Package: normalize-audio Version: 0.7.7-12 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation? I have a shell script I wrote awhile back to turn 48/24 flac files into mp3, oga for HTML5 AUDIO tag, and 44.1/16 wav files to burn to CDs. That script used normalize audio programs to normalize mp3 created from avconv and to create ogg files from the flac. files. Everything worked fine for awhile. Today realized that my ogg and mp3 files were almost total trash. Yes, you could hear the tune, but with a severe downgrade of quality from the original flac files that qualified the new audio files run through normalize as trash. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I attempted to alter the bit rate and quality of the created audio files to no effect. I ripped out normalize programs from the script and deleted the package from my system. I shifted to mp3gain in the script for mp3 files and am living w/o normalization for ogg files. * What was the outcome of this action? By getting rid of the normalize programs in my script the audio is now close to the original. I.e. usable and not trash. * What outcome did you expect instead? I was surprised that a working program, normalize audio, stopped working. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.3-custom (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages normalize-audio depends on: ii libaudiofile1 0.3.6-2+b1 ii libc6 2.19-13 ii libmad0 0.15.1b-8 Versions of packages normalize-audio recommends: ii flac 1.3.0-3 ii vorbis-tools 1.4.0-6 Versions of packages normalize-audio suggests: ii mpg321 0.3.2-1.1 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
