I still can't figure it out! blink.gif

This is what I do:
Put Frontah files, mppdec, mppenc, replaygain into a folder.
Open frontah, disable "redirect stderr to file", add a folder of mpc's, select ReplayGain (album), click the big replaygain button.
The dos window flashes briefly, and my files all say OK, but the RG_Track, RG_Album show 0.00 dB and Time, cpu etc. are blank? unsure.gif


The problem is with replaygain.exe. It cannot find mppdec.exe if it's not located somewhere in the current directory or %PATH%. Placing replaygain.exe and mppdec.exe in the same directory won't do it. Replaygain.exe could be changed to not only search for mppdec.exe in the current directory and %PATH%, but also in the same directory as itself.

To make it work, you need to place mppdec/replaygain in your C:\WINDOWS folder. Or better, create a new folder, like C:\Encoders, and add it to your %PATH%, like this:

My Computer -> Properties -> Advanced -> Environment Variables. Look in "System variables" for Path. Edit it and place ";C:\Encoders" at the end without the qutoes. ; need to be there to separate entries.

Wow! Cheers madah. Sorry for being a bit slow, and thanks for all the help! biggrin.gif

I'm really liking Frontah now that I actually know how to use it properly!! Great work smile.gif

madah,

Are you thinking or supporting VorbisGain in future versions of Frontah? smile.gif

VorbisGain is already supported... along with WaveGain/MP3Gain/ReplayGain/MetaFlac wink.gif

Great job on Frontah. I just used Frontah 0.91 to encode/replaygain some albums and found a possible bug. I used replaygain on the FLAC files which worked great. But, then I was transcoding FLAC->MPC and the replaygain info gets copied improperly. All of the MPC files have replaygain of 0. Please try it out.

Thanks for the front-end.

That's intentional, because replaygaining the MPC might alter the values. And with MPC, the replaygain is stored in the header, not the APEv2 tag. So you'll have to run replaygain on your MPC files afterwards anyway.
R.A.F.
Why is Frontah not network-capable?

Well, my problem is as follows: I have my original APE-Files on computer no. 1, and want to transcode them by pipe-encoding to MPC. And compute and store them on a second computer's hard-disk. Both comps are connected thru a normal network-cable. All seems to work great - but it only seems. Because after trying to listen to it, there just plays no sound, which means, the generated musics are just "empty".
Any idea what could be the cause for this error?
