Is this sound reasoning? In the Squeezebox world, yes. That's just the way RG is implemented on Squeezeboxes.
Other players might be intelligent enough to factor in the additional headroom available when digital attenuation is in force, although I don't know of any that do. I get the impression that Squeezebox Server is in possession of all the necessary data to do this (file peak level, RG gain, SB volume setting), so I'd have thought it ought to be fairly easy to implement. But Logitech's engineers might have reasons for not doing so (other than the obvious one that they can't be bothered). The peculiar behaviour of the volume control I mentioned in my previous post is one possible reason; perhaps there are others too subtle for my feeble brain to think of. -- cliveb Transporter -> ATC SCM100A ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=71138 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
