Hey guys,
I'm very pleased to know you are working on ReplayGain support in
gnupod. I have just recently started to add ReplayGain tags to my music

benefit from this in my iPod, very nice.

In theory there could be clipping, but for 99% of the current pop music

I'm successfully using gnupod on my iPod video 30GB. Thanks to everyone

I have all my mp3s tagged for ReplayGain volume leveling using mp3gain.
This tool adds ReplayGain information using APE tags. Making gnupod read
