Package: flac Version: 1.2.1-1.2 Severity: normal *** Please type your report below this line ***
flac has an undocumented option --apply-replaygain-which-is-not-lossless for normalising the files' volume when decoding files. The replaygain tags inside a file are in the format: REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_GAIN=-2.29 dB REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_PEAK=0.96014404 $ LC_NUMERIC=sv_SE.utf8 flac -d --apply-replaygain-which-is-not-lossless *.flac 01 d-moll.flac: INFO: applying album ReplayGain (gain=-2,00dB+preamp=0,0dB, low noise shaping, hard limiting) to output 01 d-moll.flac: WARNING: applying ReplayGain is not lossless 01 d-moll.flac: done $ LC_NUMERIC=C flac -d --apply-replaygain-which-is-not-lossless *.flac 01 d-moll.flac: INFO: applying album ReplayGain (gain=-2.29dB+preamp=0.0dB, low noise shaping, hard limiting) to output 01 d-moll.flac: WARNING: applying ReplayGain is not lossless 01 d-moll.flac: done Note that the gains differ. sv_SE uses a decimal comma while the data in the tags use a decimal point. In that locale, the decoder considers the decimal point an incorrect character and truncates the tag to "-2 dB". -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (700, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24.5 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fi_FI.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages flac depends on: ii libc6 2.7-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libflac8 1.2.1-1.2 Free Lossless Audio Codec - runtim ii libogg0 1.1.3-4 Ogg Bitstream Library flac recommends no packages. flac suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
