    AC3 has a wide dynamic range. The soft parts are softer and the loud parts are louder. That is the way it is supposed to be (your AC3 is most likely the original untouched from the DVD source). You could try enabling DRC and boost in your decoder.

    For re-encoding to mp3 I would suggest HeadAC3he or BeSweet. Demux with AVI-Mux GUI first.
