Hiya,

just wanna know, how does cue sheet replaygain works in fb2k? especially for track gain? I mean, it's just 1 whole big file, how do you apply track gain? is it a must to use album gain?

FB stores replaygain information in its own database.

Ok I've been poking around & it seems that fb2k stores replaygain values in database.foo

1) Why store the values there? Doesn't all the files already store their replaygain values in their ape2 tags?
2) It seems to be growing bigger & bigger with every new song I play. Wouldn't this affect app loading time?
3) How is replaygain for cue-sheet large ape files handled? By the database.foo? Any way to store the info natively on the ape files itself? I take it track gain is not supported?

Thanks PP for the wonderful program. Just trying to find out how it works. No complaints at all.

Edit: Didn't see the above post when posting. Thanks for clearing that up but the questions still stand.

Not every format support tags, user may choose not to add any tags, or file can be stored on read-only media... If file is writable and supports any safe way to store replaygain then foobar writes information to file as well.


I don't think it is loaded at startup, just used as lookup table when needed.

1) How to handle RG tags for multiple tracks in one APE stream? Multiple numbered tags? Is there a standard for this already?
