NEW: Improved audio analysis and volume leveling (R128)
jrdiandrea:
I just installed mc19 a few days ago and re-analyzed all of my audio files, about 27k. I now have 2 sets of peak level, volume level & dynamic range results when i look at individual file tags. Is this normal. If not what should I do?!
Thx!

This is normal. Media Center uses the Volume Level (R128) tags during playback.
The Volume Level (ReplayGain) tags are for compatibility with other players - Media Center can read legacy ReplayGain tags (which are not as good as R128) and after analysis will write ReplayGain 2.0 tags with the R128 data.
Dynamic Range (R128) is a measure of the track's overall dynamic range. (difference between loudest and quietest parts)
Dynamic Range (DR) is a measure of crest factor and produces results compatible with the Dynamic Range Database.
Tracks with higher dynamic range values are typically better mastered than those with lower dynamic range values.

Makes sense now. Thx!!

But I do need to analyze the new tracks, right?

You will. Auto-import can be set to automatically analyze new files though - but it may skip over files if they have existing ReplayGain data. (I'm not sure if that applies to MC19 now due to the move to R128)
