Slimserver itself doesn't do this, but it will use volume normalization that is stored in the tags/comments in the music file. For example, FLAC files have replaygain (replaygain_album_gain, replaygain_track_gain, etc.). I don't know how MP3 or other file formats handle it. What format are your fi

I've read the wikipedia where it says it can use the iTunes volume settings, but I can't seem to find the option in slim server. If it's a smart option and is always on then it's not working. Also, in reading the forums about replay gain it's been posted that there's an option in slim server to

Thanks. Now that I think about it I did know about that setting. My test database didn't have a player connected so I couldn't peruse that area. However, I still can't find anything about using iTunes volume adjustment like the wikipedia suggests. I used foobar to add replay gain on my test da

Just a point - if you do add the tags you do need to re-scan for changes as all the tag fetails are stored in the database, not read from the file. -- Eserim Eserim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?useri

My suggestion is to upgrade to the newest beta of Foobar (even if its only to tag your catalog). The replaygain section of the program has changed significantly since the last stable release and the latest beta adds some cool options for Replay-Gain like scan for Album Gain by directory, by tags o
