  About gnormalize
gnormalize is a front-end to wavegain, an audio converter, encoder, ripper, meta data (tag) editor and audio cd player.
 
Supported formats: MP3, MP4 (or M4A or ACC), MPC (or MPP or MP+), OGG, APE and FLAC. gnormalize decodes the MP3, MP4, MPC (or MPP - MusePack), APE (Monkey's Audio), FLAC and Vorbis OGG files to wave, then normalizes the wave to a targeted volume level and re-encodes it. gnormalize can also rip audio cd; encode audio data; convert audio format between MP3, MP4, MPC, APE, FLAC and OGG; and change the encoding and ID3 tag properties of final normalized files.

Key Features:

* Convert from/to MP3, MP4, MPC, APE, OGG, FLAC and Wave;
* Support for LAME, FAAC, OGGENC, MPPENC, FLAC and MAC encoders;
* Support for LAME, FAAD, OGGDEC, MPPDEC, FLAC and MAC decoders;
* Rip audio CDs utilizing cdparanoia or cdda2wav;
* Play audio CDs utilizing cdcd or Audio::CD or gnormalize::cdplay;
* Edit and get Meta data like artist, title, album, ... ;
* Support normalization with adjustable sensibility;
* Can normalize/convert files recursively into the directory;
* Normalize with ReplayGain algorithms;
* Includes wavegain to normalize wave files;
* Read the CDDB entry for an audio CD with CDDB_get;
* Translation to English and Portuguese (Brasil).
 
Requirements
This application requires GTK+ version 2.6.x. Other dependencies include:
gtk2-perl (version >= 1.040), wavegain, cdparanoia.
Encoders: lame, faac, oggenc, mppenc, mac and flac.
Decoders: oggdec, mppdec and faad.
 
  Latest Version: 0.60
- Now, gnormalize uses 'wavegain' to normalize wav files because 'wavegain' is based on more accurate gain_analysis.c code of ReplayGain to adjust and normalize the sound amplitude. (For more information, see http://www.replaygain.org/ and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replaygain)

- On WaveGain-1.2.6/wavegain.c, I change the rename() c function by xrename(), because rename fail when used on different mounted file systems. The Author of wavegain is John Edwards.

- New Method for easy translations;

- Remove 'file chooser' Check Button because 'Gtk2::FileSelection' is deprecated;

- Minimum required gtk2 version >= 2.6.0;

- Don't need more to make Wave copy;

- Add mac (Monkey's Audio Console) to encode and decode APE format inside gnormalize*.tar.gz;

- Can use mplayer to play all supported files format (need compile the most recent mplayer to support MPC and APE, for example).;

- Some Bug Fixes.
