Software would not appear to be the answer to your problem here. Why not investigate a set of cordless headphones for listening to the TV which many so mildly affected do. Non-specialist amplification of ambient acoustics for hearing impaired woul not be advisable for anyone with a hearing loss as you could be easily boosting the wrong frequencies and be actually loosing intelligability in the range of speech.
