I have to agree that the SlimServer support of ReplayGain is a bit err...crappy.
I mean, yes I have modded config files before and got it working, but the idea of ReplayGain is that it is switchable. e.g. I want to have a party or listen to random music I'd put my Slim in ReplayGain Radio mode. I want to really listen to a album I turn off all ReplayGain etc.... Having to mod/copy config files every time and reboot the server is quite frankly a pain in the behind so I gave up with it. Now I don't know Perl but surely something like this could be implemented: In the config file couldn't the following sort of change be made: [flac] -dcs --force-raw-format --endian=little --sign=signed --skip=$START$ --until=$END$ $REPLAYGAINPARAM$ -- $FILE$ Then the $REPLAYGAINPARAM$ variable is populated with either: "" (null) - Default, no replaygain. "--apply-replaygain-which-is-not-lossless=a" - Album mode "--apply-replaygain-which-is-not-lossless=t" - Radio mode The $REPLAYGAINPARAM$ variable gets populated with one of these 3 strings by a switch on the web interface and ideally from the box via the remote. A bit of a hack I know, but a better solution than the current one methinks. -- Jim _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
