I use only mp3gain and aacgain. As you pointed out, there seems to be a bug in the reading of tags. Some posts from earlier this year suggested that mp3gain tags aren't properly read, so SC applies it a second time, which could account for the doubling of the dB adjustment. Non-tagged tracks seem to adjust properly. Just an observation. My workaround is to continue using mp3 and aacgain and just disable the volume adjustment on the controller. -- chitunes ------------------------------------------------------------------------ chitunes's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29148 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=69563 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
