Title: Software to add Replay Gain tags to flac files?
Post by: JJZolx on 2005-09-16 03:59:58
I'd like to add replay gain tags to my entire flac library.  What software can I use (Windows GUI or command-line) to do this?  It will need to traverse the entire directory structure and add both track and album gain tags.  Albums are organized one per directory.

foobar (http://www.foobar2000.org/) would most likely be the easiest way..

You can use the metaflac command line utility to do it.

Code: [Select]
metaflac --add-replay-gain *.flac

Would work fine in any *nix type system, but the metaflac binary itself doesn't expand wildcards (instead relying on the shell to do that), so using Windows you would have to do something like:

Code: [Select]
metaflac --add-replay-gain Track01.flac Track02.flac ... Track10.flac

Not quite the easiest way to do it, but it could be possible to automate the process with scripting.

I would go with Cyaneyes' suggestion - Foobar would be your best bet.
