 Careful, this is the audio volume filter, not the -vol option (the -vol
 option will transparently insert a volume audio filter, the option is just
 kept for backward compatibility, and as a simpler way of changing the
 volume).

 -vol 512 should indeed double the volume.

 If you want to use the volume audio filter, use -af volume=2.0 (for
 example).

 Please re-open this ticket if you believe something is still wrong, or
 open another one if you think something can be improved in the
 documentation.
