7.9 Replaygain

This allows you to control the replaygain function. The purpose of replaygain is to adjust the volume of the music played so that all songs (or albums, depending on your settings) have the same apparent volume. This prevents sudden changes in volume when changing between songs recorded at dierent volume levels. For replaygain to work, the songs must have been processed by a program that adds replaygain information to the ID3 tags (or Vorbis tags).

Note: APEv2 tags are not currently supported.b Options for replaygain are:

Enable Replaygain This turns on/o the replaygain function.

Prevent Clipping Avoid clipping of a song’s waveform. If a song would clip during playback, the volume is lowered for that song. Replaygain information is needed for this to work.

Replaygain Type Choose the type of replaygain to apply:

Album Gain Maintain a constant volume level between albums, but keep any in- tentional volume variations between songs in an album. (If album gain value is not available, uses track gain information).

Track Gain Maintain a constant volume level between tracks. If track gain value is not available, no replaygain is applied.

Track Gain If Shuing Maintains a constant volume between tracks if Shuffle is set to Yes. Reverts to album mode if Shuffle is set to No.

Pre-amp This allows you to adjust the volume when replaygain is applied. Replaygain often lowers the volume, sometimes quite much, so here you can compensate for that. Please note that a (large) positive pre-amp setting can cause clipping, unless prevent clipping is enabled. The pre-amp can be set to any decibel (dB) value between -12dB and +12dB, in increments of 0.1dB.

7.10 Beep Volume

Controls the volume of the beep that is heard when skipping forward or backward be- tween tracks. The beep is disabled when set to Off.

7.11 Auto-Change Directory

Control what Rockbox does when it reaches the end of a directory. If Auto-Change Directory is set to Yes, Rockbox will continue to the next directory. If Auto-Change Directory is set to No, playback will stop at the end of the current playlist. Using the Random feature requires you to rst generate a folder list via the Random Folder Advance Conguration plugin (see section 10.4.11 (page 129)).
