Title: Calculated Fields
Post by: Craig on January 23, 2009, 08:09:20 am
The recent discussion on replay gain and flac got me thinking. I can understand that a calculated field value can not be stored in tags to prevent mass tag updates should a value change somewhere, but if the calculation only references that particular file then this should not be a problem?

I'm thinking here that if I could create the field Replaygain_Track_gain and make it = replay gain +6 and store it in tags then it would solve the 83dB/89dB reference problem for me.

Just a thought

It's not currently possible to perform mathematical functions using calculated/expression based fields. "Calculated" means a new field calculated from a given string or expression based on other existing fields.
