I would like to know what is the best and quickest way to add ReplayGain tags (both track and album gain) to my music files which are located in various sub-folders by artists and album names.
I tried the Batch Converter, enabled ReplayGain DSP to use Album ID to identify music of "same album", selected files from a specific folder and do a FLAC to FLAC conversion. The result seems to be promising.
How will album gains be calculated if pick a parent directory and let Batch Converter "convert" all files in all sub folders?
Will the DSP incorrectly lump files of same Album ID but located in different sub-folders (because they either are some special re-release or belong to different artist) and calculate album gain based on all those files?
Or should I set the DSP to use folder as an album identifier instead.
Also is there any bug in the R128 gain calculation?
In another thread (http://forum.dbpoweramp.com/showthre...-Gain-and-R128), Spoon mentioned "possible" bug.
Also the Utility Codec for ReplayGain with R128 apparently is still in beta testing but the DSP version is available in R14.4 release.
Just curious if I should just use the regular ReplayGain or R128.
Any information would be appreciated.
Thank you.
