@andrewilley@maxmp Hello again, so I conclude that the root of this problem is OPUS. Poweramp chose one way of dealing with it, foobar2000 chose another, and they don't play well together. As is tradition, foobar2000 devs say the fix is in Poweramp's hands, and vice versa. I chose to circumvent all of it by re-muxing all opus audio into matroska containers. For reference: ffmpeg -i input.opus -c:a copy output.mka I hope this helps someone Googling in the future. Now all my RG values are applied properly in Poweramp. Good times!

Hey @maxmp, I swear I had enabled email notifications but I still didn't get any... I interpret your post to mean that Poweramp is working as intended. However, these opus files that I sent get their RG tags set by foobar2000 just like all other audio files I listen to... but they're either too faint or too loud, I constantly have to change the volume manually. How can we work around this? Shall I send you an example opus file that has proper RG interpretation in Poweramp?? Sincerely, Masklin

@maxmp @andrewilley Hello Max and Andre, sorry for the delay, I had forgotten to enable email notifications, so didn't notice your reply until now! First off, I must correct my earlier statement. The problematic opus files (most of them) DO get affected by enabling/disabling RG in Poweramp... but! They're always +5 dB, so some of them that would have needed e.g. +13 dB are really quiet, and some are super loud. You get the picture. Enclosing two example files that suffer from this problem - they have +2.75 dB and +3.82 dB scanned with foobar2000 v2.1.2 (Jan 2024). But somehow they're both +5 dB in Poweramp, as previously stated. Very grateful if you can figure this one out! Oh and my Poweramp version is 981004-ed39e1a4, or just 981 I guess.

Hello, I'd like to add to this discussion: The vast vast majority of my opus files, that have been RG-scanned by foobar2000, are not volume-adjusted by Poweramp. Poweramp reports their RG as +5 db, as if that's some kind of default. I don't understand it. A minority has RG values different from +5 db, and for those few, the volume is adjusted. I tried re-scanning my music folders after having signed up for the latest/unstable builds in the Play Store. If I go to the change log, the top title is "Builds 978-981:", so I guess I have one those builds where the opus RG fix should be present already, going by the discussion in this thread. And yet... most of my opus files aren't being volume-adjusted. FLAC, mp3, and ogg all work fine. The RG preamp works, for what it's worth, for all files including the problematic opus ones. What should I do?
