OK. Never say you can't teach an old dog new tricks. We may not be enthusiastic about it at first, but we eventually come around. I can't promise you'll see it as a part of Rivendell any time soon, but I can promise there will be a discussion about it real, real soon. Especially since it sounds like most of the work is already done. Also, I can't say how far down the priority list it would fall. Remember, this old dog has always been of the opinion that *all* of the toys belong in the prod room, and that would include anything the prod rat needs so that absolutely nothing needs done after a cut leaves prod. In my mind, transmitter processing should only be needed for peak and overshoot control. Nothing more. However, extensive research has shown that there is no justice in this world, and in fact, there isn't supposed to be, so things aren't always as they should be, therefore..... So, this php script, is this after it's been through something like r128gain or is this entirely unrelated, or...... ??? Your php implementation is interesting at least, and implies that most of the work is already done, though I also think php isn't the best way. Porting that into Rivendell however, depending on exactly what you're doing with it ? -- Cowboy http://cowboy.cwf1.com _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list [email protected] http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
