Problem saving ReplayGain info in 8.0.293
« on: June 07, 2002, 09:02:25 pm »

Finally finished ripping my library (~10,500 tracks) and have been analyzing replay gain in batches of 800-1000.  After the first few batches, I started setting the CUSTOM1 field to "GAINED" so I'd remember where I left off.  

Tonight I'm browsing through my library and playing with some DSP settings and I realize that most of the songs I'm listening to show "Replay Gain (for current track)" as 0.0 when I KNOW I analyzed them before.  It turns out that all 8000 tracks I analyzed and set the CUSTOM1 field on never saved their gain settings.

So after a little experimentation I found that...

As each track is analyzed, the proper tags are written to the file.
When the analyze dialog is dismissed, you're left with the properties dialog BUT...
the cached track info in the properties dialog isn't updated with the new gain settings SO...
If you then modify a field and save, you actually rewrite the tags with OLD gain value which in my case was always 0.0 since the tracks were just ripped.  Sigh.
