idk how it got messed up so badly when going to my client (official android app)

luckily from what i could tell it was only one-off, and i dont believe it would happen with a non-official viewer/listener cause it was most likely something during transcoding the cache
