I cannot make any updates without completely rewriting the whole thing from scratch. The software I used to write the user interface (Visual Basic 6) has been completely dead for years. BUT I have a few options for you. If you're not already using version 1.3.4 (the one still labeled "Beta" on the download page), that one should be able to load any file regardless of what characters are used in the filename. It's not a perfect solution: any non-Latin characters in the file names will appear as a...

I also thought of a special character that I had in the title of a Merle Haggard album, which is the heart symbol in the album "I ♥ Country". So if it were possible to add this character, but it probably doesn't have to be that necessary.

Yeah, the application folder is not the proper place to save log files. Probably wasn't the ideal location even back in 2001 when I wrote it, but back then at least it worked :) Just pick another directory, doesn't matter which one.

I did some additional examination of the tracks with the problem: the drop-off of the volume happens at 1 minute in on each and every one of the tracks. Any idea what MP3 Gain did and how do I prevent it from happening again? I haven't been able to figure out a batch process to increase the volume enmass, so I am in the process of doing each (of the 1800+) tracks individually. Thanks again in advance for any help you can provide.

Thanks for the reply. I didn't use a mic, just straight music tracks from various sources that I wanted to clean-up. Any ideas of how to get the tracks to stay at a constant volume throughout each one. The drop-off in the middle of a song is really annoying. Thanks again.

Yes, the 1.5.2 back end will work with the v1.2.5 or v1.3.4 versions of the GUI. The menu "Options -> Tags -> Ignore (do not read or write tags)" will prevent all header changes. The message by 2Bdecided (third-from-last message) in that "mp3gain is NOT lossless" gives a technical breakdown, but the short version is: Most of the time it's completely lossless, i.e. the hash should be the same if you make a gain change of +N and then make a gain change of -N. In some weird cases where it's not technically...

Just to answer my own question...I managed to compile after using vcpkg to install mpg123 and integrated with Visual Studio. The resulted build also contains mpg123.dll that's needed to run. See my fork. Combined with my fork of QMP3Gain, we can finally work with Unicode filenames on Windows.

Kin posted a comment on merge request #1

Kin — Tue, 23 Jan 2024 07:13:11 -0000

Please build this and release to the world! It's about time to support unicode filenames. I downloaded master and had a hard time compiling using VS2022 without errors. After copying the "mpglibDBL" folder from earlier version, I still get 47 errors. Obviously there is a dependency somewhere.

Hey, The "11 errors during processing" message in MP3 Gain could indicate that there are issues with some of the newly added songs that are preventing MP3 Gain from processing them correctly. There are a few things you can try to troubleshoot this issue: Check the error log: Clicking "Yes" to view the error log will give you more information about which files are causing errors and what the errors are. This information can help you identify and troubleshoot the issue. Check the file format and quality:...

I've been trying to install MP3GAIN 1-2-5 full on my win10 pc and whilst it downloads ok (or seems too) the install wizard does it's thing and I get the message "MP3Gain is installed" although it isn't. The only way I can use it is by running the wizard over and loading it when that completes. Any help gratefully received! Jonathan, Devon UK.
