Hello ! I ran FLAC over 3 wav tracks from the same CD generating replaygain info.
Actually, albums gain and peak values do not match any track values (see run below). The TRACK_PEAK values are identical for the 3 tracks and, which is weird, we have one track with a TRACK_GAIN greater than the ALBUM_GAIN whereas another track has a lower value. I had expected the album values to be the maximum of those of the tracks. By the way, i guess the REPLAY_GAIN_TRACK is the gain required to reach the REFERENCE_LOUDNESS. # flac --replay-gain *.wav # for f in *.flac; do echo "\n$f"; metaflac --export-tags-to= - $f; done e512100f_00.flac REPLAYGAIN_REFERENCE_LOUDNESS=89.0 dB REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_GAIN=-8.58 dB REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_PEAK=0.99996948 REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_GAIN=-8.31 dB REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_PEAK=0.99996948 e512100f_01.flac REPLAYGAIN_REFERENCE_LOUDNESS=89.0 dB REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_GAIN=-8.62 dB REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_PEAK=0.99996948 REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_GAIN=-8.31 dB REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_PEAK=0.99996948 e512100f_11.flac REPLAYGAIN_REFERENCE_LOUDNESS=89.0 dB REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_GAIN=-7.35 dB REPLAYGAIN_TRACK_PEAK=0.99996948 REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_GAIN=-8.31 dB REPLAYGAIN_ALBUM_PEAK=0.99996948 _______________________________________________ Flac mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xiph.org/mailman/listinfo/flac
