I'm under the impression flac creates an RG tag holder for album gain in each track as it's ripped, saves a copy of the track gain applied, and repeats until all the tracks are done. It then does a quick compute of those copies of saved track gain values, and goes back and writes the album gain tags with the correct value. Can't see this action taking much time for a computer to do as the album tags have already been created and padded at the track rip stage. Now I guess that if you removed a track from the 'ripping' directory before all the tracks are ripped, then that track would have the album gain tag in only its padded form. I've never tried that to see what the result would be though :) And then you get to the 'how does the flac CLI know it's dealing with the last track' question ;) -- CavesOfTQLT ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CavesOfTQLT's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=263 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18533 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
