I may have misunderstood you, but it sounds to me as if you may be misinterpreting what Foobar 2000 actually does with replaygain tags.
Are you expecting that if you switch on the option "use peak info to scale down peaks that still clip after applying replaygain", then when you calculate the replaygain tags they will be adjusted downwards if necessary? If you are, then that's not how it works. That option is a *playback* option, and does not affect the tags which are created. At the moment, the only way to ensure you don't get clipping due to replaygain when playing back on a Squeezebox is to amend the relevant values in the TRACK and ALBUM tables in the MySQL database *after* the Scanner process has set them up. All it requires is to run two SQL update statements, as detailed in the bug report referenced earlier in this thread. (Alternatively you could modify the tags in the individual files before they are scanned by SlimServer, but I'm not aware of any utility that will do it en mass, so it would be a mammoth task). -- 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=43195 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
