I played with clementine some, but there seemed to be a lot of overhead/bloat...
Cog is barebones but doesn't have features like replay gain support...
Yeah, that's partially why I didn't stick with Cog when I tried it. I'm actually coming from Songbird, so Clementine is light weight comparatively.
Serious question; if I've already applied RG tags via other means (I actually can't remember which sets I've done), I notice that xact writes a set anyway. Does it chuck/overwrite the old set or does it add a second set, or what? Paging scott, cleanup on aisle 5.
Off the top of my head, I don't think xACT is removing any RG tags unless you specifically tell it to. I think I'm just calling
metaflac's
--add-replay-gain command
documentation for the command:
--add-replay-gain Calculates the title and album gains/peaks of the given FLAC files as if all the files were part of one album, then stores them as FLAC tags. The tags are the same as those used by vorbisgain. Existing ReplayGain tags will be replaced. If only one FLAC file is given, the album and title gains will be the same. Since this operation requires two passes, it is always executed last, after all other operations have been completed and written to disk. All FLAC files specified must have the same resolution, sample rate, and number of channels. The sample rate must be one of 8, 11.025, 12, 16, 22.05, 24, 32, 44.1, or 48 kHz.
I can double check the code when I get home
