Hi Mark,

Thanks for this...and oh dear...I think I am about to be very
embarressad :(! If I understand you correctly my encoder arguements in
EAC need to include "--replay-gain". I am a non-techy so I am guessing
what you are referring to is the string of text in the 'Additional
command line options:' in 'Compression Options' in EAC.

In which case I may already be adding the replaygain tag, see my
encoder arguement from EAC below:

-6 -V -T "artist=%a" -T "title=%t" -T "album=%g" -T "date=%y" -T
"tracknumber=%n" -T "genre=%m" -T comment="%e" -T "comment=EAC (Secure
Mode)" %s --replay-gain

Please would you confirm this is already adding track gain as you
recommend? If this is the case - wow - do I feel a plonker now!!!
LMAO!!

Cheers, Nigel
