Belarus' regulator moves to quiet obnoxiously loud commercials

Belarus' trade ministry has brought legal action against several television channels over obnoxiously loud commercials following complaints from TV viewers, Telegraf reported with reference to Yezhednevnik.

The trade ministry filed the lawsuits after metrology experts found that commercials on STV, RTR, NTV-Belarus, Channel 8 and First Music Channel were 1-2.5 dB louder than other broadcasts.
