>Just tried to say that sometimes CDs are different, i.e. the »studio CD >1« very loud, the »live CD 2« much less volume, so I decided to go by >single discs, not »all CDs in a box grouped together as one album«.
Yes, you weren't particularly clear ;-) I thought you were saying that you store multi-disk albums with the same album name for each disk, and keep disk number tags. You then apply replaygain per disk per album. That wouldn't work if treating disks as part of one album, as there's only one album record, and thus only one album replaygain value. I guess it would work if treating disks as separate albums, if changing the setting causes SC to rescan the library and stores each disk as a separate album record. I think what you are saying is that you do something similar to me. Albums that are split over two disks just because of a limitation of the media, are ripped as one album with contiguous track numbering, or with disc+track numbering but treated as a single album. Albums where there are significantly different content on sub-sets of the songs (eg. disk 2), are ripped as separate albums (differing album names). I was ripping these with disk numbers, but treating them as part of the same album. I was setting album replaygain info for each set of songs that have meaning. eg. Pink Floyd "Ummagumma" (disk 1 - the studio album), and "Ummagumma" (disk 2 - the live album). But this doesn't work in SC with album replaygain info very well, unless (possibly) I treat disks as separate albums. _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
