  1. I shut that one off because if I got in the car and it was on radio PA would start playing music into the bit bucket. 🙄
  2. Thanks and changed. I'll keep tabs on it.
  3. I know there were changes to bluetooth connection delay waiting for start. Since 981, android 13 and Moto 5G stylus (2022) in my car about half the time I'll start the car and the display will show the current track title but play doesn't start. I must take the phone out of my pocket and hit the start button in the Poweramp app. The start button on the console of my car does nothing, only the start button in the app on my phone will resume playback.
  4. Dolly Parton - Rockstar! Yes, I'd buy it again, Dolly Rocks! Most of the covers feature the original artist and there are 8 original Dolly tracks.
  5. I had a problem like this back in about 2003 with MP3 files that I'd ripped using Nero FHG encoder and VBR with highest quality settings. I did find a program called VBRFix that would analyze whole folders and correct the duration for each track. I now use DBPoweramp and LAME for MP3's, still VBR highest quality settings and track timings are spot on.
  6. My guess is that the determination would be made as a part of the act of adding to the Queue. In addition if any type of shuffle is turned on for the Queue it pretty much mandates track gain. If no type of shuffle is active PA would know if it was an album that was selected to be added to the Queue, If Album set album gain. If another album is added set album gain. If track added set track gain for that track. and so on. I think all this would happen as stuff is added to the Queue rather than while the Queue is playing.
  7. Since Album Gain is intended to have multiple albums play at similar volumes without affecting the relative volumes of tracks within an album, I would guess it wouldn't be quite as simplistic as you say. Perhaps Max could look at the open source of SlimServer (Logitech Media Server) to see how they implement "smart gain" that applies the correct gain type based on what's in the Queue.
  8. I guess we will just agree to disagree as in my use case I load the Queue with mostly albums.
  9. This item in the Feature request poll should have "Queue" removed from being forced to Track Gain. I, for one, generally load a bunch of selected albums to the Queue for driving in the car and also when using headphones for stuff like walks, yardwork, etc. I would hope that if "Smart Replay Gain" were implemented, the Queue would be treated no differently than category type play (that I never use).
  10. Looking through the list of the Feature Request Voting list there's bracketed "[LINK LINK ...]. Are these words "LINK" supposed to be clickable to go to the actual Feature Request? Or if these are for something else, what is it?
  11. Now that's funny! And I totally agree.
  12. Logitech Media Server is by far the best and most robust music player for PC. If you go this route be sure to install the Material Skin available in the Plugins which puts a skin on LMS that's very similar to the Poweramp interface. LMS is available for just about any OS except Android and iOS. Here's a wiki... Logitech Media Server - Wikipedia
  13. I believe that this is on the consolidated Feature Request list. If Max decides to implement I would hope he'd ask for input on how this would work.
  14. Does your new phone have Playstore access? If so, just buy it again, it's cheap and can be used on any device you own that uses the same playstore id. Money well spent!
