I recently went through my FLAC collection and added Replay Gain tags to
take advantage of the new support for Replay Gain. My collection is
heavily biased toward good classical recordings (i.e. discs with large
dynamic range). I have noticed that the Replay Gain for a good number
of these albums is actually a positive value, which I take to mean the
audio gain will be increased instead of decreased. A quick run through
the numbers shows that for some of the albums the new peak sample value
with gain applied will be greater that 1 (in one extreme case the new
peak sample is 3.4). My question is how does slimserver/squeezebox
handle this? Is it clipped or compressed somehow?
